A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy

Chapter 4

4 – Survival (3)

Human beings are both strong and fragile. As with any animal, there is no creature more contradictory than humans.

Muscular strength is weak compared to other animals, but endurance is superior to any other animal.

Thanks to his endurance and his intelligence to use tools, he was able to rise to the top of the food chain.

But this is also a story when a ‘group’ is formed, and humans as individuals are weak.

First of all, there are few wild animals that can take victory with their bare hands. If a dog bites you, it’s just over.

This makes it really difficult to hunt alone, and it is difficult to demonstrate the advantage of low calorie consumption.

Shouldn’t you eat something to save calories or do something?

Quick!

“Woo-wook…!”

In that sense, I ate bugs. It’s a white bug found inside a rotten tree.

As soon as you chew with your teeth, an indescribable disgust fills your mouth. The smell of earth is fragrant.

Kududeuk- Kkudeuk- Woodeuk-

I held on as best I could and moved my jaw. It was vividly felt that the impression was crumpled.

Soul World boasts a high degree of freedom even though the fighting style is trash, and if you don’t have food, you can even eat bugs.

There are also bugs that contain poison, so be careful. This is also because I am a deceased person, so I know what poison is.

This information wouldn’t be useful if it hadn’t fallen into the forest. It’s like a dick in many ways.

Damn it! Enemy! Enemy!

It tastes nasty enough to cause vomiting. I forcibly put in what was coming up from inside, barely holding on.

Somehow, even the characters get nauseous when eaten raw. It was a useless reality test.

It would be better if you grilled it over a fire. However, the shape of the left arm is like this, so there is no choice.

I have no choice but to eat it raw, at least until my arm is fine. You can’t eat animal carcasses.

Of course, assuming the worst case, you have to eat it. I hope you don’t come to a situation where you suck the bone marrow like a caveman.

“Ughhhhh”

This time, a fishy smell filled my nose. Every time I breathe through my nose, I feel like I’m going to vomit.

The problem is that bugs alone are not enough. I need a few more to last until my arm heals.

As for how to know this, Bear Grylls told me about it himself. It’s fortunate that I usually watch documentaries often.

Ah, just in case, I can’t eat the fruit. After eating, most of them basically have diarrhea.

‘Even something good to eat grows on trees… Ehh.’

Fortunately, drinking water is nearby.

There was a small flowing stream, and the water was safe to drink when watching the killifish swimming there.

People die if they don’t eat food for 3 weeks, and if they don’t drink water for 3 days, they die.

What I absolutely needed was drinking water, but I was able to let go.

‘The problem is that all kinds of animals come to drink that water.’

Perhaps Porori will come too. I know that many deceased people have been looking for a stream to get rid of Porori.

Then I plan to run away without looking back. Because I am a person at the bottom of the food chain.

In a way, killing the hungry wolf was also luck. If there were no sticks and rocks nearby, it would die on the spot.

‘I have to endure until my arm heals.’

The 0th priority is the recovery of the arm. The range increases only when the arm is restored.

This is also not certain, the arm may rot from infection before that.

It would be nice if someone luckily came to visit me in the meantime, but thinking about it again, it’s not very pleasant.

This is a very deep location for Porori to live in. If you enter with your bare body, you will most likely be in distress.

In other words, the possibility of me getting out of this place is significantly less. You may have to choose ‘life’ rather than survival.

‘A. I should be able to get out before then.’

You just need to get used to it. Even Bear Grylls survives and does not escape or adapt.

The reason I ate insects now was to meet the minimum conditions for living. Did you hear that it is rich in protein?

This is the minimum requirement. Unless you’re hunting or fishing, it’s impossible to eat until you’re full.

‘If at least my arm was fine…’

It’s a pity that I’m going to try eating the hungry wolf I caught yesterday. I moved when the smell in my mouth was almost gone.

For now, we have no choice but to survive as bugs. It is estimated that it will take at least a month for the arm to fully heal.

‘Can I survive a month?’

A month is also an assumption when you find a plant that is good for recovery.

I was lucky enough to find a plant that stops bleeding, but I have to keep in mind that it might be the end.

My heart breaks with the premonition that even surviving, let alone escaping, will be difficult. As usual, this forest is a place to enter a high level.

I could only see a bleak future. I’d rather someone get this far.

Creepy-

“What…”

Then I suddenly felt a chill run down my back bone. I flinched and looked back.

Hush- Hiss-

An animal with a forked tongue and an elongated body. A reptile that is characterized by its flexibility and can easily climb trees.

A disgusting looking snake is looking straight at me. It seems that he caught me when he saw me sticking out his tongue.

Even small snakes are disgusting, but they are not small. Anyway, when did you approach me?

Char!

At that thought, the snake opened its mouth wide and rushed at me.

As if proving that it was a venomous snake, its two sharply protruding fangs flashed.

“Ashibal!!”

