The ocean temperature is extremely low at night. If an ordinary person runs out of heat, it means they're going to die.

After several hours of effort.

Li Changge collected a total of twenty fish and several cages of crayfish. He even caught two pieces of glass from a passing resource bucket.

[Good Grade Item: Glass]

[Explanation: Glass will play an important role in the third stage of the raft; survivors are advised to handle it with caution.]

Given its important role in the third-stage raft, it seems that glass is a rare material.

Come to think of it, this is the first time Li Changge has collected this kind of material in the past two days.

Li Changge glanced at his haul.

[20 wood, 2 glass, 4 ropes, 3 sisal, 10 hard metal sheets]

A lot of materials were used up in the process of repairing the raft and building the barrier, but there are still quite a few left.

Sitting on the raft, Li Changge held a freshly steamed fish in his hand, gazing at the afterglow of the setting sun in the distance.

Suddenly he felt that this kind of life was very comfortable, if it weren't for the dangers of the ocean.

While eating fish, Li Changge opened the chat channel. Judging from the content, it seemed to be very appetizing.

"Unbelievable, unbelievable, I actually saw a small island today."

"Holy crap? What's going on? There are even islands?"

"I don't know. As my raft drifted along, I only saw the outlines of islands in the distance."

"Tch, you're wasting my time. Many survivors have been killed by your vague and ambiguous information."

"An island?" Li Changge spat out a fish bone, his eyes thoughtful.

"Perhaps what he said is true, but it's also possible that he's just trying to attract attention. Nevertheless, this kind of news is still very important, and I should keep it in mind." Li Changge silently made a note of this message.

He then looked around again and found nothing interesting, so he switched to the trading channel.

"I'm so hungry, I'm about to die, I'd give up everything I own for a little food."

"Please save us! I have some good-grade items, I just want some dry food and fresh water in return."

"I have five metal pieces and I request a cup of fresh water in exchange. I am dying of thirst."

well.

Seeing the lamentations filling the trading channel, Li Changge sighed.

In fact, everyone's raft chat channel is in the crafting section, and common items, such as barbecue grills and water purifiers, are very easy to craft.

However, many people are still complaining and suffering from hunger and thirst, which indicates that this group of people lacks practical skills or does not have enough materials.

If it's the latter, that's fine, but the problem is that the vast majority are the former.

They're all a spoiled bunch.

But this has nothing to do with Li Changge. He's just scouting the area now; he'll definitely use the trading channel later.

Now that he has finished eating the fish and drinking his fill of water, he closes the chat channel.

"Holy shit."

As soon as Li Changge stood up, he saw a shark gnawing at a wooden plank in front of him, its sharp teeth stained with blood.

Looks like this guy has taken down quite a few people.

Fortunately, there was a barrier, so the shark could only gnaw on the outer wooden planks, and Li Changge was not worried.

"Hmph, once I crack open and wake up, I'll eat you up," Li Changge said viciously.

“But this isn’t a solution either. We can’t keep relying on cracking, can we?” Li Changge thought for a moment, his consciousness sinking into his mind, and he saw the weapon category in the manufacturing section.

[Standard Harpoon: Capable of catching small fish, but ineffective against large animals]

[Good-grade crossbow: A ranged weapon capable of taking down medium-sized animals, such as tiger sharks, but ineffective against large animals.]

[Elite-grade spear: A melee weapon capable of inflicting fatal damage on large fish]

"You're the one." Li Changge's eyes lit up, and he clicked on it immediately.

[Elite-grade spear]

【Function: Despite its rusty surface, its unique barbed design allows you to inflict fatal bleeding damage on large animals】

[Disadvantages: The barb design is flawed; each time blood is drawn, one barb is worn down, and currently only three barbs remain on the spear's surface.]

【Materials needed: 5 pieces of wood, 10 pieces of hard metal, 5 large metal pieces】

“I only have the first two types, it seems I need to continue collecting materials.” Li Changge glanced at the sky.

Well, another day has passed.

Fortunately, today's harvest was significantly better than yesterday's.

Li Changge no longer cared about the shark; with its size, trying to smash through the raft's shield was simply a pipe dream.

So, Li Changge then began to clean the three fish and crayfish and put them into the steamer.

The steamer emitted a white glow under the night sky, and Li Changge felt a sense of security as he felt the steam rising from it.

He took out the two wooden cups he had made, placed one under the water purifier, and took some fresh water.

Pick up another one, step over the plank, walk to the edge of the raft, scoop up a cup of seawater, then walk back and put the seawater into the inlet above the water purifier.

A glass of fresh water, and a glass of seawater undergoing purification.

Li Changge nodded in satisfaction.

Safety measures were in place, and water and food were ready. Li Changge suddenly felt a little empty.

In fact, the epic-level water purifier has a water storage device, but Li Changge doesn't have the right tools right now, and it's getting late, so there's no way to fill the water storage device.

Therefore, it has to be put on hold for now.

The last rays of the sun were completely swallowed by the night, and the nighttime era of the ocean had arrived.

The ocean is more dangerous at night than during the day, as some nocturnal creatures begin to hunt, their prey ranging from small fish and shrimp to survivors.

Cold, hunger, fear, despair and other emotions filled the hearts of the survivors.

Some mentally fragile survivors have probably already perished in the ocean.

But none of this was within Li Changge's consideration.

Having already eaten and drunk his fill, he lay on the raft, enjoying the light emanating from the steamer, appearing quite at ease.

"This might be the most peaceful time I've had in the last two days," Li Changge said, closing his eyes and humming a little tune.

That's truly satisfying.

the next day.

Li Changge woke up as soon as the sun rose.

After taking ten minutes to settle his personal matters, he sat blankly on the raft.

"I'm out of supplies, my old fishing hook is broken, and I can't even gather enough materials for self-defense tools. What should I do?" Li Changge scratched his head, looking a little lost.

With no worries about food and drink at sea and no immediate concerns about safety, Li Changge believed he had already achieved the ultimate survival strategy.

But to his utter surprise, no resource barrels floated past within a 30-meter radius of him.

The entire ocean is on full display.

"What should we do?"
