Chapter 83 12.12+13+14+15 Four Updates in One
Collecting seaweed in the seaweed group is very efficient. It only takes 10 minutes to get 20 seaweeds.
Ever since Luo Xincheng sold the furnace, the success rate of smelting seaweed slime has been greatly improved, and players have become more active in collecting seaweed. However, for safety reasons, everyone collects scattered seaweed. After all, large areas of seaweed are dangerous just by looking at them.
In daily underwater collection, people usually collect whatever they come across. To be on the safe side, they only collect places that can be seen clearly at a glance to avoid the danger caused by blind spots. Although they are cautious, the time required for collection also increases exponentially. It often takes most of the day to collect the maximum amount. Of course, the harvest is also considerable.
One piece of seaweed is worth 20g of water. When smelted into seaweed goo, the price will increase to 50g of water. 20 pieces of seaweed goo are equivalent to 1000g of water. Not only that, other collected materials can also be sold for money. Players save money bit by bit in this way.
Yu Zhu is very busy every day, and other players are also very busy. Everyone is working hard for their own survival.
After collecting the upper limit, Yu Zhu swam away. She took out the shovel she bought yesterday and started digging the sand on the seabed. If she used other tools to dig, the sand would scatter in the water, even if she dug with her hands. But the shovel could keep it intact and she could dig up a large piece of sand. However, it was difficult to exert force in the water, so she had to use a few shovels to get used to it.
If the shovel is too shallow, only a small piece of sand can be harvested. If the position is too deep, it will be difficult to pull it out, and it will consume more physical strength. Fortunately, Yu Zhu is relatively strong and can easily dig sand with brute force. It still takes 10 minutes to obtain 10 pieces of sand.
Logically, Yu Zhu didn't dig any sand yesterday, so her quota still existed. Shouldn't she be able to dig twice as much today? But the reality was different. She knew with her toes that the game would definitely not agree.
Tasks like felling trees, quarrying, and fishing are daily tasks, while collecting seabed materials is an additional task. The two are not of the same nature. Moreover, the shovel was bought after the island was blocked, and the time for collecting materials has passed. All these circumstances told Yu Zhu that it was impossible, so she did not make any unnecessary attempts.
At the same time, the game in the dark watched Yu Zhu digging the sand quietly. After she finished digging, she did not leave immediately. It guessed what she was thinking, but Yu Zhu did not stay for too long, obviously giving up the idea.
This surprised it, and it was also amazed at her understanding of it, giving Yugi the illusion that she knew what it was thinking.
(Yugi shakes his head frantically: Impossible! Absolutely impossible!)
When Yu Zhu finished digging the sand, he began to look for his next target, completely unaware of the madness of the game.
She also collected sludge, silt, and soil, and divided them so finely that you couldn't tell which was which unless you looked carefully.
Just as Yu Zhu thought, many people dug the wrong mud for this, and ultimately ended up wasting their time.
Mud is not easy to find. Some recipes require sludge, while others require silt. There is only one word difference, but they are two completely different things. This game is really torturous.
Yu Zhu was not in a hurry. She never made choices. Adults naturally wanted everything, so she dug them all.
However, in order to clarify the collection direction, we still have to learn to distinguish and find ways to distinguish.
The difference between sludge and mud is that sludge is mostly deposited on the seabed and contains pollutants/humus, while mud is mud deposited by the slow flow of water, and mud is soil mixed with water.
Wearing swimming goggles allowed her to see underwater for a long time, which saved her a lot of trouble.
Yu Zhu also noticed someone selling homemade swimming goggles in the trading area, made from clear water bottles. Luckily, she had the goggles Xinni had found; they were much cooler than water bottles. Soon, she found a large expanse of mud. To be more precise, the seabed was nothing but mud, besides sand and minerals. It was everywhere, but because it was so soft, it wasn't easy to collect. But with the props, it was different.
Sure enough, only a shovel can be used to dig up large pieces of soil, one shovel after another. It feels a little harder to dig than sand. In the end, it took 15 minutes to get 10 pieces of soil.
Based on yesterday's experience of digging mud, Yu Zhu found mud and silt one after another. The two took more time, and it took a total of 60 minutes to collect 10 pieces of mud and 10 pieces of silt. Half of the time was spent on finding mud.
After all the collection was completed, the small fish and shrimps in this area had become familiar with Yu Zhu.
