CHAPTER 58: CHAPTER 10: FEAST OF ENTRIES

In the face of facts, even the netizens were speechless.

Even the members of the men’s team were quite impressed.

Look, the support team under Wang Zhi’s leadership didn’t accomplish anything, and the fire went out several times.

But Chen Wen had only been here for a morning, and the shelter was already sorted out!

Nothing compares to contrast.

With this comparison, little chubby Wang Zhi became the target of everyone’s jokes.

However, Wang Zhi didn’t mind.

He directly clung to Chen Wen, calling him master.

Chen Wen chuckled and waved his hand, calling himself a peer.

In just one morning, he had initially integrated into this group.

But on Gan Tieshan’s face, besides joy, there was also some gloom.

...

The sumptuous lunch began after the first small hut was completed.

Although the fieldwork group’s harvest couldn’t match the support group’s, overall, it was quite good.

The big catch was a grouper, a brown-spotted grouper weighing nearly nine pounds, also called a tiger grouper.

The smaller ones included things like sea snails, crabs, and so on.

There were plenty.

Moreover, Chen Wen also managed to get a snake and some banana fruit.

The snake was skinned and roasted over the fire, while each person got a banana fruit.

Chen Wen looked at this food, his eyes lighting up.

To others, this was just food.

But for him, it was all sorts of entries!

This time he really came to the right place!

No need to leave home, entries in hand!

Chen Wen chuckled, asking Du Feng to give him a bit of each food.

Du Feng didn’t object.

The first small hut built by Chen Wen was his, and his goodwill towards Chen Wen skyrocketed.

Even his resentment about dealing with dung disappeared without a trace.

Soon, the food was in hand.

Chen Wen started eating without hesitation.

The first bite was the meat of the tiger grouper.

The tiger grouper not only tasted good but wasn’t a protected species; it was an economic fish.

You could find many videos online on how to cook tiger grouper.

Chen Wen took a bite of the grilled fish meat with the skin.

The fish skin was thick and fragrant, like the fried dough pieces eaten during the New Year in his past life.

Crunchy and delicious.

After being grilled over an open flame, the fish meat did have a charred taste and was quite dark.

But there was absolutely nothing wrong with its taste.

The soft and slightly chewy texture conquered everyone.

Everyone was engrossed in eating, and no one was speaking at all.

[Please make a choice within one minute or forfeit! Failure to choose will default to the first entry!]

Just choose the expensive one, not the right one.

After choosing an entry, Chen Wen turned to eat another piece of seafood.

This piece seemed to be conch meat.

As soon as the conch meat touched his tongue, Chen Wen couldn’t help but frown.

It had sand!

The conch meat hadn’t been properly handled, making it uncomfortable to eat.

Reminiscing about the first day with a radula!

Chen Wen thought, hoping this conch would drop an entry similar to the radula.

But he was disappointed.

[Targeting the natural creation—Cowrie Conch, plundering!]

[Plundering... Plundering complete!]

[Please choose one of the following three entries]

[Please make a choice within one minute or forfeit! Failure to choose will default to the first entry!]

Bush, Gomen!

Chen Wen almost spat out the conch meat in his mouth.

When the entries appeared, the dazzling gold almost blinded Chen Wen.

It was a golden drop!

Chen Wen almost stood up and shouted Wuhuu with excitement!

Result!

This golden entry?

Why is it completely useless!

Change appearance, increase charm, attract the opposite sex.

Alright, I admit it’s somewhat useful.

But what use does it have for survival?

Huh?

Chen Wen felt his mindset was affected.

If it were a negative golden entry, he wouldn’t say anything.

But this...

Chen Wen hesitated for a moment and didn’t follow his principle of picking the expensive option over the right one.

The reason is simple.

Changing his appearance now might cause big trouble!

The show wouldn’t need to be filmed, they’d directly take him away for research.

For Chen Wen right now.

This entry should be considered negative!

Feeling helpless, Chen Wen chose the previously appeared [Snail Sound].

A white entry that was better than nothing.

Opening his eyes with some disappointment, Chen Wen looked at the other food in the coconut bowl.

He picked a piece of boiled banyan.

Chen Wen felt no mental pressure and ate it in one go.

The taste was average, with a very strange flavor.

But as long as it’s edible, it’s fine.

Chen Wen recalled that his grandfather in this life used to soak this snake in alcohol, something called Three Snake Wine.

[For the natural creation - over-tree snake, initiate plundering!]

[Please make a selection or forfeit within one minute! After the deadline, the first entry will be automatically selected!]

"Are there frogs or the like on the island?"

Chen Wen didn’t choose immediately but looked at Yan Bian.

Yan Bian thought for a moment and shook his head, "Haven’t seen or heard any, why?"

"It’s nothing, just asked casually."

Chen Wen shook his head and chose [Boost Start].

Next was the banana-like fruit.

Chen Wen peeled the green skin of the banana-like fruit, revealing the white flesh inside.

"Can you eat this thing?"

Seeing Chen Wen’s actions, Lu Heng asked from the side.

Chen Wen broke the flesh apart and said, "Why not?"

Then he directly tossed the flesh into his mouth.

Chewed.

Geneva!

Damn, it’s sour!

Chen Wen felt like he was eating a lemon!

But he maintained his composure and said, "See, it’s edible, tastes pretty good, like a banana."

Lu Heng heard this and, half-believing, half-doubting, shoved the banana-like fruit into his mouth.

Then Chen Wen was stared at by a resentful gaze.

"It’s indeed delicious, hmm, the banana flavor is stronger than some bananas!"

Lu Heng said through gritted teeth.

Yan Bian seemed to notice something, quietly put down his banana-like fruit.

But others didn’t have such keen perception.

Gan Tieshan curiously gave it a try, then silently looked at Lu Heng, and finally turned his head to look at Chen Wen who was still praising the fruit.

Wang Zhi ate a whole one in one go, then bowed his head.

Bai Yachuan and Lv Guocheng didn’t pay attention, and directly ate it.

Two more bowed heads.

Zhuo Hongnian’s clear eyes changed.

For the first time, he felt the treachery of human nature.

Du Feng saw everyone saying it was delicious, and couldn’t resist taking a bite.

Then Du Feng’s leg took a heavy hit.

He smiled, pinching his thigh, and said, "Truly delicious!"

Finally, the honest Zhang Hu took a bite, marking the end of this farce.

"Damn it! So sour! You’re killing me!"

Pfft!

Everyone couldn’t hold it in any longer, and they all grimaced and spat out the banana-like fruit.

"Damn, Chen Wen, you look honest, but you’re actually dishonest!"

"Damn! Lu Heng, don’t blame me, why didn’t you tell them?"

"Damn, I suffered, why let them laugh at me? Why didn’t the others speak?"

"We all thought the same!"