I was so surprised that I instinctively moved my upper body. The snake’s head narrowly passed the cheek area.

If you dodged the attack, it’s my turn. I grabbed the body of the snake before it got into position.

I had to hold it with my right hand because the shape of my left arm wasn’t a horse, but that was enough.

Shaak!

As soon as I grab his torso, he resumes his attack again. He charged with his mouth wide open toward his right arm, which was grasping his torso.

The chance of survival is 0% if you can’t even use your right arm. I quickly let go of my hand holding his torso.

A snake that falls to the ground as soon as it is released. Then he quickly ran away through the bushes.

“··· ···”

It happened so quickly that my mind was in a daze. If it hadn’t been a creepy feeling, if the reaction had been even a little late.

It’s not just big beasts to watch out for here. Poisonous snakes, bugs, and plants are the most dangerous.

And in the worst case, you have to eat those things. Just thinking about it made me frown at the feeling of throwing up my toe.

[Fast reaction speed! Agility increases!]

“f*ck…”

I cursed a little. It’s still like a dick, but it’s become more like a dick. Why the hell did you come down here?

I can’t even let you go to the city. Why is this forest full of all sorts of dangers?

If God is in front of me, I want to pour out all the swear words. For reference, there is a God in this worldview.

If you go back to the city, you will definitely be cursed at. I made a promise today.

[Your faith has declined.]

Go away. A kid who doesn’t help.

What will you do if your faith declines? You can do what you can do.

‘First of all, we have to get out of here. I will definitely go out.’

I moved my steps while being as vigilant as possible.

I didn’t even go there if I wanted to. I thought my life would be in danger if I went there.

Since I’ve acquired an ability that doesn’t sound like much, I plan to use it to the fullest.

‘Let’s hold on for just one month. I’ll escape when my arm heals.’

However, that promise never materialized.

“Kleurung! Keng! Keng!”

“f*ck!”

I used to put all my strength into survival.

“Wooooo!!”

“f*ck!”

Like a lie, I have perfectly adapted to this forest.

“f*ck.”

Lost language ability is a bonus.

******

You may think that the wild untouched by humans is itself the weak meat.

An environment where the weak disappear and only the strong can benefit.

But even this statement is wrong. It is true that the strong take the weak.

Then, what is the criterion for a strong man? Who is strong? Or are you a brainy person?

At least that’s the case in places where civilization is developed. If either one of them excels, they stand out.

However, conditions are different in the wild. Just as the environment itself is different, there is only one way to become strong in the wild.

To survive.

Kwajik!

“Greater…”

Kooung!

A black bear the size of a house collapsed and the ground trembled.

A stone ax is stuck right into the bear’s head. Like an ax for chopping firewood.

Jjoook-

As you retrieve the crude stone axe, you hear a sticky sound. The sensation was fully conveyed through his hands.

It’s not even unpleasant now. I’m just glad I got enough food to last for a few days.

It’s a bit cumbersome to dismantle the hide, but he’s a solid guy, so it doesn’t matter. What to put on the floor of the cave?

“Hmm. f*ck (good).”

I dragged the bear with one hand. It doesn’t matter if there are traces left.

Because he has recently been active as a predator in this area, the thicker the smell, the better for me.

Very few predators can’t approach it, and there’s no need to come here. You just have to find another place.

Shhh-

Then suddenly, I heard a sound in my ears. I ignored the sound and only dragged the bear.

If you’re just observing, there’s no need to touch it. We have already secured enough food.

Of course, few people in the wild judge rationally. Especially if you think of me as a threat.

Charah!

Now I’m tired of being used to it. I quietly raised my arm.

In the old days, I would have cowered in fear. But no more.

Tup!

I caught the head of the snake that was darting at me from the tree. I stopped for a moment and looked at the snake.

The snake is struggling with its head grabbed by me. The wide open fangs inside the mouth are menacing.

Crack!

Ah. I should have held the top a little higher. I grabbed it roughly, and its fangs were embedded in my skin.

However, snakes will not pierce my skin, and even if they pierce, there will be no poisoning.

Because I am poisoned so much, most poisons do not work. In the process, the skin also hardened.

Of course, this is not a good thing. The difference between poison and medicine is one piece of paper, and because of this, the herbs did not work well.

I thought the Martial Arts Immortality was good, but that wasn’t the case either. Maybe my body is weird.

Quack!

I got a snack though. I grabbed the snake’s head with my mouth, tore it off, and spat it on the ground.

Perhaps because of the characteristics of snakes, even if the head is torn off, the body struggles. Seriously, he’s a goofy guy no matter what.

Well- Well- Well-

But now it’s my snack.

I continued on my way chewing on the snake like jelly. Since they caught a bear, it is predation.

Actually, this bear is also pitiful.

But what can I do? It’s his fault for stepping on his wrong foot.

In the wild, the one who survives is the strongest.

This bear is nothing more than an underdog after all.
