Chapter 759 The Beginning of Winter (8)
[Yi Ling]: "Then I'll wait for your good news."
After resolving the fertilizer issue, Shu Lingyi could turn around and discuss with everyone about going to the sea to mine materials.
Xiao Ai has given so much advice. She must work harder and stock up on food. Considering that there will be more waves of monsters, weapons are also essential.
The highest-level monster she can encounter now is the ninth-level Xuantian Whale that she met during the Frost Descent.
In the coming solar terms, there will definitely be level nine monsters running everywhere. This is something that will happen sooner or later and is inevitable.
Players do not have that many materials dropped by level nine monsters to make weapons. The damage of lower-level materials is much worse, and the speed at which they are scrapped is far beyond imagination.
"Hey, I thought I could enjoy a leisurely life on the first day."
In the afternoon, Shu Lingyi and Zhong Qingwei naturally continued to work as a team, and there was no change in the sea area from before.
Except when diving, the number of level 6 and 7 monsters encountered decreased, and the number of level 8 monsters increased.
But we have been dealing with it for a month. As long as the players cooperate well and two or three submarine players work together, the eighth-level monster can be dealt with easily.
Zhong Qingwei has also taken action, selling fishtail spines to players in Shuying Territory, telling them that adding some toxins into them will increase the damage.
The players who knew about this all gave Zhong Qingwei a thumbs up: "As expected of the son of Boss Zhong Xiu, he is so fierce."
The last afternoon was spent searching for monsters in the sea. With the cooperation of the two, all the level 8 monsters had to shake their tails and run away when they saw them.
We were so busy that we didn't even get ready to return home until after nine o'clock in the evening.
[Lin Lanlan]: "After it gets dark, I lose the sense of how time changes."
[Cang Sheng Taegeuk]: "But the harvest is very rich. With the fish tail thorn, I am more confident in fighting against high-level monsters."
[Xu Xu Qing Feng]: "That's not true. Boss Zhong is the battle ceiling of our territory!"
[Yubai]: "His mother is the ceiling of our territory's combat power!"
[The Old Man in a Straw Hat and a Boat]: "I can only say that they are worthy of being mother and son, with fighting power inherited from the same lineage. However, Brother Zhong can also make weapons, which is even more powerful."
However, everyone knows that this kind of profession often requires a lot of drawings to support it.
Only by learning enough weapon blueprints and constantly making these weapons to gain enough experience points can you raise your career level to a very high level.
It is impossible for ordinary people to imitate Zhong Qingwei's weapon drawings.
[Donut]: "Tiantian also wants to go to the 001 territory. It's so lively there."
Yu Ding looked at Pan Tiantian's message and felt a little confused for a moment.
Unexpectedly, Shuying replied to the message directly on the public screen and gave him a very good solution.
[Dancing Shadow]: "Bring Tiantian to 001, and let her stay with Qingqing and help out."
Luo Zhiqing's tailor shop is also enviable. She has a number of tool tables and an entire silkworm room where the silkworms are raised to be fat.
Every day I eat and sleep, sleep and eat, and when I have nothing to do, I spin silk like crazy.
[Qing Ben Zhiruo]: "I heard about Tiantian's story. It's okay. Come to my tailor shop. I can help her do some simple work."
Pan Tiantian has never seemed to be very smart. After being rescued by Yu Ding from her biological father who used to treat her as a tool, she has always been very attached to Yu Ding.
Later, Shuying and others spent a long time gradually building up a good trust, and also guided Pan Tiantian little by little, hoping that her intelligence could be smarter.
You don't have to be very smart, just have normal intelligence for your age.
In this way, many dangerous things can be avoided, but unfortunately until now, Pan Tiantian's IQ is still at the level of eleven or twelve years old.
It can’t be said that he is not smart, but it is definitely not in line with his age.
[Half-tailed True Fish]: "I can counsel her every day when I am free. Such a poor child deserves a better life."
[Yubai]: "Tiantian is our district's lucky fish. She is very lucky. It is because of this that her father spared her life."
[Yu Bai]: "Alas, she was spared because of her luck, and because of her luck she became a tool. If it weren't for Yu Ding, she would be so miserable!"
No one can help but feel sad when listening to the story that happened to Pan Tiantian.
Then came pity. Luo Zhiqing herself didn't like to go out very much, so it would be okay to bring a player who could help her.
