Outside the tent was the sound of torrential rain falling, and the bean-sized raindrops hitting the sea and the beach made a very different but equally loud sound.

The strong sea breeze constantly blew the tent, making the tent shiver like a sail in the storm.

Da Qiao grabbed Chen Zhe's arm in horror and said, "Chen Zhe, the storm is coming, how do I feel that our tent is going to be blown away......"

She was not exaggerating at all, because the wind on the beach was so strong that the branches of the trees nailed to the sand could not hold the tent in place, and if the sea breeze was left to blow for a while, the tent would definitely be blown away.

Chen Zhe tidied up his clothes that were a little messy, slowly stood up, and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, I'll go and have a look first." ”

The bonfire outside the tent had long since been extinguished, and no bonfire could hold out in the fierce rain, and the red charcoal fire was now only gray and white, like the bones of some animal after it had died.

The situation of the tent was indeed not optimistic, the sea breeze made the tent shake constantly, and at the same time as Chen Zhe got up to look, the corner located on the northwest side suddenly collapsed downward, causing the entire tent to lose its balance.

"Ah......h

"Oops, it's supposed to be the branches that hold the tent outside that have been uprooted. Chen Zhe frowned and said.

"That'...... So what now?" asked Da Qiao nervously as he struggled to prop up the tent.

"I'll have to go out and re-attach the tent to the trunk of the coconut tree with vines. The wind on the beach is so strong that ordinary tree branches can't hold the tent in place. Chen Zhe said in a deep voice.

"What??," Da Qiao heard this, and a worried look immediately appeared on his face, "Chen Zhe, it's stormy outside, you will get wet when you go out, and our bonfire is still extinguished, you will catch a cold......"

Chen Zhe said helplessly: "If I don't go out, and when the four supports of the tent are lifted by the roots, then both of us will be wet in the rain and catch a cold together." ”

With that, he tightened his jacket and resolutely stepped out of the tent and rushed into the storm outside.

Meanwhile.

In the live broadcast room of Wilderness Survival.

Because it was a nighttime live broadcast, the hosts and commentators had already taken a break from work.

Only some netizens who stayed up late were paying attention to the live broadcast room.

At this time, a violent storm was raging on the island, and most of the competitors were honestly hiding in shelters, which were either rudimentary or elaborate, but basically able to withstand the storm.

The only exception was the tent in Chen's group, who were under more pressure than all the other players.

This is not because their tents are of poor quality or as strong as their shelters, but because of their location.

The other competitors hid in the woods or on the hillside, and the vegetation and topography of the island gave them some protection from the strong winds.

However, Chen Zhe and Da Qiao had to stay at the seaside at night because they had to make salt by the sea, and there was no vegetation or terrain to block the sea breeze, so they faced a strong wind directly from the sea!

Even on the same island, even if the distance between them is only a few kilometers, the wind on the beach is significantly different from the wind at other parts of the island, and the destructive power is also very different.

Seeing that Chen Zhe's tent was crumbling in the sea breeze, and one of the supports had been uprooted, netizens couldn't help but worry about Chen Zhe, feeling that he and Da Qiao would not be able to spend the night safely.

"It's too windy on the beach, and Chen Zhe's tent will definitely not be able to hold on. ”

"The mud on the beach is already soft, and the tent will definitely be overturned when the strong wind blows......"

"It's so miserable, the salt made during the day will be wasted. ”

"If the tent is overturned and two people get wet in the storm, they will probably be eliminated on the spot...... Do you know how cold it is to be drenched in a storm? The temperature of the body drops so quickly that you may even go into shock!"

"Come on, Chen Zhe!"

"Another test of survival......"

“......”

In the barrage of netizens, Chen Zhe walked out of the tent.

As soon as he left the tent, he was drenched in the storm outside, and his whole body looked like he was standing under a huge showerhead.

Stretching out his hand to wipe his face, Chen Zhe quickly walked towards the corner of the tent - only to see that the branches he had driven into the dirt had indeed been uprooted, leaving only the vines used to bind them dancing in the wind.

