Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

As Xu Jiawei spoke, Mushroom God's lips curled up higher and higher, almost to the point of floating.

"Resolving the pressure is both simple and difficult; it's almost impossible for you to do it on your own," said the Mushroom God.

"Excuse me, what method is it?" someone couldn't help but interject, saying that whether it could be done or not, they would only know after trying.

Mushroom God was very annoyed at being interrupted and glared at the person who had spoken. The person sheepishly shrank back.

He was too hasty and forgot that the person in front of him was no ordinary person, but a god who had lived for countless years. How dare he interrupt?

The Mushroom God continued, "It's very simple. Once you reach the god level, you won't have to suffer from the oppressive power of the Dark God anymore, and you can even eliminate the oppressive power."

Reaching god-level? Everyone gasped in astonishment; this was impossible for any of them, the players.

This is really putting them in a difficult position. "Is there any other way?" Xu Jiawei asked.

"Once you reach level 80, the pressure you feel will be much lower. Why don't you just level up to 80?" Mushroom God rolled his eyes.

"Just reach level 80, right?" She doesn't understand. Is reaching level 80 really that easy?

Xu Jiawei also secretly rolled her eyes.

There's no other way. Do we have to keep dragging this out? If we wait until she reaches level 80, won't it be too late?

"Heh, I knew you couldn't do it. Fine, I'm kind-hearted, so I'll help you resolve the pressure issue. As for the clones, you'll have to figure that out yourselves." The Mushroom God was in a very good mood and decided to help them one more time out of compassion.

"Thank you, Mushroom God, you are truly the kindest god in the world." Compliments rang out from all around.

Mushroom God nodded with feigned modesty, then glanced at Xu Jiawei with his beady eyes, saying, "See, woman, besides you, there are others who admire me. You'd better perform well."

Xu Jiawei's lips twitched. Even though Mushroom God hadn't said anything, she understood.

"When are we leaving?" Mushroom God asked.

Xu Jiawei was unaware, but the leader immediately replied, "We'll set off once we've resolved the source of pollution on this island."

The Mushroom God clicked his tongue, then sat down in a chair, crossed his legs, and said, "Hurry up and go. How long do you want to keep me waiting?"

The crowd scattered like birds, running away as if fleeing. Xu Jiawei wanted to run out with them, but Mushroom God called her back, so she had no choice but to stop.

"Your mushroom pet hasn't broken through level 70 yet, has it?" The Mushroom God slightly raised his "chin" and looked at her.

Xu Jiawei nodded and immediately asked, "Do you have a way to make it break through?"

The Mushroom God shook its head and said, "Even I need the Fountain of Life, how could it possibly escape? Don't get your hopes up."

"Alright." Xu Jiawei was slightly disappointed. If she couldn't break through, why did the Mushroom God bring up the rainbow?

"Although it can't break through level 70, I have a way to make it break through level 80 directly after obtaining the Fountain of Life. When that time comes, come with me. It will be good for you too," said the Mushroom God.

Xu Jiawei was overjoyed for a moment, but then became worried again. In the end, she needed the Fountain of Life, but where could she get it now? She would have to wait until the natural disaster was over to obtain it.

Forget it, don't think about it too much. Right now, she needs to find a way to improve her strength. Her progress is too slow right now. If it weren't for the attribute mushrooms she gets every day, she would have already stopped improving.

Xu Jiawei rubbed her forehead. The higher her level, the slower her progress became.

All she could do was improve her skill proficiency, especially her spatial skills, which increased in damage as her proficiency improved.

She even had to find a way to forge the isolation barrier into a passive skill.

She left the conference hall and followed the others to the source of pollution. Everyone could go to the source of pollution, but getting the rewards depended on individual strength. Coincidentally, Xu Jiawei was one of the best players.

Dealing with advanced sources of pollution is a piece of cake. Thanks to the existence of the Mushroom God, even the Dark God's avatar doesn't dare to cause trouble for Xu Jiawei.

He estimated that they were waiting for them at the heart of the contamination, ready to wipe out all the players. The current safety was merely the calm before the storm.

After purification, Xu Jiawei put the treasure chest into Rainbow's belly. The other players looked at Xu Jiawei with envy. This pet of the pro player is really useful. It can also be used as an external backpack, and its combat power is comparable to the pro player's.

They were incredibly envious. Their own pets were still stuck at level 20. They wondered how the expert's pets could be so powerful. Some of them couldn't help but ask.

Xu Jiawei slapped her forehead; she had completely forgotten that it could also increase the level of players' pets.

She had just crafted a batch of pet breakthrough potions a while ago, and if she sold them, they could probably help the top 100 players' pets break through once.

Of course, Xu Jiawei did not intend to do that. She planned to sell one bottle to each of the top 50 players on the ranking list. After breaking through, if their level reached the upper limit again, they could buy another bottle from her, and so on.

She wanted to create several level 50 pets first, so that the human's combat power could be significantly improved.

However, let's go back and discuss it with the leaders first. Let's leave this matter to the authorities. As for Xu Jiawei, she plans to collect supplies with her pet. Now is the most suitable time to collect supplies.

The official base was not far from the source of pollution, less than ten minutes away. Xu Jiawei gave the medicine to the officials and asked them to sell it, setting the price according to the normal price set by the Pharmacist Association.

Upon hearing that Xu Jiawei was going to sell pet breakthrough potions, Grace approached her and said, "Apprentice, if you're going to sell potions, how could you forget about me?"

She had completely forgotten that Grace could also concoct pet breakthrough potions, so she immediately asked, "Master, how many potions do you have left?"

"Not many, only a few thousand bottles." Grace smiled.

But... only... a few thousand bottles?? A few thousand bottles, is that a small number? How is that related to "but"?

"But I'm not going to lower the price," Grace said.

She approached Hsu Chia-wei hoping to use Hsu Chia-wei's connections to get in touch with the authorities, and Hsu Chia-wei immediately nodded.

The potions were handed over to the official team. The official team was worried about how to distribute the 100 bottles of potions, but now they don't have to worry anymore. They can distribute them directly without worrying about running out of potions.

Of course, since the official team obtained the right to sell the products, they naturally wanted to buy them themselves first. In addition to the official team, the top 100 high-level players were also among the first to obtain the right to purchase.

They certainly knew that the most important thing was to obtain a few powerful pets for breakthroughs, and these high-level players were the ones who got the most help.

They must make full use of these potions, and they will not allow anyone to buy them in advance when their pet's level is not high enough.

They absolutely could not be made criminals; a thorough investigation was essential. The authorities immediately began the plan.
