Chen Wen suddenly rembered the one ti the show crew contacted them.
The crew had told them that for their safety, they would dispatch three rescue teams stationed nearby.
Could it be those people?
After thinking about this possibility, Chen Wen imdiately grew suspicious.
He increasingly felt it was this possibility!
However, Chen Wen did not rashly contact the crew, nor did he choose to go out.
Carefully considering it, he piled up the snow and branches on the snow wall outside his shelter, then hung a brightly colored life jacket on top.
At the sa ti, to make it more noticeable.
Chen Wen also used the tools at hand to make a torch.
Stood it up beside the jacket.
When the snow lessened, Chen Wen would try to light the torch to make his shelter more visible.
This was already the limit of what Chen Wen felt he could do.
This damn weather.
Even for him, even with all skills unlocked, there was a great chance of losing direction after leaving the shelter.
Once direction is lost, unless you beco an animal like a grizzly bear, finding a safe spot to enter a hypothermic state and waiting out the blizzard to move is the only option.
So he didn't risk going out.
After sitting quietly in the shelter for a while, the old wolf ca over.
Seeing Chen Wen's serious expression, the old wolf asked, "That piece of clothing seems to be human, are you going to help your kind?"
As a creature with a strong sense of group identity, the old wolf was quite concerned about the safety of its team mbers.
And Chen Wen's previous traits made the old wolf feel he was such a person as well.
So the old wolf asked this question.
But Chen Wen shook his head: "No, we can't make trouble now."
After briefly explaining the differences between human society and a wolf pack to the old wolf, Chen Wen half-closed his eyes to rest.
...
Over at the show crew.
The disappearance of two rescue teams in a row had everyone on edge.
Especially since a bloody piece of clothing was found by Chen Wen's side, evoking thoughts of bloody scenes.
Even the contestants' assistants were feeling nervous at this mont.
After all, the rescue team was in groups of five, carrying a lot of supplies, while the contestant was all alone!
As ti passed.
Greg also contacted a new rescue team.
But after hearing about the situation here, ninety-nine percent of the rescue teams declined Greg's request.
Are you kidding?
Sending people for a search mission in such a dangerous area at such a dangerous ti?
No one was willing to take the risk, no matter how high the prices were.
Money is good, but you have to be alive to spend it.
While for Vic.
The rescue team successfully picked up Vic and slowly led him back to the rescue team's camp.
The rescue team had professional positioning equipnt and marked the route with noticeable markers along the way.
So there was no risk of getting lost.
This relieved Greg.
If the contestants had any more accidents, Greg felt it might be better just to die right there.
The reason behind the disappearance of the other two rescue teams was also preliminarily identified by the crew.
In simple terms, the concentration of elites in this rescue team caused the other two teams to be composed mostly of novices.
The number three rescue team on Chen Wen's side suddenly found themselves surrounded by a wolf pack in the morning.
They instinctively sought help from the elite team.
While the elite team provided the correct advice to the number three team, the team panicked under the encirclent of the North Arican gray wolf pack.
In their panic, they made an erroneous decision.
Which led to the camp being attacked by wolves.
The elite team, upon hearing about the attack, was in a hurry.
But they were in the forest, unable to go over easily.
Therefore, the elite team sent a ssage to the second team where Vic was, asking them to go for assistance.
The second team was stationed on the lake, equipped with specialized snowmobiles.
They could reach much faster.
Upon receiving the ssage, the second team dared not delay a mont.
They raced as quickly as possible on their snowmobiles to reach the third team.
But sothing went wrong along the way.
They lost contact.
The elite team wasn't initially sure how to report this, but for the sake of the rescue team's reputation and the commission for this mission.
They planned to keep it under wraps, head over first on their own.
If everything was fine, all the better; if not, then they'd discuss it with the show crew.
But before they could take action, Vic announced he was withdrawing from the contest.
This matter couldn't be kept hidden anymore.
After learning the full story, Greg couldn't help but curse loudly.
Cursing aside, unresolved issues like this could have negative impacts on the crew over here.
Therefore, Greg was determined.
He kept raising the price, and soon a team experienced in polar region rescues was tempted by the huge bounty.
After negotiating with the crew, they brought supplies and search and rescue equipnt and flew over to the show crew.
They actually flew over.
...
Ti moved into the evening.
The rescue team had been out of contact for close to seven hours.
To be honest, there was already debate over their survival among the crew.
So crew mbers felt they were certainly dood, and spending a great deal of money to search and rescue now would be a loss.
But there were also those insisting on continuing the rescue.
After all, the blizzard had cald down in the afternoon, and by the evening, only the wind remained, not even a gale.
Initiating a search now could result in a high chance of rescuing any survivors.
In short, the crew over here was in endless debate.
...
On Chen Wen's side.
After busying himself shoveling snow for half an hour, he shook off the ice from himself stiffly, then crawled back into the shelter.
Sitting by the fireplace to warm his body.
Chen Wen took a deep breath and sighed, "I'm alive!"
Once his body regained suppleness, Chen Wen started bustling about cooking.
While boiling at, Chen Wen seed to recall sothing.
He took the fire starter outside and ignited the torch he had prepared in the afternoon.
The torch was made using grease-soaked pine bark, wrapped around plenty of pine branches.
Once lit, it could burn for a long ti.
Chen Wen ignited the torch and placed it next to the life jacket.
This was one of the few things he could do.
Just as Chen Wen lit the torch, nearby, about two kiloters away.
A figure was struggling to trek through the snow.
Sotis walking southward, sotis turning westward.
After walking dozens of ters, as if realizing he was going the wrong way.
This figure took out sothing similar to a smartphone, briefly checking the glowing screen.
After double-checking several tis, this person slowly continued moving southward, toward Chen Wen's shelter.
In normal circumstances, two kiloters might only cost him a few minutes to run through easily.
But now, with snow accumulation, mountainous terrain, low temperatures, darkness... so many debuffs stacked on.
His pace beca exceedingly slow.
...
anwhile, Vic's side.
Under the guidance of the elite team, he safely returned to the elite team's camp without further incident.
He drank so hot tea and had a warm al of portable military rations.
Vic felt he was finally alive again.
However, the atmosphere in the camp was not good at this mont.
Five elite mbers were frowning heavily, continuously attempting to contact their missing companions.
"Forget it, stop wasting your efforts."
One of them sat down with their heads in their hands.
He sighed and said, "They should be..."
He didn't finish, but everyone understood what he ant.
At this ti, soone rembered the team allocation, furiously said, "I said during the grouping, we should have separated us veterans!"
"What's the use of saying that now?!"
In the heat of extre emotions, everyone started quarreling.
But just then, a ssage suddenly arrived from the show crew.
"We found them!"
