"Hiss, we've been here for over half an hour now, haven't we? Apart from that vine from earlier, we haven't seen anything alive." Chen Jiaxu rubbed the goosebumps on his arms. "What if we still haven't found any ingredients after two hours?"

Wen Zuo said, "Then let's go back first. No matter whether this place is a dinosaur world or not, it's not simple."

Thinking of the statement on the form, Chen Jiaxu nodded hurriedly. Although his strength had increased, he was still too cowardly to face such unknown dangers.

Just as they were about to continue forward, a huge roar suddenly came from afar. The vines that were only a hundred meters away from Mo Shuwan and the others silently sank into the ground under the roar, as if they had given up hunting them.

Here it comes.

Cheng Hua and Yun Chen almost simultaneously ran towards the direction from which the beast's roar came. A few minutes later, the two of them returned together, dragging a huge dinosaur. "It really is a dinosaur. So this is the dinosaur world you were talking about?"

"It's possible, it's possible. After all, there's a high probability that dinosaurs also exist in other small worlds."

Although the dinosaur was enormous, it was far from enough to feed a thousand people. Moreover, the two-hour time limit was fast approaching. Since they had come all this way, they had to make the most of it. So, after discussing it, the six of them split up to find their own prey and would meet back at the low building later.

Time passed slowly. The guard in the low building checked the time and found that only ten minutes remained. The gray-level soldiers had not yet come out, but according to the forms they left behind, they were still alive.

In the final minutes, the soldiers saw Chen Jiaxu rushing back.

Chen Jiaxu struggled to drag a dinosaur, and when he saw that he was the only one in front of the low building, a look of surprise appeared on his face. "They haven't come back yet?" He turned his head to look around in astonishment.

Seeing Chen Jiaxu standing motionless outside, the soldier frowned and couldn't help but remind him, "If you don't return within the time limit, you'll have to stay inside until the next opening time before you can come in."

Chen Jiaxu asked hesitantly, "When is the next time?"

"Someone will come to collect the ingredients next time."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiaxu breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that since his team was coming here to collect ingredients, other teams would definitely be coming too, probably within a day or two. Just as he was thinking this, he heard the soldier's cold voice, "Not every team is collecting ingredients in the same small world."

As if doused with a bucket of cold water, Chen Jiaxu opened his mouth to ask a question, but then he saw Chenghua slowly walking back. The words that were about to come out of his mouth changed, and he said, "They will definitely be back on time."

Not long after Chenghua returned, Yunchen also appeared from another direction, also without carrying anything in his hands. After they got closer, Xu from the Chen family said dejectedly, "I don't know why they had to confiscate our bracelets. It's very inconvenient now."

Yun Chen shrugged. "I don't have any extra storage bags."

"I don't have any, and I never use that kind of thing."

Chen Jiaxu glanced at it curiously, wanting to ask Cheng Hua how he stored things without using storage bags or similar items. However, considering that they weren't yet at the point of being able to talk about anything, especially about such a private matter, he ultimately suppressed his urge to ask.

In the end, Mo Shuwan and the other two returned together, all three of them empty-handed, but they seemed to be in good spirits.

"Captain, what good thing happened to you?"

Mo Shuwan smiled and said, "We'll talk about it when we get back."

The dinosaur that Chen Jiaxu dragged back was eventually thrown into the ring by Mo Shuwan. They were just in the last few minutes before the time limit expired, and they returned to the low building smoothly. After signing their names with the soldiers, they walked back the way they came.

“Take a look at this.”

Upon seeing what Mo Shuwan had taken out, Yun Chen immediately swallowed hard, his eyes practically sparkling. He said, "It looks delicious. Can we eat it?"

Mo Shuwan was somewhat helpless. "Besides eating, can you think of anything else lately?" Despite her words, she still handed the thumb-sized red fruit to Yun Chenjing. "You can eat it. There should be some spiritual energy in the flesh."

Cheng Hua, standing next to Yun Chenjing, saw that he had already put the fruit in his mouth. He silently turned to look at Mo Shuwan. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning in his eyes was clear: "I want to eat it too."

So Mo Shuwan gave each of them one, saying, "Although we've found quite a few, I think given our current situation, we should use this in a critical moment. What do you think?"

This was a subtle reminder to Yun Chen that he should suppress his appetite.

Fortunately, Yun Chen understood and nodded.

When they returned from the teleportation array, the soldiers who had brought them there were guarding the door. Seeing them come out empty-handed, they couldn't help but be curious. As they walked back, one of them even asked, "How much food did you bring back? Is it enough to feed a thousand people?"

"That should be enough."

The soldier pondered the word "should," thinking it probably wasn't enough. If it were, he probably would have been showing off long ago when he came out. But now he was only given such an ambiguous answer, which probably wasn't enough.

He stopped trying to talk to the group and led them to the square before leaving.

It was already past 2 a.m., but none of the new recruits gathered in the square were asleep. Of course, some of them had already gone into their tents, but most of them were still outside the square. When they saw Mo Shuwan and the others return, they all looked over in silence.
