Chapter 2837 The mysterious man
Wilderness survival, one hundred days mission deadline.
In the blink of an eye, a month and thirty days passed.
Everyone began to adapt to the difficulty.
Indeed, it is difficult at the beginning.
Wait until housing, fuel, food and water are basically solved.
The thing that people spend the most time on is food.
And collecting food doesn't take too much time.
It’s not that the food collected by everyone is enough, but the maximum distance they can walk is limited, because no matter how much time they spend, the upper limit is just that.
The rest of the time is nothing more than playing cards and resting.
They are modern people after all, and as long as the environment is not so harsh, it is just the environment in which human beings have lived in history.
After paying the price of dozens of casualties, they successfully completed the transformation.
The house is a two-story simple wooden house, rather crude, but it can last for another half a year.
Food is mainly obtained through gathering, trapping, hunting... and mushroom farming, which is of course a very slow process.
In fact, only one in ten people can maintain their weight.
Everyone else is burning fat and can only get the minimum nutritional maintenance.
After one hundred days, you must supplement nutrition to stay alive, otherwise you will die from malnutrition.
Obtaining food is still quite troublesome.
After all, a group of hundreds of people was too large for an ancient hunting and gathering tribe.
They must be divided into at least a dozen tribes, each with dozens of people, and each tribe occupies a piece of land. Only in this way can they maintain consumption.
Only year-round farming can provide a large enough community.
this day.
Just because of the food issue, some people think it's time to separate.
Number One said, "Now the team should be divided into five groups and sent out to open a branch base."
"Well, I agree. Let's do it." Number Two nodded.
Soon the team dispersed.
At the beginning, the other four teams were required to pay 10% of the profits as a return on their investment.
After all, if you want to open a branch base, you need to invest in the main base, including food, water, wood, and even labor.
Ten days later.
As expected, the four groups that dispersed felt that they had grown stronger.
They began to delay paying tribute, reducing it at first and then doing it perfunctorily.
And finally I just didn't give it.
"Haha, that's human nature." Number One didn't care about it at all.
"Yes, without the constraints of being around, and without constant communication and common beliefs, they will soon feel dissatisfied with the loss of their interests. Even if it is only 10%, they will feel unwilling." Number Two nodded.
"That's right. This is also the reason why most people who do business together will eventually become enemies, especially when one party provides the money and the other party provides the manpower. The party that provides the money often ends up in trouble." Number Three followed.
Vincent shook his head and said, "Don't worry about them. I feel like the difficulty will increase soon."
A prophecy.
……
Second month.
first day.
Just when people thought it was just another ordinary day, they finished their meal and prepared to take a nap. After waking up, they played cards and then went to eat again.
Suddenly, the sky and the earth darkened.
It was like a summer storm coming on suddenly.
The darkness was so overwhelming and thick that it made people feel as if the devil was about to appear in the sky.
A demon actually appeared.
A shirtless man appeared above the forest.
He glanced around indifferently.
"hungry."
"Want to eat."
“There’s plenty of food here.”
He flew straight down.
He looked towards a survival base.
Many wooden houses have just been built there, and it is also a newly opened place for survival.
It was also one of the bases that betrayed the veterans and refused to pay tribute to the veterans' old team.
And at this time.
Everyone just felt a chill on their backs.
Because they felt something was scanning them.
It's like a tiger is watching, but it's a hundred times more powerful than a tiger!
They have no idea how powerful the enemy is now.
They don't even know how many enemies there are.
Until the naked man appeared.
"Someone is flying?" an old man asked in horror.
Everyone immediately looked up at the naked strong man, and they were all shocked.
"Is there any extraordinary power here?" someone asked in surprise.
Some people even want to come forward and become his disciple...
The naked man looked at the old man, frowned in disgust, and then reached out to grab a middle-aged man.
Then he opened his mouth and bit the other person's head.
Then the middle-aged man felt extremely tired all over.
"What are you doing, let me go!" he shouted subconsciously.
Then someone said in horror:
"You, your hair has turned white!"
