You can evolve by surviving in the Ark

Feeling the anesthesia in his body gradually subside, the tamed marsupial lion stood up staggeringly in the darkness.

It shook its body and moved its muscles, and the brown fur all over its body rippled like the glimmer of the morning sun. Beside him, the lying partner also stood up, sticking out his tongue to lick the messy neck hair that had been weighed down by lying down for a long time. The two marsupial lions started rubbing their ears and temples together as if no one was watching.

At this moment, the sun had already risen, but it was blocked by layers of gray clouds and morning mist, as well as by the branches and leaves in the mangroves. The surroundings were still dim.

By this time, the two marsupial lions and the two saber-toothed tigers had all been tamed, and they returned home with the three of them.

Last night, there were no more dangerous attacks, but there was an episode.

Near dawn, they heard someone calling for help, but when they arrived in the dark, they only saw an unrecognizable corpse at the feet of a few terror birds.

This is not the first time this has happened.

During this period, it was not that they had not considered adding teammates. After all, there were only three people, and the problem of shortage of manpower became increasingly prominent.

……

After sleeping for a few hours to replenish her energy, Li Hongying rode the Pteranodon and flew to Crescent Bay.

Feeling the altitude rising, the mountains, rivers and jungles below shrank in the field of vision, making it unobstructed. This feeling made Li Hongying feel relaxed and happy no matter how many times. She will always remember the shock of riding a Pteranodon into the blue sky for the first time.

After flying over a large mountainous jungle, she deliberately avoided the swamps next to the mangroves because Tuotuo had mentioned to her that there were terrifying insects there that could lift giant rhinos into the sky. Qiao Liang said that they were Lenny's jaws. insect.

In short, in such a world, there are always all kinds of weird and dangerous creatures, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful.

Further ahead is a plain facing the sea.

Under the tremendous force, the earth let out an overwhelmed wail that resounded through the sky. Every step of the giant creature can cause earthquake-like tremors and leave abyss-like footprints. The sky was filled with billowing dust, and the lush green forest was destroyed by the unconscious swing of its long tail.

Li Hongying's pupils tightened, and she witnessed a sight that she would never forget - a walking mountain.

As if it were a Brontosaurus enlarged countless times, this giant dragon's body was covered with thick bony decks, like undulating peaks. It just walks aimlessly, which is a catastrophe to the landscape and ecology below. The towering long neck would bend down from time to time, and pieces of shrubs and leaves would be eaten into its mouth.

The very existence of this creature is a miracle of the world.

Li Hongying carefully walked around it, flew over the distant mountains and rivers, and finally arrived at the familiar scenery.

……

"what……"

Tuotuo let out a low cry, put the finger pricked by the needle tip into his mouth and sucked on it.

The fur armor was almost finished. After Li Hongying left, it was handed over to her and Qiao Liang.

The main source of fur for these armors is giant ground sloths, and a small amount comes from dire bears and giant beavers that also inhabit mangroves. In addition to the three necessary sets, I also managed to make up a third set that can be used as a backup. Four sets.

Although Li Hongying is a martial arts practitioner, her family is well-off and she has a mother who wants to marry her into an official family. She has learned the basics of nühong, and the workmanship of this fur armor is pretty good.

In comparison, Tuo Tuo's craftsmanship is a bit miserable. She had worked very hard, but the stitches were still a mess. If aesthetics were not considered, these stitches did indeed perform the job of suturing.

She glanced at Qiao Liang, who was doing better than her. As a single person who lives alone all year round and occasionally mends his own clothes, Qiao Liang still has some experience.

But if you're good at it...

"hiss--"

Qiao Liang also put his finger in his mouth and sucked it, which made Tuotuo chuckle.

Hearing the laughter, Qiao Liang turned around and was about to respond to Tuo Tuo's ridicule, but when the words came to his lips, his mind went blank.

A warm smile first overflowed from her beautiful eyebrows, and then raised the corners of her mouth, causing shallow dimples on her reddish cheeks. The blue eyes narrowed into crescent moons, twinkling like stars. The girl's bright smile was like a soft song in the wind, stirring up Qiao Liang's heartbeat.

Tuotuo was expressionless on weekdays, but after spending so much time together, Qiao Liang had gotten used to her appearance. Just this smile is like the precious ingredients that are usually packed at the bottom of the box. After being carefully cooked and sprinkled with spices, they bloom with a heart-stirring appeal.

The two of them were not sitting close to each other, but not far away either. After calming down, you can still faintly smell the sweet smell.

His throat rolled and he lightly licked his dry lips.

In fact, he had always had an idea, but no one was a fool. The two of them were obviously unwilling, and he didn't know how to operate it.

Tuotuo also saw Qiao Liang's reaction, but he did not restrain himself. He just turned his face slightly to cover up the uncontrollable redness on his face, and spoke about a topic that had nothing to do with the atmosphere.

"Qiao Liang, tell me why...the mangrove tribe is like that."

She looked up at the sky and continued.

"Actually, Di Lunbu's tribe was not very good before, but in comparison, it was pretty good. I heard from Sister Hongying that her junior brother Lu Qian used to be a very righteous person. Children, my dream since childhood is to become a hero and do justice..."

"Why did it become like that? Is it because there are too many people? If that's the case, then I would rather... we just stay like this, three of us."

Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment, not expecting Tuotuo to mention this. He pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.

"Because if people want to live, they need the support of faith."

"We often think that by relying on our ability, we can finally gain the value of existence. But if the reality is too cruel, we realize our own powerlessness, cannot find the basis of value, cannot provide enough motivation to persist in our beliefs, and eventually collapse."

"The belief that a person originally has is abstract and noble. We can call it a concept. But the concept itself does not exist. In this world, only self-interest is the indestructible belief. When this concept is not From a self-interested perspective, it can be easily destroyed."

"Just like Lu Qian, maybe he did have noble moral ideals and aspirations, but he collapsed in this cruel world and gave up his persistence in the hopelessness."

"And once you firmly believe in pure self-interest, the original darkness and the evil deep in human nature will be released. In the process, he experienced the happiness derived from animal nature. At this time, the humanity in his soul, Morals and values ​​no longer exist.”

"And in the end, only destruction can end this evil."

Qiao Liang thought for a while. For a long time, he had maintained his modern values ​​without much change, precisely because he still had faith.

The three thousand hours of Ark Survival Evolved game experience are the basis for his survival in this world to this day, and also the source of his indestructible belief.

And if things in the future deviate completely from his understanding and this experience is no longer used, then what will happen to him...

He shook his head, not thinking about this possibility, and continued: "It is not surprising that the mangrove tribe completely gave up on morality without knowing that they could ascend and leave; the tribe of Tillunbu still harbored the desire to return to civilization. hope, so act while retaining at least a basic moral bottom line.”

"I don't know what the new teammates will be like in the future. But as long as we have hope, our faith will not collapse. Don't worry, our tribe will not become like that!"

"Just keep trusting me!"
