Live Strong in the Wilderness
Chapter 477: The Strongest Team
Two Level 4 Fierce Beasts discovered their camp and are attacking Lu Ke and the others.
Luckily, there are 6 Level 4 Mages in their team, otherwise, they really might not be able to withstand the sudden attack from these two Fierce Beasts.
Xu Yi sprinted all the way, hoping to return to the camp before nightfall.
After all, if he’s around, Li Kang and the others would feel more at ease.
When Xu Yi rushed back to the camp, he saw the two injured Fierce Beasts being tied up.
"Is everyone uninjured?" Xu Yi asked with great concern.
"Just a minor injury, nothing serious, it will recover by tomorrow." Qin Fan said happily.
After all, they fended off the attack from Level 4 Fierce Beasts, and only he and Zhou Chun suffered some minor injuries, while the others didn’t get hurt at all.
They aren’t Divine Masters; Divine Masters can deal with Fierce Beasts of the same level alone, but they cannot.
Moreover, besides him and Lu Ke, everyone else had just advanced.
With such results, Qin Fan felt pretty good.
Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, as his main concern was someone suffering a serious injury.
Upon checking, indeed Qin Fan and Zhou Chun had minor injuries, ones that didn’t require much treatment.
"Did you also hunt two?" Ivica stared at Xu Yi, her mind blank.
Xu Yi, actually killed two?
They are quite aware of how powerful Level 4 Fierce Beasts are.
And Xu Yi, he actually killed two by himself, isn’t this too strong?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt such a man didn’t belong to her, and her heart ached more.
"No, one of them wasn’t killed by me; it was bitten to death by the other Fierce Beast." Xu Yi explained briefly, then he put down the two Fierce Beasts.
This way, they have four Level 4 Fierce Beasts. If they manage to tame all of them, they’ll certainly not lack mounts.
Xu Yi returned, and everyone felt more assured.
After all, he can single-handedly hunt one or two Level 4 Fierce Beasts; with Lu Ke and the others, there’s no need to worry about any beast attacks.
Xu Yi quickly took care of the Fierce Beast that was bitten to death, leaving the innards for the Black Qilin to eat.
Then, the areas bitten by the beast were all chopped off by Xu Yi, preparing the meat for Lightning and White Feather.
The rest, naturally, would be everyone’s food.
Xu Yi chopped some up and handed it to Lu Ke.
Liu Li and Cheng Jie were still trying to break through to the realm of Level 4 Mages, so the cooking was left to Lu Ke.
Half an hour later, the meat soup in the pot emitted a tempting aroma.
"Everyone, dinner time." Lu Ke called out, taking out two folding tables. These were, naturally, the handiwork of Xu Yi. His Wood Art was rather good, and combined with Spiritual Power used on it, making the wood perfectly flat was no problem at all. The only needs were patience and time, so Xu Yi made these two tables.
In the eliminated camp, some newly designed camping tables were stocked, made from very lightweight materials, easy to carry, and taking up little space.
They researched the Star Chart Storage Space to make the most reasonable design.
Of course, it’s not just the tables but other tools as well. Countless teams had been summoned by various countries to specifically design things for Xu Yi and the others.
The matter of Xu Yi’s return was likely confirmed.
He had quite a few Star Charts, certainly would bring some special tools up with him.
Currently, everyone believes Xu Yi is the only one capable of completing the 500-day challenge task. Thus, they hope to provide Xu Yi with some of the things he needs.
For instance, several teams are working on shooting net traps for Fierce Beasts for Xu Yi.
The ropes they were using weren’t safe enough. If the injured beasts broke loose, they could harm the camp members. Therefore, several research teams were using various materials to make beast traps.
Others were researching lighting equipment, drone equipment, solar charging equipment.
The goal is to improve efficiency, reduce size, and save space as much as possible.
With global support, the efficiency is astonishingly high.
Food, clothing, shelter, equipment, various medicines, etc., all had people researching them for Xu Yi and the team.
Xu Yi had some speculations about these matters. After all, the leaders of various countries were aware there wasn’t much time left for their planet. As long as someone could complete the 500-day challenge, then humanity’s crisis would be greatly alleviated.
As for the situation on Spirit Blue Star, that would be dealt with upon arrival.
However, Xu Yi didn’t know that the countries were taking it more seriously than he expected.
Mid-dinner, Qin Chao put down his bowl and chopsticks.
He broke through, Qin Chao directly broke through.
Then, Qin Yue and the others quickly ate and returned to their tents to continue training.
If nothing unexpected happened, they should all break through by tonight.
In fact, this matter was most impactful to Li Kang and them.
Xu Yi’s team was too strong; soon, they’d all be Level 4 Mages.
These 12 people could completely deal with all members of Li Kang’s team.
Having more people really doesn’t have much effect.
An elite team is the correct path. The human wave tactic is becoming increasingly meaningless against beasts whose strengths keep growing.
Sure enough, as Xu Yi predicted, by ten o’clock at night, Su Yan was the last to break through.
Achieving Level 4 Mage realm for everyone put everyone at great ease.
However, there was another piece of good news in the camp.
That is, the Black Qilin had a breakthrough. After eating dozens of kilograms of Level 4 Fierce Beast meat, it broke through to the realm of Level 3 Fierce Beast.
Moreover, as the Black Qilin broke through, it grew larger.
Originally needing some recovery time, but now, the growth in the breakthrough process compensated for it all.
Xu Yi himself quite liked the Black Qilin, and now that it has broken through, Xu Yi was even happier.
Unfortunately, the other Level 2 Fierce Beasts wouldn’t dare eat Level 4 meat no matter what. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be just the Black Qilin that broke through.
You can’t force things, so Xu Yi planned that once those four Level 4 Fierce Beasts were tamed, he’d let them eat up those Level 2 ones.
They are too timid to dare eat Level 4 meat, only proving they are cowardly.
Such mounts, why keep them if they aren’t dealt with, just to waste food?
Even the Black Qilin looks down on those mounts, disdainful to be too close to them.
The world of beasts is simpler than that of humans.
If it weren’t for Xu Yi restraining it, the Black Qilin might have bitten them to death.
At night, everyone continued training, not relaxing even after breaking through to Level 4.
Li Kang and the others then understood that the members of Xu Yi’s team usually rest about 4 hours a day, spending the rest of the time training.
Even while traveling, they train on their mounts.
A group like this leading others is quite reasonable.
After all, training several more hours a day than others, when accumulated, results in quite a significant number.
So, they felt that spending 3 Star Charts to enter Xu Yi’s team to improve themselves was really worthwhile.
