Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Chapter 1115: Chapter 134: Approaching Wind and Snow

Although it was a kind of halftime celebration, the few people didn’t think anything would go wrong.

Their food was abundant, the shelter was sturdy, and firewood was piled high. Even if they did nothing at all, they could safely survive the days ahead.

So after the toast, everyone started lunch.

Grilled moose, tasted pretty good.

To be precise, no matter what food it is, as long as it’s grilled over the fire and seasoned with spices, it tastes good.

Also, there were warm boiled moose innards, paired with hot soup. That taste was indescribably comforting!

The meal warmed everyone up, driving away the chill brought by the snow.

At the same time, Chen Wen also gained the moose entry.

[Four-Not-Like (Purple): At the start of each survival, randomly enhance your four abilities, but the enhancement effect is average. PS: You can actively perceive the specific abilities enhanced.]

This entry isn’t strong, but it’s interesting.

Randomly enhancing four abilities, that’s truly random.

Chen Wen felt it, now his enhanced abilities were balance, upper body strength, detoxification ability, and adaptation to hot environments.

You could say it’s useful, but not much.

If you really don’t know what entry to bring, you could use this one to try your luck.

Not thinking about the entries anymore, Chen Wen started enjoying this lunch.

After eating, everyone asked Chen Wen about the plans ahead.

Chen Wen thought about it and decided to process the food first, and find some places to store it.

Since the temperature had officially dropped to around minus ten degrees, no need to worry about food spoiling outside.

The meat could completely be frozen and consumed later.

Other than that, it’s about improving the quality of life and enjoying the survival days ahead.

Hearing Chen Wen’s words, everyone was a bit enlightened.

Since when did the most important survival task become improving the quality of life?

Everyone previously struggled with hunger and fullness, barely making it to the later stages.

Chen Wen couldn’t help but feel greatly.

This time the survival was special, plus the luck was good, leading to the current situation.

He clapped his hands, signaling that everyone could rest now.

Chen Wen took some still-burning firewood, went into the shelter to put it in the fireplace, added some wood, and planned on taking a warm nap.

…

Outside.

Hua Yun and the others waited for a while, then followed Chen Wen’s example, and went into the shelter planning to take a nap.

The camp of six people suddenly became empty and silent.

This amazed the monitoring staff in the control room.

“Is this the first time a team is taking a nap together?”

“Indeed, it is. To be precise, rarely do teams take naps, for daylight time is precious, especially in winter.”

“But this is their capital, look at that piled food and the active beasts around the camp, now there really isn’t anything that can threaten them, right?”

“I think we should just give them the medal, so we can clock off early!”

Hearing the last staff member’s words, everyone laughed.

At this moment, Oleg, who had left for over two days, suddenly pushed the door and came in.

He glanced at the relaxed staff who were chatting but didn’t say much.

“Vice President, here’s the log for the past few days.”

A staff member responsible for staying behind immediately came up to him, and Oleg nodded.

He glanced at the log and said, “Two teams forfeited these past couple of days, and the people have been retrieved. Now it seems only Chen Wen’s team and Lee Min-jun’s team, which already lost three people, are left.”

The staff nodded: “Yes, but looking at the situation, Lee Min-jun’s team might barely pass, though they’ll have to brave the snow to find food, while Chen Wen’s team here…”

The staff spoke, and couldn’t help but shake their head.

The situation here isn’t quite right, he actually had a suggestion he wanted to put forth, which was to consider them as having passed.

But seeing Oleg’s stern expression.

This suggestion he swallowed back into his stomach.

Oleg looked at the screen and said, “No need to worry about Chen Wen’s side, they should be fine. You need to keep a closer eye on Lee Min-jun’s side, I just got back from the association which received information from the meteorological department.”

Oleg said, “The next week, temperatures will drop rapidly to about negative thirty degrees Celsius. This change of nearly twenty degrees will affect the contestants, and if the shelter runs into any unexpected situations, they might be caught cold.”

“Additionally, a week later, the area where the contestants survive is very likely to experience a large-scale snowstorm lasting up to five days, so preparations should be made.”

Oleg finished with a sigh: “Snowstorms always make people feel dangerous!”

In response, the staff said: “That’s right, back when the president was completing the Forest Extreme Challenge, the early stages went smoothly, but later, nearly got overturned by a snowstorm, and the president paid a price because of it.”

Oleg nodded slightly.

Their president was exposed in the snowstorm for a long time, leading to respiratory troubles.

Subsequent challenges were also seriously affected due to respiratory issues.

Especially the Cold Pole Challenge.

“Forget it, I’ll personally keep an eye on it.”

Oleg changed his mind: “This snowstorm, according to meteorological department predictions, will be quite large, I’ll feel more at ease watching it myself.”

The staff member’s expression became a bit grave after hearing this: Is it really this serious?

Looking at the contestant camp on the screen, the staff sighed gently.

At this time, the help they could provide to the contestants was limited.

…

On Chen Wen’s side.

After taking a nap, he went to find Wuwu and the White Lynx again.

These two had a stubborn streak in them.

This game of sniffing each other out was still ongoing when Chen Wen arrived.

Chen Wen called a halt, and asked about the situation.

Wuwu said a bit disappointedly: “Out of fifteen matches, I only won three.”

The lynx said proudly, “Three wins are already pretty good. If it were switched to my kin, they wouldn’t even win one match!”

Chen Wen didn’t refute, after all, lynxes were certified by the system to be exceptionally skilled hunters.

Its abilities were beyond doubt.

In the afternoon, Chen Wen mainly trained Wuwu to mask its scent and utilize things to cover its scent — for example, crushing pine needles to use the juice to cover, finding strongly fragrant plants to conceal, and so on.

Regarding these, Wuwu learned quickly.

It was like a dry sponge suddenly falling into a sea of knowledge, frantically absorbing everything Chen Wen taught.

After roughly one afternoon, it had learned a lot, but Chen Wen proactively stopped it from continuing to learn.

Chen Wen said, “Too much to chew, you must think about everything you learned today throughout this afternoon and evening, best is to summarize it, then we’ll continue tomorrow. Later, I’ll bring you some food, there’s no need for you to worry about hunting these days, I’ll provide it.”

Wuwu nodded.

It was indeed not very adept at hunting right now; the old, weak, sick, and injured were manageable, but against normal individuals, it was helpless.

Chen Wen went back, soon brought some meat, letting Wuwu feast to fullness.

This made Chen Wen quite curious, had Wuwu changed its habits?

Wuwu thought for a bit and repeated what King Kong had taught.

Chen Wen nodded, this time King Kong was quite reliable.
