Chapter 5: Encountering the Dodo Again

Li Xiao clenched his fists, his expression became a little solemn, and after several painful deaths in a row, his mentality completely changed.

"This world is not a computer game for your own amusement, it is a world full of dangers and can kill at any moment! Resurrection is one's only reliance, but if you don't cherish this one and your only reliance, then real death will follow! ”

In order to solve the mysteries of this world and return to the real world, he must make changes!

Thinking of this, Li Xiao regained his mentality, turned over and stood up, and he once again identified where he was-

He has played the Ark game several times, and he is a personal radar.

Luckily, it's not far from where you first died, just north along the coast! Looking at the sky, Li Xiao quickened his pace......

It was getting late, and Li Xiao also saw the destination: the beach under the cliff!

Li Xiao was eager to return here, not only for the supplies in the corpse inventory, but more importantly, this place was a pretty good place to build shelter.

The cliffs and the sea in the east and west are natural walls, and they only need to put some barriers in the north and south, and this "corridor" becomes the perfect fortress, and this place is a small plain with a lot of herbivores in the south, and a swampy area in the north where they died for the third time, and there is no shortage of food and hides.

Especially the giant python that swallowed himself, when he has good equipment, he must go back to the field!

In the distance, Li Xiao had already seen his own corpse by the sea! Thanks to this game, I actually saw "my own" corpse!

There were two corpses in total, one was oneself and one was Dilophosaurus that he had killed.

Li Xiao died three times, each time with a 24-hour resurrection, so it had been three days since he killed the Dilophosaurus, but fortunately, there were few carnivores in this place, and the two corpses could be saved.

However, the temperature in this place was high, and the two corpses were already a little stinky, so Li Xiao walked to his own corpse first.

Li Xiao is not studying medicine, and it stands to reason that things like human corpses are still a little scary for him, but when he thinks of "this is his own corpse", the slightest strange feeling in his heart instantly disappears - his own corpse, what is there to be afraid of?

stepped forward to open the corpse's inventory, Li Xiao moved all the things inside to the current inventory, and as the last item was removed, the implant on the corpse immediately cracked, and the light dissipated, obviously unusable.

Looking at the items, the stone axes, stone pickaxes, and miscellaneous items are all there, and there is also a bonfire, it seems that he made a bonfire with his white hands before he died.

There is a [Place] option under the bonfire icon, as soon as Li Xiao's mind moves, a virtual shadow of the bonfire is projected from the implant, choose the position and then move the idea, this virtual shadow becomes an entity in the blink of an eye!

"Advanced, really advanced! It is estimated that the earth will have to develop this kind of technology for a few hundred years before it can be developed! If this thing were on Earth, it would be an epoch-making thing! ”

……

It's getting dark, and the night is falling, how do you spend the night?

With the bonfire in place, he still needs another animal skin sleeping bag, Li Xiao turned his gaze to the corpse of the Dilophosaurus-

Lack of hides? Isn't this ready-made?

Looking closely, the entire head of the Dilophosaurus has become meat sauce, which is Li Xiao's crazy masterpiece.

Recalling his ruthlessness at that time, Li Xiao has only one classic line to summarize:

I'm so crazy that I'm scared of myself!

Thinking of the scene now, Li Xiao feels that he doesn't know himself anymore. He has been a relatively gentle person since he was a child, but he has shown his own rage in this Ark world......

Split the two-ridged dragon at the waist with an axe, and Li Xiao picked it up.

Harvest!

The corpse in his hand disappeared, and there was something more in the inventory.

【Hidex2】

【Rotten Flesh x2】

Sure enough, the Dilophosaurus' stinky meat system was only counted as carrion, and it was inedible at all.

The other half of the corpses were also collected—

【Hidex3】

【Rotten Flesh x2】

The entire Dilophosaurus only provided Li Xiao with five animal skins, and it was still a lot worse to make a sleeping bag, and Li Xiao's gaze turned to another corpse - his own corpse.

"Forget it, let's figure it out." Li Xiao is also a well-educated modern person, and he can't do anything about a human corpse as a material—even his own corpse.

It's better to bury "yourself"!

Dragging the body to a distance, Li Xiao dug a shallow pit with a stone pickaxe and buried the body in it......

The bare earthen bag seemed to have something short, Li Xiao patted his head, turned around and found a wooden board to insert in front of the grave.

After carving the words "Li Xiao's Tomb" on the wooden board with the tip of a stone pickaxe, the whole tomb is much more pleasing to the eye.

"I buried myself with my own hands and put it on the monument, I am the first person in the past!"

