Chapter 221: Survival at Sea Day 5 (1) Eating...

With this strange thought in mind, Yu Miaomiao fell asleep holding the soft and furry little baby.

The fire in the house crackled, and in the dim light, Xiaoguai's incessant gurgling could be heard.

“Ring, ring, ring—”

A burst of whistle sounded, piercing through the little darling beside him like a pig's grunt.

"Meow?"

Xiaoguai somersaulted off the bed, and Yu Miaomiao picked up the trident and ran out.

The sun is shining brightly outside, and the sparkling waves are rolling, like a beautiful landscape painting.

The boat barely moved, the waves were not big, and layers of waves and shrimp balls hit her float.

What meets the eye are shrimp balls rolled into a ball, the bright red spheres look like a boat full of rambutans.

Yu Miaomiao used the tortoise breathing technique to hide his breath and did not attract the monster's attention.

These monsters, called shrimp balls, rolled back and forth on the floats under the system's settings, rubbing their thorny shells against the wooden floor.

Looking around, there are at least dozens of spheres of the same size. The damage of each one is not great, but as the number increases, the durability of the float decreases.

After dealing with this wave, she will have to repair the durability of the float.

Living monsters cannot be put directly into the backpack, they can only be killed.

I heard that weapons like shovels can kill them directly, but in order to kill them with enough force, the floats they have damaged will also be smashed to pieces.

Large mantis shrimp can be killed by breaking their claws, but what about such small round shrimp balls?

By the way, these marine creatures will become soft when they are out of sea water.

The boat wasn't rocking much, but because there were no guardrails, the seawater was still able to soak into her floats, and today's weather didn't seem to be able to dehydrate them.

[Survival at Sea Day 5 06:33 Cloudy]

In a blink of an eye, a fog covered half of the sky. It was not the dark clouds seen before, but a gray area.

The waves remained the same, but there were more rambutans on the float.

Xiaoguai stood at the door, looked up at her, whimpered twice, and went back into the house.

Even the warlike zebra cats were unwilling to fight, but Yu Miaomiao couldn't pretend that these little monsters didn't exist.

With the addition of a gyro stabilizer, the waves did not tilt the ship much, but they could not sweep away the monster that was already destroying her ship.

The quantity is large, and it is impossible to use pigweed.

Then we can only...

Yu Miaomiao tried and found that she could hold the iron pillar and move steadily while continuing to maintain the turtle breathing state. It turned out that daily practice was useful.

If they are not discovered, these monsters will not attack actively.

She bent down and threw down the fishing net. She had practiced this action before, but it didn't scare the shrimps.

After catching a dozen or so shrimp balls with the net, he dragged a bag of red shrimp balls to the outdoor stove on the side and lit it.

The firelight dispersed some of the surrounding fog. Yu Miaomiao took out a pair of big scissors and slowly picked up the shrimp balls in the bag one by one and threw them into the big stove.

"babble"

After the first shrimp ball was thrown in, a strange sound was heard, and then one after another sounds came from the stove.

Every shrimp ball that enters the stove changes from bright red to bluish-white, and then to a cooked red. As the stove burns, the rambutan-shaped shrimp ball explodes, splashing out an unpleasant fishy smell. After burning for a few minutes, the aroma of seafood emerges.

As she continued to toss and burn, the smell from the fire became stronger and stronger, attracting Xiaoguai in the house.

“Meow—”

Xiaoguai leaned over to the stove, trying to use his claws to scoop out the cooked shrimp balls.

As soon as she smelled the fragrance, she knew it was out. Yu Miaomiao stopped her helplessly, "Wait for me to cut it out for you to eat."

Sit down nicely, little darling.

After throwing away ten of them, and waiting until they were all dead, Yu Miaomiao took them out with scissors, put them on a tray, and used a meat cleaver to dismember them one by one.

[Successfully triggered the Lucky trait, decomposing it to obtain 2 pieces of shrimp meat, which have been stored in the system warehouse.]

【...】

Even if luck is triggered, what is decomposed is still minced shrimp meat.

After collecting ten, she can directly combine them into a shrimp in her backpack. After the combination, she puts the extra shrimp directly into the automatic cooking pot and roasts it.

Because all her movements were very slow and her breath remained steady, the shrimp balls did not attack her. Instead, they became food in the cooking pot one by one.

Shrimp shells will become soft when exposed to the sun. Now that the sun is gone, she thought of the stove. Now the sea is helping her deliver the shrimp meat.

After grilling more than ten portions of shrimp, the "rambutan" on the float was almost eaten up and all went into Xiaoguai's stomach.

As expected, the simplest cooking is its favorite.

Perhaps after seeing her fighting method, the shrimps knew that the attack was futile, or that this was all they had left in this sea area.

The red monsters on the surrounding sea surface ate fewer and fewer, and the float was saved, so Yu Miaomiao had time to check today's news.

"Hua Bie: Good morning, mustard grass from the Crystal Palace, do you need any more?"

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Good morning, I need it, don't you keep it for yourself to make level 6 food?"

"Hua Bie: I haven't encountered any shrimp monsters here yet, so I don't have any shrimp meat. If you need it, take it and use it first."

The first message was sent at around four in the morning, and now he replied within seconds. Doesn’t he sleep?

Yu Miaomiao glanced at the positions of the three people and found that they were all moving towards her. She immediately sent a start message to Chenchen, and then increased the power of her boat to maximum and headed towards Huabie.

Now that we know about the purge plan, we really need to reunite quickly.

Then she created a new group chat and after thinking for a long time, she decided to name the group "Team" as she was not good at naming. Currently, there were Meow Meow Buqueshui, Pangpang and Yingyingguai in the group.

