They knew that any team that could survive in such a harsh environment must possess extraordinary strength, let alone a team of only two people.

After walking another ten meters or so, Li Yu stopped.

The team in front was not only large in number, but also equipped with a variety of weapons.

Several of the leaders were even wearing what appeared to be plastic armor.

These people were talking and eating by themselves, completely ignoring the hungry scavengers around them.

Those who were starving to death nearby only dared to watch from afar, smacking their lips, not daring to approach, let alone snatch the food.

Li Yu narrowed his eyes, guessing that this must be a team composed of awakened individuals.

He surveyed the surrounding terrain, selected a relatively safe location, and spoke to Xi Yao.

"Let's rest here."

"good."

Fu Xiyao nodded and put the package down. She also felt that they couldn't go any further, since there were just too many people here, and the more people there were, the more dangerous it would be.

The light still lingered in the distance, and Li Yu could only guess in his heart whether it was fire or not.

Li Yu sat cross-legged and silently urged the rotation of the Qi vortex in her abdomen.

Upgrading his superpowers is extremely important; it's his and Fu Xiyao's only hope for survival.

He knew that the stronger he was, the greater their chances of survival.

Fu Xiyao picked up the dagger and stood guard beside Li Yu, constantly looking around warily.

As darkness fell, some of the previously silent scavengers gradually grew bolder.

Before long, Li Yu felt that the energy in her body had been completely digested, and she felt hungry again.

"It seems that consumption will continue to increase in the future. If only there were a way to preserve food."

Although obtaining food isn't difficult given the current range of arrows, having backup food would certainly be better.

Thinking of this, Li Yu took out the last two cans of meat from the package, opened them, and started eating them in large bites.

While eating, he spoke to Fu Xiyao, who looked nervous:

"You eat too, let's finish the meat today."

Fu Xiyao took the meat from Li Yu and ate it silently. She knew that the meat in the can had reached the end of its shelf life.

The nearby scavengers soon caught a faint smell of blood.

The scavengers are extremely sensitive to the smell of fresh meat.

It is precisely this extraordinary sense of smell and the habit of eating raw meat that led the people in the safe zone to call the scavengers "wild men."

"They have meat!"

"I can smell it too."

Although it had gotten dark, for wild men who lived in darkness year-round, this level of light was enough to see their surroundings clearly, which was one of the reasons they were able to survive.

"They seem to still have a large piece of meat."

A sharp-eyed scavenger suddenly exclaimed.

Looking at the slightly bleeding package next to Fu Xiyao, the scavengers around could instantly guess what was inside.

"Can two people really succeed in hunting?"

"It looks like there's still a lot of meat left."

"And judging from the man's expression, he doesn't seem satisfied."

The scavengers not far away stared intently at the package next to the two, their eyes filled with greed.

But no one dared to step forward and snatch it.
