Chapter 459: Rendezvous
Su Xiao was lying on the ground, and when he stretched out his hand, he couldn't even see five of his fingers.
He didn't want to build a fire. He didn't find a cave nearby, and it was very unwise to build a fire in the open.
And even though he had drunk a lot of water, he was still hungry.
There was only a small piece of dried meat left in his backpack, but after Su Xiao ate all of this dried meat, not only did his hunger not subside, it also became even stronger.
Taking out an iron box from his backpack, Su Xiao carefully took out a golden fruit.
Earlier, he was in too much of a hurry and didn't check the characteristics of this fruit.
And as soon as he saw the first three lines of its description, Su Xiao felt like he had hit the jackpot.
[Fruit of the Sun.

Su Xiao fell into deep thought. This fruit could grant very good improvements. A 100 point increase in health wasn't a very strong improvement, but a hundred point increase in mana coupled with a fifteen percent increase in fire and cold resistance was a very strong improvement.
And more importantly, this fruit could be transformed into another item.
Consuming this fruit directly wasn't a bad option, but this option of using such a good fruit was too unjustified.
Su Xiao's potion-making skill had reached level 20, but he was too obsessed with his sword and his power to further reveal potion-making, but that didn't mean that he didn't understand potion-making at all.
On the contrary, there were many different formulas and knowledge in Su Xiao's mind.
But his current position wasn't suitable for creating a new potion. He had to at least find a cave, as well as a reliable guard.
Of course, he had reliable guards, and although they weren't strong, he didn't have much of a choice.
After handing the fruit back, Su Xiao stood up and continued walking towards the tribe. He needed to meet Bubtney. Although his ability to hide was impressive, his combat skills were not so-so, or so Su Xiao thought.
After another five hours, Su Xiao found himself not far from the Yasenman Tribe.
He did not immediately enter the tribe's territory, for Bubtni was clearly not one of these natives.
Barr couldn't be trusted. Su Xiao only made arrangements with him to get the compass and for the sake of revealing some secrets.
Su Xiao picked up a thin wooden stick, found an animal bone nearby, and began gently tapping the bone with a wooden stick.
*Knock, knock, knock~*
After about ten minutes there was a sharp rustling sound around Su Xiao and he noticed a stealthy figure.
Due to the fact that this night was too dark, Su Xiao wasn't able to see Bubtni's appearance clearly, but after it started rubbing against his legs happily, Su Xiao saw that the color of Bubtni's fur had changed.
It was no longer black and white, but gray and black.
Naturally, it didn't change color, but was simply covered in dirt and dust.
— Woof~, "Bubtny howled excitedly and started actively circling around Su Xiao, his eyes filled with expectation and almost wanted to say," Master, I'm hungry».
Unfortunately, Su Xiao was also hungry and didn't have any food on him.
Su Xiao's entire body was covered in dried blood and Bubtni was covered in mud, and both of them were so hungry that their bellies were already stuck to their backs.
After successfully reuniting with Bubtni, Su Xiao decided to solve hygiene, nutrition, and clothing issues first.
Leaving Bubtni to wait near the tribe, Su Xiao went to the aborigines alone and returned ten minutes later with a large metal pot.
This pot looked rough and looked more like a kind of shield, but according to Barr, it was a pot.
When Su Xiao met up with Barr, he politely declined the Aboriginal food. He and the Yasenman tribe had a very shaky relationship, and food in such a dangerous place was highly prized, not to mention that the Yasenman Tribe's food was very ... suspicious.
Next to the Yasenman tribe, there was a mountain spring with clear fresh water, and where there was clear water, there was also food. Given Su Xiao's abilities, it wouldn't be difficult to get food in a place like this.
The Yasenman tribe was going to fight the Zerg tomorrow, and they had a kind of agreement with Barr. After the battle, he and Barr will have to travel deep into the Zerg lair..
The reward for this sortie will be a compass, with which he will be able to go to the bridge..
Starting tomorrow Su Xiao will be able to reveal some of the secrets of the Yasenman Tribe.
Seeing Su Xiao walking with a" pot "above his head, a series of question marks seemed to appear above Bubtney's head, and his big watery eyes looked at Su Xiao with helplessness and almost wanted to say," Master, I'm just chewing iron for fun, but I don't eat iron».
— Let's go, we'll have a hearty dinner soon, " Su Xiao said and looked at Bubtney who was full of doubts before leading him to the mountain spring.
----
The clear water flowed down, and Su Xiao stood under the stream of water and washed away all the excess from his body.
After washing away the dried blood and dirt on his body, Su Xiao felt much better.
Bubtney was forced to stand under the water next to him. He didn't want to bathe, because the water from the mountain spring was too cold.
The pure mountain spring water turned black after washing Bubtni's body. After a while, Bubtny once again began to have a brilliant black and white fur.
After shaking off the water on his body, Bubtney looked around, but found that Su Xiao was gone, so Bubtney stayed where he was.
Half an hour later, Su Xiao returned with a large bird and some green potted plants.
This large bird was half a meter long and it ran very fast on the ground.
Su Xiao had to set up a trap to catch her.
Soon a bonfire was lit. The large pot that looked more like a shield became a pot of boiling water, where Su Xiao soon began to throw sliced meat, after which he gradually began to add ordinary mushrooms, some plants, vegetables...
An hour later, a large "pot" with fragrant mushroom and vegetable broth was already on the fire. Although Su Xiao only had salt for the seasoning, Bubtney ate almost half of the pot without taking his head out of it.
After finishing his soup, Bubtny lay down on the ground with a satisfied face. After being forced to leave Su Xiao's side, he was left all alone in the red soil territory. He didn't know where he needed to go, and he didn't dare run. He had no food or water, and during his journey he fell into a swamp and almost drowned in it.
After taking a shower and eating half a pot, Su Xiao's energy and strength started to recover quickly, and since Bubtney was now around, due to the effect of his aura, all the wounds on his body started to heal much faster.
From the beginning of this trial to now, he had always been on a knife edge and now he wanted to know where the other contractors were.
And yes, Su Xiao's guesses were correct — 380 of the 402 contractors still alive were in the easiest zone.
All those contractors who landed in the most dangerous place on this island, the Black Forest, died within half an hour of landing. The red soil area didn't have such terrifying stats, but many contractors who weren't strong enough ended up dying.
Finding a cave nearby, Su Xiao sealed the entrance.
Bubtney sat at the entrance of the cave, his ears pricked up.
In front of Su Xiao, there were several empty test tubes and several different containers on the ground. All those empty test tubes were left behind after drinking potions. If he was in any normal derived world, he would have thrown them out long ago, but this world was an exception.
Su Xiao looked at the Sun fruit and thought about it.
