"Actually, I think Zhou Ye only needs to lay the leaves as a waterproof layer. Using charcoal and fine sand is completely unnecessary. After all, charcoal and fine sand could not store water at all.
Moreover, even the leaves were not completely waterproof. After all, there were gaps in the middle of the leaves. The rainwater would still slowly seep into the ground.”
Professor Chen didn't think well of Zhou Ye's method. He shook his head and sighed.
If Zhou Ye knew what they were thinking, he would definitely look down on them.
Although charcoal and fine sand could not prevent infiltration, they could filter the water source. Zhou Ye wasn't a fool. He wanted to use this method to make it waterproof. This was just an emergency product.
Zhou Ye was preparing to make lunch while he was roasting the fire. He was hungry after a busy morning.
He took out the clams that he had harvested yesterday and placed them on the stone slab to roast. There were dozens of clams and a grilled fish. This was Zhou Ye's lunch.
After enjoying the delicious lunch, Zhou Ye took a nap and woke up in high spirits. He looked outside.
Although the rain hadn't stopped, it was much lighter.
The water storage pit was already full, and the excess water had already flowed out. This time, Zhou Ye didn't want to go out in the rain again. Even if he had a straw raincoat, the chance of catching a cold was still very high.
The rain didn't stop. Zhou Ye prepared to make a self-defense weapon for himself. Zhou Ye didn't even dare to explore the depths of the island after losing all his tools. He didn't even have a self-defense weapon.
This time, he had to make a weapon that could be used for self-defense. Otherwise, he would not feel safe at all.
He took out the coconut palm he had stored and weaved it into a slender rope. He picked out a straight long wooden stick from the leftover wood from the wooden house.
The entire wooden stick was about two meters long and as thick as an arm. He tested the feel of the stick. If he removed the bark, it should feel good.
He did as he thought. He used the flint spearhead to peel off the bark of the wooden stick and tested it. It was not bad.
Then, he used the flint spearhead to break one end of the wooden stick from the middle. Then, he clamped the flint spearhead in the middle of the wooden stick and tied the spearhead and the wooden stick tightly together with a rope.
The stone spear was completed.
Zhou Ye tried it and felt that it was quite handy. He pulled the spearhead out forcefully. The spearhead that was tied to the wooden stick only moved. The spearhead was tied tightly. Zhou Ye was very satisfied.
With the stone spear, Zhou Ye's sense of security instantly increased.
Now that he had this stone spear, Zhou Ye was confident that he could explore the depths of the island and find more resources.
"F * ck! What is the host doing? Could it be a walking stick? This is too unconventional."
"Previous poster, are you stupid? Is a walking stick that long?”
"It seems like this rod is a weapon, right? After all, that stone was quite sharp, just like the stone axe from before.”
"I think it's also a weapon for self-defense. After all, that stick is so long and there's a sharp stone. It should have a certain defensive effect.”
The viewers in the live broadcast room immediately started arguing. After all, they had never seen such a thing before.
In the movies they usually watched, the weapons that appeared were mechas, beam sabers, and various electromagnetic cannons.
They had never seen a stone spear like the one in Zhou Ye's hand.
The host, Qian Hao, was also confused. He asked Professor Chen,
"Professor Chen, is that really a weapon? Have you ever seen such a weapon? He felt that a wooden stick and a stone like this did not have much power!”
Professor Chen shook his head. He didn't know what Zhou Ye was doing either. He could only guess,
"I'm not sure about its exact power, but it should be a self-defense weapon. Since it's as long as the rolling stick, it should have some self-defense effect.”
"Professor Chen is right. Moreover, there is a stone tied to the wooden stick, which increases the weight of the head of the wooden stick.
From a kinetic point of view, using the lever principle, coupled with the acceleration of the swing, if one was hit by this kind of stick, the damage effect would be quite large.”
The humans in this world, as long as they had the conditions, would undergo genetic modification. Their individual strength was very strong. Coupled with the advancement of technology, they had long abandoned cold weapons.
The scenes in movies and television dramas where they wore mechas and wielded beam sabers were already the only combat scenes they could imagine.
He had no idea how to use cold weapons. If Zhou Ye knew about their conversation, he would definitely shout,
"My stone spear is used to stab people, not to smash people. Only an idiot would give up the sharp spearhead and use a wooden stick instead!”
When Zhou Ye was waving the stone spear and feeling comfortable, the system notification sounded again.
"Ding dong! Congratulations to the host for obtaining your first self-defense weapon. Your survival rate has greatly increased. Special rewards are now being issued.”
"Ding dong! The reward has been issued! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill, Critical Strike! Experience points x100!"
" Critical Strike: A powerful attack infused with all your energy. There is a 50% chance of a critical hit and double the Armor Penetration effect.”
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the sky finally cleared up. The long-awaited sun shone on the ground, and the temperature that had dropped due to the rain began to slowly rise.
Zhou Ye breathed in the fresh air that smelled like dirt and stretched his body.
Zhou Ye took the stone spear and axe and walked deeper into the forest.
He wanted to enter the forest to collect some supplies before the sky turned dark.
As the heavy rain stopped, many participants walked out of their tents.
Many people wanted to take off their wet clothes before the sun set and expose them to the sun.
If he wasn't afraid of his wet clothes drying now, he would feel uncomfortable at night. Although the temperature at night wasn't low, it was still very cold after the rain.
Scarlet and Alice wore protective clothing and hung their wet clothes to dry.
"The rain has finally stopped. Boohoo…Sister, we survived.”
Alice hugged Scarlet, crying and laughing. Joy filled the surroundings.
"Yeah, I finally got over it."
Scarlet let out a similar sigh. She had originally thought that the two of them would not be able to withstand it and would give up on the competition. Fortunately, the two of them had relied on each other's encouragement to withstand it.
In this sudden downpour, hundreds of people chose to withdraw. This made countless viewers realize the cruelty of nature.
In the live broadcast hall, the host, Qian Hao, said emotionally.
"The heavy rain this time caused many people to withdraw from the competition. Nature is really unpredictable. He did not expect the sudden change in the weather to be so powerful.”
Everyone nodded in agreement. Xu Wei said with a sad tone,
"Originally, I didn't know anything about the weather. I only felt that the rainy weather was quite good.
Today, after seeing these contestants struggle to survive in the heavy rain, I feel that my life now is really too beautiful.”
"Yes, we really have to thank our ancestors for giving us the beautiful life we have now. However, human life was too comfortable now. They had lost their courage and forgotten the hardships of their ancestors.”
Professor Chen had a deeper feeling. He was a university professor and had seen too many people who only wanted to enjoy a comfortable life.
Some outstanding students originally had a bright future, but for the sake of a comfortable life, they didn't even have the motivation to work hard.