"The branches are no longer reliable, so we have to tie the vines to the coconut trees. ”

Chen Zhe made up his mind in his heart, picked up the vine and walked towards the coconut tree next to him.

At this time, the torrential rain had completely drenched him, and the strong sea breeze was blowing, which made Chen Zhe's body surface temperature drop rapidly.

He gritted his teeth and acted against the wind, quickly rushed to the coconut tree, tied the vine to it, and tied a dead knot tightly to make sure the vine would not untie itself.

After fixing the tree trunk, the tent is much more stable, at least without worrying about the strong wind on the beach uprooting the coconut trees.

Just as Chen Zhe breathed a sigh of relief and was about to improve the other corners in the same way, a strong wind blew, blowing the vines tied to the coconut tree tightly and straightening.

Collapse ——!

A terrifying sound rang out, and the vines flicked through the wind, and although the force did not knock down the coconut trees or overturn the tent, they almost broke the vines.

Seeing this, netizens in the live broadcast room were worried again.

"Can this vine withstand the wind?"

"I feel like the vines are going to break......"

"There is also the silk thread used to sew tents, how do you feel like you are going to fall apart......"

"After all, it's just silk thread found on a desert island, and the quality is definitely not good. ”

“......”

Not only did netizens discover this problem, but Chen Zhe himself was actually aware of this problem.

The only ones used to hold the tents are the vines found near the camp, and the only ones used to sew the tents are the mulberry silk obtained from the reeling of the tiger silkworms......

These materials are not strong on their own, and now they are in a storm and then wet by the rain, which reveals the quality problem.

Even if Chen Zhe can fix the tent with coconut trees, can the tent itself hold on to the continuous pressure of the sea breeze?

If it takes a while, will the tent itself be blown apart?

When he had a question in his heart, Chen Zhe simply glanced at it.

Fortify this tent with the item upgrade system.

As soon as the eyes lock on to the tent for two seconds, the system will prompt:

[Item Detected: A beautiful and functional animal skin tent.] 】

[Item current durability: 203/4000.] 】

[Item value: 379 yuan.] 】

[Do you spend 200 popularity points to upgrade items?]

If Chen Zhe's naked eyes couldn't tell how strong the tent was, then the data given by the item upgrade system was enough to assist him in doing so.

The durability of the item clearly told Chen Zhe how long this tent could last.

The original durability was 4,000 points, but now the durability is 203 points, which means that the tent has reached 95% of the damage level!

It's going to be scrapped soon!

And under the madness of the storm, the durability of the tent is still decreasing.

Item Durability: 203/4000 - Item Durability: 202/4000......

It's just that Chen Zhe tied another tree and vine, and the durability of the tent dropped again.

"No, it seems that this tent really can't withstand the storm, if it continues like this, Da Qiao and I will be drenched in soup sooner or later.

The only way to do this now is to upgrade your tent. ”

According to past experience, every time the item upgrade system upgrades an item, the durability of the item will be directly restored, that is, as long as Chen Zhe completes the upgrade of the tent, then it will not fall apart.

Thinking of this, Chen Zhe hurriedly began to act.

Fortunately, now that there is the cover of heavy rain, netizens may not be able to notice the subtle changes in the tent itself.

"Level up!"

The system background automatically deducts the corresponding popularity value, and the description of the tent has also changed.

[Item Detected: A beautiful and functional animal skin tent.] —Upgrade—[Item Detected: A delicate, sturdy tent of animal skins. 】

During the upgrade, Chen Zhe was very worried that the appearance of the tent would change greatly, causing the system to wear out, so he kept staring at the tent carefully.

Unexpectedly, his worries were unnecessary, not to mention the netizens who watched through the camera in front of the camera, and even he, the person standing in front of the tent, didn't see what the tent had changed.

Because the rainstorm was so heavy, the raindrops bounced on the tent and created a white rain fog, which completely obscured the change of the tent.

The only thing Chen Zhe could see was that the durability of the tent had changed.

[Item current durability: 201/4000.] - [Item current durability: 6000/6000. 】

Directly from 201 points of durability to 6000 points of durability, so that at least for a short time, Chen Zhe will not worry about the tent falling apart.

