"Xu Yi, do you think Group 102 can succeed?" Next to the campfire, Lu Ke asked Xu Yi while crafting a pottery jar.
Xu Yi blew away the wood chips in the holes and glanced at Lu Ke.
"The chances are quite high." Xu Yi believed that the death of two people would definitely have caught others’ attention. Those who accepted the task quickly must be confident in their own abilities.
Xu Yi dared, because he had the system.
His hearing, sll, and vision had all been enhanced.
Additionally, he enhanced agility, archery, and had practiced the Eighteen Forms of Body Strengthening for so many days.
Others didn’t have such a Golden Finger.
"If they don’t complete it, should we take on this task?" Lu Ke pondered as she looked at Xu Yi, pausing her work.
Failure could likely an death.
So, should she and Xu Yi take the risk too?
"Take it, tasks that are difficult to complete surely have great rewards." Xu Yi thought that since he had a system, there was no room for cowardice.
If they were scared now, how would they complete future tasks?
"Yes, the more rewards we get, the better our future will be." Lu Ke said earnestly.
"In any case, the more rewards we gain, the higher the chances of victory." Xu Yi continued to dig holes; this was the second bench already.
"I wonder if Wang Jin and Lu Yao have found their task target yet?" Lu Ke thought that if Lu Yao and Wang Jin could find that Steel-Clawed Earth Wolf, the likelihood of completing the task would be quite high.
After all, Lu Yao had already killed two, indicating they could handle it.
"With the night already upon us, they probably haven’t found it yet. This area is not small, so finding it won’t be easy." Xu Yi hoped Wang Jin and Lu Yao would find the task target and complete the task.
He had a favorable impression of Wang Jin and Lu Yao and naturally hoped they wouldn’t be eliminated.
"Who knows when we’ll have a new task? Only 25 days have passed, and there are just over 300 groups left. In 500 days, can anyone really persist?" Lu Ke pouted, considering there are still 25 days to reach a tenth of the ti.
"Thinking too much is useless; we just need to do our best." Xu Yi had pondered similar questions but felt that he still had a relatively good chance.
Lu Ke nodded and then focused on crafting the pottery jar.
The diater of this jar exceeded 50 centiters, marking Lu Ke’s first attempt at creating such a large pottery piece. It required more attention.
Xu Yi patiently chiseled the holes; he aid to finish the bench by night. Tomorrow, it could be placed in the house, raising the bed’s position.
In the forest, Lu Yao and Wang Jin sat before a fire, cooking a rabbit in a steel pot.
This rabbit was caught before nightfall. Otherwise, they would have to eat dried Steel-Clawed Earth Wolf at tonight.
"Sis, what if we can’t find that Steel-Clawed Earth Wolf?" Wang Jin stared at the rabbit at soup in the pot, worried that if they couldn’t complete the task, they would lose even the pot. How would they cook at broth or boil hot water later?
"Do your best, if you really can’t find it, there’s nothing you can do. Don’t worry, even if we lose these bows and arrows, we can survive as long as we don’t get discouraged or give up." Lu Yao said while sharpening a spear.
She planned to make more javelins, as there weren’t many other weapons available.
"Sis, don’t worry. I’ll definitely last until 100 days, then I’ll find a team. I refuse to believe that with my charm, Wang Jin can’t succeed in getting others to join us." As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves, looking ready to face any challenge.
Lu Yao glanced at Wang Jin and said, "The rabbit is cooked, you eat first."
Relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself.
As long as they were strong enough, there would be people wanting to cooperate with them.
"Sis, I’m full, you eat." After Wang Jin finished eating, she handed the steel pot and chopsticks to Lu Yao.
Then, Wang Jin added so firewood to the campfire and gripped her spear.
While Lu Yao began to eat, Wang Jin took on the responsibility of keeping watch.
After all, they were in the jungle, where danger could lurk anywhere.
Luckily, their luck seed good; no threats had appeared.
Before 10 PM, Wang Jin and Lu Yao climbed into their hammock and went to sleep.
After all, tomorrow morning, they would search for traces of the Steel-Clawed Earth Wolf, so they needed a good night’s rest for an early start.
A few kiloters away, Xu Yi was still diligently chiseling holes. This was the last one.
"Xu Yi, I’m off to bed." Past ten o’clock, Lu Ke had dried her hair after a bath and spoke to Xu Yi.
"Okay, good night, I’ll be there soon." Xu Yi glanced at Lu Ke and continued working.
After Lu Ke fell asleep, Xu Yi spent over ten minutes to finish the rectangular holes.
He installed the bench legs, and a long bench was completed.
Xu Yi tested its stability, and it seed fine.
Tomorrow, it could be officially used.
Check-in, bathe, then head back inside to sleep.
The next morning, after Lu Ke completed the Eighteen Forms of Body Strengthening, she woke up Xu Yi.
"Xu Yi, the rabbits made a hole in the fence; I’m not sure if they ran away." Lu Ke said anxiously to Xu Yi.
"There wasn’t one yesterday, so they shouldn’t have run away yet. I’ll smoke them out later." Xu Yi replied unhurriedly, having prepared to make a rabbit cage.
Since the rabbits were born recently, Xu Yi assud they wouldn’t dig holes, but they did.
So, Xu Yi got up and went outside.
After practicing the Eighteen Forms of Body Strengthening three tis, Lu Ke pulled the mother rabbit out of the hole.
"Shall we butcher the mother rabbit today? We’ve been eating dried at for so many days." Xu Yi glanced at the mother rabbit, thinking the young ones didn’t need milk anymore, and the mother could be used as food to improve their als.
"Is it okay for the baby rabbits, not needing breast milk?" Lu Ke didn’t object to eating rabbit at and agreed, thinking like Xu Yi, they’d been on dried at for so long and could use sothing fresh.
She hadn’t yet used a pottery pot to stew at and believed it would turn out well.
"No need, they can eat clover. Moreover, the mother might lead the young ones astray, digging holes everywhere. It’s settled, butcher it, we’ll have stewed rabbit for lunch." Xu Yi decided firmly and planned to hunt and gather a basket of clover later.
In the evening, he could make the rabbit cage.
The cage could be used to keep rabbits or create traps.
Unfortunately, Xu Yi hadn’t found any bamboo yet; otherwise, he would have made the cage earlier and wouldn’t have delayed it until now.
