The sun was shining, and the gray and red skies were clearly divided into the barren land. The alternation of day and night allows the creatures belonging to the two sides to have a brief reunion.

A sparrow, covered in feathers, emerged from the moist and smelly river like a seedling that had broken through the ground.

After shaking off the mud along with a small amount of carrion on his body, he ran quickly.

Without the shelter of trees and the feathers to fly, birds have to return to the earth, just like their ancestors. It's just that it took hundreds of millions of years for their ancestors to adapt to the sky, and a few decades are far from enough for them to become familiar with the earth again.

Rather than taking advantage of the short dusk to find food, the first thing the sparrow does when it wakes up from the mud is to escape as soon as possible, otherwise, ......

Like the roar of a bomber in the distance, the sparrow spun its head in panic, and when it saw that there was no place to hide, it burrowed into the dirt again.

The mud, which could not stand firmly, quickly separated to the sides the moment the sparrow put down its head, and in less than two seconds, it enveloped most of the sparrow's body, but the next moment, the mud was back together.

A huge roar with a rapid surge of air currents caused a small ripple on the surface of the silt, and then quickly swept back into the air, and with it returned to the air, the panicked sparrows locked by three pairs of sharp claws.

A piece of flesh that was quickly rotting fell to the side of the river, which had become more and more lively, as if it had been dropped by a bomber. Countless other birds that woke up late and insects of almost the same size as them crowded together, desperately vying for this precious food.

The total amount of anything is constant, and if others get more, they will get less.

The predator was unhappy with the situation, and the jaws of iron pincers were slightly intertwined, and the few drops of red that fell became its last handout to the lowly animals below.

With a graceful turn, the predator flies north with his own dinner.

But just as he finished turning, a sharpened strip of dead wood quickly grew in size in the predator's countless eyes. By the time its slightly sluggish brain or rough nervous system figured out that it would be penetrated if it continued like this, the wooden strip had already penetrated its not-so-sturdy body, and continued to fly out for a few meters before falling down.

Before the stick hit the ground, the predator, along with the sparrow that was still clinging to it, fell to the feet of the three pairs of stopped moving.

"Today's dinner is over." Coulomb excitedly lifted the football-sized prey.

"What?" Qiu Yu pointed to the thing that made him feel disgusting just by looking at it, "This fly-like thing is your dinner." ”

"When we act together, in order to prevent unnecessary disputes, the items obtained in the middle of the journey are shared, so this is not my dinner, but a dinner for all of us."

Cullen's serious expression made Qiu Yu not see a hint of joke, so he turned his puzzled gaze to Jack.

"That's right, people who walk together can only have the capital to fight against homeless people and mutant animals if they support each other." After saying these words, Jack suddenly realized that Qiu Yu's puzzle should not be this, and after thinking for a moment, he explained again, "Although we have brought enough food, we can save a little, not to mention that the taste of flies is much better than dry bread." ”

After the rat came the fly...... Qiu Yu's brain, which had been running like a computer, crashed for a moment, "There should be a lot of animals that can be eaten, right?" Why pick these disgusting ones? ”

"Is it disgusting?" Coulomb looked at the two of them suspiciously, and sniffed before the fly raised his nose, as if there was a fragrant roast duck in front of him.

After Jack desperately imitated his thinking as a pampered person who was used to being raised in a high-level shelter, he vaguely understood what Qiu Yu was really puzzled about, "You can't just look at the appearance of things, in fact, the taste of flies is really delicious, and flies, like mice, have a strong resistance to radiation, so it is safer to eat their meat than other animals." ”

Jack pointed to the one still hanging from the fly's feet, like the corpse of a sparrow that had rotted for many years, "This kind of thing is something that most mutants with super radiation resistance don't dare to eat, and often one can kill people." ”

Qiu Yu's gaze swept back and forth between the sparrows and flies a few times, and he really couldn't tell which one was slightly less disgusting, "I mean, those things that are more like food, such as pigs and cows, shouldn't be ugly and dangerous?" ”

Jack thought for a moment, "This...... It depends on where it is, and if it's domesticated by those large settlements or organizations, it should be. But if it is encountered in the wild, it needs to make some complicated judgments. And even in an animal, it is not directly said whether it can eat or not, there is a difference in the specific parts, for example, this fly, its internal organs are not edible because it has to digest high-radiation things, and on the outer carapace, you see these thickest parts and these legs......"

