Chen Chen carefully came down from the cliff and commanded the bees to freely gather honey, leaving only 1,000 behind as guards.
It was also good to leave the bees as short-term lookouts when he went out.
The sun still shone brightly, and it was still scorching. Chen Chen rubbed his stomach. “Luckily, I ate half a watermelon in the afternoon, and I wasn’t thirsty after the long run.”
After the bees dispersed, Chen Chen did not set off immediately. Instead, he chose a short, wrist-thick tree and broke it.
He removed all the extra branches and used a stone to hit the tip at one end. A simple defensive weapon was done.
After that, Chen Chen took the wooden stick and carefully set off.
West was the only direction where the bees could find food. Therefore, Chen Chen first explored the west.
There had to be many scattered things in other places, but the bees could not distinguish anything other than food and wild animals.
Chen Chen approached the cliff and explored forward while constantly looking around.
The search in the game only required taking out some villains, and they could bring back things in half a day or a day.
But now it was up to the players to search by themselves, and if they were not careful, they might miss the supplies.
After walking for about a kilometer, Chen Chen found his first resource.
A pile of stones piled up neatly in one place.
Chen Chen was speechless. As he walked over, the system notified him that he had found [one stone material.]
“Is this the resource that the system refreshes in the wild?”
Chen Chen picked it up again and looked at it. He realized that it was really just an ordinary stone.
“Don’t the stones around the shelter smell good? I must be out of my mind to bring this thing back.”
Chen Chen threw the stone down, thought for a while, then pushed it away with his foot.
Sure enough, the system notification for one [stone material] unit disappeared.
Chen Chen nodded. “It seems that when the materials are gathered, the system will directly give the number of resources.”
Chen Chen continued walking. According to the information given by the bee, the food should be 2.5 km west of the shelter.
He still had a while’s worth of walking.
Finally, after more than 20 minutes, Chen Chen saw the food.
What was that?
[A large portion of fried chicken]
[One whole fried chicken. Thanks to the sun, the chicken is still warm.]
“Ridiculous, fried chicken! It’s still f*cking warm?!”
But when he thought about how he had transmigrated to this world, Chen Chen suppressed the ridicule in his heart and quickly walked over to pick up the fried chicken.
He picked up a drumstick and tasted it. It was quite delicious.
Then, he sighed. “My worldview has been shattered. Literally shattered. I need to understand this world better.”
The fried chicken came in a box, so Chen Chen held it and continued to explore.
However, he did not put back the drumstick in his hand. He ate it directly. After walking for so long, he was a little hungry.
As of now, Chen Chen only knew that there were beasts on the east side. He did not know anything else.
So, he started to search in a semi-circle, with the drumstick as the center.
Chen Chen could clearly see ten meters around him. As long as items came into view, the system would notify him.
Hence, the collection efficiency was still acceptable. When the search diameter was expanded to 1,300 meters, Chen Chen finally found the second good thing.
It was a Tang knife that was emitted both a modern and antique aura.
The antique aura it gave off was thanks to the various ancient aesthetic decorations that it had been imprinted with. These decorations were much more complicated than many cultural relics that had been unearthed.
The modern part of it, on the other hand, was this kind of knife that was straight, short, and sharp. It was made of special steel. The Tang dynasty really did not have such a knife.
[Tang straight steel knife]
[Forged with modern technology and exquisitely manufactured, it has high hardness and sturdy toughness. The entire length is 50 cm. It would be a divine weapon in the Tang Dynasty.]
Chen Chen was very happy. “With the knife, it will be much easier to fight against wild beasts and deal with resources.”
Chen Chen was as happy as a grade-two kid who’d bought a penknife. He held it in his hand for a while before carefully hanging it on his waist.
After that, he stopped searching. He took the knife and walked to the short tree at the side, rubbing the bark off carefully for future use.
He then used the Tang knife to cut open the top of the wooden stick, placing the blade in the middle by securing it to the bark he had just treated.
With that, a long knife handle was ready.
“If I encounter wild beasts, it will be easier to kill them.”
After taking care of the defensive equipment, Chen Chen continued his search.
However, after searching for half an hour, he still found nothing.
He looked at the time. It was already 5:12 pm.
Having eaten some fried chicken to replenish his strength on the way, he felt a little thirsty at the moment.
Chen Chen continued to search. After more than ten minutes, he found the third item.
[11 parachute cord (15 meters): There are 11 cords in one bundle. It is a combination of fireproof rope, fishing line, wax rope, and high-strength nylon rope. It is necessary for survival in the wild.]
Chen Chen did not expect to find a paracord. With this, getting things done would be much more convenient.
If he had a strong and durable paracord, Chen Chen wouldn’t have had to scrape any of the bark to fix the Tang knife just now. This could’ve saved him a lot of time.
It was a chord of extremely high toughness. A single paracord could withstand 300 kilograms, more than enough for Chen Chen.
Taking the cord, he continued his search.
However, just as he was about to go on, he received two notifications from his status panel.
[Ding! Player has been in the wilderness for four hours. In one hour, your radiation absorption from the terraformed world will reach its limit. It will have an irreversible effect on the player’s body. Player, please return to the shelter quickly.]
[Ding! Nighttime in the terraformed world will arrive in two hours. The radiation levels and beasts will increase greatly. Player must return to the shelter before then.]
Chen Chen’s expression was grave. “There’s actually such a limit?”
This terraformed world was definitely not the ordinary physical world!
“Phew!” Chen Chen let out a long breath. “Then hurry up and return. Today’s harvest is already very good.”
Chen Chen chose a path that he didn’t take before and began his return journey.
He did not expect to find new resources after walking for a short while.
[3 units of wood]
[Neatly cut, strong, and durable wood with a wide range of uses.]
Three blocks of wood were neatly stacked in a pile. Chen Chen weighed it with his hands. Although it was a little heavy, he felt that it was still within his tolerance. Using the remaining bark to tie it up, he put them on his back and headed back to the shelter.
“I can only stay outside for five hours a day, which is still a bit short,” Chen Chen thought as he walked, “But I spent a lot of time making defensive equipment today, and my searching efficiency is very low. I should have enough time to get used to it in the future, though.

“In the future, mining, fetching water, and logging activities will be greatly affected.”
After another 20 minutes, Chen Chen finally returned to the shelter.
He placed the pieces of wood on the platform of the cliff consecutively, then climbed up himself.
When all the supplies were stored in the hut, Chen Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although there were bees scouting the approximate location of the beasts, it was unsafe to be in the wild, and Chen Chen could only relax after entering the shelter..
