Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 341: Another Team Approaches

After Xu Yi returned, he threw the Desert Scale Wolf from his shoulder onto the ground.

At this point, everyone could finally relax, seeing the Desert Scale Wolf’s mouth wrapped with hemp rope. Its four legs were also bound with rope.

"Is it not dead?" Lu Ke asked in surprise.

Xu Yi had managed to capture the Desert Scale Wolf alive, but why?

"No way, Xu Yi actually caught one and brought it back?"

"Incredible, Xu Yi is awesome, actually brought it back. Could he be planning to tame it?"

"But this Scale Wolf is so small. If it were the Fierce Beast that attacked Wanzi and the others last night, it’d barely be suitable as a mount. Scale Wolves can’t possibly carry people, right?"

"If taming them were that easy, their future days would be better. They’d simply tame a giant lizard, wouldn’t they?"

The spectators were utterly shocked to see Xu Yi capture that Desert Scale Wolf and bring it back.

At this moment, Xu Yi picked up Cheng Jie’s axe and hacked at the corpse of a Desert Scale Wolf nearby.

With one swing, Xu Yi directly decapitated that Desert Scale Wolf.

Then Xu Yi lifted the axe and aimed at the neck of the unconscious Desert Scale Wolf.

After chopping down with the axe, he felt a rebound.

Not a single break appeared as if he had hit a rubber tire.

Was there damage?

Xu Yi felt there must be some; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been knocked unconscious by his earlier attack.

However, the damage was certainly minimal, and killing the Desert Scale Wolf like this was impossible and unrealistic.

"As long as they are alive, they possess such abnormal Defense Power. Once dead, they become ordinary enough. The animals here are entirely different from those we encountered on the island." Xu Yi frowned as he spoke, although he had only encountered the giant lizard and the Desert Scale Wolf, both had the same trait.

Under such circumstances, he couldn’t help but suspect, do other animals also possess this trait?

Most likely, yes.

"I feel that both the Desert and Jungle Area beasts have this characteristic. That’s probably why the organizers let us stay in Newbie Village for a hundred days. Hence, we need targeted weapons." Xu Yi continued.

"Right, I think long spears are more suitable for dealing with the beasts here." Zhou Chun said, somewhat relieved for having forged such a weapon.

"I’ve seen the exchangeable weapons, and only Military Daggers meet our needs. Moreover, exchanging three Military Daggers is enough, and the remaining issue is solving the gun handle." Xu Yi said, glancing at the group before opening his Star Chart and opting for an exchange.

The Military Daggers they exchanged were the 56-style Mitsubishi Military Dagger, 38cm long, quite handy for use as short swords.

Thus, even without gun handles, they could still be used.

"The exchange marketplace doesn’t have suitable ones. Probably we need to make them ourselves once we reach the Jungle Area." Xu Yi continued, closing the exchange interface.

"We don’t even know how far the Jungle Area is from us. We’ve been walking for more than two days now." Zhou Mo looked into the distance, somewhat bewildered.

There was no definite distance, only a direction; everything else remained unpredictable.

Perhaps another day would suffice, maybe ten more days needed.

No one answered Zhou Mo’s question—only time could answer it.

"Xu Yi, this is a Scale Wolf, have we killed it?" Lu Ke asked because the Desert Scale Wolf was already awake, continually wriggling.

"Wait for the Military Dagger to arrive, then test its destructiveness—no rush." Xu Yi replied and continued: "About half an hour more, grab something to eat, take a rest. Once the Military Daggers arrive, we can hit the road again."

Xu Yi’s comment made the audience in the live broadcast burst into laughter.

Testing the dagger’s power?

Must you be so ruthless, can’t you give it a quick end?

"If anyone’s Storage Space has free space, put some meat in it. I found the Star Chart’s Storage Space’s preservation function quite decent, probably vacuumed." Xu Yi recalled and mentioned.

Not only the Star Chart’s Storage Space behaved this way, Xu Yi realized his System Storage Space functioned similarly.

The more food, the better; once they reached the Jungle Area, a camp would need to be established, and having food reserves would allow the camp to be established with serenity.

Xu Yi crouched beside the Desert Scale Wolf, reached out his hand to touch its head.

Taming!

Xu Yi immediately utilized his Taming Skills to see if he could succeed.

If successful, he’d gain another asset.

Though it couldn’t become a mount, it could handle vigilance duties!

After using it six times consecutively, Xu Yi didn’t manage to tame it successfully.

Nevertheless, Xu Yi felt delighted because he discovered he could use it six times in succession, indicating his Spiritual Power had increased slightly.

"Xu Yi, that group appeared again." Zhou Chun noticed and commented.

"Ignore them, each minding their own." Xu Yi was more composed now; since Taming Skills could be used consecutively six times, other skills likely could too.

Humans lack abnormal Defense Power, getting hit by the Binding Skills would leave them awaiting decapitation.

Yet, approaching wasn’t easy either, groups now remained wary of one another. Non-simple-minded ones would consider that other groups might harbor robbery intentions while nearing them.

Furthermore, now each group had six people, unlikely all six wouldn’t consider this.

However, unexpectedly, that group was heading toward them.

Upon seeing this, Xu Yi narrowed his eyes instantly.

"Be alert, prepare for battle." Xu Yi stood up, gripping his machete.

Lu Ke and Zhou Mo raised their crossbows, aiming at the distance.

"Hey, one of our companions is injured and requires stitching. Do you have needle and thread? We can trade for it."

The person across stopped about hundred meters away and shouted.

Evidently, they guarded against Xu Yi’s group too.

Lu Ke glanced at Xu Yi; they indeed had those, also specifically for wound closure.

However, she did not respond.

"What do you have to trade?" Xu Yi asked. If their items held value, it would be worth considering.

Quickly, the people on the other side, surprised that Xu Yi indeed had this, responded with glee: "Binoculars, we can trade a monocular telescope."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yi couldn’t help but be stunned.

Though the exchange marketplace offered military binoculars, they required 35 points.

Yet, he felt their telescope likely wasn’t exchanged but brought by an eliminated group.
