Chapter 15: Building A Camp

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Maas, who had fainted, returned to normal after three hours due to the effect of salt water.

After he got up, he rubbed his head and stretched his limbs.

After finding that his body had returned to normal, he took out the jerky on the side.

He stuck through the dried lizard meat with a wooden stick and then sprinkled salt on it.

After a few seconds, Maas smelled a long-lost fragrance.

To avoid this situation again in the future due to lack of salt, Maas decided to drink a cup of boiled water mixed with salt water every morning!

After dinner, it was already late at night.

Because he had just slept, Maas was not sleepy at all at this time.

Therefore, he refined the bamboo around the camp.

He cut off all the branches of the bamboo that he had brought back. After a short rest, he sawed off the parts that were about the same thickness as the bamboo with a military shovel.

After this was completed, Maas received a system notification.

“Congratulations to the host for living until the sixth day. You have obtained a field treatment method (beginner) !”

After saying that, countless treatment methods for various mild diseases appeared in Maas’ brain.

These contents were very comprehensive, ranging from scratches to high fever. All of them could be treated with plants that existed in the wilderness.

“It’s already 12 o’clock. It’s time to go to sleep!”

“With these treatment methods, the chances of surviving in this tropical rainforest are getting higher and higher!”

With a happy mood, Maas went straight into his little cabin and fell asleep.

After Maas woke up, more than 100,000 viewers were in an uproar. No one expected him to find salt to cure himself!

Jacklyn, who was also worried, was also in the hospital’s rest area. He stared at Maas, who had fainted on the screen, until he woke up. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

The rescue team in the live broadcast room was ready to rush into the wilderness to rescue him.

But in the end, Maas actually knew about his symptoms and even found a way to heal himself.

This action made the three big families that supported him excited. They believed that Maas was an all-rounded genius!

On the morning of the sixth day, Maas woke up again.

After having salt, he felt that his body was stronger than before.

After getting up, he did some training exercises on the side to strengthen his foundation.

He then continued with his work after breakfast

He was preparing to make the prototype of the enhanced camp in one day.

After waking up, Maas suddenly felt that his brain was working much faster than before.

In just a few minutes, he even had a prediction of what stage he would be able to reach in building the camp today.

First, he found the four thickest bamboos to make a pillar. Twenty centimeters below it, he used the side of the military shovel to saw the four bamboos that were used as pillars to make an upward cut.

Then, he found four bamboos that were thinner than the pillar to make a crossbeam. Using the military shovel saw tooth on the four bamboos used to bear the weight, he sawed a shape that was similar to the pillar that could be stuck together.

Finally, he connected the two parts that matched each other. He used a thick braided rope that he had prepared beforehand to tie the two bamboos together tightly.

After working the four corners repeatedly, Maas had built the foundation of the house.

This house made of bamboos was not only floating in the air, but was also very sturdy. Even a strong wind would not be able to shake it.

After finishing the infrastructure, he began to use bamboo to create a vertical ladder.

After the vertical ladder was completed, Mas began the second stage of construction.

Sawing the top end of the four columns, he made a gap with the bottom side and tied up the crossbeam.

After completing all of this, Mas shook one of the columns with his hand.

Because the frame structure was stable, he could not shake it even a little with his current strength.

After completing the external structure, Maas began to lay the floor of the room.

H found four bamboo that were long enough and laid them at the bottom section. He used the military shovel to remove all the excess parts.

Bamboos were much easier to split than wood. As long as he aimed at the middle part and split it, the size of the two sides would not differ too much.

After splitting the four bamboos into eight pieces, Maas laid the flat side down.

After evenly spacing them, he tied them all up firmly with ropes.

Then, Maas began to strengthen the middle part of the heavy bamboos that supported the floor. In the middle, he placed a bamboo pole with a groove at the same height as the ground.

Only two hours had passed since he had finished doing these things.

This speed surprised even himself.

Next was the most troublesome phase. Maas needed to cut all the intact bamboo into strips.

Making long bamboo strips was more difficult than he had imagined.

Not only did he need to cut it to the same width, but he also needed to trim the edges so that he could cross them and weave them into a floor.

If he did not level the edges of the bamboo, when he walked barefoot on it, it was very easy for the bamboo thorns to pierce the soles of his feet!

Because the bamboo thorns were very small, it was very difficult to shave them out of the feet in the wilderness.

Two hours passed quickly.

The Sun had risen to the middle, and the sunlight was very hot.

Feeling tired, Maas stopped what he was doing and returned to his old camp.

After a good meal, he found a very cool place to lie down.

He didn’t continue his work until the sun was no longer scorching.

It took Maas more than four hours to make the bamboo strips. After making sure that every part was polished properly, he began to lay them.

When he finished laying the floor, the sun was already far away from him.

The temperature also slowly dropped a little. Sitting under the sun, he could feel the cool breeze.

After laying the floor, Maas returned to the fire, picked up a glass of water, and drank it.

Looking at his food storage, there was only some lizard meat left.

“It seems that I still need to go to the forest to pick some fruits before tonight!”

“Otherwise, I’ll have to eat nothing but meat again today. It’s really unhealthy!”

This sentence was clearly heard by the audience in the live broadcast room. The audience watching the live broadcast instantly started to complain.

While the other contestants were still worrying about what to do next, he actually started to pay attention to his health.

Thus, Maas gained a new title, ‘Wilderness Health Master’.

At this time, far to the north of Maas, Faulkner Shirley received an order from her superior.

“Try your best to get close to Maas and win his trust. Any means will do!”

Shirley immediately took action upon receiving this order.

The last time Maas came close to her, Shirley had already noticed him.

It was because of Maas’ foolish actions at that time that Shirley had let down her guard against him.

In Shirley’s words, “What bad thoughts can a foolish man have after observing her for more than an hour on a big tree?”

When they came to the wilderness, the rules clearly stated that no matter what they did, they wouldn’t be breaking the law.

Before Maas met her, Sherry had personally killed three burly men, which resulted in not many competitors around them.

It was clear from this that Maas was not an ‘overly lascivious person’, and for this reason Sherry was in a dilemma.

If the other party was a lecherous person, she could use her proud figure to the fullest.

But Maas was a straight headed man, so all of this would become very difficult.

Rashly approaching would definitely arouse the his vigilance, and forcefully creating an accident would be too abrupt.

After scratching her golden hair, Shirley made a decision and prepared to put on a ‘hero saves the damsel in distress’ show.
