Chapter 69 Updated on November 5th
The scene within the field of vision seems to be filtered by a blue filter, giving it a clear, hazy and dreamy beauty.
The seaweed swaying gracefully in the water and the colorful corals like deer antlers are like the flowers and plants on the seabed, living together. Occasionally, there will be groups of three or two beautiful little fish playing around, and the scene is once very healing.
The scenery in front of us is undoubtedly extremely beautiful, and the difficulty of finding the target is also greatly increased. The clay is hidden in the pile of soil, and except for a slight difference in color, it is not much different from the surrounding soil.
Yu Zhu: It’s hidden quite deeply.
She was like an identifier, touching here and there on the seabed, paying attention to the small words that emerged.
It took more than ten minutes to dig out the first piece of clay.
It took 8 minutes to search and 2 minutes to dig, but with the experience from this time, it became easier to dig later. The difficulty lies in finding the clay, which requires good eyesight underwater.
After digging two more pieces of clay, Yu Zhu set his sights on the seaweed.
Although it is not clear what seaweed sticky substance is, the name tells us that it is definitely related to seaweed, so seaweed must be collected.
When picking the first seaweed, Yu Zhu deliberately chose a place where the seaweed was dense, thinking that if he wanted to pick more, he should pick more at once to avoid searching for it later.
As a result, just as she was pulling away the seaweed, a snake rushed towards her face. She subconsciously blocked it with her hand, but was bitten by the sea snake, which released milky white venom.
However, the venom could not be injected at all. No matter how hard the sea snake bit, it could not bite through Yu Zhu's purple gloves.
If it had bitten anywhere else by chance, even the wrist would have been injured, but it happened to bite the side of the palm.
Instead of feeling any pain, Yu Zhu felt a slight itch. How was this different from scratching someone's palm?
She almost couldn't help laughing out loud because of being tickled. It wasn't that Yu Zhu wanted to laugh, but her palm was really itchy. She simply stopped hesitating, grabbed the sea snake's throat, held it in her hand, and kept some distance between herself and the seaweed.
A closer look revealed it was a long-snouted sea snake, also known as a yellow-bellied sea snake or a black-backed sea snake. The name suggests its appearance: a long snout, a narrow head, a black back, and a yellow belly. The boundary between the two colors is clearly visible. Compared to other more famous venomous snakes, its venom is relatively mild, but still potent enough to kill. While the venom delivered is far less than that of an Egyptian cobra, its toxicity is ten times greater.
According to real-life records, long-nosed sea snakes rarely attack humans, but this was in the game. A sea snake that could live near a mid-level island couldn't be just a simple little snake. Any other player would have been poisoned to death by it just now.
Yu Zhu also discovered that there were almost no small fish activities in this seaweed patch, and there were probably countless poisonous sea snakes hiding in the shadows of the seaweed.
Any player with a little common sense should have given up when faced with difficulties, but Yu Zhu did not leave. She felt that it didn't matter where she went, unless she picked scattered seaweed, which would make the progress too slow. It would be better to just pick it here.
(Game: ? Make do?)
Compared with the strength of the sea snake, Yu Zhu directly showed it his true strength, grabbing both ends of the sea snake with both hands and constantly crossing them.
sea snake:……?
The scenes in the usual cartoons actually appeared in reality. Yu Zhu tied the sea snake in his hand into a bow and tied it to the seaweed beside him.
This move confused the sea snake hiding in the dark. Is that strange-shaped thing (bow tie) really their kind?
In short, Yu Zhu understands the power of deterrence, and most animals fall for it. It's similar to the scarecrow. It may not work all the time, but it will definitely be effective at the beginning.
The sea snakes were full of questions as they carefully hid in the seaweed, watching and lurking, but their patience had its limits.
As Yu Zhu picked more and more seaweed and continued to move closer, the sea snake's range of activity became smaller and smaller.
A certain sea snake finally couldn't bear it anymore and launched an attack on Yu Zhu again. It was extremely fast and showed its fangs, which looked quite real.
Half a minute later, a brand new bow was tied to the seaweed.
The two bows are paired together and have very similar shapes. It can be seen that the person who tied the bows is skilled, experienced, and has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
With another vivid example, the long-nosed sea snakes became much more docile. Some snakes even simply stopped staying in this area and quietly migrated to other seagrass patches. The main thing they did was to know when to do things.
During this period, the oxygen tank was emptied every 20 minutes. Yu Zhu felt that the oxygen was scarce, so he would surface in advance, inflate the oxygen tank, and then dive again.
It took a total of one and a half hours, and the total gains were: Clay x10, Seaweed x20.
She dug until she had reached the limit for today, and the formula for the ointment was almost complete.
