Chapter 295 Survival at Sea Day 18 (1) Sea Salt Frost...
Safety first. It seems that if I want to complete this adventure, I will have to wait until next time.
Based on Xiaoguai's performance in this adventure, Yu Miaomiao believes that if she brings a well-fed Xiaoguai with her next time, she will be able to pass the level with twice the effort and half the result.
The glass debris rolled into transparent scales in the undercurrent, like invisible tentacles extending from the depths of the seabed, rolling into countless glass sea currents to grab her. She half-hugged Xiaoguai, pushed the catapult device, and swam hard with her feet, leaving the expedition site before the current could cause any harm.
Yu Miaomiao discovered that once the Crystal Palace was in the self-destruction program, the irregular suction force would disappear, and the water would rush towards the exit barrier, saving her effort.
A few minutes later, she brought Xiaoguai through the barrier of the adventure area. During the brief dizziness, she could feel that the furry object in her hand was lost for a moment. When she looked around worriedly, the piece of hair that she had messed up returned to her hand again.
After coming out of the cave, she looked at the gems around the cave. The brightest one above her head was still there. She immediately placed the bomb. After swimming to the safe area, she pressed the controller. After a loud bang, the cave passage disappeared from her sight.
"Ahhhh."
The force of the explosion woke Xiaoguai up. It opened its eyes, called out twice in the oxygen mask, and then waved its limbs and swam towards the sea surface.
Is there danger?
Yu Miaomiao believed Xiaoguai's feelings and followed him while keeping a low breath.
The direction it swam was exactly where their base was relocated.
There were too many broken wood and corpses near the old base, so after the highest wave passed, the companions at the base decided to relocate.
As soon as she swam, she saw two two-headed sharks rushing towards the explosion hole, so Xiaoguai sensed these two big monsters.
Ten minutes later, the man and the cat successfully reached the surface of the sea.
“Huahuahua——”
As soon as it emerged, a huge wave came towards it towards the setting sun.
Yingying, who had received Yu Miaomiao's message on the shore and was always paying attention to the underwater movements, hurriedly shouted, "Little cutie!"
After seeing the waves and the iron plate wrapped in the sea water, Yu Miaomiao pulled Xiaoguai and dived again.
She was in the water and saw a figure jumping down, and a blood flower bloomed in the sea water.
It’s Yingying!
Why did you go into the sea when you were injured?
Soon, sharks smelling the blood followed the scent from the sea.
Xiaoguai looked back and flicked Yu Miaomiao's body with his tail. Yu Miaomiao could feel that it was saying that there was danger.
Sharks follow the smell, the smell...the smell.
By the way, she had a bottle of deodorant. She quickly took one out of her backpack, sprinkled it into the sea water, and then took Xiaoguai and the injured Yingying back to the base deck.
"Yingying!" Lulu lent a hand and carried Yingying up, scolding her, "How could she just jump down like that after seeing such a huge board falling? She's really killing herself."
It turned out that Yingying was not injured originally, but was injured because she was hit by a steel plate in the waves in a panic after seeing Xiaoguai.
Seeing Lulu applying medicine to Yingying, Yu Miaomiao took off Xiaoguai's oxygen mask and took out the biological sensor to point it at the sea.
There was only one two-headed shark still heading this way, so Yu Miaomiao threw in another bottle of deodorant without hesitation.
After a while, the shark disappeared from the sensor. She stuck her dagger into the water and confirmed that there was no monster on the screen before she sat down on the deck. This trip was too tiring, and she had to drag Xiaoguai's heavy body with her.
Fortunately, the two-headed shark is designed not to actively attack human ships. I guess those corpses are the result of their biting. In today's situation, we must not get injured and bleed in the sea.
"Meow?"
Xiaoguai sniffed Yingying who was lying motionless on the ground and meowed in confusion.
Yu Miaomiao rested for two minutes before regaining some strength and replied, "She did it to protect you."
"Meow..."——I don't need anyone's protection.
Yu Miaomiao patted Xiaoguai's head and said, "Okay, okay, you don't want it, but you still need Sister Yingying to feed you."
"Meow!"
"Lulu, please help Yingying back to the room first." Yu Miaomiao called out. According to her mental calculations, the next wave would arrive in 5 minutes.
"Okay, Sister Miaomiao, you can rest here for a while. The waves are gradually decreasing now, so you don't have to worry." After Lulu confirmed that Yingying's wounds were all bandaged, she picked up the unconscious Yingying and sighed, "I don't know why Yingying cares about Xiaoguai. She's simply obsessed."
"Meow! Ouch!"
Yu Miaomiao patted Xiaoguai's head, and seeing it pretending to be fierce and showing its teeth, she soothed him, "I didn't mean to say that. Don't be so sensitive. Darling, let's go back to the house and eat meat."
"Meow~ meow."
The next wave was exactly as Lulu said, a wave that was not even half as big as the biggest wave Yu Miaomiao had ever seen. It seemed that today's crisis was over.
“Meow—”
Seeing Yu Miaomiao still looking at the holographic screen, Xiaoguai rolled around on the absorbent cloth and shouted unhappily.
Yu Miaomiao laid out the food one by one: "Here it comes, little ancestor."
“Ding ding.”
"Ao Yi: Meow God, the group leader believed it and was willing to tell me today's top secret information before letting me pay."
Yu Miaomiao asked Aoyi to post this cooperation post to let that group of people know that Aoyi has gained the trust of the base through the information they surrendered, so that Aoyi can buy some new information for free.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: So what is the top secret information?"
If it weren't for the people in Berserk Mode who were watching Aoyi all the time, Yu Miaomiao would have been really worried that he would have believed the new scam woven by the group leader again after hearing what he said.
