Chapter 58 The Fatty Who's Always Injured
Later, Team 4+1 encountered another group of people. Seeing they weren't from the same school, a fight ensued. Everyone saw Lili and Li Zhenzhen rushing to the front, Jin Cancan distracting the enemy's sight, while Wen Le and Xu Dongdong hid in the back, launching sneak attacks. They worked well together, and since the enemy wasn't much older than them and lacked combat experience, they were quickly knocked to the ground.
After that, they grabbed the equipment and destroyed the number plates to eliminate the other party. It was done in one go.
This team was beaten so hard that they were stunned and eliminated before they could even react.
Netizens watching the livestream were all saying how cool this move was, and that it was actually possible to play it this way. There were also objections, saying why they let the girls rush forward while they hid behind, which was unbecoming of boys. However, they were quickly rebuked by netizens below, who said that they could tell at a glance that the girls were more powerful, and that whoever was better at fighting should rush forward was fine. Then the two sides started arguing, and many netizens were dragged into the melee, and the entire comment section became a mess again.
After defeating this team, Wen Le's team's points became ten. However, they were only ranked in the thirties on the leaderboard, while the first place score had reached fifty points!
I don’t know how the first place winner did it, it seems like he started harvesting heads as soon as he entered the arena.
However, these are still far away from Wen Le and the others. They are no longer in the same district as the first place, so the possibility of meeting them now is very low, so they don't take it to heart.
Anyway, I signed up for the competition just for fun and to train myself at the same time. The ranking is secondary.
Regardless of the netizens' arguments, the 4+1 team started looking for a place to camp after harvesting the heads. It was getting dark soon, and if they didn't find a place to camp, they might not be able to sleep well tonight.
Finally, the four of them found a relatively high flat ground to camp. Jin Cancan walked around like an old man, sniffed the air, and made sure it was safe before nodding reservedly to the owner, indicating that this place was safe to stay.
It had learned this skill in kindergarten. When Susan was training them, she'd taught them how to help their owners choose safe campsites in the wild. Now it was putting it to use. Wen Le quickly pulled out a bag of dried meat as a reward and praised it, "Baby, you're amazing!"
Jin Cancan suddenly became dizzy under the guidance of snacks and praise from her owner.
Xu Dongdong commented on this: "This stupid cat is simply unbearable to look at. Just give it some food and get a few compliments and it becomes arrogant... But, he also wants to eat some dried meat, hmm~"
…
To reduce the weight, they didn't bring a tent for this competition, only compression sleeping bags and some tools. But this didn't bother them. When they were in school at Wade, they had to go out for training every month, and the school never issued tents. But they still found a safe place to sleep. Even if they couldn't find a place to sleep, they could use whatever they had around to build a simple tent.
The conditions now are much better than before.
Li Zhenzhen had her eye on parachutes; she planned to use them to sew a tent. Aside from Xu Dongdong's parachute, which was scratched and thrown away by Jin Cancan, the other three had been put away. Anything you carry outdoors is useful and shouldn't be thrown away easily. Now it came in handy.
Among the four of them, Li Zhenzhen was the best at handicraft class and had the best needlework skills. Although she couldn't make anything very delicate, she could still sew these parachutes into a simple tent.
So Li Zhenzhen was in charge of threading the needle and sewing, while Wen Le and the others were in charge of cutting. Lily saw Xu Dongdong still daydreaming and her delicate eyebrows suddenly frowned: "What are you doing there? Come over and help!" Do you still want to sleep tonight? What a tactless guy!
Xu Dongdong immediately ran over with a blush on her face, and together with Wen Le, they opened the parachute. They asked Li Zhenzhen to use a piece of mud to draw the lines that needed to be cut on it, and then Lily used folding scissors to cut it.
Li Zhenzhen worked very quickly, sewing a simple tent in about half an hour. She was afraid it might rain in the middle of the night, so she sewed a few more layers to make the tent thick and waterproof. Netizens who saw her work exclaimed in admiration, saying that kids nowadays are simply amazing, as they can even make a tent.
Even parents with children at home are very excited and are considering whether to transfer their children to Shaohua College, because these children have such strong hands-on skills. When you compare your own children with them, there is simply no comparison.
Then someone pointed out that Wen Le and the others had only been at Shao Hua for three months, so perhaps they learned all this stuff in their previous school. Everyone rushed to find their former school, and thus, Wade indirectly became famous. Because the Abandoned Star Reform had been a hot topic online a while ago, and the heat had just died down, everyone still remembered it clearly, and they said that children really need to endure a little hardship to grow.