After burying "himself", Li Xiao returned to the question just now, there are not enough animal skins!

It seems that some creatures will need to be killed to get the hides......

Staggering, a water dragon beast walked in front of Li Xiao as if no one was around.

A strange smile appeared on Li Xiao's face, and he took out the axe from his inventory......

【Hidex8】

【Raw Meat x6】

With the screams of the water dragon's death, there were enough skins to make sleeping bags, and dinner was served.

After several deaths in a row, Li Xiao completely understood the cruelty of Ark Island, in this life-and-death world, he must not be soft-hearted, the appearance of the water dragon beast is indeed cute, but what is the use of being cute? Where is there a meal of meat!

It's because of my soft heart that I didn't make the sleeping bag early, which led to my random resurrection, and now, this kind of mistake won't be made!

The sky had completely darkened, and Ark Island at night was cold and dangerous, so Li Xiao had better stay by the campfire.

The campfire has already been set up, and now the question is how to light it, but in the game it is simple, just press the ignite option, but the problem is that you are not playing the game!

According to the real urine nature of this world, eighty percent need to be ignited by oneself.

Do you drill wood for fire? It's too strenuous. Li Xiao thought of a solution, he took out two flints from his inventory.

One by one, the flints collided violently, and some sparks burst out.

Looks like it works!

The two flints collided again, and the sparks fell onto the flammable material in the campfire, and a little smoke came out, and gradually, the flames ignited.

Li Xiao took a few more pieces of wood from the inventory and added them, and suddenly, the warmth of the bonfire dispelled the chill of the night......

In the production column, white hands are sewing sleeping bags stitch by stitch, and it seems that they will not be able to finish it for a while.

Li Xiao took a piece of raw meat, put it on with a wooden stick, and roasted it on the bonfire. While turning from time to time, I also squeezed the berry juice on it, and I could only force it like this without condiments......

Staring at the meat on the bonfire, Li Xiao's thoughts flew away-

Although I have been here for more than three days, most of the time I am resurrected, and I am afraid that one day is not enough time to really feel it.

For Li Xiao's memory, it is:

In the morning, I was electrocuted while playing a game......

At noon, I came to this strange world......

In one afternoon, I died three times......

Until now, he roasted his food by the campfire......

The experience of less than one day is richer than my own experience of more than 20 years!

Just thinking about it, a dodo appeared in Li Xiao's sight-

The messy feathers, the tired look, the lost tail and the small wounds under the feathers all indicate that the dodo has just escaped from under the mouth of a predator.

It must be hungry and tired......

I saw this dodo walk to the side of the mountain wall and curl up, looking at Li Xiao with tired eyes.

This dodo looked a little familiar, Li Xiao thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized that this was not the dodo that he woke up when he first arrived in the Ark World?

Li Xiao compared the dodo in his memory - a blue body, a purple head, and an abrupt white feather on the top of his head.

That's it!

Compared with the glamorous and beautiful at that time, this dodo looks extremely miserable at this moment.

Thinking of the fact that he had met it here three days ago, Li Xiao had a bottom in his heart, and it seemed that the bottom of this cliff was its lair.

But there are no other dodos around, only it is alone, Li Xiao is curious about its kind? What about its family?

After a little thought, there is an answer, it is nothing more than being eaten by a predator......

"It's the same end of the world!" When Li Xiao saw the appearance of the dodo, he couldn't help but feel bitter, and took out some berries from the inventory and threw them in front of it.

The dodo is a creature that needs to be tamed by force, and it should be the easiest creature to tame on Ark Island, and it can be stunned with a single punch.

The problem is that this thing has no attack power at all, it can't be picked or weight-bearing, Li Xiao is not interested in taming it at all, and feeding it fruit is also for the sake of the two of them sharing the same disease.

This dodo was obviously extremely hungry, and ate all the berries in a few bites, and Li Xiao threw some more to it, and at this moment Li Xiao's roasted meat was almost done, and Li Xiao also began to gobble it up.

One person and one bird enjoy a rare food and clothing......

A piece of roasted meat went down to the belly, and the empty stomach came with a long-lost satisfaction, and the implant on the arm flickered - it seemed that the sleeping bag was ready.

Taking out the sleeping bag, Li Xiao got into it, his whole body was immediately filled with warmth, touching the soft and thick sleeping bag, Li Xiao found it hard to believe that this thing was still a bloody animal skin just now, and then remembered the stone pickaxe and stone axe that was reliable in his hand, sure enough, it was produced from scratch, it must be a high-quality product!

The dodo, which was also full, leaned against the stone beside it, and shrunk its head into its feathers in a peculiar posture, forming a feather ball, and it seemed that it was ready to rest.

