After Jiang An finished tidying up, she glanced at the clock on the wall and realized it was already past nine o'clock.
Jiang An gently called out, "Little turtle, little mouse, stop playing! Look at the time, it's getting late. Come and eat some fruit, then we'll go to bed! We still have to explore tonight."
As soon as she finished speaking, she skillfully took out a top-grade fruit she had won at the auction that day from her storage ring—a huge watermelon weighing about 7 kilograms.
Jiang An placed the watermelon directly on the cutting board, then, holding a sharp fruit knife, with a few swift strokes, the watermelon rind and the bright red, juicy flesh were instantly split in two.
Next, Jiang An skillfully cut the watermelon flesh into even pieces and placed them into three small, exquisite bowls.
After completing these preparations, Jiang An and his two friends sat down on the soft, comfortable sofa, each holding a bowl full of sweet watermelon chunks, and began to enjoy the watermelon with great satisfaction.
After enjoying this delicious extra meal, Jiang An did not stop there.
She stood up, reached into her storage ring and took out the Dragon-Subduing Blade. Taking a deep breath, she began to practice her swordsmanship with complete concentration.
Once, twice, three times... every move and every style fully demonstrates his superb skills and profound foundation.
After practicing the three sets of sword techniques, Jiang An took a short break before immersing himself in half an hour of combat training.
Sweat gradually soaked through her clothes, but her gaze remained firm and focused.
Finally, all of today's exercise programs are finished.
Jiang An dragged her slightly tired body into the bathroom and quickly did a simple wash.
She then walked briskly back to her bedroom and collapsed onto the bed.
With less than two hours left until midnight, she knew she had to seize the time to rest and recharge so she would have enough energy to explore the mysterious desert world in the dead of night.
On the other side, the two little ones had already curled up in their own warm little nests after finishing their delicious watermelon and drifted off to sleep.
... ... ...
"Ring~~ Ring~~~" A sudden, sharp alarm clock rang out, as if it were shaking the entire room.
The moment Jiang An heard the first ring of the bell, she opened her eyes as if by conditioned reflex.
She knew very well what that voice meant—the time had come, it was time to set off!
The situation in the game world is becoming increasingly unfavorable for players who have not yet reached level 7.
Because their level is not high enough, the benefits they can obtain are greatly reduced, or even negligible.
As the saying goes, if you fall behind one step at a time, you will fall behind every step at a time. If you cannot improve your level as soon as possible, you will soon be left far behind by other players.
The current extreme heat is unbearable, with daytime temperatures making it impossible for people to go outside.
Players can only embark on their journey at night.
However, the dim light at night severely limits visibility, making it virtually impossible to discover the various resources that originally existed in the vast desert.
And there is another huge problem: safe houses cannot be moved below level 7.
This means that players who haven't reached level 7 can only explore a limited area, but all the surrounding resources have already been plundered by them time and time again, making it extremely difficult to find any that have slipped through the net.
Left with no other choice, these players could only rely on the treasure chests dropped by hunting monsters and the items obtained from dismantling them to barely make ends meet for their daily lives.
As Jiang An rubbed her still sleepy and bloodshot eyes, she dragged her heavy steps slowly into the bathroom.
I turned on the tap and let the cool water flow down, splashing on my face, trying to wake myself up completely.
After washing up, Jiang An carefully took all necessary protective measures to ensure that her exposed skin was completely safe.
Then, she turned and went back to the bedroom, gently scooped up the two little ones who were still fast asleep, and prepared to leave.
One of the little turtles is now small and delicate, only about the size of an adult's palm. Jiang An put it directly into his pocket, and said he would wake it up when they encountered danger and needed to fight.
