She hadn't gone far when she heard a buzzing sound; several giant bees had flown over. They were the size of basketballs, their stingers gleaming coldly. Jiang An quickly raised her shield to defend herself, but the bees launched wave after wave of attacks, and she could only dodge and look for an opportunity to counterattack.
Taking advantage of the moment a bee paused as it swooped in, Jiang An swiftly swung her machete, precisely severing its head. Seeing this, the remaining bees angrily swarmed towards her. Just then, Jiang An spotted a narrow passage nearby; without hesitation, she squeezed through it.
At the end of the passage lay a wide-open space, in the center of which was a large vein of ore emitting a ghostly glow. Just as Jiang An was overjoyed, a tall monster covered in sharp spikes emerged from behind the vein, letting out a deafening roar; a fierce battle seemed inevitable. Jiang An gripped her weapon tightly, her eyes fixed on the spiked monster before her. The monster roared and charged at her with incredible speed. Jiang An rolled to the left, narrowly dodging the attack, and simultaneously swung her sword, striking the monster's leg, but only leaving a shallow mark.
"This guy's tough as nails!" Jiang An thought to himself, feeling a bit dreadful. The monster turned and pounced again, but this time Jiang An seized the opportunity and threw his spear. The spear pierced straight into the monster's shoulder, causing it to flinch in pain.
Jiang An pressed his advantage, drawing his crossbow and firing several arrows at the monster. The monster swung its arms to defend itself, deflecting the arrows. Just when Jiang An thought the attack had failed, he suddenly noticed that one of the monster's eyes had been struck, and black blood was flowing out.
The monster rampaged wildly, and Jiang An used the surrounding terrain to dodge. She saw several glittering pieces of ore on the ground and had an idea. She picked up the ore and threw it at the monster's other eye, blinding it completely.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jiang An rushed towards the mine and quickly collected some ore, stuffing it into her backpack. The monster, having lost its target, was still blindly stumbling around. Jiang An quietly bypassed the monster and retreated from the cave along the same path. Knowing she couldn't linger there, she hurriedly returned to the beach, boarded her boat, and sailed away from the island to continue her adventure. Shortly after Jiang An sailed away from the island, a sudden gale arose at sea. Waves surged in like small mountains, violently rocking her boat. "Not good!" Jiang An struggled to stabilize the boat, but the storm grew increasingly fierce.
Suddenly, a huge wave crashed in, breaking the oar. Jiang An was frantic. She quickly checked her backpack, found spare materials, and tried to make repairs. While she was busy, she noticed a faint outline appearing on the horizon, like a larger ship.
The ship drew closer; it was a pirate ship. The pirates glared menacingly at Jiang An, shouting that they would plunder her supplies. Jiang An gripped her weapon tightly, showing no fear. The pirates swarmed onto her ship, and Jiang An used her agility to weave through the enemy ranks, her water-splitting blade flashing incessantly.
She first wounded a few pirates, but their numbers were overwhelming. Just as she was starting to struggle, she remembered that she had a basic bow and arrow blueprint in her backpack, from which she could make a simple bow. She quickly assembled the bow, nocked an arrow, and shot it through the shoulder of the leader of the pirates. The pirates, intimidated by her imposing presence, hesitated to advance.
Taking advantage of the situation, Jiang An threw out a smoke bomb (which she had made earlier), repaired the oars under the cover of smoke, and then rowed away. The pirates, unable to find their way, could only watch helplessly as she sailed away. Jiang An breathed a sigh of relief and continued her journey into the unknown seas. After several days of sailing, she discovered that the ship's propulsion system had malfunctioned. She had to dock at a deserted island for repairs. The island seemed peaceful, but Jiang An dared not let her guard down.
While searching for usable parts on the island, she discovered a dilapidated mechanical device. Upon closer inspection, she was delighted to find that some parts could be used to repair the ship. However, during the disassembly process, she triggered a mechanism, and a group of mechanical golems surrounded her.
These puppets moved stiffly, but their attack power was not to be underestimated. Jiang An used the surrounding trees and terrain to maneuver around the puppets, and she discovered that their weakness lay in the energy source behind them. So, while dodging their attacks, she looked for an opportunity to destroy the puppets' energy source.