In this way, Yu Ding received a safe route and followed the players of Territory 001 to their territory.
When we were about to reach the shore, many people were already discussing today's gains, and every player's face was filled with joy.
Even the "daytime" at nine o'clock in the evening does not affect everyone.
[Xiao Liang who loves eating radish]: "I have worked hard all day today and have made 800 night decorations. I will keep 200 for myself and the rest will be sold to the public with limited purchase!"
[Yang Liu Yi Yi]: "Are you going to rob?"
[Lin Lanlan]: "That's right, each person is limited to one copy, and you have to snatch them up. This is when I have to show off my hand speed again!"
[Tian Mozi, who is in mourning]: "Fortunately, I am an in-app purchase player, but if there are any certified older players, you can trade with me."
She is still young, and even if she really endures it, she is much better off than those older uncles and aunts.
[Yan Guilai who loves fried potato chips]: "Xiao Liang upstairs still needs to work harder. This is really too little. Even the donkeys in the production team don't dare to rest like this!"
[Xiao Liang who loves to eat radish]: "Good fellow, you are not a human being, are you?"
A group of people came ashore talking and laughing. The submarines stopped not far from the beach, and then the players got out of the submarines.
As long as you fold up the submarine, you can go back to the territory.
At this moment, extremely brilliant bands of light suddenly appeared in the sky, and pink, purple, blue and green bands of light spread from the sky to the sky of everyone.
Everyone couldn't help but look up and exclaim "Wow" instinctively.
Nature is unpredictable, and this aurora feast has just begun.
The entire sky is painted with the aurora, which is magnificent.
At this time, the tide began to surge and gradually receded. The players were admiring the aurora, and there was a brief silence on the public screen.
Even players in the territory can see this scene.
[Donut]: "Wow, what a beautiful sky!"
Shu Lingyi also followed the main group ashore at this time. Zhong Qingwei stood beside her and said softly: "The aurora is really beautiful."
"Yes, if I can complete the game alive and have the chance to return to Blue Planet, I must go and see the Aurora again."
"Then, when the time comes..." Zhong Qingwei was hesitating about the follow-up words. Before he could really muster up the courage to say it, someone exclaimed.
"Oh no! Someone got swept away!"
"Tiantian!" Yu Ding's outstretched hand was still frozen in mid-air, and the girl's figure had been swept away by the waves!
There were screams everywhere. More than one or two players were swept away by the waves. There were more than a dozen players in total!
Shu Lingyi never expected that such an accident would happen while watching the aurora.
Those players were struggling and screaming at the beginning, but in just a few minutes, their figures could hardly be seen.
"Hurry up and drive the submarine into the sea to rescue people!"
When she shouted, others suddenly reacted. Shu Lingyi and Zhong Qingwei went into the sea first.
But this is a pocket submarine and cannot allow other players to ride on it. Even if it goes into the sea, it will not be able to save the players.
However, it would be good to find the player who was swept away first so that other players can come to the rescue faster.
Shu Lingyi was driving attentively, while Zhong Qingwei was scanning the surroundings sharply, not missing a single place.
"Comrade Yi Yi, there!"
As Zhong Qingwei pointed, Shu Lingyi drove the submarine closer quickly. The player had already started to show extremely dangerous symptoms such as cramps in his hands and feet!
"Comrade Yi Yi, let me out, and then he will get into the submarine. You take him and go first!"
Shu Lingyi did not hesitate much. Zhong Qingwei, who was fully equipped, could easily hold out for more than half an hour in this place.
Zhong Qingwei sent the man into the cabin, and Shu Lingyi quickly drove the submarine back to the shore. This time, she deliberately sent the man to a place a little farther away from the coast.
There were already people on the shore to support them. They took the players away and began to rescue them according to the basic knowledge that Jing Zhao had taught them remotely.
The players are originally strong and healthy, so as long as the rescue measures are not too outrageous, they can basically be saved.
Then Shu Ling drove the submarine again and again to retrieve Zhong Qingwei. By doing so, Shu Ling saved two players.
A total of seventeen players were rescued, but two could not be saved and died.
Everyone felt a sense of fear and didn't even understand what was going on.
[Bian Nuannuan]: "I really didn't pay much attention at the time. I just felt the waves hitting my calves."
