Only after the two had completely eaten did Li Yu slowly straighten up again.

After eating the snake meat, he clearly felt the energy in his body surging continuously, and the vortex in his abdomen was spinning faster. The experience points he had been lacking were finally full.

Glass Bow LV7 (Proficiency 70): Effective attack range 140 meters. 100% accuracy. Aiming time 2.8 seconds.

"Not bad, a slight improvement. There's also fresh snake meat to replenish our energy today. At the current rate of energy transformation, I estimate we'll level up again before tonight."

Looking at the enormous snake before him, Li Yu couldn't help but think:

"I never thought I'd have a day when I had so much food that I couldn't finish it all."

"It seems we still need a way to store meat. If Ma Yuanbai can help us make some, we might be able to eat it for a long time on the road."

Seeing this, Fu Xiyao wanted to step forward to help, but Li Yu quickly waved her hand.

“You’re not strong enough to carry it, let me do it.”

Li Yu took a deep breath and then forcefully hoisted the 90-pound python onto his back.

Then Fu Xiyao covered him completely with the waterproof cloth.

After doing all this, the two of them quickly headed back in the direction where the main group had been.

Some time after the two left the shallows.

A refugee with sunken eyes and an extremely haggard face followed the scent all the way to this body of water.

"The taste of blood is absolutely right."

The refugees took a deep breath, as if they had caught a glimmer of hope for survival, and hurriedly came to the water in front of them.

Upon approaching, the emaciated refugees quickly discovered a snake's head with an arrow stuck in it, lying on the ground not far away.

The smell of blood emanates from here.

"Great!" The refugee exclaimed excitedly, quickly approaching the snake's head.

Finding animal remains left over from others' meals under extreme hunger was already a great achievement for him.

Just as the refugee reached out and approached the snake's head...

The snake's head, which had been dead for some time, suddenly sprang up and bit his hand with lightning speed.

"Ah!" he screamed, too weak to dodge, and could only watch helplessly as he was bitten.

The venom was instantly injected into his body through his teeth, and within seconds, the refugee fell silent and lay stiffly on the ground.

......

"boom!"

Li Yu was walking.

Then another loud rumbling sound came from ahead, presumably the safe zone team had used that powerful weapon again to drive away the refugees.

However, the sound of the explosion also helped Li Yu determine the direction of the main force, allowing him to adjust his own route.

The two continued their pursuit with their heads down, but after walking for a while, the sky suddenly darkened.

Li Yu looked up and saw a dark mass of birds flying densely to the west.

“It’s a sparrow.” Fu Xiyao also looked up, the rain constantly washing over her face, making it impossible for her to see clearly.

“Not only.” Li Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, knowing that with his superhuman eyesight, he could see even further.

There are many sparrows, simply because sparrows fly at a relatively low altitude, while there are other sparrows above.

"There are also large flocks of crows and swifts, flying even higher." Li Yu noticed that these birds seemed panicked and wanted to flee quickly.

"Are rain crows also afraid of the impending rainstorm?" Fu Xiyao had seen rain crows since she was a child. After successfully evolving, rain crows eat everything and are very intelligent. In her memory, they have never had any natural enemies.

“It might not be because of the rainstorm,” Li Yu was saying when he suddenly saw a huge black shadow sweep across the clouds.

A feeling of palpitation and extreme danger instantly filled my body.

hidden!

As soon as the thought crossed Li Yu's mind, she immediately pulled Fu Xiyao, who was standing next to her, in front of her.

"Don't move." Li Yu whispered, and Fu Xiyao was so frightened by his sudden movement that she didn't dare to move.

The two stood under the tarpaulin for a long time without moving, until the dark shadows in the sky and the large flocks of birds flew away, and Li Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he didn't know what had just flown past in the sky, Li Yu could clearly sense that even in the thick clouds, the other party had definitely spotted him, but just hadn't attacked him.

"What just happened?" Fu Xiyao asked cautiously after the danger had passed.

"It might be some kind of flying beast," Li Yu analyzed calmly.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation since becoming an Awakened One; it felt as if his entire being was locked in place.

Evolved animals have basically only developed some changes to adapt to the environment, such as evolving waterproof feathers and gills that allow them to breathe in water.

The mutated beasts, on the other hand, became entirely new species.

Fortunately, the beast didn't seem interested in him.

The two continued their pursuit.

At this moment, Li Yu saw a small team of scavengers parked in the distance. Their eyes were filled with anger, and there were shredded remains beside them.

This must be the reason for the explosion.

After bypassing the small group ahead, Li Yu knew that the main migrating force was just ahead.

More and more refugees gathered around, and everyone could see that Li Yu was carrying a huge prey on his back.

Even with the waterproof fabric covering it, its massive outline could not be concealed.

Several starving scavengers mustered their courage and shouted loudly to Li Yu, "Sir, let me help you carry it. I still have the strength. Just give me something to eat."
