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

Chapter 4: Fresh Snake Meat is a Juicy Steak!

Bell’s professional explanation stunned everyone on the screen.

Even the female host in the broadcast room looked at Bear and Ed in disbelief.

“Gentlemen, is this contestant speaking the truth? Do you have anything to add?”

At this moment, Bear and Ed played their role as hosts.

With the two of them around, at least some professional knowledge could be answered.

Ed nodded. “This contestant is right. The human skin can also absorb nutrients, but the absorption rate is much slower than the digestive system.”

“But similarly, the absorption of poison will naturally be less, so if some poisonous plants are absorbed into the stomach, it might cause discomfort, but if it’s just skin contact, it can be fine.”

“This contestant is the most professional survivalist I have seen so far. Although he is very young, I have to say that this level of professionalism is not something ordinary people can compare to. I really want to know how he gained this knowledge.”

With the confirmation from Bear and Ed, the popularity of Bell’s live-stream increased again.

At the same time, on the screen, Bell was constantly moving forward.

“Our goal is to walk out of this primeval forest. If you want to survive in the wild, your first goal is to confirm your location.”

“Because primeval forests are often covered by tall trees, it’s easy to lose direction. It’s also very difficult to determine the direction by using the sun.”

“But there is another way. We have to find a high point. Through the high vantage point, we can see further and it will be easier to find the path to survival.”

Bell explained patiently to everyone as he walked.

With a wooden stick that he had just broken off from a tree branch, he explored the way through the underbrush ahead of him.

The comments kept rolling as the audience saw Bell’s actions.

“Awesome! This little friend is so professional.”

“How does he know these techniques? I feel like my 30 years of life have been lived in vain.”

“I suddenly understand it. I can see far from a high point of view.”

Bell’s professional explanation and his eye-catching appearance attracted a lot of attention.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 10,000 popularity points.]

As the live broadcast continued, the system’s voice sounded in Bell’s ears again.

Bell’s eyes lit up.

“Another 10,000 popularity? I can exchange for a new skill.”

“Exchange for wildlife identification LV MAX.”

[Ding! Successfully exchanged 10,000 popularity for wildlife identification LV MAX!]

Just like before, 10,000 points of popularity were consumed, and a large amount of knowledge surged into Bell’s mind.

At this moment, his mind was filled with information about all creatures in the world. Be it common or uncommon animals, their habits and characteristics were all imprinted in his mind.

“With this skill, survival in the wild will be much safer.”

What was the greatest danger in the wild? Apart from having no basic resources for survival, it was naturally the various wild animals.

After understanding the habits of these animals, Bell could avoid snakes, insects, rats, and ants to the greatest extent. Even if he could not avoid them, he would know their weaknesses or what they were afraid of, greatly increasing his chances of survival.

Feeling the information in his head, Bell suddenly thought.

“I can take the opportunity to introduce some animals that they need to pay attention to in the wild.”

Although there were still people constantly commenting on the screen in Bell’s stream, without the initial novelty, the popularity had decreased slightly.

He had to use new information to attract the new audience.

“When you are out in the wilderness, you have to be careful when you walk in the grass.”

“It’s late autumn now. All kinds of snakes will roam frequently during this time. They are even more active because they will soon enter hibernation, and have to hunt enough food.”

“When exploring the way in the grass, you have to use some tools to scout ahead like what I am doing with this stick. This way, you can avoid being attacked immediately.”

Seeing how Bell was explaining seriously, everyone was moved.

“He knows so much. He also has chubby little hands. He looks so cute holding a wooden stick.”

“You’re trying to trick me into getting a child, where can I get a girlfriend?”

“Previous poster, do you have to have a girlfriend to have a child? I’m 28 years old, is it normal for me to not have a girlfriend yet?”

“Previous poster, it’s basically useless. I suggest you delete your account and start over.”

“The neighboring auntie tipped the host 100 light sticks¹.”

“The host’s female fan tips the host 200 light sticks.”

Seeing the comments coming to life again, Bell smiled.

At that moment, there was a movement in the grass ahead. Bell stopped.

“Shh, lower your voice. There’s something in the grass. Let’s see what it is.”

It was not only Bell. Everyone in front of the screen also noticed the movement in the grass and were attracted to it.

“Little friend, be careful. Snakes are common in this primeval forest. Run quickly.”

“Host, run quickly. If you are bitten by a poisonous snake in here, there’s no way to rescue you immediately.”

Many people on the screen began to worry about Bell. They were worried that some poisonous creatures might appear from the bushes.

But Bell did not care. He only gestured for the audience to keep quiet.

“Everyone, don’t panic. Let’s see if it is just some wild hares.”

“Maybe our dinner will be settled.”

Bell approached the bush cautiously.

However, at this moment, there was a hissing sound.

The grass rustled again. A two-meter-long, green-brown serpent with a yellow line on its back appeared before everyone.

Because the camera was too close, the long serpent seemed to suddenly appear in front of everyone, wanting to crawl out of the screen.

Everyone in front of the screen was shocked.

“F*ck! F*cking hell! I almost pissed my pants.”

“Previous poster, you almost did, but I did it already.”

“Little friend, run quickly. This might be a poisonous snake. It will be troublesome if you are bitten.”

The audience was worried about Bell’s safety.

Bell smiled when he saw the snake.

“Everyone, don’t worry. This is Zaocys dhumnades, not a poisonous snake. Looking at its size, it should be an adult. My dinner will be it.”

“Snake meat is delicious. Fresh snake meat is like a juicy steak, and is filled with protein.”

Bell even licked his lips.