Instead of hiding when they saw her, they would swim over to her and circle around her enthusiastically. Some bold transparent white shrimps would get close to her mouth and start eating her teeth. They would pick her teeth, which was cleaner than when she brushed them herself, with absolutely no dead angles.
Yu Zhu: Who says free stuff is bad? This is quite capable.
As an indispensable cleaner shrimp in the ocean, also known as "doctor fish", their existence is very beneficial to the health of fish. They are also the most famous among all aquarium shrimps. They are famous for their cleaning ability and can help remove some parasites/organic matter from fish or other creatures. ①
During this time, when she got tired of digging in the mud, she would raise her hand to guide the little fish to circle around, resulting in several colorful little fish following her side. They were more playful than her and were entangled by them after just playing for a while. Those who didn't know would think that she was wearing a series of fish-shaped pendants.
Fortunately, Yu Zhu doesn't like fried fish, otherwise he would have to catch them, heat up the oil in a pan, and experience the world of high temperature.
It took nearly two hours in total. The underwater collection was over and Yu Zhu began to swim back. She returned to the beach smoothly. She felt less tired this time than yesterday, probably because of the increase in health points. However, her body temperature was still very low.
She didn't go into the woods anymore and decided to rest on the beach.
He took off his oxygen tank, kicked off his fins, and took off his goggles. He lay on the hot beach in a spread-eagle position, his body madly absorbing the warmth of the sand. Yu Zhu didn't mind getting stuck everywhere. At worst, he could just wash it off later. Life is about the present. Do whatever you want without too many worries.
After lying quietly for a while, the sunlight was hot and dazzling, so Yu Zhu squinted his eyes, turned his head, and looked at Xinni beside him. Xinni was sitting not far from him, with a small sand pit dug in front of her.
Out of curiosity, Yu Zhu sat up, put away his things, walked over, and found that the pit was full of clams and conchs that were unable to escape. He could probably imagine the scene of them running around, being caught repeatedly by Xinni, and being brought back to the pit.
Yu Zhu: What a capable little guy.
We'll have razor clams for dinner tonight. Let Xinni taste the fruits of her catch.
Speaking of this, Yu Zhu prefers to eat crabs. He believes that since he is already here, it would be a shame not to catch some crabs.
While thinking, Yu Zhu raised his hand and waved, and obtained a total of: 500g of razor clams and 500g of conchs.
Xin Ni was quietly waiting here, just to wait for Yu Zhu to come and claim the prey. She only moved when she saw the prey had been taken away.
Since following Yu Zhu, Xinni has never worried about food, and even eats better than before. However, she has not slacked off because of this. She will go hunting whenever she has the chance, and she can always find work for herself, whether it is rabbits or seafood.
Domesticated animals, especially wild beasts, often gradually lose their wildness, but this is not the case with Xini.
It still maintained its hunting and vigilant instincts, and was also searching for the meaning of its existence, something that little Xinni had never considered before. Xinni's eyes would always inadvertently fall on Yu Zhu, as she was the goal of its life.
It may be related to the way Yu Zhu was trained. She fought with the BOSS every few days, and Xinni became more and more courageous.
Body size and strength will directly affect the outcome of the battle, but Yu Zhu's body is not stout, she still defeated the BOSS. She is Xinni's role model, and she will definitely become stronger, as strong as her.
Whether it is humans or animals, when they no longer fear life and death and move forward courageously, their growth rate will be quite amazing.
At this time, Yu Zhu was humming a song leisurely, and she didn't know that Xinni's mind was full of ambitions. Her thoughts were much simpler, just eating, drinking, and being happy every day.
Fight when you should fight, eat when you should eat.
Survival of the fittest. Perhaps it was because of the existence of the little ones that the days of survival at sea were no longer as lonely and difficult as they were at the beginning, and she began to enjoy it.
Yu Zhu took Xinni to the beach in Area B, and specifically chose places with big rocks. He kicked over each rock with one foot, being overbearing and unreasonable.
Often, before the crabs below could figure out what was going on, they would be put into the inventory and become Yu Zhu's possession. A total of 1,000g of crabs were harvested.
After going around in circles, I returned to the starting point of Area B.
Just as Yu Zhu remembered this place, the nearby animals and plants were also familiar to her. It was no exaggeration to say that the moment they saw her appear, it was as if they had seen a bolt from the blue.
The notorious bully from B Beach, whom I thought I would never see again in my life, but who would have thought that in less than a day, she would come back!
The trembling crabs were secretly praying that they were not the unlucky ones.
