Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

With this skill, Xu Jiawei's win rate against pollution sources will increase by at least 50%. Sure enough, there's always a way out. As for the other skill upgrades, not only is the skill damage increased, but there's also a significant improvement: the restriction that the Flame Illusion skill cannot be used while attacking has been removed.

However, it's quite strange that Little Pink, as a flame, can burn on the seabed. I wonder what it uses to burn. Does it use seawater as fuel?

However, Xu Jiawei thought about it and realized that even if Xiao Fen woke up, she couldn't do anything reckless. She still needed to improve her speed, and she didn't know what limitations Xiao Fen's skill might have, so she still needed to experiment with it.

With Xiao Fen's help, Xu Jiawei found dealing with the mutated creatures much easier. As long as Xiao Fen released her high-temperature domain to control these monsters, Xu Jiawei could defeat them without even having to dodge.

But this would not serve as practice. However, through working with Xiao Fen, Xu Jiawei discovered that Xiao Fen's skill consumes a lot of energy. Xiao Fen's own energy can only last for 10 minutes at most. If she fights with the recovery, she can last for 20 minutes. However, the stronger the opponent, the higher the energy consumption, and the recovery simply cannot keep up.

Although these monsters cannot break through the domain, they can accelerate its consumption, causing the domain to disappear quickly. If the monsters at the source of pollution are too strong, Xiaofen will not be able to hold out for long. Therefore, Xiaofen's skill can only be used to deal with the priests at critical moments.

Xu Jiawei had to deal with those mutated creatures on her own. In the pet backpack, the red earthworm was biting its vines, its teeth almost breaking. It had been on guard against Little Gray stealing its home, but it never expected that Little Pink would steal its chickens. It thought it was the strongest pet of its master, but it was defeated by one careless move.

But considering that Little Pink was older than itself, it wasn't so bad. After all, it still had Rainbow, the boss, to keep it in check. Rainbow didn't even have a way to break through level 70, but it already had Ice Crystal Stones.

It also longed to go out, but now the limelight was being stolen by Little Pink, and the red earthworm was on the verge of tears, completely forgetting how rebellious it used to be.

Xu Jiawei was busy testing Xiaofen's abilities and didn't pay attention to the red earthworm's emotions. By the time she noticed, the red earthworm was already in tears, which had soaked the pet backpack. Xiao Huihui shrank to the side in disgust, having never seen a plant cry so much.

Xu Jiawei had to coax and comfort the red earthworm until it cheered up. The price was that Xu Jiawei had to keep purifying it with the ice crystal until the dark attribute inside was completely gone.

Every day, the red earthworm asks Xu Jiawei in her mind, "Is the purification complete?"

Every day, Xiao Fen haunts Xu Jiawei like a ghost. Xiao Fen looks disgusted. Although Xiao Fen is still brainless, she is much more lively than before. However, she still doesn't speak fluently and prefers to convey information in her mind.

Rainbow occasionally conveyed a sense of grievance, seemingly feeling very sad that Xu Jiawei wasn't around. Little Grey, on the other hand, acted like a little green tea, constantly conveying, "It's okay, Master, I'm different from them," expressing its uniqueness.

Although Little Grey is just a fledgling, its intelligence is even higher than that of Little Pink, Rainbow, and Red Earthworm. It can even be cunning, although Xu Jiawei thinks its cunning is still quite childish.

Although only Xiao Fen was by her side, Xu Jiawei's mind was still quite lively, with palace dramas playing out every day. It could be said that her backyard was on fire.

After practice, Xiao Fen became more and more proficient in coordinating with Xu Jiawei. However, Xu Jiawei still needed to train her speed in attacking demonic creatures, so she had to stop Xiao Fen from using the high-temperature domain.

Two more days passed, and the stress-relieving equipment that Bai Yu had mentioned was ready, made using the same materials that Xu Jiawei had given her before.

However, the quality of the materials was limited, so the equipment was only a gold-tier item. Although it was only a gold-tier item, it could still reduce the pressure by half, which was a timely help for Xu Jiawei.

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: Thank you so much, you've been a huge help. Let me know if you ever need any assistance in the future.]

Xu Jiawei was extremely excited. Sure enough, there's always a way out. With this equipment, her speed could at least double. With continuous training, returning to her original speed would no longer be a dream.

[Rain Falling: You're welcome. This equipment only used a small portion of the materials from that pile. I still owe you a lot.]

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: We don't need to be so clear about things. You've helped me a lot; you gave me defensive equipment and even saved my life.]

The defensive equipment Bai Yu gave me was very useful in protecting me from many attacks when facing the powerful messenger of the pollution source. I only gave her some materials and she got this equipment. When you think about it, she still made a profit.

[Rain Falling: I'm so happy that you approved of my equipment. It seems I'm only one step away from becoming a master blacksmith.]

[System notification: Your friend Rain Falling has sent you 1 one-time defensive shield, 3 one-time attack bombs, and 1 one-time defensive item. Please check your account.]

[Rain Falling: Jiawei, these are some little things I've made recently. I hope you'll accept them.]

[AAA Mushroom Fairy: Thank you.]

Xu Jiawei is currently facing this source of pollution and desperately needs these things. Bai Yu's help is a godsend. She picked up the equipment and examined it carefully. The manufacturing process is more refined. With Bai Yu's skill level, she should be able to make epic equipment soon.

Xu Jiawei was fiddling with the equipment when she suddenly remembered something. It seemed that someone owed her a piece of equipment. It seemed that a long time ago, during an event, she could customize an epic piece of equipment, but it had been so long and it still hadn't been completed. If it wasn't delivered soon, she wouldn't be able to use it.

A bearded blacksmith far away on the mainland couldn't help but sneeze. Who was cursing him?

He's still working hard to fulfill the unreasonable custom-made request made by some shameless bastard. It's several pages long, and if he can't complete it, wouldn't he tarnish his reputation as a master blacksmith? Even if it's a god-level piece of equipment, he'll make it to slap this rude guy in the face.

......

With this special equipment, Xu Jiawei found it much easier to dodge attacks. Even when facing level 80 mutated creatures, she was no longer in as much danger as before, relying on her reaction speed to dodge many fatal attacks.

After trying out the equipment, Xu Jiawei put it away. Wearing it during training slowed down her progress. Pressure makes people improve, and sometimes you have to be tough on yourself.
