Chapter 255 Bone Arrow (Part 1)

It took a long while before Ye Ci regained her consciousness.

She could feel the cold seeping into her body. She could tell that she was enveloped by something wet as well. She opened her eyes slowly, and saw an azure sky filled with white fluffy cloud. The scenery was breathtakingly serene.

Where... Am I?

At that very moment, Ye Ci's mind was blank. She could hear ringing in her ears, masking away the sound of her surroundings.

Her body were sore. She could feel extreme pain on her arms and legs, but it felt as if she no longer have command of her limbs at the same time.

It was a very conflicting set of sensations.

Ye Ci slowly regained the ability to think after wallowing in these strange sensations. She moved her neck, and realized that she was submerged in water. Her arm was still clinging onto a thick strip of rope attached to the ship's mast, which was the sole reason that saved her from the fate of drowning.

Where the hell is this place? Ye Ci attempted to move her limbs, and gritted her teeth at the pain that followed. The seawater was cold, she would be dead if she suffered from a muscle cramp at a time like this.

She clung on to the mast, and surveyed her surroundings with great difficulties. She could see nothing but a vast stretch of water no matter where she looked, and she was surrounded by debris from the shipwreck. The azure sky remained calm, with the serenity of a loving mother.

Ye Ci's wits finally returned to her, and she was able to recall the events that happened before she lost her consciousness. It was a horrible incident. She could not believe that a storm that had wrecked her ship had happened in such a calm sea.

Her Stamina was almost drained, and a system notification was ringing in her ears. She would die of exhaustion if she did not replenish her Stamina. She held on to the mast with one hand, pulled out a bottle of wine from her inventory with her free hand, and immediately chugged it down. It was a bottle of extremely valuable wine dropped from a Goblin during her trip to the Western Continent. The wine could only be consumed by players who were at least lvl60, and could increase a huge percentage of the player's stamina. Ye Ci was reluctant to consume the wine, but this was the only thing that could keep her alive.

She would definitely lose her life if she did not choose to consume the wine to replenish her rapidly dwindling Stamina.

Alcoholic drinks had a better effect of raising one's Stamina. And Ye Ci could feel the numbness of her body fading away as her Stamina rose. She no longer felt cold, and her body was no longer sore. Her current condition was a far cry away from her usual self.

But it was way better than what she was feeling earlier on.

Ye Ci began to once again survey her surroundings once she was able to move her body.

The sun had risen and it was shining down on Ye Ci with its full glare, scorching her skin with its intense heat. The sunny weather also meant that Ye Ci's visibility had significantly improved. As a Huntress with high Perception, this meant that she could see further than an average player. She searched for survivors and life rafts that might be scattered around her but was disappointed by what she found. She was alone in this vast stretch of ocean, surrounded by nothing but debris.

Ye Ci called out her map with the intention of getting her bearings. She might was hoping that there was an island or even a continent nearby. She was once again disappointed when her map showed that she was in an unexplored zone. There were no nearby islands, nor was she in close proximity of a continent. A system notification appeared as she tried to zoom out with the map, "Map not available".
