Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 199: Something Is Watching Us
After crossing the valley, it was already past three in the afternoon.
Along the way, Xu Yi and his group didn’t communicate with Wang Jin and her group, as the two teams moved one behind the other towards the inland areas of the island.
"There’s not a trace of any animal, it’s a bit strange," Lu Yao suddenly said to Wang Jin because Xu Yi and Lu Ke had stopped and could hear her.
"Xu, Xu Yi, should we keep going forward?" Lu Ke asked worriedly, looking at the few flying giant beasts in the sky.
In front of them lay an extraordinarily vast flat area, densely populated with trees, resembling a prairie.
"Sis, what kind of creature is that, is it... a winged dragon?" Wang Jin asked in awe, her mouth agape as she looked at the sight in front of her. She and Lu Yao hadn’t seen such flying giant beasts before.
"Have you seen them before?" Lu Yao noticed Xu Yi’s calm demeanor and asked.
They were seeing such large flying creatures for the first time.
"Seen it once, one flew over our camp." Xu Yi replied, but didn’t reach for his bow and arrow. Those flying beasts were still far from them.
"Will they attack us?" Wang Jin was more concerned about this, as they seemed impossible to deal with.
"I don’t know, probably." Xu Yi said, then glanced at his following camera ball and continued, "Show off a bit."
Following that, the camera ball moved forward, focusing on the jungle and the flying giant beasts in the sky.
"Is this the Jurassic? Did I see a winged dragon?"
"Mom, come quickly and look at the dinosaurs!"
"Oh my, this is terrifying, what will they do?"
"It’s really a winged dragon, so what Xu Yi saw last time was indeed a winged dragon."
"The difficulty just skyrocketed, how will they survive?"
"With winged dragons here, could there be carnivorous dinosaurs like the tyrannosaurus, the allosaurus, or the shark-toothed dragon?"
"How can they challenge 500 days, it’s simply unplayable, better to give up."
"You can handle bears and wolves, but dinosaurs... that’s really something else."
"I think dinosaurs are unlikely; the large beasts Xu Yi and Lu Ke encountered last time were probably rare. As for these flying giant beasts, they may not be like the winged dragons that once appeared on our planet."
"Whether or not they’re winged dragons, if they’re carnivorous, Xu Yi and the others are in extreme danger."
"Just tame them, surviving 500 days would be as easy as drinking water."
"You must be a fool, tame them?"
"Why not, raise them from young, we can keep lions, tigers, crocodiles, so why not dinosaurs?"
"Thinking about it, it’s quite thrilling, dragon riders, indeed live-action."
All the viewers in the live stream were captivated by the flying giant beasts, with countless audiences flocking to Channel 77 from other streams.
They were seeing such enormous flying giant beasts for the first time, leaving everyone shocked and worried.
Having such large flying giant beasts on the island wasn’t good news for any of the teams.
"What do we do now, should we go back?" Wang Jin asked, looking at the flying giant beasts, unsure of what to do.
"Going back is useless. As long as they are on the island, we’ll encounter them sooner or later. Besides, the soil here is rather barren, mostly rocks, not suitable for setting up camp. That there is the suitable place." Lu Yao said, pointing to the large forest below.
"Let’s go down, once we find a water source, we can build a camp. This large forest surely has abundant animal resources, much better than our previous place." Xu Yi said, as he started descending the slope.
Having made his choice, Lu Yao wouldn’t back down.
It’s just some flying giant beasts, can they really not handle them?
Thus, the four of them descended the slope and entered the jungle.
"Xu Yi, the trees here are so huge." Upon entering the jungle, Lu Ke noticed that these trees couldn’t be wrapped around by a person, and all the trees seemed evenly large in size.
Additionally, these were trees they had never seen before.
"Let’s head this way." Xu Yi said, pointing in a direction. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
"We’ll head this way, once we find a water source, we’ll establish a camp." Lu Yao added, the forest was vast enough to accommodate more than two teams.
With ten or so flying giant beasts in the sky, there would be no problem sustaining a dozen people.
As for the distance between their camps, it would depend on the water source distance.
Xu Yi took off the hunting bow, drawing an arrow just in case.
Encountering animals would be the best; the jerky he and Lu Ke had could at most sustain them for three days.
Potatoes and taro had already been blown away by the storm.
So, Xu Yi was eager to hunt an animal to bolster their food reserves.
They kept moving forward but couldn’t find a water source.
"Xu Yi, it’s getting dark, what should we do?" Lu Ke stopped, glancing at the sky, estimating it would be completely dark in half an hour.
But, they hadn’t found any water source.
"Keep going, stop when it gets dark." Xu Yi felt that moving forward was their only option.
Without a water source, they couldn’t establish a camp.
If they lack a water source, they couldn’t last a few days.
The water boiled today was nearly used up, at most lasting until tomorrow morning.
"Alright." Lu Ke nodded, following Xu Yi onward.
They didn’t find a water source until it became dark.
Meanwhile, on another path, Wang Jin and Lu Yao were slightly luckier than Xu Yi and Lu Ke, as they discovered a small river over ten minutes ago, with shallow water exceeding half a meter in depth and over two meters in width.
So, they found a spot by the riverbank, preparing to settle, and deal with the tree sheep carcass they had carried all day.
"Did Xu Yi and Lu Ke find a water source? Meeting them in the future might not be easy, right?" Wang Jin turned to look back, as the forest was indeed vast.
"Hard to say, judging by this river’s scale, the forest’s water resources should be quite rich, I even saw fish earlier. Hand me the hammock and let’s see if we can catch some to make soup." Lu Yao wasn’t too worried about Xu Yi and Lu Ke, knowing their survival skills were not weak.
"Let’s make a fire first, I feel like there’s eyes watching us, and it’s about to get completely dark." Wang Jin felt uneasy without fire.
"Something watching us?" Lu Yao frowned, knowing Wang Jin’s sixth sense was often accurate, she quickly scanned the surroundings.
