Chapter 74 The White-Bearded Dwarf
If you pass the Trial of the Hero and then go out to kill monsters, the number of monsters will not increase.
After discovering this rule, the four decided to team up and clear out the monsters outside the shelter one by one.
Everyone originally planned to go to Su Tinglu's shelter first.
After thinking for a moment, Su Tinglu told the three of them about the situation at her shelter.
Xu Meigui said thoughtfully, "No wonder your first kill announcement came after the second place announcement... I was wondering why the second place announcement came first this time, now I see."
Su Tinglu simply smiled at this.
Actually, there are other reasons as well.
Her sanctuary includes spotted turtles, rosebuds, and watermelon thorns.
The three quickly arrived near Xu Meigui's shelter. The four exchanged glances, rushed out, and killed the monster in no time.
Meanwhile, they waited silently in place.
Once it was confirmed that only one monster had appeared and no second or third one had appeared, he didn't even glance at the remaining monsters and used a teleportation scroll to go to the next location.
When they arrived at Wang Meng's island, everyone was somewhat surprised.
"How come the desert isn't polluted by acid rain?"
"And how come the cactus is blooming?"
Wang Meng shook his head: "This is the only plant on the island, and it's very strange."
Xu Meigui looked around in surprise: "Why don't I see any monsters? Wang Meng, are you sure there were two or three monsters around your shelter before?"
Wang Meng also sensed that something was wrong.
It really is a monster!
Wang Meng clearly remembered that he had fought with the monster back then.
The cactus flowers were exceptionally vibrant, blooming despite the acid rain, and showing signs of bearing fruit. But when it saw several people looking over, it looked a little wilted, and it was unclear whether it was a socially awkward flower.
A notification popped up.
【The only Brave-level Cactus Succulent (Upgradeable): ??? Unable to display】
Unable to display?
This cactus looks a bit strange.
Su Tinglu couldn't help but look at it a few more times. For some reason, Su Tinglu clearly felt that when she looked at it, the flowers on the cactus shrank slightly inward.
Xu Meigui crossed her arms: "Brother Meng, it seems your island has encountered the same situation as Xiao Lu's. Never mind... let's hurry up and go check on Brother Dahe's island?"
Su Tinglu kept staring at the cactus.
She noticed that as soon as Xu Meigui finished speaking, the cactus petals that had just closed in opened up again.
It was as if... they were happy to hear that they were leaving.
Su Tinglu felt a mischievous urge.
She suggested, "No rush, it's not dark yet, let's stay with Wang Meng a little longer."
Cactus Succulents: ...
(Chewing, chewing, chewing, you stinky human! They're telling you to leave, so hurry up and leave!)
(I'm already annoyed by work, can't I just have some time to myself?)
(Still looking at my pretty little flowers? I won't let you see them!)
Before their eyes, the blooming cactus flower turned into a bud.
interesting!
Li Hai's "okay" was swallowed back by Su Tinglu's suggestion.
He nodded: "I have no objection. You can come to my place anytime."
Wang Meng and Xu Meigui's surprised gazes fell on Su Tinglu.
Didn't Su Tinglu just say to resolve this quickly?
Why are you saying you'll stay a little longer now?
Su Tinglu's gaze was meaningful as she casually touched the flower buds that had sprouted on the cactus.
"This cactus is quite amazing; it can shrink and contract freely."
"This cactus has always been on the island. During the beginner protection period, it can automatically produce 100ml of water."
"These look no different from the coconut trees on Little Roo Island."
Cactus Succulents: ...
Su Tinglu was stroking it enthusiastically when suddenly her hand went empty. "Plop—" She turned around and saw that a cactus bud had fallen to the ground.
Xu Meigui was surprised and bent down to pick it up: "Why did the flower bud suddenly fall off?"
[Succulent Essence: After consumption, you will not feel hunger for seven days. It is a rare and special food in the survival world. Note: The only way to obtain it is through the Celestial Succulent.]
Is she angry?
She has quite a temper.
Su Tinglu stopped teasing it and looked at the flower bud in Xu Meigui's hand: "Let's go to Li Hai's house."
All three of them were taken aback.
Why has it changed again?
Xu Meigui handed the flower bud to Wang Meng: "Brother Meng, this is from your island. You can put it in your storage space."
He looked at Su Tinglu with surprise: "Xiaolu, what's wrong with you today? Why do you keep changing your mind?"
Is this still the Xiao Lu she knows?
Su Tinglu could clearly sense that the cactus had become happier. She coughed twice and said, "I'm fine... Sister Rose, don't worry, let's go now."
Although Xu Meigui was puzzled, she also felt that Su Tinglu wouldn't do this for no reason, so she nodded: "Okay."
Li Hai and Wang Meng naturally had no objections.
Li Hai disappeared from his spot, and Xu Meigui and Wang Meng clicked to confirm, quickly teleporting there.
When it was Su Tinglu's turn, she glanced back at the cactus swaying in the acid rain.
Not far away, a cactus was swaying happily. When it noticed her gaze, it paused for a moment, then quickly stood at attention.
They're quite concerned about saving face.
Su Tinglu didn't expose it, and without wasting any more time, she clicked the teleportation button to leave.
They're finally gone...
Two thorns fell off the succulent cactus, as if it had breathed a sigh of relief. Then, a cactus was seen running wildly in the acid rain.
Then they moved to a different place to settle down.
Su Tinglu, who had just been teleported, was still wondering whether to tell Wang Meng about this, but the moment she landed, she was so surprised that she forgot everything that had just happened.
Xu Meigui gazed out the window and murmured to herself, "Brother Dahe, has your island broken some kind of divine law...?"
Li Hai looked embarrassed: "I clearly remember there were only three monsters outside before I left..."
Outside the window, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or even ten pairs of eyes appeared outside the shelter.
His eyes lit up with excitement when he noticed that a survivor had returned.
If Li Hai's shelter hadn't been a level two facility, it probably would have collapsed long ago.
Xu Meigui: "I strongly suspect that all the monsters from Xiaolu and Mengge's island have come here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Meng rushed out to kill monsters.
The three exchanged a glance and then rushed out as well.
But the three of them were shocked shortly after they went outside.
There are definitely more than ten or twenty! There are not just five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten of them!
Wang Meng was quite excited about the killing, while Li Hai scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
"Thank you everyone..."
I don't know why, but there are so many monsters on his island.
Without further ado, the four of them started fighting.
Unbeknownst to them, not far away on the other side of the island, a white-bearded dwarf was watching this scene with schadenfreude from a raft.
