nThe female host looked at Ed and Bear and asked, “Our contestant, Bell, has already left the island. I believe the audience is very curious. I want to ask on behalf of the audience if, in your experience, there is a chance of Bell being saved?”

nEd and Bear were experts in wilderness survival, so they naturally had the right to speak about this.

nIn this world’s wilderness survival, the two of them could be said to have authority.

nAs long as the two of them made a judgment, they rarely made mistakes.

nLi Ziqi pricked up her ears when she heard the host’s question.

nAfter interacting with Bell for a while, Li Ziqi treated Bell like her younger brother.

nSeeing Bell sail so rashly, although Li Ziqi criticized inwardly, she could not do anything.

nShe could only pray for Bell’s safety.

nTherefore, she was paying attention to Bear and Ed’s evaluation.

nShe wanted to hear Bell’s chances from their mouths.

nBut this time, Bear and Ed disappointed her.

nBear and Ed shook their heads.

nSeeing the two of them like this, everyone was shocked.

nHer heart was in her mouth.

n“What’s going on? Ed and Bear aren’t talking. Is Bell in danger?”

n“No way, did Bell forget something?”

n“Sigh, he is still too young. If it were authoritative figures like Ed and Bear, there definitely wouldn’t be a problem.”

n“I don’t think so. Everyone has seen Bell’s performance these days. His level might be higher than Ed and Bear’s!”

nFor a moment, everyone was discussing. Some stood for Bell, while others stood for Ed and Bear.

n“Can you guys stop arguing? Ed and Bear haven’t even spoken yet. Maybe it’s not what you guys are thinking at all.”

nThere were also many people who were rational.

nSeeing Ed and Bear shake their heads, the female host’s heart tightened.

nWithout waiting for the instructions of the production team, she asked impatiently.

n“Ed, Bear, are you saying that Bell might not be able to pass this Wilderness Survival test?”

n“Did he miss something?”

nThe beautiful host had the same thoughts as the others.

nThey felt that Bell had forgotten something that made the two of them behave like this.

nBear said.

n“No, everyone is mistaken. The reason we shook our heads is not to say that Bell did anything wrong.”

n“On the contrary, Bell’s performance this time is perfect as usual.”

nEd also nodded in agreement.

n“That’s right. After so many shows, Bell can be said to be the most professional contestant I’ve ever seen.”

nThe two wilderness survival specialists gave Bell a very high evaluation.

nBut it was because of this that everyone was confused again.

nSince Bell was so outstanding, why were the two of them shaking their heads when the host asked if Bell could successfully escape?

nEd seemed to guess everyone’s thoughts and smiled strangely.

n“The reason why we didn’t answer this lady’s question is that we can’t judge Bell’s current situation.”

n“The weather at sea is unpredictable. A storm can happen at any time.”

n“In fact, if I were alone here, I would probably choose to wait for the plane to rescue me because this is the safest method.”

n“Once you fall into the sea, it’s impossible to rescue you in time.”

nEveryone finally understood.

nIt turned out that Bell had not done anything wrong, but he had chosen a more aggressive method.

nEveryone expressed understanding.

nEd was talking about waiting for rescue because he was alone. Moreover, there would be no competitors.

nBut Bell was different.

nBeside Bell were four noobs in the wilderness survival field.

nThe resources consumed by the five of them increased exponentially, be it food or water.

nThere were not enough resources on the deserted island to support them while they waited for a plane to pass.

nGoing out to sea was their only way out.

nAfter hearing Ed and Bear’s explanation, everyone was worried.

nIn the leader’s office, the man was holding a phone.

n“Send the rescue team out. Once anything happens to Bell, begin the rescue immediately.”

nThe television station was betting on Bell. They would not allow anything to happen to him.

nCurrently, it looked like it would not be easy for Bell to bring Scarlett and the other three to the civilized world. He had achieved his goal and could not let anything happen to them.

nThe subordinates naturally did not dare to be careless.

nBefore anything happened to Bell, the rescue team had already begun to move.

nBut Bell did not know about this.

nAt this moment, Bell was still sitting on the bamboo raft with Scarlett and the others.

nHe was chatting with the audience.

n“Now that our bamboo raft is sailing on the sea, I am not expecting to return to the civilized world smoothly. Because with our bamboo raft, it’s almost impossible to sail back to the shore. I am mostly looking to encounter ships.”

n“Although the various countries don’t have explicit rules that the ships traveling at sea have to rescue those in danger, it is an unspoken understanding for them to do it.”

n“I believe that most of you don’t know that there are many ships that meet mishaps every year in the sea. No one can guarantee that they will be safe. With the unspoken rule of saving those in distress, the chances of survival of the crew around the world will increase. Therefore, no one will break this rule.”

n“Even the most ferocious pirates will not break this rule.”

nBell knew very well that the desolate island he had been on was 500 nautical miles away from the shore.

nNot to mention a small bamboo raft, even taking a speedboat would take eight hours to reach it.

nWhat was a speedboat? 50 nautical miles per hour.

nHe looked at his bamboo raft.

nBell could only chuckle.

nFortunately, the season was not bad, and there should be many people taking a vacation.

nTherefore, the probability of encountering a ship was higher.

nBell was betting on this.

nScarlett and the others heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Bell’s explanation.

nThey really thought that Bell was going to take the bamboo raft and sail back to the civilized world.

nIf that was the case, the few of them would probably have no choice but to give up.

nTime passed slowly, and Bell’s bamboo raft was getting further and further away from the uninhabited island.

nAt that moment, the surroundings were already a vast sea. There was nothing else.

nA lonely feeling surrounded the few of them, making them feel abnormally uneasy.
