Ye Zi's shout before setting off was inspiring, but his 300-pound weight and the pot swinging back and forth on the pickaxe made him look like a migrant worker who was content with his lot in the city.
Many people in the live stream were quietly watching and praying for him, hoping he wouldn't encounter any wild animals, but they couldn't help but laugh when they saw his back.
"Why does this guy give off such a working-class vibe?"
"The person upstairs is right."
"Feel the same."
"Same feeling +1"
"Come on, brothers, let's get our working spirit going!"
When someone takes the lead, others follow; the barrage of comments expressing the working spirit of laborers is endless.
Tong Erya had just returned from another live stream. After all, they were her teammates, so she had to keep a close eye on the situation.
The screen was filled with comments about machetes, and then a rocket was launched on the screen via voice control.
The screen in the live stream immediately displayed the message "Tong Erya rewarded the streamer with a rocket," and the staff controlling the live stream also expressed their gratitude.
"Er Ya is actually watching a live stream. We've caught Er Ya red-handed."
"I'm actually in the same live stream as Goddess Er Ya! I'm totally drooling over her."
"Er Ya is mine, everyone else get the hell out of my way."
"Come on, Er Ya is the third contestant in live stream room number three. She's here to follow her teammates."
Finally, I'd like to say, Er Ya, you're my goddess.
With Tong Erya taking the lead, people started showering her with gifts, whether they wanted money or not.
The revenue from gifts received during the live stream will eventually be distributed to the contestants. Although the platform will take a cut, it is still a source of income.
Er Ya did this so that Ye Zi would receive an extra sum of money when she withdrew.
Soldier King Zhuang Yan and Sister Sparrow were also watching Ye Zi's third live stream. When they saw Ye Zi striding towards the mountains, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as they were worried that Ye Zi would give up.
Now, instead of worrying about giving up, I'm starting to worry about Yezi being in danger.
Ye Zi was completely unaware of the situation in the live stream. As soon as she entered the forest, she mentally addressed the system:
"System, start the search. Let's find a place to set up camp."
"clear."
"Also, don't let anything edible go to waste, we won't be picky about anything."
"Understood, begin the search."
Searching...
After wandering aimlessly for a while, Ye Zi said:
"System, didn't you find anything?"
"No, the temperature here is too low for fruit to grow."
"Alright, continue the search, prioritizing freshwater."
"Understood, continue the search."
The system was searching, and Ye Zi herself wasn't idle either, looking around as well. What's most important for wilderness survival? Shelter and fire.
In Alaska, where the Bald Eagle lives, it's quite cold, so don't expect to find coconuts or anything like that. Otherwise, coconut flakes would be a great way to start a fire.
Now all we can find are hay and birch bark.
The leaves didn't recognize any of the other things either.
After walking for a long time, Ye Zi was panting heavily. He was still the same fat man weighing over 300 pounds. Walking in the mountains was already strenuous, let alone for a fat man like him.
"Take a break, I'm exhausted. I need to find a place to take the Thousand-Pound Pill right away. Even if I don't lose weight, at least I'll be stronger and that won't affect my mobility."
"Understood, prioritize searching for water sources."
After resting for a while, Ye Zi got up again and walked forward. She stopped by a dead birch tree and began to collect birch bark.
Whether we can light a fire at night depends on this tree bark.
After stuffing the pockets of his windbreaker full of tree bark, Ye Zi regained much of his strength and continued walking forward.
"Host, we've discovered something else."
"Have you found a water source?"
"No, berries, edible, and two pheasants."
Ye Zi sighed inwardly and said to the system in her mind:
"Pheasant is out of the question, but some berries will do. Let's keep searching."
"Understood, continue the search."
Where are the berries?
"500 meters to the right front," the system replied.
The leaf adjusted its direction, listening to the system's guidance in its mind, and headed towards the berry.
The system's search range is within a radius of one kilometer, which is one li (500 meters).
Upon reaching the berry-growing area, Yezi plopped down and began panting heavily; walking through the forest had been exhausting.
After resting for a while, I picked a handful of berries and stuffed them into my mouth. I ate some, then picked some more. I could only put them in a pot, and my pockets were full of birch bark.
He sheathed the machete and continued on his way, carrying the pot with both hands.
This region is relatively cold, with virtually no poisonous insects. It has a systematic search function, allowing it to react in advance even when encountering wild beasts. Food is of great importance.
After walking for a while longer, the system exclaimed in delight:
"Host, we've found a water source; it's a stream."
"lead the way."
The system received the instruction and immediately began to guide the way. The news of finding a water source was like a shot in the arm, instantly giving Ye Zi's tired body strength.
He strode forward, his long legs swinging.
Upon arriving at the destination, a stream about two meters wide appeared in front of Ye Zi. She addressed the system:
"System, do you have some misunderstanding about the stream?"
"No, only a tiny bit entered the search range just now, so it was identified as a stream. But then we found out it wasn't a stream. I wanted to give you a surprise."
The system's answer was a little playful, but Yezi liked the playfulness and the surprise.
It's two meters wide and not deep, but it shouldn't be considered a stream. There are pebbles on the bottom, so it doesn't look like it was temporarily washed out by melting ice and snow.
Looking at the sky, the sun was still high in the sky, and there should be some time before it got dark. After thinking for a moment, Ye Zi decided to go upstream.
This place has mountains and trees, and in theory, it gets more dangerous the further you go into the mountains, but this water source is very important, so we must check if there are any pollutants upstream.
Let's get right to it, finish the inspection as soon as possible and start the fire.
After walking for a while, the system notification sounded again.
"Host, there is a spring 500 meters to your left."
"A spring? That's much cleaner than the river. Are there any signs of animal activity nearby?" Ye Zi asked as she adjusted her direction and headed towards the spring.
"No, the spring is small and the location is not good."
"Bad location? How bad is it?"
"The spring was blocked by a huge rock and two fallen trees. I only discovered the spring when I checked the water flowing out."
"Great place, let's go here."
Upon arriving at the location, Ye Zi finally saw clearly that the so-called big tree was indeed enormous, as thick as a person's embrace, and it was easy to tell that it must have been lush and leafy when it was alive.
The boulder was also quite large, about the size of two millstones and half a person's height.
Ye Zi looked around and saw that the spring was a bare hill behind it, with many exposed boulders. The boulders that were blocking the spring must have rolled down from there.
The other directions are relatively flat, but there are quite a lot of trees.
"System, search the hill and see if there are any other boulders that might roll down."
"clear."
