Chapter 43 Extraordinary Path
The badge is small, about the size of a one-yuan coin, made of metal, with a smooth and slightly cool surface.
The design resembles a blooming wave, with a small piece of white scallop embedded in the center.
The overall workmanship is exquisite and highly artistic.
[Item: Environmental Guardian Badge (Bound, Untradeable)]
【Type: Jewelry】
[Quality: Blue]
[Description: This badge serves as proof of your recognition as an outstanding marine citizen by the "Marine Conservation Organization." With this badge, you can freely enter most places and check whether others adhere to environmental principles. (Before showing this badge, it's best to confirm whether the other party is an anti-environmental activist to avoid getting beaten up.)]
[Congratulations on discovering the extraordinary path: Environmental Guardian (Murloc/Nature Side/Order Bias)]
[Description: Those who identify with the Fish-Man race's ideals and uphold the Fish-Man leader's will will be directly favored and protected by this leader's power system! The strength of their power and the speed of their advancement are closely related to their contributions to environmental protection and the purity and steadfastness of their beliefs.]
[How to use: When the three-dimensional attributes reach the physical limit, hold the badge and loudly recite the following maxim]
For the great cause of marine environmental protection, I will dedicate my wisdom, strength, and even my life! Clean every beach, purify every drop of seawater, and let the glory of the azure sky illuminate all waters! I will fight for this great cause of environmental protection for the rest of my life!
"Interesting..." Yu Wang fiddled with the small wave-shaped badge, then suddenly realized...
Many fragments of memories from past lives are connected at this moment.
No wonder that in the previous life, there was a group of extreme environmentalists among the survivors who were almost fanatical in their advocacy of environmental protection.
Those people are willing to risk their lives to dive into dangerous areas in order to retrieve a torn plastic bag from the deep sea;
They might engage in fierce conflicts or even life-or-death struggles with sea monsters just to pick up a piece of floating styrofoam or a few used batteries.
They are abnormally strict with themselves and others regarding environmental protection, adhering to a set of precepts almost like ascetics...
At the time, many bystanders thought that these people were either brainwashed by seawater or brainwashed by some cult.
Now, the answer has been revealed.
They are practicing spiritual cultivation!
Just thinking about how those people are so obsessed with environmental protection that they're practically insane, as if their own choice to be vegetarian isn't enough, they have to wash other people's bowls and chopsticks, fill them with vegetables, and not tolerate a single trace of meat.
Yu Wang felt a chill run down his spine after just a brief moment of contemplation, and he kept his distance from this extraordinary path.
However, even without going through the "environmental guardian" route, the value of this badge itself should not be underestimated.
Carrying this is much more convenient than carrying a ladder to get in and out of various places!
He carefully put the badge away and kept it close to his body. Then, as usual, he began a final check of the ship's condition.
Everything seemed to be in place, except for the uninvited mist.
At some point, a thin layer of milky-white mist began to spread across the sea outside the ship. The mist was not thick, not as dense as the pitch-black darkness of the previous night, but it made the blood moon's light even more hazy and added a touch of eeriness to the tranquil night sea.
The temperature in the air seemed to drop a few degrees, bringing a damp chill that seeped into the bones.
You feel a little uneasy; your rationality has decreased by 1.
Yu Wang glanced at the system time: 8 PM.
The steady glow of the fish oil lamp filled the small space inside the cabin and also illuminated the nearby waters outside the window.
So far, the area around the Little Yellow Duck has remained relatively calm.
The spherical shadow that brought immense pressure last night did not appear; it may be quietly observing this sea area from the depths of the dense fog further away.
At this moment, only one [Black-haired Water Demon] is wandering around in an area about ten meters away.
Like the drowned, it is a relatively common low-level nighttime anomaly. It looks like a big-headed doll, but its whole body is covered with long, jet-black hair that can move like tentacles in the water, dragging its prey into the water to drown.
