Trembling At A High Altitude

"We have discussed that it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time." The next morning, Shan Yao found Li Teng.

"Um."

"Some werewolves escaped, and they might come back with other werewolves, such as more mages. If we were defeated again and forced into the woods behind, we would be dead. We discussed and decided to leave as soon as possible. Here, you might be able to find a safe place to live in the vast world outside." Shan Yao suggested to Li Teng.

"I agree with your proposal." Li Teng agreed simply, but there was a voice in his heart... the vast world outside? I'm afraid it's more dangerous than this forest, and you'll die faster after you get out.

However, everyone had no choice.

Such a large population has to eat a lot of food every day. There is no game in the woods, there is no more in the swamps, and the bark and leaves of the trees are extremely unpalatable and it is impossible to support these people.

To find a way to survive, you must venture into the vast world outside.

So Li Teng would not raise any objection.

After pushing the small cart in the forest camp, taking all the resources that could be found in the werewolf camp, and the few remaining rations, the team of more than a hundred people left the werewolf camp in a mighty manner.

Came to the vast world outside.

It is said that the world is vast, but it is not vast at all.

Still endless woods.

It's just that there is a road leading to the distance that was built or trodden by werewolves.

And this road seems to be full of dangers.

Who knows if it leads to another werewolf camp, or even a large werewolf military camp, town, etc.?

If we don't take this road, the terrain in the nearby woods is very complex, uneven, and there are deciduous shrubs and the like, making it impossible to move forward at all.

And there are no roads, which also means that the place you enter is more desolate and dangerous.

This scripted world is different from the anniversary King of Forces, and it’s not for them to come in and enjoy.

But let them survive hard.

If there are no difficulties, the script will actively create difficulties for them.

For Li Teng now, the biggest dilemma he faces is his appetite.

Drawing those runes and mastering magic gave him combat power far beyond that of other actors.

However, the huge consumption makes him quickly weak once he becomes hungry. He is even weaker than other actors and almost completely loses his combat effectiveness.

This makes his desire for a stable food source much stronger than other actors.

So even if Shan Yao doesn't propose to leave, he himself will leave.

If you stay in a place without food, you will starve to death.

After marching for more than two hours, the team temporarily stopped in an open space on the roadside.

Shan Yao arranged for several teams to go hunting.

Li Teng also led one of the teams, and Anna and Liu Hui followed this team.

An hour later, all the hunting teams returned to the temporary camp.

Everyone had a confused expression on their faces.

In the woods after coming out of the werewolf camp, there was actually no prey! Not even a rabbit could be found.

None of these trees bear fruit, and there are no edible wild vegetables on the ground.

This is really unreasonable and beyond everyone’s expectations.

Li Teng's team found a large bag of food.

It weighs more than ten kilograms.

After opening it, everyone took a few steps back, with extremely...complex expressions on their faces.

Some people are so regretful that they want to gouge out their own eyes.

I really regretted it for half a year after just one look. I might even have nightmares at night.

A large bag of all kinds of bugs was wrapped and rolled inside, which would make normal people feel sick to their stomachs.

In fact, Li Teng felt nauseated just looking at it.

But he lit a fire and cooked a pot of worm soup.

The smell of the cooking was really indescribable, and everyone stayed away.

Some people just accidentally smelled it in the air and started retching.

Under everyone's distant and disgusted gazes, Li Teng bit the bullet and ate all the more than ten kilograms of cooked worms.

It tastes really bad.

After eating, Li Teng felt sick.

Wherever he went, other people would subconsciously take a few steps away from him, as if they were worried that all the bugs in his stomach would suddenly come to life, spurt out of his body, and then crawl over to bite them.

Even Anna and Liu Hui began to dislike him, although they tried their best not to show it.

It was not like he had never seen Li Teng eating bugs when he was in the desert before.

But eating so much at one time is still a bit hard to accept.

…

After the hunting was over and after a short rest, Shan Yao urged the team to set off again.

They had to leave this dead forest as soon as possible, otherwise they would all be forced to eat bugs with Li Teng in the end.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as expected.

In the evening, when it was getting dark, the team was still in the woods.

No one knows how long this road is or what it looks like at the end.

Anyway, it feels like it’s endless.

After settling down, Shan Yao once again divided the people into groups and asked everyone to go hunting.

The hunting team was also given bags and an additional task.

If you really can't catch the prey, catch the bugs if you can.

Regardless of whether anyone eats it, at least it won't be wasted. The mage in the camp has a good appetite and is not picky about food. He can eat as much as he wants.

An hour later, when it was completely dark, the hunting team returned to the camp.

There is no prey.

So their time is spent catching bugs.

I caught more than a hundred kilograms of insects and came back. Then I helped set up the stove and started cooking them all.

Of course, once the bugs were poured into the pot of boiling water, they turned around and ran away.

"Try it. If you continue to be hungry, you won't have any fighting power." Li Teng ate while greeting the camp members who were watching from a distance.

After all, a dozen members who were too hungry came over, trying hard to overcome their discomfort and want to try the food.

Two people looked at the insect soup with a lot of foam and vomited on the spot.

In the end, only three people stayed with Li Teng.

Shan Yao is one of them.

"Actually, it's not that bad. Everyone can try it." Shan Yao stuffed a bug into his mouth and turned to the camp members. Although, his expression was very ugly.

"That worm in your mouth is still moving!" Someone reminded Shan Yao in horror.

Shan Yao quickly spat out the bugs in his mouth and even bounced off the stone he was sitting on.

"How could it still be moving? It has been boiled for ten minutes and it is already dead." Li Teng looked disapproving.

The feeling of being hungry was unpleasant, and slowly more people came over. Finally, more than a dozen people tried the feast of insects.