After a fierce battle, Jiang An successfully defeated all the puppets and obtained the necessary parts. She repaired the ship and set sail again. During the rest of her voyage, she encountered a mysterious whirlpool, but with her composure and experience, she skillfully escaped its pull and continued her exploration into the unknown.
30 kg (Excellent grade), 10 snake skins (Excellent grade), 50 g viper venom. On the vast, boundless sea, amidst surging waves, a brave girl is engaged in a thrilling hunt with a ferocious shark. Holding a sharp harpoon, the girl's eyes are fixed firmly on the shark. The shark, its jaws wide open, lunges at her. Undeterred, the girl nimbly dodges the shark's attacks while searching for an opportunity to counterattack. Seizing her chance, she forcefully thrusts the harpoon into the shark's back. Wounded, the shark attacks even more frantically, but the girl, with her strong will and excellent swimming skills, repeatedly evades its attacks. However, just when she thinks she is safe, a raft appears on the surface. Standing on the raft are several menacing-looking people, armed with weapons; they are clearly there to rob her.
A wave of fear washed over the girl, but she did not flinch. She gripped the harpoon tightly, ready to fight the enemy to the death.
The enemies drew near, their shouts echoing in the sea breeze. The girl took a deep breath and swam with all her might towards the raft. As she approached, she suddenly thrust her harpoon at one of the enemies. The enemy screamed and fell into the sea, and the others, seeing this, pounced on the girl.
The girl skillfully dodged the enemy's attacks while continuously retaliating with her harpoon. Filled with anger and courage, she knew she couldn't let these bandits succeed.
After a fierce battle, the girl finally defeated all her enemies. Exhausted, she sat on the raft, a victorious smile on her face. She knew she had not only defeated the enemy, but also conquered her own fear.
The raft drifted slowly into the distance, and the girl's gaze was drawn to the scene deep in the sea. She curiously peered out and saw a group of colorful fish darting and playing among the coral reefs, their scales shimmering with a faint light, as if celebrating the girl's victory.
Looking deeper in, the girl was astonished to discover an ancient shipwreck. The hull was badly eroded by the sea, but its former glory was still evident. The girl imagined the adventures this ship had experienced over the years, and a sense of awe welled up within her.
Suddenly, a giant octopus swam past the shipwreck. Its tentacles twitched, as if demonstrating its power to the girl. The girl was speechless with awe at the magnificent sight; she watched silently as the octopus disappeared into the dark depths of the sea.
The girl continued swimming forward, filled with curiosity and anticipation. Just then, she heard a faint cry. Looking in the direction of the sound, she saw a small whale. The little whale seemed lost and looked somewhat helpless.
The girl decided to help the little whale find its way home. She swam to its side and gently comforted it. The little whale sensed the girl's kindness and slowly approached her.
The girl and her baby whale swam together on the ocean floor, searching for clues to treasure. Along the way, they encountered many wondrous creatures: colorful corals, adorable little seahorses, and mysterious schools of deep-sea fish.
Finally, in a hidden cave, the girl discovered the treasure. The treasure shone brightly, filled with precious gems and pearls. The girl and the little whale cheered excitedly.
The girl looked at the little whale gratefully, knowing that without its companionship, she might not have found the treasure. The little whale returned the girl's gaze with gentle eyes, as if to say, "Thank you, my friend."
Filled with a bountiful harvest, the girl and the little whale left the seabed and returned to the world of light. This wondrous experience will forever remain in the girl's heart, becoming one of the most precious memories of her life.
In this mysterious underwater world, the girl experienced the wonder and beauty of nature. She understood that the battles she had endured were only a small part of her life, and that countless unknowns awaited her exploration. Filled with anticipation for the future, the girl continued her journey.
The girl paddled her raft forward and soon saw a small island appearing and disappearing in the distance. The island was lush with green trees, seemingly teeming with endless life. She paddled vigorously towards the island and, upon reaching the shore, discovered it was covered with strangely shaped fruits. She carefully tasted one; it was sweet and sour, and after eating it, she felt much more energetic.
As she explored the island, she suddenly heard a melodious flute tune. Following the sound, she saw a young boy sitting on a large rock, playing the flute. The boy had dark skin and bright, piercing eyes. It turned out that the boy was the guardian of this island, which hid many secrets, and those special fruits were one of them. Outsiders who accidentally ate certain fruits would go mad, but the girl had accidentally eaten a beneficial one.
