55: Chapter 55 Nationwide Exploration, Adorable Little Leopard!

In the bullet comments, many countries with favorable feelings toward Dragon Country became excited.

Pakistan: "I hope it's our country's contestant, so we can cling to big brother Dragon Country's leg."

"Hahaha! It's our little brother Pakistan!"

"Welcome, welcome!"

"We also hope it's your country's contestant, so we can better help your country."

"Dragon and Pakistan are of one heart!"

"Surely Boss An would also be very happy to help your country! Hahaha!"

Not just Pakistan, but Goryeo, Woolly Bear... and other countries were also hoping it was their own country's contestant.

For these countries, everyone in Dragon Country was naturally welcoming.

After all, the relations between their countries were already quite good.

Especially Pakistan and Egypt.

They had both helped Dragon Country escape crises in the past.

However, those countries that weren't very friendly to Dragon Country also hoped it was their own country's contestant.

Because being close to An Ke meant having a stable source of water.

And with the abundance of food near An Ke, obtaining food would certainly be a bit easier.

Most crucially, if they encountered a beast attack...

And couldn't defend against it, they could run toward An Ke's side.

The Dragon Country representative surely couldn't just stand by and watch them die, right?

In a global live broadcast, personal actions were not just personal.

Instead, they rose to the level of national behavior.

If done poorly, it would become a diplomatic incident between both sides.

It would make Dragon Country lose its prestige as a major power.

As for killing?

That was even more impossible.

Because it could very likely trigger a war in the real world.

If the Dragon Country Contestant really dared to take action, not only would that country retaliate...

But it would also make other countries reject Dragon Country.

Moreover, the [National Fortune Game] was a competition of each other's wilderness survival skills.

It likely wouldn't let everyone kill each other.

So, considering everything, being near An Ke...

No matter which country it was, there were benefits.

Countries all over the world began to hope.

Meanwhile, An Ke rubbed his chin, falling into deep thought.

"[National Fortune Game] is broadcast globally, which means countless eyes are watching him."

"In that case, many things he wants to do will be restricted."

"Now he can only take it one step at a time."

In short, no matter which country's contestant it was.

An Ke would give a warning and tell them to leave.

If the other party was stubborn and unyielding, then they couldn't blame him for being unkind.

After all, the [National Fortune Game] had stated clearly from the beginning.

Do not trust anyone.

Of course! The premise still depended on which country's contestant it was.

If it were a contestant from a country like Pakistan or Woolly Bear, his attitude would still be a bit better.

Pulling back his thoughts.

An Ke said to Jingang, who was standing on his shoulder:

"Jingang, what did that person specifically look like? Did you see?"

Based on their appearance, he could roughly judge where the other party came from.

Jingang chirped and cried out.

After all, it couldn't say many words yet.

Fortunately, there was [Natural Affinity], which allowed An Ke to understand its words.

"I didn't see."

"After I saw the human footprints, I came back to tell you immediately."

An Ke nodded.

He decided to let Jingang find the other party and track their movements.

Along with the other party's appearance and some minor details.

After all, one should not harbor intentions to harm others, but one must always be on guard against them.

What if the other party harbored hostility?

Although he had the Leopard and Little Scar's troop of monkeys as guards.

The other party was human, after all.

One can never underestimate the enemy.

Meanwhile, other countries in the outside world were also busily taking action.

Many countries were collecting information while observing the surroundings of their own National Destiny Bearers.

To see if there was an environment similar to Dragon Country's An Ke.

This [National Fortune Game] involved the entire world and the national fortune of countries for the next hundred or even thousand years.

The Dragon Country High Command naturally took it very seriously.

Without the knowledge of ordinary people, the high commands of various countries were collecting intelligence on other countries' National Destiny Bearers.

And even all the environments they passed through.

At this moment, facing an opportunity that could very likely change the national fortune, countries naturally wouldn't let it go.

As long as they discovered their National Destiny Bearer passing through a place An Ke had been to.

They would immediately use their precious once-a-week 100-character bullet comment message without hesitation.

A week had already passed, and the bullet comments for all countries had refreshed.

In the live broadcast, under An Ke's command, Jingang spread its wings and flew into the sky again.

Before it left, An Ke repeatedly urged Jingang to act cautiously.

It mustn't become someone else's meal.

After making the arrangements, An Ke decided to put this matter out of his mind.

After all, without knowing the other party's location, thinking about it was meaningless.

It was also impossible for the other party to be monitoring him in secret.

If they were really doing that, the Dragon Country High Command would definitely send him a bullet comment immediately.

As long as there were no bullet comments, it meant he was safe!

An Ke continued to improve his Camp as if nothing had happened.

At the same time, there was reinforcement work.

After all, a beast attack could occur at the Camp at any time now.

And he couldn't stay in the Camp all the time; he needed to go out and explore other places.

To collect supplies and obtain more resources.

During the time he was out, the Camp would be empty.

Once a wild beast broke in, his hard work over these past few days would be in vain.

Especially fragile items like ceramics.

Even if he slaughtered that wild beast afterward to vent his anger, what good would it do?

To reinforce the Camp, thick trees had to be used.

Felling thick trees was no small feat.

After all, there was only one stone axe, and its quality was just so-so; the felling speed was very slow.

He basically had to wear them down, taking several minutes to cut down one tree.

And transporting thick trees was also very strenuous.

Even with the Monkey troop's assistance, progress was still relatively slow.

Fortunately, An Ke's proficiency in Woodcutting was increasing.

As he laboriously "wore down" a tree until it fell, a notification sounded in his mind:

[Woodcutting proficiency increased!]

[Current level LV.2!]

Along with the level up, An Ke felt his strength increase.

At the same time, his tree-felling skills also improved.

He knew how to cut trees with less effort.

Which tricky angle to strike from to cause more damage to the tree.

Efficiency had clearly increased several times over.

Live broadcast bullet comments:

"Is it my imagination? Why does it feel like An Ke's Woodcutting technique has gotten better?"

"It's not your imagination. I calculated it; before, it took at least ten minutes to cut down a tree."

"But now it only takes a few minutes."

"Is it that miraculous? How did Boss An do it?"

"By the way, isn't Boss An a bit too cautious?"

"He has Bees, the Leopard, and monkey bodyguards, yet he still spends a lot of time reinforcing the Camp?"

"If it were me, I'd probably just choose to lie flat."

"..."

While An Ke was cutting trees.

The idle Little Leopard also imitated The monkeys' actions, wanting to help An Ke transport the trees.

However, its tiny body couldn't move the trees even a fraction of an inch.

The Little Leopard was so angry that it bared its teeth and hissed at the trees.

This scene directly amused the live broadcast room viewers.

Everyone was melted by the Little Leopard's cuteness.
