“I just went to the toilet just now. What did I miss? They’re already starting a fire.”

“Don’t be upset, buddy. You didn’t miss much, just an amazing scene.”

“Shen Fei is a master of playing with sand. If I say he is a top player, does anyone have any objections?”

“Boohoo, why is it that I can only use sand to build castles while he can actually use sand to make glass?”

“What should I do? The chicken rice I’m eating doesn’t taste good anymore. I’m going to order grilled fish takeout now.”

“Shen Fei has the potential to be a food streamer. Looking at him gives me so much appetite. I ate two bowls of rice in one go.”

What made everyone feel funny was desert eagle’s reaction. Originally, when desert eagle saw the fish that Shen Fei caught, the word ‘disgusting’ showed plainly on its face, and it quickly left.

Who’d have thought that after the fish was roasted and the fragrance spread, it would appear out of nowhere again? Shen Fei gave it a fish. After trying its taste, it felt as if it had opened the door to a new world and was pleasantly surprised.

Everyone could actually see a blissful expression on the eagle’s furry face. If this fish was eaten raw, the meat would contain a certain acidic element, but after being roasted, it would be released, forming an indescribable refreshing taste.

“What should I do? I suddenly feel envious of this eagle. I want to eat that too.”

“You’re not alone.”

“Looking at the instant noodles in my hands, I shed tears of disappointment. I’m leading a worse life than an eagle.”

Sunshine, beach, and grilled fish.

Although the desert was hot, as this was an oasis and there was a water source nearby, the temperature was lower than the outside. The two tiny fairies were playing on the beach.

With the sizzling sound of the grilled fish, the camera zoomed in, and golden oil dripping out of the fish, the scene alone was enough to make people drool.

Such a scene could be considered peaceful.

Compared to the other live streams that were still searching for oases and struggling to survive, those who didn’t know better would think that Shen Fei was having a vacation.

“Shen Fei’s style is always incompatible with others. How is this a survival game? We’re clearly watching a vacation live stream.”

“Previous commenter, wake up. The player next door’s throat is so dry that it’s smoking. Indeed, comparisons are odious.”

“No matter who you compare yourself to, don’t compare yourself to Shen Fei. They aren’t even on the same wavelength. It’s simply a blow from another league.”

If other players knew that Shen Fei was so relaxed, they would probably be angered to death before they could even find the oasis. They were all players, but he was the special one.

After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Shen Fei rested for a while. Looking at the vast sky above him, there’s no shelter. There wasn’t any danger, though. The chances of rain in the desert were very low.

However, as someone who was used to living in a house, he couldn’t just sleep on the ground. It was time to solve the problem of accommodation. Coincidentally, there were ready-made materials beside him.

Shen Fei had excellent hands-on skills. First, he used thick timber to build the foundation. Then, he built the frame of the house and used slightly thinner timber as support.

There’s a type of tree here that could secrete brown glue, which was very sticky. Shen Fei collected this liquid, mixed it with leaves and sand, and turned it into cladding that he smeared on the wall.

A simple and crude little house appeared in the empty space. It was only considered a billet, and there was nothing inside. It used up all the chopped wood incidentally and did not waste any. There were only scattered small branches that were intended to be used for starting a fire at night.

There was no magical power in this oasis. The trees that had been cut down were left bare, so they had to be used sparingly. Otherwise, if too much was cut down and sandstorm erosion happened, it would not be worth it.

Looking at his own work, Shen Fei was quite satisfied, “Although it’s a little rough, it can still accommodate people.”

Since there were limited materials, he could only do this for the time being. It would not be too late to change accommodations when he had better ones in the future.

Monie and Monica looked at the building in front of them with great curiosity, flying in and out.

At this moment, Shen Fei noticed the commotion in the chat.

Water resources were extremely valuable, so it was impossible for everyone to possess them. Even if they had accidentally obtained some halfway through, they should have already used up most of it by now.

The game had not announced the news of the other players finding more oases, so everyone should have a high demand for water resources. It was almost noon, the hottest time of the day, and the water consumption was even greater.

According to his estimation, there should be a lot of people who couldn’t hold on any longer. In fact, this was indeed the case. Very quickly, a few notifications showed before Shen Fei.

The Japanese player said, “I would like to exchange the eternal geomantic compass with you for 200 kg of water.”

The eternal geomantic compass could display items within a one-kilometer radius. It could be said to be a must-have item for treasure hunting. Shen Fei was instantly tempted. However, 200 kg of water was too much. Furthermore, he didn’t have a good impression of this country.

Shen Fei said, “200 kg is too much. I only used 50 kg to change the saxaul forest.”

The Japanese player said, “The saxaul forest was a special case. Moreover, its nature is not flexible. My gadget can be used indefinitely.”

He was exaggerating, but the effect of the geomantic compass was as he said. It was indeed very useful. However, although Shen Fei had a lot of water, it was not a renewable resource. Therefore, he had to be careful.

Shen Fei said, “You make it sound good, but the prerequisite is that there’s something around. If there’s nothing around, the compass will lose its effect. Furthermore, it can only display items within one kilometer.”

The Japanese player said, “Other than that, the compass functions as an alarm system. Safety in the desert is the most important. You can say that there are many benefits to it. It is worth this price.”

Clearly, the Japanese player was much smarter and did not give in for a while. In trading, both sides were engaged in a psychological battle.

Trying to play tricks with him? Shen Fei smiled coldly. His gaze landed on another window.

In any case, he wasn’t in a hurry. He wanted to see who would end up being anxious.

The Italian player said, “I’ll exchange the mithril set with you for 150 kg of water.”

Then, he sent the attributes over.

[Mithril set: Slender sword, arm shield, and soft armor (When equipped together, it will stimulate the potential of the human body and protect you. It is a tool that combines defense and attack.]

Shen Fei’s eyes lit up. Weapons and armor were exactly what he needed.

Shen Fei asked, “Do you want to trade all of them, or just one of them?”
