Starting With a Reef [Global Survival]

Just moments ago, Yun Luohe was struggling to pull a garbage bag over a tr*sh can.

The next second, she found herself standing on the edge of a massive reef, with salty waves crashing at her feet.

【Welcome to the Doomsday Ocean Survival Kit.】

The so-called “starter pack” proudly included:

One tattered fishing net that might rip apart if you even looked at it wrong,

Two legendary moldy buns perfect for cultivating penicillin,

And five waterlogged, cracked wooden planks.

“Is this seriously my beta test reward?!” she hissed with disgust.

【Zing! An epic-level cheat detected —【Magic tr*sh Can】】

【Magic tr*sh Can — Level 1 (Upgradeable)】

【Skill: Recycle and Reuse】

【Tip: Toss in any junk to recover useful materials.】

Armed with her “baby tr*sh can,” Yun Luohe grinned:

“Your tr*sh is my treasure. Just watch — I’ll build an empire out of garbage!”

3.5 but rounded up.

A rather enjoyable game/system-based survival story. It has the potential to be a 5-star story, but it's still fairly early in the translation.

The MC is Yun Luohe, a young woman who wakes on a reef and is immediately bound to a system. Only, she is not alone as this is a world server (known as Zone 2). Like every other player, she now has a set of stats, but unfortunately, her luck stat is unbelievably low. Unlike other arrivals, she has managed to arrive with the garbage... more>> can she had in her hands at the time of the teleportation. Immediately, this golden finger helps her advance as quickly as the players with high luck. She's not overly kindhearted towards other players and is fixated on developing herself. She does, however, treat her few allies slightly better than she would a complete stranger.

Spoiler

Her tr*sh can allows her to recycle tr*sh into supplies. Bottles turn into plastic, ripped cloth into fiber, and so on. This allows her to gather the material needed to level up her base. The tr*shcan itself can also level up, and so many 'recycles' will result in her being able to spin the lottery wheel.

All of that causes her to develop faster with certain things compared to other players. She ends up with a lot of blueprints that allows her to make some every expensive and powerful things.

Plus, she has the cooking skill early on, which enables her to make food that restores stamina or gives buffs. Something that is a rarity as of chapter 52 (I think she might be the only one with that skill).

The MC begins to make allies as the story progresses, but by chapter 52, she mainly interacts with three individuals. One is the manager of the group she set up for trading supplies for tr*sh, the second is a young man who arrived with his sister, and the third is a woman who arrived with her four-year-old child. There are a couple of others that are in the sort of 'frenemy' department as they are rivals in addition to occasional teammates. The main three, however, are ones that the MC often trades with or goes to special islands with.

There is also Ruobao, the MC's leopard cat. He is an animal she found on one of the islands and eventually becomes her companion pet through a skill. Prior to becoming that, he's incredibly smart and understood most of what she was saying. Other than him, there haven't been any other mentions of companion animals.

The story progresses much like a "stage" system. First with the newbie period for the main players from the MC's group followed by the opening of islands for greater supplies. Each stage lasts a few in-story days before it moves onto the next one. And each stage gives an alert that players will be eliminated if they have not reached a certain level by the end of the stage.

Spoiler

It's because of this that the MC begins to take pretty good care of one of her allies. The manager of her group ends up being one of the lowest (if not lowest) ranked players but she makes sure to give him enough supplies to level up so that he continues on.

She knows having him as a teammate for islands would be good because of his stats.

So far, it's a pretty fun read. It reminds me a lot of survival video games so it's definitely written the way it should be. <<less
