Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Xu Jiawei checked her attributes first. Her attributes had increased by 200. Xu Jiawei felt it was alright. Although the increase was not as much as she had imagined, Xu Jiawei was still satisfied.

It seems that the race only had its upper limit increased.

Continuing down, she came to the skills section. Xu Jiawei glanced at it and saw that two of her skills had been upgraded. They were her original main attack skills, but now they were a bit outdated and about to be phased out.

Xu Jiawei only uses her skills as a control skill when she wants to slow down her opponent. Otherwise, she uses them as a support skill and never relies on them to deal damage.

Although the skill has a high potential, the damage output is too slow. Against opponents who self-destruct once they lose, these two skills are obviously not very useful. Especially after Xu Jiawei got the Photon Meteor skill, she rarely used these two skills.

Sure enough, DoT damage is really useless in any game! People either complain that it takes too long to deal damage or that the damage is too low.

It would be great if there were a settlement skill, such as stacking damage over time first and then settling the damage all at once. That would be an extremely powerful skill.

Xu Jiawei opened the skill description and exclaimed, "As expected of an advanced skill, these two skills have been upgraded to the next level. They're even usable against these high priests now, and might even have some miraculous effects."

[Parasitic Spores: Spreads spores on the selected target. If the target inhales or comes into contact with the spores, they will suffer a continuous damage of 10 points per second, as well as a 1-second stun and slow effect. This effect cannot be cleansed or dispelled. It can be used for ranged attacks, dealing 1% of the enemy's total health as damage every 10 attacks. Mana Cost: 5]

[Light Spore: Spreads light-attribute spores on the selected target. If the target inhales or comes into contact with them, they will suffer a parasitic effect that causes them to lose 5 health points per second, double the pain, and a slowing effect. This effect cannot be cleansed or dispelled. It can be used for ranged attacks, dealing 1% of the enemy's total health as damage every 10 attacks. It deals double damage to dark-attribute creatures and has a cleansing effect. Mana cost: 2.5]

Why does Light Spore consume half the mana of Parasitic Spore? That's because, in addition to the effect of halving the mana cost of all skills, Xu Jiawei's Light God skill halves the mana cost of Light skills.

These two skills have slight differences in effect. For example, Parasitic Spores deal more damage per second. However, when attacking dark creatures, Light Spores have a double damage effect, making them stronger. Parasitic Spores also have an additional immobilization effect. If released continuously, it becomes a very powerful control skill that can lock someone down to death.

As for the double pain effect of the Light Spores, Xu Jiawei didn't take it seriously. She had already learned dark skills, so why would she be afraid of pain? Xu Jiawei had met so many priests, and only a few of them were afraid of pain.

Xu Jiawei began to consider her tactics. The parasitic spores couldn't kill these dark creatures, but what if she released both parasitic spores and light spores at the same time? Controlling them while causing them to lose health rapidly.

In this way, the enemy might not even be able to use a single skill before being controlled to death. Moreover, the damage of both skills has been greatly increased, especially the percentage-based damage skill, which used to be almost negligible but can now be triggered once every 10 seconds. If stacked, it can be triggered once every one or two seconds.

She now really wants to find those bishops who used her as a punching bag and have a go at them.

Xu Jiawei was very much looking forward to seeing if the parasitic spores would have any effect on them.

Thinking too far ahead, Xu Jiawei continued reading. This time, two more Divine Shards had been added, and there was an extra item in the Equipment tab.

This... this should be the staff of the Goddess of Light. Her experience ring is showing as a question mark because the system didn't seal it properly.

But the staff of the Goddess of Light was obtained through legitimate means; Xu Jiawei unlocked it using a weapon unlock card, which was system-authenticated. So why is it still showing "???"?

"There are so many bugs!" Xu Jiawei immediately reported to the survival system.

[Ding, the system has received feedback from the player and is now replying: Hmph, I'm happy to, you'll have to suffer!]

Xu Jiawei: ......

After closing the panel, Si Yunming waited quietly for Xu Jiawei. Xu Jiawei looked at Si Yunming and said, "Brother San Dian, I've finished looking at the panel. Let's go." They had already wasted so much time; they should hurry up and find Bai Yu and the others.

Si Yunming nodded and then said, "Okay, but when you advanced, the CEO came over and asked me to give this to you." Si Yunming handed the mushroom-shaped ring to Xu Jiawei.

"The domineering CEO??? How did he get here?" Xu Jiawei was very curious and somewhat incredulous. Wasn't the system supposed to fix the trick of summoning the domineering CEO? Besides, she didn't use the Mushroom God skill.

"Where is he now?" Xu Jiawei asked.

"He said he's leaving and told you not to look for him. What exactly is this 'domineering CEO'?" Si Yunming couldn't help but ask curiously. Judging from the 'domineering CEO's' aura, he was clearly not simple, although his face was a bit comical, ruining that aura.

Even Si Yunming couldn't help but chuckle, wondering how the others managed to hold back.

Has he left? Xu Jiawei pondered for a moment. Could it be that the domineering CEO has regained his memory? Unfortunately, she has now lost a useful laborer.

Although it was a bit of a pity, Xu Jiawei quickly adjusted. Now that the Mushroom God had recovered, there was a god to take over the world, and Xu Jiawei felt much less pressure.

With a god protecting her now, how could she, a mere level 50 trash, possibly get a chance?

Xu Jiawei picked up the ring, and the system introduction appeared.

[Mushroom God Ring: A storage ring with infinite space. No one but its owner can open it. It is immune to any restrictions and can be opened from anywhere. It is the safest storage space in the world. (Seriously, are you deliberately trying to mess with me? I curse you all!)]

The system seemed to have broken down. Xu Jiawei put the ring directly on her hand and put everything in her temporary backpack into it. Now she didn't have to worry about losing it. She could just throw the ring to someone else and become a suicide bomber.

Last time, Xu Jiawei had to go through a lot of trouble to give Si Yunming the things in her backpack, and she even threw away some unimportant items.

"Brother Three, let's go." Xu Jiawei couldn't suppress her smile. After all, good news kept coming one after another today. Xu Jiawei even suspected that today was her lucky day.

Si Yunming also smiled slightly. It seemed that this ring was very powerful. Xu Jiawei was very happy and even started humming a little tune.

At this moment, Xu Jiawei had long forgotten how she had exploited the domineering CEO, and she had forgotten about whether the CEO would retaliate. All she could think about was that she now had powerful connections, that she finally had a chance to curry favor with someone powerful.

Xu Jiawei thought that the Mushroom God had probably gone to find a way to deal with the Dark God. The more she thought about it, the happier she became. The situation was no longer one-sided, and the continent had finally found a powerful ally.
