Wilderness Survival: I’m an All-round Expert! - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: The Silent Explorer

Not long after dark, the rain stopped.

Maas, who was sitting under the wild banana leaves, immediately stood up and habitually patted the stains on his body that could not be removed.

Taking advantage of the night, Maas returned to the edge of the previously barren forest.

Not long after he arrived, he encountered the first wave of patrols.

The leader was the person who had gone to their place to scout last time. Maas, who was hiding in the dark, immediately stretched out his hand to peek.

Because this man had extraordinary talent and extremely sharp six senses, Maas did not dare to take another look at him. He walked towards the other side.

“Lang Gong, right? I’ll remember you.”

Not long after he left, Maas discovered a very big problem.

He had thought that the night would be better during the day, but he did not expect that this barren forest was filled with all kinds of traps.

No wonder these people were so relaxed. It was because of this.

After bypassing these large and small traps, Maas finally saw the flames of the camp.

The style of the camp here was completely different from other places. The tents they made were all small tents with round spires.

Climbing up a big tree near the camp, Maas clearly saw the layout of the camp.

Through his observation, he soon found a very respected man walking out of a tent.

When people around him saw him, both men and women would stop and greet him.

The man frowned as he walked, not noticing that someone had invaded his vicinity.

After doing this for a while, he arrived at the entrance of a large tent.

However, he did not just walk in, instead, he paced back and forth at the entrance.

After thinking for a long time, he flicked his sleeve and left the place.

Maas carefully stared at the man’s lips and realized that the language he spoke was completely different from his own.

Helplessly, he had no choice but to slide down the tree and leave the eastern faction’s vicinity.

He had basically gotten all the information he wanted, so he walked all the way to the abandoned camp.

After walking for more than two hours, he approached the supposed empty camp.

However, he found that someone had actually started a fire in this abandoned camp.

This person did not seem to have done anything to hide, and directly sat in front of the fire to roast something.

Seeing this, Maas immediately walked over and sat across from the man in front of the fire.

After sitting down, he said, “Do you mind if I borrow a fire?”

The man smiled at Maas and immediately stretched out his hand to make a welcoming gesture. “Please have a seat. There’s still warm tea here.”

“If you like, please have a cup!”

After drinking the tea, Maas remembered what had happened during the day.

Because this person had caught his eye, he had no choice but to hide in the grass.

“We seem to have met once during the day!”

This person obviously did not care about this matter. He said to Maas, “At that time, I thought someone was tracking me. In the end, I realized it was just a misunderstanding!”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed loudly.

“I thought that you were from the eastern or southern faction. It seems that you have nothing to do with them!”

The man on the other side grinned and replied, “Just as I said, I don’t belong to their camp.”

“And for such a long time, they did not discover my existence.”

“But during the day, you really surprised me. I thought that no one in this world would be able to discover me, but today, I was extremely wrong!”

As he spoke, white smoke rose from beneath the man’s feet.

Not long after, the white smoke dispersed, leaving behind only a section of dead wood in front of the fire.

Seeing this, Maas immediately clapped his hands.

“Wow! Are you enduring it?”

When the man heard this, he immediately appeared behind Maas.

After pouring a cup of tea for Maas, he said to him, “Indeed!”

“I originally thought that no one would come to this dangerous tropical rainforest. I didn’t expect so many people to come at once!”

Hearing this, Maas immediately asked, “You’re not a contestant?”

The man nodded and replied, “Of course, Which contestant do you see wearing a complete set of black clothes like me and having a tea set.”

If he was not a contestant, there was no conflict with them at all. Then why did this person appear here?

Maas could not help but think so.

But soon, the other party gave an answer, “I want to get to know you, mainly because your six senses are really sensitive!”

“In this forest, you are the second person to discover my existence!”

These words could not help but remind Maas of another man.

Looking at Maas who was reminiscing, the man continued, “That person is still young, and his six senses can not be compared to your at all!”

‘Hearing so much, did this person just come here to praise me!’ Maas could not help but think so.

Seeing his facial expression, the man laughed. “You are indeed an interesting man!”

As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea for Maas and explained his purpose for coming.

“I only have one purpose in coming for you. I hope that you can have a serious fight with me at the end of the wilderness survival match!”

After hearing this, Maas looked at this person with a surprised gaze and said, “Just for this!”

“I can fight with you now!”

The man immediately waved his hand and explained, “When the time comes, it will be a real fight!”

“No matter what the result is, I will give you a generous reward!”

Seeing Maas’ puzzled expression, the man realized that he had made a mistake and continued to add, “A sum of wealth that is several times more than your total reward for completing wilderness survival!”

“That’s about it!”

Even a fool would know that such a high reward would not be so easy to obtain.

“What exactly is it that you want to fight me with your life!”

“I don’t understand, because I think you’re a good person, but I don’t like fighting with people I know!”

Hearing this, the man on the other side immediately became troubled.

“Indeed, there is no conflict between me and him at all, and the relationship between the two of them is very harmonious now. Even if they fight, no one can really fight!”

After the man in black paced back and forth a few times, he scratched his long hair with both hands.

“Forget it! Let’s talk about this later…” The atmosphere immediately became awkward.

After the two of them ate, the man in black began to formally introduce himself.

“My name is Long Zhijie!”

“Maas!”

“If possible, please grow stronger as soon as possible!”

“So you can spar with me when the time comes!”

“After so many years, I finally found a person with such strong six senses!”

“If I can grow to that stage, I definitely will!”
