Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

If Rainbow had remained outside, Xu Jiawei might have died even faster, and Rainbow and the others might not have survived either.

Even escaping would be much more difficult, and they would have to find a way to rescue the pet beasts. In that case, there would be a few more hostages, and Mo Feng and Grace might have to stay there.

Both of them were somewhat relieved to have survived a close call. This Dark God was truly full of malice towards her, and his desire to kill her had reached its peak.

Having failed to kill her this time, he will now devise an even more elaborate plan. In fact, Xu Jiawei also escaped death this time; if it weren't for the teacher's intervention, she would already be dead.

Each time she escaped danger, an even more perilous situation awaited her next time.

She doesn't know what the next pollution source will be like. She can't go to higher-level pollution sources; if she does, only death awaits her. Perhaps this natural disaster will last longer than she imagined.

"Don't go to any more high-level or higher pollution sources. Let's deal with all the low-level pollution sources first, and then we can consider going to high-level or top-level pollution sources," Si Yunming said.

Xu Jiawei immediately understood what Si Yunming was thinking; he meant that it would be safer to act with other players.

However, given the Dark God's murderous intent towards her, it was incredibly unlucky for the players who were assigned to the same island as her.

It is highly likely that the entire army will be wiped out.

"This is the official decision. They will choose to go to the same island as you, all voluntarily, all for the purpose of defeating the Dark God," Si Yunming comforted her. After learning about Xu Jiawei's ordeal, the authorities had activated the best contingency plan, with everyone prioritizing Xu Jiawei's protection.

Xu Jiawei is the primary solution to the problem of the Dark God. Everything revolves around nurturing her, and her life must be protected at all costs.

They can't put all their eggs in one basket. If something really happens to Xu Jiawei, there are other options, such as the player with the power of words that the authorities are protecting. According to the expert group's prediction, this power may eventually be able to grant any wish, or even distort spacetime.

Even if humanity were to perish in the end, as long as the power of that Word Spirit player is preserved, it might be possible to reverse time and resurrect everyone. But this is a last resort.

They are also researching magic that can teleport people back to Earth, but they haven't succeeded yet. In order to save the player community, the official team is also looking for other solutions.

Xu Jiawei was quite interested in this player with the power of words and wanted to meet him, but the official team was keeping it too well hidden, and even Xu Jiawei couldn't see him, for fear that something might go wrong.

Xu Jiawei was genuinely curious whether words could truly come true.

She decided to stop thinking about it and focus on gathering some food. Her food was almost gone. After the island incident, the pollution hadn't been cleaned up. After all, it was one of the major pollution centers, making it difficult to purify. Right now, they had only stopped supplying other pollution sources.

The pollution here remains very high, and it won't be easy to solve.

The only way to purify this place is through the environment's own regenerative abilities. Xu Jiawei asked, "System, can the purification equipment we obtained earlier purify this place?"

Every time she solved a pollution source, she was bathed in the purifying rain. Now that the purifying rain is gone, she is still a little unaccustomed to it.

[Ding, it is recommended that players do not do this. The purification effect on equipment is limited. The system will purify it gradually afterwards, so players do not need to worry.]

"Okay." Xu Jiawei shrugged, it seemed there was no chance.

She continued to drink the medicine to treat her injuries. Although she had Grace's medicine, one bottle only restored 80% of her injuries. She still had to recover the remaining 20% ​​on her own.

As for Si Yunming, he handed over the task of collecting supplies to the little octopus and sat on the ground, also treating his injuries. Si Yunming suffered severe internal injuries. Forcibly activating the self-destruction caused serious damage to his body, and was then stopped by the Dark God with violent means, making his injuries even more serious.

He can still move now, all thanks to the potion Grace gave him, but it will take at least a week to fully recover.

Xu Jiawei's expression turned serious. The situation was critical just now, and she couldn't say anything, but now that they were safe, she had to talk to Si Yunming.

"Three-point brother, don't do such dangerous things in the future. If you choose to self-destruct every time there is danger, then no one will be able to save you." Xu Jiawei's words were not harsh, because if she had the choice, she would also choose to do so. The reason she objected was because she did not like her partner attacking the enemy by self-destruction.

If everyone chooses this path, then no one will value their own life.

Once they lose their will to live, their chances of survival drop dramatically.

"I understand. You feel the same way. I don't want anything to happen to you either," Si Yunming said solemnly.

"Okay, then it's a deal. No one is allowed to use self-destruct skills unless we're completely desperate," Xu Jiawei said.

Seeing Si Yunming's pale face, Xu Jiawei took out a bunch of medicines. She wondered when Si Yunming would recover, which was really worrying.

"Let's discuss our future plans and how we can gain the upper hand in the negotiations." Xu Jiawei took out a pen and paper. Before meeting with the officials, she wanted to discuss things with Si Yunming first.

Si Yunming nodded and then said, "The two masters have made their meaning very clear. This cooperation will not be easy, and it will be difficult to succeed using ordinary methods."

Xu Jiawei frowned. Players who had started their professional activities in this world had already seen what kind of people the advanced professional masters were like.

Therefore, it is basically impossible to get them to cooperate honestly. What methods can be used to get people in high positions with a strong sense of superiority to cooperate sincerely?

Are there any other ways besides becoming stronger?

Xu Jiawei pondered. She was not even level 80 yet. It could be said that the highest level player in the player group was not even level 80. It was impossible for her to take the initiative in the negotiation. Even with the help of Grace and Teacher Mofeng, it was impossible.

It's because the players are too weak; they're no match for a group of level 89 players.

"Then let's make an example of them!" As soon as Si Yunming finished speaking, Xu Jiawei's eyes lit up instantly. This method was feasible!

Although she is only level 76 now, it is not impossible for her to defeat someone at level 89. It's not like she hasn't fought a level 89 bishop before.

Defeating someone in front of them fair and square will have a deterrent effect.

As long as the person fighting her doesn't have god-level skills, she has a chance to survive against them by relying on her invincibility and other abnormal skills. The invincibility skill is practically a bug in the game for those below god-level.