Crabs: Can’t catch me, can’t see me…
Perhaps it was God's will that nothing really happened, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
This is how nature is, the strong prey on the weak, it's either you eat me or I eat you.
If it were any other player, the crabs would have been rubbing their claws excitedly, ready to go on a killing spree! They are carnivores, so even a small human would be no problem. However, if they hit a wall, they're doomed to be eaten. This time, they were lucky enough to escape.
The crabs with a little bit of intelligence are very good at summarizing experience. Looking at the direction Yu Zhu came from, it was different from the first time he rowed a boat. He probably came here after catching crabs somewhere else. Thinking of this, the crabs all felt relieved. The main point was that it would be better for me to live than for my friend to die.
Crabs: If you catch other crabs, you can’t catch us!
Their safety was guaranteed, but the coconut tree tensed its trunk and stood stiff in place: was this overwhelming disaster going to happen to it?
There are at least several coconut trees in this area. The one that is least anxious is the one that was persecuted the day before yesterday. It is barefoot and has no fear of wearing shoes. Anyway, there is no coconut left (all picked by Yu Zhu), which makes the coconut trees next to it very anxious.
Perhaps because of what it was thinking, it actually discovered that Yu Zhu was heading straight towards it.
Coconut Tree:!!!
This person needs to learn how to avoid danger in an emergency, and the tree will naturally learn it when it opens its wisdom.
Yu Zhu had just walked to a distance of less than one meter from the coconut tree when she heard a "crack" sound from above. Without her having to do anything, a coconut fell from the tree. She took a quick look and found that the one that fell was the largest one, so it was probably sweet.
Coconut Tree: Where does that 80% come from? Absolutely 100%!
Even if it had ten times the courage, it would not dare to deduct the remaining 20%.
With the leading coconut tree as an example, it seemed as if a gust of wind blew by, and several nearby trees made crackling sounds, and a coconut fell from each tree. The answer was right in front of us, and anyone who didn't copy it would be a fool!
(Game: Do you really want to be so servile?)
Xinni rushed over quickly like a puppy seeing a thrown ball, and pulled several coconuts over one by one, piling them near Yu Zhu's feet. There were exactly 5 coconuts, reaching the collection limit.
Yu Zhu looked up at the trees above his head and picked the one he liked the most, which was also the only tree without coconuts.
Coconut tree:?
Yu Zhu's reasoning was justified: "This tree is curved enough to provide better shade, and we don't have to worry about being hit by falling coconuts. It's perfect."
Coconut Tree: Hehe, hehe...
The makeshift shed has been built, so why do we still need these leaves to provide shade?
Is it its fault that there are no coconuts? It's all her fault!
It was clearly so straight once, but she bent it!
With new and old grudges piling up, the coconut tree could only obediently let her take shelter in the shade^v^
It is impossible to be tough. Yu Zhu is right about one thing. It has no coconuts, just like a gun without bullets. It is impossible to hit her.
The coconut trees next to it were completely relieved. It would be best if it could end peacefully. After all, they are peace-loving by nature. :)
The time came to 12:00 noon.
As usual, Yu Zhu set up a simple shed and bed, took out a furnace and started smelting seaweed. He then put a folding table and prepared two large bowls of snake meat (1kg) for Xinni, and brushed them with 100g of honey to enhance the flavor and color. Xinni couldn't stop licking her lips, and when Yu Zhu was done, she started eating without stopping.
Yu Zhu was originally worried that Xinni would get tired of it, but seeing how enthusiastically it was chewing on it, he guessed that she wouldn't get tired of it even if she ate a few more meals.
As expected of the cub she raised, it can eat a lot and has a good eating manner. She couldn't help showing off several chestnuts when she saw it.
About ten minutes later, Yu Zhu's takeaway was finally ready.
Ming Jingming: Free spicy noodles with soybean paste (600g) and cold shredded rabbit meat (500g)
[Yu Zhu: Free 2000g coconut (2 pieces)]
Ming Jingming silently accepted the coconuts that Yu Zhu sent him. He also had a map of the island, so he had no shortage of coconuts to eat. But when he saw the two coconuts from Yu Zhu, he always felt that they were bigger than ordinary coconuts.
Perhaps to verify his guess, he took out a coconut that he had picked before but had not eaten. After comparing it, he found that it was indeed a whole circle larger, giving the impression of being the Coconut King.
In short, he would not trade these two coconuts. He planned to keep them for himself or cook them for her.
…
Beach B.
