Chapter 19: The Survival Game (6)
"One last question." Yechen said, "Where did you come from, and how did you 'receive' anomalous people?" ”
The requirement of this mission is to live, but it does not explain how to return to the seventh dimension, according to Yechen's speculation, they - if there is more than one trial participant in this mission, they need to find a way to return to the seventh dimension by themselves.
Since it's a "return", figuring out how to get there may be a way to go back, so it's important to find the trialist's "spawn point" in this quest world.
Unfortunately, the girl didn't know, and she only gave a vague answer: "It's in the depths of the forest, in the depths of the Kalinzan forest, that there is an ancient ruin, and it is from that ruin that the professor brought you out." ”
The girl shrank timidly and said, "When you first came out of the ruins, you looked very ...... I was a little sluggish, and I only 'woke up' when I was about to get to the base camp. ”
This answer didn't satisfy Yechen, deep in the forest? What is deep in the forest? As long as it is not the edge of the woodland, it can be called the deep forest. According to the girl, the Kalinzan woodland is a primeval forest covering an area of more than 5 million square kilometers, and in such a huge woodland, how to find the so-called "deep forest"?
"In which direction are you talking about the ancient ruins?" Yechen no longer expects to know the specific location, "The general direction is fine." ”
"I don't know." Seeing that Yechen's face was cold, the girl hurriedly said, "I really don't know, that driver didn't drive in a straight line, the car was going around in the forest, and I couldn't tell the direction at all." "It's hard to find your way in the woodland, and even more so when you're in a car, there's nothing wrong with the girl's statement.
"Alright, I'm done with my questions, you should go." Yechen sighed and said to the girl.
From beginning to end, Yechen didn't ask what the poor girl's name was, for her, the life of a girl who met in Pingshui was not important, anyway, it was all about dust and dust.
The sun had completely set, leaving only a pale white afterglow.
How to survive tonight is still a problem, the primeval forest at night is very dangerous. Although it is said that with her strong physical fitness and fighting skills, Yechen is not afraid to fight to the death with anyone, but in the face of those hunters in the natural world, she is only a beginner trialist, and she can't fully grasp it...... The lethality of these powerful creatures cannot be underestimated.
Yechen walked in the woods, looking for a suitable big tree to live in at night. Many of the large predators that can pose a threat to her are not good at climbing trees, and even if they can climb large trees, the movement they make is enough to wake Yechen up.
On the first night of entering the mission world, Yechen lived a fairly peaceful life, except for a small snake that was disturbed by her, she was not disturbed in any way throughout the night, and slept comfortably until dawn.
The early morning sun shines through the gaps between the leaves, sprinkled on Yechen's body, the thin morning mist fills the woodland, and the moist air soaks the lungs, breathing the fresh air, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
I'm just a little hungry.
The meal before entering the mission world has been consumed all night. As a "player" of a survival type of game, it's time for Yechen to forage for food.
It's early autumn, and it's easier to find some berries, roots, mushrooms, and the like in a primeval forest, but the energy of these vegetarian foods is limited, and it's best to eat meat in order to be able to cope with the possible fights that may follow. In other words, Yechen needs to go hunting.
Yechen looked up and discerned the direction and walked towards the southwest. After walking for almost an hour, Yechen came to the familiar, gentle flow of the river.
Woodland animals need to drink water, and if you want to hunt, you should wait by the water source. This is not only known to Yechen, but also to the predators who live in the woodland, and in order to prevent himself from becoming a target for predators, Yechen climbs a tree by the river and checks his equipment.
The variety of supplies provided by the seventh dimension for the trialists is very cheap, but it is limited to private rooms, and if you want to bring it into the mission world, even a small packet of salt will cost a hundred gold coins. So when he entered the mission world, Yechen didn't have a weapon on his whole body, except for this clothes.
Originally, the pistol seized from Professor James was quite good, but there were only six bullets in it, and it was used up at that time, Yechen rummaged carefully, but did not find a spare magazine, but on the driver, there was a good harvest, a Nikur military dagger.
However, it is too dangerous to hunt with a dagger, and a hoof can kick Yechen out of a broken bone, so she chooses to use a short spear. A straight branch chopped from a tree, the thickness of two thumbs, and a length of about one meter and a half, can be used as a hunting weapon when one end is sharpened. Not only can it be stabbed, but it can also be thrown as a javelin, Yechen picked it up and tried it, it was quite easy.
Hunting requires patience, and Yechen waited patiently by hiding among the lush branches and leaves of the big trees, with five short spears made at hand. There is no metal spearhead, which dooms the short spear in Yechen's hand to be indurable, throw it once, if you accidentally shoot the stone, this short spear will be useless. She needs to find the best prey, and a just right timing.
The wild boar could not do it, and Yechen seriously doubted that this wooden short spear could pierce the thick layer of the wild boar's skin; Rabbits are not good, one is too small, one rabbit is not enough to eat, and in addition, Yechen is not very sure that he can shoot those dexterous little guys; It's best to meet stupid roe deer, Yechen heard a classmate say that this kind of stupid guy is very suitable for being hunted and killed. Although Yechen doesn't quite believe that it can survive in nature, is it really that stupid for a roe deer? But now she really hopes that what the classmate said is true.
After waiting for more than an hour, Yechen still hadn't found a suitable prey, but he waited for a gunshot!
Yechen hurriedly shrunk into the depths of the branches and leaves.
The gunshots rang out, indicating that there were heavily armed humans nearby, and at this point in time, Yechen didn't think that they had come to the Kalinzan Forest to hunt - even if they were, they were probably hunting anomalies like themselves.
After making sure that he would not be easily discovered, Yechen carefully observed, the gunfire was probably coming from the southwest, and there was a wild deer drinking water on the ground, and the surrounding animals were startled by the loud sound and ran around.
Because the distance was a bit far, Yechen couldn't see if there were any gunshot wounds on the wild deer, but it was estimated that those guys were also hunting. Because of their technological weapons, their foraging activities are much simpler than Yechen's, just aim at the right prey and pull the trigger.
After waiting for a few minutes, three guys in camouflage combat uniforms walked to the river, picked up the wild deer, and left with a smile.
Soon, calm returned to the river, the frightened animals cautiously returned to the water source, and the predators re-selected their targets. It's just that Yechen, who was hiding in the tree, has disappeared.
Thanks to the lush woods of this primeval forest, Nightshade jumped among the branches, far behind the three mercenaries. Yes, Yechen already knew their identities, through the words on their combat uniforms - Umbrella Employment Association.
In the girl's description, Stamm University is not only the largest comprehensive university in the Federation, but also a huge consortium, involving almost all high-tech industries such as biology, arms, materials, computers, software engineering, etc., and this umbrella employment association is a mercenary organization under the Stamm Foundation. The driver who drove before was from the umbrella.
