It was the first time that Qianyue encountered someone who kindly reminded her to "take a detour".
She asked calmly, "What happened to that uninhabited island ahead?"
The male player hesitated, "It's very dangerous, it's best not to go."
Seeing that he refused to tell the truth, Qianyue simply turned around and pushed the bamboo pole, and the bamboo raft immediately floated forward several meters.
"Hey! Wait a minute!"
The man immediately became nervous upon seeing this, and hurriedly caught up and jumped directly onto Qianyue's raft.
Qianyue seemed to have eyes on her back. She turned the bamboo pole in her hand and pointed it at the opponent's face with a "swish".
The latter was so frightened that he staggered and almost fell off the bamboo raft.
“What are you doing!”
Qianyue said with a cold face: "If you have something to say, please say it. If not, I have something else to do."
Since the other party hadn't done anything to deserve a beating, Qianyue's words were already quite polite.
However, the other party didn't think so and complained: "You are such a person, why don't you listen to my advice..."
After waiting for a second or two, seeing that Qianyue had no intention of putting away the bamboo pole, the man could only carefully put the bamboo pole aside and said with a pout:
"Alright, alright. I just can't bear to give away such a nice bamboo raft like yours to those people for nothing."
Qianyue relaxed her grip, and the end of the bamboo pole sank back into the water. "What do you mean?"
The man avoided the question and said, "Let's make a deal. I'll tell you, will you sell me the raft?"
Seeing Qianyue's expression change, the man quickly changed his tone: "Or maybe you can teach me how to make a raft."
Qianyue: That will take forever to teach you.
She glanced at the other person's incredibly rough bamboo raft, paused, and said, "I can't teach you. It's too much trouble. At most, I can ask you some questions."
Although in Qianyue's eyes, there were problems everywhere on the bamboo raft.
The male player agreed without giving it much thought: "That's fine."
"My last name is Chen, you can just call me Chen Er."
He simply put away his raft and sat cross-legged on Qianyue's bamboo raft, lowering his voice and saying mysteriously:
"Your island must have been flooded very early, right?"
Qianyue:?
Why are you asking this?
She replied vaguely, "It's okay, just these past few days."
"These few days" was a function word. However, only five days had passed in the dungeon so far, so when Chen Er heard this sentence, it became "The island was submerged not long after entering the dungeon."
He immediately showed an expression of "I understand", "Then you must not know that there are chaos on the uninhabited islands everywhere right now."
"Chaos?" Qianyue suddenly became interested. "How is it chaotic?"
Among all the archipelagos she had seen, she had never heard of any island being in chaos.
Chen Er sighed: "That's a lot."
He pulled Qianyue aside to talk to her in detail, and from him Qianyue learned that their archipelago was a transportation fortress, with many players coming and going these days, so the island was well-informed.
"Take what I just heard yesterday, for example. Some archipelagos appear to be rich in resources. But in reality, outsiders who want to enter must first pay a toll. If they don't pay, they are not allowed to enter the island to trade."
"You can go to some islands freely, but you can't fight or compete for resources on uninhabited islands."
Qianyue: "Isn't this normal?"
If you go to someone else's archipelago and try to share supplies that they don't even have enough for themselves, you'll be kicked out.
Chen Er exclaimed, "Just listen to me first. Do you know why no one dares to fight? I heard it's because there's a local tyrant protecting us!"
"Every transaction on that island requires a commission, which is basically protection money!"
"Forget fighting, even if you just make a slightly louder argument, as long as you bother someone, I'll immediately hit you with a bamboo stick and beat you to a pulp!"
Qianyue: “…”
Why did this latter situation sound so familiar? Had she heard this somewhere before?
Why did it become like this that she became a local tycoon?
Qianyue really wanted to shake the other person's shoulders to clear the water from his head and tell him that rumors are not credible!
But the other party looked as if he had told some shocking secret, which made Qianyue feel mixed emotions.
Chen Er didn't notice her change of mood and continued gossiping, "There are also archipelagos where the uninhabited islands have become arenas. Every day when the crops are ripe or there are airdrops, the scene is just...tsk tsk..."
Before he could finish his words, a familiar roar suddenly came from above his head.
The huge propeller kept spinning in the air, and Chen Er's face suddenly changed.
"It's urgent! I won't talk to you anymore! Anyway, leave now!"
Qianyue: What?
Qianyue was completely bewildered, but the other party dove into the water, as nimbly as a swimming fish. In a few seconds, he released his bamboo raft and it drifted quickly in the water.
At the same time, there was a commotion on the surrounding cliffs.
Qianyue turned around subconsciously, and saw a lot of people suddenly rushing out from the islands on both sides, almost using all their strength to rush in the same direction!
"I'm sure to get this airdrop!"
"Shame on you! You already won it two days ago! You should just withdraw from the competition!"
"It's all about ability, why should I quit? Your island has such a good harvest, why don't you quit?!"
"If you keep talking nonsense, those people will take away all your stuff!"
That group of people? Which group of people?
Qianyue was completely confused.
In an instant, the sounds of people falling into the water were everywhere, and many people even jumped directly from the cliff several meters high.
Qianyue: “…” Excuse me.
If the cliffs hadn't been covered in vines, perhaps this group of people could have staged a Tarzan scene.
There are almost no resource points in this archipelago. I guess everyone is in a state of resource scarcity. When they heard that an airdrop was coming, they immediately felt excited.
