Chapter 124 – 124: The Spectacled Cobra

“`

Inside the organizer’s camp, everyone was dazzled by Chen Yu’s leap.

The other three contestants were all carrying some simple equipment and parachutes.

Chen Yu, however, had brought nothing, which meant his wilderness survival was starting from scratch.

After arriving on the island, he started searching for some dry trees.

He picked up a thin branch and, with all his strength, fiercely struck it against the trunk of a tree.

A shower of sparks flew out, igniting the dry grass he had placed nearby.

This method of making fire by friction was also an eye-opener.

Such incredible arm strength was needed to light a fire in one go.

After briefly warming his clothes over the fire, Chen Yu stripped some bark from the trees and made a simple hammock, where he lay down with ease.

He had hurriedly taken a flight here last night and was called early in the morning to participate in the wilderness survival competition.

Even with his excellent physical condition, it was a bit too much to bear.

Furthermore, the island wasn’t very large, and it didn’t pose much danger, so it made sense to rest here for a day first.

It didn’t take long for Chen Yu to fall into a deep sleep.

Unaware of how much time had passed, he was awakened by a system notification in his mind.

“Congratulations host for completing a day’s business; since costs exceeded profits, there are no points accumulated.”

Before leaving, Chen Yu had given his phone to Tong Ya and had also shared his payment password with her.

After all, there might not be any signal on the wilderness survival site.

Even if there was, according to the competition rules, he wasn’t allowed to carry any electronic devices.

Chen Yu stretched lazily, jumped down from the tree bed, and ignited another fire.

Then he jumped into the sea and forcefully dragged up two large fish.

After a simple meal, Chen Yu put on his dried clothes and chopped down some nearby trees to make a simple raft.

Leisurely, he set off for the mainland.

The other three contestants weren’t having as easy a time as Chen Yu.

They only rested on the island for a short while before swimming straight for the mainland.

The wilderness survival competition had a specific destination, and the first to arrive would be declared the winner.

Once Chen Yu reached the shore, he didn’t stop for a moment and immediately began darting through the thicket of trees.

He was so fast that even the drones following him couldn’t keep up.

Having run for most of the night, not once did Chen Yu show signs of fatigue.

Just as he was about to find something to eat, he suddenly heard a scream not far away.

Chen Yu frowned, climbed up a tall tree to take a look, and indeed saw the flicker of a fire in that direction.

Without lingering, Chen Yu swung from one large tree to another and headed toward the fire.

The other three contestants were all there.

One of them was lying next to the fire, gritting his teeth in agony.

The three seemed to come from different countries, and their communication was extremely chaotic.

Yet all three appeared to be anxious.

Chen Yu took a quick look and realized that the injured contestant had been bitten by a venomous snake.

By the looks of the wound, it was likely a pit viper.

An injury from such a snake was difficult to heal unless one had antivenom.

At that moment, a large number of drones were hovering nearby, inquiring about the situation.

Compared to others’ panic, Chen Yu remained incredibly calm.

He told the drones he could handle it and then disappeared into the dense forest beside them.

Before long, Chen Yu returned with a bunch of herbs.
