Chapter 26: Bell’s Ship! Set Sail!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

With enough food and water, Bell was much faster.

All he had to do was build a bed before nightfall.

Compared to the other contestants, Bell seemed especially relaxed.

If he was hungry, he would eat the dried wild boar meat. If he was thirsty, he could drink boiled rainwater. 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

The other contestants were already losing their bearings from starvation.

Some even chose to withdraw from the competition.

Due to the decrease in contestants, the number of viewers in Bell’s live-stream increased.

On the sixth day, Bell finally found the main river.

Looking at the river in front of him, Bell smiled.

“Everyone, look what we’ve discovered! It’s a river. As long as we follow this river, this mission will be completed!”

Bell was slightly excited.

The people on the screen were also happy for Bell when they saw the river.

“Congratulations to the host for becoming the first successful contestant!”

“Heavens, I really didn’t expect such a young contestant to leave the forest in six days.”

“I suddenly feel bad for the other contestants.”

Seeing that Bell’s progress was so smooth, some viewers who had watched the other streamers could not help but compare.

But after comparing, they realized that there was no comparison at all.

Compared to Bell, the other contestants were too amateurish.

Bell was also a little happy. He looked around and finally chose the next course of action.

Bell said casually.

“Everyone, according to the normal method, we should follow the flow of the river. As long as we do this, we will definitely be able to leave the forest.”

“But walking is too much of a waste of time. I’m preparing to build a raft to sail across the river. It should let us leave the forest within a day.”

Bell began searching around.

The creation of the raft was not difficult with the tools he had now. He used the dagger to cut hemp ropes and the parachute that he had previously put in the bag.

As long as he gathered some raw materials, he could create a qualified raft and a sail.

“Our tools aren’t too good. We only have this dagger, so we can’t cut those thick trees.”

“But bamboo also can float. In that case, let’s use bamboo as a raft.”

Bell locked onto the target.

“I suddenly feel a little excited. The host is too fast. We haven’t seen enough yet.”

“Where is the host from? Why don’t we have a meal together?”

“Yeah, the host is so cute. Why don’t we hold a fan meeting?”

Seeing that Bell was about to complete the challenge, many people began to join in the fun.

Bell only smiled and said nothing.

He had to leave this place first.

Moreover, making a raft was not a simple task.

Bell was already familiar with chopping bamboo.

After all, almost every time he built a bed, he would choose bamboo. The main reason was that this material was easier to cut and was suitable to cut with his tools.

After chopping dozens of bamboo, Bell stopped.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to the audience.

“The rest is simple. If you’re interested in making the bamboo raft, you can take a look. The bamboo itself has a certain buoyancy.”

To be honest, he had stored the vines in his bag.

It could be used to tie the bamboo raft.

Bamboo was lined up side by side.

At the same time, Bell did not forget to stabilize every bamboo. In addition to the strengthening of the vines, the bamboo raft was relatively firm.

The parachute was used as a sail.

A simple sail raft was completed.

Looking at the raft, Bell nodded in satisfaction.

“This parachute is also one of the production team’s supplies. I wonder if using this thing will affect my results. It won’t be good if I’m judged to have violated the rules…”

Bell said half-jokingly.

“This is definitely a competition tool. If anyone asks why such modern technology appeared in the show, we will say that you picked it up.”

“No problem. Pick up what you lost.”

The female host in the broadcast room also heard Bell’s complaints.

As the number of contestants decreased and Bell was very close to success, this Wilderness Survival became Bell’s solo show.

Moreover, Bell could indeed bring them a large audience.

The production team had really grasped the secret to getting views.

Soon, under the gazes of everyone, Bell brought his bamboo raft to the river.

“Alright, it’s time to witness a miracle.”

Bell even deliberately kept the audience in suspense and moved the sail.

“Today is the first day of Bell’s Ship, set sail!”

He looked very energetic, stirring up the emotions of the audience.

“Wow, I’m suddenly looking forward to it. My blood is boiling.”

“Do you want my treasure? Go, I left everything there.”

“Nice anime quote!”

However, just as everyone thought that Bell would float down with the bamboo raft, the bamboo raft swayed and sank.

“???”

This caused a commotion.

“What’s going on? The Bell’s Ship has sunk before it can set off.”

“My youth is over!”

“Haha, it’s rare to see the host fail. Why does it feel so funny?”

Bell swam ashore with a depressed expression.

“Sigh, it was a bad start.”

Seeing Bell’s expression, the audience laughed.

Bell wrung out his clothes and thought for a moment.

“Oh, I remember now. These fresh bamboo have too much water content, so it can’t float properly. Let’s modify it a bit.”

Bell was busy again. He added dead branches and dried grass between the bamboo.

“Withered branches and dried grass also have the ability to float. As long as there are enough, they are not inferior to wood.”

“Let’s try again this time. It will definitely work!”

“Good luck, Bell!”

“All the best, we’ll hold a celebration party for you!”

Although there was a small mistake earlier, everyone believed that Bell would definitely succeed this time.

The boat entered the river and did not sink again.

Bell rode down the raft.

The civilized world was finally not as far away from him as before.
