Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

It just so happens that these Earthlings still have some things to finish. Giving them more time and arriving later will reduce their pressure.

Mushroom God was also giving these players more time to prepare, since, given his status, these people were under a lot of pressure and had little room to perform freely.

Xu Jiawei nodded, said goodbye to the Mushroom God, and walked into the teleportation portal. Her eyes blurred for a moment, and when she opened them again, she saw the familiar building.

Looking at the almost unchanged building, she was filled with emotion. This was where she had suffered her biggest setback. She had suffered setbacks before, but she had always retaliated. This time, however, she lacked the power to retaliate, and this matter became a knot in her heart.

She was determined to make up for all the hurt she had suffered.

After the teleportation was successful, the officials immediately got busy, not wasting a single moment, communicating with everyone present and selling potions.

Of course, people without pets cannot purchase them, but the official statement has been made that if there are any remaining stock, people can purchase them regardless of whether they have pets or not.

Everything was ready, and the player with the special talent asked first, "Whoever levels up with their pet can buy it in advance."

Then, her talent instantly enveloped everyone. Xu Jiawei frowned, then used her immunity to control to block her talent. It seemed that this effect was not unchangeable.

Some players might lie to get more potions, but the official team was prepared and required players to give their pets the potions on the spot.

However, a few people still tried to be clever and used their abilities to block out this effect. Even though the official team allowed them to drink it on the spot, they forced their pets to drink the pet breakthrough potion even though they hadn't reached the maximum level.

However, the pet was completely unable to withstand this violent energy and exploded to death. The person who originally wanted to play a clever trick has now lost everything. Not only did they not gain any advantage, but they also killed their own pet. It's too late for regrets now.

After a few people tried to be clever, the rest of the people dared not lie and honestly reported that most of their pets had only broken through level 20.

They were filled with regret. If they had known that pets could accumulate experience, they would never have been lazy. If someone is lazy, then someone else is a master of laziness. There was a legendary figure who, although his level was low and his strength was weak, and his pet was stuck at level 20, reached level 50 directly after drinking a few potions. Everyone around him was extremely envious.

Originally, everyone else was mocking him for always having that weak pet, which slowed down his leveling up.

He let the pet finish off everything. He would beat the mutated creature half to death, then let the pet kill it, while he cheered and shouted "Great job!" He was acting like a doting dad, which drew a lot of ridicule.

But today, everything changed. That level 20 pet suddenly jumped to level 50, its stats now far exceeding its owner's, making it a huge asset to the player. Those who had mocked it now looked like clowns, filled with envy.

Moreover, that pet reached the maximum level and remained so close to its owner. Now, several pets have broken ties with their owners after leveling up.

This is because the pet's intimacy level with its owner is too low. Another possibility is that the owner mistreats or abuses the pet, which leads to a very low intimacy level. Once the pet increases its strength, the first thing it does is to turn against its owner.

These incidents of violence served as a wake-up call for them, reminding them to treat their pets as equals, not as slaves to be exploited. Although dozens of people were injured in retaliation, many more gained strength, and even acquired many more level 50 pets with an average attribute of 900, several times that of their owners.

Currently, the average player's attributes are only around 200, with some, like Si Yunming, reaching 1500, and others as low as 100. The top 100 players on the leaderboard only have attributes of 500-800, which shows a huge gap between rich and poor.

When Xu Jiawei heard that Si Yunming's attributes had reached 1500, she was shocked. Good heavens, if it weren't for the boost from the underwater world, his attributes would be higher than hers. In fact, Si Yunming's strength and health have now surpassed hers.

She truly deserves her combat talent; the attribute points she gains with each breakthrough are far beyond what she can match. And this is even with her attributes improving every day; Si Yunming has already surpassed her.

With their pets now stronger, players are brimming with confidence.

After all the pets were upgraded, the official team still had a lot of potions left. They sold the original potions at a discount to benefit the players who were working so hard.

But now that the pet has reached the current highest level, the official plan is to sell the remaining potions at double the price. Even if the price is doubled, many people will still choose to buy them. They don't know how long they will have to wait to go to the land to obtain the potions.

They must level up their pets as quickly as possible, as this is the fastest way to increase their strength, even if the price doubles, they have to buy them.

When they ran out of money, they traded goods for money, as long as they collected enough gold coins. In no time, the place turned into a huge market.

Xu Jiawei was interested in some of the items being sold, so she simply chose to buy them with gold coins. After all, she had money, while the other players were short of it, and the transactions went very smoothly.

After seeing the uses of the gold coins, these players all regretted it, wishing they hadn't exchanged them.

After these events, players gradually accepted using the world's currency to buy things, and the currency system gradually got on the right track.

Two hours passed, and the Mushroom God, hidden in the clouds, grew tired of waiting. The players below finally finished, and the Mushroom God pretended to have just arrived, falling from the clouds. In reality, he had only arrived 10 minutes ago, but he had managed to hide in the clouds for almost two hours.

If Xu Jiawei knew this, she would definitely say he's being arrogant.

"I've arrived. Keep up, or I won't care if you can't," the Mushroom God said with a look of disdain.

The officials breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Mushroom God arrived late, and they were also fortunate that they acted quickly. Otherwise, it would have been awkward if they hadn't finished by the time Mushroom God arrived.

Little did they know that even if they delayed for three hours, the Mushroom God would arrive in three hours; if they finished in one hour, the Mushroom God would arrive in one hour. It was only because it was afraid of making them uncomfortable that it had been hiding in the clouds.

"Everyone, listen up! Move out immediately!"

"yes!"

The group hurriedly packed their luggage and followed the Mushroom God. The Mushroom God led the way, smashing the building with a single punch and then creating a unique, illusory entrance with another punch.

Is this the entrance they could only find with their eyes closed? Mushroom God punched it open, and now they can walk in without closing their eyes. It feels so good to have a powerful backer.

Xu Jiawei sighed. She and Si Yunming exchanged a glance, and both of them were shocked. It was that simple? What did all the suffering they had endured before amount to?
