nIn the broadcast room, be it the audience, judges, or guests, everyone was shocked when they saw the situation on the screen.

n“Oh my god, this is too dangerous. He’s just a child. Should we send special forces to rescue him?”

nThe female host said nervously. At the same time, she did not dare to be distracted as she looked at Bell’s image on the screen.

nMeeting a wild boar in the wild was definitely a huge crisis.

nA wild boar was not huge, but at its top speed, it would not be surpassed by even a top predator like a tiger for some time.

nCoupled with the terrifying tusks, it was a terrifying creature.

nIt was death if you were struck head-on, or injuries if you were even slightly touched by it.

nThe two survival experts, Bear and Ed, knew what it meant to encounter such things in the wild.

nNot to mention Bell, even they would have to escape if they were not armed and prepared.

nMoreover, Bell was only an eight-year-old child, albeit quite strong.

n“No, although we can send someone to rescue him, this contestant hasn’t sent a distress signal. We can’t find his exact location.”

nBell was sitting on a tree branch.

nThe wild boar that had been circling the tree seemed to have left.

nHowever, Bell did not go down.

nHe could not be sure if this wild boar had really left.

nMany viewers in the live-stream began to send comments.

n“Host, hurry up and send a distress signal. Get the organizer to send a rescue team.”

n“These wild creatures can’t be dealt with without firearms.”

n“Yeah, host, even a survival expert can’t do anything about this situation.”

nEveryone suggested to Bell.

nAfter all, Bell was only an eight-year-old child. They felt that Bell’s performance was outstanding enough. It could only be said that he was unlucky to encounter a wild boar.

nBut Bell only smiled when he saw the comments.

n“It’s not even dawn yet, and there are still many wild beasts hiding in the forest. We should try our best not to alert them.”

nBell leaned carefully against the thick tree trunk and looked around warily.

nIt was not completely safe on the tree, but it could prevent the attacks of most beasts.

nUnderstanding the danger, the audience did not dare to continue disturbing Bell.

nSoon, the sky turned bright, and a ray of sunlight shone through the dense leaves into the forest.

nAt the same time, a voice sounded in Bell’s ears.

n“Ding… Congratulations to the host for signing in!”

nTrap Setting Skill LVMAX

nHearing the system’s voice, the corners of Bell’s mouth revealed a rare smile.

nKnowledge about traps appeared in Bell’s mind. He felt like a hunter who had been hunting for many years.

nBut soon, Bell noticed something unusual.

nUnlike the previous rewards, this time, there was no specific way to set traps.

n“What’s wrong with the system this time? Why are there only techniques and no specific method to set up the traps?”

nBell asked inwardly.

n“The trap setting skill is a major classification. The specific method to set it needs to be exchanged with popularity points.”

nBell rolled his eyes.

n“System, you profiteer!”

nChecking the prices of the traps in the system’s goods interface, Bell felt a trace of relief.

nRing trap: When the prey steps into it, the trap will contract. The more the prey struggles, the tighter the trap will be.

nSpring Hook Lock Trap: It binds the prey’s leg off the ground and lifts it up, reducing the possibility of the prey escaping.

nLure Trap: Dig a deep pit on the trail of the animals. Use common items like tree branches and moss to cover the hole. Place the bait on the cover and lay sharp objects in the pit. It can kill the prey.

nIn the end, Bell chose these three traps.

nEvery trap required 500 points of popularity.

nAfter a day’s live broadcast, Bell’s popularity score was only 2000.

n“System, you black-hearted merchant!”

nBell couldn’t help but complain again.

nIt had not been easy for him to earn some popularity points. He had wanted to exchange for some other survival skills.

nIn the end, the sign-in reward was a trap. The knowledge was there but with no matching methods.

nAlthough his heart ached, Bell still chose to exchange.

nAs Bell confirmed the information on the three skills, they quickly appeared in his mind.

nThe sky began to light up.

nSome audience members who were concerned about Bell’s safety began to persuade him.

n“Host, it’s already dawn. It’s not as dangerous as before. Why don’t you quickly send the rescue signal?”

nSome people felt that it was not safe for an eight-year-old child like Bell to face these large beasts in the primeval forest. Although Bell appeared very professional, his image made others not dare to guarantee it.

nBut Bell smiled at the comments.

n“Don’t be nervous. If we fight this wild boar bare-handed, it will be very dangerous. But we can use other methods. Our luck today isn’t too bad. We might even be able to eat wild pork.”

nThe audience was stunned when they heard Bell’s words. Then, they reacted.

n“What host? This can’t be a joke. That’s a wild boar, not a wild rabbit.”

n“Yeah, if you’re not careful, you might lose your life.”

n“My grandfather used to be an old hunter. He told me that if you encounter tigers, black bears, and wild boars in the wild, you have to run away. Even if you have a gun, it can be dangerous.”

n“That’s right, that’s right. Host, even the old hunters don’t dare to do this. You shouldn’t try it.”

nAlthough the audience wanted to watch the show, they could not bear to see someone die.

nNo one believed that an 8-year-old could hunt wild boars alone.

nBut Bell was determined.

nHe carefully climbed down from the tree and looked around.

nHe bent down and checked the footprints left by the wild boar as well as all the surrounding resources.

n“Today, I’ll teach everyone how to set traps in the wild.”

n“The resources for traps in the wild are very scarce. We have to find suitable materials to replace them.”

nBell had already thought of how to set the traps he had just obtained.

nFor the ring trap, he did not have the hemp rope. Fortunately, there were some thick and sturdy plants around, so Bell made them into hemp ropes.

nIt was best to use springs for the spring hook lock trap. But same as the ring trap, he did not have the tool.

nFortunately, the thick trees were tough enough.

nHe could also replace the materials with some suitable branches.

nAs for the sharp objects for the lure trap, it was relatively simple. This place was not far from the bamboo forest. In ancient times, some hunters would use bamboo as sharp weapons.

nSoon, Bell gathered all the materials.

nIt was time to arrange the traps.
