Survival for all, my island is the last pure land on earth.

In the storage box, Jin Xiaoman found the onesie and raincoat she had bought during the rainy season to dig lotus roots.

As she dressed, she instructed the squirrel, "Don't go looking for treasure chests in the forest for the next few days. Just stay in the safe house."

Squirrel: "I'm not afraid of getting wet in the rain, nor am I afraid of being surrounded by water. Let me go."

"No, the rain is too heavy. Ah Ye and I will go out."

As if to confirm Jin Xiaoman's words, the raindrops outside became even more concentrated, pounding on the leaves and the ground with muffled thuds.

The squirrel wriggled and said, "Manman, I don't want to stay with Dangdang."

Who is Dangdang?

Jin Xiaoman went through it in her mind and remembered that Chi Mian seemed to have said that his name was Dang Dang.

"Why? Did it bully you?"

The squirrel shook its head: "No, it only says I'm fat, but it has never bullied me."

Jin Xiaoman glanced at Chi Mian, who looked a little guilty and gestured a circle with her vines: "Don't you think it's gotten a lot fatter lately?"

Jin Xiaoman: "That's because Master Rat used to be too thin."

Akamaki was momentarily speechless: "Then I won't say it again."

Although it does not agree with Jin Xiaoman's statement.

Having received reassurance, Jin Xiaoman carried the squirrel into the bedroom: "Squirrel, is it because Chi Mian said you're fat that you don't like it?"

The squirrel thought for a moment and honestly replied, "I don't like it because you, Manman, don't like it."

Jin Xiaoman recalled that in the game, the squirrel's disdain for Chimian had reached the point where Chimian was wrapped around her left hand, and it was about to squat down on her right shoulder.

I initially thought it was a conflict between the two little ones, but it turned out to be because of her.

Jin Xiaoman squatted down and looked directly into the squirrel's eyes: "Chimian's personality means I can't pamper it like I pamper you, because it will take advantage of me."

"But that doesn't mean I don't like it, Rat Lord. Red Crown is very good and capable. It's also part of this family and our partner. You should treat it the same way you treat A-Ye."

The squirrel looked at Jin Xiaoman with a mixture of understanding and confusion.

"Also, you can't lose your own judgment because of me. My likes and dislikes shouldn't be the standard for your likes or dislikes."

The squirrel stood on the bed, somewhat bewildered: "What did I do wrong, Manman?"

"No, nothing was wrong. It just needs a small change. Don't be prejudiced against Akabane."

Jin Xiaoman gently patted the squirrel's head: "These next few days, stay in the safe house and think carefully about what I said. We'll go back into the forest after the flood is over, okay?"

The squirrel nodded: "I understand, but it's just that my treasure chest income has decreased significantly these past few days. Is that alright?"

Jin Xiaoman: "It's okay."

After closing the bedroom door, Jin Xiaoman beckoned to Chi Mian: "Come here."

Chi Mian wrapped his arm around Jin Xiaoman's wrist: "Mandarin, what were you saying in the room? Were you cursing me?"

Jin Xiaoman: "Yeah, I was saying you're fat too."

Chi Mian bristled: "How is that possible? I'm so slim, I'm as thin as a vine!"

"Don't you like it when people say you're fat?"

"dislike."

"Then why did you say that Lord Rat is fat?"

"It's already fat. Although it looks okay, it's very heavy, don't you think? Sometimes I can't even move it."

"I didn't notice. It's very easy for me to hold it. And why are you dragging it?"

Akabane: "..."

"I play with it."

Jin Xiaoman didn't say anything, put on her raincoat hood, and stepped into the rain.

She'd given them all the necessary reprimands, and now she'd let the two little ones handle the rest themselves; she had more important things to do.

During the dry season, Sisyphus said to let it rest for a while.

Jin Xiaoman pondered that now that the dry season was over, it should have rested well by now.

You must have had a good rest.

Jin Xiaoman hunted two wild boars, roasted them in a high place, and then headed towards the pond.

When Sisyphus emerged from the water, he saw Jin Xiaoman squatting on a tree, cupping her hands around her mouth like a megaphone and calling out, "Senior, I've brought you something good!"

Its gaze swept over Jin Xiaoman, and it nodded in satisfaction: "Your Shadowless Step has improved very quickly, very good."

Jin Xiaoman felt a little embarrassed by these compliments. Her current level of proficiency in the Shadowless Step was largely thanks to the pursuit of those NPCs in the dungeon game.

She jumped into the water, swam to within five meters of Sisyphus, and held something above her head: "Senior, I encountered an earth spirit in the dungeon game and obtained a treasure from it."

Sisyphus looked up.

[Holy Water: SS-grade item, capable of healing all injuries, removing all negative statuses such as poisoning, curses, and paralysis. It has a special healing effect on NPCs who are not protected by the world's rules. Even powerful beings like gem merchants can instantly restore 50% of their health after drinking it.]

Usage restrictions: The entire vial must be used at once; it cannot be split.

Jin Xiaoman's healing potion could only treat players and the plants and animals that had contracts with them, so even though she noticed Sisyphus's injury immediately, she was helpless.

She had approached Lilith, who suggested that if she encountered an earth elf in an upcoming dungeon game, and the earth elf happened to have a golden gourd tied to its waist with a silver chain, then she could steal the golden gourd and make a deal with the earth elf.

It must be said that the golden gourd was indeed a treasure. It was a portable storage space with a large capacity, enough for four or five of her backpacks.

If it weren't for exchanging holy water, Jin Xiaoman would never have returned the golden gourd when leaving the game.

When Sisyphus saw the holy water, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. His wounds could indeed heal faster if they had the holy water.

Facing Jin Xiaoman's devout, bright eyes, it did not refuse and accepted the roasted pig and holy water.

After a long while, it spoke, its voice hoarse but sounding much more energetic: "Little panda, I've marked a little guy. Help me kill it, and the treasure chest it drops is yours."

Jin Xiaoman looked down at her watch and, sure enough, saw a rapidly moving red dot in front of her to the right.

She raised her hand to say goodbye to Sisyphus and then submerged into the water.

The red dot moved very fast, and Jin Xiaoman judged that its agility was not much different from her own, so she surfaced and called for Maoqiu.

She had the fluffy ball teleport her to a location near the red dot, and first she needed to determine what the red dot was.

After being teleported twice, Jin Xiaoman checked her watch and confirmed that she was only thirty meters away from the red dot.

She gestured for the fluffy ball to stay in the tree, then jumped into the water and swam forward.

She circled around a huge rock, and a dark shadow appeared before her eyes...
