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

The five of them set off.

Three burly men squeezed into the back seat, bouncing with the car's movements.

Leng Ruolan focused on driving, while Ou Yun focused on dozing off.

The three of them were tense and looked nervous.

Well...

In the real world, they probably couldn't even afford to ride in a car like that.

I never expected to end up sitting in a forbidden wilderness.

It was even quite comfortable...

There was also some dried meat on the bus.

"You can eat, you're wounded, eat more."

Ou Yun rubbed his eyes and glanced at the three of them in the rearview mirror.

"Don't overthink it, consider it advance payment."

After all, setting up camp is hard work... haha.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have rushed over here!

The three of them hesitated before agreeing, their feelings a mixture of excitement and complexity.

Excited, aren't they? They've finally managed to latch onto a powerful figure!

This is a good thing!

Wasn't that what they were thinking before?

I want to go and seek refuge with my elder brother, but alas, I lack the means and resources.

Now look what's happened, the big brother has just appeared out of nowhere!

How wonderful, double happiness!

As long as they focus on doing practical things for their elder brother, their relationship with him will be secure in the future!

The complicated aspect is that... the older brothers' strength is a bit too outrageous.

It was so outrageous that the three of them felt they couldn't handle it.

It feels like I can't even get a whiff of my older brother's exhaust fumes.

Ugh……

*

Just as Leng Ruolan said.

They arrived at the camp that evening.

It was called a campsite, but it was really just a few tents and a campfire, that was it.

It's nothing compared to the farmhouses in Xiongguo!

As soon as Chen Hao saw Leng Ruolan and Ou Yun return, followed by three burly men, he noticed them.

"Sorry to bother you."

The three strong men bowed.

Take a look at the eldest brother's camp.

Ultra-high-end tents, ultra-luxury off-road vehicles.

Hmm, it really is simple yet elegant!

Chen Hao exclaimed a few times, "Oh dear, not at all. We still need to build the camp together. Thank you for your help."

*

The days that followed were simple.

The three bears received ample meat, and their injuries healed rapidly.

They quickly grabbed their tools and went to cut down trees and get to work.

Chen Hao provided technical guidance from the side and also fed the animals regularly.

"Everyone, if you're tired, have some water, eat some meat, and take a rest!"

It moved the three of them deeply.

Waaaaah, I've never eaten this well even at my own camp!

They actually came here to enjoy themselves, right...? Absolutely!

Brother Longguo is so kind, he's amazing!

But this water... it feels like something I can't afford to drink.

It's fine, at worst I'll just become a dog for the Dragon Kingdom, it's worth it!

Building a camp requires cutting down a lot of trees.

If Ouyun also wants a treehouse, then the more wood the better.

Of course, Leng Ruolan and Ou Yun weren't idle either.

Leng Ruolan carried the axe and chopped away, making sure to cut the diagonal edge first. It seems she wasn't incapable of chopping before, but simply lazy.

But Ou Yun is different; he's more straightforward and direct.

Just throw the meat onto the tree trunk—

"Go on, little calf!"

The ox would suddenly appear as if by divine intervention, crashing headfirst into the tree. Sometimes, if they were lucky, several trees would fall like dominoes.

The three people from the Bear Kingdom were immediately agitated when they saw how powerful the ox was.

Especially when you hear that this cow's skin is so tough that even bullets can't penetrate it—

"Is this a sacred cow? This must be a sacred cow?!"

"Absolutely a divine cow!"

"What kind of tough skin can't even be damaged by weapons?"

"I understand, this is Big Brother's mount!"

"By the way, I remember there are many deities riding oxen in Chinese mythology..."

Leng Ruolan, who happened to be passing by unintentionally: ...

Sigh, it's hopeless.

And just like that, another week passed.

45 days have passed since the Wilderness Forbidden Zone was opened.

Inside the forbidden area, the Dragon Kingdom's camp was already taking shape.

The people of Sanxiong are very serious about their work. They still use a simple version of concrete to build walls by hand and reinforce them with stones. However, they also added a layer of sharpened wood on the outside, which also raised the height of the walls.

With the walls around it, we finally feel a bit safer at the campsite!

Ou Yun was quite pleased; indeed, many hands make light work. If it were just the three of them working on this project, who knows how long it would have taken!

He couldn't help but recall the attack on the Bear Kingdom's camp by a pack of wolves.

"Will this keep out the wolves?"

Chen Hao said not necessarily, "It can block most wild animals. But it's mainly used to defend against people."

Ou Yun thought to himself, "That makes sense. Wild animals might just walk away if they can't break through, but on the human side, one in three people is a genius with a knack for creating problems. That's why it's true that wherever there are people, there will be war."

Leng Ruolan carried a piece of wood past and said, "Whether it's a person or a ghost, bury them all the same. We can compost it, and maybe even grow some flowers and plants to cultivate our minds."

Chen Hao, who was standing nearby, pondered for a moment, then slapped his forehead. "That's right! We can grow vegetables!"

"Um?"

"Seeds are easy to find; the pits of any fruit, or the roots and stems of plants, etc."

Ou Yun exclaimed, scratching the back of his head, "What? You want to switch to farming? That doesn't suit our style, does it?"

"I'll do the planting. Now that we have a camp and things are stable, when else would we plant if not now?"

Chen Hao said, "Anyway, I'm just trying to deepen my public image."

"Isn't your public persona that of a science and technology professional?"

"I recently switched to support. It's all the same anyway."

"ha."

Ou Yun thought to himself that it was a good idea. The Xiong Guo people were still here, so he could ask them for help!

Sure enough, here come the people of the Bear Kingdom:

Alexander came over carrying an axe.

"Brother, do we need anything to fill this area? Let's go pick up some dry grass first."

The wall construction has entered the final stage of checking for and fixing any defects.

Alexander found the gap irritating and decided to find something to patch it up.

Ou Yun went over to take a look and said, "The gap isn't very big. Should we fill it in?"

He thought all ancient fences were like this.

"That works too, but it would be better to add more."

Alexander had already called his teammates to prepare to collect more.

But the next second, Ou Yun brought over a bucket of pitch-black stuff from somewhere.

"Use this; we prepared it beforehand!"

Ivan curiously leaned over to take a look—

Good heavens! This isn't asphalt... no, it's oil!

"B-Big brother, what you've done..."

The three brothers were completely stunned.

Ou Yun smiled and said, "This stuff can be used as an adhesive, we've tried it before."

The story goes that they thought it wasn't good for the old cow to be exposed to the wind and sun, and since it refused to go into the tent, they decided to build a cowshed.

They used this oil to heat it up, and then used ropes to glue the wooden boards together.

The smell was unexpectedly strong, and the cows refused to stay any longer, so they had to give up.

"..."

Damn it.

Oil, right?

Oil has arrived.

Alexander sighed, thinking to himself, "I'm out of ideas."

This isn't just a thigh, it's an ultimate, invincible, whirlwind-spiraling, heaven-rising dragon kingdom's giant ham!

If I can get this hug, I'll never have to worry for the rest of my life!
