Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 173: Flying Giant Beast

(This Chapter is Chapter 173, Flying Giant Beast. Previously there was an update error, now correcting the content.)

He saw a massive figure fly across the sky, completely overturning his understanding.

Winged Dragon?

Xu Yi estimated that the wingspan would be five to six meters, or even longer.

Lu Ke, seeing Xu Yi’s reaction, couldn’t help but look up.

Then, she saw a shadow gliding by.

"Xu, Xu Yi, just now, was it that...?" Lu Ke had no idea how to describe her feelings.

"The animals of this world are really... primitive." Xu Yi felt that he and Lu Ke had come to a place reminiscent of the Jurassic era.

On Earth, there are no such massive Flying Giant Beasts anymore.

Undoubtedly, such a large creature must be carnivorous; relying on eating plants isn’t very likely.

Previously, Xu Yi thought the sky was very safe.

Only now did he realize how naive his thoughts were.

"There are more and more dangers, and our survival is becoming more and more difficult." Lu Ke didn’t know what to say. She thought the Fierce Beasts encountered at Su Yan and Yun Qing’s camp were already too much to handle, and now new threats were appearing in the sky.

Can they really hold on till the end?

"It’s getting more interesting; this planet is not simple." Xu Yi shifted his gaze back and glanced at his machete.

Now, more and more native animals are appearing.

Perhaps those wolves, sheep, rabbits, and the like are all outsiders.

Bone Wolves, Tree Sheep, Steel-Clawed Earth Wolves are the native animals.

Perhaps it was because their strength was too weak at first, so most of the creatures they encountered were from Earth.

But as their power continuously grew, more native animals appeared.

In this case, they should have the ability to kill these animals. Otherwise, the organizers would not let them appear.

Now, Xu Yi became more interested in the organizers’ intentions.

Perhaps they aren’t just looking for a show.

Maybe they are conducting some research.

Beyond the island, perhaps they haven’t even ventured.

"What exactly did Xu Yi and the others see? Why does Loli Ke look so terrified?"

"It’s driving me nuts; quick, tell us what it is."

"Are they looking at the sky? Maybe it’s some gigantic bird."

"A big bird is alright, but if it’s an animal like a Winged Dragon, that would be deadly."

"Winged Dragon, damn, if it attacks from the air, they’re done for."

"Done for? Xu Yi and the rest have faced so much danger and still pulled through."

"I prefer watching them hunt, hurry up and go hunting tomorrow."

"At least give us a shot of what they’re seeing, it’s killing me with suspense."

After Lu Ke and Xu Yi couldn’t see that creature anymore, they withdrew their gazes.

"Dear viewers, Lu Ke and I just saw a creature similar to a Winged Dragon, can you believe it? Unfortunately, we couldn’t let you see its figure this time. If there’s a chance next time, we’ll let you have a look," said Xu Yi, knowing the viewers watching his live broadcast must be very curious about what he and Lu Ke were looking at.

"At present, it doesn’t seem to intend to attack us. Or perhaps it hasn’t discovered us. So, Lu Ke and I are still safe for now," Xu Yi continued, then he untied a bundle of flax, preparing to start stripping the flax fibers.

Lu Ke still needed to make paper, probably working on it till eight or nine in the evening.

The viewers, upon hearing Xu Yi’s explanation, were all shocked; the barrage went silent for a moment.

"A Flying Beast resembling a Winged Dragon, now that wouldn’t be a friendly creature."

"You can’t possibly expect them to be herbivores, right?"

"Not many birds are carnivorous, and the larger they are, the more ferocious they tend to be."

They seemed even more terrified than Xu Yi and Lu Ke.

After a while, Xu Yi and Lu Ke, as if nothing had happened, went on with their respective tasks.

As long as it doesn’t come to attack them, being afraid is meaningless. After all, they know they exist, just peacefully accepting their existence is fine.

The Fierce Beasts by the lake hadn’t scared them off, and neither would the Flying Beasts.

"It’s so chilly. How does it start to get cold as soon as the sun sets?" Lu Ke stopped, walked up to the fire, and felt her hands and feet would freeze if she didn’t get close to the fire.

"Yeah, this weather is too irregular." Xu Yi added some firewood to the fire; the temperature had started dropping about half an hour ago and was falling rapidly.

Now, it’s probably just one or two degrees, a complete contrast to yesterday.

"Let’s make another fire over here, this way the back will be warm too." Xu Yi suggested, preparing to start another fire.

Wang Jin and Lu Yao had just returned to the camp, shivering from the cold. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"Sis, what’s with this ghost weather? It’s so cold, geez, it’s freezing." If it wasn’t for constantly moving, Wang Jin felt it would be even colder.

After all, during the day it felt like a scorching summer, but now it’s suddenly like winter. This stark contrast is too much for the body to handle.

Lu Yao had no idea why it was like this; the only thing she could do was to quickly get the fire going.

"If this continues, there’s no way to spend the night in the jungle." Wang Jin thought it might snow that night. If they stayed in the jungle overnight, they could freeze to death outside.

After all, their clothes were relatively thin, they could keep warmth but not protect against the cold.

With no clothes, people would freeze to death if the temperature went below 10 degrees.

At 0 degrees, if the clothes can’t keep their body temperature, they’d still freeze to death.

"Let’s hope this extreme weather only lasts a few days, otherwise we can’t go too far to hunt." Lu Yao warmed her hands over the fire, then pulled out an otter from her basket, which was today’s hunt, earning them a point.

Tonight, their meal would be it.

"If it stays like this, it will be troublesome, we need to sew the fur into clothes tonight. Otherwise, we’ll freeze to death in our sleep." Wang Jin rubbed her hands, saying a bit distressedly.

Originally, she wanted to save up enough fur to make a blanket and quilt. Now it seems she can’t wait and has to make clothes first.

"Yes, let’s sew the clothes first." Lu Yao agreed with Wang Jin’s plan; without wearing fur, they might not be able to work at night.

The evening time still needs to be used well, after all, the day is for hunting outside, if the nights aren’t used, everything would come to a halt.

"I’ll go fetch water; you can start skinning the otter." Lu Yao said to Wang Jin, then headed out with a bucket.

Wang Jin nodded; fetching water meant braving the cold outside, she’d rather stay by the fire to skin the otter.

After a while, Lu Yao returned.

But besides the bucket, she was holding something else in her hand.
