Chapter 180: Disaster Survival System (9)

Aside from the expansion of space and the addition of furniture, the most useful point of the upgraded Wooden House is—

The kitchen can now be used to light a fire and cook!

However, there is currently only fire, no water.

Drinking water needs to be bought from the Game Mall or obtained by continuing to use melted snow.

Cooking utensils and tableware like pots, bowls, ladles, and basins also need to be purchased with Gold Coins.

These are not problems for Xie Yang.

She took out the pots, bowls, ladles, and basins from her Storage Space.

It's just that without rice or flour to put in the pot, she can't cook a meal, but she can boil water; at least there is hot water to drink.

She still has a few blocks of instant noodles in her hand; with hot water, she can make instant noodles to eat.

The bathroom is also much larger than before; not only is it separated into wet and dry areas, but it also has a large bathtub where one can lie down and soak.

Xie Yang turned on the faucet, and what came out was actually a stream of warm water with a faint smell of sulfur.

This is... hot spring water?

Xie Yang was truly pleasantly surprised this time!

She didn't expect that after upgrading to the large Wooden House, not only would there be hot water for bathing, but what came out was directly hot spring water!

Since it was just getting dark, she simply closed the doors and windows tightly, drew the curtains, and went into the bathroom to have a comfortable hot spring bath.

While soaking, she used a bucket to catch a bucket of clean hot spring water and sent it to No. 333.

【Auntie is here, use hot water to wash up!】

Feng Xuemei was happy and moved upon receiving the hot water.

【Thank you! Thank you, Big Boss!】

【You're welcome! But this water can only be used for washing; it cannot be drunk. I am still boiling the drinking water; I will share a cup with you once it's boiled.】

【Thank you, thank you!】

Feng Hongmei expressed her gratitude again, while wiping the corners of her moist eyes.

All the good luck today seems to be related to Big Boss Wanyi.

Although she doesn't know how many days she can survive in this pit-of-a-game, as long as she is alive and has the chance to get good items, she will definitely share them with Big Boss Wanyi!

Xie Yang subsequently sent a bucket of hot spring water and a cup of hot boiled water to Chang Lebao and Most Lovely Person 9854 as well.

Seeing that there were only four friends in her friend list in total, and she had sent to three of them, she might as well give a cup to that lively player who called himself "Little Brother."

"Ahhh! Hot water, my god! Big Boss is worthy of being a Big Boss! Woohoo! Does this count as me successfully hugging a thigh?"

Ming Hao's voice message was as lively and boisterous as ever.

Fu Zhangzheng also sent a long voice message this time, his voice deep, powerful, and solemn: "Thank you! With a task on my shoulders, I cannot guarantee that I can go through fire and water for you, but as long as you come to me, and as long as it is within my capabilities, I will definitely help you!"

Xie Yang: 【... It's not that serious.】

Chang Lebao was so excited upon receiving the hot water that she cheered and screamed:

"Ahhh! Big Boss! Big Boss, you are simply my god! Please accept my kowtow!"

"Big Boss, will you take in a little sister? Although I look average, I am really good at fighting! I grew up in my grandfather's boxing gym, and I know every kind of boxing... a little bit. Hehe! I will protect Big Boss in the future!"

Xie Yang chuckled and sent a voice message back: "Sure! If there is a chance to meet, let's spar."

She had once trained for several years in the Tycoon Plane with a bodyguard captain who was a retired world martial arts champion; setting aside the buffs brought by the Physical Fitness Potion, her skills were not weak now.

"Okay, okay! Looking forward to meeting Big Boss in person! It's just that I don't know when we can meet. We won't be left to survive on our own islands for this whole year, right?"

Chang Lebao wailed:

"Why did I ever think that living alone was the most comfortable? It's only been one day, and I'm already a bit unable to stand it! I miss my mom and dad, I miss my grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, and little cousin..."

Xie Yang listened quietly as she poured her heart out with a nasal tone and sobbing, then they wished each other goodnight and rested.

After her bath, Xie Yang washed her underwear and thermal layers.

In the storage Warehouse, there was a drying rack that the original owner used to keep on the balcony; she took it out, set it up in front of the fireplace, and hung the wrung-out clothes on it. They would definitely be dry by tomorrow morning.

Before going to sleep, she took stock of the day's gains, did a simple review, and then made a rough plan for the next two days.

In the last two days of the Novice Protection Period, she had to hoard as many supplies as possible.

Tomorrow: Head to the Nameless Island dungeon to explore for mineral resources.

It would be best if there were iron ore; if not, it didn't matter. Other minerals could be mined and sold to the game system in exchange for Gold Coins, and then those Gold Coins could be used to buy upgrade materials; it was the same.

The day after tomorrow: Continue chopping trees, try to save up as much ordinary Wood as possible for upgrades and Rare Wood for future shipbuilding, while keeping an eye out for Volcanic Rock and Red Clay.

After that, she crawled into her quilt and went to sleep.

On the second day of the Novice Protection Period, Xie Yang got up relatively early.

After washing up, she drank a cup of warm boiled water, took a Nutrient Solution, and, feeling refreshed, took out the Dungeon Secret Key.

【This is a magical key that leads to the Nameless Island! After activation, you can log into the Nameless Island for 24 hours. Once the time is up, you will be instantly teleported back to your original location. Do you want to activate it now?】

"Yes!"

The next second, Xie Yang's vision went black, and she subconsciously closed her eyes.

When she opened them again, she found that she was no longer in the Wooden House, but on an island full of bare rocky mountains.

【Congratulations to player GY for being the first to log into the Nameless Island dungeon, rewarding Player Blind Box Treasure Chest*1!】

The players on the World Channel were instantly stirred up when they saw this message broadcast by the little trumpet:

【It's her again! I've actually gotten used to this ID!】

【Isn't that so? If someone else popped up, I'd find it strange.】

【What is Big Boss Wanyi's background? She's too amazing! I haven't even figured out the cardinal directions on my own island, and the Big Boss is already clearing dungeons.】

【When will the Big Boss open a class for us to teach us how to clear levels! I am willing to take out my last two Gold Coins to listen to the Big Boss's lecture!】

【I am willing to pay 10 Gold Coins!】

【The person above is wealthy!】

【……】

The Dragon Country players in the Regional Channel were also discussing:

【I really want to proudly post on the World Channel and tell them this is a big shot from our Dragon Country!】

【Absolutely not! Developing stealthily is the only way to be safe!】

【Indeed! When the road ahead is unclear, keeping a low profile is the way to go!】

【Right! Who knows if players from those other countries have bad intentions? After all, this game is different from ordinary games; if you die, you really die, there is no chance to reload and start over. We cannot underestimate those foreigners.】

【That's right! Although only 33 people from our country entered, big shot Wanyi is very powerful. At this rate, she should be able to survive the Four Seasons Natural Disasters.】

【Agreed! If the big shot is willing to reveal it, that is her business. We cannot disclose her situation at will.】

【Her? Big shot Wanyi is a woman?】

【Holy crap!!!】

Chang Lebao, who had inadvertently revealed Xie Yang's gender, immediately regretted it and pounded her own head; she had originally intended to remind the Dragon Country players, but in the end, she had exposed the big shot's information.

She hurriedly sent a private message to Xie Yang: "Big shot, I'm sorry! Sob! I tried to do a good deed but ended up doing something bad!"

She explained the whole incident in detail, then pressed her palms together and prayed that big shot Wanyi would forgive her.

Why was she so stupid!

Did her brain not follow her into the game? Or did it run away from home?
