Forest Survival: From Logging to Login - Chapter 34

Chapter 34: VICTORY! Take Over The Lake!

At that moment, the system’s voice sounded in Ed’s head.

[ Notice ] : The host has activated the 360-degree recording function. Recording can be activated with the host’s mind.

[ Notice ]: All survivors have this function, but the host’s function is more comprehensive. It can be controlled with the mind.

Nice!

This was good for Ed.

Especially now, in this situation. If that feature was activated, he could record himself killing the tiger. It would make for an exhilarating video.

He would definitely become famous overnight.

While the others were still cutting down wood, Ed had already started hunting down tigers. The mere thought of it was riveting.

Upon hearing the system, the other survivors also activated this function as well.

However, the difference was that Ed only needed to use his mind to control it. He did not need to take out a specific item to start recording. In other words, he could start recording immediately, whenever he wanted. He would not be constrained by prerequisites like other survivors, which would save him a lot of time. Alas, this was a benefit of the Doomsday System!

“Start recording.”

With just a thought, Ed started the recording function and switched the view to first person. If he had used any other viewing mode, his location would definitely have been exposed. If that happened, he could face the risk of being targeted by hostiles, which would be extremely troublesome.

That could be avoided if he used the first person perspective. In this mode, the viewers of this video could only see what was in Ed’s line of sight. In other words, he could control what they saw, which was a way to ensure his privacy.

In addition, being able to watch the recording from a first person perspective would make viewers become much more immersed, as if they were the ones in the video.

[ Notice ] : Recording function has been activated by the host.

Roar!

Right as the system finished reading out the message, the tiger standing in front of Ed let out an angry roar.

It was a wild beast, so how could it be afraid of this puny human?

Moreover, the gaze of this human in front of it had made the tiger uneasy. He had looked as if he was staring at a little sheep.

When has a tiger ever suffered such humiliation?

With an angry roar, it propelled itself into the air and launched a fierce attack at Ed.

The tiger raised its front claw and swung it at Ed’s face.

However, with the buff provided by the peach, Ed’s speed was now remarkably quick. Coupled with the permanent bonuses he had gotten from other foods, his movements were now incredibly agile.

The tiger might have been considered quick by normal standards, but to Ed, it may as well have been moving in slow motion.

Ed immediately took a few steps back, dodging the tiger’s attack.

He didn’t want to kill the tiger right away because he had just started recording. As such, Ed tried his best to not hurt it fatally for now. After all, this was an opportunity for him to record some interesting videos for himself.

The tiger, clueless, thought that the human in front of it was just lucky to have dodged that attack.

There would not be a next time!

Roar!

With a low roar, the tiger resumed its offensive.

The tiger swung its claws again. This time, the power behind the attack was much stronger than the last one.

In an instant, its limbs had reached Ed and the tiger tried to strike down with its claws.

However, Ed only calmly dodged to the side.

The tiger’s claws missed, and forcefully struck the big tree where Ed had just been instead.

Just from looking at the claw mark it left behind, Ed could tell how powerful the tiger was.

As expected, it was the strongest and most agile out of the group of tigers just now.

“Again.”

Ed made a provocative gesture to the tiger, taunting it to try again.

The tiger charged straight at him.

This time, Ed chose not to run away.

Just as the tiger was about to reach him, Ed slid past it, skirting the tiger’s attack.

As the tiger launched itself with too much speed, it could not stop in time.

Slash!

Ed used the sharp axe to leave a wound on the tiger’s stomach.

It was injured in an instant.

The tiger looked at the blood on the ground and then at the wound on its stomach. The human had actually managed to injure it!

Such humiliation!

The tiger’s eyes seemed to turn red as it tried to rush toward Ed again, shutting off any other thoughts.

One of them would die right here!

Ed stored the axe. He did not need a weapon to finish off a wounded tiger.

It was also a good opportunity to test the extent of his current strength.

Swoosh!

The tiger’s claws almost struck Ed, but he simply used his arm to block it.

Even the fallen leaves on the ground were blown away by the impact.

This left the tiger in a daze. How could a mere human be so strong?

He wasn’t just quick, but had abnormal strength as well.

Ed did not give the tiger any time to react. He raised his fist and punched straight ahead.

Bang!

His punch landed on the tiger’s nose, fracturing it.

In an instant, the tiger’s face was stained with blood.

“It’s time to send you on your way.”

Ed’s tone sounded like that of a god from the underworld.

He retrieved the sharp axe from his storage space and began to dash towards the tiger at an extreme speed.

Tap!

Ed used so much strength in his legs that his feet had started to leave deep impressions on the ground.

He then swung the axe with one hand and slashed down at the tiger in front of him.

Slash!

Before the tiger could even recover from the last attack, it had collapsed into a pool of blood.

The blood flowed as it seeped into the ground, becoming nutrients for the trees.

This time, Ed did not care about concealing the smell of blood. It was the last tiger here, so he didn’t see the need for caution.

He turned off the recording function, and the system saved the video for him, so that he could access and watch it whenever he wanted.

Squeak squeak squeak!

Little Treasure, who was hiding in a tree trunk, jumped onto Ed’s shoulder. Its two little paws came together, clapping to applaud his victory.

With a wave of his hand, Ed put the corpse of the vicious tiger that lay on the ground into his storage space.

With that, all the tigers that had once occupied the lake had all been taken care of.

The place now belonged to him!

“Let’s go back and celebrate tonight.”

Ed patted Little Treasure’s head. It was thanks to Little Treasure’s help today that he had managed to take down the tigers. When he returned home tonight, Ed would definitely celebrate properly.

As he looked at the large lake in front of him, Ed started to breathe rapidly from excitement.

After so many days, the lake, which had always been frustratingly out of his reach, finally belonged to him now.

He now had such an abundant source of water and seafood!

From now on, if Ed wanted to eat grilled fish, that’s what he would have. In fact, he would choose the largest one in the lake to satisfy his craving.

Little Treasure also happily used its paws to splash the water around in the lake, creating ripples.

“Sign in.”

Ed realised that he had not checked in today.
