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

Chapter 83: System’s New Function, Catching Oysters

Bell was very satisfied with his various survival skills.

But an eight-year-old’s body was always a weakness.

Without enough strength, his survival options would be limited to a certain extent.

Fortunately, he had the system’s help. Perhaps he could find some solutions.

The system’s electronic voice sounded in Bell’s head.

“Host, continue to accumulate popularity. The system will open new functions.”

“Host’s current popularity score: 926.”

“Once you reach 1,000 points, you can activate the shop function.”

Bell’s eyes lit up.

“There are more new functions?”

“926, just a little more.”

After such a long time, Bell was familiar with the system’s popularity points.

The growth of the system’s popularity points relied mainly on two aspects.

The first was rewards from fans.

The second point was to increase the number of fans.

According to the number of fans, every 10,000 more fans, he would gain a little popularity points.

Originally, his number should be enough to activate the new shop system, but because he had exchanged for some skills, it had not been activated yet.

The system’s exchange center only had some basic survival skills.

There was nothing to increase his physical attributes.

However, from the system’s words, it seemed like the system’s functions were yet to be fully activated.

“Maybe when the new function is activated, I can improve my physical condition.”

With this in mind, Bell looked forward to it.

“Looks like I have to work hard to increase my fans.”

The night passed peacefully.

The five of them took turns to guard the night. Nothing happened that night.

The other contestants who had been secretly observing Bell did not do anything at night.

Feeling the sea breeze, Bell gradually woke up. He stretched his waist and stood up.

The weather was not bad today.

The sunlight on the sea was also abnormally bright.

Even in his previous life, Bell had never been to the sea.

Not to mention seeing the scene of the rising sun over the sea.

Bell was a little dazed.

At the same time, Scarlett and the others woke up.

As the few of them woke up, the live broadcast room slowly became lively.

“The rising sun is quite beautiful.”

“The recording equipment of this program is really good. The quality is so good.”

“Host, what are you eating for breakfast?”

The sun rose slowly. At dawn, the island that had seemed a little silent earlier was filled with vitality again.

Some creatures that only moved in the day crawled out of their nests.

From time to time, they could hear bird calls.

“It’s rare to see such a beautiful scene. This can’t be seen in the city.”

Natalie Portman had already woken up. She walked to Bell and looked at the sun on the sea’s surface.

“Alright, everyone, today is going to be hard. There are many things to do.”

“We’re going to move to the high ground of this island and start a fire.”

“But before that, we have to resolve our breakfast problem and ensure that we have enough stamina to complete this task.”

Scarlett looked at him in confusion.

“But we’ve already finished eating what we had.”

Natalie and the others also nodded.

The coconut flesh yesterday was not much and could not remove their hunger at all.

Their stomachs were already growling in the middle of the night.

“Then we have to find some food first?”

Searching for food on this island did not seem to be a simple task. It might be a long time before they find food.

Bell smiled.

“Don’t worry. Didn’t I say this before? Our backs are against the sea, and food is not a problem.”

With that, Bell turned his gaze to a reef on the beach.

“There is plenty of food on the rocks by the sea for us to eat.”

“It was a little late yesterday. It’s not safe to search by the reef at night, so I didn’t go. But we can search now.”

“We should be able to find some sea urchins, shells, and small fish.”

“By the way, I can teach everyone a small trick.”

“If you are in the wilderness, try your best not to waste your energy catching some prey, because in this situation, your energy expenditure might exceed the energy replenishment from the prey.”

“Try to eat things that are easy to find and gather.”

Bell had already walked to the reef by the sea.

The others also followed.

The few of them began to search around and quickly found something.

“Look here.”

The camera zoomed in and Bell took out his hand from the seawater. A black oyster was in his hand.

“Oysters usually like attaching to these rocks. Moreover, these things are slow. As long as we find them, we will definitely be able to get them. We can find more of them here.”

In less than half an hour, the five of them had caught dozens of oysters.

Seeing that they had enough, the few of them stopped.

“Alright, they are about enough for us to fill our stomachs. Let’s leave it at that for now.”

“We will boil some water and cook the oysters.”

There was still some charcoal left from the previous night’s fire. Bell did not need to spend as much effort as yesterday to start another fire.

“Host, aren’t these oysters eaten raw? Why did you start a fire?”

Some of the audience who lived by the sea were very curious. They had seen such things before.

Bell shook his head when he saw this comment.

“Logically speaking, oysters can be eaten raw, and it tastes a little sweet.”

“But eating like this can easily cause diarrhea.”

“This might not be fatal under normal circumstances. After all, we can hydrate ourselves at any time.”

“But if you suffer from diarrhea on such a desolate island, that will be troublesome.”

“So we still have to cook them to kill bacteria and worms.”

Everyone reacted.

It was not the time to chase after the taste. The most important thing now was to survive.

Bell filled the canteen with seawater.

The water was quickly boiled, and the oysters started opening up after being cooked.

Scarlett and the others looked at the oysters in the water and couldn’t help but lick their lips.

They were already extremely hungry. They had not eaten a decent meal for the entire day and night.

“Alright, it’s time to eat. The seawater can cook the oysters. There’s no need to add other seasonings since the seawater is salty. It should taste good.”

As he spoke, Bell took out an oyster and cut open its shell with the dagger.

The white and tender oyster meat inside the shell was revealed to everyone.
