Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Around nine in the morning.

Chen Wen instructed Golden Eagle to gather the animals and continue forward.

Vikram quickly tidied up his supplies, tools, and food, and Chen Wen reasonably distributed these among the horses.

However, as a price for this, both he and Vikram needed to walk.

But the speed of the horses wasn’t fast, and the two of them, without much load, could accept it.

"We’ve reached the elimination phase now."

Walking on the road, Vikram discussed his plan with Chen Wen, "I think we can join forces. If we encounter other contestants, we can eliminate them and seize their prize money."

Chen Wen hesitated for a moment and said, "I won’t make a move personally, but I can have Golden Eagle provide you with some information. Whether or not you can eliminate the opponents, that’s up to you."

After ensuring his advancement, Chen Wen still wanted to play it safe.

There weren’t many strong contestants among them, but those who persisted until now weren’t weak either.

Most contestants might be acting in groups.

Hearing this, Vikram nodded: "Okay, I’ll give you a tenth of the prize money."

A tenth, to buy Golden Eagle’s reconnaissance ability.

Vikram felt it was still worthwhile.

As they walked and talked, the atmosphere became much more harmonious than at the beginning.

A day passed.

Chen Wen and Vikram didn’t encounter other contestants but saw a group of wild yaks.

Vikram wanted to team up with Chen Wen and use his qualification to hunt wild yaks.

But unfortunately, as dusk fell, it wasn’t appropriate to go hunting impulsively.

Vikram could only gaze at the yaks regretfully.

...

The next morning, Vikram continued to search for traces of the wild yaks.

But the herd of wild yaks had vanished without a trace.

Missing the chance made Vikram quite regretful.

Chen Wen wasn’t affected much. He glanced at Golden Eagle and signaled it to scout ahead.

Golden Eagle flapped its wings and flew ahead.

In front of Chen Wen and Vikram’s route, there was a terrain filled with undulating mountain ridges.

This type of terrain was very suitable for shelters and was quite covert.

If someone arrived early and chose to camp in the core area here, then this area in front was undoubtedly the most suitable.

Chen Wen and Vikram waited for Golden Eagle to return with information, slowing down their pace.

...

On Golden Eagle’s side.

It flapped its wings and followed the swirling wind, reaching high altitudes.

Then, it spread its wings, letting the wind pass around them, effortlessly gliding high in the sky.

This is Golden Eagle’s favorite way of flying, carefree and effortless.

And it took advantage of this time to scan the ground with its sharp eyes, using its enhanced perception ability to sense the situation on the ground.

Soon, Golden Eagle sensed something unusual.

It noticed dozens of crows circling above a valley.

Having spent so much time with Chen Wen, especially during survival in the wild.

Golden Eagle and Chen Wen had talked about many things, besides information related to human society, outdoor survival information was what they talked about the most.

Golden Eagle learned from Chen Wen that crows are scavengers.

When they circle a particular area, it often indicates that this area might have animal carcasses, or animals on the verge of death.

Golden Eagle perked up, its wings subtly adjusting.

It began to dive toward that area.

But as Golden Eagle dove, the flock of crows seemed to receive a dining signal, suddenly swooping down toward the valley.

This surprised Golden Eagle greatly.

Did they discover something?

Golden Eagle thought, accelerating its dive toward that direction.

But just as it reached above the valley, Golden Eagle’s body suddenly stiffened.

Its eyes widened dramatically, its body shivering a bit without control.

However, Golden Eagle quickly adjusted.

It immediately resumed its flying posture, but its inner mind wasn’t as calm as before.

After carefully inspecting the area below, confirming the situation down there.

Golden Eagle flapped its wings and flew away.

...

"Speaking of which, which part of the Desert Extreme Challenge do you think is harder, the first half or the latter half?"

On Chen Wen’s side, Vikram was asking him about the Desert Extreme Challenge.

He planned to try the Desert Extreme Challenge next year.

Just as Chen Wen was about to speak, in the sky, Golden Eagle let out a series of cries.

Hearing the sound, both Chen Wen and Vikram looked up.

But soon, Chen Wen’s expression changed.

He frowned deeply, processing the information Golden Eagle had brought back — discovered a valley ahead! Lots of bones, and even quite a few animal carcasses in the valley!

"There’s something ahead."

Chen Wen looked at Vikram and said seriously, "And something’s not right, doesn’t look like human traces. Let’s go see, be cautious."

Seeing Chen Wen’s extremely serious expression, Vikram also sensed there might be problems ahead.

He pulled out the military Thorn with a reverse hand, placing it between two layers of clothes.

Then inserted the dagger into the buckle on his knee.

After preparing, he finally said: "Let’s go and see, everyone for themselves if there’s danger."

Chen Wen nodded, urging the horse toward the valley Golden Eagle mentioned.

...

As the two approached the valley, a faint, peculiar smell surrounded Chen Wen’s nose.

The smell was somewhat foul, like the stench around large animal dens.

And like the putrid odor from animal carcasses that had rotted for a long time.

Chen Wen gently sniffed his nose, inhaling the scent coming from the air.

And as he and Vikram drew closer, the stench intensified.

Soon, after crossing a hillock.

Seeing the scenery ahead, Chen Wen couldn’t help but take a deep breath, coughing several times consecutively.

Vikram’s brow twitched too, seeming to be the first time he saw such a scene.

In front of them, at the bottom of the slope in the valley, it was piled with tons of white bones!

The hues of these bones varied greatly, some older with signs of decay, others newer and looking fresh.

Most bones had a whitish appearance, suggesting they’d been here a while.

What caught Chen Wen’s attention was the valley entrance where, seemingly not long ago, someone had piled animal carcasses.

Chen Wen scanned briefly, his brow furrowing.

He saw antelope carcasses, quite fresh, but ravaged by the flock of crows.

"Shocking!"

Vikram said, his eyes flashing with hidden anger, "If this isn’t the work of the Hunting Owl’s people, I’ll take off my head and throw it here!"

Listening to Vikram’s words.

Chen Wen took a deep breath: "This place is likely where Hunting Owl disposed of animal carcasses! Damn, these cursed beings! How many wild animals have they killed?!"

Looking at the small half valley filled with bones, Chen Wen was hard-pressed to imagine just how many animals fell victim to Hunting Owl’s cruelty!
