In recent days, Ethan Brooks and Luna Marie have been preparing for the upcoming high tide.
A tide strong enough to submerge the reefs comes every 15 days, and it has been 12 days since the last one.
It's important to understand that they don't have a stable food source right now. The fish dried from the last high tide lasted only seven days, so this time they must catch more and try to keep the fish alive as long as possible, as the satisfaction from eating dried fish and fresh fish is not the same.
Moreover, Ethan Brooks has had a strange idea.
Maybe he could find a fish and feed it some white fruit to see if it could do something for him in the sea.
Although Ethan Brooks has not yet chosen the right fish, this plan has already been scheduled.
"Ah!"
On another cool morning, Ethan Brooks stretched and yawned, shielding his eyes from the glaring sun as he looked over the beach.
Luna was always up so early, doing stretching exer
The python's flesh was a blur in its abdomen, where a leg hung limply, and it seemed to be a lion's leg. Judging by its size, it should not be from an adult lion but from a cub. Ethan Brooks, fearing that he had not seen clearly, took a closer look and confirmed without a doubt that it was indeed a lion cub's leg. The python's belly was bulging, hidden deep within the coils of its own body, a defensive posture. Upon seeing this, Ethan Brooks was completely shocked. It's important to note that aside from its belly, the python had not sustained injuries anywhere else, while the lion was covered in wounds. Under normal circumstances, a lion wouldn't be so easily defeated, especially when it was driven to madness. The reason was that the lion wasn't trying to kill the python. Even if it was lashed to a bloody pulp, even if the python had broken its hind legs, even if it knew it was certainly going to die! Its goal was always just one! To tear open the python's belly. Realizing th
Upon hearing the words of Ethan Brooks, Luna Marie turned her head away and closed her eyes, a single tear of anguish trickling down from the corner of her eye.She quickly wiped it away, sniffled, and helped pry open the python's grip on Ethan Brooks.To escape the python's jaws, Ethan Brooks had to push his shoulder further into the mouth of the serpent to free himself from the reverse-serrated fangs, a process that nearly sent him into shock from the intense pain."Ah! Ahhh!"With a thud, Ethan Brooks broke free, his legs numb as he collapsed to the ground, his shoulders riddled with dozens of bloody punctures from which blood oozed slowly.Luna deftly used strips of cloth to bind Ethan Brooks' wounds.In a moment, Ethan Brooks regained his strength, picked up a bamboo spear from the ground, and advanced towards the lioness.The python lay sliced open, its belly revealing the slick body of a lion cub that the lioness had dragged out, now lying quietly on the ground.The lioness, we
A comprehensive upgrade is necessary, and it must be planned out.They can't just survive on dew and rainwater, nor can they subsist solely on fish, coconuts, salt, and various vitamins.All kinds of protective gear, weapons, and shelters also need to be upgraded.A simple life cannot be sustained for too long; he doesn't expect a rescue team to arrive tomorrow, so he must survive the day after tomorrow, and the days following.Of course, before all this, Ethan Brooks has another plan in mind: the ocean floor.To be precise, the garbage on the ocean floor.Marine debris, with only a part floating on the surface, accounts for just a fraction. 70% of ocean garbage settles on the seabed, most of which drifts with the currents.In the Pacific Ocean, marine debris covers more than 3.5 million square kilometers, exceeding the land area of India. At least 800,000 tons of garbage enter the ocean every year.Of course, what is considere
Ethan Brooks was feeling so disappointed that he now felt like he was about to vomit blood.That was half of the fruit he had saved from Spartans and Black Widows Spider!Standing still, with the cold seawater slapping his face, Ethan Brooks remained desolate for a long time, only to dejectedly walk back.With this half of the fruit gone, to find more fish for experiments, he would have to wait another two days. This experiment was a complete failure.Back at the camp, Luna was feeding the lioness.Now Ethan Brooks did not dare to get close to the lion, because he had no mental connection with it at all and feared it might bite him.But Luna, perhaps due to frequent contact over the past few days, had let down her guard. She not only fed the lioness-dried fish directly with her hand but even dared to reach out and touch the lioness's back.Ethan Brooks looked at the empty ropes hanging on the cabin and felt a surge of anger."A
The fine, soft, golden sand was stinging the wounds on the feet with every foot. The bright, warm sun felt like it had lit up the back. Ethan Brooks rushes ludicrously to the shade of the tree, forces the nausea and dizziness to fall to the ground, breaks up his foot, and looked at it, the epidermis has been blistered white and wrinkled, rubbed off three chunks of flesh, although no blood flows out, but it still hurts like a son of a bitch. "Puhahahahahahaha." Ethan Brooks bursts out laughing, not in self-deprecation, but in heartfelt gratitude to God. He should have died himself! At the time of the plane crash, the seat he was in was part of the fuselage that exploded first, but he happened to leave his seat at that time to try to go to the bathroom, and if not, he would have been killed directly on the plane. He had fainted when the wreckage of the airplane fell into the sea, and it was a blessing from God and Buddha that he was able to wake up on the beach. Ethan Brooks saw the
