Coming in front of the big tree, Bick took out the universal tool hammer.

With a thought, the universal tool hammer in his hand turned into an axe. Holding the axe tightly, Bick hacked at the trunk of the big tree with all his strength.

Bang! Bang! Bang…

With a powerful chop, the big tree in front of Bick collapsed with a bang. However, the big tree actually turned into five pieces of wood when it fell to the ground.

Bick picked up the wood and broke it into pieces, obtaining ten pieces of wood.

“So easy?”

Although Bick had never cut down a tree before, he knew that it would take at least half an hour to hew a tree.

However, his axe only needed less than a minute to cut a tree into pieces.

Of course, his efficiency should be faster than other players. If he didn’t use the universal tool hammer, but an ordinary axe to chop the tree, the time would be at least doubled.

After stuffing the wooden boards into his backpack, Bick continued to walk forward. The grass balls and big trees on the road were all wiped out by him.

In a short while, he had collected 30 wooden boards and 20 pieces of hay.

As he continued walking forward, a huge rock appeared in front of Bick.

This rock was embedded in the soil, and its exposed parts were grayish-white.

“Universal tool hammer, turn into a pickaxe!”

With a thought, the axe in Bick’s hand turned into a pickaxe. He swung the pickaxe and began to mine the rock.

Bang! Bang! Bang…

Similarly, the huge rock in front of him turned into five pieces of rock in about a dozen hits.

“Rocks were found. Will the small-scale oven be far away?”

After stuffing the five stones into his backpack, Bick decided to stop and rest for a while.

He found a clean place to sit down. He took out the plastic jar from his backpack and gulped down water.

He had sweated a lot after working hard just now. He was very uncomfortable, but after drinking a few mouthfuls of fresh water, he was instantly much more refreshed.

He reckoned that in this game world, only he could drink fresh water so unbridled.

After relieving his thirst, Bick stuffed the plastic jar back into his backpack and prepared to continue working. At this moment, he suddenly discovered a rock in front of him that was actually shining with a metallic luster.

“Eh? This rock is a little different from the previous one!”

Bick took two quick steps forward and without saying a word, he raised his pickaxe and smashed it at the rock.

Bang bang bang…

Bang bang bang…

Bick smashed it more than a dozen times, but this rock was still safe and sound.

He suddenly had a guess in his heart…

“Is there a rare material inside this rock?”

Thinking of this, he raised his pickaxe and struck again.

Bang bang bang…

Crash!

Suddenly, the rock scattered into a pile of rocks. Bick took a closer look and found that one of the five rocks was different from ordinary rocks. It was shining with a faint metallic luster.

Picking up the rock, Bick saw the explanation of the item.

[Metal ore]

[Explanation: It can be used to smelt metal. It is a rare resource.]

“Smelt metal?”

Bick was slightly stunned. He suddenly realized that he had obtained a treasure.

With the metal ore, he should be able to smelt metal ingots. With the metal ingots, wouldn’t he be able to make an anchor!

Thinking of this, Bick put the metal ore into his backpack and sped up the search for resources.

If other players came here at this time, wouldn’t he have to share the resources here?

Therefore, he had to collect all the resources on the mountain as soon as possible!

Thinking of this, Bick sped up a lot.

In less than an hour, he had already harvested resources for half of the island.

In front of him was another shining rock.

Bick was attracted by a green plant beside the rock when he was just about to pick up the rock.

It was a short plant with a few red fruits on it.

“Strawberries?”

Bick cried out in surprise. In this survival game, fruits were very important!

He carefully picked the strawberries, but he was not in a hurry to eat them. Instead, he stuffed the precious fruits into his wooden backpack.

Then, he turned the universal tool hammer into a shovel and began to dig carefully.

After digging a little, a strawberry seedling appeared in his hand.

“Awesome!”

Bick put it into his backpack. He planned to build a miniature farm next and plant the strawberries in it.

That’s right!

Soil!

Bick picked up the shovel and dug on the ground again. He really got a portion of soil!

Soil was a rare resource in the ocean. Bick decided to collect more. Those couldn’t be used could be sold!

Then, he dug for a while, and the soil in his backpack turned from one portion to twenty portions.

When he felt that the amount was enough, Bick stopped and continued to move toward the top of the mountain.

The supplies entered his backpack bit by bit, and the sky gradually darkened. Fortunately, Bick had already plundered all the resources in the entire island before it got dark!

Sitting on the top of the bare island, Bick drank a mouthful of fresh water from the plastic jar and prepared to count his harvest today.

He checked his backpack.

Bick looked at the supplies with satisfaction.

[Backpack: Wooden board x50, wooden board X30, hay x50, hay x10, stone x35, metal ore x3, strawberries, strawberry seedling, plastic jar. ]

“What a bountiful harvest!”

Bick put away his wooden backpack, called out to Einstein who was still patrolling the island, and prepared to go down the mountain.

However, as he walked, Bick suddenly saw something below the island. There seemed to be a glimmer of light.

“Strange! Could it be there are resources underwater?”

Bick was tempted and wanted to go down and take a look.

However, it was already very late. If he went down now, he might not be able to see what resources were underwater. It would be better to return to the raft first and wait until the next morning to check the resources underwater.

Of course, he did not plan to untie the straw rope that tied the raft that night.

“Hehe, I’ll cut you down after I leave!”

Looking at the only big tree on the entire island, Bick revealed a sinister smile.

Suddenly, Einstein nervously called out a few times.

“Ou ou! Ou ou ou!”

Bick was slightly stunned. “What’s wrong? My competent first mate, are you hungry and want to eat something?”

“Ou ou! Ou ou ou!”

Einstein’s call became even more urgent, and he shook his head vigorously.

At this moment, Bick heard the sound of water splashing around. He looked in the direction of the sound and was instantly stunned!

“Shark!”

Bick was a little stunned because the shark he saw this time was obviously bigger. Its huge tail fin was actually almost half the height of a human.

Bick quickly grabbed the metal spear and got ready for battle.

But this spear… Could it really deal with a big shark?
