Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

After finishing his conversation with the old man, Mo Feng's expression immediately changed, turning sour. Seeing Mo Feng's expression, Xu Jiawei quickly said goodbye and left.

Knowing she was about to become Mo Feng's punching bag, Xu Jiawei tactfully covered her nose and ran away.

Back on her own boat, Xu Jiawei lay on her bed, covering her bleeding nose. Although the symptoms had lessened considerably, she was so tired and hot!

She was sweating all over after only a short time back home. Xu Jiawei turned on the high-end air conditioner in the bedroom and fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already midnight, and Xu Jiawei was a little hungry.

At this point, I'm sorry to trouble Si Yunming, so I'll just have the machine I got earlier randomly make me a meal to fill my stomach.

After resting for a few hours, Xu Jiawei felt much better.

She opened the system panel, and it seemed that a system notification sound appeared when she successfully drew the barrier, indicating that something had been upgraded. However, Xu Jiawei's attention was focused on the barrier at the time, and she didn't pay any attention to it.

Xu Jiawei brought up the previous prompts.

[Ding! Congratulations, player! All skills have reached the highest proficiency level. (Difficult challenges are the best way to hone one's abilities.)]

The system was right. Xu Jiawei, who had been affected by the barrier, had become much stronger in controlling her magic and mental power. She could now release skills in just one second. Xu Jiawei felt that if she continued to practice like this, it wouldn't be a dream for her to release many skills in an instant.

Xu Jiawei stood up and went straight to the basement. She was going to draw a barrier in the basement. As soon as she entered the basement, Xu Jiawei felt a wave of heat hit her.

After all, the basement is like a small factory, where you can make things and brew potions. Right now there's nothing to make, so most of the mushrooms are brewing potions. With just these dozen or so crucibles and furnaces, it's practically a giant steamer, extremely stuffy and hot.

Her mushrooms were almost dried out and wilted, while Little Bronze was supervising and helping, acting like a slave owner oppressing the working mushrooms. Xu Jiawei's conscience ached for three seconds, but then she returned to normal.

Little Bronze no longer needed to tend the fireplace or incubate the eggs, so it had nothing to do and came here to help. Therefore, it did so voluntarily.

After finding a decent-looking spot, Xu Jiawei had the staff put away the miscellaneous items, which were unsold stock that had been stored there.

Xu Jiawei packed all these things and sent them to Zhang Yunting, asking him to find a way to dispose of them cheaply, since the natural disaster was over and these cotton-padded clothes seemed useless.

Xu Jiawei took a deep breath, recalling her previous success, and used her magic to draw the rune. After that success, she had gained experience and the drawing process became very easy. She didn't even have a nosebleed after finishing the drawing, and she succeeded on her first try.

After the energy stone was placed in the magic circle, the runes flashed with light, and with a hum, an invisible light shield enveloped it.

[Ding! Congratulations, player, you have activated the basic barrier. The maximum adjustable temperature is 20 degrees Celsius. Keep up the good work!]

The teacher didn't tell her that this thing also has different levels of sophistication. What can you do at 20 degrees Celsius? For players like them, it's just a drop in the ocean, equivalent to an air conditioner.

Xu Jiawei would be lying if she said she wasn't disappointed. It was just like when Xu Jiawei used to play games and get a really powerful skill, only to find out that it was just a basic skill. To upgrade it to the level shown in the skill display, she would have to spend more resources and upgrade several levels. In short, she felt cheated.

Well, something is better than nothing. The perceived temperature has really dropped a lot now, so she still needs to make more preparations to cope with natural disasters.

If extreme cold can produce hot water bottle mushrooms, then can extreme heat produce ice mushrooms?

Xu Jiawei happened to still have the Frost Pearl in her hand.

This thing was probably prepared by the system to help players get through the extreme heat.

【Frost Bead: Reduces perceived body temperature after use, lasting for 2 hours.】

Xu Jiawei fused the ice beads with the mushroom.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for obtaining the Ice Mushroom. It grants a feeling of ice, like holding a block of ice. It is a mutated mushroom fused by the creator AAA Mushroom Fairy, carrying the creator's strong wishes.]

After my luck improved, even my talent success rate increased significantly, and I rarely failed anymore.

Even though the temperature dropped by 20 degrees, the basement was still very hot, so Xu Jiawei made a lot of ice mushrooms and placed them in the basement, which lowered the temperature considerably.

Back indoors, the temperature was indeed just right without needing air conditioning. The current indoor temperature was the most suitable after the barrier adjustment. However, when the temperature difference between the outside and the inside of the ship exceeded 20 degrees Celsius, the temperature would rise.

It's been a while since I opened any boxes. Anyway, I don't have anything else to do right now, so I'll open one and see if I can get any Cataclysm items.

Congratulations to the player who opened the chest and obtained 1 Ice Bead and 2 Cooling Patches!

Congratulations to the player who obtained 1 Pet Energy Potion from the chest!

......

Xu Jiawei immediately got the guaranteed reward, and then took out a golden treasure chest and opened it.

[Congratulations to the player for opening the chest and obtaining: Advanced Refrigerator Blueprint *1, Basic Air Conditioner Blueprint *1, Ice Beads *3, Advanced Waterbed *2, Humidifier *1]

Goodness, it's afraid it won't cook properly, so it's using a humidifier and a high-end waterbed. It's trying to steam itself alive. But the current temperature is still somewhat useful.

Continuing to open the chests, Xu Jiawei prepared to open all the golden treasure chests, which were gifts from the boss and the others as a token of their gratitude.

......

[Congratulations! Players have obtained the following items from the chest: Advanced Air Conditioner Blueprint *1, Basic Refrigerator Blueprint *1, Gold Quality Pet Talent Enhancement Potion *1, and Attribute Fruit *2]

Xu Jiawei took out a glittering potion.

[Gold-quality Pet Talent Enhancement Potion: Can increase the talent level of pets with a talent rank of A or below by one level.]

Rainbow's talent is only C, while Red Earthworm and Little Pink's talents are both A or higher. This talent enhancement potion is perfect for Rainbow, so Xu Jiawei released Rainbow and fed it the potion.

Then the rainbow flashed with golden light and returned to calm, its appearance unchanged.

Intimacy: MAX

(Evaluation: A creature you personally imbued with your spirit will never betray you. It has excellent potential for growth and can become stronger with diligent nurturing.)

Although the attributes have hardly changed, the transplant technique has been upgraded. Previously, a rainbow was needed to heal, but now it is no longer needed.

But why is there a level cap, and how is this cap increased?

Unable to figure it out, Xu Jiawei continued opening the box, perhaps she could try making a wish.

Without hesitation, Xu Jiawei made a wish to obtain something that would increase the pet's level cap.

[Congratulations to the player who opened the chest and obtained 10 Silver Bell Grass, 1 Pet Breakthrough Potion Recipe, 2 Frost Beads, and 2 Pet Energy Potions]

Ah, do I need to refine this myself?
