Survival of the Nation: My luck was a tiny bit worse.

It was still early, so the two rested for a while, ate something, and replenished their energy.

Overjoyed with their haul, Chen Hao was practically bursting with excitement. He barely chewed the jerky in his mouth, and while flipping through a map, he asked Ou Yun, "Big brother! Shouldn't we venture further in?"

He was pointing to the core area of ​​the bushes.

"Hassan marked this spot before. He said there was a purple area on the ground, but he didn't know what it was."

"Purple?"

Ou Yun thought to himself, "It's purple again—isn't this the villain's signature color?"

But this did indeed pique his interest. Villains are great; if he encounters a villain sooner, he might be able to get some good loot.

"Let's go take a look!"

The two pressed their advantage and crossed the last patch of bushes.

Before we even reached our destination, a strange fragrance wafted through the air.

Chen Hao immediately became alert. "Big brother, can you smell it?"

But the older brother was clutching a large, cold-brand dried fish in his hand. He turned to look at him and asked, "What, you want some?"

"..."

Chen Hao remained silent, simply passing Ou Yun and continuing forward.

Soon, the view opened up and the purple area that Hassan had mentioned appeared.

But it wasn't a purple ground—it was a vast expanse of blooming wildflowers.

The flowers are an extremely intense purple, ranging from light to dark purple, layer upon layer, covering the entire open space.

The petals are shaped like miniature lilies, but the stamens are silvery-white. The sea of ​​flowers sways in the breeze and shimmers with tiny sparkles in the sunlight.

Goodness, this scene really left the two people present a little stunned.

The group had seen quite a bit in the forbidden area, including glowing abyssal veins, stormy black eagles crackling with lightning, and icy mist spewed by frost giants.

But this pure natural beauty was something the two of them had never seen before since arriving in this forbidden area.

Nothing special, it's just purely beautiful and smells wonderful. This must be the "distant place" in poetry and dreams!

Chen Hao was almost mesmerized by the sight. Oh, he had never seen such a beautiful view in his entire life...

A sea of ​​purple flowers—

Soon, the eldest brother's figure appeared in the sea of ​​purple flowers.

The eldest brother strode into the sea of ​​flowers, then squatted down, as if observing the structure of the flowers.

The older brother observed for a while, then made a move that did not surprise Chen Hao at all—

He picked a petal and put it in his mouth.

"..."

Chen Hao thought about it for a moment and then went over.

"What does it taste like?" he asked.

"Sweet."

Ou Yun spat it out, "It's all sweet..."

Chen Hao nodded and switched to recording mode: "Oh... then this can be used to make candied fruit."

"Or you can dry them in the sun and soak them in water to drink."

"You can also make flower cakes."

"Yes, yes."

"Brother Chen, don't just remember this, you should try it too."

Ou Yun picked a handful of flower petals and stuffed them into Chen Hao's hand.

The fragrant and soft petals actually look quite appetizing at first glance...

Chen Hao hesitated for a moment, but still put a piece in his mouth.

It really is sweet!

His eyes lit up too.

"Like grape-flavored gummy candy!"

Ou Yun laughed too, "Still a seasoned foodie!"

Dragon Kingdom Live Stream: Joy.

"Brother Chen has been completely led astray."

"Oh no, another honest guy has fallen for it!"

"Brother Chen: I came here to do scientific research, how did I become a food blogger?"

"This sea of ​​flowers is so beautiful! Can we increase the quantity tenfold?"

"Hey, are you sure your neighborhood can accommodate a sea of ​​purple flowers?"

The two lingered in the sea of ​​flowers for quite a while, truly reluctant to leave.

Chen Hao grew up in the real world, a world where even seeing greenery was rare, let alone vast fields of flowers like this.

The European Games, which has been dominated by violent styles, suddenly has a refreshing and novel approach, which is quite refreshing.

Chen Hao collected specimens of flowers of every color and also gathered a lot of seeds. He carefully put them in a cloth bag and put them into Ou Yun's spatial ring.

He also drew a map of the flower field in his notebook, marking the approximate location and density of flowers of different colors.

"Have Hassan and the others come over later and collect more to take back."

Ou Yun said no need, "Next time just ride your Thunderbird over and we'll airlift it back."

Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, wondering who Thunderbird was—then he remembered that his older brother was talking about Storm Blackhawk, and he laughed.

"Would anyone be willing to do this kind of hard labor?" As expected of the eldest brother, he's willing to do any kind of hard labor, no matter what.

"Refuse? Then I'll take out an unopened bottle of cumin powder. What will it do then?"

"That's true." Chen Hao smiled upon hearing this.

*

The flower field was quite large, and it took the two of them about two more hours to explore the core area, stopping frequently as they walked.

At the end of the sea of ​​flowers is a precipice.

Below the cliff is a wide river, crystal clear, so clear you can even see the fish in it—Team Leader Leng would definitely love it.

On the other side of the river, there was still a dense primeval forest, with tall, thick trees whose canopies blocked out the sun.

"This river... doesn't seem to be on the map."

Chen Hao carefully examined the map that Hassan had drawn.

"The areas we explored before were all on this side of the river. The forest on the other side is completely unknown territory."

"That's perfect."

Ou Yun stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down. "Let's explore this unknown area today."

"today?!"

Chen Hao turned his head and saw a setting sun.

"It's already afternoon, if we go any further, we might not be able to get back before dark—"

"If you can't go back, you can just spend the night outside."

Ou Yun replied matter-of-factly, "It's not like we haven't spent the night outside before. Our sleeping bags, tents, food, and water are all in our rings, what are you worried about?"

"Um……"

Chen Hao hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

While in the camp, although there were various things to worry about, at least there was Leng's team, Nanbei's team, and so many allies.

But now it's just him and his older brother.

If they really encounter any danger—the eldest brother will be fine, but what about him?

Although he received several attribute boosts and his physical strength was many times stronger than when he first arrived in the forbidden area, he was still far behind Ou Yun and Leng Ruolan.

Not to mention compared to those mutated beasts that can smash rocks with a single claw—

Even if he encounters a mutated beast and can't defeat it, he can still run away.

But what if you encounter someone like the Abyss Bone Demon?

Although he used to hide wherever he went when he hung out with Leng, back then the beast was just an ordinary beast!

It's like the beast suddenly started mutating after meeting the big brother!

The eldest brother and Captain Leng can handle it, but their personalities don't match up!

Seeing Chen's ever-changing expression, Ou Yun chuckled and said, "Don't overthink it, Brother Chen, have something to eat!"

Chen Hao grew increasingly upset, "Big brother, I can't eat..."
