Chapter 76 - Looking for Water Source
Chapter 76 – Looking for Water Source
Hearing Bell say that they could survive here by eating clams and oysters, the fans who had watched Bell’s live broadcast before laughed.
“Brothers, our lives have improved.”
“There is no need to eat snakes and insects anymore…”
“I hereby announce that Wilderness Survival is officially renamed as Food Exploration.”
“I suddenly feel that living on this desolate island seems to be a good choice.”
“Yeah, and he even has so many beautiful women to spend time with!”
Some of the audience teased.
Bell smiled.
“After we resolve the three issues of freshwater, food, and shelter, we can consider how to leave this island.”
“The safest way to leave such a deserted island is to climb to the high ground of this island and start a fire. Then, we can wait for the passing planes to see us and come down to rescue us.”
“But this method is too reliant on luck.”
“If no plane passes by here, it will be difficult for us to survive without food and water.”
“Therefore, we have to think of other ways.”
“The most reliable method is to create a bamboo raft.”
“Although this method is a little risky, it is better than betting on luck.”
With that, Bell stood up and turned to look at Scarlett Johansson and the other women.
“What’s wrong, Bell? Do you need our help? It’s okay, just tell us.”
As she spoke, Natalie Portman stroked the hair beside her ear, perfectly revealing her mature side.
Coupled with the faint smile on the corner of her mouth, even though Bell was still underage, he could not help but feel his mouth dry.
The audience also saw Natalie Portman’s expression and were instantly fascinated.
“F*ck, I suddenly feel like the production team created this round for us audience!”
“The next time there is this kind of round, I want to sign up as well.”
Many audience members screamed at the camera.
On the screen, Scarlett Johansson seemed to notice something unusual. She rolled her eyes and quickly stood in front of Bell.
She whispered in Bell’s ear.
“You are not old, but you already have bad intentions.”
Bell finally realized that he had lost his composure.
Looking at Natalie Portman now, he saw a teasing smile on her face.
Bell also reacted. Clearly, the other party had done it on purpose.
‘F*ck, I was tricked. This Natalie Portman is definitely evil. She doesn’t even let children off.’
It was not Bell’s fault. The four beauties themselves were very attractive.
In addition to the deliberate temptation, although Bell’s body was not mature, his actual mental age was not young at all. He naturally could not withstand such temptation.
Fortunately, Bell reacted after being reminded by Scarlett.
Rubbing his nose awkwardly, Bell chose to forget what had happened.
“Alright, our mission now is to formulate a plan.”
“Let’s check our equipment first. The production team only gave us a set of clothes, a backpack, a canteen, and a dagger.”
“They are really stingy.”
“We need to find a water source first.”
“Although we have just found a few coconuts, they can only be used as temporary replenishment. They are not enough for us to use as a long-term water source.”
“Since it’s a team competition, let’s complete this mission together. This way, the efficiency will be higher.”
“Scarlett, leave the search for water to me. The few of you find something to eat on the shore. Remember, if you’re not confident, don’t go into the water. It can be very dangerous here.”
Seeing Bell’s serious expression, the girls also nodded seriously to show that they understood.
“Although this island is not big, it is not small either. I will leave some marks on my way. Try not to leave this place.”
“Also, be careful of the other teams. You can give up on resources if necessary.”
Bell reminded them of the dangers they could encounter.
Seeing Bell acting like a little adult, the others smiled and nodded.
“Don’t worry, we all know. Moreover, this is a show, not a real wilderness survival. There shouldn’t be a need to be so crazy as to attack others for food, right?”
Scarlett Johansson thought nothing of it.
Bell shook his head and said nothing else.
This was indeed not a real wilderness survival. As long as the contestants said they would withdraw from the competition, their lives would not be in danger.
But never try to test human nature.
There was only one outcome for doing so – a massive disappointment.
Bell decided to not leave too far, so that he could reach them fast if something happened.
With this in mind, Bell stopped hesitating and began to search for water.
Carrying the backpack given by the production team, Bell walked deeper into the uninhabited island.
While walking, Bell did not forget to observe the surroundings and explain to the audience.
“Looking at the terrain here, this should be a deserted island formed by a volcanic eruption.”
“On such an island, it is very difficult to find a water source that flows from underground to surface.”
“Therefore, our only choice is to see if we can find puddles formed by rain.”
“If a rainstorm has happened recently, we should be able to find them.”
As he spoke, Bell found a tree branch and broke it, using it to scout the way.
“On such a deserted island, everyone has to be especially careful, especially when walking in the dense forest. There are many poisonous snakes here. Even saltwater crocodiles native to Australia and New Guinea might appear here.”
Bell explained seriously as he pushed aside the weeds in front of him.
As the program progressed, the videos of the contestants in the broadcast room were already shown on the big screen.
The most eye-catching part was Bell’s live broadcast.
This was also the effect that the production team had deliberately arranged.
After all, they had invited so many celebrities. If they did not give some close-ups, it would be a waste of resources.
In the production team’s office, the few people who had made the decision earlier were looking at the tablet in their hands.
The screen was showing Wilderness Survival.
The man who looked like the leader asked,
“How is it? How’s the viewership ratings compared to before?”
He was very concerned about this, after all he was the one who suggested this group competition.
