Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Night falls.

Chen Wen closes his eyes, seemingly already asleep.

He faces the bonfire, looking across at Gaston.

But Gaston is restless, tossing and turning, finding it hard to sleep.

He didn't expect Chen Wen to be so... at ease, or perhaps belittling him.

After dealing with Char, not only did Chen Wen refrain from acting, but he slept soundly in front of Gaston.

Should I make a move?

Eliminate Chen Wen?

Gaston couldn't help but ponder.

He slowly sat up, staring at Chen Wen's face, hesitating.

After a day of cooperation, Gaston was well aware of Chen Wen's strength.

Chen Wen is definitely capable of reaching the final stage of the championship battle!

Moreover, it's tough to eliminate Chen Wen alone!

During the ambush of Char, Gaston realized this.

Chen Wen's speed is incredibly fast!

He's as agile as a beast!

This is truly a major threat!

Gaston sat up.

He stared directly at Chen Wen's closed eyes, undecided in his heart.

Should I make a move?

If I act now, I can definitely take advantage!

Assuming Chen Wen is really asleep.

Gaston remained motionless, continuing to listen to the faint crackle of the bonfire and the surrounding insects' chirping.

And Chen Wen's even breathing.

He is definitely asleep!

Gaston convinced himself: Make a move now, and you can definitely control Chen Wen!

No matter if he has the satellite phone on him or in the shelter, you can find it, and eliminate him!

Then you can get ten thousand US Dollars! Plus a large amount of food, and props!

And you can eliminate a beast!

Beneficial to your survival ahead!

What's there to hesitate about? Gaston?

When did you become like a girl?

Gaston suddenly opened his eyes and slowly stood up.

...

Many people won't sleep tonight.

Assistants gathered around computer screens, watching the scene unfold.

"Gaston is going to make a move! It's a betrayal!"

Gina's assistant exclaimed with excitement.

After witnessing Chen Wen's ambush on Char, everyone suddenly understood a rule.

One-on-one, no one is a match for this Asian kid!

His agility allows him to react to rattlesnake attacks!

His stamina lets him travel continuously in the desert under the scorching sun!

His strength makes an adult Black man lose the ability to resist instantly!

He's too strong!

Every contender, upon encountering Chen Wen, only has one thing to ponder: how to escape!

Chen Wen has become the sole boss of this deadly battle!

Now, Gaston has the ability to solve this boss, will he act?

Jiang Chang, fighting sleepiness, looked at Chen Wen in front of her.

She too was worried.

Chen Wen is asleep.

If an attack occurs, Chen Wen will be at an absolute disadvantage.

Being eliminated now would be bad news!

Similarly, Gaston's assistant is worried.

She knew clearly: Chen Wen is definitely pretending to be asleep!

How could someone with a chance to compete for the championship fall asleep so easily?

Gaston, don't act!

If you act, we'll meet tonight.

...

Gaston stood up.

But to everyone's surprise, he didn't head toward Chen Wen.

Instead, he walked to the downwind side of the camp and relieved himself.

This left the assistants disappointed.

But Jiang Chang and Gaston's assistant both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Forget it, after this, go find Gina."

Gaston shook himself off, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

He didn't dare.

Didn't dare gamble on whether Chen Wen was really asleep.

Nor dared to act against Chen Wen alone.

At this moment, Gaston had a very clear plan for his survival ahead.

Gather resources, prepare to relocate, find Gina, unite with Adam, the three cooperate to eliminate Chen Wen.

Returning to the bonfire side.

Gaston was completely free of psychological burdens.

He confidently lay opposite Chen Wen and fell asleep.

...

This scene left many people a bit disappointed.

Chen Wen was among them.

As dawn approached.

With Gaston's snoring, the monitor fell asleep, and the assistants began to rest as well.

Chen Wen opened his eyes.

This guy didn't act after all.

Chen Wen muttered, feeling a little disappointed.

He didn't want to break the alliance first.

And he had no conflict with Gaston.

Chen Wen was torn about whether to act against Gaston.

So, he chose to let Gaston decide.

If Gaston acted.

When he approached, blocking the firelight in an instant.

Chen Wen would pull out the knife hidden in his jacket and eliminate Gaston.

Forget it, time to sleep.

Chen Wen stopped thinking, and also fell into deep sleep.

...

The next morning.

Chen Wen and Gaston chatted cheerfully, as if nothing had happened, and returned together.

The conditions on Char's side were mediocre, and his shelter was only half-finished.

Neither of them planned to stay long.

After extinguishing the bonfire and dismantling the shelter.

Chen Wen caught up with Gaston.

The two exchanged survival-related topics constantly on their way back, both gaining a lot.

Arriving at the cactus forest, Chen Wen smiled and said, "Shall we say goodbye here?"

"Say goodbye here, hope we have a chance to cooperate again."

Gaston nodded.

"Alright."

...

After parting ways, Chen Wen returned to his shelter.

As night approached, Chen Wen reignited the bonfire, announcing his return.

Above the giant column.

The screech owl poked out of its nest, tilting its head to look at Chen Wen.

This little guy seems to want to occupy this giant column.

Chen Wen shook his head, intending to crawl into the shelter for some rest.

After a day of travel, he was quite exhausted.

But as Chen Wen turned around, a strange cluster of creatures on the main beam of the shelter caught his attention.

They were small birds, about the size of sparrows.

Yet their shape was quite different from sparrows.

These birds have black stripes on their bodies, soft feathers, looking quite pettable.

Chen Wen couldn't immediately identify what kind of bird they were.

However, he felt these birds resemble Arizona's state bird—the Cactus Wren.

A rather tongue-twisting name.

This seems to be a family of four, huddled together on the main beam of Chen Wen's shelter, curiously observing him.

Chen Wen was a bit baffled.

Since when did he become so favored by birds?

No, there's an entry for it.

Chen Wen suddenly recalled the "Bird Affinity" provided by the Yellow Cave Owl.

Looking at the "Bird Affinity" again, Chen Wen understood.

This trait makes him likable to birds, plus friendly, he might just seem like a fellow to them.

The screech owl moved next to him effortlessly.

And his shelter seems to invite other birds to inhabit it too, which is a noticeable characteristic of the Yellow Cave Owl.

Each year, after changing nests, the old nests become contested spots for other birds.

Meaning, in many birds' eyes.

Chen Wen resembles a gigantic and unfamiliar bird, and his shelter is a giant bird's nest.

Understanding this, Chen Wen cursed under his breath as absurd.

As long as he's here surviving, his shelter will endlessly attract birds to him.

Though it can alleviate food pressure to some extent, there's no way to explain this!

Let's see where it takes me.

Chen Wen shook his head and crawled into the shelter.
