Chapter 301
301 Cave
While walking, Bell pointed at the flat lake and said.
“There is no cover within a kilometer of us, so there is no firewood for us to use to keep warm.
If we are unlucky and fall into the water, even if we can climb out, the cold wind here will freeze us into popsicles in just 30 seconds. ”
Bell’s attributes were far beyond ordinary people. With the Wilderness Hunter skill, his attributes could exceed 20 points.
It was definitely very strong compared to humans.
But now that Bell was in the wilderness, these little stats were nothing.
In this environment, be it Siberian tigers or brown bears, they could easily crush Bell.
Once he fell into the lake, Bell would be sentenced to death.
However, even though he knew that this place was so dangerous, Bell did not stop. Instead, he quickened his pace.
Only by moving quickly could he maintain his reaction speed to the greatest extent.
This way, even if he was really unlucky and stepped on the hole, he could react immediately.
Bell believed that with his current speed, he could escape danger before the ice broke.
In the wild, most dangers were caused by hesitation.
As a veteran wilderness survivalist, Bell naturally would not make such a low-level mistake.
The terrain of the Far Eastern Siberian Icefield was a basin. Cold air gathered here all year round.
It was also because of this that the coldest place in the world was created.
Pointing in the direction of the white snow, Bell continued.
“The south is close to Mongolia. The further we go, the higher the terrain will be, and the warmer it will be.
If my estimate is correct, we should be able to walk out of this ice basin the day after tomorrow.
As long as we can leave this place, the average temperature during the day would rise to about 30 °C.
We won’t have to suffer so much then.”
The cold wind blew through the snow, covering the surroundings with a veil.
It would be completely dark in about an hour.
But Bell was still walking on the lake. It was still white ahead, and he could not see the border.
Bell stopped and frowned, saying.
“The cold wind here has blown up the snow on the ground, reducing our visibility.
It will be completely dark soon.
But we can’t be sure how far we have to go to walk out of this ice lake. ”
In fact, even if Bell did not say it, the audience in the live-stream could see it.
If Bell slept on the lake tonight, there would definitely be another piece of news tomorrow.
The youngest explorer, Bell, had unfortunately died last night.
Bell did not want to be in the news like this.
In this cold wind, it would not even take a night for him to freeze to death. Ten minutes was enough to kill him.
Time was precious. Bell did not dare to delay and continued moving forward with all his might.
Finally, luck was on Bell’s side. After another half an hour, Bell successfully walked out of the lake.
But this did not mean that he was out of danger.
Because after flipping through a snow slope of more than ten meters, he suddenly realized that the nearest pine forest was still a few kilometers away.
However, he only had half an hour left because the sky would completely darken in half an hour.
He could not travel in this land in the dark, it would be no different from suicide.
Bell looked around and sighed.
“Unfortunately, the pine forest is too far away from us. The only thing we can do now is to find a shelter and survive the 18 hours of cold night.”
Bell remembered that Bear had once spent a night peacefully without using fire in his previous world’s survival program.
However, the place he went to was only the Sayan Mountains at the border of Siberia and Mongolia.
Although the winter temperature there was cold, it was only -20 °C.
If the other party dared to pass the night in this Far Eastern Basin, Bell could guarantee that he would not see the sun the next day.
If Bell were to travel in this cold night, he would certainly die on this icy plain. But if he were to try to pass a night here, he would have a 50% chance of survival without fire.
In fact, Bell was not sure if he could survive the night.
As for what could increase his chances of survival, it would be the kind of shelter he could find.
There were very few snow slopes in the surroundings. Bell did not see anything he liked.
In Siberia, the average altitude was no less than 500 meters.
The appearance of these slopes meant that Bell was gradually leaving the basin. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜m
But Bell was in no mood to care about this.
Because the sun would set in less than half an hour, he had to use this time to find a shelter that could let him safely pass through this night.
Bell’s requirements for finding a shelter today were relatively simple. The first condition was to avoid the wind.
After all, the cold wind would make the surrounding temperature even colder.
Bell advanced along the slope, not forgetting to look around, trying to find a suitable shelter.
After walking for about fifty meters, Bell’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Not far in front of him, there were a few protruding rocks at the foot of a slope.
Most importantly, there was a head-sized crack in the middle of the rocks.
The angle of the crack was very hidden. If one did not observe carefully, it was difficult to notice.
Bell quickly moved forward and bent down to clear the snow around the crack.
As he moved, the crack became larger and larger, finally forming a half-meter-long cave.
Following the hole, Bell looked inside and found that the space inside was not very big, only about a square meter.
Fortunately, the cave was quite dry.
For some reason, there was a faint strange smell.
Fortunately, Bell was only an eight-year-old child. If he was really an adult, he might not have been able to enter this 1 square meter hole.
