nAfter climbing over the rope bridge, Scarlett felt like she had just survived a disaster. She patted her chest lightly.

nThen she rolled her eyes at Bell in lingering fear.

nBut Bell ignored her.

n“Alright, we’ve saved two days of time. Let’s continue moving forward. I hope our luck is good.”

nThe two of them stopped wasting time.

nScarlet walked beside Bell and sighed.

n“I won’t carry out any weight-loss plans after I return. Hunger is really unbearable.”

nThe two of them had only chewed on some tree roots and leaves. There was not much nutrition at all, and their stamina was barely maintained.

nAfter climbing over a 300-meter-long rope bridge, their stamina was exhausted, and they were even a little exhausted.

n“Your weight loss doesn’t seem to have much effect.”

n“Who said that? You haven’t seen it! My figure is…”

nWhen Scarlett Johansson heard that her weight loss was ineffective, she wanted to retort.

nHowever, she seemed to realize something and blushed.

nThe boy in front of her had really seen her figure and saw it clearly. The atmosphere instantly fell into awkwardness.

nBell seemed to sense that his words were inappropriate. He scratched his head awkwardly and changed the topic.

nThe two of them walked one after the other. Suddenly, Bell’s eyes lit up.

n“Looks like our luck has finally improved.”

nA thick layer of snow covered a large forest.

nMany trees fell in the snow.

nClearly, an avalanche had happened here. Because of the large amount of snow, these trees were suppressed, and even the tree bark was directly peeled off. It was easier to find food in this situation. Many animals would have died in the avalanche. If he was lucky, he might be able to find fresh animal corpses to roast and eat.

nSeeing Bell’s excitement, Scarlett was infected by him and temporarily forgot about the awkward interlude.

nThe two of them walked on. Bell sniffed the air from time to time.

nDue to the cold air, there was a strange smell that was very obvious.

nSeeing Bell like this, Scarlett couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.

n“Hey, Bell, what are you doing?”

n“Don’t speak. Be quiet. There seems to be the stench of corpses here.”

nBell said seriously.

nThe stench of corpses meant that the animals were dead, and it also meant that there was food.

nHearing that, Scarlett did not dare to continue disturbing him.

n“Come with me, let’s go over and take a look.”

nBell confirmed the location of the smell and followed it.

nScarlett naturally nodded and followed. As the two of them continued forward, the stench of the corpses became clearer.

nHowever, the audience looked at the two of them twitching their noses and did not know what they were doing.

n“Everyone, I think we’re about to have food.”

n“You might not know what we were doing just now. There’s a very thick stench of a corpse here, which means that an animal died nearby.”

n“I’m very hungry. I don’t have much strength left. I have to replenish my nutrition as soon as possible.”

n“Counting the time, we haven’t eaten for nearly two days.”

nBell said to the audience.

nIn fact, because of his hunger, he did not want to say anything else.

nBut for the sake of the audience’s interaction, he still felt that he should explain to them.

nThe audience also saw Bell’s condition.

nThe comments were sent.

n“There’s no need to explain, host. Just focus on finding food and ignore us.”

nThey expressed understanding towards Bell.

nThis gave Bell some comfort.

nSoon, Scarlett and Bell saw a dead antelope.

nThe corpse had already rotted.

nSome exposed parts were filled with maggots.

nBell picked up a maggot and looked at it.

n“I think we have food. These maggots contain rich proteins. If we remove their heads, they’ll taste better.”

nHearing Bell say this, the audience couldn’t help but feel a chill.

n“F*ck! Eating maggots! Isn’t this too heavy a taste!”

nScarlett looked troubled.

nHowever, the hunger in her stomach prevented her from thinking too much. She copied Bell and grabbed two from the corpse.

nThis fat creature made her feel uncomfortable.

nHowever, compared to starvation, this physiological discomfort could only be suppressed temporarily.

nAt the thought of this, Scarlett closed her eyes and opened her mouth to eat the maggot.

nBut just as she was about to eat it, Bel snatched the maggot from her hand.

n“Hey, what are you doing?”

n“If you want to eat, you can eat first. I’ll eat the remaining.”

nScarlett thought that Bell felt that there was not enough food and wanted to snatch it from her. Although she felt an inexplicable sense of loss, she remembered that Bell had saved her life before and decided to give in. She decided to leave the greater chance of survival to Bell.

nEven many viewers thought so.

nSome of Bell’s fans were disappointed when they saw this.

nAlthough it was inevitable for a person to expose their selfish side in the face of death, they still felt some loss.

nSurvival was the greatest instinct.

nHowever, the others would still feel displeased when one resorted to selfish means for survival.

nOn the other hand, Scarlett knew how to repay kindness. Under such circumstances, she was still grateful to Bell for saving her life and was willing to give up the food.

nThis also increased everyone’s impression of her.

nHowever, what Bell said next overthrew their previous thoughts.

n“Have you become an idiot from the cold? I meant using these maggots to fish. Do you have a special diet?”

nBell took out two and handed them to Scarlett.

n“If you really want to eat them, I’ll give you these two fatter ones. At least they can replenish some nutrition.”

nBell looked pained.

nThese two fat insects were the ones he thought best of. Perhaps he could catch a big fish with them.

nHowever, since the other party had such a hobby, he might as well compromise.

nEveryone reacted.

n“Haha, I knew that Bell wouldn’t be that kind of person.”

n“The goddess is being looked down on. Bell was looking at her like he was looking at a fool. My heart aches for the goddess, but why do I feel like laughing?”

n“As expected, our Bell is so cute. Even if he let others eat insects, he chose to give the two big ones.”

n“Goddess, quickly eat. Don’t stand on ceremony. Don’t let down Bell’s good intentions.”

nThere were people joining in the fun on the screen.

nAfter knowing what Bell was thinking, Scarlett blushed.

nAt the same time, she remembered her previous thoughts and turned her head away in shame, no longer looking at Bell.
