The Shaped Energy Vortex was unusable, and the supplies he was carrying were not sufficient, so the first problem Qi Lin needed to solve at the moment was to fill his stomach and maintain his body temperature.

The compressed food in the backpack can still support it for a while, but in the face of the declining body temperature, Qi Lin is helpless, originally because of the existence of the concentrating vortex, he only has two thin single clothes on his body, even if he adds a wingsuit with a warm layer and a parachute tied to his body, it still looks very thin, and the cold chill is desperately drilled into it from the gap between the fabric fibers...... If this continues, it won't be long before Qi Lin will suffer severe frostbite......

Mild frostbite may not be a big problem, but severe frostbite can lead to permanent damage to muscles and nerves, necrosis of body tissues, this kind of injury, even with Qi Lin's self-healing ability, can not recover in a short time, then waiting for him is only a failure.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, if you fail this level, you'll start again from the skydive." Just when Qi Lin was thinking about whether to start again and prepare more supplies, a sentence that suddenly came out of the mastermind completely dispelled Qi Lin's thoughts.

"it...... Why? If I had known I was going to be in this situation, I would have been well prepared! ”

"Because in the last level you chose to pass the level 'tricks', although I have no objection to this, and I quite appreciate your ability to improvise, but because of your tricks, you missed the original landing site, I set up a temporary camp at that landing site, with tents, plenty of food, winter clothing and fuel."

“……”

"It's not that you're not 'adequate' prepared, it's that you missed the opportunity to skydive and didn't get the supplies that were prepared."

Qi Lin couldn't refute the mastermind's reasoning - according to the practice in reality, it is indeed impossible for the airborne troops to carry too much material on their bodies, generally speaking, the materials will be dropped from the plane with the personnel, under the effect of various uncertain factors, it is not impossible for these materials to fall into the enemy's controlled area or the area where some paratroopers cannot reach, and every paratrooper who parachutes behind the enemy to carry out infiltration operations must be prepared to continue fighting in the case of extreme lack of materials.

"And where are the coordinates of the makeshift camp?"

"That makeshift camp is a hundred and twenty kilometers away from your current straight line, and there are several peaks in between, are you sure you want to collect the supplies there?"

“…… Never mind. ”

Qi Lin sighed, with his current state, let alone one hundred and twenty kilometers, even if it was twelve kilometers, I am afraid he would not be able to walk.

The blizzard gradually subsided, but the temperature remained around -10 degrees Celsius, and the altitude here is more than 3,000 meters above the snow line, and the temperature does not exceed freezing even in summer.

He had to act now, at the very least, to get his hands and feet back on his feet.

Qi Lin found a small leeward hillside, used a shovel to dig a snow hole in the snow that was large enough for most of his body to squat into, and then took out a small ball of velvet and a lighter, at this time he couldn't help but be a little glad that he was carrying a fuel lighter instead of the common gas lighter, in the plateau area, due to problems such as air pressure and air oxygen content, the latter is difficult to ignite.

The velvet was quickly set on fire, and Qi Lin hurriedly took out the only packet of solid fuel he had with him - this substance, which looked similar to margarine, had extremely high combustion heat, and only a piece the size of a fingernail could weigh more than half a kilogram of anthracite.

Qi Lin squeezed about one-fifth of the solid fuel into a circle on top of an exposed rock like squeezing toothpaste, and the milky white solid fuel burned as soon as it touched the ignited velvet.

A small pot was erected with a few steel brazings, Qi Lin picked up a few clean snow cubes and threw them into the pot, and under the licking of the tongue of fire, the snow cubes in the pot quickly melted, the temperature gradually increased, and a large amount of white steam rose from inside.

Qi Lin naturally couldn't let this steam go to waste, so he immediately took off his gloves, first grabbed a handful of snow and rubbed his hands vigorously, and when the frozen purple skin began to turn red, he quickly stretched out his hand directly above the small pot, letting the hot steam help his hands regain consciousness.

However, when the steam turned into water droplets attached to his hands, Qi Lin immediately pulled his hands back and dried them with clothes - the liquid that touches the body will quickly take away the heat from the body surface, and it is extremely important to stay dry if you want to restore your body temperature.

After repeating this cycle several times, Qi Lin's intuition in his hands finally recovered, and the blood began to circulate normally, and at this time, the snow water in the small pot had already boiled.

After eating a little bit in the hot water, Qi Lin took off his boots, then used a knife to cut through the frozen socks, picked up the snow and began to rub his feet, and then soaked his feet in the warm water that was no longer hot.

"Ah......h

This feeling made Qi Lin can't help but let out a comfortable moan, for a person who is on the verge of freezing, being able to wash his feet with warm water is simply a pleasure.

After drying his feet, changing into a pair of clean and soft new socks, and putting on his boots, Qi Lin put away the shelves and small pots, covered the ashes with crushed snow, and climbed out of the snow cave.

Solid fuel and compressed food can alleviate the urgent need, but it is not a long-term solution, a pack of solid fuel is only a hundred grams, in this environment, you can only boil five or six pots of water at most, compressed food is even less, just eat that little is already half of Qi Lin's inventory.

He suddenly realized that the first level of the long jump set by the mastermind seemed to be the easiest level, but it was actually a deadly trap - Qi Lin had to lighten his weight in order to get over that obstacle, and in the beginning, this trap misled Qi Lin into making the wrong choice.

He kept a lot of heavy ammunition and gave up half of his food and fresh water, and in Qi Lin's subconscious, he thought that the next level would contain a lot of combat content, but he didn't expect to find himself in this situation.

His only hope now is to be able to run into some mutant creatures that are not very strong, and as long as he can successfully hunt, then the problem of fuel and food will be solved.

"Mastermind, apart from the Frost Dragon, are there any signs of mutated creatures in this area? Preferably the kind of prey that is not very strong, but has thick fur and a lot of fat......"