After upgrading the tent and tying the vines, Chen Zhe successfully retreated, and quickly hid back in the tent while the body surface temperature had not completely dropped.

The camera is left with only a close-up of a tent shivering in the storm.

At the same time, netizens in the live broadcast room were waiting to see Chen Zhe's tent fall apart.

After all, the wind on the seashore was so strong that it blew the tent like a candle in the wind.

But a minute passed,

Five minutes passed,

Ten minutes passed......

Although Chen Zhe's tent looks like it is about to fall apart at any time, and the vines tied to the coconut trees are constantly deadlocked, this tent is constantly lingering and never falling apart.

After another half an hour, the strong sea breeze blew through wave after wave, and Chen Zhe's tent was about to be blown down several times, but it still did not collapse......

Seeing this, netizens felt incredible.

Chen Zhe's tent seemed to be under some kind of magic.

"This tent is too wicked, isn't it?"

"What the hell is going on with this tent?

"I'm not afraid that you won't believe it, I've been staring at the live broadcast room for forty minutes, just waiting to see the tent fall apart......"

"Chen Zhe's tent is a bit of a good quality......"

“......”

The other side.

Chen Zhe got into the tent soaking wet.

Da Qiao inside had been waiting for him for a long time, and when he saw Chen Zhe coming in, Da Qiao hurriedly stood up and said, "Quickly take off your wet clothes, wrap yourself in wolf skins and dry yourself, you have been drenched outside for so long, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Chen Zhe nodded, and looked down to see that Da Qiao had already built a small bonfire in the tent.

The bonfire was lit with charcoal prepared by Chen Zhe and placed in the tent, after all, in the rainy season, charcoal must be stored indoors, otherwise once it rains, the charcoal outside will be wet, and it will not be easy to live again.

He neatly took off his completely soaked jacket and camouflage pants, and squatted around the campfire wearing only a set of liners, but because of the heavy rain outside, the liner was also completely soaked.

Da Qiao thoughtfully sent the wolf skin over and wrapped it around Chen Zhe's body, and then worried that Chen Zhe was still a little cold, so he gently hugged Chen Zhe from behind.

"Are you feeling better now?" Da Qiao asked softly.

"It's a little better. ”

Chen Zhe nodded lightly, pretending to be serious about the fire, so as to divert his attention.

After all, the effect of those sea cucumbers eaten during the day is still there, and the close contact with Da Qiao will inevitably make people's hearts fluctuate, and the night is still very long, and there may not be anything to happen later.

But I have to admit that after walking around in the storm, the feeling of heat in my heart has subsided a lot, at least it is not as uncontrollable as just now.

It's just that although Chen Zhe's situation has been alleviated, Da Qiao's situation has not improved.

She was always indoors, and she was not "cooled down" by the storm.

She hugged Chen Zhe tightly, saying that she was warming Chen Zhe, but the girl's careful thinking is only known to the girl herself.

"Chen Zhe, I'm a little scared......" Da Qiao leaned against Chen Zhe's back and whispered.

"What are you afraid of?" Chen Zhe asked with a smile, "The tent has been reinforced by me, and the storm will not let it collapse." ”

"Really, isn't it so windy outside that the tent won't fall apart?" asked Da Qiao worriedly, "but our tent is only sewn out of mulberry silk, and these materials ...... Is it sturdy enough?"

"Sturdy enough. Chen Zhe smiled and said, "Don't worry, I promise you that our tent will never fall apart tonight, because it was sewn by several of us together, and you have to believe in our ability." ”

"Yes, yes?" said Da Qiao, half-convinced.

However, although she did not believe in the quality of the tent, she trusted Chen Zhe enough.

Since Chen Zhe said that this tent is fine, then maybe it is really fine.

And at the same time.

In a treehouse on the hill of the island.

Yan'er was woken up by the rumbling thunder outside the window.

She gently sat up on the windowsill, looked at the pouring rain outside worriedly, and said to herself: "Brother Xiao Chen, Sister Da Qiao, you must be safe......