In addition to digging clay and seaweed, Yu Zhu found that both sand and stone had hints. Harvesting stone was the same as normal quarrying, but sand could not be collected. It would fall apart as soon as the simple hook was dug.
Yu Zhu tried it only once and then stopped trying again. It was obvious that he was missing the collection props.
After that, she found a large piece of dark soil on the seabed. It was more muddy than clay and looked dirty.
She swam over and found it was [sludge]. She dug again and spent half an hour digging, and obtained: Sludge x10.
Except for the targets that can be collected, Yu Zhu would not touch anything else. Some small fish would curiously pester her for a long time, but she would not touch them.
Yu Zhu was very clear about this. Even though this little creature was small, catching it would give her a spot. She could only catch 5 fish a day, so she couldn't afford to touch it.
12:00 noon
After soaking in the sea for a whole morning, when Yu Zhu swam out again, her already fair skin had become even whiter, but she also gained a lot.
After leaving the water, Yu Zhu did not stay on the shore. She was wet all over and walked in the direction where Xinni left.
I walked all the way to the downstream of a stream, washed the seawater and sand off my body with the stream water, wiped off the water with a bath towel, found a flat area, and set up a simple shed and a simple bed.
Underwater collection was not easy, so she changed into clean and refreshing clothes before lying down to catch her breath.
After resting for a few minutes, Yu Zhu took out the pot, filled it with stream water, used chopsticks as a stand, and planned to steam a few crabs to eat.
There are 1kg of crabs in total, which is 4 crabs in total, just enough to steam in one pot.
Perhaps she smelled something, Xinni dragged back a big rabbit with a crooked neck.
It carried the big rabbit all the way to Yu Zhu's feet, then turned around and went back to pick up two fat rabbits that had been chopped off.
People often say that a cunning rabbit has three lairs, and when it was Xinni's turn, she had to kill three rabbits.
It is similar to the plum blossoms laying eggs in the morning. The two little guys are secretly engaged in internal competition and are extremely diligent.
Yu Zhu put the rabbit away without any hesitation, then lowered his body and lay on Xinni as if he had no bones.
The bear meat she ate before going into the water did have a certain effect in dispelling the cold, but it was also consumed after being soaked in sea water for a long time.
Xinni also felt Yu Zhu's low body temperature, and she quietly let Yu Zhu hold her.
The daytime temperature is normal, but slightly lower than usual. Everything has its own signs, and tomorrow may be even colder.
The big cat was lying on the simple bed, and Yu Zhu was lying on the big cat, holding the warm Xinni, feeling both comfortable and warm.
Xinni, who was held by Yu Zhu, didn't move obediently, but wagged her tail happily.
After the crabs were steamed, Yu Zhu sat up again, lifted the lid of the pot to dissipate the heat, and also gave Xinni an 850g all-meat platter.
The crabs were steamed into an orange-red color and were relatively large in size. Yu Zhu's way of eating them was also very simple and rough. He easily opened the shell and pinched off the inedible parts. The crab roe and crab meat were all in one bite. There was no seasoning. It was extremely tender, plump and rich, and delicious.
After eating the crabs, Yu Zhu washed his hands and prepared for a nap.
She lay lazily on the cot, hugging Xinni, and was about to fall asleep when she saw a broadcast.
[Loudspeaker: Congratulations to player Luo Xincheng for successfully killing the boss Brown Bear! Firstblood!]
This was the second player in this server whose killing of a BOSS was reported, and as expected, the chat area was in an uproar.
Feng Hao: Wow, Boss Luo is awesome!
[Qian Caiyue: Lao Luo is quietly doing something big!]
[Ma Xuguang: Brother is so awesome, I want to hug his thighs~]
Luo Xincheng: Hahaha, thank you all for the compliments. As for the one hugging someone, go play somewhere else!
…
Yu Zhu glanced at it and didn't look at it again. No one could stop her from taking a nap.
Perhaps because Yu Zhu was too calm, he couldn't bear to watch the game anymore.
【Don’t you have any ideas?】
Yu Zhu:?
She was so sleepy that she almost closed her eyes. What ideas did she have?
Perhaps because he saw the doubt in Yu Zhu's eyes, Youxi was choked.
Anyone who sees a loud speaker would probably feel a sense of danger, right? After all, they've met an opponent!
Before Youxi could say anything else, Yu Zhu had already rested his forehead against Xinni's cheek and fell into a deep sleep.
One must have a broad mindset in life. The BOSS is not exclusive to anyone, so it is not surprising to be slaughtered by others. It all depends on one's ability.
She remembered that Luo Xincheng had obtained two island maps, and his resources must be richer than others. Calculating the time, it was almost time, so it was normal to be able to kill the BOSS. If she was the only one who had killed the BOSS, that would be terrifying.
