Chapter 10 Insects

After half an hour, the aroma that permeated the hollow began to become extremely strong, and there was even a faint smell of burnt paste mixed within.

Ah Fu had completely puppeted the squirrel and was now testing the squirrel's performance, while Xu Yue looked at the huge black bird legs in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"Uh, you should be able to eat it, right?"

"I knew that I would roast it with an ordinary flame first, and then use pure yang flame to detoxify it at the end."

The size of the bird's leg was too large, and the time it took to fully roast it was slightly longer, coupled with the terrifying temperature of the pure sun, even if he was already trying to reduce the firepower, it would inevitably make the bird's leg appear scorched.

After thinking about it, he didn't blindly open his mouth, but first clicked on the item introduction of this thing to check.

【Blackened roasted bird legs】

Origin: Mysterious Island, Flame

Quality: White

Type: Food

Effect: Due to the trace amount of mysterious factors contained inside, it will cause unknown alienation of the organism after consumption.

Rating: 5

Introduction: Green materials, white food, it is really a hearty cooking.

…………

Looking at the evaluation on the profile, the corners of Xu Yue's mouth twitched slightly, and then he decisively ignored it, focusing on the 'unknown alienation' mentioned by the effect of the item, and judging from the various alienated creatures encountered along the way, there should be two possibilities for this alienation.

One is that it will cause the body to shrink like the Asian elephant, the size and attributes will shrink simultaneously, and the other is that it will be like the squirrel not far away, the size and attributes will expand year-on-year, considering that it is currently in the trial of survival, the former almost occupies 90% of the possibility.

This so-called mystery factor, after being ingested by the organism, will most likely cause the original huge creature to shrink, and the originally small creature will be enlarged, resulting in the complete opposite alienation.

And this factor does not belong to the category of toxins and curses, so even pure yang inflammation with the property of 'exorcism' cannot purify it.

Once Xu Yue's guess is true, then all the food on this island that contains mysterious factors cannot be eaten, not to mention whether there is a way to remove this alienation after returning to the paradise, just the weakening of the attributes attached to the shrinking body size is enough to be fatal, unless it is absolutely necessary, he will never try to ingest it.

With a light sigh, he threw the bird leg in his hand at will, and nailed it to the tree wall on the edge, and the muffled sound caused by the bump spread in the tree hole, which also attracted Ah Fu, who was busy not far away, he turned his head to look at the bird leg that was thrown away, and wondered:

"Sir?"

"It's okay, it's just that the creatures on the island are most likely inedible, and our next priority is to find enough food to satisfy our stomachs."

The food carried in the backpack, even with those few recovery foods, would support Xu Yue and Ah Fu for two days at most, and he had to find safe and sufficient food within two days, otherwise he would not be able to survive the remaining eight days.

After listening to Xu Yue's explanation, Ah Fu did not show any surprise, this situation had long been expected by them, such a high elimination rate in the survival trial would naturally be reflected in all aspects, and it was also a routine situation that food was difficult to obtain.

After thinking about it, Ah Fu patted the squirrel on his side with his palm, and the squirrel that had been puppeted immediately understood, and immediately jumped out of the tree hole, and after a while, the squirrel returned again, carrying a large number of mushrooms in his arms, and released the closed forelimbs, and the mushrooms were suddenly scattered and piled up into a small mountain.

"Master, these are the foods that squirrels store on weekdays, see if you can eat them."

"Okay."

Seeing the mushroom hill rolling to the ground, Xu Yue's eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward to choose.

Squirrels have always had a good habit of storing food, but now the mysterious island should be in summer, so the types of food stored are not nuts that ripen in autumn, but the most common mushrooms.

Like the other vegetation on the Mysterious Island, these mushrooms are unusually large, and after selecting a few familiar species, Xu Yue simply roasted them with a flame, and quickly turned the mushrooms into white quality food.

By checking the information of the item, although most of the mushrooms still contain trace amounts of mysterious factors and are inedible, some mushrooms are abnormally clean and not contaminated by mysterious factors, which belongs to the type that can be eaten normally.

So, with mushrooms and a small amount of food in the backpack, Xu Yue and Ah Fu used their first meal on the mysterious island in the tree cave, but fortunately, there was a large amount of water in the Qiankun gourd, so that in addition to food, they didn't have to worry about the lack of drinking water for the time being.

After eating and drinking, the two did not fall asleep at the same time, but spent the first night by taking turns keeping vigil, camouflage canvas has no protective function, and on this island, there is no room for carelessness.

The next day, early in the morning.

The pale golden sunlight sprinkled from the entrance of the cave, dispelling the darkness in the tree hole along with a faint chill, and Xu Yue'an, who had already put away the two auxiliary props, sat at the entrance of the cave and quietly looked at the red sun rising in the sky.

[The remaining survival time is 227 hours, and the number of survivors is 412.] 】

Suddenly, the announcement of the paradise appeared in front of him, and after seeing the content clearly, Xu Yue's face was solemn, but only 12 hours had passed, and nearly one-fifth of the contractors had died.

"Ah Fu, you're ready to go."

"Yes, sir."

Behind him came the sound of Ah Fu answering, and he was riding the huge red-brown squirrel out of the hollow of the tree.

On each side of the squirrel is a package formed of leaves, which is wrapped in roast bird legs that were not eaten yesterday and some mushrooms that do not contain mysterious factors, and the most important material backpack is kept by Ah Fu.

He deliberately left this squirrel before, just to puppet it and use it as Ah Fu's mount, the opponent's agility attribute of up to 37 points, coupled with his strong jumping and climbing ability, can completely carry Ah Fu to keep up with Xu Yue's progress.

When the two of them gathered all the supplies and were about to set off, there was a sudden rumbling sound under them, Xu Yue lowered his eyes, and saw that on the ground below, a black-brown ball several meters high was rolling, and behind it was a giant beetle pushing the ball forward.

Seeing this, Xu Yue's face sank, and what he was most worried about had happened, this mysterious factor not only worked on animals and plants, but also insects.

The Visible Eye in his belt bag flew to the ground of its own accord, and a moment later, a large piece of information appeared before his eyes.
