Extreme Night Wilderness Survival: Newbie Benefit, Giant Centipede

The [Game Map] has mountains, rivers, and lakes, especially many small rivers, but Wang Yu had no time to pay attention to them.

Wang Yu checked the 'Newbie Benefit' markers. There were many 'Newbie Benefit' markers densely packed on the [Game Map].

He could see these 'Newbie Benefit' markers, and other players could also see them. This meant that everyone could see these newbie benefits, so it was first come, first served, wasn't it?

Thinking of this, Wang Yu immediately checked the 'Newbie Benefit' marker closest to him.

This marker was 5.3 kilometers away from him in a straight line.

On the wilderness in the dark, 5.3 kilometers in a straight line was a bit far.

Wang Yu got up and prepared to set off.

At the same time, he did not ignore an important hint.

[Hint Two: Congratulations to all players for surviving seven days. The seven-day newbie benefits are officially being distributed. Related benefits can be found on the 'Game Map'. Please claim them with caution.]

What the heck was "Please claim them with caution"?

It was obvious that there was danger in claiming the 'Newbie Benefit'.

However, Wang Yu could not back down. It was impossible to enter the Survival Game without taking risks. He had to go and see what this 'Newbie Benefit' was.

Wang Yu picked up the oil lamp and prepared to leave the shelter. He marked the location of his shelter on the [Game Map] so that no matter where he walked in the dark, he could find his way back to the shelter.

At this moment, Wang Yu received a message.

He clicked on it and saw that it was Qiu Bo looking for him.

[Qiu Bo: Are you there?]

[Wang Yu: Yes, what's up?]

[Qiu Bo: Last time I exchanged the entrenching tool with you for the small hacksaw. It's going to rain at midnight tonight, and I want to trade back for the small hacksaw to chop some firewood.]

[Wang Yu: Okay.]

At this moment, Wang Yu received a trade request.

[Ding, Player Qiu Bo has initiated a trade for an Entrenching Tool *1]

Wang Yu took out the small hacksaw and put it on the trading shelf for the other party.

After clicking confirm, Wang Yu had an entrenching tool in his hand. He had four entrenching tools, so he didn't care about this one and casually placed it in the shelter.

It was going to rain at midnight tonight. It seemed that his previous preparation of firewood was correct. Once it rained, the large trees couldn't be burned. Qiu Bo realized this point and wanted to chop trees to store them. He had chopped trees in advance, which was preparing for a rainy day.

Afterward, Wang Yu immediately left the shelter. He held the oil lamp in one hand and the entrenching tool in the other, heading to the nearest 'Newbie Benefit' marker.

In Wang Yu's [Backpack], there were three crossbows already loaded with arrows. This was his confidence in daring to search for the 'Newbie Benefit'.

When passing through the woods, Wang Yu stopped. He poured the pine oil from four 'Pine Oil Collectors' into a tin bucket before continuing on his way.

Arriving at the creek, he crossed it. The nearest 'Newbie Benefit' marker was on the other side. Wang Yu followed the [Game Map], trying to walk in a straight line.

After walking for a while, it was already past nine o'clock. He could use the dice again to increase the quantity of items.

There were many things this morning. Wang Yu felt the dice in his right hand had recovered, and then he remembered this.

He looked at the items in his [Backpack]. There was nothing that urgently needed its quantity increased. At this moment, he saw a big stone, over 3 meters high and 2 meters wide. Wang Yu walked over and directly increased the quantity of this big stone.

He rolled the dice.

Four points.

Wang Yu rolled a four, increasing the quantity of four big stones.

Wang Yu naturally did not release these four big stones. They could become one of his trump cards.

When he went to search for the 'Newbie Benefit' later, if he encountered any danger, he could directly use the 'Summon Giant Stone Technique'. It was likely that no danger could not be resolved.

Of course, he had to release the four big stones before three PM, otherwise, he could not continue to use the dice to increase item quantities.

Afterward, Wang Yu's pace of travel quickened considerably.

For the 5.3-kilometer journey, Wang Yu took about an hour. In the dark night, he had to advance while ensuring his safety.

When he was only tens of meters away from the 'Newbie Benefit' marker, Wang Yu's pace became even more cautious. He moved forward step by step.

He was sure there was danger ahead.

Wang Yu held the entrenching tool in his hand, ready to use the 'Summon Giant Stone Technique' at any time.

When he was about 10 meters away from the 'Newbie Benefit', Wang Yu saw something ahead.

It was a wooden box.

A wooden box?

The Newbie Benefit must be inside.

At this moment, Wang Yu saw something crawl out from behind the wooden box.

It was a centipede.

A giant centipede, over a meter long.

Wang Yu looked at the centipede's densely packed, wriggling legs, making his scalp tingle. His phobia was triggered.

That thing is too creepy.

Fortunately, the centipede was just lying on the wooden box, raising its disgusting head to look at Wang Yu.

Now Wang Yu understood. The giant centipede wouldn't attack him actively, but if he wanted the contents of the wooden box, he had to kill the giant centipede first.

This giant centipede should be the reason for the 'Newbie Benefit' mentioned in the prompt message, which advised to claim it cautiously.

Since the centipede was lying there motionless, Wang Yu was no longer worried.

He had ranged attack means.

The 'Summon Giant Stone Technique' definitely couldn't be used. A big stone over 3 meters high and 2 meters wide, smashing down at once, would eliminate the centipede, but also the contents of the wooden box.

So Wang Yu took out his crossbow.

He aimed the crossbow at the giant centipede, confident that if he attacked it, the giant centipede would immediately retaliate.

Therefore, Wang Yu had to shoot three crossbow bolts within three to four seconds, severely injuring or directly killing it before the giant centipede could react.

Shooting three crossbow bolts in three to four seconds was Wang Yu's usual training level.

What he needed to do now was not to be nervous.

Then, after the severely injured giant centipede charged, he would calmly use his entrenching tool to counterattack and kill it.

Wang Yu made his combat plan in his mind.

The biggest problem in dealing with this giant centipede was psychological. After all, this thing was too creepy, looking at it made one fearful. Most people wouldn't have the courage to attack such a creature.

Wang Yu took a breath, then aimed at the giant centipede's head and pulled the trigger.

"Swoosh~"

Wang Yu's first arrow directly hit the giant centipede's skull.

The giant centipede's massive body immediately thrashed, its countless legs crawling around in a frenzy.

Wang Yu knew he couldn't falter at this moment. He immediately put away his crossbow, took out the second crossbow, aimed at the giant centipede's body, and pulled the trigger.

"Swoosh~"

He hit it.

Wang Yu immediately shot the third arrow.

"Swoosh~"

After Wang Yu's third arrow hit the giant centipede.

The centipede instantly disappeared.

A prompt message appeared on the ground.
