That means 4 people were killed?

This mortality rate is not low.

The 5 minutes passed quickly and no other talented people came.

Captain Zhou said in a heavy tone, "No more waiting, let's go."

The casualties were heavier than he thought.

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although they felt sorry for the four lives lost, at least they survived.

So now as long as they get back to the base safely, they can get food, right?

Thinking of food, many people smiled.

Ji He, however, was secretly cautious, as she always felt that this road did not lead directly back to the base.

Not long after the boat started sailing, two turbid beasts appeared in front of them. However, the team was large and Ji He did not need to take action. The turbid beasts were divided up by the talented people in the base and the talented people hired later, one on each side.

The faces of those who received the energy stones looked much better.

Even the wounds on my body didn't seem to hurt as much anymore.

Energy stones are good things!

The boat sailed for more than an hour, but the surrounding grass did not become less dense, but became denser. The mood of the talented people also changed from happiness to anxiety.

But he remained calm and didn't say anything.

Another half an hour passed, when all their exposed skin was covered with several large bites from insects, someone finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Captain Zhou, this isn't the way back to the base, right?"

It was originally a tentative sentence, but Captain Zhou nodded and admitted it unexpectedly, "We still have a mission. We will return to the base after completing the mission."

As soon as these words came out, the gifted person, who was worried, sat up straight instantly.

He was immediately unhappy and shouted, "Our mission is to help the base rescue people. Now that the mission is completed, you should send us back!"

"Yes, send us back quickly."

Captain Zhou's voice was steady and without fluctuations. "Your mission is to join the rescue team. Rescue is just an explanation of the mission, not the final mission. The mission will take 5 days to complete. Only 2 days have passed, and there are still 3 days left. The base has not violated the treaty.

If you don't believe me, you can look at the photo. There is a line at the bottom of the task that says the base has the right to interpret the task."

There really were people with space buttons who took out their cell phones to take a look.

Isn't that right?

At the bottom of the notification there is a line of small words that are several sizes smaller than the other words.

The right of interpretation of all the above content belongs to the base.

The gifted person was still unwilling, "I don't care, this is a bastard rule, I won't let you do whatever you want, I want to go back to the base."

Captain Zhou nodded, very happy, "Okay, go ahead, I won't stop you. But we still have to complete the mission, so I won't send you off."

That person: “…”

What a joke!

Even if he had the strength to keep up, he didn't know the way back.

The others looked at each other. Although they didn't say anything, their attitudes were very clear and they were all unhappy.

After waiting for a while, Captain Zhou said, "No one is leaving, right?"

No one spoke, but the resistance was obvious.

He pretended not to see it and continued, "I just gave you a chance to choose. Since you don't want to leave, then complete the task well."

No one answered.

"Don't worry, this mission of ours is an extra mission. We won't let you work for nothing. We will give you food."

When they heard the word "food", their resistance eased a little.

If Captain Zhou came up and said that they had to do extra tasks, that would mean giving them food, they would not be willing to do it.

But he first put forward the task and expressed that he would not send them home. He forced them to ask for compensation after they completed the task. Naturally, everyone's attitude softened a little.

The fleet moved forward, and Captain Zhou began to explain.

"The task is very simple. Catch frogs. As long as each of you catches one and ties it up, the base will give you 10 kilograms of food as a reward. There is no upper limit. The more frogs you catch, the more rewards you will get."

Someone thought, "What if I catch a hundred of them? Will you give me 1,000 kilograms of food?"

Captain Zhou was very positive. "As long as you can catch him, the base will definitely give it to you."

"Do you keep your word?"

Captain Zhou nodded, "I'll definitely keep my word."

Someone asked the key point, "What frog? Captain Zhou, can you elaborate on it?"

Captain Zhou nodded, "Not big, probably between half a meter and one meter in size.

It's easy to catch, but it doesn't have claws and its attack power is not strong. As long as you hurry up, it won't be a problem."

Everyone nodded. It sounded okay.

After listening to this, Ji He felt that this task was not that simple.

She glanced at Gua Gua who was sitting aside quietly eating cookies.

In the previous mission, Gua Gua was sitting on the speedboat and didn't come forward at all. If she had simply measured the red plant, she could have used props. What was the point of her coming out as an assistant?

Take preventive measures?

She didn't believe that the base had such a kind heart.

Gua Gua was very sensitive. Feeling Ji He's gaze, he took out a cookie and handed it over. "Want to eat? I bought it from the system mall. It's delicious."

"No, you eat it." Ji He shook his head and refused. He simply stopped thinking about it and took out a piece of pork jerky and started eating.

The two girls were eating and the three boys were hungry.

Lu Zi glanced at the two of them, and before he could say anything, Zong Yi stepped on him.

He glared and the words were on the tip of his tongue, but when he saw Zong Yi's smiling tiger face, he somehow swallowed the words back.

He rolled his eyes and turned his head away, pretending not to see it and not to be bothered.

snort!

I don’t know who he is jealous of!

It was not known whether Gua Gua saw the exchange of words or not, but he did not look up. Ji He happened to look up and met Zong Yi’s smiling face.

Ji He: “…”

Look away and pretend you're not looking at each other.

There is no reason to treat you to food at this time.

A trace of regret flashed across Zong Yi's heart.

Why don't these two invite him to try?

He will definitely not refuse.

There are many animals along the way, and from time to time you can hear strange cries and the buzzing of insects.

For fear of causing trouble, Captain Zhou kept using props along the way. Ji He guessed that they were some kind of concealment.

After rowing for a while, Captain Zhou asked everyone to stop the boat in the bushes and take turns to rest for 4 hours to eat and sleep.

Although the time is short, it is better than nothing.

Because there was limited space on the boat, everyone had to sleep sitting up, including Ji He. She didn't find any clothes or blankets. She just hugged her legs, lowered her head, closed her eyes and dozed off.

In the wild, who knows when an accident might happen?

She didn't dare fall asleep.

She was so sleepy that she drank some black coffee to resist the drowsiness.

Guagua leaned on her left side, took some insect repellent, closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

The other people on their boat also relied on Ji He's light to avoid the harassment of insects and rested quite comfortably.
