Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

[God of Light: Passive Skill - Increases Light skill damage by 100%, reduces Light skill mana cost and casting speed by 50%.]

This skill was so powerful that Xu Jiawei didn't know what to say. With this result, her combat power was no longer just increased by 100 points of basic attributes; at the very least, it increased by two or three times.

Then she looked intently at Si Yunming, "Brother San Dian, I've made a discovery, do you want to hear it?"

Si Yunming had no idea what had happened during Xu Jiawei's evolution. She was extremely excited, and even Si Yunming was curious about what exactly had happened to make her so excited.

Si Yunming nodded under Xu Jiawei's expectant gaze. Xu Jiawei, satisfied with the response she received, said, "Brother San Dian, you should receive more baptism from the Light Skill. This way, you'll have a chance to gain an attribute during your racial breakthrough, and you might even be able to evolve your talent."

"Talent evolution?" Si Yunming asked with some surprise.

His current talent is called Black Reaper. Can it evolve further?

"Yes, this time not only did my race mutate and evolve, but my talent also evolved," Xu Jiawei said.

What she's been doing most lately is using her Light skills like crazy, which Xu Jiawei suspects is the reason for her mutation.

She thought that Si Yunming had been blessed by the Goddess of Light, but the reason he hadn't awakened his Light attribute was because he hadn't had enough contact with it. Xu Jiawei suggested that he have more contact with it.

This is a new discovery: talents can evolve.

This news is too important, Xu Jiawei plans to share it with her companions later.

But now Xu Jiawei doesn't know whether she should go to the advanced trap now. Even though she has evolved, she is still a little scared.

"Three O'Clock Bro, did you report it?" Xu Jiawei asked. This task was really too difficult, but if she gave up, it would be the same as giving up the previous two tasks and starting all over again.

Si Yunming's expression was somewhat complicated. After learning about the mission, Xu Jiawei had asked Si Yunming to report it to the system. Now Si Yunming had received a reply and said, "I got a reply. It says that there are players in our team who are over level 40. Based on our current strength, we have a chance to clear the high-level trap."

Xu Jiawei: ...So the game difficulty increases after teaming up?

Should we go to the high-level trap now? In the end, Xu Jiawei chose a compromise, "Why don't we go to the high-level natural disaster source point first to check the situation? That way, it will be easier to escape if we want to."

Si Yunming thought so too. Even if Xu Jiawei's strength increased two or three times, he still wasn't confident that he could deal with more than three high priests.

The two prepared to return to the area of ​​the advanced natural disaster source. They sat on top of Rainbow's head, and Xu Jiawei gently touched Rainbow. Rainbow was almost level 50. Once they successfully conquered the advanced traps, all three of them would level up to 50 and prepare to explore further.

[System Announcement: Congratulations to player Rainfall for resolving a natural disaster source. Congratulations!]

[The lucky one is here: Damn it, you beat me to it!]

[Rain Falling: Hahaha, I'm number one!]

[Akagi: Congratulations, congratulations! I'm almost in too, just a little bit more.]

[The lucky one is here: You two actually sneaked in!]

Seeing this, Li Ming frantically searched for Cataclysm Sources. Ordinary Cataclysm Sources were becoming increasingly rare and would likely disappear soon. The decreasing number of Cataclysm Sources did not mean that all players were rapidly becoming stronger. Most people were teaming up to farm monsters. Anyone who went to farm Cataclysm Sources alone was either foolish or extremely confident in their abilities.

According to Xu Jiawei's statistics, there are fewer than 30 players farming Cataclysm Points alone. Whether it's for the sake of safety or something else, players are now seeking stability, not excitement.

Xu Jiawei thought for a moment and then shared her discovery in their small group chat.

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: Racial evolution has a chance to lead to talent mutation evolution; you can take note of this.]

[Akagi: Can talents mutate? I thought they were fixed.]

Zhang Yunting said.

[Rain Falling: This is the first time I've ever heard of something like this, Jiawei. Has your talent evolved?]

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: Yes.]

[The ultimate lucky girl is here: Sis, how did you evolve?]

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: The following are all my speculations. I've been using Light skills a lot lately, and my Light-type abilities have greatly improved. As a result, this evolution upgrade is in the Light direction. So I suspect that to mutate or add a new attribute, you need to come into contact with that attribute more often.]

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: I think the simplest way is to suffer from this attribute. Maybe the body will absorb it, just like how the evil god transforms people with other attributes into people with dark attributes. But it's also possible that they will mutate in the opposite direction of this attribute.]

Xu Jiawei's Light attribute is a mutation that comes from the opposite direction.

[Akagi: Xiao Xu, thank you for telling us all this.]

[Rain Falling: Jiawei, I'll come find you guys after I solo-farm the intermediate-level Cataclysm source points. Don't look down on me for my low combat power!]

[The luckiest person here: I want to join too!]

[Rain Falling: I was first, you haven't even found a basic Cataclysm source yet.]

[The Lucky One is here: Hmph, I've already found it. How could I not find it with such high luck?]

[Akagi: Alright, you two, stop bickering. If Xiao Xu is right, we should both try to acquire some Light attribute; it will help us resolve the source of the natural disaster.]

They all agreed wholeheartedly, since they knew who their greatest enemy was and that the Light attribute was the most useful. Even if they weren't born with it, they had a chance to acquire an acquired attribute, and they had to cherish it, since Xu Jiawei's Light attribute was also an acquired one.

They are having a very difficult time dealing with the priests because the dark attribute is too troublesome. If it were the light attribute, they should be able to easily resolve the source of the calamity.

Xu Jiawei checked the messages as she walked, then closed the chat interface and lay down on Rainbow's body. Lying down was a way to calm her mind, as she hadn't practiced her potions or magic circles lately due to the high-pressure environment she had been living under.

They are still quite far from the advanced natural disaster source; it took them two whole hours to get there.

[System Announcement: Congratulations to player Chicheng for resolving a natural disaster source. Congratulations!]

[Rain Falling: Goodness, you said it was at the entrance, but it turns out it was at the stone entrance. No wonder you said it was just a little bit off.]

[The lucky one is here: You two are going pretty fast, one after the other. I need to bring a bug shield. Just wait for my good news.]

[Akagi: I was still a step too late, but maybe next time it will be different.]

[Rain is falling: Zhang Ge is much more lively now.]

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: Does the insect-proof shield really work when entering a Cataclysm location?]

Xu Jiawei was somewhat skeptical. Even Si Yunming's humanoid insect-repelling shield was ineffective when they entered the wormhole during the day. Was the insect-proof shield really useful?

[Rainfall: This works for low-level natural disaster sources, but I don't know about mid-level ones.]

[The lucky one is here: This also works on intermediate-level scourge sources.]

Li Ming had also entered an intermediate-level natural disaster source point, so he was quite familiar with the matter.
