"Hey 629! Why don't you come out and have some fun too? There's no one else around in this vast ocean, I'm so bored!"
Once the initial novelty wore off, Lin Xue quickly began to feel lonely.
Especially in such an open environment, the feeling of being all alone in the vast sea is extremely unpleasant.
"Alright, host!"
"However, in order to prevent the ocean system of this world from identifying me as a player, I can only appear beside the host in the form of an animal!"
Before leaving, 629 carefully explained something to Lin Xue.
The next second, a little spotted dog appeared in front of Lin Xue.
It wagged its tail at Lin Xue, and then started running back and forth on the bamboo raft.
Watching the little puppy hopping around and barking occasionally, Lin Xue suddenly felt that the loneliness she had felt earlier had quickly disappeared.
"Beep beep beep!"
Just as the two were having a great time, the boundary marker emitted a beeping sound.
This means someone has successfully completed another transaction with her.
Lin Xue immediately ran to the boundary marker to check and found that a survivor named 7755 had traded two pieces of charcoal with her in exchange for a large piece of fish.
Now that all the materials had been gathered, Lin Xue stopped dawdling.
He took all the materials out and put them together, then slammed the blueprint into the pile of materials.
The next second, all the materials on the ground disappeared, and a very simple water purifier appeared.
"No wonder it's called a regular water purifier; this thing probably won't produce much water!"
She moved the water purifier to the other side of the campfire, where she ate and slept. Such an important thing as the water purifier definitely had to be kept close by.
Lin Xue scooped up some seawater and put it into the water purifier to filter it slowly. Then she went with 629 to salvage supplies.
"Give me more cotton thread and hemp rope, so I can make a fishing net!"
Lin Xue can make anything she wants by hand, even without blueprints, provided she has enough materials.
Of course, it's even more convenient if you have blueprints. Just collect the materials, put the blueprints on them, and the item will be made immediately.
[Warning! Warning! An octopus monster has appeared in the waters ahead. Octopus monsters are very mischievous sea creatures; when they encounter survivors, they will drag them into the sea to play with them! 6688, please check your raft and prepare your weapons in advance!]
The notification message lingered in front of Lin Xue for two minutes before slowly fading away.
This seems to be an important clue; the reason for lingering for so long is to attract the attention of the survivors.
"Host, a giant octopus is heading our way!"
After the notification disappeared, 629's voice reached Lin Xue's ears.
"It's been a long time since I've had octopus tentacles. I wonder how powerful this octopus is, and how many moves it can last against me?"
He took the weapon he had made in his hand and stood on the bamboo raft, looking in the direction where the octopus had appeared.
A little while later, she felt the whole bamboo raft sway slightly. If she hadn't been steady on her feet, she might have fallen.
Fortunately, the octopus only attacked the edge of the bamboo raft and did not climb up.
Recalling the large fish from last night, Lin Xue guessed that these marine creatures wouldn't be able to easily climb onto the survivors' bamboo rafts.
"Smack!"
As she was thinking this, an octopus tentacle emerged from the sea and rested on the edge of the raft, near two bamboo poles.
Lin Xue reacted quickly, grabbing the octopus's tentacle and then slashing off a large section with her knife.
She was originally holding a bamboo stick, but when she saw the octopus tentacles appear, she immediately switched to a dagger.
"Haha, we've got lunch to eat!"
Holding onto the still frantically wriggling octopus tentacle, Lin Xue felt her arm being gripped tightly and strangely by the suction cups on the tentacle, but she did not let go and returned to the campfire.
The octopus in the sea was in great pain from this, and had lost all interest in playing with Lin Xue. It disappeared into the sea at some unknown time.
"I won't wait until you're completely dead, I'll cook you while you're still fresh!"
He took out a small iron plate from his spatial storage and placed the octopus tentacles on it to fry repeatedly.
She used fish oil made from the fish fillet fat taken from the big fish last night, sprinkled it with a little salt, and didn't add chili powder because she was worried that staying at sea for so long would make her feel hot.
Even with simple cooking, the octopus tentacles emitted an enticing aroma.
The octopus tentacles, which looked so thick, were quickly cooked through, and tasted crispy and chewy, not hard at all.
Lin Xue tried her best to eat half of it, but she simply couldn't eat the rest.
The only problem is that this octopus tentacle is too thick; this body simply can't finish it.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, and after another round of hard work salvaging supplies, Lin Xue finally lay down by the campfire.
"System, check the surrounding environment!"
Upon hearing the host say this, 629 knew that the time to transmit the plot was approaching.
"bite!"
"The environment is currently safe; mission storyline transfer is now possible!"
The owner of this body is named Xiaoxue. She is a child who grew up in a single-parent family and is currently in college.
Although Xiaoxue would secretly complain about the unfairness of the world during her school years, she felt that if she hadn't been born into a single-parent family, she might have been as happy as other children!
Even though her mother tried her best to provide her with living supplies, unfortunately her mother was just an ordinary office worker with a fixed salary each month, which was not enough to make their family well-off!
Although the original owner verbally expressed gratitude to her mother for not abandoning her, she secretly resented her mother for giving birth to her and bringing her into the world to suffer.
When the original owner woke up from a nap, he found that the whole world had changed. They had been transported to an ocean world to complete some kind of survival mission!
The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was a small bamboo raft, a vast ocean, and scattered wooden boxes floating around.
This time, fate was fair to her; she received the same things as the other survivors!
However, the original owner of this body grew up under her mother's care and had no ability to do things on her own.
At first, she huddled on the bamboo raft, shivering and doing nothing, hoping that rescuers would appear and take her away from her misery!
It wasn't until they were starving that they learned about the situation from the boundary marker and started using a fishing rod to fish for the wooden box!
However, she wasn't very lucky; most of what she caught were household items, and very little food!
However, after discovering the existence of the mall, she used what she had obtained to exchange for food sold by other survivors in the mall!
After the initial panic and fear, the original owner finally found his own way to survive and actively spoke out in the world, looking for like-minded friends to survive in the ocean together.
