In this oceanic survival world, there shouldn't be pirates like Wang Lufei, right?
Or perhaps legendary Chinese figures might appear?
Jingwei filling the sea? The Dragon King's underwater palace?
If it really were like this, things could get quite dangerous.
Even if such beings existed, they'd likely appear much later.
Right now, most people are still at risk of starving or dying of thirst—these concepts are far too distant for them.
Luo Feng, however, was somewhat hopeful about encountering items like Talent Fruits.
If he obtained one Talent Fruit and triggered the Ten Thousand-Fold Reward to get ten thousand of them...
Wouldn't that make him rich?
Previously, when everyone's combat abilities couldn't be improved, Luo Feng naturally hadn't considered forming a faction.
But now the situation was different.
Once people's strength increased and some awakened special Talents, they might come to ambush Luo Feng.
That wouldn't be ideal for him.
If things truly progressed as Luo Feng envisioned, he was confident he could eventually establish an organization composed entirely of individuals with SSS-Rank Talents.
With the system at his disposal, he had every reason to be confident.
Just as Luo Feng was lost in fantasies about the future, a voice abruptly pulled him back to reality.
"Luo Feng, I've awakened a Talent—an S-Rank Talent!"
"What? An S-Rank Talent?"
Luo Feng was stunned by Tang Xuewei's words. Not only had she awakened a Talent, but it was an S-Rank one at that.
That sounded absolutely terrifying.
For someone like Luo Feng who hadn't awakened any Talent, this news delivered a massive psychological blow.
With astonishment, Luo Feng asked, "You awakened an S-Rank Talent?"
Tang Xuewei replied excitedly, "Yes! This time, I really lucked out thanks to you. I awakened the S-Rank Talent 'Wish Come True.'"
"Wish Come True?"Luo Feng found this four-character idiom strangely familiar."
This would require a Chinese teacher to explain.
Chinese teacher: Look it up in the idiom dictionary yourself.
After some thought, Luo Feng said, "Judging by the literal meaning, does it mean whatever you think of comes true?"
Tang Xuewei was overflowing with excitement. Now that she'd awakened an S-Rank Talent, she could finally be of real help to Luo Feng.
She eagerly explained, "Yes, exactly what you're thinking!
But it only works within my own capability limits—it can't exceed them by too much.
Also, each use consumes my energy.
If I overuse it, there'll be side effects.
So I can't use it recklessly."
Hearing this, Luo Feng grew even more curious. Could such a miraculous Talent really exist?
After pondering, he said, "Could you test your ability for me?
I've never seen anything like this before."
Naturally, Tang Xuewei wouldn't refuse Luo Feng's request. She was equally curious about how her new ability worked.
Closing her eyes, Tang Xuewei concentrated on activating her S-Rank Talent.
She spoke slowly, "I wish for a small animal to appear before me... and then faint."
After finishing her words, she gradually opened her eyes to see what lay ahead.
Luo Feng, standing beside Tang Xuewei, naturally heard what she said. Could it really be that simple?
Would little animals just come running to them?
Anyone unaware might think Tang Xuewei was ordering takeout.
Ten seconds later, nothing had changed before them.
Seeing this, Tang Xuewei couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Could it be that her Talent had no effect?
Noticing her expression, Luo Feng comforted her, "It's fine if it didn't work. Your S-Rank Talent definitely isn't simple—maybe you're just using it the wrong way.
Just keep trying, and you'll figure it out."
As he spoke, Luo Feng nudged the Ice Rabbit beside him, which was just standing there dumbly staring. It really had no sense of awareness.
No wonder its partner had cheated on it.
Fortunately, after spending so much time with Luo Feng, the Ice Rabbit immediately understood what his kick meant.
It leaped in front of Tang Xuewei, then flopped to the ground, pretending to faint.
"See? Your wish came true."
Luo Feng was quite satisfied with the Ice Rabbit's reaction. It seemed the Ice Carrots he'd fed it before hadn't gone to waste.
Tang Xuewei burst into laughter at the Ice Rabbit's antics. "Wei, you've been a bad influence on it.
At this rate, it's going to turn into a full-on delinquent rabbit.
And start corrupting other rabbits.
I'll study my S-Rank Talent more later.
Let's get moving for now."
Luo Feng smiled slightly at her words. "Alright, let's go."
But the moment they took two steps forward, a sudden, violent rustling erupted from ahead.
The sound was fast.
Luo Feng immediately drew his Legendary Cloud-Piercing Bow.
A white figure burst out from the bushes ahead—
And promptly slammed headfirst into a massive Ice Tree.
Then, it collapsed, unconscious.
At this sight—
Luo Feng was stunned.
Tang Xuewei was also stunned.
Wish Come True… was actually real?
"This… an Ice Rabbit just fainted in front of us?"
Luo Feng stared at the unconscious Ice Rabbit, a huge question mark forming in his mind.
Tang Xuewei, seeing an actual Ice Rabbit faint before her, was overwhelmed with excitement. This proved her S-Rank Talent really worked!
With a thrilled expression, she exclaimed, "Luo Feng, my wish came true! From now on, I can actually help you. I'm so happy!"
Luo Feng finally accepted this seemingly unbelievable reality.
Naturally, he was happy for Tang Xuewei's newfound ability. "Congratulations. Looks like I'll be relying on your help a lot in the future."
Tang Xuewei smiled brightly. "If you ever have a wish you want granted, just come to me.
I'll make it happen for you."
Hearing this, Luo Feng suddenly had an idea. "Can you… wish for your sister to appear before us?"
Tang Xuewei's expression dimmed slightly. "I've already tried. The energy I have now isn't enough to fulfill that wish.
But just because it's not enough now doesn't mean it won't be later.
Once I have enough energy, I'll make that wish—to bring my sister to us."
Luo Feng wasn't surprised to hear Tang Xuewei say this. Although her Talent was S-rank, there were bound to be some limitations.
If one could truly make anything happen just by thinking about it, it would require at least an SSSSSSSSS-rank ability to achieve.
Thinking this, Luo Feng spoke up: "Alright, you don't need to worry too much. We'll find your sister Wei sooner or later."
