Chapter 16 - The offensive of the sea snakes

She held an iron spear and continuously lashed at the sea snakes in the water. However, the resistance of the water weakened the power of the iron spear.

 

Unlike sea fish, sea snakes are extremely slippery and difficult to pierce.

Just lashing the water surface can't scare away the sea snakes that are eyeing the foundation stone!

An Ran's arm was already sore, but the sea snakes still kept attacking the foundation stone.

Although she had three foundation stones in her hand, they were for her parents, and she couldn't use them casually.

An Ran kept thrusting into the water, stirring and lashing, but the sea snakes seemed to be used to her attacks and showed no sign of fear.

At the same time, the sea snakes seemed determined to destroy the foundation stone, and they were bound to do it!

An Ran tried her best to stop them, but she could only delay the sea snakes' offensive and couldn't drive them away.

The two sides were at a stalemate.

Xiao Yi and An Yue repeatedly sent messages looking for An Ran, but An Ran didn't have the time to return to the island tablet.

"Didi, warning: The island foundation is under attack!"

Xiao Yi glanced at the private message helplessly, grabbed the knife and spear and rushed out again.

The sea surface near Jiang Yuntian gradually calmed down. He retracted the anchor chain and continued to sail towards Xiao Yi's island.

"Eh, there's a small island ahead!" Jiang Yuntian found a small island on the left side of the direction of travel.

After a moment of thought, he resolutely gave up the idea of investigating.

With his strength, it's not difficult for him to deal with most people, but he's not the kind of person who kills indiscriminately.

If someone attacks, they will be eliminated no matter how far away they are; if they don't, everything will be fine.

"Xiao Yi, I found a small island!" Jiang Yuntian reported in the group...

"Let's put this aside for now." Xiao Yi had just repelled the ordinary sea beasts that invaded the foundation of his island and immediately replied to Jiang Yuntian's message.

"Got it!" Jiang Yuntian responded.

Xiao Yi urgently needed help. With just his own strength, it was really difficult to take care of everything. He had to pay attention to the messages on the island tablet, monitor the sailing situation of Jiang Yuntian and Yuan Nong, provide supplies at any time, and deal with the attacks on the island. Not to mention the trivial matters of planting and raising!

At Jiang Yuntian's current sailing speed, it is expected that he will reach Xiao Yi's island tomorrow!

At this moment, a small boat quietly followed behind Jiang Yuntian's sailboat. A middle-aged man with a full beard rowed the small boat vigorously.

"The big boat is really as fast as lightning!" The bearded man whispered, his eyes shining with greed as he looked at the medium-sized sailboat!

Since there are no detection devices like radar, Jiang Yuntian needs to keep an eye on the course and continuously repair the hull damaged by small marine creatures. He has no time to pay attention to the vast sea around him, which gives the bearded man an opportunity!

Xiao Yi was racing against time. In a hurry, he cooked a large pot of spareribs soup, added some potatoes, and it became everyone's lunch. Of course, there were also cucumbers just picked from the field and newly boiled milk.

"[Wild Boar Spareribs Soup]1 kilogram, [Cucumbers]200 grams, [Milk] (Grade A) 500 milliliters, the transaction is completed."

"It's not easy to have these. Many people can't even fill their stomachs or drink sweet water." Su Wan said.

"What Su Wan said is very true. This is already a luxurious meal for us!" Yuan Nong, who had gotten rid of the entanglement of the orca, was in a good mood.

"If this is making do, I'd like to make do every day!" Jiang Yuntian laughed.

An Yue didn't accept the transaction. He stared closely at the island tablet, hoping that someone would send him a private message, but he never got his wish.

"Uncle An, have your meal. If An Ran sees it, she will definitely contact you." Xiao Yi said. An Yue nodded and accepted the transaction.

Just as Xiao Yi took a sip of the soup, the island tablet warned that the island foundation was under attack again!

"It's really never peaceful!" Before setting out, Xiao Yi sent basic supplies to Jiang Yuntian and Yuan Nong again, and then rushed out.

Fortunately, this time it was just ordinary sea fish, and Xiao Yi easily dealt with them. "The island is vast, and not all the attacking sea beasts are of a high level." He thought, "Yesterday there was a shark, but it was of an ordinary level. Only the electric eel was of Grade C. Today, there was a Grade B sea turtle, and the other two attacks were just ordinary sea fish. Maybe there is only one high-level sea beast every day, and the rest are ordinary."

