Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Li Ming quickly ate a couple of mouthfuls of rice to calm his nerves.

That's terrible, I'll eat a few more bites.

"I will try my best to find a solution," Xu Jiawei said, comforting them as she noticed the heavy atmosphere among them.

"Xiao Xu, how could we put this on your shoulders? We will definitely find a solution, trust us," Zhang Yunting said.

Finally, the group took a group photo of the gathering, and after everyone helped tidy up, Si Yunming and Zhang Yunting went into the study to discuss the price.

Li Ming, Bai Yu, and Xu Jiawei sat on the sofa, found a deck of cards, and started playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game). After about half an hour, Si Yunming and Zhang Yunting came out of the house. Seeing Zhang Yunting's smile, it seemed that things were going well.

"Xiao Xu, Brother Si, someone else might contact you. Be careful," Zhang Yunting said to Xu Jiawei as he came downstairs.

"Are they officials from other factions?" Xu Jiawei asked.

Zhang Yunting simply smiled and remained silent.

Seeing that the two of them had come down, Li Ming invited them to come and play together. Zhang Yunting didn't stand on ceremony, and the group chatted happily until midnight before leaving.

After seeing the others off, Xu Jiawei prepared to wash up and rest, but she couldn't sleep. She lay in bed for a long time without being able to fall asleep. She was indeed destined to be a busybody. Xu Jiawei sat up.

Since I can't sleep, I might as well get to work.

Afterwards, she will obtain the race advancement stone in the competition and study how to use it again. Does she really have to eat it?

Xu Jiawei tried biting it with her teeth, but chipped her teeth. She then tried to use the method based on her experience reading novels.

Is it like the blood oath ceremony in cultivation novels?

She dripped blood onto it, but there was still no reaction. Xu Jiawei felt a sense of despair, like looking at a treasure trove but not being able to use it. She felt a strong urge to try it.

Xu Jiawei even tried to fuse the stone with the mushroom, but the system prompted her that the quality difference was too great and the fusion could not be achieved.

Finally, Xu Jiawei fell asleep holding the stone. Where she couldn't see, the stone flashed and then slowly disappeared from Xu Jiawei's hand, merging into her body.

Xu Jiawei shone brightly for a moment, then faded into silence.

The next day, the alarm clock rang at 6:30 sharp. Xu Jiawei sat up and suddenly felt much lighter and more energetic.

Sleeping has this function?

Xu Jiawei didn't think much of it and went into the bathroom to wash up. When she saw the appearance of her body, she was shocked. The mushroom on her head had grown much larger at some point. Before, she could cover it with her hair, but now it was completely impossible to cover it up.

The key point is that this mushroom is bright red, and its head looks like it has a tumor.

Xu Jiawei then hurriedly went to the bed to look for it, and sure enough, the race advancement stone was gone. Had she advanced now?

No wonder I felt so light just now, it turns out I've become stronger. I'm so awesome now, Xu Jiawei couldn't help but feel smug.

But how was that stone used? She clearly remembered falling asleep.

Moreover, she has a new skill called Mushroom God in her skill bar. Xu Jiawei opened the skill description.

[Mushroom God: Divine Descent Spell. Summons the Mushroom God to descend upon the world through your own prayer. Consumes 100 mana. (You have been chosen by the gods.)]

Huh? So there are still living gods?

Xu Jiawei didn't say anything more and released herself.

[Ding, summoning failed. The Mushroom God is dead and cannot be summoned.]

Xu Jiawei: ...So what's this skill for?

[Ding! Due to the failure of the Mushroom God summoning, the player has received a random blessing: Strength +50 for 10 minutes.]

Xu Jiawei's eyes lit up. What a great thing! This is a super support skill! 50 strength is equivalent to adding half of it. Even as a support skill, it is very powerful at this stage.

Mushroom God, I will always believe in you!

Xu Jiawei ate something quickly and arrived at the guild base right on time. They agreed to arrive at seven o'clock, but everyone else arrived early except for Xu Jiawei.

Bai Yu finished clearing away the ruins yesterday, and today the group can start building houses.

Xu Jiawei also let the mushrooms out to help. Although the mushrooms were silly, they could still do ordinary work such as building walls and laying foundations.

"Sis, don't you feel that the temperature here is much lower than where we are?" Li Ming felt a bit hot wearing short sleeves this morning, but it's actually a bit cold here.

"Silly child, other people's natural disasters are different from ours." Xu Jiawei patted Li Ming on the shoulder and continued working.

The group didn't say anything more and silently sped up their pace. Fortunately, Zhang Yunting provided the blueprints, which helped them figure out how to build the house.

The blueprints show three floors, but since the space is small, they can only expand upwards. If conditions allowed, Xu Jiawei wanted to build a ten- or eight-story building, but unfortunately, the conditions did not permit it.

Zhang Yunting is very busy lately and will probably have to come over to help in a couple of days.
