Announcement Rewards

The next moment, a burst of white light enveloped the sandy ground in front of Ji Xinghe. The light was accompanied by the sound of plastic being pulled taut and wood clunking together.

Five seconds later, a blue plastic tent measuring 1 by 2 meters occupied half the island all by itself.

Its entrance faced the open sandy ground, with waves surging behind it. Fortunately, the plastic blocked most of the seawater...

Shelter Details.

[Tent Shelter (Level 1): Two square meters, barely enough to keep out the wind and rain. Be careful, though—you might get rheumatism.

Upgrade Requirements: Thatch ×50, Wood ×50, Stone ×20, Wow Coins ×10, Island at Level 2.]

Yes, a Level 1 Shelter was just a small tent. Its only furnishing was a few wooden boards laid directly on the ground.

Bzzzt, just then, the system's mechanical voice suddenly sounded in her mind.

[Congratulations, Player 001, on completing the first Shelter construction achievement in your district. Rewards: Achievement Point ×1, Raffle Ticket ×1, Free Attribute Point ×1.]

[The player has entered the Survival World. Would you like to make an announcement? Announcing it will grant double rewards.]

Ji Xinghe thought for just 0.1 seconds before tapping Agree.

If she didn't announce it now, she would still have to reveal her nickname once the Rankings came out. She might as well announce it now and get something out of it.

[The player has another unannounced achievement. The system will announce it as well.]

[District Announcement: Congratulations, Player 001, on completing the first Tier 1 monster kill achievement in your district. Rewards: Achievement Point ×1, Raffle Ticket ×1, Free Attribute Point ×1.]

[District Announcement: Congratulations, Player 001, on completing the first Shelter construction achievement in your district. Rewards: Achievement Point ×1, Raffle Ticket ×1, Free Attribute Point ×1.]

She'd gained another Achievement Point +3, Raffle Ticket +3, and Free Attribute Point +3...

But this time, Ji Xinghe didn't assign her points right away. Instead, she tapped the [Island] button on the transparent panel.

She might as well upgrade the island at the same time, before someone else got there first.

[Island (Level 1): Four square meters.

Prosperity: 5

Daily Output: 1 Wow Coin (can be claimed once per day)

Upgrade Requirements: 10 Wow Coins, expand the island to twenty square meters, and successfully reinforce the entire area.]

She checked her backpack. She had 36 units of soil and 31 Foundation Stones, enough to reach Level 2.

As for Wow Coins, she could only claim them once a day. Naturally, she would claim them after upgrading, to make the most of her resources.

[Spend 16 units of soil and 16 units of Foundation Stone to expand and reinforce the island?]

Confirm.

The next second, the soil and Foundation Stones flew out of her backpack on their own and settled over the island.

Like pieces in a game, the patches of land could be placed wherever Ji Xinghe wanted.

She added three squares to the width and two to the length, placing the tent right in the center of the island.

Before long, a 4-by-5-meter island had been built.

Ji Xinghe hurried to upgrade it.

[Spend ten Wow Coins to upgrade the island?]

She rubbed her hands together and immediately tapped "Yes."

[Upgrade successful. The current island is Level 2.]

[Island (Level 2): Twenty square meters.

Prosperity: 21

Daily Output: 1 Wow Coin (can be claimed once per day)

Upgrade Requirements: Reach 50 Prosperity, have 50 Wow Coins, expand the island to fifty square meters, and successfully reinforce the entire area.]

Ji Xinghe thought about it. It seemed the island's daily output wouldn't increase until its Prosperity reached 50.

Reinforcing one square meter of foundation gave one point of Prosperity.

Buildings, special furnishings, planting... all of these could increase Prosperity.

She remembered that she still had Black Earth and seeds in her backpack. She'd take them out and plant them later.

[Congratulations, Player 001, on completing the first Level 2 island achievement in the entire server. Rewards: Achievement Point ×5, Raffle Ticket ×5, Free Attribute Point ×5.]

[Player 001, would you like to make an announcement? Announcing it will grant double rewards.]

"Announce it! Make the announcement!"

Ji Xinghe was a little excited. This was her first reward for being first across the entire server, and the reward was incredibly generous...

But... didn't that mean someone else had been ahead of her in getting the first kill and upgrading their Shelter?

Why hadn't she heard any server-wide announcement earlier? Had they chosen not to announce their achievements, or was there some other reason...

"No matter what, I need to pick up the pace."

Before anyone else reached Level 2 and the Shelter upgrade requirements became a hurdle, she needed to hurry and upgrade her Shelter to Level 2.

[Server-Wide Announcement: Congratulations, Player 001, on completing the first Level 2 island achievement in the entire server. Rewards: Achievement Point ×5, Raffle Ticket ×5, Free Attribute Point ×5.]

Next, she spent Thatch ×50, Wood ×50, Stone ×20, and 10 Wow Coins to upgrade her Shelter to Level 2.

She was out of soil and Foundation Stones, and her Prosperity was still a little short. Otherwise, she would've upgraded her island to Level 3 right away...

[Congratulations, Player 001, on completing the first Level 2 Shelter construction achievement in the entire server. Rewards: Achievement Point ×5, Raffle Ticket ×5, Free Attribute Point ×5.]

[Server-Wide Announcement: Congratulations, Player 001, on completing the first Level 2 Shelter construction achievement in the entire server. Rewards: Achievement Point ×5, Raffle Ticket ×5, Free Attribute Point ×5.]

After all the announcements, her total rewards came to Achievement Point +23, Lottery Ticket +23, and Free Attribute Point +23...

She'd never been this well-off in her life...

Those were Free Attribute Points! In her previous life, after working herself to the bone for a month, her highest attribute had only reached thirty points, and that was because she'd focused on some attributes at the expense of others.

She'd only just entered the game, and she was already rich! ?·??·??*.

By then, the chat lobby had already exploded...
