Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

The light disappeared not long after it was fully revealed. Xu Jiawei watched as the black cocoon of light gradually vanished. The octopus jumped out of the cocoon and hopped onto Si Yunming's shoulder.

Si Yunming raised an eyebrow, seemingly somewhat surprised.

"What's wrong?" Xu Jiawei asked.

Si Yunming said, "The octopus has gained one more attribute."

Xu Jiawei was not surprised, because her little pink and red earthworms also had two attributes.

"Now the octopus has an additional light attribute." With one light and one dark attribute, Si Yunming's confidence in killing the priest increased even more, and he looked at Xu Jiawei with emotion.

"Thank you," Si Yunming said sincerely.

"You're welcome. You also gave me two high-level attribute fruits before, so we're even now," Xu Jiawei said.

She also checked the properties of the red earthworm.

(Comment: A traitor, forever rebellious, always ready to betray his master; every encounter is like opening a blind box.)

The Red Earthworm's advancement grants control skills. With the Red Earthworm's upgrade, Xu Jiawei has more control options, increasing her chances of defeating the High Priest.

Luckily, I checked the Red Earthworm's stats beforehand; otherwise, I might have made mistakes when we tried to coordinate them later.

"High Priest, I'm here!" Xu Jiawei entered the stone cave of the trap with full confidence and soon arrived at the stone door. This time, in addition to Si Yunming, even Caihong went to help push the door open.

While it was said to be pushing the door open, the main purpose was actually to prevent the door from being opened quickly by the force from inside, to control the speed at which the door opened, and to buy Xu Jiawei as much time as possible so that they could launch a few more surprise attacks beforehand.

The door opened a crack, and Xu Jiawei quickly constructed a photon meteor and shot it into the doorway. The photon meteor flew in, and this time there were no screams. It seems that these people have all learned their lesson and can't do this anymore, wasting hundreds of mana.

Xu Jiawei kicked the door open, and Si Yunming immediately rushed towards the little priest behind the wall, while Xu Jiawei, Rainbow, Red Earthworm, and Little Pink surrounded the high priest.

Of course, this also included the little octopus, which bared its teeth and claws and pounced at the High Priest, only to miss its target. Xu Jiawei was speechless.

It seems that marine creatures are indeed not very effective on land; they are too slow. The little octopus was furious and spat out a ball of light, continuously firing it towards the High Priest. The High Priest simply jumped lightly to dodge the attacks.

The red earthworm divided itself into 10 segments, surrounding the High Priest from all sides. The High Priest searched for a way out, but the upgraded red earthworm was extremely fast, even the High Priest was somewhat ashamed of his speed, and could not escape, being entangled by the red earthworm.

The high priest began to struggle desperately, and cracks appeared on the red earthworm's body. Suddenly, the high priest froze, as if he had been hit by something, his eyes seeing stars and spinning.

Xu Jiawei's face showed a look of surprise. She didn't expect to successfully trigger the dizziness on the first try. Xiao Fen took the opportunity to use the high temperature field to cover the high priest, and the little octopus also wrapped around it, adding a layer of protection for the red earthworm.

Rainbow rushed up and hugged the High Priest. With those three seconds, the situation instantly turned in Xu Jiawei's favor. The Red Earthworm immediately used all its poison and paralysis on the High Priest. After regaining consciousness, the High Priest felt weak all over and numb all over.

My whole body was burning with pain.

He looked around, trying to understand the situation, and then his face was filled with horror. He never expected that he would lose consciousness and end up in this state.

"You bunch of useless trash, come and save me!" the high priest shouted.

Several junior priests tried to come to help, but Si Yunming held them back. The high priest knew he couldn't just sit and wait to die; his opponent was far more powerful than any ordinary person.

He had to use a skill that would harm his body, but as soon as he had the thought, Xu Jiawei's photon meteor flew over.

It hit him, and he screamed in pain as his skill was interrupted. Xu Jiawei continued to unleash her skills without stopping.

The high priest disappeared without even having to use his self-destruct ability.

Xu Jiawei looked at her hand in disbelief. She'd killed him so easily? Was she actually very strong?

No, it should be said that Rainbow and the others are very strong. Although my own strength is weak, my pet is very strong. Now I'm being carried by my pet," Xu Jiawei exclaimed.

Xu Jiawei joined the battle and, together with Si Yunming, dealt with all the minor priests.

"Looks like we're pretty strong after all," Xu Jiawei said, both of them somewhat surprised that they had killed the person so easily.

"Then let's continue. Try to finish your upgrade quest today," Si Yunming said.

Since neither of them is tired right now, let's continue.

The two quickly left the place.

Using the navigation tool again, they sat on top of the rainbow to rest. With the rainbow, even their travel time became faster, and they soon arrived at the next trap.

Using the same method, Si Yunming managed to hold off the ordinary priest, but this time Xu Jiawei wasn't as lucky as before. After the red earthworm trapped the high priest, it didn't trigger a stun. The high priest struggled desperately, and soon cracks appeared on the red earthworm's body.

The red earthworm hurriedly injected toxins and paralysis, but the effect was not good. Although the high priest's power had weakened somewhat, the damage was still too much for the red earthworm's defense to withstand.

It was quickly broken free, and Little Pink frantically chased after the High Priest, but its speed was no match for him.

Xu Jiawei seized the opportunity to release a cocoon of light, trapping the High Priest inside and buying Xiaofen three seconds. Xiaofen quickly surrounded the High Priest.

The high-temperature domain was activated. After the High Priest broke free of the light cocoon, he immediately struck the high-temperature domain, causing cracks to appear. The red earthworm rushed up again and trapped the person.

Xu Jiawei took the opportunity to construct a photon meteor. Upon seeing this, the High Priest immediately activated his life-burning skill, increasing his physical strength several times over. The red earthworm couldn't even last two seconds before breaking free.

Rainbow was very worried. Seeing that Xu Jiawei was still building up her skills, she quickly stood in front of Xu Jiawei. The High Priest's defense was several times stronger, but even with Rainbow's defense, her body was still pierced through.

Upon seeing this, the High Priest immediately withdrew his hand, flashed behind Xu Jiawei, and attacked her from behind.