Yu Zhu and Xin Ni used two identical large wooden bowls. As soon as they were placed on the table, a domineering aroma wafted out.
While Xinni was busy, she did not forget to look up at Yu Zhu's bowl. When Xinni had almost finished eating, it was her turn to watch Yu Zhu eat.
The fried noodles with soybean paste still taste the same as the original one. The noodles are made with flour and are very chewy. The minced meat and chili are spicy enough. It is also served with many side dishes such as cucumber shreds, crushed peanuts, coriander, white sesame seeds, etc. It is undoubtedly a bowl of fried noodles with soybean paste with luxurious configuration.
After slurping two big mouthfuls of noodles, Yu Zhu's soul was sublimated. It seemed as if a pair of small wings had grown on his back, and he was so happy that he could fly in the air.
Add a few pieces of fragrant hand-shredded rabbit meat, which is so tender and fragrant, and she enjoys the most delicious food in the world. She even wants to get an annual card from Xiao Ming. It is so delicious.
After enjoying a delicious lunch, Yu Zhu picked up a coconut, clenched his right fist, knocked a hole in it, and drank the pure natural coconut milk happily, which was cool and refreshing.
After eating and drinking, he leaned back and lay lazily on the simple bed.
At this moment, she threw away all her worries and enjoyed the good times.
Anyone who sees this scene would probably think they are on vacation.
Yu Zhu felt sleepy and covered herself with a cool summer quilt. In a daze, she felt something warm touching her. She instinctively leaned towards it. There was a smile on the corner of her mouth when she fell asleep.
The coconut trees are also very aware of the situation and always adjust the angle of their branches and leaves to ensure that the sun cannot reach the napping bully at any height.
1:30 p.m.
The lunch break was controlled at 40 minutes, and Yu Zhu gradually woke up from his sleep.
She patted Xinni who was lying beside her, and sat up from the bed.
Yu Zhu tidied his clothes, washed his face, and prepared to start doing things.
Pick up 20 pieces of seaweed goo from the furnace and mix them with 10 pieces of clay to obtain 10 ointments.
After packing up her things, she looked at the sky. It was cloudless, perfect for visiting old friends.
The man and the leopard set out again. There was a stream further inside. She took out the 100L bucket given by Fu Wanwan, waited for it to be full, put it into the inventory, and continued to walk deeper into the forest.
Not long after walking, she saw a mandrill guard hanging on a tree, looking back and forth in her direction.
Yu Zhu waved naturally: "Good afternoon, long time no see!"
The mandrill was so excited that he said, "Ahhhhh!"
Long time no see! No, why are you back again?
Yu Zhu: "Thank you for your warm welcome. I'm sure everyone will miss me after such a long absence."
The blue monkey face of the mandrill showed a very anthropomorphic awkward smile. You can figure out the specific meaning yourself.
Anyway, Yu Zhu was not embarrassed at all, she looked really happy.
(Game: How can I not be happy? Free stuff again! Such a great person is hard to find!)
Because Yu Zhu acted too friendly and familiar, she walked into the mandrill's territory very naturally, as if she had returned to her own home.
Several mandrill guards raised and lowered their hands, wanting to stop her, but they were hesitant. In the end, they were too kind and just let her in.
The mandrills they encountered looked a little dazed when they saw Yu Zhu, as if they had seen a ghost. But from their reactions, it could be seen that they all had good memories. At least they still remembered her, but their attitudes were not as enthusiastic as at the beginning. They just watched her walk by quietly.
After a calm analysis, I felt like I was being called into action by the Mandrill King, and my brain was put back into place.
Yu Zhu didn't care. She took out a mangosteen slowly and began to eat it sweetly. Immediately, a little mandrill couldn't help but come towards her eagerly and followed her with eager eyes.
This cannot be blamed on it. Most children are like this. They are at the most curious age. When they see others eating something, they want to eat it too. It is their nature and they cannot resist the temptation of delicious food.
Perhaps because the little mandrill felt so pitiful, Yu Zhu stuffed the mangosteen peel in his hand into its hand.
Little Mandrill:?
Not getting what it wanted, it threw the peel aside. Just as it was about to transform into a bear mandrill, it received a small piece of mangosteen.
There are only a few petals in total, so it's very kind of you to be able to share one of them.
The little mandrill was a little angry at first, but when it stuffed the small petal of mangosteen into its mouth, it smacked it and tasted the sweetness. It couldn't help jumping up and down and wanted to eat it more.
