Kaede Sato and Thomas walked and stopped in the forest. Along the way, they encountered one powerful wild sprite after another. Then, they fought or chose to escape. In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed.
Before sunset, the two of them successfully escaped from the forest and returned to a temporary camp they had set up at the edge of the central area of the mysterious island.
After today, they only needed to spend two more days on the island, and the two of them could successfully complete this stage of the competition and enter the final stage of the competition.
In fact, after 19 days of survival on the mysterious island, there were only 63 contestants left out of the 1,000 plus contestants who entered the mysterious island at the same time (500 plus contestants were eliminated in the long-distance flight test before entering the island).
This was the accurate information that Kaede Sato obtained from a greedy natural bird using ten packs of Advanced Sprite food.
One-third of the contestants were actually eliminated on the first day due to various unlucky reasons. Not every contestant had the ability to escape from a nest of poisonous spiders like Kaede Sato did, especially when they only had one Sprite at the time.
Therefore, the first day of the competition was also the day with the highest mortality rate. At least half of the eliminated contestants did not have time to take out special equipment to rescue them before they were torn to pieces by the wild sprites. Basically, everything they had on them ended up the same way.
Then came the next week. This was the time for the contestants to adapt to life on the mysterious island. This was also the time when the contestants were at their weakest on the island.
During this time, due to the trainers encountering wild sprites that they could not defeat, or the sprites themselves being injured or sick, lack of medical supplies, and other serious life-threatening problems, the number of contestants on the island was quickly reduced by a third.
In just one week, the number of contestants had decreased by two-thirds, leaving only about 300 contestants.
Then, in the second week, these contestants who had adapted to life on the island began to enter the golden period of rapid improvement in their strength. They also began to quickly realize that the mysterious island was a good place to improve their strength.
Of course, they also realized that if they wanted to improve their strength, they would have to obtain more resources. Otherwise, they would die before they could improve their strength. The shortage of resources became more and more serious. (Mainly due to the lack of medical supplies.)
These contestants who had benefited from the mysterious island began to take the initiative to look for other contestants. They wanted to snatch precious number tags from other contestants in exchange for resources to further improve their strength, and also to solve some personal problems.
In this process that was similar to raising venomous insects, the number of contestants began to decrease further. Until now, there were only 63 contestants left. There was no doubt that even if some of them were just lucky or had great strength, the fact that they could persist until now was enough to prove that these people's strength was extraordinary.
"Master Sato, are we going to continue to the Dead Forest tomorrow or another place to go?"
In the campsite with a bonfire, Thomas brought a roasted chicken to Kaede Sato, and then asked Kaede Sato with an attentive look.
After two weeks of training and getting along with each other, Thomas has become a more professional barbecue master. At the same time, he has also developed a good habit of leaving the operation to Kaede Sato. Every night, he would ask Kaede Sato about tomorrow's operation on time.
"Let's go to Diamond Canyon. The elves have been fighting in the Dead Forest for several days. It's time for them to relax a little. Let's go there tomorrow and see if we can meet an elf that we like."
Kaede Sato tore off a drumstick from the roasted chicken and took a few bites. After making up his mind, he said to Thomas in front of him.
Perhaps it was because he had a Boscodora Mega Fossil in his hand, Kaede Sato could not help but have the idea of taming a Codora. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, he has not been able to meet a Codora that he likes so far.
In fact, since the strength of the Giant Swamp Monsters has been greatly improved, Kaede Sato is not afraid of being besieged by the large Codora Tribe in Diamond Canyon as long as the leader of the Codora Tribe does not come out.
Unfortunately, Kaede Sato has not been able to go deep into the hinterland of the Codora Tribe until now. Whenever he gets a little closer, the King Tier Boscodora Leader will appear with a large group of high-level Boscodoras.
It is precisely because of this that Kaede Sato can basically only look for the Codora he likes in the periphery of the Codora Tribe's territory. However, how good can the aptitude of those Codoras who can only survive in the periphery of the territory be?
Kaede Sato knew very well that if he wants to find a Codora he likes, he can only enter the hinterland of the Codora Tribe to look for it. There must be many newborns that the Codora Tribe focuses on cultivating there.
For this reason, Kaede Sato has tried many times to lure the King Tier Boscodora out and then wait for an opportunity to enter the hinterland. However, the King Tier Boscodora seems to know his purpose. Unless Kaede Sato gets close to the hinterland, the King Tier Boscodora will never appear, which gives him a headache.
