Chapter 28: Discovered A Blind Spot
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the livestream, there were more and more comments.
“Oh my god, my breathing almost stopped just now.”
“I think they’ll start fighting anytime.”
“Didn’t Clark bully a woman last time? Why is he so easygoing now?”
“Hehe, look at how much David knows. He’s not a simple character.”
“That’s true. Those who know more will be respected if they survive here.”
“I always thought there would be conflict between them. I didn’t expect them to get along so well.”
“They even made a deal. Wouldn’t that make them two groups of people who are mutually beneficial?”
“Very likely. If I were Morton and company, I’d be willing to trade with David and become partners too.”
“Am I the only one who thinks it’s Morton and company who dodged a bullet? Are they David’s match?”
“Is the person above crazy? Are Morton and company people that the bunch of trashy murderers who bully the weak can compare to?”
“One is a special forces soldier, the other a boxer. Even the scrawny Clark is a fencing expert.”
“No matter how good David is, it’s impossible that he’ll be a match for a professional, okay?”
The originally harmonious livestream started arguing again because of these few comments.
It was like the internet was constantly asking whether Zhang Wuji1 or Guo Jing[2.The fictional protagonist of The Legend of the Condor Heroes by Jin Yong]was more formidable.
When David returned to his lodging, the first thing he did was to put the clay soil away.
It was fine even if it dried up, he just needed to add water when he was going to use it.
He didn’t like owing people favors, so headed to Clark and company’s territory with a cage in hand.
He placed the item on their territory and left without saying anything.
Given that they were patrolling anywhere at any time, they should be able to find the cage very soon.
This group of people was obviously not simple. He did not want to get into a conflict with them now.
It was best to keep a distance just like this.
He hung the piece of meat on the tree and heard Luca hiss again.
David said helplessly, “I’ve only been out for a while. and you’re hungry again?”
“Sss, sss, sss…” Luca could not speak and could only respond to him with even louder cries.
“Did I raise a four-legged gold-devouring beast?” David was helpless. He thought for a moment and decided to feed it with the food from Clark.
Do not easily eat food from other people, this was what all parents had to teach their children.
The other party gave it so readily that David couldn’t be sure if there was no problem with it so it was most suitable for Luca to eat it.
Luca could smell the meat. It was still a little repulsed, but it had to eat for its hungry stomach.
In just a few bites, it had eaten half of the meat. His appetite seemed to be much greater than before.
David felt speechless as he looked at Luca whose appetite was getting increasingly better.
This little fellow was eating almost as much as he, as an adult, did.
David couldn’t help but remind it, “I’d advise you not to be picky with your food or I won’t be able to afford to raise you.”
Luca wagged its tail. It had eaten its fill and was lying contentedly in its cage.
David also ate some food and filled himself.
He twisted the thin strands he had pulled out of the vines earlier together and they became hemp ropes.
Tougher vines had to be used when making shoes to prevent them from breaking easily.
When he had nothing to do, he would twist the hemp fibres between his palms. The amount he had prepared originally was already enough.
But now that he had to make the shoes for those three people, he had to prepare more of them.
Of course, the premise was that they had to bring out something of the same value to trade for them.
If they do not meet his requirements, there would be no need for him to be a good person either.
He first made shoes for his feet and before he knew it, it was already night.
In the valley.
There was a fire in front of Morton and company.
It burned fiercely, chasing away the mosquitoes in the surroundings.
They ate roasted jerky and drank fresh water.
Clark smacked his lips and said, “If only we had some wine at this time.”
Andrew snorted through his nostrils.
“Do you think I’m dreaming?” Clark shot back.
“If not?”
“As long as you give me some dry rations, I promise I can make wine for you. If you have the ability, go and find some for me?” Clark chuckled.
“Lame,” Andrew said disapprovingly.
Clark looked at Morton and asked in surprise, “Brother, what’s wrong with you today? Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“I’m thinking about something,” said Morton.
“What is it?”
“Is there anyone else in our area?”
“There should be more,” Clark said confidently.
100 people had come to the island and the huge island could accommodate tens of millions of people. Staying here was like being a needle in a haystack.
Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult to encounter other people, but they still met one.
Morton muttered, “I suspect he’s the fellow I met at the water source over there the last time.”
“Hmm?” Clark couldn’t remember what it was about.
“The person who stole one of your wolf legs the last time?” Andrew understood what he was talking about.
“That’s right.” Morton nodded and said in a deep voice, “It was just that it was slightly dark that time, so I couldn’t see his appearance clearly.”
“So what if it’s him?” Clark countered.
“The last time I saw him, he was just a small fry. He wasn’t worth my attention.”
At this point, Morton’s eyes turned cold. “But now, I feel that he is much stronger than before.”
Andrew frowned as well. “We’ve only been on the island for eight days. How did he grow so quickly?”
“Don’t underestimate anyone. They will all be our greatest opponents,” Morton said solemnly.
Clark also pulled back his train of thought and said in a low voice, “Does this mean that the couple from the last time came from his direction too?”
Andrew was slightly stunned. He frowned and nodded lightly. “That’s right. They came from there the last time.”
“In that case, the Specter Dragon must have gone to his area.” Clark’s expression became even graver at this point
Morton nodded. “That seems to be the case.”
Clark’s eyes widened. “That’s the Specter Dragon. It’s a vengeful creature. It appeared in front of that kid, but he wasn’t crushed to death? Nor was he killed?”
Unless the three of them had taken precautions beforehand, they would not be a match for the Specter Dragon either.
However, that brat was actually able to escape from the hands of the Specter Dragon. This meant that he was very capable.
However, Morton frowned and said coolly, “Don’t make a big fuss about him, and don’t imagine things that you’ve never seen before.”
Clark and Andrew faltered, then realized that they might be thinking too much.
It was obvious that David was younger. He had flesh on his body, but he was still very thin.
How could such a person be a match for the Specter Dragon?
