Shark No. 1 unlocked three skills at once, but the fish-raising system indicated that only one skill could be set at a time. To free up her hands, Gu Xi naturally chose the first skill, pushing boxes.
After setting up the box-pushing skill, Shark 1 swam happily.
Currently, only Shark No. 1 has the power of fish, so Gu Xi can't completely give up and can only continue to fish for boxes with his fishing rod.
She desperately wanted another shark to bother her right now...
Having to keep an eye on the sea early in the morning, Gu Xi was completely lacking in energy. After about 40 minutes, a box finally drifted by.
Gu Xi skillfully cast the rod, pulled it closer, and opened the box—a series of movements as smooth and fluid as a chocolate commercial.
After unpacking, it brought Gu Xi a harvest of 1 bottle of mineral water, 2 plastics, and 2 pieces of wood.
Ordinary materials and ordinary harvests had already dampened her spirits. Just then, a box quickly approached her.
The speed was so fast that Gu Xi thought her eyes were playing tricks on her. She rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't seeing things.
What is that?!
The box drew closer, and Gu Xi finally saw the figure hidden beneath it. It was none other than her Shark No. 1!
"Shark No. 1! Well done!"
Gu Xi couldn't help but shout it out, regardless of whether Shark No. 1 could understand it.
Three meters, two meters, one meter – Shark No. 1 pushed the ordinary wooden crate directly in front of Gu Xi. Shark No. 1 poked its head out of the water and roared twice.
"Very good, very good, Shark Number One!"
Now Gu Xi no longer complained about the poor feel of Shark No. 1. She touched its head and then carried the wooden box onto the raft.
"Shark No. 1, you continue pushing the boxes."
As if it understood these words, Shark 1 turned around and dived back into the water.
With the help of Shark No. 1, she's now acquiring wooden crates at a speed comparable to a beginner's event. Gu Xi's eyes sparkled as she dismantled an ordinary wooden crate.
Wood*4, Iron nails*2, Spicy strips*1 (250g)
Gu Xi was very satisfied with the snacks and spicy strips she got. After categorizing all the items, she continued fishing for boxes.
By the time the afternoon event started, she and Shark No. 1 had collected 26 crates, which contained a variety of abundant resources.
There were more than a dozen 550ml bottles of mineral water, and even a 400ml bottle of soda water. The amount of wood exceeded 100, and there were more than 30 iron nails. The food harvest included 5kg of rice, 500g of salt, 500ml of cooking oil, a pumpkin weighing about 2kg, and a box of tomatoes weighing about 1kg.
Although food supplies are plentiful, she lacks cooking utensils, so the food can only be stored as provisions for now. Once the beginner event ends, she'll receive another batch of supplies, and perhaps then she'll be able to cook again.
[Game Announcement: The countdown for the temporary "Survival at Sea" event for new players ends in 1 minute. Please prepare accordingly.]
Gu Xi looked at the crates drifting on the sea. She had never felt that a minute could be so long. By the time the countdown ended, the number of crates on the sea had visibly increased significantly. She immediately commanded Shark No. 1 to launch an attack.
The 5-square-meter raft no longer swayed as it had yesterday, so the ripples caused by the wooden box had negligible impact. The distance to the fishing box, which Gu Xi dared not exceed yesterday, was now extended to over 4 meters by Gu Xi.
Soon, a wooden crate floated by, and Gu Xi quickly cast her line. Just as she pulled up the crate, a shark swam over, pushing it along.
Even more surprisingly, the ripples created by the shark's swimming brought another wooden box to the vicinity of Gu Xi's raft.
Three happy events! What a fantastic start!
Gu Xi was so excited that he used his fishing rod to pull the wooden crates over. In just two minutes, the three crates were lined up on the raft.
Having more wooden crates is certainly a good thing, but these crates take up too much space! Gu Xi tried putting one crate into her backpack, then putting in a second one, and found that the crates could actually be stacked, taking up only one space.
Gu Xi was overjoyed. With this discovery, she no longer had to worry about having to immediately dismantle the wooden crate to make room after it was fished up.
