Yamamoto focused his attention on the video footage from the drone.
In the video footage, three women are roasting a pheasant around a fire in a small courtyard in a village.
Yamamoto grinned wickedly and said, "Let's go over there and ask around to see where we can catch pheasants."
Hearing his unique pronunciation of "pheasant," the islanders burst into laughter.
In a forest in South America, a girl who looks about 80% like Yuan Chuyi is holding a dagger and staring intently at the water in the distance.
"Captain, do we really have to cross the river here? There are crocodiles here."
The girl said with a determined look, "We must cross this river. Once we cross, it will take another three days to reach the Ugly Kingdom's military base here."
Only by getting there can we possibly return to China.
The girl turned to the group behind her and said, "Bring the finished raft up; we're ready to cross the river!"
A moment later, eight or nine people put a simple raft made of two logs into the water. As the people rowed, the raft slowly moved toward the opposite bank.
The girl stood at the bow of the boat, constantly scanning the surrounding water. As the raft got closer and closer to the opposite shore, the girl's heart, which had been in her throat, gradually calmed down.
Finally, with everyone's combined efforts, the raft successfully reached the shore.
"Damn, that really scared me to death!" a young man said to the crowd.
"Water ghost, can't you learn something new? Crossing a river has scared you like this."
The young man called the water ghost retorted, "I'm not afraid, I'm in awe of nature, understand?"
"Alright, stop bickering!" the girl snapped at the two of them. "Grab your things and let's keep going!"
After two days of travel, the group finally reached the edge of the jungle. The girl took a sip of water, looked at the map, and said, "It will take about another half a day of walking before we can leave this forest."
Now everyone take out your food, let's replenish our energy.
The water ghost said, "Captain, we've been traveling for two days straight, and we haven't caught any animals along the way. Where are we going to find food?"
The other young man said, "How about this, the water ghost and I will go get some food, and you guys rest here first."
Seeing that the captain didn't speak, the young man quickly gave the water ghost a look.
The two made marks as they headed toward the sound of the stream.
"Wait for me a moment, I'm going to take a piss," the water ghost said to the young man.
"You're always causing trouble, you lazy donkey on the millstone, all you do is poop and pee. Hurry up and come back."
The water ghost carefully observed its surroundings as it walked towards a large tree.
Just as the water ghost shook the thing in his hand and shuddered again, his gaze was suddenly drawn to a statue not far away.
He drew his dagger and cautiously approached the statue. What appeared before the water ghost was a statue with the lower body of a horse and the upper body of a human.
After circling the statue once and finding no danger, he sheathed his dagger and muttered, "Could I have discovered an antique? Judging from the statue, it must be a figure from mythology."
He looked down and touched the long hair in the statue's hand, muttering to himself, "This weapon looks pretty good, but it's a pity it's made of stone."
After looking around at the water ghosts, I didn't find anything particularly interesting, so I decided to turn around and go back.
But just as he turned around, the statue, which had been keeping its eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
As if sensing something, the water ghost turned around and glanced at it. What it saw almost cost him his soul.
As he turned around, he saw a spear that rapidly enlarged in size.
With a whoosh, the spear pierced through the water ghost's chest. The water ghost gritted his teeth and used his last bit of strength to take out a signal flare and fire it into the sky.
On a natural boulder in the jungle, a girl is looking up a map to find her location.
Suddenly, a red dot of light began to flash in the sky.
The girl shouted to the others, "Oh no! The water ghosts are in trouble!"
At that moment, the others also saw the signal flare in the sky. Just as the girl finished speaking, the group had already picked up their backpacks and jumped off the boulder.
Two minutes later, when the group arrived at the scene, they saw another young man tightly covering the water ghost's wound.
The girl asked in a low voice, "What happened?"
The young man shook his head and said, "I don't know either. The water ghost said it needed to use the restroom, and by the time I saw the signal flare and rushed over, it was already like this."
As he spoke, the young man pointed to the weapon in the hand of the statue next to him.
The girl angrily cursed, "Don't fucking tell me it's a weapon that a water ghost uses to ram into a statue when it's bored."
The girl then angrily punched the statue in the face, "Damn it, there were 15 of us who came out together, and now there are only 9 left. How am I going to explain this to their families when I get back?"
Before the girl could finish venting her emotions, the others suddenly shouted, "Captain, watch out!"
Upon hearing the sound, the girl quickly turned to the side without thinking, and a tearing sound rang out.
The girl glanced at the spear that had pierced her clothes and quickly took two steps back.
The crowd watched as the stone statue, which had been standing just moments before, now had its legs raised high, and its hooves were about to stomp down on the girl.
The moment the monster's hooves struck, the girl rolled over and landed beneath its legs, drawing her dagger and stabbing wildly into its stomach.
Seeing this, the others also drew their weapons and began attacking the monster.
After stabbing herself in the abdomen several times, the girl rolled away, quickly escaping the spear's attack range.
The monster roared as it looked at the girl, and beneath its human-like face was a gaping mouth that stretched all the way to its ears.
"Damn it, I can't cut it! I only managed to pierce its skin with my full strength!" one of them said quickly.
"What the hell is this? Why is it oozing green liquid?"
Before anyone could figure out what it was, the monster brandished its spear and charged toward the girl who had stabbed it.
Just as the monster was only two meters away from the girl, it suddenly stumbled and fell in front of her.
After seeing the branches entangled on the horse's legs, the girl leaped onto the monster's back and began stabbing it repeatedly in the abdomen.
The others seized the opportunity and pounced on the monster as it tried to get up.
After a moment, the girl stood up and said to a man, "Thanks, Wood."
The man flashed his white teeth and said, "I almost forgot I have superpowers."
The girl sighed and said, "Let's bury the water ghost here."
Just then, another girl shouted, "Captain, the monster's corpse disappeared all of a sudden!"
The girl walked to the spot where the monster had just died and asked in confusion, "Damn, did it evaporate after it died?"
As her gaze searched around, she suddenly spotted a book where the monster had disappeared.
The girl bent down and picked it up. Looking at the few ancient symbols, she squeezed them tightly and said, "They're all dead, yet they're still pretending to be ghosts."
The others who witnessed this pointed at the girl's hand with their mouths agape.
