Wilderness Survival with Druid System

"Did you see it?"

Chen Wen lay down on the high slope with Vikram, pointing to the SUV not far away.

Vikram nodded: "Is this the Hunting Owl's car?"

"Yes, that's the type, although the color is a little different from the other two I've seen."

Chen Wen frowned and said, "The other two colors are military green and light gray; this pure black one is the first I've seen, but their models are identical, and there are quite a few cages in the rear bed of the SUVs."

While speaking, Vikram seemed to notice something: "Look at the driver's cab; there seems to be a shadow moving. Your eyesight is good, can you confirm it?"

Chen Wen squinted his eyes and carefully discerned for a while.

He nodded and said, "I can confirm there's only one person inside; the other seats are empty. Let me check where those two people are."

As Chen Wen spoke, he was just about to take a look around.

Suddenly, the Golden Eagle, which had been circling, seemed to have found something and let out a cry to alert Chen Wen.

Hearing the Golden Eagle's warning, Chen Wen turned his head to look up the slope.

On the rubble-strewn slope, two sturdy men were dragging a dead rock sheep down.

"Are they poaching rock sheep?"

Chen Wen signaled Vikram to look at the slope.

Vikram nodded slightly: "They are poaching rock sheep. The horns and fur of rock sheep are very valuable, especially the finely crafted specimens which are hot items on the black market, with high value."

Hearing this, Chen Wen couldn't help but glance at him, wondering where this guy got so much information.

Vikram seemed aware of his odd words and explained: "When I was a mercenary, I helped Akashinga investigate the local wildlife black market, so I know a bit about these things."

Okay.

Chen Wen didn't ask more but continued watching the group.

Among the two core members of the Hunting Owl, one held a hunting gun, although not an automatic weapon; it looked like a handmade earth gun.

It had power but poor accuracy and stability.

After noting this, Chen Wen continued to observe the situation.

Soon, he noticed the bed of the car was already piled with numerous animal furs and other poaching spoils.

Chen Wen pointed to that area, and Vikram nodded: "They probably pulled off quite a few jobs. Now they might be trying one more on the way back."

Hearing this, Chen Wen nodded slightly.

At this moment, Chen Wen noticed that the person sitting in the car seemed to spot the two men at a height.

He got out of the car and lifted something black to his eyes.

It should be binoculars?

Chen Wen thought, as if the man had seen the items in the hands of the two men.

He tossed the binoculars back into the cab, opened the rear door, and pulled out a pile of things that looked like a tent.

Soon, he set up the items, and Chen Wen saw clearly that they were indeed tents.

"Are they planning to camp here?"

Chen Wen looked at Vikram.

Vikram nodded: "Most likely, it's almost noon; they probably want to eat."

After confirming that this group planned to stay at the foot of the mountain for a while, they pulled back their heads and retreated to the other side of the slope.

After gaining some distance, Vikram asked, "They're setting up camp, which is our chance. What do you think?"

"Definitely."

Chen Wen nodded in agreement: "A night raid tonight. I've observed the area. The terrain is well-suited, and there aren't any steep regions, so both of us should be able to infiltrate easily."

The two discussed some details, then took out food and shared it.

In the afternoon, Chen Wen and Vikram took turns keeping watch on the Hunters.

During the afternoon, the three processed the rock sheep's skin and head, then cut the meat into pieces, using a pot from the car to boil some and roast others.

By evening, the three Hunters set the rock sheep's skin and head in the truck bed securely, while they gathered around a bonfire, drinking soup and eating kebabs.

They even seemed to have drunk alcohol.

Seeing this, Chen Wen and Vikram realized the opportunity had come.

The two rested well, and by midnight, Chen Wen suddenly opened his eyes, while Vikram took his military dagger, also picking up a spear.

"Are you ready?"

Vikram asked.

Chen Wen nodded: "Ready. How's the situation over there?"

Previously, Vikram had been on watch.

Vikram nodded: "Everything's normal, but I'm not sure if I saw it right, or whatever it was. Not long ago, I think I saw a Tibetan Horse Bear around their camp, but it was just a flash."

Tibetan Horse Bear?

Could it be the Golden Eagle crowd?

Chen Wen didn't dwell on this topic, instead shifting the subject with a laugh: "Whether there's a bear or not doesn't matter; since everything's normal at the camp, let's proceed according to our plan!"

...

The two left their camp, silently approaching the Hunting Owl Camp's side.

The last night raid seemed like it was just yesterday.

Vikram thought, carefully bypassing a weak rock area.

He glanced at Chen Wen, finding that Chen Wen had picked up speed, continuously moving toward the Hunting Owl Camp.

Does he have eyes on his feet?

Vikram grumbled in his heart, yet dared not speed up.

Soon after, Chen Wen reached the Hunting Owl Camp first.

Upon arrival, he was greeted by a strong smell of alcohol.

These guys did drink after all!

Chen Wen couldn't help but think: This is an excellent opportunity!

No matter how alert a person is, once they drink, especially to the point of inebriation, their alertness plummets below passing levels.

Chen Wen was well-experienced with this fact.

He noiselessly approached a tent nearby; inside, the person was snoring like a bull, extremely loud.

The same loud snores emanated from the other two tents as well.

Chen Wen mentally scoffed: Did the Hunting Owl group these people based on snore volume?

He gestured for Vikram to stay inside one of the tents.

Chen Wen himself entered the first tent.

Once in position, Chen Wen extended his hand, raising three fingers in the moonlight.

Three, two, one!

With each second, Chen Wen folded one finger; when three seconds ended, he and Vikram simultaneously slashed through the tents, launching a surprise attack on those inside!

Vikram tore through the tent, a fierce look on his face.

He raised his military dagger, aimed at the awakened man's right upper arm, and stabbed forcefully.

"Argh!"

Amidst a pig-like screech, blood spurted, instantly filling the camp with the scent of blood!

On Chen Wen's side, facing the creator of the Valley of Flesh and Blood, he showed no mercy.

He targeted the head of the man attempting to stand in the tent, activated Giant Strength, and kicked hard.

The man's head met the steel-reinforced hiking boot with a crack of bone, and he fell back into sleep.

As if he had never woken up.

"Damn it! Someone's attacking!"

From the untouched tent, the person realized the problem.

He dashed out of the tent, shining a flashlight onto Chen Wen and Vikram.

The two instinctively raised their hands to block the strong light.

However, this gave him a chance. He darted to the car, opened the door, sat inside, and immediately locked the doors.
