Are You Telling An Eight-Year-Old To Survive In The Wilderness?

Thinking back to the previous episodes, almost every raft he built would sink.

Bell couldn’t help but shiver.

He did not believe in metaphysics. Of course, that was excluding the times when he needed to lucky draw.

But after experiencing it a few times, Bell had to admit that the probability of him failing was indeed higher.

There is a law in psychology called Murphy’s Law.

The general content was that if you were worried that something would happen, no matter how small the probability was, it might become a reality.

Bell seemed to have fallen into this law.

With the previous experiences, he no longer had much confidence in the raft.

Was the probability of the raft sinking into the water high? It was actually not high.

It could even be said to be infinitely close to zero.

But in Murphy’s Law, no matter how small the probability was, as long as it was greater than zero, it would happen.

Bell shook his head.

Forget it, it was better to play it safe.

Just as Bell was about to give up, a thick piece of driftwood slowly floated past him.

Seeing this floating wood, Bell’s eyes lit up. He quickly followed and hugged it tightly.

Bell realized that it was an Agathis wood.

Agathis trees that could grow so thick were quite rare. Such thick trees could only be found in the Amazon rainforest.

The Agathis tree that Bell was holding was a meter in diameter and about six meters long.

The more Bell looked at it, the more satisfied he was.

He patted the tree trunk and said with a smile.

“Not bad, this Agathis appeared at the right time.”

“I think we can use it to make a canoe.”

“That’s right, you didn’t hear wrongly. It’s not a raft, but a canoe.”

Bell emphasized the word.

The audience was stunned before they reacted.

“Hahaha, Bell is terrified. Bell is actually terrified.”

“It’s over. We won’t be able to watch a good show this time.”

He ignored the people complaining in the live-stream.

The Agathis was very light, so even such a thick tree trunk still had enough buoyancy to float on the water.

Looking carefully, Bell realized that the trunk of the Agathis was already showing signs of decay. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

The wood also became very soft.

This was not a bad thing. At the very least, it was convenient for him to make a canoe.

It could save him some energy.

“This Agathis is a very good tree. Its wood is light, and it also contains a kind of glue inside the trunk.

This glue can be waterproof to a certain extent. ”

It had been more than 6,000 years since the canoe was made.

A good canoe could even travel hundreds of nautical miles.

In some primitive tribes, canoes were still used.

It was not difficult to make a simple canoe.

Bell only needed to carve a space big enough to accommodate adults in the center of this tree trunk.

Bell’s dagger was very sharp and firm.

In addition, the wood was already a little soft, so it was not difficult to cut it.

It took Bell less than half an hour to cut out a half-meter wide and one meter long space in the center of the Agathis.

Looking at his work, Bell nodded in satisfaction and carefully climbed in.

Sitting in the canoe, Bell realized that it seemed to be tilting to the left.

Seeing this, Bell immediately jumped down.

This was within his expectations.

It was reasonable for such a deviation to occur. After all, Bell was only doing it by hand. He did not have any experience or tools, so mistakes were inevitable.

He had already sensed that the canoe was leaning to the left, so he could maintain his balance by installing another frame.

Most of the time, it was not troublesome to make tools. As long as one thought about it, they would know what to do.

Of course, this mainly tested an individual’s ability.

Bell looked around in the water.

He was searching for some wooden sticks that were suitable to be used as support.

When he sat on the canoe earlier, he realized that the canoe tilted very obviously, so the buoyancy requirement for the support was much higher.

Suddenly, Bell saw a bamboo floating on the water not far ahead and was overjoyed.

The buoyancy of bamboo was one of the best among all plants. It was very suitable to make an outboard frame.

The water level ahead seemed to be getting deeper.

When Bell walked to the bamboo, the water had already reached his chest.

However, just as Bell was about to grab the bamboo, water suddenly splashed.

A black figure suddenly jumped out of the water, opened its bloody mouth, and pounced at Bell.

It was a black caiman that had been hiding here for a long time.

This black caiman was less than three meters long.

Compared to the ones Bell had encountered before, this one was not a big deal.

It was unknown how this guy gathered the courage to attack Bell.

Faced with the black caiman pouncing at him, Bell did not panic. Instead, he revealed a trace of excitement.

The black caiman was indeed dangerous, but the current Bell was not the previous Bell.

If not for the lucky draw a day ago, it would have been another difficult battle for Bell.

Even if he really defeated this black caiman, he would be injured to some extent.

But now, Bell’s strength had more than doubled.

Wilderness Hunter!

Intimidation!

Drum of War!

With the help of the Wilderness Hunter skill, Bell’s attribute points instantly exceeded 20.

With the suppression of the Drum of War and the intimidation effect, the attributes of the black caiman decreased again and again.

The aggressive black caiman immediately froze.

Its movements slowed.

Bell did not retreat. Instead, he took a step forward and took the initiative to meet the black caiman.
