The night passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Changge woke up just as the sunlight touched his eyelids.
"How is Cracked?" Li Changge sat up and tiptoed to the wooden barrel containing Cracked and the Myth Egg.
Its body was torn open and covered in bloodstains, like a bloody shackle locking it inside.
Even with Li Changge's keen eyesight, he couldn't make out the shape of the crack.
"It's a bit strange, but it should be fine. The cracking seems to be a transformation," Li Changge muttered, his tone somewhat uncertain.
But he sensed that the cracked area was gradually stabilizing, proving that the injury was improving.
"Go for it, Little Crack, ganbatte!"
Li Changge straightened up, leaned out from behind the partition, and took a deep breath.
"The weather is nice today, perfect for fishing," Li Changge said with satisfaction, enjoying the sea breeze.
"Fishing".
Ten seconds later.
The fishing rod disappeared again, and the system's voice rang in Li Changge's mind.
[Fishing Successful]
[Item Obtained: Elite Toolbox]
Then, a small, blue toolbox, slightly larger than Li Changge's palm, appeared at Li Changge's feet.
Toolbox?
Li Changge was a little confused.
[Toolbox]
[Rank: Elite]
[Purpose: When you're upgrading or repairing your raft, do you ever feel like you don't have the right tools? The Elite Toolbox contains everything you need for building.]
[How to use: Open the toolbox, reach in, and you can take out the tool you silently think of. The tool's level cannot exceed the level of the toolbox.]
"Holy crap? So thoughtful?" Li Changge couldn't help but swear.
I picked up the toolbox at my feet and liked it more and more as I looked at it.
The toolbox was not much larger than a normal person's palm, and Li Changge could hold it completely with both hands.
Most importantly, this thing is weightless; Li Changge holds it as easily as holding a feather.
"My previous worry was that the tools I built would break down after a short time. Now it's great. With this toolbox, I can take whatever I want. Most importantly, I can carry it with me as a life-saving trump card." Li Changge became more and more excited as he spoke, his joy overflowing.
Li Changge has gained another important trump card in his path to survival.
"Tool hammer".
Li Changge tried to take a hammer out of the toolbox.
Soon, Li Changge reached into the toolbox and then pulled his hand out, revealing a delicate steel hammer.
Li Changge tried to repair the raft that had been chewed up by sharks yesterday with a small hammer. As soon as the hammer touched the damaged plank, the raft immediately went from being tattered to being brand new.
"Wow, this little hammer is awesome, not bad at all." Li Changge nodded in satisfaction.
Li Changge tried to take out another tool, but when he reached in again, nothing came out.
He tried many times, but the toolbox did not respond at all.
"Can only one tool appear at a time?" Li Changge asked with some doubt.
He put the small hammer back in the toolbox and tried it again.
What came out this time was indeed the tool he had been longing for: a hammer.
"So that's how it's used. I understand now." Li Changge nodded in sudden realization.
"Then I'll sell these useless tools." Li Changge glanced at the few wooden tools in the corner, a hint of disdain in his eyes.
He put all these tools up for sale, including a good-grade harpoon, a common-grade wooden hammer, a common-grade mallet, and so on. The prices were all low, and each item was sold for a bottle of fresh water.
In addition to these tools, Li Changge also put a few steamed fish and crayfish in the trading room. However, food is a very important resource for survival, so Li Changge deliberately set the price very high.
After doing all that, he left the trading channel. He wasn't worried about no one buying; he was just afraid of too many people buying.
There are just too many choices!
[Attention! Attention! Survivors, the number of survivors who have upgraded their rafts has exceeded one million, so the survival game will be made more difficult.]
Survivors who haven't upgraded their rafts should prepare for certain death.
A mechanical sound suddenly rang out in the sky, startling Li Changge.
But the mechanical voice then spoke, causing Li Changge's expression to suddenly turn serious.
"One million, only one million survivors successfully upgraded the raft, and they're already raising the difficulty of survival?" Li Changge found it incredible.
"There are 30 million survivors here. To abandon 29 million of them all at once is truly cruel." Li Changge felt a chill run down his spine as he spoke.
After saying that, Li Changge immediately opened the chat channel.
"Holy crap, holy crap, I'm doomed! I was just trying to coast along for a few more days, but I haven't upgraded my raft yet. I'm doomed."
"Damn it, why are there such game rules? Are survivors like us who haven't upgraded our rafts not worthy of living?"
"Mommy, Mommy, I want to go home, I don't want to die, waaaaah."
“You do not deserve to live. This ocean world is full of dangers. Every minute and every second is a struggle to survive. You have already wasted four days. It’s time for you to die.”
"Sigh, who told you to be so lazy? That sound has been gone for ten minutes, and you still have the mind to chat here instead of going to collect resource barrels and upgrade the raft as soon as possible to try to survive. You might as well just die and leave the resources to us."
Two completely different voices emerged in the chat channel.
In fact, Li Changge also strongly agreed with the second view: survival of the fittest. Since you choose to sink, then death is the only option.
Can…
That's still too cruel.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three bolts of lightning struck in succession, startling Li Changge so much that he screamed and jumped up.
He looked up at the sky and saw that the once azure sky had turned into a dark, oppressive cloud, with purple lightning flashing within it.
Tick-tock!
Tick-tock!
Tick-tock!
A light drizzle suddenly began to fall from the sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The lightning interspersed among them was particularly frightening.
"Tool hammer".
Li Changge took out a tool hammer from the toolbox and used twenty pieces of wood to make an extra-large wooden umbrella, which he placed in the center of the raft, just enough to completely block the drizzle.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad." Li Changge moved the wooden barrel containing the cracked creature and the mythical egg to the center of the wooden umbrella. This not only gave him a sense of security but also protected the cracked creature.
"Why is the rain getting heavier?" Li Changge wondered, noticing the increasing sound of raindrops hitting the sea.
He wanted to reach out his hands to feel the rain in the world, but instead saw the flashes of lightning constantly striking down.
He chickened out.
boom!
Lightning is becoming more and more frequent.
Just then, Li Changge took advantage of the flash of lightning to see a message in the chat channel.
The punishment has officially begun!
