Post-apocalyptic game: I survive at sea by scavenging for trash.

Lin Zhaoyin wasn't sure if these leafy green vegetables would keep for long like in the real world, so she set aside only the ones she would eat in the next two days. She stuffed the rest into two of the largest snakeskin bags and put them into her system's inventory.

The system backpack can not only store items, but also pause the time of items; it's practically a refrigerator that doesn't need electricity.

If it weren't so late, Lin Zhaoyin would really like to cook a meal right away.

Considering that someone else lived next door, Lin Zhaoyin gave up the idea. It wouldn't be good if Song Shuyan found out.

Lin Zhaoyin also told her sister about what happened today. Compared to encountering an unclaimed island where resources could be gathered, this kind of thing, where you don't know if it's a human or a ghost, is much scarier.

After Song Shuyan leaves tomorrow, Lin Zhaoyin will also need to remind everyone in the chat channel to be careful of the players!

However, Lin Zhaoyin did not intend to speak up herself, because that would reveal her identity to Song Shuyan, who might then leak what she knew, making her a target for others.

Lin Zhaoyin planned to tell Qin Feng about the matter and have him speak to everyone on his behalf. It wouldn't be surprising if a big shot had friends with everyone, and if he spoke, it would be something that would be taken seriously.

However, there was still no news from Qin Feng. Lin Zhaoyin guessed that the big shot was reluctant to part with the island's resources and wanted to collect more supplies. After all, he was a big shot, and Lin Zhaoyin could completely understand this approach.

It wasn't until the morning of the next day that Lin Zhaoyin was able to contact Qin Feng again. Qin Feng had returned in the middle of the night, but considering that everyone was resting at night, he contacted Lin Zhaoyin in the morning.

Qin Feng didn't return voluntarily; he had simply run out of food and water to boost his stamina, and he didn't dare to spend the night on the unclaimed island, so he regretfully returned.

Qin Feng encountered an ant island, but the ants on this island weren't ordinary small ants; they were enormous ants, each the size of a palm. The number of ants wasn't high, but their sheer number was astonishing, and it took Qin Feng quite a while to eliminate them all.

The result of this head-on confrontation with the ants was that Qin Feng leveled up on the island, reaching level 9 and having very little experience left to reach level 10.

The two islands that the younger sister and Qin Feng encountered had something in common: the monsters living on them were all insects. Unfortunately, the younger sister didn't fight any of the bees and had no idea of ​​their strength.

Compared to the abundance of leafy green vegetables on Bee Island, Ant Island's resources are much more obvious. The ingredients are mostly melons, fruits, and beans. In addition, Qin Feng also acquired a lot of materials and items.

When Lin Zhaoyin heard that the ingredients Qin Feng had found were different from hers, a thought struck her.

"Uncle Qin, I have a lot of wood ear mushrooms and other fungi here, as well as leafy greens. Can I trade you some other vegetables?"

Qin Feng naturally wouldn't refuse Lin Zhaoyin's small request, and besides, he himself hadn't seen leafy green vegetables in a long time.

So Lin Zhaoyin picked out a little bit of all the vegetables she had and traded them with Qin Feng for some cucumbers, winter melons, tomatoes, and green beans.

Lin Zhaoyin originally only wanted to exchange a few items, but Qin Feng gave her quite a lot of each kind; the half winter melon alone weighed seven or eight pounds. Lin Zhaoyin felt really embarrassed, so she added two apples that hadn't been properly enhanced.

Qin Feng's attitude towards Lin Zhaoyin was different from that of others, not only because of her high combat strength, but also because her usual words and actions showed that she was a kind girl.

Lin Zhaoyin then mentioned her encounter with Song Shuyan, and Qin Feng agreed to help Lin Zhaoyin spread the word in the chat channel.

Players from China started talking about how to recognize each other in the future, and even said that they should use secret codes that only Chinese people know, because they didn't believe that players from Japan and South Korea knew everything.

In fact, it's not only foreign players who need to be wary.

In the evening, a player asked for help in the chat channel.

[Help! I've been captured! The island has been annexed! Everyone, please don't trust anyone!]

The player only said that one sentence and then never spoke again. He was still alive, but he was probably being controlled.

Lin Zhaoyin immediately thought of the Island Token. If she swallowed someone else's island, would the player whose island was swallowed become a prisoner?

No one knows how the Island Token is used yet. Yesterday, Song Shuyan wanted to kill herself to take the island. Does killing the island player directly grant her the island, or is an Island Token required?

The player who asked for help wasn't killed, probably because the other side thought that the survivors were more useful. Not only could they make the prisoners work, but they also had more combat power, and in critical moments, they could even retreat to shield themselves from disaster.

They need to get more information from this player.

Fortunately, Qin Feng had added this player as a friend. While the raider was asleep, the player, who had been trying to find a way to save themselves, told Qin Feng everything that had happened. Qin Feng then chose to discuss the matter with Lin Zhaoyin.

The raider is Chinese. According to players' speculation, this person may have been a criminal before. He looks very fierce and has a scar on his face. He showed no regard for his fellow countrymen when he attacked.

The player was first severely injured and then used an item to become a prisoner. They then heard a notification that, due to their captivity, the island automatically belonged to the raider. This means that besides island tokens, there are other ways to annex other players' islands.

If prisoners can annex islands, then killing other players directly will most likely work as well.

This message must absolutely not be passed on, otherwise those who are as vicious as this plunderer might go on a killing spree!

No wonder the second phase was so peaceful. Although the game system was guiding players to fight each other from the beginning, most players felt it was unnecessary.

Even the most vicious criminals need other people's supplies and equipment, and don't necessarily have to kill people.

However, if a hidden mechanism allows killing someone to seize an island, then not only these vicious criminals, but also some people who are inherently wicked will try to use this shortcut to obtain more resources.

I don't know if Lin Zhaoyin's bad luck is just too strong, but the more she worries about something, the more likely it is to happen.

On the 37th day of the game's calendar, Lin Zhaoyin met player Kojima again.

In the past two days, people in the chat channel have been saying that they have encountered player islands or unclaimed islands, and the frequency is getting higher and higher.

Given Lin Zhaoyin's luck stat, being given two days' grace is already a sign of the system's mercy.

The most outrageous thing is that when Lin Zhaoyin encountered this island, both sides refused to go ashore and land on the island, but the game seemed to be deliberately going against Lin Zhaoyin.

The two islands, through random movement, were forced to meet!

[Ding! Your island has collided with another player's island. Your island will stop moving for 48 hours!]
