Chapter 46: Eclipse Rainy Season Day 5 Monster Fishing Rod
By six o'clock in the afternoon, the mandatory eight hours had finally come to an end. However, Yu Luowei glanced at the overall leaderboard and saw that his ranking was relatively low, just over 100. There were definitely many fish with higher luck ahead of him, so Yu Luowei didn't rush back, intending to continue fishing until the leaderboard rewards were distributed.
Two hours was still a bit long. Even with the help of the fountain, Yu Luowei's mental strength still decreased a little.
Carrying today's loot and the glutinous rice balls, Yu Luowei returned to the shelter. She had opened the boxes as soon as they were outside, so she rested for a while to recover her mental strength.
However, after this reply, Yu Luowei clearly felt that his mental strength had increased a bit, and his mental defense was also stronger. It was estimated that after waiting for a few more days, the upper limit of his mental strength would also increase, which was also good news.
After two hours of hard work, Yu Luowei's ranking rose to 28th, earning her 3,000 activity points. This shocked her. Opening treasure chests only earned less than 300 points, and she hadn't expected the majority of them to be ranking bonus points. However, in that case, the treasure chest fishing rod seemed a bit useless to her.
After opening the event mall, I could finally purchase basic materials like stone. However, the prices for these materials had also skyrocketed. At Yu Luowei's Wood Shop, one point sold two pieces of wood. Charcoal was a bit more expensive than before, with a compressed biscuit costing 10 charcoal pieces. But in the event mall, one piece of wood cost 2 event points, one piece of stone cost 4, and one piece of charcoal cost 1. A breakthrough stone cost 1,000 event points each.
From this perspective, the points she earned today were not that many. She also opened a height breakthrough stone in her treasure chest, so Yu Luowei exchanged them all for stones, cement and red bricks.
Before she came in, the water level had risen to more than half of the platform. Yu Luowei directly raised the height to 50 meters.
After heating up the food she'd prepared earlier for dinner, Yu Luowei went downstairs to check the pantry. Since the electricity had just been plugged in, the humidity was still quite high. If she weren't worried about the dryness being bad for some vegetables and the temperature rising, Yu Luowei would have wanted to light a bonfire in the basement.
However, he got two more electricity cards today, which was quite a lot. Yu Luowei decided to keep the electricity cards on until the settlement day, and to wash the bed in the washing machine tomorrow.
The others were busy exchanging materials, upgrading their base, and crafting a physical dehumidifier. Yu Luowei also took advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune on charcoal. Others also had charcoal blueprints, but they didn't have nearly as much wood. If they wanted to make charcoal, they had to buy it from the wood shop, so Yu Luowei could still make some money.
After tidying up, Yu Luowei went to bed and entered the next day in her dream.
As soon as eight o'clock arrived, the game sent a new prompt:
Hi everyone! I forgot to tell you yesterday that throwing trash into the water will also result in a loss of activity points! The amount of points deducted depends on the type and quality of the trash. But I'm sure you wouldn't throw trash into the water even if I didn't tell you, right?
In addition, the surrounding normal environment has been temporarily replaced with an underwater environment, and some important resource points need to be protected by resource protection cards. If a resource protection card is not used before today, the resource point will be destroyed.
Okay, everyone, please accept today's fishing rods! 】
The prompt confirmed what Yu Luowei said yesterday. The rest had nothing to do with her. The important resource points around her had already been well protected.
Opening her email, she discovered that today's fishing rod was a monster fishing rod. This suited Yu Luowei's taste perfectly. Setting up the fishing rod just like yesterday, Yu Luowei prepared various weapons and magic spells, ready to deliver a fatal blow the moment the monster took the bait.
Monsters appear about once every half an hour or forty minutes, and their levels are usually below level four, making them fairly easy to defeat. Ma Tuan has grown again today, reaching level four, and thanks to his constant consumption of Life Fruit, his stats are even stronger than a level four boss. Now that he's helping out, it'll be even easier to defeat.
After defeating four or five monsters, Yu Luowei wanted to go down to the water to take a look. After changing into the Black Abyss suit and defeating the newly caught monsters, Yu Luowei gave Ma Tuan some instructions and entered the water from the stairs.
The water had transformed into an underwater world, filled with all sorts of aquatic plants, corals, and small fish. Yu Luowei swam around the base. With the Black Abyss suit, she didn't need to surface for air. Using ice magic, she caught a dozen fish underwater. After about half an hour, she returned to the base.
It just so happened that a new monster had been hooked. It was a fish-shaped monster. Yu Luowei hadn't put away the ice harpoon in his hand yet, so he rushed forward to attack and solved the problem in just a few moves.
After defeating the monster, Yu Luowei decided to rest at the base before going back in. During this time, she opened the manual, restocked some goods at the trading market, and then opened the chat channel.
The probability of getting each type of fishing rod is one in three. Today, many people lost their lives because they got the monster fishing rod, and the number of people dropped sharply.
However, a strange situation occurred in the channel. Several people with a luck value of 10 also got the monster fishing rod, but they did not catch a single monster when using it all day.