In the eyes of others, the middle-aged man was visibly becoming increasingly haggard and aged!
The naked strong man showed a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
"The other party is eating something strange, perhaps some mysterious substance?" someone whispered.
After all, we are modern people and are not numb.
Even in this atmosphere of fear, some people are thinking quickly.
"Maybe it ate his life force, or the mysterious 'qi and blood' that are invisible and intangible yet exist in reality." Someone else said in horror.
"Actually, to be more specific, what we eat is its cell vitality and the number of cell divisions, right?"
Nature has set valves for life.
As soon as life is born, it has a lifespan.
As the entire system gradually gets going, it will collapse after a certain period of time.
Everyone saw and heard it clearly.
Their fear was magnified to the extreme.
Some people immediately ran around.
But the naked strong man just stretched out his hand and everyone was unable to move.
They can only allow themselves to be hunted by the other party!
These people who wanted to be independent and betrayal, they finally began to get scared.
Only then did they realize that their bowl of water was still very shallow.
They thought they could solve their own survival problems and stopped paying tribute to the headquarters.
Because they had enough food.
People are always so short-sighted.
"We are so stupid, really. We thought this place was just an ordinary forest trial, but we didn't expect such a powerful monster to appear..." Someone murmured in fear.
To everyone’s horror, the naked strong man ate half of the people in the survival base.
Half of the people quickly became old people in their seventies or eighties.
Fortunately for everyone, he left again soon.
"Go find the seniors!"
"They definitely know what to do!"
After regaining their freedom of movement, everyone immediately ran towards the old base in panic.
And the naked strong man went to the next survival base.
Similarly, eat half of the people.
So again and again.
After all, they are modern people, and they quickly drew conclusions from this pattern.
"Damn it, this monster is intelligent!"
"Nonsense, he's just a human!"
"Did you see it? He can eat up people's vitality or their time. After eating, people will age rapidly!"
"But he didn't just eat up all the people. It's obvious that he intends to make the people here sustainable!"
"Yeah, so he can keep eating!"
“It’s absolutely abominable!”
……
And at this time.
The naked strong man is devouring the people in the fourth survival base.
Someone begged for mercy tremblingly:
"Goddess, Goddess, spare my life!"
"God, spare my life!"
Many people were kneeling on the ground begging the other party to let them go.
The naked strong man finally spoke to these people.
"Immortal, haha, I'm not one." "You're not human either."
"I am the wolf and you are the sheep, it's that simple."
Everyone was suddenly terrified to the extreme.
They wanted to escape secretly and protect others in front of them.
However, it is simply not possible.
Because of their bodies, they lost the ability to move.
It was like being frightened stiff before a terrifying beast.
Of course, they had no idea how powerful the other party was.
Even running away would be of no use.
The eyes of a naked strong man can see thousands of miles away.
No matter how hard these people run, they can't escape.
This is exactly why the people in the previous bases resumed their operations.
The naked strong man just didn't want them to starve to death.
If everyone knew this, they would only have one thought: He really is like that, I am crying my ass off.
They will find themselves trapped in the entire forest.
As the naked strong man took over one base after another, he was only one branch base away from the old headquarters base.
But he was in no hurry.
He just ate them one by one slowly.
Just like eating beef.
Such a slow forcing makes people even more terrified.
One after another, they rushed towards the old base.
Some people were smart and chose to run out of the forest.
He seemed to enjoy the feeling.
……
Everyone who was running away was filled with regret.
They should not have betrayed the seniors, and if they flee to the seniors now, they may not necessarily be given protection.
Their water is still too shallow.
Just like Xiao Duozi.
In their opinion, the experienced ones would definitely know how to deal with this kind of monster.
They were so stupid. They thought they had mastered some survival skills and quickly left the seniors.
They wanted to enjoy themselves, but they didn't expect that there was a bigger threat.
When faced with a tiger, they have ways to drive it away, or even beat it to death collectively with sticks.
But in front of this naked strong man, they had no thought of resisting at all.