[Bian Nuannuan]: "Then I lost my balance for a moment, and the wave swept me away. I had learned to swim a little, but I didn't expect the accident to happen so quickly. The suction of the waves was so strong that I couldn't swim at all, and then I was swept away..."
[Er Mengmeng]: "I feel the same way. The suction force of the waves made it impossible to even move my hands. It was so scary. It felt like countless hands were pulling at my limbs."
[Fei Huan]: "Luckily, fortunately there are so many people on the shore, otherwise I would have died like this and I would have been killed by my own stupidity!"
Yu Ding was soaked all over, and everyone could tell from his face under the diving goggles that he didn't look very well.
The girl in his arms had only one tenth of her health left.
"Someone come and save her!"
After getting away from the shore, Yu Ding immediately laid Pan Tiantian flat on the ground, and then tried to rescue her according to his knowledge and the method mentioned by Jingzhao in the public screen.
Fortunately, hard work pays off. After a few dry coughs, Pan Tiantian suddenly spat out several mouthfuls of sea water.
Yu Ding's heart almost stopped for a moment. He hugged Pan Tiantian, crying and laughing. His eyes were red, and his tears and sea water mixed together, making it difficult to tell them apart.
"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay." Pan Tiantian drank the medicine soup he fed her with a pale face. The warm medicine soup warmed not only her body.
"Brother Yu Ding is here, Tiantian will be fine." She leaned in Yu Ding's arms, and Yu Ding picked her up and walked step by step towards the 001 territory.
[Confused]: "Have you seen the public screen? There is a person named Doubt in the opposite territory who came to explain what we are experiencing, saying that it should be called a rip current."
[Yi Ling]: "Rip current? Sounds like a familiar name."
【Zi Bu Yu】: "Some of our people were also swept away. Three players died."
The number of survivors on the public screen decreased by five on such a peaceful first day, leaving 9,995.
[Yu Bai]: "I really didn't expect the current to be so strong. I almost got swept away. There was a player who was swept away first, and I almost caught up with him!"
[Yu Bai]: "If he had held on for another two or three minutes, I might have been able to save him. He was swept quite far away by the waves. The speed of the waves is too fast!"
[Careful and Hopeful Israel]: "Rip currents, why do I feel like the recent solar terms are testing our knowledge of geography?"
【Zi Bu Yu】: “I’ve seen related news somewhere.”
[Suspicion]: "Rip currents may seem calm on the surface, but they are generally not very lethal."
【Ci Shengyi】: “Ah huh?”
[Suspicion]: "Rip currents are essentially waves at low tide, but when the tide is high, there will be a small dam hidden under the sea surface. Once a gap appears in the small dam during low tide, the gap will show an irresistible suction force!"
[Suspicion]: "If a person is swept away at this time, they will be several meters away from the coast in almost one minute. The suction force will make it impossible for them to struggle. The more they struggle, the faster they will die!"
【Zi Bu Yu】: "I remember now. I remember dealing with rip currents. Stay calm and swim sideways in the direction of the dam. Never swim towards the edge of the coast."
[Cautious Israel]: "Stay away from the gap, the suction will be much smaller, and then slowly move towards the coast."
【So redundant】: "Or maybe if a bigger hole is opened in the dam, the suction force will be reduced, right?"
【Suspicion】: "That's exactly what happened."
[Yi Ling]: "What are the characteristics of rip currents? This way players can pay more attention to them."
In the coming time, players will have to travel back and forth across the sea too many times, so it is best to know more about prevention.
[Suspicion]: "It's hard to say. The identification characteristics of rip currents are not obvious. All I can say is that it's best not to rush to see the aurora."
[Jungle]: "Although the aurora is beautiful, life is more important."
[Mushroom]: "If you really want to see it, come get some mushrooms from me. I guarantee you'll have everything you want to see after you eat them!"
[Bian Nuannuan]: "Listen to me, thank you."
【What a Big Cabbage】: "Today is really a mixture of shock, joy, and sorrow. I am almost numb to the core."
Everyone supported each other and returned to the territory from the coast facing the aurora.
When I get home, I wash up first, take a hot bath to relax my body, and then eat something to replenish my hunger.
Finally, I drank some water and checked the public screen. It was already 11:30 in the evening, and the sky outside was still the same as during the day.
