Chapter 191: Survival Game System (20)

~8 min read 1,593 words

Having just planted all 100 cabbage seeds into the soil, Xie Yang received a team invitation from Fu Zhangzheng:

"We both have a Dungeon Secret Key, why not enter the dungeon together? That way we can look out for each other."

Xie Yang thought about it; she had actually been to the Nameless Island before, and other than minerals and seafood, it didn't seem to have any dangers...

No! That was back during the Novice Protection Period, but now it is not!

So, is it possible that the dungeon also holds dangers?

But Xie Yang didn't quite dare to agree with Fu Zhangzheng's Luck Value.

The other party seemed to have guessed the snarky thought in her mind and let out a low, deep chuckle:

"Don't worry, I will upgrade the Shelter before we go, and add all the rewarded Attribute Points to Luck Value. At the very least, it will be on par with the player average, so I shouldn't be that unlucky anymore."

"……Then upgrade it first before talking." Xie Yang flipped through her own backpack inventory, "I have Wood and Iron Nail in stock, I can lend them to you first."

Xie Yang's words were equivalent to indirectly agreeing to team up with him to raid the dungeon.

Fu Zhangzheng ended the private chat and went to prepare for the upgrade.

Xie Yang pondered that at his speed, he might be able to upgrade within these two days.

Thus, for these two days, besides chopping Wood, she spent her time having the Tool Bench design and manufacture various Mining Tools, mostly Refined Iron Pickaxe, followed by Engineering Shovel.

Additionally, she spent a few Iron Ore to forge four large iron buckets with handles, convenient for holding seafood.

Sub-system: 【The Host is 666 as always!】

Main System: 【How much can you pick up by gathering seafood? Just take a fishing net into the sea and drag it, Host!】

Survival Game System: 【……】

【Dungeon refreshed!】

【Congratulations to players GY, GY09854, and GY08601 for logging into the Fengqing Island dungeon for the first time, rewarding Player Blind Box Treasure Chest *1】

On the World Channel bulletin board, a small trumpet broadcasted this three times.

Having already logged into the dungeon, Xie Yang and Fu Zhangzheng naturally heard it too, and both of them suddenly had a Blind Box Treasure Chest in their hands.

Come to think of it, this was the first time the two had met face-to-face.

But perhaps because they had contacted each other many times through the private chat window, they could recognize each other just by hearing their voices. Aside from being stunned by each other's looks, there wasn't much of a sense of strangeness.

Fu Zhangzheng handed the Treasure Chest to Xie Yang: "You open it."

"Let's open it when we get back."

Xie Yang had no heart to open the Treasure Chest at this moment.

She discovered something was wrong.

This was not the Nameless Island she had visited last time!

This island was clearly larger than the Nameless Island, and the scenery was better too—

In the distance was the azure blue where the sea and sky met;

Nearby, white waves washed over the coastline in wave after wave;

Golden beaches, Coconut Tree swaying in the wind, and from time to time, ripe coconuts fell from the trees.

"The temperature here is a bit high."

Fu Zhangzheng looked up at the clear blue sky.

Having suddenly arrived at a tropical island of twenty or thirty degrees from the Extreme Cold of minus ten-plus degrees, one felt dazed.

"Find a place to change clothes first."

Xie Yang suggested.

It just so happened that there was a forest with a concentration of Coconut Tree by the beach, so the two went in separately to change clothes.

Xie Yang changed into a white T-shirt and jeans, while Fu Zhangzheng wore the same military uniform he had before entering the game, which had of course been washed.

After changing clothes and drinking a glass of water, they were just about to look for minerals.

Unfortunately, this was not the Nameless Island; the Mineral Distribution Map of Nameless Island in Xie Yang's hand was temporarily useless, so she could only take a shot in the dark—relying on luck!

"Ahhh—help, help—"

"Oh God! Someone save me—I don't want to die—"

Hearing cries for help from afar and a faint tremor that felt like the earth was shaking, Xie Yang and Fu Zhangzheng looked at each other and vigilantly took out their Wolf Tooth Dagger for self-defense.

However, the scene they saw afterward left them both laughing and crying.

