Su Yu directly chose to extract the +1 Island Area Fragment.
Looking at the fragment in his hand, Su Yu silently thought, Use. In an instant, his island successfully expanded by another square meter, reaching 142 square meters.
[ Ding! Your item has been successfully traded. Please claim the traded item: 20 milliliters of Strength Attribute Potion. ]
Just as Su Yu used the +1 Island Fragment, someone else bought the supplies he had listed on the Trading Channel.
"Huh, someone really is selling potions." Hearing the trade notification by his ear, Su Yu couldn't help but let out a surprised exclamation.
Honestly, Su Yu hadn't really expected anyone to trade potions. After all, this stuff was the best way to increase one's strength in the early stages!
At this moment, Su Yu realized he'd overlooked something: the other survivors had awakened all sorts of strange and unusual talents.
Meanwhile, the survivor who'd traded a bottle of 20-milliliter Strength Attribute Potion for a few supplies was feeling rather excited.
That bottle of Strength Attribute Potion was completely useless to him. The guy had awakened the [F-Rank Born Strong] talent.
[F-Rank Talent: Born Strong] Talent Description: The owner of this talent is naturally stronger than ordinary survivors. Initial Strength Attribute: 5.
It was precisely because of this talent that the Strength Attribute Potion he'd painstakingly gotten from a Two-Star Wooden Treasure Chest had been utterly useless to him.
Honestly, if there hadn't been a warning label with instructions for drinking it on the bottle, the guy probably would've downed it in one gulp.
As for Su Yu, he hadn't given it much thought. Someone selling potions was only good news for him. Trading ordinary necessities for something that could boost his strength was a fantastic deal.
However, potions mostly came from Two-Star Wooden Treasure Chests, and they were still quite rare for now. So after someone traded him a 20-milliliter bottle of Strength Attribute Potion, no one else made another trade during the time it took Su Yu to drink it and for it to take full effect.
"Nice." Feeling his strength increase slightly once more, Su Yu clenched his fist.
Then Su Yu got up from the Massage Chair and began scanning the island's edge again, wanting to see if the treasure chests beneath the surface had restocked.
[There are many half-star and one-star treasure chests beneath the sea here. Casting a net or fishing is not recommended.] [There are many half-star and unrated Damaged Treasure Chests beneath the sea here. Casting a net or fishing is not recommended.] [A small monster, a Sea Monkey, has been spotted five meters beneath the sea here.]
After scanning the area, Su Yu didn't find any high-star treasure chest fishing spots. Instead, he unexpectedly spotted another Sea Monkey.
"Should I figure out a way to get that thing onto the island and beat it to death? Seeing that thing all the time is such a pain."
Seeing the Insight Talent's notification appear before him, an idea popped into Su Yu's head.
After thinking it over, Su Yu decided to see the next day if he could lure the thing up to the surface during daylight, then kill it outright.
After circling the island without finding a suitable fishing or net-casting spot, Su Yu had no choice but to carry his Fishing Rod toward the Small Wooden Cabin, somewhat dejected.
He put the Fishing Rod inside the Small Wooden Cabin, then stepped outside. Seeing the four Goblins huddled around the fire to keep warm, Su Yu ordered in a low voice, "Tonight, you'll take turns keeping watch in pairs. Understand?"
"Your servant understands." At Su Yu's order, the four Goblins quickly replied.
Su Yu nodded slightly, then casually opened the door of a Toyota and climbed in.
After taking off his cold-weather clothing and turning on the car's heater, Su Yu lay down. Although he wasn't sleepy yet, there wasn't much to do this late at night, so he could only lie there and rest.
He lay there for a while, and before he knew it, he'd fallen asleep. When Su Yu opened his eyes, it was already light outside the car.
"Much better." Su Yu stood up and stretched his limbs, then opened the car door and stepped out.
"Master, there was no unusual activity around the island last night." As soon as Su Yu got out of the car, a Goblin came over and reported on the night's watch.
"Mm. Go into the Wooden Cabin and bring me some breakfast." Su Yu nodded, then waved to tell the Goblin to fetch some food.
After that, Su Yu went straight to the Simple Toilet that had been set up at the edge of the island and relieved himself.
After washing up and eating breakfast, Su Yu picked up his Fishing Rod again and prepared to look for a spot.
[Ding! Please claim today's reward for being on the rankings: Common Bait.]
"Claim." Su Yu naturally wasn't about to pass it up. Twenty portions of Common Bait were worth about as much as one Common Energy Crystal.
[There are traces of Four-Star and Five-Star Wooden Treasure Chests beneath the sea here. Fishing is possible.] [There are traces of a Five-Star Wooden Treasure Chest beneath the sea here. Fishing is recommended.]
After trying several different directions, Su Yu finally found a good fishing spot.
He skillfully cast his line, then sat down to wait. As for the Ranking Treasure Chest from the Island Prosperity Value rankings, he couldn't claim it today; he'd have to wait until tomorrow morning.
[★★★★★ Common Wooden Treasure Chest] Description: Contains one Abandoned Island Smart Navigation Map, showing the location of an uninhabited island less than three nautical miles from here. [Abandoned Island Smart Navigation Map] Description: This smart navigation map records the location of an uninhabited island with an area of 100 square meters. The island has an undamaged Island Heart. Note: An Island Heart can be integrated into an island to increase its area. This Island Heart can increase an island's area by 100 square meters.
"Holy crap." Su Yu couldn't help swearing when he saw the treasure chest's information.
"Three nautical miles is about 5.5 kilometers. This could really work!" After estimating the distance in his head, Su Yu immediately came up with a plan.
But he'd have to wait until he hauled the treasure chest out of the water before he could do anything about it.
With Su Yu's strength and the Insight Talent's guidance, there was naturally no risk of the treasure chest slipping off the line.
So after they struggled against each other for about twenty minutes, Su Yu pulled the Five-Star Wooden Treasure Chest up from beneath the surface.
[Ding! Your Double Happiness talent has activated. You obtained 2 Abandoned Island Smart Navigation Maps.]
At that moment, Su Yu saw two palm-sized objects appear before him, somewhat resembling phone screens.
