Chapter 398 Rework



"Kanester, if you really have the ability, then come on over!"

But let me tell you, this fox of mine is unlike any you've ever encountered before!

It's still too early to say who the hunter is and who the prey is!

After Ye Feng finished speaking, there was no further movement in the woods.

Cairnster simply snorted and left with his group.

Tonight, he gained a new understanding of this fox from China.

This person's creative ability is truly astonishing.

They can actually create a shield that can block crossbow bolts with their bare hands. If this drags on, things might really change.

His long-term combat experience as a special forces soldier gave him a sense of unease.

To kill these people without taking any damage, you have to force them out into the open for battle.

The jungle is your main battlefield; you'll have a much higher chance of winning if you fight outside.

Thinking of this, he immediately stopped and gave instructions to everyone.

“Starting tomorrow, day or night, whenever you have the chance, throw torches to harass them.”

In short, I have only one request: don't let them eat or sleep well. Three days later, when they are at their most lethargic, then we'll close the net!

Everyone was helpless...

Because while they are harassing others, their biological rhythms are also disrupted.

Even prolonged surveillance can be unbearable for the eyes after a while.

Not to mention risking getting close to the treehouse, there are 5 bows on the other side.

Once spotted by the enemy, they'll be riddled with bullets in an instant.

But Ye Feng is the last barrier to freedom, and that is their common goal.

So everyone could only nod in agreement.

Ye Feng and the others inside the treehouse were still shaken.

Especially Fu Changxiong, who was just one step away from death.

Fortunately, I didn't cut corners when sawing the wood, and I even applied the solution overnight.

Otherwise, he would truly be a corpse by now.

"Nobita, how's the roof?"

Ye Feng's question eased the lingering fear on Fu Changxiong's face somewhat.

"Oh... I saw it. They burned some dry palm leaves, and not much moss was burned. It's basically still okay."

Ye Feng nodded, looking at the black crossbow bolt in his hand and the small hole in the shield.

He knew that this level of defense was clearly not high enough.

"Da Xiong, immediately remove all the wooden planks from the shield."

"Everyone, keep sawing new planks. I need the 10-centimeter-thick kind."

Upon hearing this, Fu Changxiong quickly reminded him:

"Brother, it's not that I wanted to, do you know how heavy such a big shield would be if it were completely covered with a 10-centimeter-thick plate?"

"How heavy is it?"

Ye Feng asked…

“Now it weighs at least 35 jin (17.5 catties) or more. If this kind of wood is 10 centimeters thick, I estimate it would weigh at least 50 jin (25 catties).

This thing isn't like a bow, which is easy to handle. Most people would have a hard time even lifting it, let alone raising it.

This is indeed true; most normal adult men can easily lift a woman weighing 100 pounds.

However, if it were replaced with a stone of the same weight, it would become extremely difficult.

Just like Ye Feng, he can lift a 40-pound bow and shoot.

It wasn't exactly easy, but it wasn't particularly difficult either.

But if it were a wooden board or a stone, he couldn't do it with one hand at all.

This involves physics; with the mass remaining constant, simply changing the shape of an object can yield drastically different results.

"Even if you can't pick it up, you have to!"

Ye Feng shouted sharply, presenting the arrow in his hand to him.

"These crossbow bolts have a stronger penetrating power than composite bows, and they are also poisoned."

You're lucky today; he's aiming for your head.

If it had been aimed at the hand holding your shield, the arrow would have already pierced your skin.

You're probably dead by now.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, for they knew that Ye Feng was right.

"Everyone! To win this battle, we must pay attention to every detail, especially when it comes to life-saving equipment. We cannot be careless."

Okay, no one's sleeping tonight, let's get to work!

After saying this, the group started a large fire and worked under the cover of night.

Even if they have no work to do, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for them.

If the enemy launches another sneak attack, and the roof is burned down, they'll be truly finished.

At that time, this seemingly sturdy treehouse will be transformed into a cage with a transparent skylight.

The other side can throw whatever they want in.

That's true passive defense.

Fearing the roof would leak, Ye Feng disassembled the palm leaf beds where everyone slept and took them up to repair the roof.

In the pitch-black night, the sound of sawing and chopping wood filled the treehouse.

This sound continued almost until dawn.

At this moment, everyone was hugging the wood and sleeping in all sorts of crooked and twisted positions in the corners of the rooms.

Even the two monkeys couldn't withstand the irregular schedule of the past two days.

He was sleeping like a log…

At 9 a.m., everyone was still fast asleep, unaware that two people had already reached the base of their tree.

It was Pera and Seth…

Judging from their slightly listless eyes, their mental state was not very good.

But compared to Ye Feng and his group, they are still much stronger.

Having seized the absolute initiative, they were essentially playing a cat-and-mouse game.

Just like last night, the two ran away after committing their crime, giving Ye Feng and his companions no chance to react.

The two monkeys were the first to wake up and began to sound an alarm.

Ye Feng and the others were awakened again by the smoke...

After the fire was extinguished, everyone inside the house was listless, leaning against the corner of the wall with a dejected look on their faces.

It has been proven that when people don't get enough rest, their energy and spirit do indeed decline significantly.

Even Fu Changxiong and Zhan Pengwu, who were the most physically fit in the team, had dark circles under their eyes.

"Hey buddy, isn't it time?"

Zhan Pengwu squinted and asked in a daze…

Ye Feng slowly stood up, glanced out the window, and a disdainful sneer curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Just one last step..."

"Ouch!?"

Tang Weiwei shook her head and rubbed her temples.

"If this kind of jump scare happens every day, what if it happens a few more times..."

We'll probably all die of a sudden before they even come knocking on our door.

Are you sure that guy will fall for it? Don't mess things up and wipe us all out.

Ye Feng opened the window and glanced in the direction of the taro field.

"There's nothing I can do, the opponent is just too difficult to deal with. And that guy clearly has a significant advantage, yet he's still so cautious."

The only way to deal with such a clever person is to feign weakness. Let him see what he wants to see.

Having said that, he picked up his bow and arrows and his backpack.

"Let's go, let's see how successful this clever hunter's plan is."

One by one, everyone stood up and slowly climbed down from the treehouse.

The night before last, Ye Feng thought about it for a long time.

Given the current situation where the initiative has been lost and the opponent is so cautious and professional, killing the opponent is almost impossible.
