nIn fact, if this little Arctic Fox had not encountered Bell, it would not have lived long in this snowy environment.
nAfter all, without its mother’s care, it was not old enough to hunt.
nIt was very difficult for such small animals to survive to adulthood in the wild.
nOn one hand, it was because there were no adult females to take care of them. On the other hand, it was because without protective colors, they were easier to be discovered by their natural enemies.
nArctic foxes were omnivores.
nMost of the meat was birds and hares.
nWhen food was scarce, they would also choose to eat some nuts or plant roots to fill their stomachs. Overall, it was relatively easy to feed.
nBut Bell was not on vacation, but in Wilderness Survival.
nIt was already very difficult to support himself. He was not very confident in raising the fox.
nThis little guy could only eat whatever he ate. If it really died, he could only say that this was its fate.
nThe little guy did not realize that it had been treated as a food reserve by Bell.
nSeeing that Bell had no intention of hurting him, it became active.
nArctic foxes were very resistant to the cold.
nThey could even survive in an environment of -50 °C.
nHowever, that was an adult Arctic fox.
nThe little guy in front of him was very thin and there didn’t seem to be any fat under its skin.
nIt could be estimated that its resistance to the cold was not high. It had mostly relied on some berries and grass roots to maintain itself.
nA cold wind blew past the little Arctic Fox. It seemed to feel the cold and quickly rubbed against Bell’s chest.
nAfter all, Bell’s chest was warmer.
nHowever, the little guy seemed to notice a warmer place and tried to crawl into Bell’s jacket.
nSeeing this, Bell quickly pulled the little guy out.
nThe little guy revealed a trace of grievance and whimpered at Bell.
nIt made one’s heart ache.
nBell could only throw the little guy into his backpack.
nThe backpack was waterproof and had good density, so the temperature was higher.
nA small crack appeared to maintain the flow of air.
nThe little Arctic Fox felt warm and stopped struggling.
nIt stayed obediently in his backpack.
n“Alright, now that we have a small burden, getting food is even more urgent.”
n“It’s time to set off.”
nBell extinguished the fire and continued moving.
nBut this was a makeshift torch after all. After more than ten minutes, the wood burned out and the fire was extinguished.
nBell could only turn on the night vision function in the live-stream. He could not always let the audience watch a black screen.
nIn fact, as humans continued to grasp technology and leave the wilderness, many of their abilities gradually began to deteriorate.
nAnd night vision was one of them.
nBell also yearned for this ability.
nHe had been thinking about this. If he could get this ability from the system, it would be of great help to his live broadcast.
nHe could move easily even in the middle of the night.
nHowever, for now, he still had to probe his way in the dark.
nHe walked slowly through the forest.
nBell felt his stamina quickly depleting.
nIn fact, Bell was looking forward to seeing some snow in this forest.
nBecause this way, he could see more through the reflection of light, and the surrounding environment could be distinguished.
nBut right now, this was only an extravagant hope.
nAfter walking in the forest for nearly two hours, the sky finally lit up.
nBell heaved a sigh of relief and sat down.
nHis stamina was greatly exhausted, and even his knees were sore.
nDue to the darkness, he had knocked into rocks and dead wood countless times.
nHe knew that his knees were definitely bruised.
nReserve Food in Bell’s backpack was very quiet.
nBell wondered if this little guy had fallen asleep inside.
nPed and the man’s condition could only be said to be okay.
nIn fact, in terms of endurance, Bell had a slight advantage over the two of them.
nAlthough he was petite, Bell’s stamina was not lower than the two of them.
nMoreover, judging from the thin man’s size, Bell might be stronger.
nHe took out the canteen and took two sips of water.
nThe cold water flowed down Bell’s throat and into his stomach. The bone-chilling feeling was unbearable.
nBut Bell still endured it.
n“Alright, everyone, we don’t have much time to waste. Let’s rest for a while.”
nAlong the way, Bell had been observing his surroundings to see if there was anything edible.
nBut to his disappointment, he did not find anything to eat.
nHe did not even find insects.
nJust as Bell was about to consider taking out the Reserve Food, a bush suddenly appeared in front of him. It was lush.
nWhat made him excited was that there were many small fruits at the end of the bushes.
nThis scene made Bell wonder if he had fainted from hunger and was hallucinating.
nBell and the other two quickly walked forward and sized up the bushes.
nLogically speaking, only a small portion of berries could not be eaten.
nFor example, belladonna and Barbados lilies.
nBut to be safe, Bell perked up and observed the bushes.
nSoon, with the help of the top level plant identification ability in his mind, Bell recognized what this thing was.
n“Looks like our luck has turned.
nThese are rabbiteye blueberries.
nIt looks like berries, but it is more similar to blueberries.
nThe nutritional value it contains is much higher than blueberries.
nThis species usually grows at such a low temperature.
nThe lowest growth environment of this plant can even reach -50 °C. Now, it will bring enough vitamins and sugar to the three of us and increase our motivation for the future. ”
nBell glanced at Ped and the man.
nThe three of them stopped hesitating and stuffed the fruits into their mouths.
n