Several of us are about to meet, and all future contacts will be in this group.

Opening the leaderboard, there are still only two teams on the cross-server list. There are still five days left for settlement, and she must fight for the first place.

In the adventure site list, Huabie is now ranked first with a progress of 8%.

Huabie has been there three times, but still hasn't been able to break through 10%. Is this adventure area really that difficult?

The expedition rankings already have other names on the list, including Ten Thousand Watts.

Hey, why is there one person's name missing from the beta server list?

Yu Miaomiao switched to the temporary dialog box and saw the last message sent by that person.

"No matter how old you are, you're still strong: I've killed 10,000 Watts for you. Now you can tell me about the expedition. Don't say you didn't go, so you don't know. Hua Bie is number one. You don't know, but he does."

So he was willing to continue doing this. Besides wanting to kill Wang Bingliang himself, he was also impressed by Hua Bie's ability. He didn't expect that in the eyes of others, he and Hua Bie had been tied together.

But why is this person's name not on the list? Could it be...

After replying a message, she received a system reply indicating that the other party was offline.

Dead.

Chen Qiang said he killed Wang Bingliang, but Wang Bingliang's nickname is still on the list, but his own is gone. How strange.

Your Lie in April should know.

Yu Miaomiao didn't rush to ask, but turned her gaze to another person, Iris.

Iris: I wanted to die, but the system wouldn't let me. Someone saved me. Since I'm not destined to die, I'm telling you this so you have time to prepare. Survival at sea lasts for 20 days, followed by 10 days of snow, 5 days of polar night, and then daily shifts in natural disasters like volcanoes and acid rain. The leaderboard settlement times remain the same, so the pace at which we receive Restoring World Order cards remains the same. If we can't survive these constantly changing climates, we won't be able to collect all the cards. Even if we persevere and collect them, by the time we return, my partner will be dead, so everything is meaningless. I'm giving up and won't be searching for new information anymore.

It turned out that Iris was so discouraged because she got this information.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: What technologies have you mastered so far? I currently have a small snow melting machine, a small hot spring, etc. If you need it, you can continue to use slime to replace me."

Yu Miaomiao didn't know whether the other party used the invisible mode when saying these things, so she had to send out the crafts she had collected in advance, just to tell Iris that no matter how many seasons there were in the future, there would always be crafts to deal with future life, and there was no need to give up now.

Unexpectedly, Iris responded so quickly this time.

"Iris: What's the point of doing all this? I know you want to remind me that we have the ability and strength to continue exploring, digging for treasure, and surviving, but what's the point of just living in this broken world? My partner can't wait."

Now Yu Miaomiao finally understood. Iris knew too much, which was why she felt that hope was slim and she couldn't go back, so she didn't want to try anymore.

For some reason, she felt a little regretful.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Have you contacted people from other servers?"

"Iris: I've heard that the seriously ill, the elderly, and children rarely come to the apocalypse, but who knows what might happen in the future. What's wrong? Do you know something new?"

Yu Miaomiao didn't know how many times the other party had used the invisible mode out of 10 times, but Iris must have tried to erase some traces while searching for important information. Since she had done so much, she couldn't just give up.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: While you're trying to dig up the truth, you might be overlooking some more important information. We survived in the desert for 30 days, but to outsiders, it might just be a few hours. If you don't believe me, you can ask other survivors outside the server."

"Iris: I... I've always wanted to use it, but... I see. So that's how it is. I was really too caught up in the time set by the system. I asked others for all sorts of information about my partner. I knew that someone who was sick would most likely not come, and I thought there was no chance of reuniting with him. Unexpectedly, I forgot to ask for the most basic time information. I'm really stupid."

Yu Miaomiao could sense the other party's panic or excitement from these words, just like she used to be, always immersed in her own world. She said she wanted to complete the prank, but then felt that she could give up. She said she wanted to go back, but she couldn't resist A Pi's persuasion, because her goal was only what she could see in front of her, but she ignored the things around her.

She needs allies to move forward together, where is Iris?

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Have you unlocked the team function? I have formed a team and can invite 5 friends on the same server to join. If you haven't unlocked it yet and haven't found suitable teammates, would you consider joining us? "

Iris has mastered hidden functions and is also on the major leaderboards. With her joining, the team's points are guaranteed. This is a decision that Yu Miaomiao has thought about for a long time.

"Iris: Do you want to add me as a friend?"

In Desert Survival, you can avoid exposing your information by not adding friends, but in the Sea World, your game nickname on the outer wall can be seen by passers-by from several kilometers away, so the geographical location is not absolutely safe.

Yu Miaomiao felt that Iris was a trustworthy comrade, so she could add him as a friend and form a team.

However, because Iris has been in the apocalypse for too long, she has set a single goal in her mind. With this single goal, she can fight for it desperately, but she can also give up easily.

Not only did she need such a powerful ally, she also didn't want to see Iris become misled by the system and lose her mind like herself.

If Xiaoguai hadn't been by her side at the time, she might have really been devastated. While stroking the cat's head, Yu Miaomiao sent a new message.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Well, if you have any concerns, you can reconsider it."

As soon as she sent this sentence, she received a friend request the next second, and she immediately clicked to accept it.

Suddenly, one more person appeared in Yu Miaomiao's friend list, and she couldn't help but sigh at Iris's straightforwardness.

The invitation of Iris was also the result of her discussion with several people, so when she saw that Iris was willing to agree, Yu Miaomiao immediately pulled Iris into the team and group chat, leaving her no chance to regret.
