Island Survival 7
It was dark by now and we needed to build a temporary shelter to rest for the night.
There were no messy thorny bushes at the bottom of the cliff, only relatively flat stones. There was no more suitable shelter than this, so the few of them decided to spend the night there.
It was agreed before that Chu Yun would save Shou Hou and the others, and the supply bag would belong to Chu Yun. Shou Hou and Fatty had no objection, but they really wanted to see what was in the supply bag. Although they couldn't enjoy it, seeing it would at least give them a taste of the bag.
Seeing that they were looking at him eagerly, Chu Yun took out a supply bag from his storage ring.
This time the supply package was a large paper box. Chu Yun opened it like a parcel, revealing the true appearance inside.
There is food, water, protective equipment, and a prop card inside.
The food consisted of 10 pieces of meat floss bread and 10 pieces of compressed biscuits, along with five 500ml bottles of water. The protective gear consisted of a flashlight, a set of alcohol and abrasion ointment, and five medical bandages. The last bandage had been used up a few days ago, so the new supply was a real relief.
Chu Yun distributed food and water per person, two loaves of bread, two biscuits, and a bottle of water. The skinny monkey and the fat man happily took their portions, carefully packing them into their now-shrunken backpacks. These supplies would last for two days. The protective gear and item cards belonged to Chu Yun's team.
The prop card is the same as the supporting materials rewarded by the system in the previous highway copy. It is a land prop card with an area of one acre. Collect five of them to open and operate your own copy.
The excitement of the skinny monkey and the fat man instantly dimmed after seeing the prop card. This prop card looked high-end on the surface, but it was not very practical.
Plants have a long growth cycle, and players who spend a lot of time in the game trying to survive don't have enough time to care for the plants on the land. Having your own copy seems impressive, but collecting five copies is even more difficult. Doing so brings with it a host of problems, including lack of infrastructure, management, operations, and rivals coveting it. For players without the financial resources or skills, just thinking about it is a headache.
Skinny Monkey: "This prop card is so useless!"
The fat man nodded in agreement. He and the skinny monkey were from the same community. They were still worried about their survival and had no time to care about these unnecessary things.
Chu Yun: “…”
This is not useless at all. The prop card can only play its greatest role when used in the hands of the right person. She did not tell the two people that she had seeds and zombie crystal cores that could accelerate the growth cycle of plants and animals.
She suppressed her inner excitement and planned to collect 5 land prop cards and wait until her personal copy appeared in the world, and everyone would know naturally.
Xu Dongdong and Yu Wenhao knew that Chu Yun already had seeds and prop cards. Although they did not have a clear division of labor, Chu Yun was their boss. The boss's business was booming, and as subordinates, they naturally benefited from it.
There were five item cards, and this instance had a total of ten supply packs. The system didn't display how many were left, so everything was guesswork. Since the game allowed for summoning a dragon by collecting all five, there must be a chance to obtain one. She waited and watched.
After making plans for tomorrow's trip, they built a bonfire, ate dinner, and prepared to retire. There were now five of them, and they excluded Chu Yun from the night watch, reasoning that Chu Yun was the leader and the most capable, and a good rest would be beneficial to the team. Chu Yun couldn't argue with them, so he obeyed.
Day 16 on the island.
Several people continued to climb up according to the route planned yesterday. After they came down from the cliff, they naturally would not climb up again and take the old path. Several people looked for a new entrance and exit at the bottom of the cliff.
The area below the cliff was very large. Walking out of the flat gravel road, they saw various vegetation similar to that of the temperate monsoon climate zone. It was clear that they had just passed through the vegetation area of the tropical rainforest yesterday.
The area below and above the cliff are like the yin and yang sides of a mountain. They are two completely different natural landscapes that are truly amazing.
"Come, come and see, there is a fruit tree over there." Xu Dongdong screamed excitedly. Several people looked in the direction he was looking. Sure enough, there was a small tree with brown fruits hidden behind a big-leafed tree. The fruit tree was very short and it was difficult to see clearly without careful observation.
They hadn't eaten fruit for a long time, and now when they heard the name of fruit, their mouths inexplicably began to saliva.
"Look, there are watermelons on the ground." The skinny monkey with 5.0 vision screamed. It seemed that there was a treasure under the cliff. They made the right decision to follow Chu Yun this time.
The tree with brown fruits was a wild kiwi. Although it was short, it had dozens of fruits. The game did not allow it to be uprooted, so Chu Yun broke off a few branches and put them in the space ring.
The kiwis were distributed per person, with each person receiving five, and the remaining four going to Chu Yun. There was only one watermelon, but it was enough; it was large, enough for the five of them to eat several times over. Chu Yun cut the watermelon into four pieces, placed three in the space, and divided the remaining piece into five equal pieces.
"Wow, it's so sweet!" Xu Dongdong took a big bite and exclaimed with his eyes narrowed.
"Yeah, we haven't had any fruit for about a month." The skinny monkey replied hesitantly with tears in his eyes and his mouth full.
Chu Yun ignored the two guys' pretentiousness and just asked them to leave the watermelon seeds for her after eating the watermelon. She had just obtained a piece of land prop card, and they all knew her intention.
"Boss, you can definitely grow watermelons. I don't know if we can eat the watermelons you grow in the future." The fat man felt a little sad as he spoke.
Yes, it is definitely possible. Chu Yun thought to herself, she had a strong premonition that she would have her own copy soon, just try harder!
After eating, we continued on our journey. We didn’t harvest any other supplies except fruits today, but the long-lost taste of fruits made everyone feel inexplicably optimistic. This is a sign that things are getting better and better.
Day 17 on the island.