Qianyue didn't want to join in the fun, so she turned around and prepared to leave.
Just at this moment, there were a few splashing sounds nearby, and several people emerged from the water and climbed onto her boat at the same time.
One of the men with deep features smiled and said, "Look what I found? A nice boat."
The other dwarf pushed him directly and said, "Get out of the way! I saw it first!"
Just as he finished speaking, another female player climbed up the edge of the bamboo raft and sneered, "Sorry everyone, I'm still waiting to drive this boat to grab the airdrop."
The man who had first boarded the ship sighed and said, "I'm so sorry, ma'am. I felt the same way."
"Then you have no hope--" the dwarf sneered and started to attack directly!
The three of them immediately started fighting.
Ignored Qianyue: "..."
She sat cross-legged at the front of the raft, one hand resting on her leg supporting her chin, and found it a little funny.
"I say, is it appropriate for you to discuss who will take over my ship right in front of me?"
The three of them were fighting fiercely and had no time to pay attention to her. Because in the eyes of these three people, Qianyue was not worth mentioning at all.
They had just seen that guy Chen Er boarded her boat to test her, but the two of them didn't fight at all.
Although no one knew why Chen Er gave up halfway, for those people who had no boat, it was impossible for them to give up this big fat sheep that was delivered to their mouths!
The fat sheep Qianyue glanced at the location of the airdrop, and then looked at the three people who were fighting fiercely.
She propped up her head in boredom, pulled a small white flower from the vine and played with it in her hand.
"Just a reminder, the airdrop is expected to land in a few minutes. If you keep fighting, it will probably be snatched away by others."
Instead of arguing here, you might as well jump into the water and swim over.
Qianyue glanced at the water. Although she couldn't see clearly, she could sense that there must be big fish underwater.
Someone hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and at this moment, his opponent suddenly pushed him, and the man bumped into the bamboo house with a "bang", and the house immediately tilted!
Qianyue paused while twisting the flowers, and the smile on her face slowly faded.
The fight between the other two people had not stopped yet, and the entire bamboo raft was shaking and even began to make a "creaking" sound.
The male player kicked the dwarf off the boat and sneered, "Give up early. You are no match for me."
He didn't notice that the moment he kicked the man into the water, the dwarf woke up.
The dwarf subconsciously tried to flap his arms, but at this time his mouth and nose were already immersed in the water, and the sudden drowning made it impossible for him to make any sound!
The faint sound of bubbles was barely audible under the turbulence of the bamboo raft.
At the same time, a group of black shadows under the water quickly gathered towards him, and after a few seconds the dwarf's figure sank into the water and disappeared.
But the people on the boat were in the middle of a tense standoff and didn't notice anything was wrong.
The female player was equally unyielding after being provoked: "Hmph, stop talking nonsense and come on!"
She held a dagger in her hand and was about to stab the man, but she suddenly heard a "whoosh" sound beside her ear.
The man who was so confident in fighting her just now actually fell straight towards her!
Female player: ? ? !!
However, her astonishment lasted only a moment, and she subconsciously dodged the person who was hitting her. But what she didn't expect was that almost in the next second, a bamboo shoot came directly towards her, so fast that she could almost see its shadow!
The female player dodged the falling person, but she couldn't avoid the bamboo. She even accidentally changed her position, and the bamboo hit her in the face.
The female player immediately felt her nose getting hot! The world was spinning!
She was actually beaten to the point of bleeding from the nose!
"A sneak attack?! Are you shameless?"
The female player turned around angrily to look for the person who attacked her, but she didn't expect it to be the woman they had always regarded as a fat sheep.
Without thinking, she said, "You're a woman, don't you know not to hit someone in the face?!"
Qianyue: "You also said it was about beating people."
Isn't this a roundabout way of calling her a non-human?!
The female player immediately became angry, but when her eyes fell on the bamboo in the other person's hand, she paused again.
The woman had just used this incredibly long bamboo to sneak attack them. She knew only too well how powerful the blow was.
——How could this guy be so strong?
Thinking of this, the female player was stunned for a moment, and only then did she have time to look at the other person carefully.
Although the woman in front of him didn't pay much attention to dressing up, she was still pretty and had a good figure, which made people subconsciously label her as frail.
So they didn't take people seriously at first.
But at this moment, the frail woman in their eyes had already put away the bamboo and was casually walking out, lifting the reed curtain. The moment she raised her eyes, her eyes were full of murderous intent.
The female player covered her still bleeding nose with one hand and held the dagger tightly with the other, her voice filled with tension: "What are you going to do!"
"Shouldn't I be the one asking you what you want to do?"
Qianyue sneered, she let go, and the reed curtain behind her fell down completely.
She approached the female player step by step. For a moment, the latter actually felt a strong sense of oppression.
"You can get on my boat without permission."
"It's OK to discuss the ownership of my ship in front of me."
"but--"
Qianyue changed the subject, and before the female player could react, she saw Qianyue suddenly approaching. She subconsciously raised her hand to block, but suddenly felt a pain in her arm!
Her eyes widened. "Wait, my dagger?! How could it be…"
"Sorry, it's my dagger now."
Qianyue quickly took off her backpack and kicked the person into the water, splashing water everywhere.
The dagger made a beautiful knife flower in the air. Qianyue turned her head coldly and stared meaningfully at the male player on the ground.
She slowly uttered the second half of the sentence: "Smashing my things is not allowed."
