In the dense mountain forest, hidden dangers lurk; in inconspicuous places, beneath the grass or behind stones, there could be enemies that threaten your life.
In these woods, Lin has learned many useful things from the three members of the Super Ability Tiger Team, skills for survival in the wild that cannot be found in books.
The Training Zone is essentially a wilderness filled with rare and exotic creatures, so Lin is currently undertaking a Wilderness Survival Mission. Mastering survival skills in such an environment is essential for staying alive.
Knowing what to avoid, which creatures are dangerous, when to run upon hearing certain sounds or smelling specific odors—these are all experiences summarized by seasoned explorers over many years.
The three members who have long roamed the southern part of the Training Zone are well-acquainted with the environment here and possess many techniques that ordinary adventurers might not know.
They have generously shared their knowledge with Lin, mainly because Lin has a good rapport with them; they answer any questions he has.
As they ventured deeper into the forest, it was time for them to part ways.
Their trek had brought them to the edge of Yang Lake, where Lin's destination lay, while the three members of the Super Ability Tiger Team would continue forward in search of the Yanghu Ruins.
...
As the crescent moon rose, night slowly spread from the east. A campfire flickered at the edge of the forest, indicating human presence.
At this moment, Lin and Su Youpeng crouched behind a pile of grass, both lowering their bodies and cautiously watching ahead as if on guard against something.
"Brother Lin, do you see that beehive up ahead? It's almost as tall as a person; that's the Giant Hornet's nest. Unfortunately, there's no Dragon Tobacco nearby; otherwise, we could smoke those big hornets down and have some honey!"
As Su Youpeng mentioned, the Giant Hornet is a type of bee that produces extremely sweet honey. However, these bees are quite large—about the size of an adult's fist—which is how they got their name.
Honey is delicious, but hornets are not to be trifled with. Only at night when the Giant Hornets return to their nest can one light Dragon Tobacco beneath the hive and use the toxic smoke to kill these bees in order to enjoy some honey.
"Alas, what a pity! I tasted the honey made by the Giant Hornet last year, and it was truly sweet!"
Smacking his lips, Su Youpeng could only think about the taste of the honey. Without thick smoke to deal with these Giant Hornets, openly challenging them with flesh and blood was an act of foolishness.
The Giant Hornet is highly venomous; a single sting can be fatal.
"Let's go, Brother Lin. You won't be able to enjoy this honey today. It's better to head back and let me tell you all about its benefits!"
After pulling on Lin a couple of times, Su Youpeng was ready to take him back.
"Su Ge, you go ahead. I want to watch a little longer..."
Lin, who had been silent, was staring at the Giant Hornet's nest, his palms rubbing together as if he didn't want to miss out on such great cooking materials.
"Alright then, Brother Lin, just take a look, but don't provoke those Giant Hornets!"
Before leaving, he reminded Lin once more, showing how deeply the threat of the Giant Hornets had left an impression on Su Youpeng.
Once Su Youpeng's voice faded away, Lin called out to Shitou and said, "Shitou, help me record this. Edit the video later and put it in the Live Streaming room."
This was Lin Xin's idea. He wouldn't be able to live stream for a long time to avoid distractions during his training. However, neglecting live streaming for too long would be detrimental to him, so he came up with a new plan.
On his journey of cultivation, if he encountered anything fun or made any delicious food, he would edit them into videos and upload them in the Live Streaming room for visitors to watch.
This way, he could solve the problem of not live streaming for an extended period without disrupting his training. He would only record videos unilaterally and still refrain from contacting anyone outside; all video editing and posting would be handled by Shitou.
This was his first attempt, and Lin took it seriously. He summoned the Destruction Bugs from the Destruction Nest and began to approach the Giant Hornet's nest cautiously.
The power of the Destruction Bugs is on a completely different level compared to the Giant Hornets. The swarm of Giant Hornets took only a minute to completely annihilate the Giant Hornet nest.
Excited, Lin hurried to the Giant Hornet's hive and used a knife to extract some honey, tasting it.
"Mm... this honey is indeed good. Such sweet honey is rare. It seems these Giant Hornets use fruits as their material, so the honey has a light fruity aroma. This is simply a blend of various fruit fragrances!"
This kind of honey can be considered an excellent ingredient. Lin specifically bought glass containers from the shop and carefully filled them with honey.
"Having such great materials, I should make something with them!"
Lin scratched his chin as he walked back, while Shitou followed beside him and said, "Aren't you new to Yang Lake? There are plenty of fish here; it's not like we lack ready-made ingredients."
"Fish sounds good too. Let's go with fish then! I'll whip up a new dish for everyone using the precious honey we just found!"
Lin waved the honey in his hand as he headed towards the campfire.
...
When living outdoors, one must be very cautious. Experienced teams like the Super Ability Tiger Team set up sensors around their campsite in advance; any creature that approaches will trigger an alarm.
Two large tents serve as their resting place, surrounded by a circle of electric nets. These nets have powerful electric shock capabilities, deterring even strong beasts from approaching and making it difficult for them to intrude.
With these layers of protection in place, the three members of the Super Ability Tiger Team dared to gather around a campfire in the middle of their tents, cooking food or chatting.
The reason they chose a campfire instead of portable survival tools, Boss Wu explained, was mainly for ambiance; it made them feel more like adventurers!
"Brothers, I'm back!"
"Lin Yuan" shouted from a distance, feeling genuinely happy as he couldn't wait to show the honey to the three of them. He exclaimed, "Look what I got!"
"Su Youpeng" opened the bottle, took a taste, and immediately smiled broadly. He patted Lin's shoulder and said, "Nice job, Brother Lin! You actually got Punch Honey! How did you manage that?"
Naturally, Lin couldn't reveal that. He smiled mysteriously and said, "That's a secret!"
Then Lin changed the subject. "By the way, Brother Wu, weren't you fishing by the lake? Did you catch anything?"
"This isn't just any fish; look at this Flowered Carp! It's big enough for a fish soup that can feed all four of us. Come on!"
"Wu Qilong" held up a fish that was almost as tall as him, swinging its tail vigorously. However, with Wu's great strength holding onto its body, it couldn't struggle free.
"It's a good fish, but making soup would be a waste. Let me handle it!"
Lin's eyes lit up; he had never seen such a large freshwater fish before. He felt a bit surprised—Training Zone really was a wild area where he could always discover eye-catching ingredients.
"Oh right, Brother Lin, you're a great chef! Hurry up and cook this fish so we can see if your craftsmanship is really that good!"
"Watch closely, my brothers!"
A smile crept across Lin's face as he flicked his wrist, and the Nine Heads knife appeared in his hand.