Yu Zhu: “No more.”
The little mandrill, born ferocious, wanted to fight her again, so he responded to her "friendly" smile that could scare a monkey to death.
It quickly used its small brain to think about it, but before it could come up with a solution, it was pushed aside by other little mandrills.
This was obviously a little mandrill who understood the tricks. He held his treasured sweet fruits in his hand and stuffed them all into Yu Zhu's hand, and received 1 mangosteen from Yu Zhu.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Zhu began a fair and free trade, exchanging various fruits that the little mandrills had never eaten for their small snack library.
It is commendable that they accumulated so much in just one day, which shows how rich the resources in the mountains are, and the scene became lively for a while.
When the Mandrill King hurried over, he saw Yu Zhu surrounded by enthusiasm, which seemed very familiar to him.
After a day of cooling down, the wolves at the foot of the mountain came looking for the lost sheep and found them. The two sides almost had a big fight. What else did the Mandrill King not understand?
They'd been tricked! Cunning humans! So treacherous! How dare they scheme against them! And even stole their treasured seeds! Damn it! They were furious! So furious!
Last night at the monkey meeting, I scolded these foolish people and told them not to trust humans anymore, but they ended up welcoming her back. Who on earth did this?!
The Mandrill King's eyes were about to spit fire! With a gloomy and gaudy face, he walked towards Yu Zhu step by step, as if he was about to start a war with Yu Zhu in the next second.
Yu Zhu, however, was completely unaware. His attitude remained the same as always, and he said with a pleasant face, "Xiao Wang, why do you look so angry?"
Mandrill King: ???
What did she call it! She even stopped calling it Lao Wang and called it Xiao Wang instead!
Just as the Mandrill King was about to get angry, he saw the title above her head: [AC Area Overlord].
That’s right, it could see Yu Zhu’s title. Although it didn’t recognize the letters, it could see the difference in number. There was one more than before.
Perhaps due to the lord's intelligence and awareness, it instantly understood the meaning.
Yu Zhu is the lord of at least two territories, and they are not small territories, occupying two-thirds of the entire island. This is a very terrifying concept.
A day ago, she only had one territory, the Mandrill King and his many subjects, and she could still fight against them, but after careful consideration, she chose to make friends with Yu Zhu in order to avoid casualties.
Now this human has become stronger, how much time has passed? It is unbelievable.
The mandrill clan and the mountain wolf clan jointly occupy Area B. Their strength is very similar, and each has its own advantages. They jointly bear the responsibilities of the lord of Area B. They have never interfered with the other two areas and have always restrained each other, but this balance is obviously about to be broken.
No wonder she dared to call herself Xiao Wang! This time, her purpose must be more than simple. What on earth did she want to do?
Seeing the Mandrill King in a daze, Yu Zhu wanted to laugh: "You don't recognize me after just one day?"
When the Mandrill King realized that something had changed, his brain really short-circuited. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and was stepped on by the little mandrill who couldn't squeeze in next to Yu Zhu.
This kick was like the last straw that broke the camel's back!
The mandrill king was extremely annoyed and completely angry. He picked up the little mandrill on the outermost edge and threw it to the ground nearby. With his own strength, he threw a group of ignorant little monkeys out and threw them far away.
The Mandrill King finally had a place by Yu Zhu's side.
Mandrill King: "Ahhhh!"
Although she still couldn't understand the Mandrill King's words, that didn't stop Yu Zhu from following him. After walking around among the monkeys, she got covered in monkey hair, but she didn't mind. She acted like a lord, even more patient than the Mandrill King.
When the man and the monkey walked alone under a tree, there were fewer and fewer mandrills around them. This was a very suitable place for negotiation.
The Mandrill King stared at Yu Zhu vigilantly, almost talking nonsense in a hurry, and kept yelling "Aoaoao".
Yu Zhu:?
This time it was her turn to be confused. How could such an innocent sound be made? She cautiously took a step back and kept a safe distance.
Mandrill King: ...?
Yu Zhu: "There's a difference between humans and monkeys. Please respect yourself."
Seeing her disgusted look, the Mandrill King almost fainted from anger. He is the most handsome one in the tribe, okay!
With just three short sentences, he was able to make the Mandrill King speechless with anger. It was probably to the extent that the mountain wolves wanted to become his disciples immediately after seeing him.
Although the mountain wolves consider themselves cunning, they are far less humiliating than these monkeys. There are very few species that can do this. It makes people so angry that their heads are about to smoke.
