Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 150: Life-and-Death Crisis

Suddenly, Xu Yi drew his dagger and lunged at the nearby bear.

The dagger stabbed into the bear’s neck, then sliced across.

Blood gushed out at once.

Then, Xu Yi withdrew his dagger and wiped it on the bear’s neck, before heading towards the Bone Wolf.

One stab into the Bone Wolf’s neck, a twist, and it was bled instantly.

As for the rabbits and mountain rats, Xu Yi did not take action.

These could be captured alive and didn’t need to be killed.

The bear and Bone Wolf were different, they couldn’t be kept, so they had to be killed.

"Lu Ke, wake up." Xu Yi reached Lu Ke’s side and gave her a firm shake.

"Ah, Xu Yi, what’s going on, how am I here?" Lu Ke looked around in surprise, then saw the bear and Bone Wolf lying on the ground, her eyes widened.

"We were drawn here by the flower. If we hadn’t suddenly awoken, we would have been starved to death like those rabbits and become its fertilizer." Saying this, Xu Yi rummaged through Lu Ke’s backpack and pulled out a thin flax rope.

After tying the legs of the rabbits and mountain rats, Xu Yi placed them in his basket, intending to bring them back and raise them.

"Watch out."

Xu Yi suddenly saw a vine-like tendril stretch out, immediately drawing his machete to slash at it.

Then, more and more vines appeared.

"Let’s go."

Xu Yi grabbed the basket and took Lu Ke’s hand, running away immediately.

After running ten meters or so, the vine tendrils had reached their limit.

"That flower is really poisonous?" Lu Ke asked in a state of shock, still finding it hard to believe such terrifying plants existed in this world.

"It should only affect our brains, stopping us from moving. I thought those dead animals starved, but it seems they were killed by those vines." Xu Yi watched warily, his mind racing.

If it weren’t for the system, he and Lu Ke would have certainly died here.

Being killed by a flower, Xu Yi felt that would be too unjust.

"Then, we’d better leave here quickly. It’s too terrifying when death sneaks up on you unawares." Lu Ke said with immense fear, as she had no idea how she ended up in front of the giant flower.

Dying without knowing how you died, without a chance to struggle, is a terrifying thought.

"No, we need to burn it. Otherwise, we might be drawn here again. This time we were lucky, we woke up. Next time, if we don’t, it will kill us." Xu Yi said seriously. This flower was too dangerous and had to be destroyed.

Otherwise, this area would be off-limits in the future.

Moreover, Xu Yi almost got taken down. How could he let that go?

So, burn it, it must be burned!

Besides, there are the bear and Bone Wolf corpses, they’re food, can’t just leave them, right?

"Let’s go, gather firewood with me." Saying this, Xu Yi walked away.

Lu Ke followed closely behind Xu Yi, picking up dry branches everywhere.

Soon, the two gathered several bundles of firewood.

"How do we set it on fire now, from such a distance?" After putting down a bundle of firewood, Lu Ke asked Xu Yi. Now, she was no longer as frightened and restless as before.

"Don’t worry, I have a jar of wolf oil here. After pouring it on, we can throw it over, then use flax rope and leaves to bundle a fireball, light it and throw it to ignite the oil-soaked firewood." Xu Yi explained, then took out a jar of wolf oil.

After pouring it over one of the bundles of firewood, Xu Yi managed to throw it over.

The throw was excellent, landing very close to the giant flower.

Having completed these tasks, Xu Yi began to make a fire.

Soon, the fire was burning.

Xu Yi lit the leaf ball and tossed it out.

"Success!" Lu Ke shouted from the side.

The flames sprang up, shooting up high.

Then, Xu Yi threw the remaining firewood over.

Worried they didn’t have enough, Xu Yi and Lu Ke gathered some more.

"Xu Yi, should we stay here, it’s already dark." Lu Ke said to Xu Yi, then walked towards the flames.

"No, no!" Xu Yi suddenly drew his dagger, pressing it against his palm.

"What’s wrong?" Lu Ke asked.

"Wolf oil, I couldn’t have taken it out." Xu Yi looked at Lu Ke. That jar of Bone Wolf oil was kept in his Storage Space.

The Storage Space couldn’t be used, he shouldn’t have taken out the wolf oil.

Also, it couldn’t possibly have gotten dark so quickly. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

And, Lu Ke should have wanted to leave, why would she want to stay?

So, Xu Yi stabbed his dagger into his palm.

"It’s fake, everything that just happened is fake. Xu Yi, wake up, quickly, wake up!"

"Ah!"

Xu Yi shouted, smelling a strange fragrance.

Awoke.

He looked around and found himself still standing next to the giant flower.

There were vines wrapped around his feet.

Lu Ke was right next to him, her eyes closed, face smiling, as if having a beautiful dream.

Xu Yi pulled out his machete and chopped the vines off his legs.

Instantly, countless vines lunged at Xu Yi.

Without a second thought, Xu Yi slashed at the giant flower’s root.

With one cut, Xu Yi sliced the flower off.

Then, Xu Yi severed the vines binding himself.

Once his legs were free, Xu Yi cut the vines off Lu Ke and scooped her up, running out.

After running ten meters or so, Xu Yi glanced back.

The bear and Bone Wolf were already covered by those vines.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Yi walked a few more meters, then found an ideal angle. Next, he took off his Hunting Bow and aimed at the bear.

"Swoosh."

At less than eight meters, for Xu Yi, hitting precisely was almost guaranteed.

The wooden arrow shot directly into the bear’s eye.

"Killed a bear, gained 10 points."

Xu Yi smiled, it wasn’t an illusion; he really had cut down the giant flower and killed the bear.

Next, Xu Yi found another angle and aimed at the Bone Wolf.

The second arrow also smoothly entered the Bone Wolf’s eye socket and pierced its brain.

After all, the Bone Wolf and bear were intoxicated by the scent and unable to move, becoming perfect targets for Xu Yi.

If he couldn’t shoot them, his archery skills would have been for nothing.

"Killed a Bone Wolf, gained 6 points."
