Chapter 4 The Stranded Turtle
[Li Hanyi's skirt][Iron Man's discarded titanium alloy shoes][Huang Rong's freshly baked meat buns][Ninth-rank Sword God Yan Xiaoyi's arrows].
Looking at the pile of junk in front of him, Su Mu was speechless. The familiar ten consecutive draws and the familiar bald head.

I opened the steamer in front of me, took out a white bun, took a bite, and my eyes immediately lit up.

It tastes pretty good!
It was quite a harvest. Su Mu ate all eight buns in the basket in no time. He lay back on the chair and patted his belly comfortably.

Su Mu has lost his temper with the bald head in recent days.

[Do you want to consume 300 river favor points to increase river affinity? ]

"Yes."

【Upgrading! 】

[Affinity: 0.01%] → [Affinity: 0.013%]

Although it was only an increase of 0.003%, Su Mu could feel that his affinity for the river had increased a little bit.

Su Mu walked to the river and used his [Water Control] ability. His face turned red, but he could only control a drop of water to leave the water surface.

At this moment, he thought of something and opened the details panel of [Water Control].

【Water control: peeling, stillness, acceleration, retreat】

[Stripping: Level 0 (0/10)]

[Standstill: Level 0 (0/10)]

[Speed ​​up: Level 0 (0/10)]

[Back: Level 0 (0/10)]

He discovered that his own [Water Control] ability was further divided into four smaller abilities, namely peeling, stillness, acceleration, and retreat.

Control the water droplets and leave the water surface. This should be [peeling off]

Looking at the 84 River Favor Points I still had left, I added some with the mentality of giving it a try.

Just fill it up first!!

【Peeling +10】

[Stripping: Level 1 (After the river affinity reaches "0.1%", you can continue to increase it)]

I was overjoyed when I saw the progress bar moving.

Standing on the river bank and waving your hands, you can control a small group of river water to leave the water surface, about 10 drops.

[Standstill +10]

[Stillness: Level 1 (After the river affinity reaches "0.1%", you can continue to increase it)]

He went from being able to control "one square meter" of water to being able to control "ten square meters"

[Speed ​​up +10]

[Back +10]

[Speed ​​up: Level 1 (After the river affinity reaches "0.1%", you can continue to increase it)]

[Back: Level 1 (After the river affinity reaches "0.1%", you can continue to increase it)]

When these four small magical powers are added to the maximum level, Su Mu can control 10 drops of water to peel off the water surface, and control the "ten square meters" of water area to perform operations such as "still", "acceleration" and "retreat".

"Can't improve anymore?"

Su Mu looked at the river in front of him. What are these ten drops of water and ten square meters?
It seems that the first priority now is to increase the affinity of the river to "0.1%" before continuing to add points.

He checked [Swimming] again.

[Swimming: Level 0 (0/10)]

[Introduction: You can travel in any waters. ]

After watching it, I added some more points and maxed it out first.

[Swimming +10]

[Swimming: Level 1 (You can continue to increase your river affinity after it reaches 0.1%)]

[Introduction: You can swim in any water area and walk on the water surface, which increases your speed tenfold and your endurance tenfold.]

Su Mu spent 50 river favor points to upgrade these magical powers to level 1.

After filling up all the magical powers that can be added, Su Mu only has 34 favor points left. It became tight all of a sudden, and he had to find a way to earn favor points.

[You cleared the rubble by the river, Favor Points +5]

[You pulled out the weeds by the river, favor points +5]

[Today is another peaceful day. You have been rewarded for your vigilance. Favor points +10]

[You fed the fish in the river, favor point +1]

[You fed the fish in the river, favor point +1]

In the next few days, Su Mu rolled up his sleeves and worked hard, transforming himself into a diligent river caretaker to maintain order in the river.

I saved up a lot of favor points, and in just a few days, the favor points reached more than 300!
[River Favor Point: 397]

Su Mu did not plan to waste favor points on the lottery, as he had been losing a lot of money recently.

Improve your affinity first, this is a business that is sure to make money.

[Do you want to consume 300 river favor points to increase river affinity? ]

"Yes."

【Upgrading! 】

[Affinity: 0.013%] → [Affinity: 0.016%]

Su Mu calculated that one hundred favor points could increase affinity by about 0.001%.

My current goal is to increase affinity to "0.1%"

That still leaves a shortfall of 0.084%, which translates to about favor points.

There is a long way to go.

"Another calm day."

Su Mu lay on the grandpa's chair, leisurely eating rare fruits from all over the world. Although there was nothing here, Su Mu had no shortage of daily necessities.

Spend a little favor points and go for a normal lottery. Although the chance of getting a big item is small, it is easy to get some food and daily necessities.

For example, the grandfather chair that Su Mu is lying on is not an ordinary grandfather chair. This is the chair that Yongzheng sat on. It is made of the finest purple nanmu wood and inlaid with gold thread and jade. It is low-key, luxurious and grand.

As long as there is nothing wrong with the river and it is calm for a day, you will get an extra ten favor points.

After enjoying the delicious food, Su Mu stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and began patrolling along the river bank.

Although this small river looks very shabby and narrow, it is really too long. Su Mu has been guarding it for three months and has only explored a corner of it.

In order to make it easier for himself to guard the river, when Su Mu had nothing to do, he would build a duty room every few thousand meters, and then patrol along the river, lending a helping hand to any stranded fish or shrimps he encountered.

"what?"

"Another stranded little fellow was found."

Su Mu walked to the shore and found a small dark green turtle, lying on the shore with its four legs facing the sky, unable to get up no matter how hard it tried.

He squatted down and picked up the little turtle.

The moment the little turtle was held, it suddenly stopped moving, and its deep eyes looked at Su Mu. He didn't know if it was Su Mu's illusion, but he saw fear in those eyes.

Su Mu touched the turtle's head and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, little guy. I'm a good person."

"Go!"

"Be careful next time and don't run around anymore. Luckily I was patrolling this area today, otherwise you would have been in trouble."

As he spoke, Su Mu picked up the little turtle, bent down and threw it. It skipped across the water and sent the little turtle back into the river.

[Favor Points +5]

After sending the little turtle back to the river and receiving some favor, Su Mu smiled with satisfaction and brushed the dust off his hands.

Continue walking along the river bank.

"Ok??"

Soon, Su Mu found another stranded little turtle. When he got closer, he saw that it was dark green all over, especially with a small black spot on its head. Isn't this exactly the same as the little turtle just now?
