Li Yinsheng transmigrates from Earth to a similar yet different Blue Star. At the start, he participates in a desert island survival variety show as an ordinary person, and then a system activates....
On the morning of the fourteenth day.
"Attention all group members! Attention all group members! Attention all group members!"
The second variable will occur six days later. This time, all team members must participate. It's a team competition variable, and the top three will receive survival supplies from the program team. How exactly? Please prepare yourselves and stay tuned! At this moment, He Jiong's voice came from the drones above each team's shelter.
Once the timing of the second variable was set, it immediately sparked discussion among viewers in the live stream. The barrage of comments surged like a tidal wave, with various speculations weaving together to create a lively scene. As the viewers engaged in heated discussions, the atmosphere in the live stream reached its climax.
"Wow, things are about to change again so soon. The production team is really unpredictable!"
"Everyone involved? What kind of challenge will this be? I can't wait!"
"I hope this time the variables will be more interesting. If there are no variables like finding food and treasure hunting, I want to see how Group A performs, and whether they will still be as dazzling as before."
"In terms of team competition variables, Group E has the best chance of winning first place. Have you noticed that the other groups have had players withdraw due to injuries, but Group E has the most players who haven't withdrawn yet!"
"Upstairs, whether it's a competition, an exam, or anything else, luck plays a big role. As long as Fatty is in Group A, with her luck, first place is a sure thing."
"Yes! Group A will definitely win."
Inside the live stream, fans were filled with endless imagination and anticipation for the upcoming team competition, with various guesses and predictions emerging one after another, as if they could already see the intensity and excitement of that unknown challenge.
Fans of Group A are full of confidence, especially those of Fatty, who firmly believe that Fatty's "lucky aura" will work its magic again, leading Group A to continue its glorious history.
...
Inside the shelter, upon hearing the drone He Jiong's voice, the team members stopped what they were doing and gathered together to discuss. Some frowned, pondering how to deal with the unknown variables; others looked excited, anticipating new challenges; still others looked bewildered, clearly not yet recovered from the shock of the last variable.
"The second variable has arrived? How fast! What kind of challenges do you think the production team will present this time?" This morning, Group A cooked a pot of seafood porridge for breakfast, then mixed some flour, added wild eggs and wild onions, and fried it into egg pancakes.
Paired with steaming hot seafood porridge, the aroma is irresistible.
Group A's breakfast was significantly better than the other groups'.
"If it's a team survival competition on a deserted island, it will probably focus on food, clothing, shelter, and transportation."
The competitions are limited to a few things: building shelters within a time limit, starting fires, weaving or setting traps, fishing at sea, or having the most plants you recognize.
We now have so many supplies, and we're about to build a ship to go deep-sea fishing. We can also continuously obtain food from the outside world, so we won't lack food and drink in the future. As for the next variable, it would be best if we could get first place and win the program's reward. Otherwise, it doesn't matter. The important thing is to participate.
However, our goal is to crush the other groups, deprive them of the program's supplies, starve them, demoralize them, and force them to withdraw from the competition. Then, no one will be competing with us for the championship and prize money.
"Master, Xixi, Yingbao, Yixing, you all need to give it your all in the second, unpredictable team competition! Now that we have this advantage, we can't easily let go of any opportunity to widen the gap," Li Yinsheng said while frying pancakes.
Finally, after a sudden change of topic, the leader, Qianqian, Yingbao, and Yixing were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Haha, Fatty! You've got a really clever plan!" The leader chuckled and patted Li Yinsheng on the shoulder, his eyes sparkling with approval and amusement. "However, I like this attitude. Competition means giving it your all, but you also need to keep a calm mind. After all, the true meaning of survival on a desert island isn't just about winning the game, but also about learning to survive, learning teamwork, and most importantly, enjoying this unique experience."
Not every group was eager to win the championship and obtain the survival supplies from the production team during the second variable. Group C had no hope for this variable and planned to give up and lie low.
After finishing breakfast, Li Yinsheng and the others carried three deck chairs toward the beach.
They placed three deck chairs under the shade of a coconut tree, and then continued cutting down trees to begin building a boat.
They shaved and sanded each piece of wood, then carefully pieced them together and bound them tightly with vines. To make it even sturdier, they also reinforced the inside of the hull with several crossbeams. They also chiseled small holes on the sides of the wood, then shaved wooden latticework, inserted it into the holes, and nailed it in place.
Later, they collected a lot of buoys and white foam and tied them to the bottom of the boat to increase buoyancy. Then they made a simple sail, oars, and anchor. They also made a fish hold in the middle of the boat by inlaying it in, for fishing or spearfishing, and to put the prey inside when they caught it.
To provide sun protection, a simple sunshade was installed on top of the boat.
As time went by, a simple yet sturdy little boat, two meters wide and three meters long, gradually took shape in their hands.
"We need to launch the boat quickly to see if there are any improvements needed and how many people it can carry," Li Xiang said immediately.
"Then, Master, Yixing, and Teacher Li, you three should test the buoyancy and stability of this boat. If there are no problems, the three of you can row directly to the deep sea and try fishing."
"XiXi, YingBao, and I continued knitting and crafting the recliners, aiming to finish six today." Li Yinsheng nodded in agreement.
The three of them readily accepted the fat girl's suggestion. As the leader of the cult and the leader of Yixing, Li Xiang pushed the boat into the sea. He then carefully walked to the side of the boat, gently pushed the hull with his hand to make sure it was stable and not wobbling, before stepping onto it with peace of mind.
Yi Xing and the leader followed closely behind. After paddling around in the shallow water for a few rounds and seeing that there were no problems, they said to Li Yinsheng, who was on the shore, "Fatty, the boat is fine and can carry the weight of three people. Let's go out to the deep sea to fish now."
"Okay, be careful. And bring the harpoon too, you never know when you might need it." So, Li Xiang and Yi Xing each picked up an oar, adjusted the direction of the sail, and the small boat slowly sailed into the deep sea with the breeze and current.
The sea was calm and the visibility was excellent today. The sunlight shone on the sea, making it sparkle and creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.
Seagulls soar between the sea and the sky, occasionally swooping down to skim across the surface of the water, leaving behind a streak of silver light before quickly taking off again, leaving behind a few clear cries that add a touch of life and vitality to the tranquil sea.
