Global Online Survival Chapter 24
Advertisement
Not far out from the ship, several fins like knives broke the surface of the water and surrounded the ship.
It was the same sharks that had besieged the raft a few days ago, but now Ye Jun wasn't worried.
The raft had turned into a big ship, a tremendous improvement; it wasn't something a few sharks could destroy.
The sharks swam around the merchant ship a few times, with no way of getting a bite.
The sharks, seeing nothing to be gained, surprisingly targeted the electric ray at the stern of the ship.
After dismantling the raft, Ye Jun bolted the electric ray to the stern of the boat, and he never expected that the sharks would see it as food.
However…
This dish wasn't that easy to eat.
A great white shark lunged menacingly at the electric ray with its maws wide open.
As a result, just as it approached, there was a flash of electricity.
The great white shark trembled so much that it turned right over on its belly and drifted out to sea, stunned.
This electric ray had become a level-four boss after Ye Jun fed it the past few days. If it were a level five boss, these normal level five sharks would probably be immediately electrocuted to death.
The other sharks panicked and tried to flee.
But would Ye Jun let them off easily?
"You guys forced me to almost shipwreck the other day, and now the tides have turned."
Ye Jun laughed out loud.
These sharks were no longer a threat at all in Ye Jun's eyes, but had instead turned into EXP.
Ye Jun mounted an arrow and drew his bow.
The bow and arrows in his hands were his construction, with arrows with barbs like fish hooks that were hard to break free once they were lodged inside the flesh, and nylon strings at the end of the arrow.
Shoo…
Within such a short distance, Ye Jun had a hundred percent accuracy.
The +10% sharpness arrow easily broke through the shark's skin, piercing deep into the flesh.
The shark was hurt and fled frantically.
However, the barbs on the arrows worked wonders, hooking into the flesh and blood and making it difficult to break free.

And the nylon rope at the end of the arrow was from the parachute. It was extremely tensile, and Ye Jun had bolted the other end to the deck, making it unbreakable.
The shark struggled, its tail slapping the water, sending up a burst of water.
Ye Jun ignored it, drew his bow, and shot at another shark.
Shoo, shoo, shoo…
Three more arrows in a row and three more sharks were hit, leaving only one shark to see the desperate situation before it sank into the sea to escape.
Four arrowed sharks rolled and struggled in the sea.
The king of the sea was pulled by the ropes, and its maws full of fangs couldn't be put to use, instead its huge body became a living target.
Ye Jun simply stood on the deck, drew his bow, and shot arrow after arrow.
Soon the blood stained the water red.
"Ding! Killed a shark (level 5) +100 EXP."
"Ding! Killed a shark (level 5) +100 EXP."
"Ding! Killed a shark (level 5) +100 EXP."
"Ding! Killed a shark (level 5) +100 EXP. Congratulations, +1 Hunter Level, +10 Endurance, +10 Speed, +50 Strength."
The last time he killed a great white shark he went straight up a level, but now it took four sharks to go up a level. It was as expected that the higher the level, the more EXP was needed.
Ye Jun then came to the stern of the ship. The great white shark that had been electrocuted had awakened but still had little to no strength, turning up its belly and flicking its tail slightly in the sea, provoking the electric ray to give it another shot.
Ye Jun was worried that this guy would be electrocuted by the electric ray, causing him to lose EXP.
He ended the shark's life with a few more arrows.
"Ding! Killed a shark (level 5) +50 EXP."
As expected, the EXP gained decreased again. He was now level five, and killing level five wild monsters had half the EXP than before. He had to kill monsters above his level to gain more EXP.