Compared to the drowned corpses, the black-haired water monsters' large heads were not for nothing; they were much smarter and knew how to assess situations.
For example, it can sense the threat of the "water rocket cannon" and know that it is a tough opponent, so it does not approach rashly.
However, the water sprite acted somewhat nervously. One moment it seemed to be frightened by something and suddenly moved more than ten meters closer to the Little Yellow Duck, only to be forced back by the water cannon.
After a while, as if whipped by an invisible lash, it hurriedly returned to the vicinity of the little yellow duck, trembling as it tentatively approached.
It comes and goes, unpredictable and fickle.
Yu Wang frowned.
New survivors have a very low chance of encountering monsters at night.
Among the 10 survivors in Zone 444, a considerable number are probably lucky enough to have never encountered the eeriness of the night.
"I encountered monsters for three out of four nights... Am I being targeted, or am I just unlucky?" he wondered helplessly.
Yu Wang had already realized that the spherical monster hadn't given up at all.
Finding itself unable to get close, it sent some of its minions over to test the waters.
After confirming that it was still safe tonight, Yu Wang restarted the automatic attack mode of the "Water Arrow Cannon," set the protection range to the entire ship, and went back to sleep.
If you want to quickly restore your energy, sleeping is undoubtedly the most economical and effective way.
The next morning, as dawn broke, the blood moon had already disappeared.
Yu Wang was naturally awakened by his biological clock and immediately checked his personal status:
-
Captain: Yu Wang
[Extraordinary Path Unlocked: Environmental Guardian]
【Title: Eye-Catching Bag I】
Qi and Blood: 100%
Strength: 4.76+1
Physical fitness: 6.05+1
Speed: 5.8+1
Physical strength: 87%
Spirit: 90/100
Rationality: 93/100
-
His condition was almost fully restored! This gave him a boost of energy.
"This is the longest I've slept since I started playing the game."
Yu Wang sighed. He goes to bed at eight o'clock and gets up at six o'clock. He hasn't had such a healthy routine since he graduated from elementary school.
After a simple stretch, he opened the base storage compartment of the 'Water Arrow Cannon', and sure enough, there were more items dropped by the black-haired water demon inside.
It seems that the innocent cannon fodder monster from last night was ultimately forced onto the ship.
Congratulations on obtaining: Resilient Hair x1
[Quality: White]
[Description: Taken from the toughest strands of hair in the Black-haired Water Fairy's body, possessing amazing resilience and a slight chilling attribute. It can be used as an auxiliary material for weaving ropes and bowstrings. (Items made using this material have a chance to reduce sanity.)]
Yu Wang carefully put away the strand of hair with satisfaction.
Even though it's only white-quality material, every little bit helps, and he did have the idea of making a ranged weapon.
A bow and arrow would be perfect; he had indeed put in a lot of hard work with them before. While he wouldn't dare say he'd hit the bullseye every time, he was quite confident in achieving a consistent hit rate of seven or eight out of ten within the effective range.
After putting away the materials, Yu Wang didn't delay any longer and began preparing the items he would bring into the dungeon from his backpack.
Your backpack only has 10 slots. Besides the necessary supplies, you need to set aside some for loot from dungeons.
However, he can also bring the large hiking backpack he brought with him when he entered the game, which can be used to carry some basic supplies to relieve the pressure on his backpack space.
The space backpack contained: monster essence that concealed its presence, alcohol, and most importantly, a 'basic universal antidote'.
The backpack contained: 3 bottles of fresh water, 3 caterpillar-shaped sandwich breads, bandages, and Kangfuxin Pro liquid.
As for self-defense and combat equipment: crab claw harpoons, fish skin wrist guards, spare wrist guards, daggers, and giant lobster armor, they are all naturally carried on my person.
Finally, he put the "Environmental Guardian" badge in his pocket.
"The situation is at its peak, supplies are plentiful, it's time."
Yu Wang took out the [Seaweed Farm Admission Ticket] and silently recited the instructions to use it.