Of course, the joke couldn't be taken too far. Yu Zhu took out another mangosteen and handed it to the Mandrill King. This time it was a whole mangosteen, the kind that would make the little monkey next door cry with envy.
Under Yu Zhu's encouraging gaze, the Mandrill King finally took it. The fruit, which was black on the outside but white as petals on the inside, tasted really delicious.
It also knew what this meant, and it compromised.
What's the point of fighting? Even the mountain wolves are here to cause trouble, aren't they all just looking for a bite to eat? As long as they can eat and drink well and reproduce from generation to generation, that's more important than anything else.
Wars are often accompanied by casualties. It is normal that they don't want to fight after such a long period of peace. The main reason is that they don't want to fight unnecessary wars or wars that they are not sure of winning. On this basis, they should avoid them if possible.
Then, the Mandrill King rolled his eyes and took out a treasure chest that was shining with silver light.
Mandrill King: "Ah."
I know you want this.
Yu Zhu: "Old Wang, you are so kind."
The Mandrill King snorted and finally handed the treasure chest to Yu Zhu.
(Game: ? That's it?)
If the game didn't have its own detection mechanism, it would have thought that the Mandrill King was played by Yu Zhu himself. It was simply outrageous. Even if it was cheating, it wouldn't be so obvious.
However, the Mandrill King put his hands behind his back and calmly told Yu Zhu that he only had the treasure chest but no key.
Just hand over this treasure chest. In its eyes, it is no different from the moon at night. It is used to illuminate. It cannot be opened anyway and the things inside cannot be taken. If you keep it, people will always be coveting it. So just hand it over.
Whenever the King of Mandrills thought about Yu Zhu not being able to open the door, his mouth corners would almost stretch to the back of his ears. That’s right, he just wanted to see Yu Zhu suffer a setback!
The treasure chest was easily obtained. Yu Zhu's first reaction was that there was a bomb inside, but looking at the look of the Mandrill King with his nose turned up, he felt that it was not the case.
Looking at the tightly closed treasure chest with a keyhole on the surface, you will know what is going on.
Yu Zhu tried to open it with her hand, but found that it really couldn't be opened. She looked at the Mandrill King with a faint light in her eyes.
It mainly reminds me of the treasure chests before, which were all unlocked. As for why they were unlocked, it was because the boss was killed and no one owned it, so naturally there was no need for a key.
Mandrill King: ...?
It felt a chill on its back when it was looked at, and couldn't help but think of the joke about her killing a small mandrill with an axe, so it explained it with a loud "ah ah ah".
Although Yu Zhu didn't understand, she could guess that the key was most likely with Shanlang.
Yu Zhu: "I'll accept this treasure chest. Thank you."
"I'll get the key myself. Do you want to come with me?"
The Mandrill King refused without hesitation, but he was also thinking about watching the show in his heart. This was also a test.
It wants to watch a drama of a fight between the snipe and the clam so that it can reap the benefits.
The disappearance of the sheep is a great humiliation for the mountain wolves.
Wolves are very vengeful creatures. They are good at fighting in groups and are insidious, cunning and patient. It may be difficult to get the key.
The conversation ended here, and Yu Zhu didn't stay any longer. He set off towards the mountain wolf's territory. He was naturally in a good mood. Others visited the thatched cottage three times, but Yu Zhu visited the mandrill three times. Wouldn't he have gotten the treasure chest?
No matter what its intention is, the reward is real.
The Mandrill King looks very honest on the surface, and his mind is as cunning as honeycomb briquettes, but his cleverness can backfire.
If it really had no brains, it would have fought with Yu Zhu from the very beginning. It would have been a fierce battle, and the result would have been something that neither side wanted to see. It would be better to keep it like this now.
Yu Zhu came to the cliff again, ready to get the key to the treasure chest.
With an intermediate bow in hand, she only loaded one arrow and aimed it at where the sheep were, which was also the longest range of the bow.
“Whoosh—”
With a sound of breaking through the air, the stone arrow was firmly fixed on the tree, and the birds in the forest flew away in fright.
The sheep were so scared that they ran around in panic. One of the leading sheep even butted the wolf guarding nearby, and the scene became chaotic in an instant.
In the woods below the cliff, the howling of wolves, one louder than the other, came one after another, as they were conveying messages.
Within a few minutes, the wolf king and his pack arrived at the foot of the cliff.
Yu Zhu did not hide, but stood there openly. After all, the mountain wolves had no arrows, and she had the geographical advantage, so she was naturally not afraid.
