Day 10 of survival.

A third of the 30-day survival requirement has already passed.

Although Kaine Lulu and Kreya had reunited several days ago,

the nights are becoming increasingly colder.

This forces them to confront these insane humans during the day, as battling them at night means facing the brutal cold.

Perhaps their enemies have lost their enhancements, but they themselves are also weakened by the severe cold.

Before meeting with Meizike, they absolutely cannot afford to get sick.

Getting sick in such a place is undoubtedly giving up the chance to pass the trial and choosing failure.

In this forest, the only herbs Kane recognizes are simple ones for external wounds.

A blood-red sky overhead.

Facing the insane townspeople rushing out from the village, Kreya charged ahead, using her advantage in size to kill a few before swiftly leaving.

The crazed townspeople gave relentless chase, and the chilly winter nights had kept Kane from disturbing them, allowing them to rest comfortably.

Once the townspeople were lured away, Kane led Lulu to the bodies that Kreya had just slain.

By then, the corpses had already turned to ashes.

Lulu quickly flew over, collected the resources dropped from the ashes, and left the scene with Kane.

Meanwhile, Kreya had looped back, bringing a group of lunatics with her, returning to the village entrance.

Suddenly, a giant wolf dashed out from the bushes beside them, attacking the last few humans in the group, tearing their throats, then quickly turned and ran in the opposite direction.

While the insane townspeople were turning around, Kreya had already vanished.

These people could only pursue the fleeing Kane ahead.

After they left, Lulu flew out from the side again, taking the resources from the newly appeared piles of ashes on the ground, and slipped into the forest.

Kane quickly shook off the humans, diving into the woods.

Thus, the three of them gathered at a tree hollow in the forest.

Over these few days, they've been changing tactics to guerrilla against the insane humans, reducing their numbers while stocking up more on resources.

Facing the insane humans under the crimson sky during the day, Kane and the others dared not face them head-on.

One or two could be dealt with easily, but once they grouped up, their crazed actions and enhanced abilities from the crimson entities,

would certainly bring them trouble.

"Pack up the resources. Let's prepare to move. This place should no longer be safe,"

Kane said, watching the two people eating.

Hearing Kane's words, Kreya asked in confusion, "Why? Didn't we hide well? We always manage to shake them off before circling back here."

Hearing Kreya, Kane shook his head and replied,

"It's different. These people are crazy but not stupid. They're also highly perceptive during the day. After so many days of us harassing them, they can basically pinpoint our location. Also, we haven't had time to clean up many traces along the way."

Hearing Kane's explanation, Kreya could only nod and start packing the collected resources with Lulu since Kane is the expert in this regard.

In the forest activities, it's best to follow Kane's lead.

Especially now that their powers are suppressed to ordinary human levels.

Once the resources were packed, Kane began to cover the obvious traces around.

During his years of hunting in Laka Forest, Kane adhered to one principle.

Whenever something felt off, always plan for the worst case.

Most of the time it might be unnecessary, but once or twice it could save your life.

Kane had already found another hidden location.

Four kilometers from the village, under a small hill, there is a cave with a narrow entrance but a wide interior.

Plus, dense trees surrounding it make it extremely concealed.

At night, these trees can also block cold winds and drifting snow.

Yes, now it's starting to snow at night.

It's leaning heavily towards a blizzard.

To test them, Aiklonen is increasingly ruthless.

Near the statue, Aiklonen was adjusting various parameters of Kane and the others' space.

And the quantity and distribution of dungeon creatures.

He's trying to increase the challenge for Kane and the others while avoiding overly breaking the trial.

Feeling a strange resentment, but it doesn't matter; the trials are more important.

Kane and the others reached the cave and hid their resources inside, beginning to gather wood in the surroundings.

At night, fur and blankets are insufficient to ward off the cold, so they must light fires in the cave to maintain body temperature.

Kane also needs to carefully set up warning traps around.

And observe for any unusual traces.

The gray giant wolf runs through the forest, using vines and tree fruits to set up simple traps.

Ahead, not far away, is the exit from the forest.

A dirt road connects to the village.

Standing still and relying on the Wolf Monarch's sharp gaze, Kane observed the odd traces on the dirt road.

Arriving at the dirt road, he examined closely.

These seem to be hoof prints, possibly even horseshoes.

Counting the traces around, this squad has at least four warhorses.

The tracks in the ground are deep, either carrying heavy resources on their backs or armored men.

No matter how you look at it, it's not a sign of good news.

Keeping his thoughts to himself, Kane turned back.

...

"You're going out scouting now? But the wind and snow are strong outside. Will you be alright?" Kreya asked the gray giant wolf, who was heading out of the cave in the firelight.

The wolf didn't turn back but explained while moving towards the cave entrance.

"Found something suspicious while setting up warning traps outside during the day. I want to confirm if I'm overthinking it. Keep an eye on the surroundings."

Having said that, he darted out of the cave, disappearing into the wind and snow.

Kreya moved the fire pit to a hidden corner, and used branches woven into a cover to block the entrance to cloak the firelight.

Outside, the cold wind carried snowflakes.

Among the three, only Kane transformed into the giant wolf can move at night through the wind, rain, and snow, thanks to his thick fur.

Kreya, acting as an ordinary person in such conditions, constantly risks getting sick.

Falling ill without medicine is absolutely not an option.

After a short time, Kane arrived not far from the village.

Seeing the village's firelight, he snuck over during the snowstorm.