It's like a single person encountering a huge tiger.
It's still at the level of a saber-toothed tiger.
He knew instinctively from his size that there was no way to resist.
……
The naked strong man arrived at the last sub-base.
He said a few more words.
"Well, not bad, not bad."
"You guys are enough to feed me for two meals."
He stretched out his hand, grabbed some things from the void above everyone's heads, and started eating.
But as he was eating, he felt depressed again.
"It doesn't taste good, it doesn't taste good."
"You guys are all too old at heart."
“It’s so dirty.”
"What a shame, they all taste the same, all the taste of worldly affairs."
No one dared to speak.
And after eating, this mysterious man did not go to the old base of the seniors.
Instead, he lay on the treetop and slept.
He was snoring like a normal person.
Everyone at this disciplinary base found themselves able to move again.
At this time someone whispered:
"We can't let him eat any more."
"If we eat any more, we will all die."
And there was one person who seemed to be frightened mad, yet seemed to have great courage.
He picked up a stone knife he had sharpened and chopped the man hard.
"Die, die!"
"It must be an illusion!"
"As long as I am brave enough, I will find that tigers are just like that. As long as there are enough people and as long as they dare to kill them, tigers will become extinct!"
Everyone felt a glimmer of hope.
However, what left them speechless was that the knife shattered directly.
The stone knife hit the opponent like it was hitting a thick tank.
The man didn't even wake up, he just turned over and continued to sleep.
"Win the monkey king, lose the monkey dies."
This thought emerged in everyone's mind.
The brave man was also frightened, he dropped the knife and ran away.
He hadn't run a few steps before he fell down with a thud.
The whole person ages rapidly.
The state of being too old to move.
"He must have been too close, and the other person's breath directly absorbed his life force." Someone speculated.
……
More people ran towards where the seniors were.
And at this time.
Vincent and the other four were naturally discussing this matter.
"There's a monster outside."
"Yeah, actually it's not that strong."
"He's at most the ninth level of Qi Refining." No. 3 said helplessly.
"Looking at his body shape and the signs of his cultivation, he should be an evil cultivator who cultivates his body."
“Yes, but such a small evil cultivator can absolutely crush everyone in the wilderness survival.” Number One shook his head.
"He now has absolute violence at his disposal, and we need to find its weakness," said No. 2.
At this time, Vincent frowned and said:
"I have discovered a weakness: his strength is only temporary. He needs to absorb people's vitality to maintain his strength."
"As long as the people we brought with us die, he will lose his source of power, and we can outlast him."
"After all, he doesn't know that this is just an illusion. Only the five hundred of us are real."
"It's a pity that although our knowledge is much better than his, we are now forced to be restricted by him."
"A tiger falls flat and is bullied by a dog."
"Now it seems that the biggest boss is this guy."
"A physical cultivator appeared while surviving in the wilderness, and he is an evil one."
"This is such a bastard design!"
"We have to find an environment and method that can limit him. We can't kill him by ourselves."
At this time, number one, number two, and number three were actually very nervous.
Because the mysterious man who suddenly appeared could threaten their lives.
On the contrary, Vincent felt inexplicably that he was not panicked at all.
Because he always feels that he has a bigger backer behind him.
His confidence also made the three people suspicious.
"Are not you afraid?"
"That naked strong man can kill us easily."
"Haha, he is the one who should be afraid." Vincent smiled.
"That guy is fearless because he is ignorant. When he finds out that there is only enough food for 500 people, he will regret eating too fast before."
……
The naked strong man slept for seven days and seven nights. When he woke up, he looked towards the place where the crowd gathered.
……
The others now returned to the seniors.
Number One, Number Two, and Number Three all went into the defensive holes they had dug earlier...
Only Vincent was in charge.
"Now that you are back, you must first make up for the food you owe me."
"Otherwise, this place won't protect you."
When everyone heard this, instead of being dissatisfied, they were happy.
Because Vincent said that, it means they are not afraid of the monster.
Otherwise, why would they bother to collect the food?