When he heard that they are going to Diamond Canyon, Thomas' face suddenly turned ugly. However, he did not dare to disobey Kaede Sato's words, so he nodded and continued to be a professional barbecue master.
Kaede Sato noticed Thomas' face, but he just smiled playfully and did not choose to change his mind. He knew what Thomas was afraid of because every time they went to Diamond Canyon, there was a high probability that they would encounter Butterfly who was digging for gems.
Then, a battle would inevitably break out, and Thomas was almost killed by Butterfly's Little Elf several times.
However, Kaede Sato was no longer afraid of Butterfly. The reason was that his strength was enough to compete with Butterfly, and he did not have to worry about being chased away by her again.
Kaede Sato completely believed that Butterfly was a big money grubber. Ever since she and the Staff-Tailed Scaled Dragon occupied several gem mines in Diamond Canyon, she and the Scaled Dragon had been mining there day and night, frantically collecting all kinds of high-quality gems.
Because of this, the strength of the Little Elf in Butterfly's hands was very limited in the past two weeks. Kaede Sato, who had been crazily improving his strength in the past two weeks, had gradually caught up with Butterfly. Although the gap between the two was still there, it was not as big as it was at the beginning of the battle.
However, it was undeniable that Butterfly's strength was still the best among the remaining contestants. She was one of the four contestants that Kaede Sato could not defeat so far on the mysterious island.
Yes, in the later stages, more and more contestants began to gather in the central area of the mysterious island. Kaede Sato and Thomas had encountered more than 20 contestants in the past few days in the Dead Forest.
Kaede Sato defeated three of them with difficulty. Most of the remaining contestants were not as strong as him, but they had the ability to escape from him. However, there were three of them that Kaede Sato could only choose to avoid.
These three people were Sakaki Tomishiki, Els, and Qiu Fenglin.
Needless to say, Sakaki Tomishiki was the nephew of Sakaki's boss. With the Fiery-Bite Land Shark in his hand, he was extremely powerful. He could be said to be the strongest among all the contestants. Not only that, but he also had five other powerful contestants with him. It could be said that he was the strongest contestant on the mysterious island.
It seemed that Sakaki Tomishiki knew Kaede Sato's identity. That was why he did not choose to make things difficult for Kaede Sato when he met up with the five contestants. Kaede Sato avoided the danger of being eliminated.
However, it was undeniable that this was the biggest setback that Kaede Sato had ever encountered since he entered the island. Strictly speaking, he had been eliminated by Sakaki Tomishiki, and it made him feel very uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Els was a powerful psychic. Yes, he was Kaede Sato's long-time ally, Mia's target for revenge.
However, judging from the fact that there was still no news of Mia, his ally, while Els still looked fine, Sato Kaede guessed that Mia's missing ally had either met with misfortune or had been eliminated from the competition.
The psychic that Kaede Sato had fought not long ago was Els. His opponent's Hu Di and Ailuido were both Level 59 like the Swamp Monster. However, because Hu Di and Ailuido had mastered the skill of teleportation, the two little elves were able to temporarily suppress the Swamp Monster and Meihua who had the ability to move freely.
In the end, if it was not for the Crosshead's unexpected provocation skill that caused Hu Di to be severely injured by the Swamp Monster and Els to choose to retreat out of concern for Hu Di's situation, Kaede Sato and Thomas might have really been defeated by their opponent's unpredictable psychic ability.
As for the last one, Cold Autumn Gale, she was an iron-blooded woman who was a direct descendant of Apollo's faction. She had a Dragon-type Mythical Beast, Berserk Wyvern in her hand. In terms of strength, Kaede Sato felt that she might be slightly weaker than Sakaki Tomissei.
When Kaede Sato met her, he and Thomas' group of little elves were almost instantly wiped out by her Level 65 Berserk Wyvern's Dragon Star Swarm. Moreover, she was ruthless and had no scruples. She unscrupulously chose to order the little elves to attack the trainer.
If it was not for Kaede Sato's good luck that two Heavenly King-tier wild little elves came out to mess things up, Kaede Sato and Thomas might have really died in that battle.
For that reason, Kaede Sato had also formed a grudge with Cold Autumn Gale. She was the person that Kaede Sato wanted to kill the most at the moment.
.....
Time passed quietly. The more joyful dinner time was quickly over. However, as the happy time was coming to an end, an uninvited guest that had not been seen for a long time quietly arrived.
"It's you!"
Kaede Sato looked at the person who suddenly appeared behind the bonfire in front of him. He immediately stood up from the ground and said with a surprised expression.