A large, dark mass of... wild boars and island rabbits were fiercely chasing a blond-haired, blue-eyed young man, chasing him all the way from the mountainside to the beach.

That person must be player GY08601 who logged onto the island at the same time as them.

"Help! Save me!"

The other party scrambled down from the mountain.

But the "island natives" chasing him behind did not give up, and instead bit even tighter.

Seeing that they were about to collide with them, Fu Zhangzheng told Xie Yang to step back; he gripped his Wolf Tooth Dagger and flashed forward to meet them, raising his hand in a swipe, and the sharp tip of the dagger sliced through the throats of the wild boars or island rabbits.

But there were also those he couldn't attend to that rushed toward Xie Yang, all of which were kicked unconscious by Xie Yang one after another.

GY08601 escaped death, leaning against a tree trunk and clutching his chest, panting heavily; seeing this scene, his jaw almost dropped.

"God!"

"Is this the legendary Dragon Country kung fu? Cool!"

"……"

Xie Yang and Fu Zhangzheng joined forces to take care of over forty island rabbits and a dozen wild boars.

In total, they harvested over a hundred portions of Pork and pig bones, four or five hundred portions of rabbit meat, as well as pig skin, rabbit fur, and Tusk Dagger.

There was also a portion that was smart enough to turn around and run away when they saw things weren't going well.

Xie Yang and the other didn't chase after them.

The meat on the ground was picked up by Xie Yang with one click; the specifics would be divided after returning.

This was agreed upon before entering the dungeon.

A total of only four Tusk Daggers dropped, exactly two for each person.

Fu Zhangzheng tucked his into his military boots, while Xie Yang put hers into the Storage Space.

GY08601 watched, swallowing his saliva in envy.

"Hey! You two!" He leaned in close to them to strike up a conversation, "Are you also new to the dungeon today?"

Fu Zhangzheng nodded slightly, then turned to ask Xie Yang: "Shall we go up the mountain to take a look?"

He wanted to go explore the wild boar's lair.

Xie Yang also thought of the Blind Box Treasure Chest he had picked up in the Wolf den, so naturally, she wanted to go see it.

The two waved at the foreign player: "Sorry, we can only stay in the dungeon for 24 hours at most, we want to seize the time to look around, please feel free to do as you please!"

That person had a mind to follow them, but unfortunately, the pace of Xie Yang and the other was simply too fast.

He followed for a stretch of road before his line of sight was blocked by dense thickets; the two receding figures flickered in the woods and then seemed to vanish, disappearing without a trace.

Afraid of following in the wrong direction if he continued up the mountain, and also worried about where another group of crazy wild boars or island rabbits might pop out, he had no choice but to abandon the idea of following them to mooch off their gains, and returned dejectedly to the beach where the sea breeze blew gently.

On that side, Xie Yang and Fu Zhangzheng followed the scent of the wild boars and the hoofprints left behind all the way, successfully sneaking to the wild boar's lair.

At this moment, the lair was quiet; presumably, the commotion from just a moment ago had drawn the wild boars out in full force, and even if any had escaped death, they were still lingering at the foot of the mountain.

Xie Yang took out a handful of Strange-smelling Fodder that beasts would avoid at all costs and lit it at the entrance of the cave to prevent the wild boars from returning halfway.

"Did you buy this from the Game Mall?" Fu Zhangzheng asked.

Main System: 【Don't ask! If you ask, it's because my Host loves to waste reward points on these little trinkets.】

However, this fodder was worthless in other Planting planes, and it could earn quite a bit of interest from it, so it was very proactive in helping the Host make the purchase.

Xie Yang didn't say much, and Fu Zhangzheng didn't ask further; after all, everyone has their own secrets.

After the fodder started burning, the rustling noises around the cave ceased.

The two entered the cave to explore with peace of mind.

Fu Zhangzheng had explored the Wolf den in depth and had more experience with this.

He led Xie Yang straight to the deepest part of the cave, gripped the Engineering Shovel sponsored by Xie Yang, and with one shovel, broke through the cave wall, revealing a bright, shining gold.

"Gold Ore! Let's start digging!"

"..."
