Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Chen Wen dusted off his hands and retreated back into the team.

Hua Yun discreetly gave Chen Wen a thumbs up: ”Impressive!”

”Just lucky.”

Chen Wen nodded and stood at the front of the team, observing the actions of the others.

Just like how the first person to hand in a test in college affects those who follow.

After Chen Wen was the first to complete the competition, everyone else unconsciously became quite flustered.

As Yoshikawa Feng became the second to complete his trap, he also urged the staff to release the mouse.

Yoshikawa Feng’s trap was meticulously crafted.

Not only was the completion level high, but he also specially built two mud walls to block the mouse’s path to either side.

Once the mouse landed, just as Yoshikawa Feng had planned, it panicked and ran forward along the path he had left open.

Perfect!

Yoshikawa Feng nearly shouted out.

But soon, the mouse stopped moving.

Being a member of the large rat family, the white mouse is also highly adaptable.

When first placed on the ground, it would certainly panic.

But once it adapted to its surroundings, it quickly calmed down.

And tentatively explored the path ahead.

At that moment, the mouse’s speed instantly slowed down a bit.

Without any bait ahead, the mouse naturally wouldn’t continue exploring forward.

It even showed faint signs of turning back.

Fortunately, the staff at the back gently tapped the box, creating a noise that sent the mouse into a panic again.

This time the mouse fell completely into the trap.

With a slight snap of wooden sticks, the mouse was lassoed around its head and lifted up.

Yoshikawa Feng succeeded.

But his speed and efficiency were visibly much worse than Chen Wen’s.

As for those who followed, they were even worse off, with some traps even failing.

After all, for the contestants, trap failure while setting traps in the wilderness isn’t an uncommon occurrence.

Finally, the three competitions ended.

With the exceptional performances of Hua Yun and Chen Wen, the Hua Country Team was the first to set out.

They were followed closely by the Japan Team.

The United States Team was ranked fifth.

After glancing at the rankings of the various national teams, Chen Wen was quite satisfied with the result.

At this moment, the vice president came to the front of the group.

He took a deep breath and said, ”The competition has ended, the teams from each country please depart in order according to the rankings!”

”Desert Extreme Challenge, officially begins!”

...

Starting point.

Chen Wen led the four Hua Country contestants to the front of the staff.

”Contestant Chen Wen, hello, please cooperate with us for the final check.”

Several staff members said as they checked the luggage of the five people.

After confirming that the items they carried were all reported, the staff said, ”You can now turn on the drones, set them to smart follow mode, and in the four major oases, we will pre-place batteries for you to switch.”

”These are the camels, each team gets six, we have purchased them from the indigenous tribes, you can dispose of them as you wish, but we still hope you cherish them.”

With that, the staff brought six large dromedary camels in front of everyone.

At the same time, the original owner of these dromedaries, an Australian local indigenous herder, said to everyone, ”These dromedaries have gentle dispositions and are very obedient, you can control them to advance or stop using bridles and commands, they have had their fill of water this morning, enough for you to reach the oasis.”

After speaking, the herder handed the reins to the group.

Chen Wen scanned them and casually picked a dromedary camel.

These dromedaries were not special animals, and they all appeared about the same.

No need to choose carefully.

The group mounted the camels and, under the herder’s blessing, set out on the first stage of the Desert Extreme Challenge—Great Sand Desert!

...

As soon as they entered the desert, Chen Wen squinted, letting the camel carry him forward.

Meanwhile, his mind sank into the system.

[Survival actively initiated by the inheritor, the surrounding area is a wilderness environment, cultivation begins!]

[Current wilderness cultivation location: Australian Inland Desert]

[Please choose the basic entry for this cultivation, if not selected you can directly withdraw]

[The self-limitation feature is now available, would you like to enable it?]

[Current inheritance points: 714 points]

714 points of survival points, I’ve never been this well-off in a battle!

Chen Wen’s lips curled up, and he immediately began selecting entries based on his prior considerations.

Since the last survival, the system upgrade unlocked three new features.

Chen Wen also informed the animals about the new features.

Thus, apart from the dead octopus and the Western Black-crowned Long-armed Ape that didn’t leave with Chen Wen,

the other animals chose to retract their entries and enter the transformation module.

So the animal friend entries that Chen Wen used to get for free can’t be selected anymore.

This time, even though he had an unusually high starting number of inheritance points, the spending is also high!

First, Chen Wen chose the new big three.

[Giant Strength], [Swift], [Big Stomach, No Need to Say More].

[Giant Strength] speaks for itself, this entry massively enhances Chen Wen’s strength.

Letting him possess the power to lift mountains with unmatched vigor!

It also adds effects for throwing spears.

As for [Swift].

[Nimble Posture] was given to the short-tailed weasel, so [Swift] remains the iconic speed entry.

Increases speed and enhances reaction time.

A must-have entry for travel and adventures!

[Big Stomach, No Need to Say More] replaced [Enhanced Digestion Ability] to become a member of the new big three.

This entry maximizes Chen Wen’s digestive and disease resistance capabilities.

If not being disgusted, he could even eat carrion!

But this entry has a negative effect in high temperatures, which is feeling hungrier sooner.

Chen Wen had previously tested it.

This increased hunger is roughly equivalent to needing to eat one or two hours earlier than usual.

There is an impact, but it’s not particularly significant.

After the new big three, Chen Wen specifically selected the desert trio—[Resilience], [Drought Tolerance], [Qualities of Cactus].

Respectively from the North American saguaro cactus, mesquite tree, and prickly pear cactus.

[Resilience] minimizes the impact of direct sunlight on Chen Wen.

With this entry, Chen Wen is almost impossible to get a sunburn.

[Drought Tolerance] allows Chen Wen to better endure thirst.

Enabling him to maintain normal physical ability even without drinking water for extended periods.

[Qualities of Cactus] is even more comprehensive, directly mitigating the adverse effects of arid, hot, and barren environments.

The effects of this entry are reduced water consumption, staying cooler, and increasing food nutrient conversion efficiency.

Simply put, with one sip of water Chen Wen can feel like he’s had two of someone else’s, one meal feels like two to others, and the same temperature feels cooler to him.

These three entries are designed specifically for the desert, allowing Chen Wen to be least affected by the desert environment.

The desert trio, incredibly powerful!
