After fishing until evening came, Guo Li stretched his body. In the afternoon, he fished up three more black iron treasure chests, two bronze treasure chests, and one silver treasure chest.
The treasure chests that he obtained were all the same. Guo Li was a little disappointed. He had been looking forward to fishing up a gold treasure chest, so he did not feel too good about his haul.
There was still a huge pile of fresh seafood left. There were some sea fishes, a lot of big crabs, and an octopus. These were for the fresh pot of seafood later at night.
Wukong kept gesturing toward Guo Li. It really wanted to eat roasted fish, but Guo Li told it that it would have to wait until night to do so. He had told it to pick some wild fruits in the meantime. After all, Guo Li could not forget the taste of the wild fruits he had eaten earlier.
The setting sun shone through the gaps between the leaves and landed on the sparkling water, creating a picturesque scene of nature. He took out his phone and glanced at the chat channel.
Shennong Herb Connoisseur and a few others sent Guo Li messages. They were all messages asking about how he was doing. After Guo Li replied that everything was fine, he switched his attention to the [World Chat] channel.
At this moment, the [World Chat] channel was still filled with cries of sadness and despair. Everyone was still struggling to survive and find resources, so not having enough to eat or drink was commonplace.
“I can’t do it anymore, brothers. I want to quit. This game is too difficult. Up until now, I have yet to eat a full meal. Every day, I am forced to eat sour fruits to satisfy my hunger. If I eat another one of those fruits I’m afraid I’ll puke.”
“Brother, you should be content. I have already started eating tree bark. If you want to give it a go, peel off the tree bark and place it under the sun to dry. It tastes exactly like how it would in your imagination.”
“I want to drink water. I want to drink clean and delicious fresh water. I’m about to die of thirst.”
“Damn it. Digging for ores is really tiring. I’m as black as coal now.”
“Are there any kind-hearted people around? Please give me something to eat. I’m so hungry that my eyes are seeing stars. I don’t think I can hold on any longer.”
As he browsed through the [World Chat] channel, Guo Li ate delicious wild fruits, drank freshly brewed tea, and leisurely kept fishing. His life was simply too comfortable.
If those novice players who were starving and suffering unspeakable hardship knew about Guo Li’s current situation, they would have slammed their heads against the wall and committed suicide.
This bugger was living comfortably, but every other novice player was teetering on the line between life and death. This world was too unfair! !
While he was looking at the message on the [World Chat] channel with interest, Guo Li suddenly felt a tug on the fishing line. He hurriedly put away his phone and focused on pulling the fishing rod up. He prayed inwardly that the thing he caught this time was a gold treasure chest!
Slowly, the thing at the end of the fishing line slowly rose to the surface of the water. A golden halo rippled in the water, and Guo Li’s heart started beating like crazy!
As the golden halo grew larger and larger, a golden treasure chest rose to the surface. It flickered with a brilliant golden light, making it difficult for people to keep their eyes open.
“It really is a golden treasure chest. I’ve gotten myself a big haul this time!”
Guo Li hurriedly pulled the golden treasure chest ashore. He was afraid that it would be snatched away by something else in the water.
When he got his hands on the treasure chest, a system notification rang out in Guo Li’s mind.
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has caught a golden treasure chest!]
[Note: It’s a golden treasure chest! There is an extraordinary treasure sealed inside. Once you open it, you will be so surprised that you will yell!]
Guo Li could not wait any longer. He rubbed his hands together and caressed the patterns on the golden treasure chest. He lifted the lid bit by bit. The golden light was so dazzling that it made him dizzy.

[Ding! Congratulations! The host has obtained the blueprint for the Islanders’ Hall!]
[Note: The blueprint for the Islanders’ Hall is a very rare blueprint in the game. From now on, not only will your islanders have a place to live, they can also freely choose to change professions!]
Guo Li was stunned by the system’s description. The blueprint for the Islanders’ Hall was a blueprint for a building that would not only house his islanders, but also allow them to change professions!
For example, farmers, herdsmen, fishermen, construction workers, and other owners of basic life occupations could change their professions based on Guo Li’s wants and needs.
As long as Guo Li was willing, his farmers could become herdsmen, fishermen, construction workers, or change their professionto any other basic life occupation.
Moreover, he could also recruit people. Once these people were recruited, he would be able to assign them various occupations depending on the island’s needs.
As for combat professions, this would require a separate blueprint, called the [Military Camp].
“If I can get my hands on another golden treasure chest, I might be able to obtain the [Military Camp] blueprint. When that happens, my island will have plentiful resources, enough manpower to gather those resources, as well as a means of protection. That way, if I encounter any sudden situations, I will be able to deal with them!”
Guo Li muttered to himself and carefully stored the [Islanders’ Hall] Blueprint away, afraid that he would lose it.
“Since it’s not completely dark yet, I’ll continue fishing. I’ll try to catch another golden treasure chest. If I do, I’ll be pleased as punch!”
Guo Li continued to fish. While he managed to catch a few more fish, there were no more treasure chests.
The sky was now almost completely dark. Guo Li was ready to stop fishing. It was not safe to fish at night, so he might as well wait until tomorrow.
At this very moment, he felt a strong tug on the fishing line. Guo Li immediately perked up. The thing he caught this time was exceptionally heavy. It had to be an incredible treasure. Heck, it might even be another golden treasure chest. Would he strike gold a second time?.
Guo Li stood up and pulled the fishing rod back bit by bit. However, an even greater force was pulling Guo Li down bit by bit.
Guo Li very quickly discovered that whatever was trying to pull him into the water was much stronger than he was. He was slowly being drawn closer and closer to the water, and was almost about to fall in.
Two calabash brothers immediately ran behind Guo Li. They pulled him back with all their strength, counteracting the force pulling him into the water.
Guo Li sensed that something was amiss and shouted loudly, “Two more! That thing under water is very big!”
Two more people ran over to Guo Li and started pulling. Finally, the thing underwater was slowly pulled out.
When it actually came out of the water, Guo Li cursed. It was actually a big crocodile. It was biting the hook tightly and pulling at it with all its strength.

“F*ck, there’s actually a crocodile in the water. I was almost pulled into the water by it.”
Guo Li felt a lingering sense of fear. Had it not been for the calabash brothers quick reaction, he would have been pulled into the water just now and probably would have been eaten. Fortunately, the stone fishing rod was extremely tough and sturdy. Any other ordinary fishing rod would have probably been snapped in half.
The crocodile was pulled up and violently thrashed around. Guo Li called out to the calabash brothers, and they each picked up some sort of weapon and started hitting the crocodile.
They would not have been a match for the crocodile in the water but, on land, they held the advantage. Moreover, Guo Li was being protected by the strong calabash brothers. They held sticks and threw stones at the crocodile, beating it into submission.
The crocodile was slowly beaten back. The calabash brothers kept up their assault and, soon, the initially fierce crocodile became terrified. It curled up into a ball and shivered in the corner.
