Chen Wen laughed heartily and felt quite touched afterward.

The survival skills of these old folks are truly impressive.

You should know that Liu Yu doesn't have a system; he's purely relying on his physical strength.

To go five days without food in the Sahara and walk dozens of kilometers under environmental pressure.

That's truly unbelievable.

Reflecting on this, Chen Wen also started his dinner.

He took large bites of bear meat strips, which tasted really good!

The chicken soup with some pine needles added was even more delicious.

As for the grouse meat.

Holy moley.

Chen Wen took a bite of the chicken leg and felt utterly comfortable.

Delicious!

The meat is incredibly tender, with the perfect mix of fat and lean meat!

As high-latitude regions near winter, all creatures continuously eat to enhance their fat reserves.

Only this way can they survive the harsh winter.

And because of this, Chen Wen and Hua Yun can enjoy such delicious food.

Another big gulp of chicken soup.

Chen Wen felt the system reacting and promptly closed his eyes.

[Targeting nature's creation—Blue Grouse, proceed with looting!]

[Looting in progress...Looting complete!]

[Please choose one of the following three entries]

[Ground Rooster (Purple): You're not skilled at flying and won't receive flight-related entries afterward]

[Note: What's wrong with a ground rooster? Some birds don't fly either!—Blue Grouse]

[Digging Rooster (Purple): You're better at digging and more likely to find underground food while digging]

[Note: Where is the best digging rooster technology? Find the chicken guy in the Yukon Territory!—Blue Grouse]

[Running Rooster (Purple): When running at close range, you speed up, and when running long distances, your stamina improves, making your feet less prone to blisters]

[Note: Quickly say thank you to the chicken guy!—Blue Grouse]

[Please make your choice within one minute or forgo! If time expires, the system will automatically select the first entry!]

Thank you, chicken guy!

Without hesitation, Chen Wen confidently selected [Running Rooster].

The chicken guy is indeed that chicken guy!

Truly awesome!

This entry's dual features offer Chen Wen an advantage in both long and short runs, making it quite comprehensive!

The speed boost in short runs grants Chen Wen a stronger burst.

The stamina boost in long runs allows Chen Wen to run further.

As for being less prone to blisters, it's a true blessing!

Chen Wen now worried that due to his feet, he might not walk as far in the next two months.

After all, before coming to the Yukon, he hadn't tried walking such a long distance.

The chicken guy's entry made Chen Wen quite happy.

After a full meal, Chen Wen said good night, intending to sleep first.

Hua Yun nodded and used the night watch time to tidy up the camp, ensuring its cleanliness.

She then sat by the fire and continued slicing meat.

...

Watching the harmonious scene, Lin Jiawei, who was about to finish work, felt quite emotional.

"Look, our group is so harmonious. Then look at Yang Feng and Jenny. They're supposed to be a couple, but they're nearly breaking up after a day of hunting."

Upon hearing this, Luo Yao rolled her eyes and advised Lin Jiawei to lower his voice.

After all, Yang Feng and Jenny's assistant was still present.

But she didn't have any good feelings about Yang Feng, so she lowered her voice and said, "It's normal. Yang Feng is very selfish; I noticed this earlier."

"If everything goes smoothly, they won't break up, but now Yang Feng and Jenny have disagreements over food issues and subsequent survival matters."

"Jenny's decision also went awry; it just all piled up, and they've completely fallen out due to the crisis. After this survival session, they're very likely not going to continue."

Lin Jiawei chuckled.

Women sure love talking gossip.

Previously, Luo Yao was indifferent when talking to him.

This was the first time she said so much.

Luo Yao didn't notice Lin Jiawei's expression and continued analyzing: "Looking at our side, Chen Wen has a good personality, and Yun is also easygoing. Their survival styles are quite similar."

"Plus, they're just colleagues, so it's unlikely they'll argue over trivial matters, which makes them appear particularly harmonious."

Lin Jiawei kept nodding, very much agreeing with Luo Yao's analysis.

"They've stored quite a lot of food; will they start moving forward next?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yao sighed: "You say you're Chen Wen's assistant, yet you don't even know his survival style?"

"Chen Wen's survival seems rough but is actually quite meticulous; he won't move without excess food reserves."

"Hua Yun has a similar personality and is a hunting enthusiast. Together, they'll definitely keep hunting."

To reinforce her judgment, Luo Yao repeated, "They'll definitely continue hunting!"

Lin Jiawei was at a loss for words.

Can Chen Wen's survival really be considered stable?

Isn't he always on the verge of disaster?

...

Chen Wen sneezed on his side.

"Who's talking about me behind my back?"

Grumbling, Chen Wen turned over and continued sleeping.

Meanwhile, Hua Yun, on night watch, was amused and helpless.

Soon, it was the middle of the night.

Hua Yun woke Chen Wen up for a shift.

Chen Wen yawned as he sat by the campfire.

Seeing the meat strips Hua Yun had sliced during the first half of the night, Chen Wen felt quite touched.

This girl is really ambitious.

This is what it means to be competitive.

But night watch can be tiresome; doing some work can indeed boost alertness.

Chen Wen found his knife and began processing bear meat.

The hustle was on.

After slicing for about half an hour, Chen Wen planned to stand and move around.

But as soon as he stood up, Chen Wen suddenly had the feeling of being watched again.

Whoa!

What's happening?

Chen Wen couldn't help but glance at the surrounding shadows, full of vigilance.

Once or twice was nothing; that could be a misperception or overthinking.

But as the occurrences increased, Chen Wen truly became alert.

Tomorrow, I must go around and see what's going on!

...

In the shadows near the camp, a pitch-black figure flickered and disappeared into the bushes.

It skilfully made its way through the dense forest to the place where Chen Wen stored his food.

The dark figure deftly found the path leading to the elevated meat storage platform.

It gently picked up the Yunshan branches covering the smoked meat and began stealing it.

After eating a few pieces of smoked meat jerky, the dark figure dragged the Yunshan branches back over the meat strips.

It then moved to the other side and continued stealing.

...

After dawn, Chen Wen shared his two-day feeling of being watched with Hua Yun.

Although Hua Yun hadn't had that feeling, she chose to trust Chen Wen.

"Need any help?"

Hua Yun asked.

Chen Wen shook his head: "Not for now; it's just a feeling. If there aren't any extra traces around, it's probably just mistaken perception."

"By the way, pack the already smoked meat in your backpack; later, I'll take it to the meat storage platform and place them there."

Hua Yun nodded; it was a simple task.

During breakfast, Chen Wen used Hua Yun's backpack to pack the food.

Then he took the backpack to the meat storage platform.

But as soon as he arrived at the meat storage platform, Chen Wen noticed something was amiss.

"Something's been around here!"

Approaching the tree and seeing the claw marks, Chen Wen's face immediately changed.

Have the meat from above been disturbed?

Chen Wen didn't have time to think further and immediately set up the ladder, holding his knife, climbing up.

Upon reaching the top, seeing that the Yunshan branches seemed undisturbed, Chen Wen felt slightly relieved.

But as soon as he lifted the nearest Yunshan branch from him.

"Damn it! They really stole some!"
