Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Once the two had adjusted their condition, they prepared to eliminate the insect eggs at the source of the catastrophe and completely destroy the temple before dealing with the trap.

Si Yunming stood up. "How is it now?" Xu Jiawei asked.

Si Yunming nodded. He felt much better after resting for a while. He slung the greatsword over his shoulder and set off first. He was now very close to completing the final quest for level 40, and he couldn't help but feel excited and eager to finish it as soon as possible.

Xu Jiawei followed, and the two walked quickly forward. The light from the burning insect eggs illuminated the entire cave for Xu Jiawei and the others, making the cave brightly lit and guiding their way.

The two quickened their pace, and with the help of the light, they noticed that the carving marks were more obvious. Following these marks, they soon found another stone door.

This time they weren't so cautious, because the high priest who had set up the trap here had just gone to support the high-level natural disaster source and had been dealt with. There shouldn't be many people guarding this place now.

Xu Jiawei kicked the stone door away, and even Si Yunming turned to look at her, startled.

Xu Jiawei coughed a few times, "Ahem, I got a little excited and didn't pay attention to the pressure."

Si Yunming turned his head back and focused his attention on the area behind the door. Inside the trap, the priests seemed to be startled as well, looking frantically toward the stone door. Some of them had already frantically started casting spells, but the spells were all over the place, and many of their spells even conflicted with each other.

They seemed not to have anticipated that these people would actually come. Both high priests went to provide support, yet they still couldn't kill the intruders.

"Don't panic!" shouted a man who was clearly dressed as a high priest.

Unexpectedly, a high priest was still stationed here, and Xu Jiawei immediately rushed over.

The high priest was clearly flustered. He hadn't expected these people to survive. What about the other high priests? He didn't dare to think about it anymore.

However, he is the only high priest here now, and he still needs to give orders, so he cannot panic.

Although he told himself not to panic, his frequent mistakes in command revealed his unease. As soon as he made a mistake, Xu Jiawei seized the opportunity, and the red earthworm quickly wrapped around him, while the little pink one also ignited.

In the end, Xu Jiawei used two Photon Meteors to finish the battle, and casually blasted the Photon Meteors into the crowd of the Little Priests.

Flames spread from the crowd, and the minor priests howled in pain, struggling desperately on the ground, while Xu Jiawei floated in the air, coldly watching all of this.

At that moment, Xu Jiawei and her group really felt like the villains who wiped out the protagonist's entire family, and they also got a taste of what it was like to be a villain.

Not long after, all the priests died, and Xu Jiawei leveled up again, reaching level 44. Judging from the experience bar, she would soon reach level 45.

"Is the mission complete?" Xu Jiawei asked hurriedly.

"It's done. Let's leave. I'm about to evolve my race," Si Yunming said.

Xu Jiawei went ahead this time. They needed to leave quickly, in case there was anything unusual about this place, and perhaps the high priests could get here quickly.

The two soon left the waterfall cave, and after walking for about half an hour, Xu Jiawei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Three-point brother, I'll keep an eye on things for you, you go and evolve." Last time Si Yunming was guarding her, now it's her turn.

Si Yunming nodded solemnly, took a deep breath, and walked into the bedroom.

"Wait a minute." Xu Jiawei called out to Si Yunming, "Brother San Dian, let me stand next to you." Her Light Purification passive skill was constantly being released. What if she could give Si Yunming a Light attribute? She didn't believe that Si Yunming couldn't absorb it if he was constantly immersed in the Light attribute.

Si Yunming also realized what Xu Jiawei wanted to do, so he nodded. If he could really awaken the Light attribute, it would be a good thing. He would no longer have to worry about being controlled by the evil god.

Xu Jiawei sat down beside him, and Si Yunming closed his eyes, then seemed to fall asleep, enveloped in darkness.

As Si Yunming began his evolution, he constantly sensed a source of light beside him that conflicted with his attributes, causing his energy to stagnate. Suddenly, a burst of dark energy erupted from his body, completely enveloping him.

Si Yunming quickly lost consciousness. In the instant he lost consciousness, he thought to himself that he had disappointed Xu Jiawei, and things had taken the opposite turn.

Xu Jiawei waited idly to the side, and three hours passed. Rainbow had even sent her underlings out to find treasure chests. There were hardly any players near the high-level source point, so leaving the chests there would be a waste. Therefore, her underlings all went to pick up the chests.

Xu Jiawei took the opportunity to open the box.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for obtaining the following: Natural Disaster Information*1, Gold Equipment*2, Epic Staff*1, High-Grade Attribute Fruit*1, Weapon Crafting Blueprint*1, Magic Skill Book*1]

"Huh, what's a magic skill book?" Xu Jiawei stopped opening the box and began to examine the magic skill book. Xu Jiawei flipped it open and looked at it. This thing was called a skill book, but it was more like a notebook, just like the apothecary's notes that Xu Jiawei had picked up before. It recorded strange magic invented by some unknown magician.

What interests Xu Jiawei most are the magic spells that make life easier, such as how to make magical tools and cleaning spells, which are not limited by attributes and can be learned by anyone.

However, after Xu Jiawei learned these skills, they weren't counted in her skill list. They were more like ordinary uses of magic, simply making her life more convenient.

Magical gadgets are more like electrical appliances in this world. For example, there are magical gadgets that can wash clothes, which are equivalent to washing machines in the real world, as well as ovens, magic lamps, and so on.

Xu Jiawei was quite engrossed in reading it. She had memorized the potion manual from before, but she couldn't experiment with it now without a cauldron. However, she could experiment with these small spells and magic circles at any time.

She gestured in the air and began practicing the Cleansing Spell based on the flow of magic. After a few experiments, Xu Jiawei mastered it.

She used it on herself, and soon Xu Jiawei felt as if she had shed a layer of skin, feeling relaxed all over, and she had never felt so refreshed.

She seemed cleaner than she had washed herself, and besides, there were no conditions to allow her to take a bath right now, because the bathroom was broken and she couldn't take a bath at all. She hadn't bathed for a week and already smelled terrible.

She skimmed through the book and found several magic circles at the end. One was for quickly restoring energy, and the other was exactly what Xu Jiawei needed: a magic circle for quickly restoring mental energy.

She had never known what mental strength was before, but here she learned that it was called soul value. Magic actually consumes soul energy, which Xu Jiawei could only recover by sleeping and could not recover quickly. Now she had a way to recover it quickly.

What a surprise! But soul energy... it feels a bit scary.

Fortunately, the book said that soul energy is not what she imagined. So-called soul energy is actually the energy absorbed after the soul expands, and it can be replenished after being used.
