CHAPTER 30: CHAPTER 30: LUMBER

"This is the island."

The white light dissipated, and Zhou Yingting looked around, seeing the lush trees all around him.

At this moment, Zhou Yingting first looked at his attribute panel.

On his attribute panel, the original attribute entries had disappeared.

Replacing them was a profession entry.

Profession: Architect, afraid of Warrior + Archer + Poison Master.

Skills: Construction Technique (materials insufficient).

Zhou Yingting then continued looking down, and saw a small map appear below that shouldn’t have been there initially.

The small map overall presented the shape of the island, and on this island map appeared small red dots.

These red dots represent the Warriors, Poison Masters, Archers.

Upon seeing this scene, Zhou Yingting’s face couldn’t help but twitch.

Previously, when he saw this entry, Zhou Yingting realized his Golden Finger was acting strangely.

In the past, there were solutions provided; this time, it directly pinpointed other threatening professions.

In this way, as long as he avoids these professions that pose a threat to him, he could neutralize the negative effects.

Zhou Yingting realized this point, so he chose Architect.

Because this way, no matter what profession other teams select, Zhou Yingting could lock onto these people.

The only professions he couldn’t lock onto were the Medical Soldier and Architect.

But in the choice of five professions, even if how other teams select, it’s impossible for three people to only choose Medical Soldiers and Architects.

They might just encounter other dangers or run into other teams.

Ultimately, perhaps only the Medical Soldier and Architect would survive.

If that truly happens, even encountering them wouldn’t matter.

After all, Zhou Yingting can’t be single-handedly killed by a Medical Soldier.

Moreover, the Architect seemed to have another unique feature.

On the panel in front of Zhou Yingting, at this moment, a safe zone was marked.

Such an abruptly appearing safe zone made Zhou Yingting ponder a bit.

Judging from the panel information, it seems only being there will be considered safe.

Is this trying to drive everyone toward this direction?

If that’s the case, it makes sense. Given such a big island, without the use of other methods, with everyone scattered so far apart, if truly trying to decide the victory, who knows how long it will take.

Nonetheless, the urgency now seems to be finding some materials.

Zhou Yingting looked down and saw he had some cutting tools in hand.

His skill being Construction Technique should be usable in the competition.

Judging from the current situation, the Medical Soldier’s skill should be healing and antidotes, while the Poison Master’s skill should be poisoning.

As for the Archer, it’s likely shooting arrows.

Regarding the Warrior, currently, it’s unclear, perhaps defense or charging.

After organizing the situation roughly, Zhou Yingting immediately looked around.

While Zhou Yingting was pondering how to find materials, suddenly a light in front of him, and soon he saw a large tree shining with some brightness.

The information of this large tree directly appeared in front of him.

"Pine tree, burns well."

Looking at the flashing information in front of him, Zhou Yingting tightened his grip on the axe in his hand.

It seems this was the Architect’s unique recognition skill.

Without hesitation, Zhou Yingting took his axe and immediately went forward to start cutting it down.

Due to his profession, Zhou Yingting found it very handy to cut down the tree in front of him. With just a few strikes, he chopped down the tree.

Only when Zhou Yingting moved forward to pick up the wood and prepared to take it away, a light ray emerged from the materials on the ground.

’Entry: Pine material.’

"Something seems off...."

I chopped down the tree, collected the materials needed for building, then where to build?

Looking at the information divided by the Golden Finger, it seems I need to enter the safe zone.

If that’s the case, surely I can’t keep cutting trees and collecting materials while heading to the safe zone.

If done this way, reaching the safe zone would be arduous, and when the materials accumulate, they definitely would become too much to carry.

"I have to enter the safe zone first. Currently, it seems others don’t know about the safe zone’s location."

"If I swiftly enter the safe zone, I can then gather materials freely and use the Construction Technique."

Zhou Yingting’s mind stirred, he bent down to pick up the pine material in front, and it was of considerable weight.

Realizing this, Zhou Yingting knew he couldn’t collect wood and advance to the safe zone at the same time.

If done like this, surely he would be hampered.

Thinking this through, Zhou Yingting didn’t hesitate anymore and immediately headed to the safe zone.

Zhou Yingting quickly ran toward the safe zone while checking the map.

At the moment on the small map, Zhou Yingting could see nearly twenty red dots.

Among these over twenty red dots, there were one or two small red dots gathered, with some parts where three small red dots gathered into a large red dot.

These red dots seem to be collecting some materials due to their respective professional traits.

Watching this scene, Zhou Yingting found it extremely familiar.

"This seems like playing PUBG...."

"If it truly is like PUBG, then later there might be a toxic area, right?"

"If a toxic area appears, the Medical Soldier might become useful."

"If there’s a team that chose a Medical Soldier, it’s likely that soldier is searching for herbs somewhere."

While Zhou Yingting quickly ran, he avoided encountering players along the way.

The sun above the island was exceedingly scorching, Zhou Yingting ran for less than an hour and immediately felt unbearably thirsty.

"Here, do I have to find water to drink? Playing it this way?"

Zhou Yingting gasped for breath, stopped running, and started scanning his surroundings while walking.

If this instance is designed like this, surely it will refresh some water sources for them.

There should also be food.

Perhaps it was an illusion, Zhou Yingting felt slightly hungry again.

Zhou Yingting looked around. While running here, he managed to see quite a few glowing things.

With those water sources, maybe they have some brightness.

After walking for half an hour or so, suddenly a bright light caught his attention.

Upon seeing this light, Zhou Yingting immediately walked over, pushed aside the bushes for a look, and then saw an entry he hadn’t seen before suddenly appearing in front of him.

’Entry: water.’

Simple as it may be, just ’water’ made Zhou Yingting pause.

When Zhou Yingting stepped forward to take this entry, he saw that it turned into a bottle of water, silently lying in his hand.