There is no moon in the Ark world, but there are still too many stars in the sky to count.

Lying in the sleeping bag, Li Xiao was completely sleepy, looking at the starry sky, a little sadness permeated his heart......

"Mom, Dad, can I still see you?"

"Earth, can I go back?"

How to return to the original world, Li Xiao did not have the slightest clue in his heart.

I'm afraid I'm going to spend some time on this Ark Island.

It's hard to imagine that you have to spend the rest of your life on this island!

I don't know if there are any other "players" on this island, if not......

Thinking that he would be the only one living on this island in the future, Li Xiao couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.

A feeling called loneliness germinated in his heart......

Actually, death is not the most terrible, loneliness is.

This man, who had never cried in the face of death, shed two lines of tears at this moment......

A low sobbing sound disturbed the dodo on the side, and it looked up blankly and saw Li Xiao in the sleeping bag.

Twisting and twisting forward, the dodo curled up next to the sleeping bag and gently leaned against Li Xiao's sleeping bag.

It was late at night, and the burning bonfire crackled low from time to time.

Under the starry sky, a person and a bird gradually fell asleep......

————

"How nice it would be to wake up and be still in the dormitory!" Li Xiao thought so.

It's a pity that the dodo that pecked at his head broke Li Xiao's illusion, and Li Xiao was woken up by it as soon as it was dawn.

As soon as he lifted the dodo around his neck and threw it away, Li Xiao also lost his sleepiness at all, and thought about today's plan.

"If I'm not mistaken, level 3 will unlock the blueprint for the clothes." Li Xiao looked at his almost naked body and muttered.

The dodo was enraged by Li Xiao, and it thought that Li Xiao's act of grabbing its neck and throwing it away just now was a great insult to it!

It took its most ferocious posture - two little short wings outstretched, its neck extended, its claws scraping the ground hard, and it came towards Li Xiao, and it wanted to make this hateful fellow pay!

"Although the novice cloth is not very defensive, it is enough to tame a few self-defense pets!" Li Xiao thought about it, and kicked the dodo aside as soon as he raised his foot.

Then the dodo rushed up again......

Li Xiao kicked it away again......

Rush up...... Kick the ...... away

Rush up...... Kick the ...... away

……

The stupidity of the dodo is famous, and Li Xiao saw it this time. Seeing it paralyzed on the ground exhausted, Li Xiao was speechless......

Taking out the made [wooden bat] from the inventory, Li Xiao looked at it:

The shape is similar to that of a baseball bat, but it is shorter and can be easily wielded with one hand, and the handle is wrapped with grass fiber a few times, which is smooth and non-slip when wielded.

At this moment, his experience value has reached [20/50], and the experience value of his sleeping bag and bat are both 10 points, which is still a lot short of leveling up.

It seems that the rest of the experience points can only be obtained by collecting materials.

"Ascend to level 3 first." Li Xiao clarified the task for the morning......

Digging stones...... Chopping wood...... Fiber Berry ...... Roast raw meat when you're hungry, and eat some berries when you're thirsty......

One morning, Li Xiao stuffed a boulder more than a person high into the inventory, cut a few palm trees at the bottom of the cliff, and wiped out all the fern bushes as far as his eye could see......

When the hint of upgrading was remembered, Li Xiao sat on the ground.

"Tired! It's really tiring! ”

This is not a game in the Ark, where players can work infinitely day and night, and in this real Ark world, work is not easy!

But I've leveled up myself, and my inventory is full of supplies, so it's worth the effort!

In the [Item] column, several slots are already occupied:

【Stonex100】【Stonex21】【Flint x84】【Woodx100】【Woodx44】【Thatchx400】【Thatchx50】【Fiberx400】......

In this way, the maximum block for stone and wood is 100 units, and the light weight of thatch fiber is 400 units per block.

In the [Character Attributes] column, only the level that has changed is still the level: [Level: 3 (Experience Points: 0/90)]

And the [Production] column, as Li Xiao expected, added a set of drawings for clothes:

[Name:Coarse cloth jacket (original)]

[Damage Resistance: Very Low]

[Cold/Hot Resistance: Very Low]

[Durability: Very low]

[Crafting Required: Fiber x50]

[Note: From these three "very lows", it is obvious that this is the lowest level of clothing, but it is enough to cover your sleek body.] 】

【Name:Coarse cloth pants (original)】......

【Name:Coarse cloth gloves (original)】......

【Name:Coarse cloth shoes (original)】......

【Name:Coarse cloth hat (original)】......