Ye Jun opened the attribute panel.
Player Ye Jun (Death Mode).
Titles Obtained:
Beginner Flame Controller. Fire Energy Level: 3 (20/300)
Flame Affinity: 10.
Beginner Hunter.
Hunter Level: 5 (52/500)
Beginner Lightning Controller. Lightning Level: 1 (27/100)
Lightning Affinity: 10.
Skill: Fireball
Skill: Palm Thunder
Endurance: 120, Speed: 120, Strength: 352.
His speed had become 12 meters per second, and his strength had reached 352kg.
Despite being the same level, his physical qualities were still a far cry from that of a wild monster, not to mention his hunting skills.
Take a human and a feline, a cat with the same level of strength and size of a human, the latter could definitely hunt and kill the former easily.
The most powerful aspects about humans was their intelligence and knowing how to use tools, not to mention, the existence of the Mage class.
Their survival relied on intelligence, not brute force.
Ye Jun spent quite a bit of effort to haul five sharks onto the deck and dismember them one by one.
The shark's blood was all packed in barrels and used to water the Strange Blood Tree.
The fins were also cut off and left on the deck to dry. This was a prized good.
The meat was all put up for trade.
"Just hunted five sharks, fish meat for 5 copper coins per catty, or 1 cubic meter of wood per catty. Can also be exchanged for various supplies such as wild greens, fruits, nuts, ores, and so on. Those with rare items can negotiate."
As soon as the post was made, it immediately caused a stir on the trading channel.
"Almighty Ye hunted sharks again. Those are level five great white sharks, and he took out 5 of them at once! Oh my god, what level is Almighty Ye now!"
"Almighty Ye is living such a fulfilling life even in Death Mode. So envious!"
"Don't be envious. Do you see any other Death Mode players showing up? They're most likely all dead. There's only one Almighty Ye, the God of Survival, no doubt about that!"
"Compared to Almighty Ye, I'm a piece of trash, even a wild dog dares to chase me away…"
"I have a hunch that sooner or later if this game allows you to keep leveling up, Almighty Ye will really become a god!"
"Cozy up to Almighty Ye in advance, and get a spot before he becomes god!"
There were gasps of surprise all over the game world, and with countless people gasping in cold air, it made a big contribution to the greenhouse effect of the world.
Right now, the vast majority of players were just getting used to the environment, and those that hadn't had already been eliminated in these past ten days.
The vast majority of the remaining players were also just struggling to survive, with those who were doing slightly better only reaching level one and not many reaching level two.
Master Bear, who was tens of thousands of miles away, laughed bitterly when he heard the news.
He had only killed a level five giant alligator with Ye Jun's help to reach level four. He had felt a bit complacent.
But now…
Ye Jun hunted so many level-five great white sharks, as if he was eating and drinking water.
The difference was maddening!
"It seems that I cannot target the ordinary beasts and must go and hunt those large animals…" Master Bear made up his mind.
The other well-known character, Master Ed, was lying on a hammock made of vines, as if he was Ge You1. He was also a level three Hunter now, but he wasn't keen on leveling. For him, it was the process of surviving that he enjoyed, not leveling up.
About these people's thoughts, Ye Jun didn't know and wouldn't care if he knew.
At this moment, after a long day's toil, he lay on top of his new bed in the cabin and went beautifully into a dream.
The life-like doll, on the other hand, seemed to be a real person sitting not far away.

Glitched! Uplift Arc
[Winner of the April 22 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] In 2202 the System reached Earth. Thankfully it had learnt from previous uplifts and implemented an introductory arc to acclimatise the new participants rather than chucking them in the deep end. The previous practice of just dumping unsuspecting beings into a System designed for the growth of the multiverse had led to catastrophic and sub-optimal results. The return on investment was abysmal. That old trope was so over-cooked - after nearly extinguishing itself through negative returns new policy was required. That was 356 trillion local years back. Now over 5600 successful uplifts had joined the ranks of the multiverse. But the System was always learning, always growing. Still there were glitches. Mostly minor. Mere irritants really. Sometimes even they were catalysts, triggering a fresh expansion. Soon the System would understand why. Our Earth was 7912th. - Ascend - Battle - Challenge - Dominate - Expand - Gro... - Glor... - Where’s the eff word? - Glitch... File corrupted. ---END SYN---

The Weaver's Burden (HIATUS)
Weavers... this lot has been synonymous with freaks at best, and devil worshipers at worst, since they were first found. Thankfully, they make up a negligible number of people, but they can still be incredibly dangerous. Oftentimes, they wind up killing themselves or others when their ability to perform magic begins to manifest, acting as a sort of natural culling process for weavers. However, this was well before the Republic of Sidia realized that the ability to manipulate reality can be reigned in, controlled. So if you had the chance to turn something dangerous into a weapon, why wouldn't you? This is what fate awaits a young man named Emmet. After his weaving manifests and blood is on his hands, he is given a choice: the gallows, or the Esphell Monastery. What awaits Emmet at the monastery? What is this magic, and how can he control it? What happens to weaver's once they are properly trained? And most importantly, will he survive long enough to have these questions answered?