The man and the wolf stared at each other for dozens of seconds.
From the perspective of the Wolf King, Yu Zhu is the lord of the AC area. She holds a sharp weapon in one hand and drags the treasure chest of the Mandrill King in the other. Even her followers are the cubs of the former BOSS.
The entire island is about to fall, and it seems that only the mountain wolf clan is left. The smart leader will make the most correct choice.
It let out a low "woof" and lowered its noble head, voluntarily submitting to her.
【……】
The game that witnessed the whole process issued a confused six points.
Yu Zhu: "Why? The Monkey King and the Wolf King have no objections, but you do?"
【Why? 】
Finally, it couldn't stop asking out of curiosity. It pretended to be gloomy on the surface, but it was actually extremely curious in its heart.
Yu Zhu's strength was naturally beyond doubt. She had killed two intermediate BOSSes in succession, but Area B had not lost a single soldier. It could not understand why it turned out to be such a situation where she won without doing anything.
Yu Zhu: "This is the importance of social interaction. You still have a lot to learn. Watch carefully, listen carefully, and don't always ask why."
【I don’t understand】
"Just four words: strength comes first."
"Thanks to the title you gave me, I like it very much."
As early as the first time, Yu Zhu noticed the gaze of the Mandrill King, which kept looking at her head. She knew that it saw her title. It is known that the title has 100% deterrent effect on animals in the area to which it belongs, but other areas will not be affected at all.
Although all animals can see the title, not all of them can comprehend it. Most of them cannot quite understand it even after seeing it. Only the Mandrill King, who is also a lord, knows it best.
Yu Zhu's early actions were more like the lord of the neighboring area, who came to the territory of the Mandrill King to socialize. On the premise that there was no conflict of interest, the Mandrill King was naturally willing to make friends with her, and the road ahead was paved step by step.
It will be difficult to defeat the two groups one by one, and their combat effectiveness is definitely not lower than that of a single BOSS.
This battle should not have been fought, and she would not have fought it. It was precisely because Area B was divided into two parts that the current situation was better facilitated.
A true regional hegemon will never tolerate other powerful forces coexisting with him.
If Area B was ruled by one ethnic group, everyone would have fought each other to the death.
So, all this is like God's will.
Although the wolf king had made his attitude clear, Yu Zhu did not rush down. Her intention was obvious. She only needed the key. Anyway, the sheep she wanted to capture were already on the raft, so she had no other intentions.
Seeing Yu Zhu knocking on the treasure chest with his bow and arrow, the Wolf King turned around and went back very smartly.
If the treasure chest can still be used for lighting, then the key is useless, so it is better to hand it over and keep the tribe safe.
As the saying goes, born in adversity, die in comfort.
The wolves in its pack are just too comfortable. Ever since they came up with the idea of keeping lambs in captivity, they have all become lazy. If a fight really breaks out, they will definitely suffer a lot.
Five minutes later, the wolf king brought a silver key, put the key on the ground, howled towards the sky, and then retreated with the wolves.
Yu Zhu held up a telescope and monitored the movements of the wolves at all times. Only after he was sure that the wolves had really left did he take out a simple hook and slid down. This time he did not bring Xinni with him because she would be going up soon.
The bow and arrow and the simple hook were newly acquired at noon, and they really came in handy in the afternoon. The main purpose was to create a deterrent effect.
After getting the key, Yu Zhu climbed up the cliff again and took Xinni away from the border of the mountain wolf territory.
She inserted the key into the treasure chest and heard a "click", successfully opening it.
A familiar gradient light flashed before his eyes, and before Yu Zhu had time to look, he heard the game prompt sound.
[Ding! Detected that you have gained the submission of the Mandrill King and Wolf King in Area B!]
[Title Upgrade: Island Owner No. 297 (Intermediate Island)]
[Effect of wearing: ① You have 100% deterrence on Island No. 297]
【②Every week, you will receive a total of 5% island tax rewards from each region】
[③Other players who collect island resources will pay you a 20% resource tax]
【④ No matter where the island is, you can check its specific geographical location】
The moment he wore the title, Yu Zhu felt that he was completely connected with the island, and there was an indescribable resonance.
Even Yu Zhu didn't expect that she would get an island in the survival game. She became the owner of the island, and the owner of a mid-level island.
The most basic thing is still deterrence, she can walk around the island with ease.
