Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

However, this does not mean going down a dead end. Each country only sends a few high-level players to help Mary, while everyone else goes about their business.

Xu Jiawei immediately revealed the method of creating the isolation barrier. The players were completely bewildered, but Mo Feng, being a genius, quickly grasped the principle and learned it in less than 10 minutes. As a pharmacist, Grace was also quick to learn and mastered it in less than half an hour.

Mary gave a wry smile. These two were truly freaks. She hadn't even figured it out yet, and they had already learned it. They truly deserved to be recognized as geniuses.

The other players were completely bewildered, but Si Yunming, who had the dark attribute, quickly figured out the principle. However, even if he learned it, it wouldn't be of much use to him, because he was of the dark attribute. Releasing this skill was like locking himself up, so it wasn't very effective.

While the others were deep in thought, Xu Jiawei and Si Yunming prepared to level up on their own. In a week, she wouldn't be able to level up much on her own, so it would be better to help Xiao Huihui and the others level up, especially Xiao Huihui, which had a path to break through level 80. If it could reach level 80, it could break through immediately once it found the Temple of the God of Emotions.

Having stayed here for so long, my body is practically rusting. Of course, before leaving, I need to get rid of this source of pollution. With Grace and the others' help, it's going to be very easy this time.

After that, everyone went their separate ways, planning to meet again in a week. Xu Jiawei only stayed in the high-level pollution sources and dared not go to the higher-level pollution sources.

In just one week, she eliminated three sources of pollution, and Little Grey and the others' levels steadily improved.

Little Grey is now level 73, Red Earthworm is level 74, Little Pink is level 75, and Rainbow is still level 70, unchanged.

Xu Jiawei has finally reached level 77 and is steadily progressing towards level 80. At this rate, barring any unforeseen circumstances, she should be able to reach level 80 in a month.

The official re-announcement of the meeting point prompted Xu Jiawei to immediately teleport after dealing with the source of pollution, arriving at the new island.

Xu Jiawei met Mary, whose aura was now much stronger, and the others who had weathered many storms. As for the isolation barrier that Xu Jiawei had taught, Mo Feng, Grace, and Mary learned it on the same day. Other players spent a week figuring it out, and less than 10 people had actually learned it. This was even with Xu Jiawei teaching them a half-finished product. The original skill was much more complex than it is now.

Most people who learn this skill are very talented, such as Robert and Bai Yu. Nowadays, a player's talent is almost directly proportional to their combat power. In other words, the stronger the combat power, the greater the chance of learning this skill.

Some experts felt this research was very meaningful and began to study human talent and comprehension in order to find a way to steadily increase comprehension and talent. The government expressed its full support for this.

We arrived at the familiar conference hall again. Although it was on a different island, the conference hall was exactly the same.

"Next, we need to discuss how to move freely under the pressure of the Dark God. Does anyone have any good suggestions?"

The authorities have been researching this for a week, but they still haven't come up with an effective solution. The few solutions they have come up with only work for a single person, which is driving them crazy.

They argued for a whole week, but there was no progress at all.

Even Xu Jiawei couldn't do anything about this. If she had a way, would she still be suppressed by the God of Darkness and unable to get up?

Whispers filled the hall, and even Si Yunming frowned in thought, unable to come up with any solution. He wished there was a way to remove the pressure on the entire group, like the Mushroom God did.

Oh right, there's also the Mushroom God. If all else fails, they can ask the Mushroom God for help. Although the Mushroom God said he wouldn't help, asking for help shouldn't count as taking action himself, right?

Xu Jiawei stood up and said, "Perhaps we can ask the Mushroom God for help."

Grace, however, was somewhat worried and said, "The Mushroom God said to watch our performance. If we ask for help now, won't it make the situation worse?"

"We don't need the Mushroom God to intervene; we just need to ask him for advice on how to resolve the pressure. If it were just us, we might not be able to figure it out even after thinking for months," Xu Jiawei explained.

Mo Feng was also somewhat worried, but he still said, "I agree." After all, there was no other way, was there?

The meeting chairperson stepped forward and said, "Then let's vote." He took out the ballot box and placed it in the center. Everyone wrote down whether they agreed or disagreed on a slip of paper, and then came forward one by one to vote. The ballots were then tallied.

The vote counters started a live broadcast to ensure the fairness of the vote, and in the end, the vote count was 108:2, giving them a huge advantage.

Don't misunderstand, the other two votes were not against the motion, but rather abstentions.

Upon seeing that the proposal had been approved, Xu Jiawei took a deep breath and immediately used the Mushroom God skill.

The Mushroom God was incredibly responsive to his successor's every request. In less than two seconds, his figure appeared in the conference hall. Under normal circumstances, even if a god were to respond, it would be considered fast if it took less than ten minutes. A god as proactive as the Mushroom God was extremely rare.

Mushroom God quickly scanned his surroundings, then glanced sideways at Xu Jiawei. He said nothing, but his expression seemed to say it all: "Woman, what are you doing now? I'm busy. Speak quickly if you have something to say."

Xu Jiawei glanced at the Mushroom God and noticed that the Mushroom God's strength had increased again, and its aura was more powerful. Could it be that the Mushroom God was busy leveling up and improving its strength?

That's really rare, considering that the information she received was that the Mushroom God didn't like to work hard and gave up after reaching the god level. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lived for so long to reach level 95. If it were any other god, he would probably have reached level 99 long ago.

I have to say, since Mushroom God regained his memories, he went from level 90 to level 96. He must have worked really hard. I bet he worked harder than he did during the first half of his life when he was just lazing around.

"Respected Mushroom God, your strength has improved again, you are truly amazing." Xu Jiawei was the first to offer a compliment.

Mushroom God was very pleased, and his expression improved considerably. The corners of his mouth, which had been pursed into a straight line, were slightly upturned, and he couldn't suppress them no matter what he did.

Even his tone softened considerably as he said, "Speak, what is it?"

"Respected Mushroom God, could you teach us some methods to resist the oppressive power of the Dark God?"

After Xu Jiawei finished asking her question, everyone looked at Mushroom God with nervous anticipation.

"You guys aren't completely stupid, you actually came to ask me. I thought you'd just stubbornly resist," Mushroom God sneered.

"Your knowledge is far beyond our reach, so we can only think of asking you for help," Xu Jiawei said.
