To be fair, getting to the island was easy; the difficulty lay in the fact that Li Changge knew nothing about it.
When Li Changge first set foot on the wood-attribute island, he almost died there because he was unfamiliar with it.
Even though I was somewhat prepared for my second attempt to land on a water-type island, I still almost failed.
It is easy to imagine that each island is fraught with danger.
"Never mind, let's get up here first."
Thump.
Li Changge jumped into the sea, and the split followed closely behind.
With a heavy anchor, the three-masted sailing ship doesn't need to worry about drifting away unless there's extreme weather like last night.
Two minutes later, Li Changge and Lie Kai successfully landed on the island.
"Um?"
As soon as Li Changge set foot on the island, he sensed that something was wrong.
This island is so desolate.
Li Changge looked around and saw nothing but sand and soil, without a single patch of green vegetation.
He bent down, picked up a cup of yellow soil, and smelled it, but found nothing unusual about it.
He walked around the perimeter of the island with the crack in his body, constantly jumping back and forth due to the rugged terrain.
After jumping for a while, Li Changge finally couldn't jump anymore.
He sat on the mountainside of a high mountain on the outskirts of the island, overlooking the sea.
At this moment, the azure, shimmering sea was unusually calm. Unless one had experienced it firsthand, one would have no idea how the waves had been raging the night before.
The three-masted sailboat was also in Li Changge's sight, moored in a very secluded spot, which was both safe and protected from the sun.
Killing two birds with one stone.
"Huh? What's that?"
Li Changge's eyes suddenly fixed on the sea ahead, his eyes narrowed, and a dangerous glint appeared in them.
At the same time, about 500 meters from the island, a sailboat nearly 30 meters long slowly approached, with two rafts on either side of it.
Someone's coming!
"Haha, Heaven has spared me! I survived last night's disaster and today I've found such a vast island."
A young man stood on the deck of a sailboat, looking at the earth-elemental island before him, and beamed with joy.
The young man's name was Chen Gui. He was nearly two meters tall but weighed only 150 kilograms, making him look like a skinny ghost.
"Congratulations, Brother Ghost. Although the earth-attribute island is a bit desolate, we can wait for newcomers to come and let them clear the land for us."
"The second brother is right. With the three of us and Brother Gui's beast, we can definitely dominate this island."
Chen Gui stood to the left and right, one fat and one thin, looking like two servants.
The fat one is called Xiong Da.
The skinny one is called Xiong Er.
It was subdued by Chen Gui while he was plundering the resources of the survivors.
In fact, the world of survival is not just about survival.
Some survivors find this too boring and start thinking about stealing things; these survivors just want to have some fun before they die.
But to their astonishment, they discovered that sailboats could advance by absorbing other rafts.
However, the success rate is extremely low, at least half that of upgrading through normal channels.
Upgrading a sailboat through normal channels is extremely rare, but upgrading it by stealing it...
One in a million.
Even with a low success rate, it won't stop some survivors from doing such crazy things.
Hundreds of thousands of survivors engaged in this kind of activity, burning, killing, and looting.
Their actions were so bloody that they were considered terrible by normal survivors.
It's basically a survival version of pirates.
Chen Gui was also a pirate. He was lucky and transformed his raft into a sailboat in just one week. Moreover, by absorbing the power of other sailboats, his sturdiness was much greater than that of ordinary sailboats.
Just a few days ago, when Chen Gui and his beasts were burning, killing, and robbing in the western sea, they encountered Xiong Da and Xiong Er.
He then recruited the two men as his henchmen.
"Hmph, I wouldn't even look at a desolate island like this."
Chen Gui said disdainfully.
"Tch, the look of surprise in your eyes has already betrayed you," Xiong Da thought to himself.
Chen Gui is extremely quick-witted, and he has a particularly disgusting flaw.
Loves to show off.
Every time he robbed a ship, he would broadcast it live in the chat channel. Seeing the impotent rage and fear of him in the chat channel made Chen Gui feel a sense of satisfaction.
Yes, yes, yes.
Xiong Da nodded quickly and then said, "I've checked the information. Earth-attribute islands are generally very rich in minerals. This island is vast, so its mineral resources must be incredibly abundant."
"Haha, if there are people on the island, let them clear the way, and then we can just rob them."
Chen Gui said with a smile.
"What if there isn't one?"
The usually taciturn Xiong Er suddenly asked.
"No? If not, we'll wait until someone comes. With such a large island, many people will surely find it within a week."
Chen Gui spat and said calmly.
As a pirate, he never considered digging it himself.
"Someone has actually come."
Li Changge's eyes lit up, and he wanted to rush up and brag to the newcomer.
"Hey."
The crack beside him stopped him, a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"You mean, those people smelled strongly of blood?"
Li Changge stared at the crack and said with surprise and uncertainty.
He nodded.
Rift is a perfect-level beast. Before being tamed, it was extremely violent and had an unusual sensitivity to blood.
Therefore, Li Changge did not doubt the truthfulness of Liekai's words.
"Then I'll have to reconsider."
Li Changge sat back down on the ground and said thoughtfully.
