Ahhhhh, high-altitude survival!

The "Potato Mine" is a plant in the first level of the Plants vs. Zombies encyclopedia that can only be used once and requires 25 energy points to retrieve. Lin Yue had always been afraid that the mine's power was too great and might destroy her platform, so she had never used it before.

The landmine had a round, round head, and its metal rod gleamed on top. Lin Yue first checked the system's identification of it as a "potato landmine."

[“Potato Mine” (Epic): A concealed attack weapon that can be planted at predetermined locations to deliver a surprise attack on enemies entering its trigger range. It has a 3-meter blast radius and deals 1800 blast damage upon triggering. Each potato mine can be used once and is automatically destroyed after use.]

!!!

It was actually an epic-level weapon! Lin Yue couldn't help but widen her eyes in disbelief.

But when she saw the damage value of 1800 points, she understood. This attack power was indeed a bit too exaggerated; landmines are indeed deadly weapons no matter where they are.

However, the 1800 points of explosive damage made Lin Yue somewhat worried. Would that power shatter the box completely? Or worse, would it destroy the entire stone house? What if the island was blasted into a hole…?

A moment of hesitation flashed through Lin Yue's mind, but soon, when she caught sight of the pair of drooping wings behind her, her heart suddenly calmed down.

This is a survival game, and all sorts of threats are everywhere. Previously, a first-tier Skylark King almost put herself in a life-or-death situation. If she doesn't find a way to improve her strength, then the tree she's clinging to might become a second floating island.

Besides, she has no other choice now; the worst outcome is simply not getting the box.

Since that was the case, Lin Yue no longer hesitated. She took out a potato mine from her backpack, placed it on the seemingly ordinary box, thought for a moment, then packed up all the beds, tables, and chairs in the house before retreating far away.

The explosion radius was 3 meters, but Lin Yue retreated more than 10 meters before taking out the Peashooter.

Target setting: Potato mine.

emission!

A second later, with a deafening roar, the stone house in front of her shook violently. The doors and windows were blown off by the immense impact, and sand and dirt from outside were scattered everywhere, creating a small sandstorm that completely obscured Lin Yue's vision.

Lin Yue covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve, her eyes fixed on the direction of the stone house. She could feel her heart racing as she nervously waited for the dust to slowly settle. Finally, as the dust gradually settled, she saw that the stone house was still standing, and her heart immediately relaxed.

She approached cautiously, and as soon as she entered the room, her eyes were fixed on the box.

Great! The box is still there! It wasn't blown to smithereens.

Lin Yue slowly approached the box and found it covered with a thick layer of dust and debris from a potato mine explosion. She gently moved it aside with a shovel, and then noticed a deep crack in the center of the top of the box, its cross-section gleaming with a metallic sheen.

Lin Yue cautiously approached the gap with her hand, but before she even reached it, she withdrew it due to the scorching heat.

After waiting a few more minutes, Lin Yue felt that the box seemed to have cooled down completely before reaching out again.

This time, she successfully pried open the top of the box, and the system notification sounded immediately:

[Open the Silver Treasure Chest to obtain Ice Basin Blueprint*1, Summoning Order*1, Flame-Avoiding Stone*8, and Space Stone*5.]

[Should we collect data?]

"Phew..." Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes filled with undisguised excitement. "Collect."

[Collection successful. Received 4 silver ingots and 1 experience point.]

Just then, for some reason, Lin Yue suddenly felt a strange sense of unease, which grew stronger as time went by. Ignoring the fact that it was still some time before nightfall, she immediately flapped her wings and sped off towards the edge of the island at top speed.

Shortly after Lin Yue left the floating island, she suddenly heard a loud "whooshing" sound behind her, like a howling wind, loud and persistent. Interspersed within this sound were some indistinct roars, which sent chills down her spine.

Lin Yue couldn't help but look back, and was surprised to find that the floating island, which had been stationary in the air, had begun to move slowly, faster and faster...

Soon, the brightly colored hot air balloon disappeared from her sight, as if it had never existed.

A wave of fear washed over Lin Yue, and she was once again thankful that she hadn't hesitated. Judging by the speed of the floating island, if she were still on it, she feared she would have a very difficult time finding her way back to her platform.

Once it gets dark, the consequences become unpredictable.

Shortly after returning to the platform, the third airdrop landed. In just two days, her platform had accumulated nearly 40 crates. Looking at the overflowing crates and thinking about her gains over the past two days, Lin Yue felt happy again.

She first moved the boxes aside one by one and stacked them neatly, then opened her backpack and took out the spoils from the floating island.

First, Lin Yue sorted through the newly acquired tools and packed them into the same box as yesterday's. As for the two exquisite daggers, she took them out separately and put them in her backpack so she could equip them whenever needed.

Equipping an excellent-grade dagger increases strength by 10 points. If two daggers are stacked, Lin Yue's strength can reach 24 points, which is higher than the Pea Shooter and the limited-use Magpie Feather Dart.

After putting away all the tools and materials, the main event is about to begin.

Lin Yue took out the ice basin blueprints, the summons, and the space stone and examined them one by one.

[Summoning Order (Unusable): Can summon 1 companion to form a team, increasing exploration efficiency and survival chances. Disappears after use.]

[Space Stone: A mysterious stone with spatial power, capable of increasing backpack storage space. Cannot be crafted.]

【冰盆（改良版）：冷藏工具之一，能够保存食物并具有一定的冷却降温效果，需要获得图纸并通过工作台解锁制作。所需材料为硝石*1（现有132）、铁块*1（现有3）、矿泉水*1（现有22）。是否制作？】

Wow, these are truly extraordinary items from a silver treasure chest.

The summons was unusable, but Lin Yue didn't dwell on it. After putting it away, she first used a space stone to expand her backpack to 15 slots. Then, she focused all her attention on the improved ice basin blueprint.
