Wang Zheng immediately looked towards Chu Xiaoman.
All that could be seen was bloodstains on Chu Xiaoman's face, which appeared to have come from somewhere, and a dark blue spiritual crystal in her hand. It looked like she had found it on the Iron-skinned Bull.
Wang Zheng took it and put it into his storage ring as well. "A good start. I'll keep it here for now and distribute it later."
Chu Xiaoman felt that she hadn't contributed anything this time, and she would be embarrassed to accept any reward if it were given to her, so she quickly nodded in agreement.
Seeing that the two had finished cleaning up the battlefield, Wang Zheng quickly formulated a battle plan: "Before we came to the island, I roughly estimated that the island is very big. We definitely can't explore it all in a short time. Moreover, since we use survival time as part of the performance evaluation criteria, we will definitely need to stay for several days to get good results. We don't need to worry about supplies. I brought a lot. Now we need to find a place to stay for the night, determine our accommodation, and then find a water source."
Chu Xiaoman asked, "Didn't we bring supplies? And I can also condense spiritual water, so why do we still need to find a water source?"
"First, the instructor said that the supplies provided by the organizers are located in the plains in the center of the island. Just because we have our own supplies doesn't mean we won't go and get them. In addition, other teams will be going there. Whether it's to gather intelligence or to sell them some supplies, it's a good option. However, we should wait two more days before making contact with them, since they probably didn't get much in the past few days either."
Secondly, the stream is the only drinking water source for the strange beasts. If we find the water source, we can learn more about the movements of the strange beasts, judge their numbers, and choose whether to attack or temporarily avoid trouble.
Therefore, in conclusion, we should first find shelter, then water, and incidentally kill the strange beasts! Wang Zheng concluded.
Seeing that Wu Huan and Chu Xiaoman had no objections, the three of them quickly cleaned up the scene and, led by Wang Zheng, continued towards the higher point on the island.
Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.
While Wang Zheng and his two companions were searching for a habitat, the other trainees who arrived on the island did not have such a smooth experience.
Faced with the strange beasts for the first time, most people panicked, unable to utilize their original strength and abilities. Within just a few hours of arriving on the island, two people were rescued and eliminated.
Meanwhile, Chi Bofei chose not to join his teammates, instead wandering alone through the dense forest. He showed no sign of tension whatsoever; it was more like he was strolling through his own backyard than hunting a strange beast.
As he ventured deeper, a local pig came into view. The pig seemed to sense the danger, breathing heavily and cautiously looking around.
Chi Bofei didn't seem to care at all. His dagger flashed up and down, and then his figure disappeared mysteriously. He suddenly appeared on the head of the earth pig, and a dagger was thrust straight into its brow. This low-level beast of the second rank was killed instantly before it could even react.
By the time he dug the silver coin out of the boar, his hands were covered in blood. Seemingly stimulated by the blood, Chi Bofei's expression became somewhat ferocious, his face contorted in pain, and his eyes instantly turned bloodshot. He kept pounding his head, as if this could alleviate his pain.
After finally calming down, he staggered to his feet and continued his journey deeper into the jungle.
Shortly after Chi Bofei left, two figures emerged from behind the tree.
"Brother Li, Chi Bofei is so strong, do we really want to follow him? His ability is teleportation. If he wants to run away, we won't be able to catch him. What's the point of following him if we can't get any benefits?" one of the short, sleazy-looking men asked.
"Stop talking nonsense. Look at the way this kid was just now, something's definitely wrong with him. His teleportation either consumes a lot of energy or has negative effects. Let's follow him and let him kill the alien beast. Once he and the alien beast are both badly injured, you give him a mental shock first, and then I'll use my superpower to trap him."
"Then all his points will be ours! Isn't that better than us going through all that trouble to find and kill those beasts ourselves? After we pull off a few more heists, you get the Soul Infant Fruit, and I get the Danyang Fruit. With such rare treasures, who in the school will be our match!" Brother Li retorted.
The short man, after hearing the last part, revealed a greedy look on his face and said no more. Then the two of them followed Chi Bofei at a distance and walked into the interior of the island.
...
"Captain, there are two more Fang Wolves ahead!" Wu Huan turned to report to Wang Zheng.
Fearing that encountering other trainees would disrupt his grand plan, Wang Zheng put away his sledgehammer and walked at the back of the group with Chu Xiaoman, while Wu Huan led the way.
"You two, one each. Any problems? I'll cover for you," Wang Zheng asked the two.
He was still a little worried. Although Wu Huan seemed calm, he had never actually fought against a monster, and Chu Xiaoman seemed even more unreliable.
Although nervous, Wu Huan gritted his teeth and nodded. Chu Xiaoman, on the other hand, was speechless. "Weren't you supposed to be in logistics? Why am I supposed to be fighting monsters all by myself?"
It was obvious that she was somewhat scared.
Wang Zheng said with a serious expression, "Since you have chosen to insist on going to the island, you must participate in the battle. Otherwise, what are you here for? Moreover, the Fang Wolf is such a weak second-grade alien beast. If you are afraid of even this, I can help you give up right now."
Chu Xiaoman muttered unconvinced, "Second-grade exotic beasts are weak? That's only in terms of you, you freak. Don't forget, we're just E-level Awakeners, the same level as Fang Wolf, and I'm a healer."
Based on the knowledge learned in the training camp, the alien beasts are divided into six grades, from 1 to 6. Grades 1 to 3 correspond to the three levels of FD ability users, which is why Chu Xiaoman said that she was an E-level awakened user, corresponding to the second-grade strength of the Fang Wolf.
“Yeah, I’m an E-rank Awakener too, and I’m a healer too,” Wang Zheng said with a smile, picking his nose.
Chu Xiaoman rolled her eyes and ignored the shameless Wang Zheng. Then she drew her straight sword and rushed out with Wu Huan.
Fortunately, she was just complaining and didn't actually lack the courage to fight. Wang Zheng watched as the two people and two wolves quickly got into a fight and nodded with satisfaction.
Wu Huan was physically strong, but she was a little flustered at first. As she gradually became familiar with Ya Lang's attack methods, she began to handle the situation with ease. With each dodge and weave, sharp blades of light spread outwards from her body, leaving no gaps in her defense. Ya Lang was also constantly getting wounds, and the blood quickly stained the ground red.
It was only a matter of time before Wu Huan's team was victorious. Seeing the girl's delicate face full of excitement, Wang Zheng turned to look at Chu Xiaoman.
Although Chu Xiaoman learned to use the sword earlier than Wu Huan, the difference in their physical abilities meant that Chu Xiaoman's reaction speed and strength were significantly inferior. If it weren't for her petite stature, agile movements, and timely dodges, she would probably have been injured long ago.
This girl also had a strong sense of resilience; she gritted her teeth and persevered, without intending to ask Wang Zheng for help.
When Wang Zheng saw that Wu Huan had swiftly and decisively plunged a knife into Ya Lang's throat and ended the fight, and was about to help Chu Xiaoman, Wang Zheng quickly reached out to stop him.
Seeing Wu Huan's angry and confused look, Wang Zheng simply replied with a nonchalant tone.
"Trust her."
