National destiny survival: I am weak and rely on luck to fly

Chapter 317 New Friends Are Coming

"Uncle Ren!" Shen Nan felt distressed when he saw the dark circles under his eyes.

"Well, have you had lunch?" Ren Linhe responded, his voice a little hoarse but his tone still gentle.

Shen Nan held the bread he had just taken a bite of, raised his chin, and said softly, "I'm eating it. Have you eaten it?"

"I was just about to eat." Ren Linhe did not ask Shen Nan why he only ate such a simple bread. He knew that the little guy had been working hard to earn points these days, and it must have been very hard for him.

But he couldn't spare the time to cook now, so he said, "After these two days, when the competition is over, I will make you something delicious. What do you want to eat?"

"Okay, I want to eat spicy rabbit head!" Shen Nan's eyes lit up, with a hint of anticipation in his tone.

In the morning, when he was wholesale sea fish to team members, one of the members happened to give him two rabbits, saying that they were from the supply box.

"Okay, I'll do it for you." Ren Linhe smiled and nodded in agreement, a doting smile appearing on his slightly tired face.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and the topic gradually shifted to the gambling competition.

Ren Linhe said in a deep voice: "Because the system did not clearly state whether you must win all three competitions or win two out of three, the current situation is a bit delicate. The time to enter the safe zone for the first competition has ended, and we have already achieved good results in the first competition."

"So after discussing last night, we decided that all contestants except you, apart from the two hours of fixed time at noon to fish for supplies, should focus on hunting the sirens and strive to earn more points and win the second competition. As for the scoring, it will be up to you alone."

It is an open secret in Xia Country that Shen Nan uses fresh fish-flavored pet food to recruit sirens to work fishing and earn points.

So in last night's meeting, we discussed and made this decision.

After hearing what Ren Linhe said, Shen Nan patted his chest without hesitation and said with a firm look in his eyes: "I guarantee to complete the task!"

Seeing Shen Nan's serious and determined look, Ren Linhe's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a relieved smile: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. It doesn't matter whether you can win or not. We have other people working hard. We will definitely win the points ranking. When we win in both events, we will also win the final victory."

Shen Nan promised that he would not put pressure on himself, but he had already secretly decided in his heart that he must win the third competition even if he was alone!

Ren Linhe continued, "The pet food has been given to the old man to collect. He will give it to you later."

The veteran he mentioned is Uncle Jiang in the team, whose nickname is “Rowing without Oars”, and he is just 38 years old this year.

Although his abilities are not particularly outstanding, he is quite smart in business.

He has always been in charge of logistics work with Shen Wansan, including the mobilization of supplies, wholesale of supplies, collection of supplies, and the handover of supplies to other teams. He is responsible for following up and handling all matters.

Knowing that Uncle Jiang would help provide pet food, Shen Nan was relieved and nodded quickly, saying, "Okay, I understand."

After ending the video call, Shen Nan took out the Conch Command from his backpack.

Now, apart from the stable resources obtained in the two hours at noon, the other contestants have shifted their focus to hunting sirens and earning points.

Only he will shoulder the responsibility of earning points.

Not only do you have to fight against the 1000 people of the Bald Eagle team, but you also have to face a doubling card in the opponent's hand.

Looking at the conch shell command in his hand, Shen Nan knew that even with the help of fifty or so sea monsters, he might not be able to win.

When the three leading fifth-level sea monsters returned with their mouths full of sea fish, Shen Nan handed them the pet food and said, "New friends will come to help catch fish later. You can't eat them, or I won't give you any good food."

The "friend" Shen Nan was referring to was naturally the killer whale.

In the Endless Sea, native marine life and sirens have always been natural enemies, and sirens feed on marine life.

If the two meet, with the strength of these three fifth-level sirens, even if more killer whales come, they will probably become the sirens' meal.

In order to ensure the safety of the killer whales, Shen Nan must make things clear with the sirens in advance to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

"Friends? Don't worry, I won't eat your friends!"

"Are there any other monsters coming?"

"The little mermaid's friends are my friends."

Words appeared above the heads of the three sirens at the same time, with a hint of curiosity and assurance in their tone.

Shen Nan breathed a sigh of relief and explained seriously: "It's killer whales. They are not the same species as you."

"Killer whale?!!"

One of the sirens was shocked, and the word "food" appeared directly above the heads of two of the sirens, which surprised Shen Nan.

He quickly waved his hands and said, "They are not food! They are my friends, and they also come to help me catch sea fish. So when you see them, stay away from them and don't scare them, otherwise I won't exchange delicious food with you. Do you hear me?" Shen Nan deliberately raised his voice for the last sentence, and his tone was very serious.

"I heard it, I heard it. Don't eat them, don't scare them, stay away from them."

Under Shen Nan's serious threat, the three fifth-level sirens quickly nodded in agreement, with a hint of flattery in their tone.

Seeing that they were willing to cooperate, Shen Nan showed a satisfied smile on his face. He took out a few bags of fresh fish-flavored pet food from his space backpack and said, "Take these bags and share them among you. They are rewards for you! Remember to take good care of your subordinates and stay away from my killer whale friends. Got it?"

"Got it, got it! We promise to have our brothers and sisters take a detour and not harm the killer whale at all!"

The fifth-level siren, whose body looked like a mantis shrimp, quickly made the assurance, her tone full of seriousness, as if she was afraid that Shen Nan would not believe it.

The other two sirens nodded in agreement and made assurances.

"Yes, yes, we do too. We promise to have our brothers and sisters take a detour and not harm the killer whale! Don't worry, little mermaid!"

Shen Nan nodded with satisfaction, "That's fine, then you guys can get busy."
