[Day 25 of Survival on a Desert Island, 8:00 AM, Dense Fog.]
Today's visibility is 34 meters.
Ever since killing a group of red-eyed rats, Gu Mian seems to have attracted a lot of hatred from the rats, with at least thirty red-eyed rats coming to her door every day seeking revenge.
They killed rats every day, and eventually, they became numb from killing so many.
Fortunately, there are only five days left until the end of the competition. She only needs to kill five more rats before she can be free.
Of course, she hasn't just been killing rats these days; she also sells panaceas and earns duplication cards every day.
As the competition progresses, it becomes increasingly easier to contract the poison buff, and the fruits in the forest and some normally mutated beasts outside also begin to mutate in a poisonous direction.
Previously, it might have been possible to find edible fruits and mutated beasts, but now none of them are edible.
Fortunately, the players who have survived to this day are not short of food.
Even if all else fails, there are biscuits, bread, instant noodles, and other snacks to fill your stomach.
Therefore, the biggest threat to players is still the poison buff. Once they get infected, unless they drink a panacea to remove the negative status, they will die.
Moreover, even with a breathing mask, it cannot provide complete protection, since people still need to eat, and they have to take it off when eating.
Once you pick them, they'll almost certainly get contaminated.
With sufficient supplies, no player seemed intent on causing trouble for others; most players quietly stayed in the cave, waiting for the match to end.
However, this applies to players who have enough of the universal potion to last until the end of the match.
A significant number of players don't have enough stockpiled goods, so they have no choice but to risk going out every day.
Besides lone wolves, there are also many players who team up together.
Faced with fog that obstructs vision, many people share their methods in chat channels to avoid accidentally getting separated from their teammates.
Time passed little by little, and finally on the thirtieth day, the system notification sounded.
[Congratulations to all players for successfully surviving for thirty days in this desert island competition.]
[In ten minutes, the system will teleport you back to your respective rafts.]
[Congratulations to player Gu Mian for achieving first place in this competition! You have received a Diamond Chest*10 and an additional Island Bound Card*1.]
[Congratulations to player Moza for achieving second place in this competition and receiving a Diamond Chest of 10 as a reward.]
[Congratulations to player Zhou Ye for achieving third place in this competition and receiving a Diamond Chest*10 reward.]
...
[The server-wide rankings for this survival competition have been updated. You can check the leaderboard here.]
Ten minutes passed in a flash, and a dazzling white light flashed, and Gu Mian was teleported back to the raft.
Chat channel.
"Holy crap! I've finally left that wretched island and am back on my lovely little raft!"
"This competition is really tough! Every day feels like I'm blind. If it weren't for you bunch of idiots chatting and joking around to pass the time, I probably would have gone crazy from boredom long ago!"
"Gu Mian is once again at the top of the leaderboard in this competition. As someone who buys the 'boss potion' endlessly, I can only say that the 'boss' truly deserves the title!"
"You're having such a rough time, upstairs? You haven't been able to get the universal potion even once?"
"Don't even mention it! I haven't managed to open a single one! If it weren't for Boss Mianmian selling panaceas every day, I'd probably be dried up by now!"
"To correct the person upstairs, when we die, we don't leave behind a body, only a backpack."
"Stop it! I'm getting excited!"
"Hahaha... I'm dying of laughter, what a bunch of idiots."
"Who's second on the list? I don't think I've heard of that name before."
"Probably another lone wolf. Speaking of which, I've noticed that a lot of really talented people are lone wolves, haven't they?"
"Wild beasts always roam alone, while cattle and sheep flock together."
"Damn it! Can't you speak properly? You're hurting my feelings, you know?!"
"Based on my experience last time, I can finally get some rest after this competition."
"That's what I think too. Although I survived in the cave for half a month, that shabby place couldn't compare to the comfort of my little wooden cabin!"
Not to mention, my cabin even has a comfortable double bed!
"Upstairs, what you said seems to be implying something?"
"Hehehe, I see through it but I won't say it."
...
Although there were tents to sleep in on the island, they were nothing like beds, so the first thing Gu Mian did upon returning to the villa was to wash up and then climb into bed to sleep.
I slept soundly for ages, and when I woke up it was already 8 p.m.
Lying in bed, Gu Mian took a while to fully wake up.
After the match, all backpack slots were unlocked.
She nestled into the sofa, took out a cup of red bean milk tea, and lazily sipped it.
The milk tea was warm, and the temperature was just right for drinking.
After finishing her milk tea, which filled her stomach to about 50-60%, Gu Mian casually opened her email to receive the rewards she had won in the competition.
[Received 10 Diamond Chests]
[Talent used, obtain Diamond Chests *20]
[Obtain Island Binding Card *1]
[Talent used, obtain Island-Bound Cards *2]
Island-bound cards are listed in the trading area and sold for 100,000 points each.
With each additional player binding an island, the speed at which the world is purified will further accelerate.
Chat channel.
"Brothers, Boss Gu has released two more island-bound cards. Those with points, hurry up and grab them!"
"Wait...why are there two? Doesn't the number one player on the leaderboard only have one island-bound card?"
"What are you saying? There are still 10 diamond chests left! You can't just let someone open another one from a chest, can you?!"
"Damn it! I forgot about the diamond chest! I'm so envious of those big shots. I'm always just a runner-up, not only do I not get any rewards, but I also waste a ton of resources..."
"What you're saying is just because you're not good enough! If you're bad, practice more!"
"Holy crap...that's heartbreaking!"
...
The silly chat among the players reminded Gu Mian that she still had 64 diamond chests to open!
He immediately took out 10 diamond treasure chests from his backpack and opened them one by one.