They found a way out of the cliff among the rocks, but still no supply package was found today.
Day 18 on the island.
They continued to climb up following the compass direction. Perhaps due to the temperature being affected by the terrain of the mountain, the vegetation gradually changed from dense tall broad-leaved trees to short coniferous trees.
Xu Dongdong stumbled upon a small sweet potato patch, and each person received three sweet potatoes. Chu Yun also left a dozen sweet potato vines. Sweet potatoes are also a type of plant that can be grown by cuttings, so maybe they can be grown.
Day 19 on the island.
They dealt with a group of gluttons that attacked late at night.
It was Yu Wenhao who was on guard at that time. Fortunately, Yu Wenhao was brave and careful. He discovered the traces of the gluttonous dog's attack in advance and woke up the sleeping people in time.
There are about ten gluttonous dogs, and now there are five people in the team. Two of them are professionally trained, and the boss Chu Yun's combat ability is particularly strong, so this battle is not very difficult.
Throughout the whole process, Xu Dongdong, Shouhou and Fatty were confronting Taogou with weapons. Before they could even show their skills, Chu Yun and Yu Wenhao ended the battle quickly.
Chu Yun still held the bow and arrow, her coordination with it becoming increasingly tacit, each arrow killing a little cutie. Yu Wenhao, holding a machete, looked even more ferocious. The blade was so sharp that it chopped the fleshless legs of the gluttonous dog, leaving only the bones visible.
Xu Dongdong and the others stared in amazement at the ferocious duo dominating the arena. The gluttonous dogs' health quickly dropped from full to zero, and they lay on the ground, unwillingly taking their last breaths. It was indeed good to be under the protection of the boss; they didn't have to do anything except lie down.
The gluttonous dog loves to eat rotten meat, so its meat itself is very smelly. Moreover, this gluttonous dog is skinny and looks even thinner than a skinny monkey. It doesn't have much meat on it, so few people care about this little food.
The situation after the attack by the gluttonous dogs was extremely chaotic, with debris and blood everywhere, much like a large-scale murder scene.
The strong smell of blood here could easily attract a second attack from other wild animals. Chu Yun and his companions didn't hesitate and simply got up in the middle of the night to start their journey. Coincidentally, the supply bag they had received a few days ago contained a flashlight that was solar-powered and could be used for the night journey.
The humidity was too high late at night, and the temperature dropped sharply as the terrain on the mountain became higher and higher, so no amount of exercise along the way could warm me up.
Chu Yun encountered snowy weather during the road dungeon and bought a thick sweater, which was just right for him. But the others were not so lucky. Skinny Monkey and Fatty didn't have any extra warm clothes. They earned little gold coins, and they used it all on food, so they didn't have any extra time to think about anything else.
There was hot water stored in the space ring, so Chu Yun would pour them a cup of hot water from time to time. The cold weather did feel much better with a cup of hot water. The skinny monkey and the fat man looked at the hot water in their hands with mixed feelings, and they were moved and admired Chu Yun.
On the 20th day on the island, they finally reached the top of the mountain.
This is Chuyun’s 20th day on the island because she arrived 3 days early.
It was the 17th day that Yu Wenhao and Shouhou and their friends were on the island, so they only had 3 days left to complete the process.
The top of the mountain is more like a grassland, with flat and open terrain. From a distance, you can see several ecosystems such as grasslands, shrubs, swamps, and lakes.
This kind of terrain has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantages are obvious at a glance, and the disadvantages are also obvious at a glance.
Chu Yun and the others saw a supply package stuck in the swamp not far away. It was lying there in plain sight, so obvious that she believed the other teams had seen it as well.
Why did she mention other teams? Because she had already found traces of people walking by the swamp. Although the footprints were poorly hidden, Chu Yun found clues from the fallen weeds and the mud splashed on the weeds by the swamp residue.
There was a supply pack but they didn't take it, and they also deliberately destroyed all traces of their presence. It is estimated that there is a team of players hiding in the dark and planning to reap the benefits.
Chu Yun looked around, pausing for a few seconds at a bend in the mountain about a hundred meters away, then immediately shifted her gaze. Yu Wenhao and Xu Dongdong, her longtime partners, instantly understood what she meant. Skinny Monkey and Fatty, though slow to react, could also guess from the atmosphere between them.
"Do you want to take it?" Yu Wenhao asked.
"Take it, of course we have to take it." Chu Yun replied coldly. Although some people planned to take advantage of the situation, it would depend on whether they had the strength to do so.
When they reached the edge of the swamp, Chu Yun stopped several people from moving forward.
The swamp's surface was covered with low, wet-growing plants, their bases covered in mosses and ferns, making it impossible to see what lay beneath. The entire swamp emanated a rotting odor, like the stench of various unknown animal carcasses mixed in with the mud.
"Boss, why aren't they moving?" The bald man hiding behind the mountains asked the bearded man beside him. There were ten male players gathered here, and they were all forced by the bearded man to do hard labor.
"Wait a little longer, that supply bag is not that easy to get. If we get it, we will rush over to grab it. If we can't get it, then..." The bearded man said in a cold voice, and made a gesture of wiping his neck.
The players who followed behind tremblingly couldn't help shaking when they saw the bearded man's sinister expression. They heard that he was a prisoner who escaped from prison and had killed many people for robbery.
They had seen the bearded man's cruelty, and if they disobeyed he would torture them.
In this game, the only way to truly die is to have your heart attacked by the player. This demon, for the pleasure of killing, actually brutally killed a poor player. They also endured their anger and dared not speak out.
Looking at Chuyun's poor players, they sighed inwardly, thinking that another group of unlucky guys were about to suffer.
