Chapter 194: Don’t Be Afraid, I’m Here

There was nothing on the island except stones, sand, and soil. It was a deserted island.

Later, Huanhuan realized that not only was the land barren, but there was only night without day. The sky was always filled with stars. There was no change in day and night.

It would be strange if plants could survive here since they could not photosynthesize!

Fortunately, there was a lot of food in Huanhuan’s interspatial ring. She did not have to worry about starving to death.

What was more worrying now was how to solve the problem of drinking water.

The salt content of seawater was too high. The more one drank, the thirstier they would become. There was everything in the interspatial ring but no drinking water.

It was mainly because Huanhuan had never expected that she would one day be reduced to a state where she did not even have water to drink.

She had miscalculated. If she had the chance to go back in the future, she would definitely stuff a few large barrels of drinkable water into her space!

Without fresh water, she had to make it herself.

Huanhuan first piled a small stove with stones. She took some wood from her space and stuffed it into the small stove. After lighting it, she placed the pot filled with seawater on it and covered it with several layers of snow silk.

After the water boiled, steam continued to rise through the snow silk.

It wasn’t long before the snow silk was soaked.

Huanhuan quickly took the snow silk and wrung it dry. She squeezed water dripped into a cup, and soon, there was half a cup of fresh water.

Although this method was relatively stupid, it was fortunately simple and easier to implement.

She repeated this several times before Huanhuan finally collected a full water pouch.

In order to save water, Huanhuan relied on eating fruits to relieve her thirst most of the time. She only drank a cup of water every day to maintain her basic needs.

After her survival was guaranteed, Huanhuan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

She used the ring space to send a message to Bai Di and the others, explaining her current situation.

Bai Di wrote back to her quickly, saying that they would come to her rescue soon.

To be honest, Huanhuan did not have much hope for this.

There was nothing on the island except her. Not even a fly could be found, let alone a person. The island was surrounded by the endless sea. No ships passed by, and there was nothing to use as a reference.

Even the system indicated that the location was unknown and could not be determined.

The chances of Bai Di and the others finding this place were slim.

However, Huanhuan did not fall into despair because of this. She got 100 mutated bamboo seeds from the Crystal Mall and planted them all in the soil.

In fact, this place was not suitable for the growth of bamboo. However, for some reason, perhaps because they were mutated or perhaps because Huanhuan had been taking care of them, the bamboo grew especially fast.

As there were no changes in day and night, it was impossible to tell how many days had passed. In any case, not long after, the bamboo grew to the height of Huanhuan’s waist.

Huanhuan was very happy. At this rate, it wouldn’t take long for the bamboo to grow.

With bamboo, she could make bamboo rafts.

It was basically impossible to use a bamboo raft to cross the sea, but at the very least, she could expand her exploration area and find out what was going on around her. It would be beneficial to her safety.

With nothing to do, Huanhuan chatted with the system.

“Didn’t you say that I have to die once to awaken the Divine Wood seed? Previously, I was almost killed by that big jellyfish. Why did you save me? If you had let me die, I might have been able to take the opportunity to awaken the Divine Wood seed.”

System 438 explained seriously, “If you had died there just now, your body would have immediately turned to ashes. At that time, not to mention awakening the Divine Wood seed, it would be a very difficult problem to even revive you.”

Huanhuan’s heart trembled. “How terrifying!”

“Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

At this moment, Huanhuan immediately had a better impression of the system.

Touched, she asked, “Why are you being so nice to me?”

“Because I love you.”

Huanhuan was shocked.

System: “Yes, it’s fatherly love.”

Huanhuan: “…”

She resisted the urge to punch it and forcefully changed the topic. “You teleported me here. Logically speaking, you should know where this is, right?”

System 438 was innocent. “When the system makes a safe transfer, it usually automatically chooses the nearest safe place to transfer. However, there was an accident during the transfer this time. The transfer location seems to be a little off the target.”

Huanhuan pointed at the vast sea behind her. “You think this is just a little off?”

She emphasized the words ‘a little.’

“Ahem, the system is debugging it. I promise this won’t happen again.”

The corners of Huanhuan’s mouth twitched. “It’s better not to make such promises. I don’t want another dangerous situation where I need to be safely transferred by the system.”

While the two of them were talking nonsense, something black was washed onto the beach by the sea.

After Huanhuan realized it, she quickly ran over and realized that it was a handsome young boy on his last breath!

This was the first time Huanhuan had seen a living creature in so many days!

She was very excited. She hurriedly dragged the boy to a clean place, lit a fire, and helped him dry his clothes and hair.

After the seawater on his body dried, there was a lot of white salt left. Huanhuan helped him wipe it carefully.

His body was very thin, and his skin was so fair that it was almost transparent. His wrists were so slender that they seemed like they would break with a little force. His short gray hair was somewhat naturally curly, and his facial features were exquisite and beautiful. He looked like an expensive porcelain doll.

It was unknown how long he had been floating at sea. His body was severely dehydrated, and his lips were dry and cracked.

Huanhuan carefully fed him a few mouthfuls of fresh water.

The boy finally looked a little better.

Fortunately, other than dehydration, he didn’t have any other wounds or illnesses. His life shouldn’t be in danger.

Huanhuan took out a red and big sweet fruit and chatted with the system while eating.

“Why do you think this child is on this island?”

The system said, “I don’t know.”

“I guess he might have gone out on a boat with his family. Unfortunately, he was shipwrecked on the way. The boat was overturned by the sea. He fell into the sea and was separated from his family. Then, by chance, the waves washed him to this island… Hmm, what do you think of my theory? Is it reasonable?”

Instead of answering, the system asked, “Are the sweet fruits delicious?”

Huanhuan said as she ate, “They’re delicious! They’re sweet! Do you want to eat one?”

“…It’s alright.”

Huanhuan slapped her forehead and said with a cheeky smile, “I almost forgot that you’re a system and can’t eat. How pitiful. You can only look but can’t eat. My heart aches for you.”

While they were chatting, the boy quietly opened his eyes and woke up.
