Chapter 137 - Endless Seas 12 (1/2)

Ch137 – Endless Seas 12

Endless Sea, day three.

The challengers floated on the vast waters and there were no accidents all morning. However, today’s sun was too harsh. From 10 in the morning onward, the sun was like a huge fireball on the sea and the sea temperature was rising. Everyone was going to peel under the strong ultraviolet light.

Usually, everyone could do a good job with sun protection measures. They would wear sun hats and sungla.s.ses or place sunscreen carefully on their cheeks, neck and arms. However, there was no such thing in the world of secret rooms. After one morning under the hot sun, everyone was collectively blackened.

By noon, Xiao Lou’s cheeks and neck were red from the sun. A clear dividing line appeared on his neck. His sun was originally white so it was very obvious after becoming sunburned. His entire face was like a ripe apple.

Shao Qingge was also very uncomfortable and couldn’t help asking, “Old Mo, will the data of the World Weekly secret rooms be cleared?”

In the previous secret rooms, the challengers’ injuries automatically recovered after leaving. The sunburn would also automatically change back. However, this was the first time they were experiencing the World Weekly. Hearing this, everyone looked at Old Mo.

Old Mo smiled bitterly. “If injured in the World Weekly, it will be brought back to the main city. The data isn’t erased.”

Xie Qi couldn’t help spitting out, “The sun is so strong and we will continue to drift at sea for four days. Once we return to the main city, won’t it be like we went to Africa to dig coal?”

Long Sen had a big heart and was very optimistic. “Bronze skin is also good. We look healthy!”

Qu Wanyue looked at everyone with eyes full of worry. “Those who love sunbathing by the sea will still take sun protection measures. It isn’t just a matter of becoming dark. I’m more worried that everyone will get sunburned.”

Xiao Lou nodded. “Yes, now everyone’s skin is just red and dark. If the sun keeps s.h.i.+ning, the skin will severely lack water and become tight. It will even burn and tingle. If this continues, molting and blistering will occur. Please be careful. Don’t use your nails to scratch if you become itchy. There are a lot of bacteria in the nails. If you scratch it at this time, it is likely to cause an infection.”

Xie Qi felt his neck was itchy and just wanted to reach out to scratch it. He heard this and immediately retracted his fingers.

Yu Hanjiang wasn’t afraid of the sun. He often did missions in the hot sun and his skin wasn’t white. It didn’t matter how dark he became. However, the ultraviolet rays at sea were too strong. Seeing Xiao Lou’s red face, Yu Hanjiang was somewhat distressed.

Professor Xiao didn’t have rough skin like him. The professor usually stayed in the office and definitely hadn’t suffered from such a thing. Now that his entire body was exposed to the sun, wouldn’t it be very uncomfortable? Yu Hanjiang looked anxiously at Xiao Lou and suggested, “Do you want to make a sunshade to hang on the boat? It isn’t just the problem of sunburn. I’m afraid that everyone will get sunstroke.”

Xiao Lou carefully thought about it before pulling out the White Silk and Scissors cards.

He cut the white silk into several pieces, followed by drawing several rings and cutting them into iron wires. He sewed the cloth strips together with the metal wires. Once all the cloth strips were connected, the length and width could cover the entire escape boat.

He also made some wires and bent them into arcs, pa.s.sing them through the front, middle and back of the cloth curtain. Then he fixed the metal wires to both sides of the escape boat, so that the huge cloth curtain could ‘cover’ the entire escape boat.

He made a simple sunshade just like that. The sun shade effect of the white sunshade wasn’t very good and it covered the boat like a funeral…

However, the secret room conditions were limited and they could only fit together like this. Xiao Lou looked at Xie Qi’s big travel bag. “Put the food inside Long Sen’s bag and give that bag for me to use.”

For these two days, they had been eating the food in Xie Qi’s bag. At this time, the bag was mostly empty. Xie Qi heard this and put the remaining mineral water and biscuits into Long Sen’s backpack.

Xiao Lu took the bag and used the scissors to flexibly cut it apart. His selnder fingers moved and in the blink of an eye, there were eight pieces of cloth. Then he measured the size, used the Compa.s.s and drew a circle, bending it. He actually made eight simple sunhats for everyone!

Xiao Lou smiled and gave his hat to everyone. “So you won’t get sunburned.”

His teammates, “……”

Too amazing! Xie Qi put the hat on his head and sighed. “Professor Xiao, what can’t you do? If we go to the wilderness in the future, can you make a wok?”

Shao Qingge’s eyes narrowed and he joked, “Professor Xiao is a must have for travelling. Any girl will probably be very happy to marry you… isn’t that right, Group Leader Yu?”

Yu Hanjiang stared at him coldly. “What do you want me to say? Are you still in the mood to laugh?”

Shao Qingge shrugged. “It is too boring if I don’t joke around. Don’t we have to stay at sea for four days?’

Yu Hanjiang didn’t answer and frowned unhappily.

It wasn’t the first time Shao Qingge joked around. It was unknown why but when Shao Qingge joked about Xiao Lou, Yu Hanjiang inexplicably felt a bit angry. After finding that Xiao Lou didn’t mind, Yu Hanjiang no longer paid attention to Shao Qingge and turned to look into the distance.

The more than 40 escape boats were drifting aimlessly at sea. Soon, they found that Xiao Lou’s boat had made a sunshade for themselves and the eight people were wearing hats made of cloth. Next to them, someone exclaimed, “Oh my G.o.d, the people on that s.h.i.+p are too talented. They made sunhats!”

Someone excitedly said, “My bag is empty. Quickly take out the scissors. Hurry, I’m going to be tanned!”

Thus, everyone followed suit. Some people took out umbrella cards and raised them to block the sun. Others made sunshades out of clothes while someone put boards on top of the escape boat to block the sun. What’s more, the food plastic bags were sewn together to make colourful umbrellas.

One female picked up a loudspeaker and shouted, “I have the Tool Card: Needle Thread. I can help you sew an umbrella. If you need it then come to my boat. It costs 10,000 for one. Bring your plastic bags and make a plastic umbrella!”

Xiao Lou, “…”

There was no shortage of intelligent people in this world. This sister actually started a business of ‘sewing umbrellas’ on the spot.

It was noon and the sun was hanging overhead. Most of the challengers left their escape boats in this area for lunch. The girl with the needle and thread were very popular. People immediately took plastic bags and rags to find the girl so she could help make the sunshade and hats. In a flash, the girl made thousands of gold coins.

Immediately after, another girl shouted, “Does anyone need to use the toilet? We have a temporary toilet with a flus.h.i.+ng device here. The toilet can be used for 50,000 gold coins!”
