Just as Xu Yue had established the direction of progress and was about to descend, his movements suddenly paused, and an engine roar seemed to sound from far and near in the sky.

He looked up and saw a familiar shuttle speeding towards the top of the island from a distance.

"Airdrop?"

Seeing this, a term quickly appeared in his mind, and he quickly guessed the purpose of this shuttle.

Airdrop, equivalent to the survival reward given by the park to the trialist, every once in a while, the adjudicator will randomly drop from the top of the field, whether you can get it depends on strength and luck, which is also one of the hidden rules of the survival trial.

There are many types of items included in the airdrop rewards, from food and water, recovery medicines, to various items to enhance combat power, and powerful equipment, all of which may be included, just like opening a blind box.

And the level of the airdrop box increases with the survival time, generally speaking, the further the survival time, the more precious its reward quality is, and now it is just the beginning of the third day, and the airdrop quality at this time should only be green and blue quality, which is not too rare.

But for the contractors who were now scarce of anything, any supplies were precious, and the moment the engine roared in the sky, almost all the contractors invariably stopped, and their eyes full of longing reached up, staring at the shuttle that was approaching overhead.

Xu Yue was naturally no exception, his food and recovery potion reserves were seriously insufficient, if it weren't for the inability to enter the high-altitude area, he would have been eager to fly directly into the sky, and then closely follow the flying ship.

After the airdrop falls, he can preemptively cut it in mid-air, and then he can completely take all the airdrop rewards.

Unfortunately, the presence of a flock of starlings made his seductive idea come to naught, and as long as he dared to take off, the boiling starling frenzy would tear him apart first.

Sighing lightly, Xu Yue could only watch as the shuttle swept straight past the airspace above his head, and after flying out of a distance, a tiny blue meteorite descended from under the shuttle's body, smashing straight down from the sky.

And during the whole process, not a single starling flew out of the island to stop it, I don't know if it was because the shuttle was too high, or if there was something on the shuttle that frightened the starling, even if the roaring engine of the shuttle had crossed the island, it had not been attacked in any way.

In the middle of his thoughts, Xu Yue's mind suddenly appeared that the octopus-headed pilot with a huge body and a breath as deep as the abyssal sea, combined with all kinds of information on the mysterious island, a trace of realization flashed in his eyes, and it seemed that the possibility that the starling had not stopped it was most likely the latter.

And if his guess is correct, then there is a high probability that the civilization on this island will not be human.

The tumbling thoughts in his mind slowly subsided, Xu Yue raised his eyes to look at the direction where the blue meteorite fell, and after roughly estimating the distance, he shook his head regretfully, and then flapped his wings and fell from mid-air.

The combat boots landed, Xu Yue withdrew the wings behind his back, and Ah Fu's inquiry immediately sounded beside him.

"Master, are we going to fight for that airdrop?"

"It's too far away, it's not necessary, we have more important things."

After saying that, Xu Yue turned his head to look at the southwest position where green had appeared before.

"Let's go, target southwest."

"Yes."

Without asking too much, Ah Fu simply responded and then drove the hare to run quickly, closely following Xu Yue's pace.

The speed of one man and one rabbit continued to increase, bringing up a long stream of smoke and dust on the plain, spreading rapidly in the southwest direction.

……………

After running on the vast plain for more than two hours, Xu Yue, who was carrying Fang Tian's halberd, finally reached the edge of the plain, and behind him was Ah Fu, who was still riding a hare, but his expression was faintly distorted.

This hare's running speed is indeed extraordinary, even Xu Yue has to reach it with all his strength, but this guy's riding experience is quite poor, once he runs, the movements are extremely undulating, the bumps are abnormal, and after two hours of running, he feels that his hips are almost useless, and now he misses the squirrel before.

However, compared to comfort, it is more important to save his life, there are not a few predators encountered along the way, Xu Yue can kill all the way, and Ah Fu relies on the hare's unattainable speed and dexterous ability to change direction, and he has thrown off many hunters who attacked him along the way, and he doesn't even need Xu Yue's help at all.

With a swing of the halberd to shake off the blood stains on the top, Xu Yue summoned a large amount of golden red flames to circulate around his body, and after removing the residual smell of blood on the surface of his body, he raised his eyes to look ahead.

Not far away was a verdant forest, and when he arrived, he could clearly feel that the air around him was much moister, even if the sun was blazing overhead, the temperature near the forest was not hot, and a cool breeze blew from time to time.

After only a few preliminary observations, he could be sure that there must be a large water source in this dense forest, and it would not be too far away.

Retracting Fang Tian's painting halberd into his body, Xu Yue looked at Ah Fu, who was riding a hare on the side, and reminded:

"Be cautious and watch out for hares."

Ah Fu nodded knowingly, reached out and patted the head of the hare below, and suddenly the two long ears were instantly erected, and if you look closely, these two ears are still shaking slightly, deflecting from time to time.

This is the effect of the hare's 'keen perception' when it is fully activated, due to the mystery factor, the closer to the water source, the stronger the surrounding organisms, and the forest landscape is not as open as the plains, so it is natural to be more cautious.

Seeing that Ah Fu was ready, Xu Yue withdrew the halberd in his hand into his body, and with the force under his feet, he rushed into the dense forest in front of him, while Ah Fu manipulated the hare to follow closely behind.

However, the speed of the two of them was significantly slower than before, especially in Ah Fu, who was following behind, who was carefully adjusting the hare's speed and steering to avoid rushing too fast and crashing into tree trunks along the way.

The eyes of the hare are located on both sides of the head, and the distance between them is large, which makes it have a wide field of vision, but also a part of the blind spot in front of it, which requires the head to be deflected to see clearly.

Once the hare is in a state of rapid running, or some kind of panic escape, it is easy to hit the obstacle in front of it, which is fine in the vast plains, but when you step into the wooded forest landscape, this defect is quite fatal.

Therefore, Ah Fu must complete the adaptation with the hare as soon as possible to ensure that when it really faces a critical situation that needs to escape, there is no need to crash into a tree and fall down.