This is just a guess. He needs to observe for a few more days to know the specific situation.

When he returned to the apartment and finished his lunch, Xiao Yi added feed to the chicken coop and the cowshed.

There were no chicks in the chicken coop, and the feed didn't need to be too fine. The grass was casually chopped up, mixed with fish meal and thrown in, and corn was occasionally fed. There was no surplus of wheat. If the planting area could be expanded, it might be able to supply the chickens. However, wheat is a Grade A crop, and currently, there is very little Grade A soil, only in the flower bed and the wooden basin.

In fact, not only wheat, but also Grade S forage can only be planted in the other flower bed by squeezing in some space to maintain the level of the dairy cows. Most of the forage is still planted in the ordinary field.

"I really wish I could get more high-level soil." Xiao Yi murmured.

This is just a fantasy. High-level soil is not so easy to obtain. Even if he gets some, it's only a little each time, far from enough to meet the need for expanding the planting area.

Jiang Yuntian and Yuan Nong continued to repair the sailboat as the night gradually fell.

In the afternoon, Xiao Yi dealt with the last sea beast that attacked the island foundation, and it was still of an ordinary level. According to the pattern of the past two days, Xiao Yi's island is attacked four times a day, and one of them is by a high-level sea beast. The specific level is unknown.

It was Grade C on the first day and Grade B on the second day.

"I hope it's not increasing. If it goes on like this, we might encounter a Grade S sea beast this weekend!" Xiao Yi thought to himself.

Wangcai dragged the six supply boxes caught by the automatic fishing net to the door of the apartment. Xiao Yi went up and opened them.

"Obtained supplies: Foundation stone * 2, Wood..."

"Obtained supplies: Winter melon seeds * 5, Stones..."

"Obtained supplies: Foundation stone * 3."

"Obtained supplies: Stone house construction plan * 1, Copper..."

...

From the six supply boxes, he got five foundation stones, which was not bad. There was no food or water. But getting a house construction plan surprised Xiao Yi!

"[Stone House Construction Plan]: Stones * 100, Wood * 20."

"Now everyone will have a place to live!" Xiao Yi whispered. He already had two wooden houses, one stone house, and with the apartment, it was more than enough.

At this time, Su Wan initiated a transaction.

"[Foundation stone]* 1, [Orange seeds]* 5, [Stones]* 2,... The transaction is completed."

"I only got one foundation stone from the two boxes today." Su Wan said helplessly.

"It's already good to have a foundation stone!" Xiao Yi said, "At least you got fruit seeds, which is great!"

"For most people, getting seeds doesn't mean much. It's not easy to obtain soil. If it's a fruit tree, it's okay if it doesn't take up much space. But for something like wheat that requires a large planting area, it tests the area of the island. Even if the above two points are not a problem, there's one more crucial point!" Before Xiao Yi could answer, Su Wan continued, "Water! Nowadays, people are even thirsty, so there's no extra water to irrigate the plants."

"You're right!" Xiao Yi nodded in approval. After agreeing to the transaction, Xiao Yi got the orange seeds and planted the five seeds at the edge of the field and casually poured some Grade S clean water on them.

After returning to the island tablet, An Yue also sent a transaction.

"[Foundation stone]* 2, [Soil improvement card]* 1, [Copper]* 5,... The transaction is completed."

"I caught these today, and I also have some saved supplies. I'm trading them all to you. You can definitely make better use of them in your hands." An Yue said.

"Uncle An, you're not in a good condition to move around. You don't have to be in a hurry to catch the supply boxes!" Xiao Yi's eyes lit up when he saw the soil improvement card, but he still frowned and said.

"How can I just eat and drink for free!" An Yue replied.

"Make sure to take care of your wound!" Xiao Yi reminded, and then said, "The arable land I have here is already used up. Fortunately, you got the card!"

After the transaction, Xiao Yi used the soil improvement card next to the previous four fields, and there was an additional fifty square meters of arable land. He immediately sowed the winter melon seeds.

After planting, Xiao Yi returned to the island tablet and switched to the public channel...

A day has passed, and the message of searching for someone should have spread. Can we change the topic and discuss something else now?"
