Ahhhhh, high-altitude survival!

Jinxuan watched Lin Yue's every move with great interest. When the food processor stopped and turned on the green light, she even curiously leaned over to find out what was going on.

Lin Yue opened the drawer under the food processor, took out a wooden bowl, filled it with steaming soup, and handed it to Jin Xuan: "Don't drink juice anymore, try this for a change."

Jinxuan was indeed obedient; she immediately put down the cup in her hand and reached out to take the wooden bowl.

Seeing this, Lin Yue stepped aside and said, "This soup is a bit hot, so don't spill it. I'll hold it for you, and you can drink it slowly."

Jinxuan glanced at her, and then, taking her hand, slowly began to drink.

Lin Yue held the bowl steadily with one hand, while gently placing the other hand on Jin Xuan's wrist, pretending to check her pulse. In reality, her eyes were fixed on the health bar. The moment Jin Xuan swallowed the soup, her health bar surged by 10 points, but quickly began to deplete again, drop by drop.

Jinxuan finished half a bowl of soup, and her health points were restored to 27. She gently pushed the bowl away, indicating that she didn't want any more.

"Have some more!" Lin Yue said, sounding a little anxious. "Or how about a few pieces of meat? Or a bean?"

She remembered Liang Dong mentioning that 30 stamina points was a critical point. Once that value was exceeded, the body's sensations and condition would change significantly. Lin Yue wanted to try and see if Jin Xuan's health points could recover to 30; perhaps then something would change.

Seeing Lin Yue's concerned expression, Jin Xuan forced herself to drink another sip of soup. After swallowing, she waved her hand firmly: "I really can't drink anymore, I'll throw up if I drink any more."

With just that one sip of soup, her health points jumped up again. Even after deducting the few points she lost naturally while speaking, her health points had reached 31.

Unfortunately, there was no real change compared to before. The "near death" warning message remained, and the health points, just like before, quickly began to slowly decrease again.

Lin Yue was a little disappointed, but Jin Xuan remained quite calm and even comforted her, saying, "Your cooking is pretty good. After drinking it, I felt much warmer."

"Squeak..." Just then, the little mouse ran back, carrying a twig in its mouth. On the twig hung three crystal-clear white fruits, which shimmered enticingly in the sunlight.

It seemed to have heard Jin Xuan's words, its eyes sparkling with joy. It put down the branch and bowed several times to Lin Yue, as if to express its gratitude.

Although Lin Yue had been practically held captive here by the little mouse, seeing its current state, she couldn't muster any anger. Seeing that Jin Xuan clearly wasn't going to drink the soup, she placed the wooden bowl she was holding in front of the little mouse on the ground.

As soon as the little mouse smelled the familiar aroma, it excitedly jumped into the bowl and began to eat with relish.

Jinxuan looked at the branches and fruits that the little mouse had carefully placed aside, and gestured to Lin Yue with her chin: "Since I ate your food, these fruits are my return gift."

This fruit was clearly no ordinary thing. A hint of joy flashed in Lin Yue's eyes. Without any hesitation, she walked over and put it away.

She was originally sent directly from the Plants vs. Zombies game, but when Lin Yue, who was trying to reach for the apples, saw this branch, her eyes lit up, she let out an excited scream, and then, like a nimble little monkey, she quickly slid down the apple tree.

She roughly grabbed the branch and shoved it straight into the ground without hesitation. Then, she reached out her little hand, grabbed one of the fruits, and stuffed it into her mouth without a word.

Lin Yue tried to stop them, but it was too late. She could only quickly use her mental energy to roll out the remaining two white fruits.

She thought that Xiao Linyue might throw a tantrum again, but then she saw the little guy who had just swallowed the fruit suddenly become dizzy, swaying and spinning around several times before sitting heavily on the soft grass. He then leaned back and fell fast asleep on the grass without any regard for his image.

Ok?

Lin Yue's eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly checked the attributes of the fruit in her backpack.

【Drunken Immortal Fruit (Rare): A rare spiritual fruit, carefully fermented and brewed over a long period of time, containing natural sweetness and mellow aroma. It is white in color, with a rich fruity fragrance and a full-bodied taste, and can be used to brew wine. Upon first consumption, Strength +5, Defense +5, Intelligence -2.】

It can actually increase two attributes!

Thinking of the one that Lin Yue had removed, Lin Yue felt heartbroken!

If we used this to brew wine, wouldn't we be able to drink it for a very long time?!

But then I thought, it seems more worthwhile to just eat this good stuff directly.

Right now, she's in the middle of a battle on a floating island, where strength and defense are very useful attributes. Intelligence, on the other hand… the reason she used to focus so intently on increasing it was mainly to collect various plants from the Plants vs. Zombies game. Back then, her attribute values ​​were too low, and natural regeneration was too slow, making it difficult to keep up.

However, her plant encyclopedia doesn't currently contain any plants that require exceptionally high spirit levels. The most she has, "Frost Archer," requires 175 points. With apples helping to restore spirit, the previously troublesome problem is no longer such a hindrance.

Therefore, even if you lose two points of intelligence, it's still worth it!

Thinking of this, Lin Yue took out a fruit and promptly stuffed it into her mouth.

She initially thought that Xiaolin Yue was drunk because she was too small and couldn't hold her liquor. She herself had decent stats and was strong and healthy. The fruit looked about the size of a cherry, and she had already drunk snake soup to fill her stomach. At most, she would feel dizzy for a moment, but nothing serious should happen.

The moment the fruit touched my lips, an intensely sweet aroma rushed towards me like a torrent. Taking a light bite, the juice burst forth, sliding down my throat like velvet without any chewing, leaving only a lingering sweetness on my tongue.

A moment later, a rich and mellow aroma of wine slowly rose from her throat. Lin Yue wanted to savor it a little longer, but suddenly her head began to spin violently, and a moment later, everything went black as her consciousness completely vanished into a state of chaos…

When she woke up again, she found herself lying flat on a somewhat old bamboo bed, feeling refreshed and completely free of the hangover headache.
