Chapter 549: An Island
After the sun came out, although the temperature was still low, it was much better than yesterday.
We discussed it all night and finally came up with a solution that was not a solution.
Because the instrument still fails, we can only distinguish the direction of other things, such as the direction of the sun.
We moved towards the sunrise. Although we were a little deviant, after swimming for more than half a day, an island actually appeared in front of us.
This may be that good luck comes one after another.
The island ahead of us is quite huge, with a long strip of shape as a whole. From a distance, I can't see it.
We were so excited that we forgot about our fatigue and swam quickly to the island.
The island is covered with green grass, which looks full of vitality.
It is probably summer in the Arctic Ocean. The beautiful grassland gives people the illusion of lively and warmth, and the distance to the grassland is a coniferous forest.
In my impression, the coniferous forests are cold and solemn, but at this moment, when I see this forest, I feel the warmth of spring.
The climate of the island seems to be warmer, and there may be warm currents or monsoons nearby.
At this moment, the grassland in front of us is even more lively. There are many penguins and seals on the grass, all of which are cute, as if we are coming to a zoo.
Moreover, seeing those fat seals, my heart couldn't help but feel the time when I was eating seals with Xiao Qing and the others on the mysterious island.
It's really nostalgic.
At that time, we were still worried about some food and were worried about whether we would starve to death tomorrow.
Speaking of which, I have been away from Jiangyuan City for many days, and I don’t know if Xiao Qing and the others are doing well these days. With her strong business ability, the jewelry we brought back from the island may have been sold at a sky-high price.
I couldn't help but feel a little confused when I turned my head and thought of these things, but soon I suppressed my inner longing.
Although we arrived on a piece of land, this is good news and means we are temporarily out of danger.
But who knows if there are any other dangers on this island?
After checking the surroundings carefully, they confirmed that there were no poisons or ferocious animals, they then lay happily on the beach and rested happily.
Feeling the fishy smell of the soil around us, we all have a different sense of peace of mind.
This feeling is beyond the people who soak in water for a long time.
After a while of rest, we were all hungry, and everyone couldn't help but stare at the seals in the distance.
Catching seals is indeed illegal in many places, but now we have to replenish calories if we want to survive.
Not long after, we set up a barbecue grill.
Everyone sat around the bonfire and enjoyed this moment of peace and joy.
While eating, everyone started discussing the next course of action.
"We must find a way to figure out where this is, and our communication equipment still has no signal."
"We can go to the mountain to take a look later. Maybe we can find the signal. If there is still no signal, we have to build a ship ourselves."
“Those coniferous trees can be used as materials for our shipbuilding…”
Although we only have five people, they are all very skilled, and it is not difficult to build a ship.
After discussing for a while, everyone decided to use this island as a base to search in the nearby waters, determine their location, and find places with good signals.
If we have contacted the outside world, it would be easier for us to leave.
What we didn't expect was that everyone was having a meal, but suddenly felt something was wrong. At almost the same time, everyone's bodies rushed to the ground.
And we just fell to the ground and dozens of arrows flew over our heads.
We quickly turned our heads and saw that among the low bushes in the distance, there were some savages wearing animal skin clothes and bows and arrows in their hands, attacking us.
These guys used the low bushes as a cover-up, and only poked their heads out when they were shooting arrows.
However, although they hid very well, we had strong combat experience. Just from the number of arrows, we can tell that they had about a dozen people, four to five times the number of us.
"There are savages on this island?"
We were all a little surprised. We were located near the Arctic. There seemed to be no savages in the islands near the Arctic!
As far as I know, only the Inuits are known people living in the Arctic. However, the areas where the Inuits live are only near the United States, near the Bering Strait, and near the United Kingdom.
There should be no such thing as this area where we are.
In addition, the costumes and outfits of the savages in front of us are also very different from those of the Inuits.
Is there a group of savages near the Arctic that have been discovered by the world?
This made me think of the Honglu people on the mysterious island.
Are these people also a nation like the Honglu people who are forgotten by history?
I was curious, but I made up my mind to catch a savage and torture it carefully later.
Although the number of these savages is much higher than that of us, we are sure to win.
We won’t mention our skills, the key is that our weapons are too advanced.
The guns were made of two, and the savages only had some tattered bows and arrows.
We quickly hid behind nearby stones and fought back with guns.
These savages have been hunting since childhood, and their bows and arrows have been shot very accurately, but unfortunately, our guns still crushed them from the firepower and accuracy of their heads.
After a while, these savages were beaten so hard that they couldn't raise their heads.
They were more than a dozen or twenty people, and they were killed or injured soon.
Since these people came to attack us, we would definitely not show mercy.
The savages didn't expect that we were so powerful. They were frightened and finally couldn't stand it and began to flee wildly.
We followed closely and wanted to catch a living.
I had the fastest sprint, but as I walked, I had to carefully observe the surroundings and under my feet. These savages were very treacherous and left many traps in the woods.
The remaining savages were also leading us towards the traps while escaping our lives.
I have to say that even savages with very low levels of civilization cannot be underestimated, they are very cunning.
If it were some wolves, tigers and other animals, they might be hit, and most people might be unlucky here.
But I had a strong observation and fast reaction speed, so I quickly discovered their trap. While reminding my companions behind me, I continued to chase and kill.
Chapter completed!