Not sure if this was good luck or bad luck, Yu Luowei suddenly felt fortunate that her luck value was not 10. She relied on the Monster Fishing Rod to increase her activity points.
After spending some leisure time, Yu Luowei fought a new monster and went into the water again. This time her target was the bottom of the water.
The water was about twenty meters deep today, and it took Yu Luowei a while to reach the bottom. Fortunately, the Black Abyss suit was very powerful, and there was no pressure to worry about, so Yu Luowei could move freely.
After swimming underwater for a while, Yu Luowei found some ore. After holding it in her hand, she confirmed that it was copper ore, so she dug some up and also caught some shrimps and crabs.
This trip back and forth took quite a while. By the time Luo Wei returned, Ma Tuan had already defeated two monsters. It would take nine days for the next growth, and ten level four monsters to be killed, so Ma Tuan could use this opportunity to accumulate some.
With such efficiency, Ma Tuan is really the best helper in this game world! Yu Luowei touched Ma Tuan's head. Unfortunately, the Fruit of Life was gone. She could only take out Jade Bamboo Shoots, fruits and crispy meat to supplement Ma Tuan's meal.
Seeing that Ma Tuan handled it so skillfully, Yu Luowei felt relieved. After resting for a while, he went straight into the water to explore again.
This time I also caught some shells and starfish to decorate the house. However, the water was surprisingly clean with no monsters or treasure chests, and I didn't see any trash. I really don't know where the things I caught with my fishing rod came from.
Today's time was spent fishing for monsters, fighting monsters, and going in the water. At six o'clock, Yu Luowei checked the leaderboard and saw that she had returned to the top. Fighting monsters was indeed her comfort zone.
However, in order to improve her mental strength, Yu Luowei couldn't go back yet, so she stayed outside for a while. But the monsters at night were more frenzied than those during the day, and her mental strength was also declining, so she returned to the shelter before 8 o'clock.
Having caught so many fish today, Yu Luowei decided to have a fish hot pot. She prepared the hot pot base and cut the fish into pieces. Yu Luowei didn't know much about fish; some she couldn't tell if they were from the game world or from Blue Planet. Therefore, she carefully read the instructions before cutting a new type of fish.
The dishes were ready, and the leaderboard rewards had arrived. Leaving the pot simmering, Yu Luowei accepted the 5,000 points for first place, purchased acid-resistant paint, and raised the height by another 5 meters to maintain first place. He then added acid-resistant paint to the base and platform.
By this time, the pot was boiling, and Yu Luowei quickly returned to the table and began to add the fish. The aroma attracted the glutinous rice balls, so Yu Luowei fed them one. Seeing that the glutinous rice balls didn't find it spicy, she added more to give today's little hero a treat.
It is really convenient to eat hot pot when you have a big appetite. One person can eat a lot of different dishes. Yu Luowei was very satisfied with the meal.
After packing up, Yu Luowei went to the forest farm to plant trees. After such a long period of use, the forest farm has been upgraded to the second level, with a larger internal space and more trees that can be planted.
The forest farm also needs to be raised, but its area is calculated based on the area of the surrounding environment it occupies, which is already included in the base area. If it is calculated based on the internal area, then even if Yu Luowei is sold, there is no way to raise it this high.
For this reason, unless you observe specifically at the base, it is difficult to find the forest farm on the water through the rain curtain, but it is easier to see the base in the forest farm.
After returning from the forest farm, Yu Luowei discovered that his Flame Sword and Flame Cloak were sold out again. After checking the chat channel, he realized that most of the monsters today were marine creatures, and flame-based weapons and equipment could bring out greater advantages.
This was a perfect opportunity for Yu Luowei to seize the opportunity and quickly produced and put a new batch of products on the shelves. Others might have the blueprints, but they didn't have as much fire as Yu Luowei. Even if they sold them, they could only sell a small portion. Therefore, Yu Luowei could be said to have monopolized this industry.
Sharing intel with friends, we all chose to participate in the rankings, so we all had eight hours of mandatory use time. Only Lin Zhixia got a trash fishing rod today, while everyone else got treasure chest or monster fishing rods.
According to Lin Zhixia, the garbage caught is all in a sealed transparent box. You can first sort it by appearance. If that doesn't work, you can open it. Although there is a smell, it will disappear quickly after closing it.
But overall the classification is relatively simple, and the types of garbage are relatively common, nothing particularly disgusting, so she can still accept it.
This made everyone else feel a little relieved. Especially Yu Luowei. Cleaning up her own trash was acceptable, but she didn't know where the trash she caught came from. She would rather kill monsters for three days than use a rubbish fishing rod.
After chatting for a while and finally confirming that every part of the base was coated with acid-resistant paint, Yu Luowei took a bath and went to bed. Ma Tuan had grown up this time, and the previous nest could no longer accommodate him.
After looking at the trading market and the points mall, Yu Luowei found nothing particularly good, so she let Ma Tuan, who had just taken a bath, sleep on the bed for the time being. When she was free, she would use the remaining willow branches to weave a nest for it.
