Survival for all, my island is the last pure land on earth.
Chapter 9 Obtain Sweet Potatoes
[Name: An Ordinary Squirrel]
Strength: 7
Agility: 21
Defense Value: 10
[Danger Level: One Star]
Having confirmed that the squirrel posed little threat, Jin Xiaoman wanted to retrieve her raspberries.
Upon seeing this, the squirrel stuffed it into its mouth and ate it.
I go!
Jin Xiaoman was shocked. The world has really changed; even squirrels are eating raspberries now.
The squirrel reached out, savoring the taste; its meaning was clear: another one.
Jin Xiaoman sneered: "Are you kidding me? You eat my food, take my things, and now you want to pack up my leftovers? You're pretty greedy, friend."
Seeing that Jin Xiaoman wouldn't give it to him, the squirrel kicked its head twice with its hind legs, turned around, and disappeared into the forest.
Jin Xiaoman clenched her fist. This is too much!
She ended her cliff-exploration mission for the day, set an anchor point, and turned back to try her luck at the spot where she had last found raspberries.
Since this squirrel loves to eat raspberries, she will find more and then set a trap.
[Beep beep, Level 5 radiation detected. Not edible.]
[Beep beep, Level 4 radiation detected. Consumption is not recommended.]
.........
[Beep beep, Level 1 radiation-emitting plant detected. Edible and marketable.]
Jin Xiaoman had already walked away as usual, but turned back when she heard this.
She looked down at the lush green leaves, swaying in the wind. They seemed familiar, but she couldn't quite place them.
However, since it is a Class 1 radioactive plant, even if it is food I don't recognize, I will bring it back today.
Jin Xiaoman took out a pickaxe and started digging at the land.
In no time, they turned the things up from the soil.
Jin Xiaoman looked at the pickaxe with great admiration. The money was well spent, saving her a lot of effort compared to yesterday's stone.
She crouched down and scraped away the mud covering the thing, discovering it was actually a sweet potato.
She slapped her forehead and said, "Why does he look so familiar? I didn't even recognize him."
A gentle breeze swept across the land once more, and Jin Xiaoman seemed to hear the rustling of gold coins.
Her heart was pounding. Was this entire area, all of it?
That's an incredible fortune!
Jin Xiaoman rubbed his hands together, bent down, and started digging.
One pickaxe after another.
A familiar sound effect came to my ears.
Eighty, eighty, eighty.
She searched for an hour and found the ground covered with dark red sweet potatoes, each about the size of a small winter melon, and all of them were highly radioactive. They could be sold for cash in just half an hour.
She tied the sweet potato vines together, and as she was about to throw them into her spatial storage, she paused for a moment.
She ultimately decided to put one-fifth of the sweet potatoes into her spatial purification space and the rest into her backpack.
It's a bit glaring that everything is radiation-free.
After cleaning the sweet potatoes, Jin Xiaoman remembered something and scanned the soil with her watch.
[Beep beep, Level 1 radioactive soil detected. Consumption is not recommended.]
"I will not eat it."
Jin Xiaoman scooped up piles of soil, piled them into a square, and stored them in her space.
Logically speaking, soil can be purified. If you obtain radiation-free soil and use it to plant radiation-free seeds, I wonder if you will eventually get radiation-free food.
She decided to give it a try.
Only after dealing with all of this did she feel a little better about losing the treasure chest and raspberries.
Looking up, I saw the squirrel perched on a branch not far away.
The squirrel squeaked, one paw outstretched, the other paw tentatively cradling the treasure chest, looking rather comical.
Is this a provocation?
Jin Xiaoman tentatively offered a raspberry.
The squirrel took the raspberries and dropped a treasure chest.
Jin Xiaoman then took out a raspberry and a kiwi for the squirrel to choose from.
The squirrel hesitated for a moment, then took both of them.
Jin Xiaoman returned three treasure chests.
Jin Xiaoman then took out a raspberry and a kiwi, but the squirrel shook its head, didn't take them, and turned to disappear into the dense foliage of the forest.
They came on strong, I thought they had a lot of stock.
Despite saying that, Jin Xiaoman looked at the five treasure chests in her backpack, her eyes narrowing into slits with laughter. She was so lucky!
I glanced at the time; it was already 3 PM. My mental state was down to 30 points, which was a very dangerous number.
She decided to go back to the spot where she had found the kiwis yesterday, pick the rest, and then return to the safe house.
According to the watch, the straight-line distance was only ten minutes, and we arrived quickly.
[Beep beep, Level 5 radiation detected. Not edible.]
Yesterday it was level four, today it's level five.
Does this mean that newly born plants and animals have no radiation level, or only level one, because the radiation level is getting more and more serious in this environment?
If that's the case, then I can't leave my farming business outside the safe haven.
She had previously thought the safe house was too small and wanted to build a fence around it to create a plot of land for planting.
It now seems unlikely that this is feasible.
However, even if it cannot be planted, the kiwifruit should still be taken with its roots.
Jin Xiaoman took out a pickaxe and started digging at the spot where the kiwi fruit was rooted.
Then they carefully pulled them off the trees they were clinging to, tied them together, and threw them into the space.
As the sunlight filters through the gaps in the branches and leaves, creating dappled patterns, a gentle breeze causes the green leaves to sway, filling the air with vitality.
Jin Xiaoman smiled and exclaimed that it was another fruitful day.
On the way back, Jin Xiaoman chose a completely different route than yesterday.
We continued to walk and scan as we went.
Unfortunately, I didn't encounter any plants I recognized, nor any organisms with radiation levels of 2 or lower.
I did find another treasure chest.
By the time we got back to the safe house, it was already 5 p.m.
The symptoms of dizziness and blurred vision, similar to those yesterday, have reappeared.
She was a little confused. Yesterday, she could understand it as hunger, but today she hadn't neglected herself. She hadn't eaten much, but she wasn't so hungry that she felt dizzy.
However, she still took out water and food, and leaned against the wall to rest for a while.
She had originally planned to come back while it was still light to practice her accuracy with the hidden arrow, but now she simply didn't have the strength for it.
I simply took out all the treasure chests I found today and opened them all.