So some parents with naughty children wanted to send them to Vader for a makeover, and some actually did so. It was later reported that the results were very good, and Vader became famous again in the interstellar world. But that's all for later. Now Wen Le and the others are worried about what to eat in the evening.
Fortunately, this is a jungle, and you can fill your stomach with anything you find. If you are lucky, you can even catch a rabbit or something to satisfy your craving.
This is when the benefits of having a ferocious animal become apparent. Jin Cancan sniffed the air, then pointed in a direction and howled a few times, signaling that there was food there. This is something Jin Cancan learned in "kindergarten." Susan said that a good companion should be considerate of humans and, when conditions permit, strive to find food for them in the wild. This makes them more likable. Plus, they get to eat delicious cooked food, so it's a mutually beneficial relationship.
As a carnivore, Jin Cancan is indeed not used to eating wild grass and wild fruits, so it is wise to actively look for meat to eat.
Jin Cancan has changed so much that even Lily couldn't help but praise it: "Jin Cancan is becoming more and more likable now. It's true that children can't be taught without being beaten. Naughty children are all spoiled by naughty parents."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Wen Le couldn't help but touch his nose guiltily.
Because Jin Cancan was there, Lily didn't go with them this time. Instead, she stayed with Li Zhenzhen to pack up their things and pick up some dry branches nearby to use for cooking later.
Wen Le and Xu Dongdong followed Jin Cancan to the place it had pointed to. It was a pond with a small group of duck-like water birds swimming in it.
When the two saw this scene, Xu Dongdong drooled and said, "So much meat, and eggs!" Roasted wild bird eggs are super delicious, and paired with the seasoning specially configured by the seller on Star Online, it is simply a delicacy on earth~
Nowadays, everything is available on the internet. People can buy what they want without leaving home. Even the seasonings can be prepared and sent to them according to their requirements. It is so convenient. As a foodie, this secret seasoning is a must-have for him when he goes out.
Xu Dongdong didn't take these water birds seriously at all, thinking that catching one was a piece of cake. He had also caught gray mice that were dozens of times larger than this one, and he had killed such ferocious gray mice, let alone a few water birds. In the end, he underestimated his enemy.
The fighting power of these water birds was no less than that of the gray squirrels. They flew over in a swarm, grabbed Xu Dongdong's face with their flat beaks, and wouldn't let go. They dragged her backwards desperately, twisting her body as they went. Xu Dongdong cried and snotted in pain, and screamed, "Oh my God, it hurts so much!"
This is the first time in my life that I’ve been bullied by these flat-haired beasts, and it hurts so much!
Wen Le and Jin Cancan rushed over to rescue him. He looked at the boy's embarrassed look and couldn't help laughing: "Will you dare to look down on these birds next time?"
When he was young and ignorant, he had looked down on these birds. Later, he was chased all over the village by a neighbor's rooster, and finally fell headfirst into someone's vegetable garden. Wen Le thought he was the most unlucky person at that time, but he didn't expect that someone would be even more unlucky now, actually getting pecked on the face by a water bird. Just thinking about it makes him feel painful.
The little fat boy was in so much pain that he almost cried his eyes out, but the netizens watching the live broadcast laughed so hard that they cried, and the number of people in the live broadcast room suddenly increased a lot. Even the teachers from the school ran in curiously to see what was going on. After all, the traffic in this live broadcast room has suddenly increased every once in a while since it started, so they definitely wanted to check what was going on.
After watching the replay, everyone burst into laughter. The 4+1 team became famous, and even the teachers at school knew that one of their new students had been bitten by water birds. After the game, the teachers couldn't help laughing at the fat boy's round face. The fat boy was so depressed that he ate half an extra bowl of rice.
Let’s get back to the topic.
Xu Dongdong suffered a critical hit and temporarily lost his combat effectiveness, so the task of hunting had to fall on Wen Le and Jin Cancan. Fortunately, both of them were experienced hunters, and they cooperated well with their pets. In the end, they caught three water birds, and while the group of water birds escaped, they picked up five bird eggs in the grass by the pond, and returned home with a full load.
As for the extra bird egg, it was left for Xu Dongdong to eat to comfort his wounded heart.
After returning home, Wen Le shared what happened with Lily and Li Zhenzhen. The two laughed so hard that they held their stomachs. Li Zhenzhen wiped away the tears from her eyes and said, "I can't laugh anymore. My stomach hurts."
The little fat boy looked at his friends who were laughing at him, and his tears flowed even harder: Oh, oh, oh… Why is it always me who gets hurt…