"Alright." Qiu Yu could already hear a twitch in his stomach, "Throw that fly away, I'll let you eat a really delicious meal today." ”

While Jack was still hesitating, Coulomb had already thrown the fly out of the way, and he was already coveting the canned meat that Autumn Feather had taken to feed the rats.

Qiu Yu took out a tent on the spot for the two of them to set up, and took out a few pieces of solid fuel to prepare a hot meal for the two of them to eat a normal meal that belongs to humans.

But the matter of setting up a tent made the two quarrel.

According to Jack, the basic way in the field should be to dig a pit and spend the night underground. Coulomb thinks that now that he has a powerful weapon, he doesn't have to be afraid of those mutated animals that haunt at night.

Qiu Yu couldn't imagine what it was like to bury himself in the mud, and without such a special way of training, he would have to sleep forever if he was buried for one night. So after making clear their support for Coulomb, the way to pitch a tent for the night was decided.

However, his action of starting a fire was opposed by both of them, and Qiu Yu thought that they were afraid that the smell of cooking would attract mutated animals, but this was only a secondary reason. After the complicated statements of the two, Qiu Yu understood.

The atmosphere has been severely damaged and has become much thinner than before, resulting in a large temperature difference between day and night. If this area is warmed at night because of the fire, countless mutated animals with thermotropic properties will be attracted to it, and there are many troublesome things that cannot be solved with guns.

Qiu Yu felt that he was enveloped by a huge sense of powerlessness. If the comet civilization is an adversary that can be understood as long as it has a little bit in common, and then thinks the other way around at this point. So the current situation is that everything is difficult to grasp, and I don't know which points of previous experience need to be retained, which points need to be changed, and which points need to be completely discarded.

But the problem is still on yourself, if you can have a strong strength, why don't you care so much, everything just needs to be strong all the way...... But now, as the Evolutionary Extreme Law ability demonstrates, the only way to survive is to desperately adapt to the environment in front of you before you finally use it to change your environment.

People living in the last days do not have to go to school to learn useless knowledge for competition between their kinds, and a lot of time saved is used for practical training for survival, and it can be said that those who can survive in this era, including women and children, are the best survival experts.

And the ability of a survival expert is not only in combat, but also in excellent survival skills.

The tent that Qiu Yu exchanged for is also a product of future technology, as long as the four corners are fixed, and then gently pulled from one of the corners can be supported. The instruction manual that comes with it says that it only takes 1 minute to get it completely done after you become proficient. Coulomb and Jack couldn't read the instructions, but just looking at the structure of the tent, it took them less than twenty seconds to complete the job.

At this time, Qiu Yu was still under the domination of powerlessness, slowly rummaging through today's food in his bag.

It was a dinner that made Akiwa even more unhappy. Because I don't know how long I want to stay in this world, in addition to opening high-compression nutrition capsules, I only have a normal amount of food and water for more than a month, plus there are two people with me now, although they have their own things, but Qiu Yu doesn't plan to treat them differently, so on the premise of sharing with them, he has to be even more economical.

After considering these, the three of them only received two hundred milliliters of purified water and a box of chemically heated lunches, and before starting, Qiu Yu also made a special statement that the food should be eaten sparingly, and if they were not enough, they could only eat what they brought.

But the result made Qiu Yu feel an indescribable depression in his heart.

In their own opinion, these things were certainly not enough for them to eat, and in fact they should be, but the two people holding the pure water only drank a few drops after one exclamation, and then filled the water into their bags in another exclamation, and then took out the water that they had absolutely nothing to do with purity and drank it.

According to them, this odorless water can be exchanged for a lot of things, and it is too wasteful to drink it yourself, and it is already quite a luxury to be able to taste it.

And when eating a boxed lunch with vegetables and meat, these two people are like aristocratic ladies who have undergone strict court etiquette training, eating in small bites and chewing slowly, and after eating half of them, they directly put the rice into their own bags. Qiu Yu estimated that if they didn't know that these things couldn't be left for too long, most of them would probably be reluctant to eat the half just now.

Under their influence, Qiu Yu also lost his appetite, and after a few bites of hastily eating, he carefully put the rest of the meal back into his bag.

When the sun sank into the horizon, darkness suddenly descended like Li Ningfeng's ability to law. There were no stars or moon in the sky, and there were no lights from the city around. The whole land seems to be isolated from the universe and thrown into an endless abyss of darkness, and no matter whether you open or close your eyes, there is no difference in darkness in front of you.
