"This island has now become Special Class, possibly because of the activity in the Abundant Sea. It has grown many times larger, almost several hundred times the size of Sweet Island as I remember it.
"But the occupation conditions most likely haven't changed." Dara coughed lightly and continued, "The conditions back then were... eliminate over 90% of the carnivorous animals on the island, take over their territories, reach the Forest of Abundance at its core, and kill the Gluttonous Evil Beast occupying the forest. That would allow you to occupy it."
Dara shared what she knew from the past about the conditions for occupying Sweet Island.
Although she had not participated in that operation, she had, after all, been born on Sweet Island, so she knew the island very well.
"Allow me to interrupt..."
Daishi spoke up, interrupting Dara, and everyone turned to look at him.
Daishi, or Shi Lei, looked very different from two months ago. It was as though he had suddenly gone from a young man in his prime to someone middle-aged or older. His temples were graying, and the tactical clothing he had often worn at first had been replaced by a more traditional Tang suit.
He had grown much thinner, his lean cheeks looking as though they had been hewn with blades and axes. There were even a few wrinkles between his brows, but his eyes remained as sharp as knives. Members of the Lost Ones Fleet sat around him, while he occupied the central seat at the very front.
"While exploring the sea, I actually obtained some records about Sweet Island, left behind by past players.
"At the time, I wondered why I hadn't triggered the occupation quest for the island. But after reading them and considering the current situation, everything makes sense."
