Infinite Survival: I Can Plunder Passive Skills-Chapter 48 - Ferocity

Zhou Chen and the others did not continue to explore the forest because they did not want to leave the water source that they had found with great difficulty, the small lake. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

The tree demons fought with the water monsters of the lake for a while before returning to their territory. The area quickly returned to normal. When Zhou Chen and the others returned to the lake, they realized that the tree demons did not attack them.

Of course, even the underwear man did not dare to go to the forest to test if those tree demons would attack.

“Our fire has been destroyed by those damned monsters. We have to make another one.”

The ponytail girl frowned as she looked at the ground beside the lake where they had started the fire. It had turned into a small muddy pit.

“It’s okay. It will take at most half an hour.”

The underwear man did not care and said casually.

“We should start the fire in the forest, or it will all go to waste if it rains.”

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and felt that it was not good to start the fire by the lake.

“Okay, let’s find an empty spot in the forest to light a fire. It is really cold when the wind blows by the lake.”

The young man in the green military uniform quickly agreed with Zhou Chen’s suggestion.

“The problem of water and fire has basically been resolved, we’re mainly lacking some food. Although we won’t starve to death in six to seven days, it will cause our stamina to decrease greatly, making it difficult to survive the monsters’ attacks.”

The underwear man rubbed his chin and said,

“I suggest that everyone focus on collecting some wild fruits while collecting the firewood. I will help you identify the edible types.”

“Thank you.”

The young man in the green military uniform nodded when he heard the underwear man’s words. In the conversation earlier, he learned that the underwear man had a special talent for not being afraid of poisonous things. He was the most suitable person to distinguish the fruits of this place.

More than an hour later, the four of them built a fire in the forest on the side of the lake and huddled around it while eating the wild fruits.

The number of wild fruits they found was limited, and each person only obtained about ten.

“Aren’t you hungry? Why aren’t you eating them?”

When the ponytail girl realized that Zhou Chen had placed his share of fruits in his pocket and didn’t eat any, she couldn’t help but ask.

“I’m a little hungry, but I want to store these fruits and eat them when I’m much hungrier.”

Zhou Chen replied calmly.

“Hehe, you’re afraid of being poisoned, right? I ate for a while and nothing happened. You’re too cautious.”

The girl had already noticed Zhou Chen’s concern and felt a little speechless.

“I feel a little too hot…”

However, Zhou Chen ignored her. Instead, he took off his mask and unbuttoned his desert camouflage suit. He pulled up his undershirt and rolled up his sleeves, revealing a large area of his skin.

“You’re hot?!”

The girl was even more speechless when she saw Zhou Chen’s actions.

“You’re really strange, but your figure and appearance are okay. I thought you were wearing a mask because you didn’t dare to face anyone!”

Zhou Chen ignored the girl’s ridicule and only smiled.

What the girl did not know was that Zhou Chen was doing this to let more skin on his body be illuminated by the flames, so that he could determine if the light from the fire could trigger Light Energy Conversion passive skill.

After a while, he made a judgment.

‘It seems possible. I feel like my hunger has stopped increasing.’

He felt that his energy had slightly recovered, and determined that his new Light Energy Conversion passive skill had taken effect.

‘Warming by the fire can also be taken as having a meal. Although there’s very little to eat, it’s better than having nothing to eat.’

Zhou Chen was delighted. He felt that the pressure to find food had decreased greatly.

At this moment, the other two men who were also warming themselves were discussing the white-coat young man.

“When I was collecting firewood, I found that the guy in the white coat did not even leave a corpse behind. There was only a small amount of blood on the ground.”

The young man in the military uniform said.

“I already looked for him. I wanted to change into his clothes, but he seemed to have been completely devoured by the monsters. These monsters are really sick.”

The underwear man said with regret.

“I say, since no monsters are attacking us right now, why don’t we take turns to sleep to recover our strength? Otherwise, it will be even more impossible to sleep at night.”

At this moment, the girl suddenly suggested.

“I didn’t sleep all night yesterday, and I feel like I can’t hold on anymore.”

She raised her hand to touch her eyes.

“Alright, if any of you want to sleep, go ahead. I have a good physique and I feel like I can still hold on.”

The underwear man immediately agreed with her suggestion and decided to be the guard.

“It’s not good to sleep in such an environment. I’ll just take a nap.”

The young man in the military uniform seemed to be a little sleepy. There was a tree behind him, so he leaned over.

The ponytail girl made a rough mat of weeds on the ground and lay on it. She was really tired.

There was also a tree behind Zhou Chen. He quickly leaned back against the tree and closed his eyes.

The three of them chose to rest, while the remaining was in charge of being the guard and keeping the fire up. The already silent forest immediately became even quieter. The only sound in the air was the burning of the firewood.

The underwear man sat cross-legged beside the fire. He picked up some sticks and weeds and added it occasionally, looking very calm.

However, whether it was intentionally or unintentionally, he observed the other three people around him. He glanced at the girl who was sleeping on the ground and glanced at the young man in the green military uniform who had originally said that he was only napping but was now snoring. However, the person he observed the most was Zhou Chen, who was opposite the fire. He looked at Zhou Chen, who was leaning on the tree trunk with his upper clothes unbuttoned and was breathing stably. He was a little unsure if Zhou Chen had really fallen asleep.

Time passed slowly. After a while, an ax suddenly appeared in the underwear man’s hand. His originally calm expression became a little ferocious.

“You’re finally prepared to attack?”

At this moment, Zhou Chen’s calm words suddenly sounded in the air. He opened his eyes to look at the underwear man holding the ax opposite the fire.

“Hehe, you really didn’t sleep.”

The underwear man, whose face was gradually filled with killing intent, did not seem to be surprised by Zhou Chen waking up. He looked at Zhou Chen and continued, “Mind your own business. When I kill these two, I can give you half of the dropped items.” 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

He bluntly revealed his bloody plan to Zhou Chen. His voice was not soft, as if he was not worried that he would wake the other two.

“I advise you not to do this. We’re all Dragon Country people. Isn’t it good to work together to survive this dungeon? As long as you’re willing to give up on this plan, I can pretend that nothing happened.”

Zhou Chen stared at the man and said calmly.
