Post-apocalyptic game: I survive at sea by scavenging for trash.

Lin Wanyi was always smart, and upon hearing this, she knew that her sister had encountered the same situation as her.

The two immediately discussed what had happened that day.

Lin Wanyi went to a butterfly island today. The butterfly monsters on the island are characterized by poison attacks. Lin Wanyi is not good at attacking these small flying monsters, so she tried to avoid battle as much as possible.

Lin Wanyi had a very fruitful day. Around 5 o'clock, she planned to find another resource point before retreating, and it was at this time that she encountered the level 15 butterfly boss.

Although Lin Wanyi's attributes weren't as high as Lin Zhaoyin's, they weren't bad overall. Moreover, even though both were level 15 monsters, this butterfly's attributes were far inferior to the Ice Crack Bird's.

So although it took some effort, we finally managed to kill the Butterfly Monster.

Just after the system finished settling the results, a message suddenly appeared that the island's magnetic field was abnormal, and the next moment Lin Wanyi fainted.

According to Lin Wanyi's recollection of the time, she should have been unconscious for about two hours.

Apart from not knowing the duration of their coma, the other information was almost identical to that of their sister.

There's no direct information about whether the butterfly is the boss; it's just Lin Wanyi's guess. After all, among all the monsters on the island, only this one is higher level than the others, which is quite telling.

The two sisters happened to do the same thing, and Lin Zhaoyin suddenly had a bold idea: if this situation happened repeatedly, what kind of impact would it have on the game?

However, conducting experiments is not an easy task. Not only are there few opportunities to encounter level 15 monsters, but not all players have the ability to challenge level 15 monsters.

No problem, if you're having trouble, just ask the big shots!

The next second, Qin Feng's private chat window lit up.

Uncle Qin, there's something I'd like to discuss with you!

Qin Feng had always known that Lin Zhaoyin was a very opinionated girl, but her overly enthusiastic attitude this time made him quite nervous.

Lin Zhaoyin shared her thoughts: while level 15 un-fully-developed bosses are difficult to defeat, some strong players can still give it a try. Furthermore, some players have already merged their islands, increasing the success rate of two-player battles.

As for how to encourage other expert players to participate in this operation, Lin Zhaoyin plans to go all out and share her experience, with the pet egg being the biggest selling point.

It wasn't that Lin Zhaoyin didn't want to hide the fact that she had a pet, but based on her experience playing games, there would definitely be a pet ranking list, and she wouldn't be able to hide it even if she wanted to.

Although Lin Zhaoyin still didn't know exactly what kind of pet it was, it should be a support pet, not just a companion pet, right?

Additionally, defeating a monster more than 5 levels higher will grant you a silver treasure chest, and opportunities to obtain high-level treasure chests are now rare.

The only problem is how to encounter a level 15 near-boss monster.

Qin Feng and Lin Wanyi encountered level 1 islands about the same number of times. Lin Wanyi waited until today because she kept avoiding monsters, but Qin Feng was on a killing spree, so why didn't he encounter any?

Lin Zhaoyin felt that these potential boss monsters would most likely be selective in their targets. Qin Feng started farming monsters and resources as soon as he arrived on the island, and before the bosses fully developed, it was definitely best to avoid players like him.

Therefore, Lin Zhaoyin's advice to Qin Feng was: "Uncle Qin, please let those weaker monsters go next time!"

After discussing the plan, Lin Zhaoyin began her presentation in the chat channel.

[Dear players, I landed on a level 2 island today and encountered an opportunity I'd like to share.]

I encountered a level 15 monster on the island, which seemed to be a boss. It took me a lot of effort to defeat it. Among its loot was a pet egg. I suspect that a pet system will be released soon.

[Additionally, because the monsters were high-level, I also obtained an extra silver treasure chest by defeating them. The only downside is that once the boss is defeated, the player is immediately sent back to their island.]

Although Lin Zhaoyin doesn't speak much in the chat channel, her second-highest combat power in the entire server still gives her a certain degree of credibility.

As soon as he finished speaking, many players immediately chimed in.

[Wow, that's amazing! He can actually solo a level 15 monster? It must be incredibly difficult!]

[Only the top players would have this kind of opportunity; we wouldn't dare to fight the boss.]

But there are pet eggs! Once they hatch, they'll be another fighting force, which is better than fighting monsters alone.

[We ordinary players can't even imagine this; it's practically feeding the boss!]

Believe it or not, I've actually encountered that. I was gathering resources when a high-level monster suddenly rushed out. I turned and ran, and thankfully I didn't die there.

Lin Zhaoyin noticed this message, which further confirmed her guess: this monster must be a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong.

Soon, someone mentioned Qin Feng, wanting to know if Qin Feng had ever encountered a boss.

I usually go to the island to level up. I'm level 12 now, so even the boss will probably hide if it sees me, right?

This statement is both reassuring and enviable; this is the confidence of the number one commander of the entire server, China!

These monsters lurking in the shadows—wouldn't their righteous commander have to avoid them?

[Although I haven't encountered this myself, another player just told me about it; he also ran into the same situation as Xiaolin. However, he went to a level 1 island, and the monster there wasn't as difficult as the one Xiaolin encountered.]

Lin Zhaoyin told Qin Feng about her sister's situation, but she didn't want her sister to come forward, so she could only tell the story through Qin Feng.

Qin Feng also revealed the stats of the level 15 monster that Lin Wanyi encountered in the chat channel. The stats were indeed very high, but it wasn't impossible for players with high combat power rankings to win.

Lin Zhaoyin continued, striking while the iron was hot.

Currently, this is the only chance to obtain a pet egg, and I'm mentioning it so that more players won't miss this opportunity. Besides, defeating these bosses now is better than letting them grow stronger later.

The monsters we encounter on the player island are mostly around the same level as the players, while these bosses level up significantly faster than us players. Now is the best opportunity to defeat them.

Lin Zhaoyin's reasoning is indeed very sound: eliminating the enemy before they grow stronger will greatly increase the players' chances of survival in the end.

It's not just ordinary players who think this way; high-level players also prefer to nip their enemies in the bud. There's no need to wait until you're outmatched to fight for a reward you can get earlier.