The second is the taxation system, which is similar to the tribute system. A sensible island will send her supplies regularly, which will provide her with a stable source of food, so she doesn't have to worry about having no fruits or seafood to eat.
Although Yu Zhu is the owner of the island, other people can also go to the island and have to pay taxes on the materials they obtain, which is a bit like the setting of Monopoly.
When a player buys a piece of land/an island, other players who stay on the island have to pay a certain fee, which is another income.
The fourth one is a bit intriguing. It is indeed difficult to control the direction when drifting on the sea. If there is no map, once you leave, you will basically not be able to find the island. Now with real-time positioning, this kind of thing can be avoided.
But through the text, Yu Zhu got a further hint: the island will run away.
The island is most likely not fixed. It will not stay in one place forever, which effectively prevents players from wanting to take advantage of the island.
After all, who would want to drift on the sea when they can survive in a place with abundant resources? And the game will inevitably take corresponding measures.
Of course, these are all based on ordinary players. As the island owner, can't Yu Zhu survive on his own island?
The answer is probably no.
The game certainly wouldn't allow that, she knew its ways well.
Who can ensure that the island will not be destroyed?
Don’t let your own island be affected.
Yu Zhu simply stopped worrying about it. There was no point in staying on an island forever.
The world is so big, it would be a shame not to travel around.
By the time she had digested the island owner's message, she received another game notification sound.
[Ding! Detected that the player's island exploration progress has reached 100%. The island merchant has been activated, and the encounter probability has increased to 80%]
[Island Merchants: Wanderers with abundant supplies wandering between islands]
[Note: The higher the level of the island, the higher the level of the island merchant rewards will be.]
Yu Zhu thus had a new goal - to find someone on the island.
She will ask everyone to pay attention to this later. Since there are guests on the island, they naturally have to show their hospitality as the island owner.
The rewards that came one after another made Yu Zhu's life more and more exciting, and she finally had time to check the rewards in the treasure chest.
A total of: Single bed blueprint x1, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall recipe x1, Hinge x5, Metal Spear blueprint x1, Advanced Armor Pants x1.
At this moment, Yu Zhu had a premonition that he was going to get rich again.
She first studied the blueprints for a single bed.
[Single bed: Improve sleeping comfort by 30%, allowing you to fall asleep better]
[Benefit: Lying down can restore 5 health points per hour, up to 50 health points per day]
[Materials: Wood x100, Palm Leaves x35, Wool x30, Nails x20, Fragments x15]
This is obviously a mid-level bed, and the blood recovery amount is directly increased by 5 times.
Yu Zhu’s scissors are ready, but I wonder if the lambs are ready?
On the other hand, Yu Zhu put away the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall recipe and the hinge, and would deal with them later when he returned to the raft.
The last thing we learned was the blueprint for the metal spear, which was obviously an upgraded version of the wooden spear.
【Metal Spear: Sharp Piercing Tool】
[Durability: 40]
[Materials: Wood x10, Rope x5, Metal Ingot x2, Bolt x1]
Yu Zhu made one and held it in his hand. Although the spear body was still made of wood, the most critical tip had undergone a qualitative leap.
Holding the metal spear, Yu Zhu's combat effectiveness was greatly enhanced. Her palms felt a little itchy, and she really wanted to fight to test her level.
Action speaks louder than words. The gun shot out like a dragon, and the metal spear in his hand fiercely stabbed at the big tree beside him and pierced through it directly.
Big Tree: ...
For a moment, I couldn't tell who was crazier, Yu Zhu or the woodpecker.
After stabbing the tree, it stabbed the stone, penetrating just as deeply, leaving clearly visible cracks on the surface of the stone.
Yu Zhu exerted a little force, and the whole stone exploded from the inside out as if it was under irresistible pressure.
Two simple experiments can show the difference between ordinary stone and metal materials. The hardness difference is huge.
Therefore, it is conceivable how difficult it was for Yu Zhu to kill two bosses using stone arrows, stone pickaxes, and stone axes.
After finally getting a weapon that suits him, Yu Zhu couldn't let it go. His eyes sparkled, like a child who had obtained the mecha toy he had always wanted.
She didn't put the metal spear away, but instead swung it while picking up the last reward, another purple outfit.
Yu Zhu felt that she was about to collect a set of purple-level equipment. With the experience of the previous two times, she directly checked the description of the purple equipment.
【Advanced Armor and Trousers】
[Level: Purple]
【Features: Speed increased by 100%】
[Bonus: Wearer's Agility +6]
