Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 85: Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

Xu Yi discovered the footprints left by the other party, made by four limbs, and the footprints were very large.

He estimated the size of the opponent, at least as large as a grown buffalo, or even bigger.

Maybe it was as big as an elephant, who knows.

In any case, it’s a very scary animal, a fearsome hunter.

Xu Yi only hoped it just passed by here and did not consider this its territory.

If not, Xu Yi could only take Lu Ke and leave here, to find another safe place to rebuild his camp.

A beast this size not only has incredible attack power, but its Defense Power would be very strong.

’Overlord’, that’s the name Xu Yi gave it.

Even though he hasn’t come face-to-face yet, Xu Yi already felt its terror.

He cut a bush, and Xu Yi turned over that pile of organs.

Actually, the only ones left were the stomach and intestines; the heart and liver, among others, were missing at the time.

"Three animals, two of them should be wolves, which encountered it while hunting wild deer," Xu Yi muttered to himself.

"Xu Yi is too brave, knowing there’s such a terrifying creature, he still went to check," Song Jia found it hard to watch the screen, afraid of suddenly facing a beast she hadn’t seen before, then pouncing on Xu Yi.

She herself had watched Xu Yi and Lu Ke’s livestream for some time, and still had great admiration for the handsome Xu Yi.

Today, while they were hosting the program, the director team found that an unknown beast seemed to appear in Xu Yi’s livestream room, so they cut to the main screen.

"Doctor, what do you think about this animal?" Sun Bei asked since the doctor has quite a reputation and knows more about alien matters than they do.

"I haven’t seen it, but I know from the footprints that this beast is not small. It’s necessary for Xu Yi to figure this out," Dr. Glasses knew there was a team of animal experts from around the world, they should also be paying attention to Chu Yi’s livestream room, and they should know more.

"It can directly snap a tree, the power is too terrifying. Such power on our bodies could directly shatter our bones," Sun Bei saw the doctor hadn’t said anything valuable, so he analyzed it himself.

He had encountered a black bear while filming, encountered tigers. But those had nothing on what appeared in Chu Yi’s livestream room.

He felt, if tigers and black bears encountered the ’Overlord’, they would likely just turn and run, and might not even get away.

"Such an animal shouldn’t appear in the wild, it could totally stand at the top of the food chain," Liu Yi said with concern; such an animal’s existence was bad news for any team.

"You can’t just say that such a powerful opponent shouldn’t exist, for the natural world, humans pose a bigger threat," the doctor rebutted, after all now there’s no animal humans can’t hunt.

If not for humans intentionally protecting them, 80% of animals might go extinct.

"For all challengers, this creature is extremely bad news, it’s not something they can handle right now. Even if they have a hunting rifle, they might not dare to provoke such a creature," Song Jia said with some worry, hoping these challengers could persist for 500 days.

Though she didn’t know what the organizer’s purpose was, she always felt missing this opportunity was a major loss for humanity.

Xu Yi didn’t think much of it, he looked around for a bit, then picked up the deer head on the ground.

He directly hacked off the antler, and put it in his backpack.

Antler is quite nourishing, encountering Xu Yi, how could he pass this up?

Though Xu Yi seemed worried, he wasn’t so scared as to quit the challenge.

He planned to tell Lu Ke about this matter when he returned.

After all, the existence of the Overlord is a potential threat. Therefore, Xu Yi felt it was necessary for Lu Ke to know about this lurking danger.

After 19 days together in the wilderness, Xu Yi knew Lu Ke wouldn’t give up easily.

days without any sign of illness indicated her brain cancer might truly be cured.

Even if it hadn’t been cured, it was suppressed, and wouldn’t affect her survival.

Thus, she should be very afraid to go back, worrying about a recurrence after returning.

Rain continued to fall.

Xu Yi glanced at the sky, then headed back the way he came.

Halfway back, Xu Yi suddenly saw a few wild chickens fighting in the rain.

Without a word, Xu Yi nocked arrows onto his bow, aiming at the wild chickens.

The arrow flew out, shooting at the wild chickens.

But it didn’t hit.

The wild chickens stopped fighting, cautiously looking around.

Xu Yi stayed motionless, like a wooden stake.

This is the effect of lurking, not easily discovered by animals.

The wild chickens glanced around, then seemed ready to continue fighting.

Seizing the opportunity, Xu Yi nocked the arrow again.

This time, Xu Yi was rather lucky, an arrow struck one of the wild chickens that collapsed instantly, its claws and wings flapping chaotically. The other chickens immediately scattered in all directions, fleeing.

Without a word, Xu Yi rushed out and grabbed the wild chicken.

The wild chicken wasn’t dead yet, so Xu Yi took some grass to tie up its legs, crossed its wings together, and placed it in the backpack.

"There’s actually a nest of eggs?" Seeing a nest of eggs, Xu Yi couldn’t help but grin and picked them up happily, carefully placing them in his satchel.

There’s a high chance these eggs have been fertilized, possibly hatching into chicks.

The chickens Xu Yi encountered today were wild chickens called junglefowl, from which domestic chickens were derived.

If they could really hatch chicks, then they could raise chickens.

Although the rain continued, Xu Yi’s mood improved significantly.

He found some dried grass to put in his satchel to prevent the eggs from getting cracked on the way back.

After that, Xu Yi walked quite steadily all the way.

Around 12:30, Xu Yi returned to the camp.

"Lu Ke, I’m back!" Xu Yi called out upon arriving at the door.

"Did you catch a prey?" Lu Ke recognized Xu Yi’s cheerful mood, happily running over to open the door for him.

"Yes, caught a big rooster, and found a nest of eggs," Xu Yi happily shared today’s harvest.

"Isn’t this the same as the chickens we have in the market? How come there are also these in the forest?" Seeing the already dead junglefowl in the basket, Lu Ke couldn’t help but ask.

"This is called junglefowl, the ancestor of domestic chickens, so it looks very similar. This one is quite fat, probably weighs 6 pounds, today we’ll have chicken soup and eat chicken meat." With that, Xu Yi pulled out the rooster.