Ethan Brooks was so scared that his heart skipped a beat and he couldn't breathe. A moment later, however, the woman waved her hand at Ethan Brooks, gathering her rain-drenched hair away from her face and revealing a face of stunning beauty by the faint light of thunder and lightning in the sky. She was wearing a red dress, which was soaked through by the rain, and her delicate proportions were visible, but even if she was in such a sorry state, she still attracted attention, and the words "temperament and looks" were enough to summarize it. Soft and beautiful. But even though he could see it clearly through the flash, the silhouette was still nifty and a bit oozy in the dark. "Holy fuck! Who are you?" At this point, Ethan Brooks doesn't notice about beauty, he's screaming over his little heart. The woman, her face anxious, waved her hand at Ethan Brooks repeatedly and pointed to the sky, then held her hand above her head. “Hello?"Ethan Brooks understood that she probably meant
“Crap! Crap!!! I have heard that ants are disciplined, but should they be so exaggerated? Arranged in such a square, this can only be the ants that came out of the military camp!” Ethan Brooks suddenly panicked. This is not normal, just now they give people to put that kind of harsh words, and dozens of ants together are to go back to the code people do not, code ants to go, is it that they understand their speech? Or come back to snatch back the coconut? Are the ants on this island so bossy? "What do you want?" Ethan Brooks asked in a super-whispered whisper, because that time earlier was a joke, and if the mute girl saw her talking to ants again, she might be considered a fool. On closer inspection, right in front of the ant formation, there is another ant, this guy is a little bit bigger, about 1.3 or 1.4 centimeters, only to see its antennae quickly twitching, and the whole ant formation suddenly scattered, looks like a plate of sand, but soon let Ethan Brooks stupefied. The
The dusk was fast approaching. On the red campfire, the stewed seafood soup was steaming, filled with clams, conch, and a fat crab. "Ready!" Ethan Brooks stirred the soup, then speared the eye-pierced keg with a tree branch. Naturally, the soup was not to be wasted, and Luna secured a couple of coconut bowls to the sand as Ethan Brooks poured it all into the bowls and finally poured the seafood onto a braided coconut leaf. Looking at the seafood in front of them, Ethan Brooks and Luna looked at each other with some excitement. They had been starving since yesterday, except for the coconut milk and a bit of coconut meat. "Let's start!" Ethan Brooks was the first to pick up a conch and pick it out with a twig. The first bite was yummy! More than coconut, at least this is real meat, soft and sticky with a light salty flavor as soon as it hits the mouth! The second bite was fishy! Naturally, the conch isn't all meat, and when there were bites, the fishy flavor mixed with the sand in

Ethan Brooks was at a loss and could only look to Sparta for help, given that it was he who had brought the spider. Sparta sent a wave of encouragement to Ethan Brooks to continue, and since there was still more than half of the fruit left, it seemed the ants had stopped, intending to feed it all to the spider. Ethan Brooks did not hesitate, using a bamboo stick to pick up the remaining fruit and feed it to the black widow, bite by bite. With every bite, Ethan Brooks could feel the mental connection with the black widow becoming tighter. Soon, it would be strong enough to communicate as he did with Sparta. This, however, made Ethan Brooks feel quite distressed. Sparta and the other ants had shared one fruit among more than two hundred of them, consuming a total of seven fruits over the days. How much had each ant eaten? Yet this black widow had eaten more than half of a fruit by itself, which could have been enough to a
Time is just like that; when you are full of energy and hope, feeling like there's not enough time, it always seems to fly by, but when you are downhearted and struggling through the days, time seems to crawl.The five days were spent productively, and Ethan Brooks underestimated his capabilities.With the help of the ants and Luna, the wooden house was completed in just five days.The sturdy, spacious, and comfortable wooden house, nestled among several coconut trees, seemed exceptionally cozy amid the rainforest.Ethan Brooks felt an immense sense of achievement.Of course, Luna's contribution was indispensable.She crafted all the walls, the roof, and even the wicker bed after the cabin was completed. Ethan Brooks noticed that when her pace slowed down, she had at least four or five blisters on her hands.In addition, she calculated the calories, prepared meals for Ethan Brooks, and occasionally brewed a hot cup of tea with pine ne
In the tropical climate, it seems that only in the early morning can one enjoy such refreshingly clear and permeable air.Taking a deep breath revitalizes the spirit, Ethan Brooks got up and stretched lazily.The campfire seemed to have just been replenished with wood. Outside the shelter, a horizontal stick was hung with strips of grilled fish, swinging back and forth with the sea breeze.Luna Marie, however, was nowhere to be found.A sudden pang of worry struck Ethan Brooks—it was clear that Luna had gone to collect water from the forest. Ethan Brooks quickly got up and ran out of the shelter, heading towards the jungle and calling out as he ran. "Luna, Luna."Sparta and a group of ants, who were busy transporting leaves to water a white tree, saw Ethan Brooks running into the jungle and hurriedly dropped their leaves, quickly assembling to follow him.Ethan Brooks was soon surrounded by an ant information field, which gave him the
What's going on? Ethan Brooks rolled over and looked in the direction from which the warning of danger sent by Sparta had come. It was on the edge where the coconut grove met the jungle. "What's wrong?" Seeing his tense appearance, Luna Marie's heart sank, and the first danger that came to mind was that of a wild boar. Ethan Brooks pulled out a burning pine branch from the fire, gestured for Luna Marie to stay put, and tiptoed towards that direction. The ants' agitated waves grew more intense, as if they were battling something, and waves of pain transmitted through, Ethan Brooks could even feel the ants' screams of agony. He couldn't help but quicken his pace. Upon getting closer, Ethan Brooks bravely waved the pine branch over, and the firelight revealed a chilling sight. Beneath this tree, an ant nest the size of a soccer ball was teeming with ants pouring out, but these ants were clearly not of the same kind as Spar