"Oyi: Oh, he said he needs me to tell him the types and quantities of bombs in our base before he can tell me."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: He really doesn't worry about your suspicion if he wants to know such specifics. In that case, let's keep him hanging for now."
『Ao Yi: Huh? How to hang it? 』
Yu Miaomiao: ...
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Just say that you need to investigate thoroughly and confirm it before telling him. If he can tell you the information first, maybe you can have an excuse to go to the military stronghold to check it out earlier."
"Oyi: Where is our military stronghold? How come I don't know..."
"Aoyi: Oh, Kuangbao explained to me that this is just a trick, just pretend I didn't ask, hahahahaha..."
Yu Miaomiao didn't reply, but looked at the new message sent by Tingting.
"Can't stop thinking: Meow meow, didn't you go to the adventure zone today?"
The reminder just now was a message from Tingting.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Is there a delay in backpack sharing?"
Yu Miaomiao checked her backpack. She had received the items shared by Tingting in her backpack in the afternoon, but why didn’t the other party receive them? Could it be that the system was about to start some kind of delayed special event again?
"I just opened another treasure chest. Did you receive it?"
just?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Since I blew up the entrance to the exploration cave I left thirty minutes ago, there have been no new backpack supplies updated."
"Unstoppable longing: Ah, was I wrong? The reason for stopping backpack sharing wasn't the end of the server merging competition, but when we blew up enough caves? But why is that..."
"I can't stop thinking about you: I might have to go out again and look for the next note-taking spot."
Tingting said that Awei would always leave a treasure spot, which would contain some supplies, information and a description of the next treasure spot. After the special situation he left was triggered, he would ask Tingting to find it. So from the outside, it seemed like she was looking for Awei's traces like a headless fly, but in fact, she was doing it in a planned way according to the information left by Awei.
Xiaoguai, who had a full meal, had fallen asleep on the soft cushion. Yu Miaomiao forced herself to stay sleepy and practiced the tortoise breathing technique for a while before falling into a deep sleep.
[Survival at Sea Day 18 07:13 Sea Salt Frost] [Server Merge Competition Time Remaining 14 hours 15 minutes 05 seconds]
Yu Miaomiao slept very deeply that night. She even knew that she should wake up, but she just couldn't.
It felt like she had stayed up two all-nighters working on her thesis and then suddenly fell into a deep sleep.
When I lifted the curtains, I saw that the entire deck and nearby houses were covered with a layer of white frost.
What kind of weather is sea salt frost?
She felt it and it was a little cold, but not so cold that the floor heating would automatically start. Xiaoguai was not in the house. She saw Yingying's message saying that Xiaoguai was cooperating with her to catch fish.
Catch fish?
There were indeed many more fishing companions on the boat, and she glanced through the group chat messages.
"Chenchen: The weather is so weird today. As soon as it was past midnight, white crystals started falling from the sky. At first I thought it was snow, but it turned out to be sea salt."
"I'm so shocked: I tried this salt, but it won't fit in my backpack. I saw someone else try it. They put the sea salt that falls from the sky in a furnace and roasted it. Then they could store it in their system backpack and turn it directly into salt. Everyone, if you have time, collect some. Don't miss out on a freebie."
Then the companions responded actively and began to collect the sea salt that would become seasoning salt.
At the beginning, everyone was collecting very enthusiastically, but as they collected more and more salt, they found that they could never collect all the salt. In addition, in order to bake the collected sea salt, the wood consumption in the stove increased dramatically, and they even reduced the flame burning speed during baking. In the middle of the night, the cold sea breeze blew, and even by the stove, they could not feel a trace of warmth, so they had to stop collecting.
But if it is not collected, the sea salt will fall more and more. After the coarse-grained crystals cover all the planks, it will be slippery to walk on. When you step down, the accumulated sea salt will submerge your ankles, and then sparse rain will fall from the sky.
Today's rain is not poisonous, but the rain is full of sea salt. It is more like salt rain than rain, with salt grains mixed with water.
Therefore, the rain did not wash away the sea salt attached to the buildings, but instead accumulated more and more.
Nowadays, the air outside is filled with a strong salty smell. If you accidentally get a drop of salty rainwater into your mouth, you will need to drink two bottles of mineral water to wash away the salty taste.
Just when everyone thought the weather was too weird today, there were more fish in the sea. These fish were not monsters that would bite ships or attack humans, but creatures similar to modern marine fish. That's why there were so many more outdoor fishing survivalists.
Logically speaking, it has been the eighteenth day of survival at sea. Yesterday's weather directly reduced the population of each server by 10%, and even forced Yu Miaomiao, the sturdy Meow Meow Life Base, to move. How could today's weather be so simple?
"Pangpang: Don't let your guard down, everyone. Be careful when fishing. If there are ordinary fish monsters, there will definitely be bigger monsters waiting for the opportunity to strike."
"Aoyi: I believe there's a big monster in the sea, but Lulu, don't be too nervous. Maybe the system thinks too many people died yesterday, so they're giving us a break today."
Yu Miaomiao thought to herself, Aoyi really perfectly illustrates the saying that fools have good fortune.
Just as she was rinsing her mouth, grains of sea salt began to rain outside again. April's Lies had already made its rounds and, seeing Yu Miaomiao in a daze, asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Yu Miaomiao reached out and quickly touched a handful of sea salt. "I was wondering, since sea salt doesn't bring extreme weather, what extreme monsters could it be?"
"careful!"
April's Lie was fully focused on the sea today. She noticed a sudden bulge in the deck and quickly pulled Yu Miaomiao aside.
At this time, Kuangbao was also patrolling from the other side. Seeing this scene, he immediately sent a message to Hua Bie to inform him.
