In the desert, a group of feral drodary cals was ambling along.
They didn’t know that not far ahead.
Five humans, driven by their blood, had set up an ambush!
Chen Wen breathed lightly, gripping the steel long spear in his hand tightly.
This ti’s hunt, without a doubt, he was the main attacker!
Although bows and arrows could kill cals, Hua Yun and they needed to aim very accurately, and it couldn’t be done with one arrow decisively.
In the desert, once the arrow didn’t bring down the drodary cals.
They would escape carrying the arrows to a far distance.
And if Chen Wen and the others wanted to pursue and exhaust the drodary cals’ strength, waiting for their blood to drain, it was impossible.
Because in such a desert environnt.
The ones who would get exhausted first would be the hunters, not the drodary cals.
So they must deal a heavy blow to the cals in one hit, not letting them escape far away.
Hence, Chen Wen took the lead and crafted a detailed plan.
As the drodary cals got closer and closer, Chen Wen stopped overthinking.
He slowly picked up the long spear and walked toward the cals.
This group of drodary cals consisted of a male and his mates and offspring.
Chen Wen’s target was that robust-looking male cal.
The reason was simple, the male cal held a dominant position in the group.
It drank the most water and ate the most food, having the largest body, and thus contained more water in its body.
Chen Wen licked his dry lips, staring at the male cal.
The male cal had already noticed Chen Wen.
However, it wasn’t too nervous, just maintaining its distance.
After all, in this desert, no wild beasts could threaten cals, so they always moved with impunity.
As for hunters, they generally didn’t venture so deep when hunting cals.
They preferred to hunt near human settlents where they could find drodary cal groups.
So, these cals living in the heart of the desert weren’t very afraid of humans.
But this very disdain led this cal group into extinction.
Seeing the cal group approaching to about fifty ters away, even showing intent to move forward.
Chen Wen couldn’t help but mutter to himself, "Are these cals always this brave? Do they not know who I am?"
Unfortunately, no one answered him.
This group of drodary cals naturally ignored Chen Wen.
Thus, Chen Wen was able to gather strength and take aim.
His target was clear, the javelin was aid straight at that male cal.
With the launch of [Giant Strength], Chen Wen used all his might to fiercely throw the long spear.
Accompanied by a whistling sound.
The spear accurately hit the drodary cal positioned ahead.
With the boost from [Thorn], the already sharp spearhead sliced through like a hot knife through butter, effortlessly stabbing into the cal’s side, piercing through its belly and exiting out the other side.
A heavy blow in one strike!
As the intense pain transmitted through its nerves, the male cal seed splashed with hot oil, struggling violently.
It used all its strength, fleeing toward a place away from Chen Wen.
While the surrounding cals were still baffled about what was happening.
Swish! Swish!
Two subtle sounds of breaking wind rang out, as two black shadows almost simultaneously stabbed into the cal’s chest, right at the heart.
Hua Yun and Adam!
The two hunters proficient with bows and arrows launched a fatal attack from the sand dune at the side again!
This was Chen Wen’s arrangent.
He had Hua Yun and Adam, both skilled with bows and arrows, lie in ambush to deliver the coup de grâce.
This plan was extrely successful.
After the cal got hit by the arrows, its body staggered, and its speed instantly slowed down.
And just at that mont.
Dennis and Fred, ambushed at the side of the cals, charged out.
Fred swung his axe, charging towards the cal like a bear draped in human skin.
anwhile, Dennis wielded a makeshift torch, waving the flas to drive other cals away, separating the heavily injured male cal from the group.
The two successfully completed the plan.
This cal is isolated!
Fred saw the cal was severely injured, so he abandoned his axe and rushed forward barehanded.
Chen Wen initially felt a bit uneasy.
But Fred roared and leapt forward to grab the drodary cal’s head.
Then, using techniques similar to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, he easily tripped the drodary to the ground.
Impressive!
Seeing this, Chen Wen imdiately admired Fred trendously.
This guy has strong combat skills!
At this mont, Dennis rushed up.
Although he wasn’t good at hunting, he was adept at handling animal carcasses.
Dennis called out, asking Fred to hold down the drodary’s head.
He then took out a large pot and placed it below the cal’s neck.
A hunting knife suddenly appeared in Dennis’s hand, and he slashed accurately at the cal’s neck.
The next second, a large amount of blood gushed out.
However, Dennis had already controlled the size of the wound, and the arterial blood flowed from the wound directly into the large pot.
The bloodletting lasted a long ti.
This cal had a lot of blood.
After all, the cal only has its blood and stomach to store large amounts of water.
The cal’s hump, contrary to popular belief, is not for storing water but mostly fat.
However, cals can satisfy their tabolic needs by oxidizing fat to produce water.
But humans looking to get water from a cal can only rely on its blood and stomach.
The blood from this male drodary filled two large pots.
Luckily, Chen Wen and his team brought enough pots.
Seeing the cal no longer bleeding, Dennis imdiately took the two pots of blood away, covered them, and placed them on the fire to boil.
Then he returned to the cal, took out a hunting knife, and prepared to dissect the cal’s body.
"The cal skin can be kept; after tanning, it can be used to keep warm at night."
Hua Yun reminded from the side.
Dennis imdiately changed his dissection thod.
He began from the cal’s abdon, cutting open its abdominal cavity.
"Wow, Chen Wen, your long spear skills are impressive!"
Seeing the damage to the cal’s internal organs, Dennis couldn’t help but say, "Not only did you pierce the cal’s body, but you also directly wounded several parts of its internal organs! Even if Hua Yun and the others hadn’t dealt extra damage, this cal couldn’t have run far."
Taking out the long spear, Chen Wen, wiping the blood stains with cal skin, heard the words and smiled kindly.
But the others couldn’t help but think of the image of Chen Wen’s spear piercing a person.
Then they all shivered simultaneously.
Hua Yun said seriously, "Unless it’s a critical mont, try to use the wooden spear I made for you against people. Never use this long spear against anyone; if you miss, the opponent won’t survive!"
Chen Wen nodded at Hua Yun’s words.
Apart from a few who have always targeted him, Chen Wen had no intention of killing anyone else.
After all, everyone ca here aiming to complete the challenge.
No deep enmity or grudges.
Soon, Dennis found the cal’s stomach in its steaming abdon.
He took out the cal’s stomach and cut it open with a dagger.
But quickly, Dennis’s expression changed.
He couldn’t help but say, "Chen Wen, do we really have to drink this stuff?"
As he spoke, Dennis revealed the cut-open cal stomach.
Everyone looked over, and inside was a mixture of green and yellow stuff, and it looked really...
Fred gritted his teeth, "I’d rather drink my own urine than touch this stuff!"
Adam also felt dizzy for a mont, "Forget it, let’s not drink this stuff. Even if it’s filtered, I still can’t accept it."
Although Hua Yun remained silent, his expression was equally uncomfortable.
Seeing that no one could accept it, Chen Wen shook his head, "Then forget it, but if we’re really dying of thirst, we can try to extract the moisture and distill it to drink. Let’s store it for now, in case Xiao Yuan and the others don’t find water, I’ll distill it tonight."
Hearing this, Dennis tied the cal stomach tightly with a rope and put it back into the cal’s abdominal cavity.
Then the group moved to the shady side of a sand dune, where they had previously started a fire, and the cal’s blood was boiling on the bonfire.
Once the cal blood boiled, they took the pot down to cool.
When the temperature felt about right, Chen Wen looked at Fred, "Try it, see if it quenches thirst."
