Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Just as they were in a panic, Robert and Yanling returned, both seriously injured and unconscious.

The officials panicked even more. Grace, Mo Feng, and Mushroom God had not returned yet. They had heard in the live stream that the three of them had no chance to teleport back. Could they be dead?

"Don't panic, suppress the news, and wait for the others to return. They'll be fine." The official leader calmly issued the order, and the officials busied themselves in an orderly manner.

Another half hour passed, and by the time the live stream ended, the others still hadn't returned. The organizers didn't know whether this was a good or bad thing.

But soon, the system released another message: the election was over.

Ten minutes after the announcement, the unharmed Mo Feng, Grace, the extremely weak Mushroom God, and Si Yunming, covered in blood and wielding a giant sword, were teleported back to the official base.

Commander Zhang glanced at the group, then asked in surprise, "Why are there only a few of you? Where's Mushroom? Could it be?!"

Commander Zhang seemed to have thought of something, and his emotions became excited. Si Yunming and the others exchanged glances and smiled.

Si Yunming smiled and said, "She succeeded."

In the instant Master Bu left, Si Yunming only had time to set up a wisp of black energy, through which he witnessed Master Bu's death.

But there's one more thing: shouldn't she come back after obtaining the Breath of the World?

Has it still not been transmitted back? Has the system forgotten?

[Ding! This player is breaking through level 100 at the starting point; it's not that the system is preventing teleportation.]

System 001 immediately explained.

Its electronic voice couldn't hide its excitement. It had won this time. The players it led had successfully obtained the Breath of the World, and had long ago received the blessings of the gods. Now all that was left was for it to break through.

[Ding! Server-wide announcement: All players are urged to resist the Dark God's attack and wait for players to reach level 100 to defeat the Dark God.]

[Bumblebee: Huh? The one who obtained the Breath of the World is our server? Is the system what I thought?]

[System: Yes, it's an honor.]

[Phoenix: Oh my god, look! Mushroom Boss has disappeared from the rankings! Could it be that Mushroom Boss was the one who obtained the Breath of the World?]

[Plastic bag: It's obvious that besides the Mushroom King, who else could be so strong as to snatch the Breath of the World from such a group of monsters?]

[Female Assassin: Wow, the guild leader is awesome! Let me send a red envelope to celebrate. [Red Envelope]]

[Perfect! Thank you so much, I won 100 gold coins!]

[Initially: I had 30.]

[Fengguang: I only have 1, hahaha.]

[Mighty Gorilla: Me too. [Red Envelope]]

[Nonsense: Thank you all, everyone.]

At this moment, Xu Jiawei had lost consciousness and was only mechanically absorbing energy; everything else was irrelevant to her.

Although the officials were excited, they immediately organized a team to clean up the dark pollution.

Si Yunming then brought the unconscious people back to Mushroom City, excluding Yan Ling, since he was an official. After bringing them all back, Si Yunming organized the troops and began training them.

He needs to protect Mushroom City until Xu Jiawei returns.

Upon hearing the news of Xu Jiawei's departure, the God of Darkness also made some moves, beginning to manipulate the black-robed figures to continuously harass the city.

The people were greatly disturbed, and the magic in the environment was becoming increasingly thin. In some areas where vegetation was lush, large areas of vegetation began to die.

Meanwhile, the players' recovery speed is getting slower and slower. As this trend continues, the players will eventually be unable to recover their magic power and will have to rely on swords to fight.

Warriors, who do not require magic, became the main force in the fight against the Dark God. However, warriors still need magic to strengthen their bodies, so the entire magical world fell into a state of magic shortage.

Those with money can replenish their energy with energy stones, but for those without resources, it's practically suicide.

Bai Yu immediately joined forces with Grace to study how to seize energy from the Dark God.

After two months of research, they finally developed a special tool that could convert dark energy into attribute-free energy.

However, it would be difficult for the two of them to mass-produce it, so Mushroom City cooperated with the government and bases in other countries to begin large-scale production of this prop.

We tried to equip everyone with one, and now almost everyone carries this round device so they can move around outside.

The first to be equipped with this gear were mages, because they needed magic more than warriors. Once production capacity caught up, warriors would be equipped with it.

Spring comes and autumn goes, and a year has quietly passed.

The last time, the Dark God was probably seriously injured. It took him a whole year to recover before he could launch another attack on the players and the world.

Countless black-robed figures, like unkillable cockroaches, relentlessly attacked the city, turning many cities into ruins. More and more people came to Mushroom City, and its area increased nearly tenfold compared to before.

The battleground has expanded dozens of times. Now, everyone's faces are devoid of naivety and fear, replaced only by numbness, vigilance, and a sliver of hope for the future.

They still have hope. They still have Mushroom Boss. As long as Mushroom Boss is here, they will definitely be saved. Even if they die, Mushroom Boss will avenge them when he returns.

By sheer willpower, the player has managed to hold on until now.

But now the players can't hold on any longer, because the energy in the air is getting less and less. Even the dark energy has been completely devoured by the Dark God, and there is no energy of other attributes left at all. The entire planet has become a wasteland.

The original forests turned into deserts, the rivers dried up and became barren land. Not to mention farmland, even grass stopped growing. The whole world was plunged into famine, and people could only survive on surplus food.

The system also opened an exchange channel, allowing users to buy food and water from other planets and exchange them for gold coins from this world.

People in this world barely survived, but people still starved to death every day.

......

Mushroom City, having just weathered another fierce battle, was utterly exhausted. The leader, however, wore a stern expression and issued the order: "Prepare! The second wave of attacks is expected to arrive in three minutes!"

If Xu Jiawei came here, she probably wouldn't recognize that the leader is now Li Ming, who is now in charge on his own.

He still sports his signature red hair and is known as the Red-Haired God General. Whenever people see his distinctive red hair on the battlefield, they know that there is hope.

Li Ming's face had become more mature, his expression more resolute, and his eyes very sharp. A scar running from his brow bone to his cheek made him look even more ruthless.

This scar was left half a year ago when he almost died at the feet of the Dark God. Fortunately, luck intervened and he dodged the blow that could have shattered his head, allowing him to survive until now.

"I've come to deliver your equipment." A female voice rang out; it was Bai Yu, dressed in armor.

"Sister Baiyu, you're here. How are things on your end?" Li Ming smiled, a rare sight indeed.

"What else can we do? Same as always, hurry up and put it away, I need to get back and guard it."

Bai Yu waved her hand. Her body had now completely turned into a machine. The battle a month ago had broken her body in two. If Zhang Yunting hadn't risked his life to save her, she would be dead now.

As a result, Zhang Yunting also broke an arm and it took him a month to recover.
