Li Qingyu's vision suddenly went black.
It felt like something suddenly hit him in the face.
wipe....
Li Qingyu quickly reached up to touch his face and touched a large, square box.
Mulan, feeling a chill on her head, looked up in confusion and saw the large black box embedded in Li Qingyu's face above her.
"Lieutenant, what's wrong with your face? It looks like you have boxes on your face!"
Li Qingyu, who had just removed the box from his face, was also somewhat puzzled.
Which bastard dares to ambush me? Can't you see all these muscular men around me?
[System: The daily ocean purification rankings are now finalized. Those who didn't make the list yet are encouraged to keep up the good work tomorrow and strive for a better finish.]
You are currently ranked third on the purification leaderboard.
[The rewards have been distributed.]
Um....
Oh, it's just the system. Never mind then.
Goodness, in the last game the system would remind us to prepare to receive the package, but in this game the package was delivered even faster than the system notification.
What kind of courier service is this? They've really improved; they've even learned to deliver ahead of schedule.
Could it be... because the wind is blowing at our backs?
The key question is, it's already past midnight, so why does it feel like only an hour or two into the night?
The time it takes for Neptune to cycle between day and night is a bit too fast.
Could this also be a consequence of the virus?
With a hint of doubt in his mind, Li Qingyu looked down and examined the black iron box in his hand.
This box looks significantly smaller than the one awarded in the previous competition.
It was probably only slightly larger than Li Qingyu's head.
Could it be that because he only came in third place, the reward box was smaller this time?
Wait a minute, why is he only in third place?!
Although he didn't let Kun Kun purify properly, Kun Kun was still trained for such a long distance.
With the purification efforts along the way, there's no reason why we should only get third place, right?
Who else can match his speed?
[Crimson: That's hilarious! You don't actually think that just passing by on the surface of the sea counts as purification, do you?]
Licking a banana and eating a banana are two different things, little brother~
Forehead...
Okay, even the talkative older sister has come out.
It seems that the accelerated day-night cycle in this world has also affected Crimson's sleep schedule.
However, licking a banana versus eating a banana...
Li Qingyu looked around. As he moved forward quickly, the sea, under the influence of Kun Kun, became filled with a sense of tranquility.
So that's how it is.
Ocean purification is not based on the area of the sea surface that has been purified, but rather on...
What is the total area or volume of the seawater being purified?
Does that mean we'll have to take Kunkun with us and play Snake, going up and down in the sea?
[Crimson: As long as your fish stays in the seawater and doesn't wander around like this, the purification range will naturally expand over time.]
[By moving around like this, you're just licking the surface; you're not getting to the root of the problem, so the purification effect will be minimal.]
Okay, we think we understand now, Crimson, what you mean is...
So, like in the last game, let's not wander around and just stay somewhere, okay?
[Crimson: If you're comfortable with that, you can throw the fish back into the sea now.]
Throw it into the sea...
Li Qingyu glanced at the Kunkun, whose two adorable big black eyes were peeking out from his chest pocket.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Li Qingyu gave up on the idea.
Forget it, Kun Kun clearly has no fighting ability at all. Letting it roam free is just sending it to its death.
It's best to wait until the opportunity arises and settle down directly.
"There's an island ahead, Lieutenant. What do you think?"
Just as Li Qingyu was holding the box in a daze, Hua Mulan, who was under the box, raised her big head again and asked a question.
Upon hearing Mulan's question, Li Qingyu casually opened the virtual map of Neptune Star and confirmed that the island was indeed the island where the human race's seeded player was located.
"Let's go to the island, General. It seems my teammates are there."
"Alright, all troops, land on the island!!!"
Upon hearing Li Qingyu's words, Hua Mulan brandished her greatsword and shouted.
Seeing the army begin to surge towards the island ahead, Li Qingyu lowered his head again, looking at the box whose lid had slightly lifted because of his voice.
Very good, it's still a voice-activated speaker.
Li Qingyu yanked open the lid of the box, and what came into view...
It's actually a box?!
Looking at the small silver box inside the iron box, Li Qingyu was speechless.
But they still took out that tiny box, no bigger than the palm of their hand.
That's right. The reason Li Qingyu called it a box instead of a trunk is because this little box is designed like a small suitcase.
Just as Li Qingyu brought out the small box, the large iron box instantly turned into countless black specks of light, which scattered with the wind.
Tsk tsk...
The system is as stingy as ever, not even leaving a proper outer packaging.
"Halt! All troops, form ranks!"
Suddenly, Mulan's voice rang out again, and the entire army came to an abrupt halt.
This caused Li Qingyu's chest to collide directly with the back of Hua Mulan's head, making Li Qingyu feel slightly uncomfortable.
"Hiss, you feel so cool, Lieutenant."
Mulan, who had been bumped on the back of the head by Li Qingyu, rubbed the back of her head with her small hands.
Unfortunately, because its head is too big and its arms are too short, it can only massage a limited number of areas.
"General, what's wrong? Why did you stop?"
Holding the silver-white box, Li Qingyu was somewhat puzzled. Hadn't they just said they were going to the island?
"Lieutenant, I have a feeling that this island ahead could be blown up at any moment."
"Maybe we shouldn't go?"
Could it explode at any moment?
Forehead...
Li Qingyu roughly guessed which of the last seeded players from Blue Star was on the island.
......
Just as Li Qingyu approached the island.
Xiaofu, who was growing mushrooms on the island, also discovered the presence of Li Qingyu's large force.
They sensed a massive swarm of enemies approaching on the radar.
Xiaofu was overjoyed, thinking he had finally caught a big fish.
On the virtual map of Neptune Star, the Demon Race's top contender was seen amidst a large group of enemies.
Xiaofu was in a good mood and took a big gulp of the bird's roti.
There's nothing we can do.
Since joining the Civilization Competition, Xiaofu has been either launching sneak attacks or catching crabs.
Xiaofu was really frustrated. Who would have thought that such a high-level competition as the Civilization Conquest would have goals like farming or fish farming?
Shouldn't it be a clash of steel torrents, or a coordinated barrage of firepower from all sides?
Why does this feel like playing house?
but...
It seems that this time, we can finally carry out a large-scale mushroom cleanup.
