Chapter 725: Collecting Materials
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As soon as Shane and Dan left, Melissa stuck to Sharon like a plaster, making Melinda very unhappy.
“Don’t you have legs? Can’t you walk on your own?”
“Sharon has the most stable personality. Do you still want me to pester you?” Melissa retorted. “You can’t give me a sense of security!”
Seeing that Melinda and Melissa were about to quarrel, Sharon quickly said, “Don’t quarrel yet. I’ve watched such variety shows in the past, so I know what to do next. Shane and Dan went to find food. We can’t just sit back and wait for death. Also, Melissa, don’t get too close to me.”
She nodded and immediately took a few steps back, but her eyes were still fixed on Sharon.
Sharon placed her backpack and personal belongings on the empty space, then went nearby to pick up a few dry firewood and built a fire with flint.
“Come and warm yourself by the fire. You just got drenched by the rain. You’ll get sick if you don’t warm yourself by the fire in time.” Sharon called Melinda and Melissa over. Then, she climbed up the tallest tree nearby and looked at the clouds in the distance. She said, “It’ll still rain tonight. We have to find a freshwater source as soon as possible. There’s a quagmire nearby, but there seems to be a sea in the distance.”
“I didn’t expect this place to be near the sea.” Melinda was a little surprised.
“Well, so we’ll either find the water-brewing tools as soon as possible, or we’ll pick some coconuts and come back.”
Before they found the tools to boil water, they still had to focus on finding coconut juice and could not drink a lot of water they brought.
Melinda stuck her head out and asked, “Sharon, why did you say that you were going to the beach to find water-brewing tools? Do they have them by the beach?”
“Yes,” Sharon said with certainty.
In fact, it also depended on luck. As long as it was the sea, there would more or less be marine trash.
It sounded like marine trash. To people who lived in the wilderness, it was a rather precious existence. They could find many useful things from it.
Sharon asked Melinda and Melissa if they were tired. If they were tired, the two of them would rest together while she went to the beach alone.
Melinda’s answer was naturally that she wasn’t tired. In fact, she really wasn’t tired, and she was worried about Sharon going to the beach alone.
Melissa did not dare to stay here alone, so she said, “I’ll go with you.”
“Okay.” Sharon built the bonfire with rocks to prevent it from the fire from disappearing.
Melinda and Melissa arrived at the beach under Sharon’s lead. Fortunately, it wasn’t far from their residence. As long as they found what they wanted, they could rush back before dark.
Melissa was like an innocent little girl, but in Melinda’s words, she was retarded.
“Oh my god, it’s a starfish!”
“That shell is so beautiful!”
Melissa was running on the waves excitedly, but Sharon and Melinda weren’t in the mood to admire anything else. They seriously searched along the coastline for something useful.
This scene was interpreted differently in the eyes of the netizens.
[How does Sharon know so much? Even if she’d seen similar shows before, this is her first time doing it, right? How can she do it so methodically?]
[She really looks like a safe and reliable big sister! Oh my god, I’m about to fall in love with Sharon!]
[In comparison, this Melissa is really brainless. Everyone is busy trying to survive. Is she just going to do nothing?]
Melissa was having fun alone, while Sharon and Melinda were searching for treasures in the cracks of the reef.
Sharon found an old fishing net. Although it wasn’t big, it was enough to make a net to catch fish.
Melinda was not weak either. She caught a very large octopus which waved its lively claws. She raised the octopus high and cheered. “Let’s eat seafood tonight!”
Sharon turned around and smiled at Melinda. “Melinda, impressive!”
They also harvested conchs and some shellfish. Tonight’s dinner would be quite sumptuous.
They walked for a long time and got further and further away from their residence. They didn’t find anything that could be made into a boiling water container, so Sharon picked two more coconuts.
It was getting late, and the three of them were hungry. Shane and Dan had probably returned, so they could only return to their residence first.
Shane and Dan only found a few fruits, but they didn’t find any other food. Fortunately, Sharon and the others had returned with a full load, so it would at least be better a little better tonight.
As the flames ignited, the sky gradually darkened. Just as Sharon had said, it would rain again tonight.
Sharon placed the largest shell on the fire, which was equivalent to a baking tray. Then, she cut the octopus and placed it on the baking tray.. The fresh and sweet taste seemed to be overflowing from the screen and it headed straight for the netizens!
