The series of announcements made everyone’s spirits rise.

Comprehensive Strength Ranking

1st Place: Su Bai.

2nd Place: Meng Lin.

3rd Place: Wu Qingfeng.

Rewards will be distributed according to ranking.

First place, Su Bai gets Super Rare Blueprint x 1.

Second place, Meng Lin received Super Rare Blueprint x 1.

Third place, Wu Qingfeng received Rare Blueprint x 1.

Although there were not many rewards this time, it was the first time to see a super rare blueprint.

Su Bai had been waiting for the system’s reward, so he checked the blueprint at once.

Super Rare Blueprint: Dracospring

Materials Needed: Iron Ore x 1,000, Bronze Ore x 1,000, Refine Iron x 10.

Can be used to craft a Dracospring.

The first two materials were not too bad, as Su Bai already had enough in his Bag. However, he had yet to see the last material.

“Why is there a refine iron? Is that a legendary material? Why is it so hard to get one? I’ve opened so many treasure chests, but I haven’t even seen one.”

Su Bai was complaining that he was given a blueprint and still required to gather materials slowly.

Meng Lin directly initiated a trade with Su Bai.

Without hesitation, Meng Lin placed the blueprint he had obtained in the trade column and clicked to confirm the trade.

Su Bai hesitated for a while and confirmed the deal. After all, it would be a waste not to take this free blueprint.

Su Bai, on the other hand, was taken aback by Meng Lin’s actions. Meng Lin believed Su Bai had forgiven him for his actions and had even agreed to accept him as an underling.

Su Bai was already very satisfied. He didn’t really care about Meng Lin’s reward for second place. He felt that as long as he had this ultimate fishing rod, he could get whatever he wanted.

Meng Lin texted, [Su Bai, I will follow you from now on. Please take care of me.]

Su Bai replied, […]

Meng Lin replied, [Su Bai, please don’t be silent. Look at how sincere I am.]

Meng Lin texted, [To be honest, I’m a little short on materials now. You know that the Oanneses have been snatching materials for the past few days. All my materials have been snatched away.]

Su Bai replied, […]

Meng Lin texted, [Come on, bro. You can just give me a little.]

Su Bai was having a headache.

Su Bai replied, [Alright, stop talking. I’m giving you something. Just shut up already!]

To stop Meng Lin from harassing him, Su Bai had to open the trade.

Su Bai had originally wanted to give Meng Lin some random things, but he suddenly realized that he was almost full of materials again after fishing for a few hours.

Su Bai made up his mind and directly packed up these materials.

Su Bai texted, [I’ll give you the materials later. You can upgrade your Bag first, then I’ll give you another batch.]

Su Bai directly put five pieces of Oannes skin on for trade.

He had killed quite a few Oanneses in the previous few days, and since he could open the golden chest, these five Oannes skins were unimportant.

‘Oannes skin?’ Meng Lin was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect the Oannes to drop Oannes skin.

But Meng Lin still followed Su Bai’s instructions and upgraded his Bag.

Meng Lin texted, [Su Bai, my Bag has been upgraded. This new Bag is too big.]

Su Bai replied, [Just shut up!]

Su Bai was having a headache. He had never expected Meng Lin to be so talkative.

‘No matter what, he was still the leader of an alliance. Shouldn’t he have the demeanor of an expert? Yet, why did he seem like a clown in front of me?’ Su Bai thought.

Su Bai’s only wish was to quickly give Meng Lin the materials and stop him from bothering him too much.

Su Bai immediately opened the trade and rummaged through his Bag. Other than the legendary materials, he also got two super fishing rods.

After confirming the transaction, Su Bai felt that it was not safe, so he quickly added, [No more nonsense. After you get it, you’d better develop properly!]

Meng Lin had thought that Su Bai would only give him a few hundred wooden planks or silk threads.

However, when Meng Lin saw that the materials in the trade column were all in the thousands, he was completely dumbfounded.

After shakily clicking on the confirmation button, he wanted to please and worship Su Bai again, but after hearing what Su Bai said, he swallowed all his words.

It was already late at night. If he wasn’t waiting for the rewards on the ranking list, Su Bai would have gone to bed long ago.

After activating the AFF on the fishing rods, Su Bai entered dreamland. He didn’t wake up until the sun was high in the sky.

When Su Bai woke up in the morning and saw the golden chests in his Bag, Su Bai rubbed his hands in excitement.

Fortunately, treasure chests could be stacked, or else the AFF would have been wasted.

Golden Chest successfully opened: You’ve obtained Silk Thread x 452!

Golden Chest successfully opened: You’ve obtained Silk Thread x 471!

Golden Chest successfully opened: You’ve obtained Iron Ore x 23!

Golden Chest successfully opened: You’ve obtained Oannes Skin x 1!

Golden Chest successfully opened: You’ve obtained Island Upgrade Core x 1!

Golden Chest successfully opened: You’ve obtained Refine Iron x 1!

…

After all the golden chests were opened, Su Bai looked at his Bag full of things and fell into deep thought.

He suddenly felt like he had turned this difficult material-gathering game into a game where he had to find a way to deal with the materials every day.

Trigger condition has been met. Shallow Sea region unlocked.

Would you like to move to the Shallow Sea region, player?

“No!” Su Bai gave a direct answer.

It wasn’t because Su Bai was at ease with the current situation, but because he couldn’t go to the Shallow Sea alone, in case the connection was cut off.

‘What if there were countless dangers after going to the Shallow Sea, and I would be alone there again?’ Su Bai thought.

At that moment, Su Bai thought of his underling. He felt that he must bring him along if Su Bai were to go to the Shallow Sea. If Su Bai was really bored, he could always have that clown to make him happy.

Of course, Su Bai had to control Meng Lin to a certain extent, or else he would be annoyed to death.

After making up his mind, Su Bai was not in a hurry.

During these days, Su Bai could collect the island upgrade cores and refine irons. The former was to let Meng Lin go with Su Bai, and the latter was to increase Su Bai’s combat power in case of an accident.

After a few days of hard work, Su Bai had finally gathered all the island upgrade cores.

Su Bai opened his friend list and chose to trade with Meng Lin.

[This is an Island upgrade core that can be used to upgrade your island. Hurry up and upgrade. After you’re done, come with me to the Shallow Sea region.]

Meng Lin replied, [Su Bai, I’m so touched. I didn’t expect you to wait for me. You didn’t go to the Shallow Sea region first. Don’t worry, I’ll do everything as you said. I’m upgrading the island now.]

Ten minutes later, Meng Lin sent another message. [Su Bai, I’m done upgrading the island. Let’s go!]

“Hey System, teleport us to the Shallow Sea region!”

Teleporting…
