After this meal, everyone was content, with Queenie, Nicole, and others patting their satisfied stomachs, lying comfortably on the grass beds, chatting and laughing.Seeing everyone so happy, I also felt very satisfied.I casually glanced at our cave, thinking that this place indeed had a homely feeling.Using metal plates salvaged from the plane, we crafted a table and several chairs. The cave's ground was covered with a lot of straw, and the sense of accomplishment from creating something out of nothing made each of us genuinely joyful.If we could leave this place alive, the hardships we endured on this island would be a tremendous wealth for everyone.This night, the atmosphere in the cave was exceptionally good. Even Queenie and Nicole, who rarely refrained from arguing, didn't quarrel and even exchanged compliments. It felt like a rare moment of peace.The only concern was the dropping temperature. Despite huddling around the bonfire, contracting

In the midst of the swirling snow, I looked at the several animal corpses cleared out before me, and a dark cloud seemed to cast a shadow over my heart.Buried in the snowy ground were three robust black wolves. They weren't frozen to death but rather bitten to death! Each fatal wound on the black wolves was on their necks, with powerful bites severing their throats.Their bodies had almost no other injuries. This indicated that the mysterious predator killed the black wolves effortlessly, and the wolf pack had no resistance.The wounds were horrifying, with huge bite marks that made the heart race. I had never heard of any animal capable of hunting black wolves so easily. Even tigers and lions couldn't achieve such a feat.As far as I knew, top predators like wolves, lions, and tigers usually didn't engage in deadly battles with each other. Hunting other animals was much easier, and they didn't need to kill each other.More importantly, this mysterious and

As the creature's claws continued their frenzied assault, the hole in the door grew larger, and wood chips rained down like a storm.Cracks began to appear in other parts of the door, as if it were on the verge of shattering at any moment!The terrified faces of the girls turned pale, and they were too scared to move. Despair filled their eyes.If it continued, the door wouldn't last much longer, and once that creature broke in with its terrifying size and predatory abilities, we would be doomed!Even though I had a gun in my hands, it seemed useless. In close quarters, I wouldn't have time to shoot before it killed me.Earlier, if it hadn't been for the flashlight momentarily confusing the creature, I wouldn't have had a chance to shoot.The Type 38 rifle required pulling the bolt after each shot. In a close encounter, I wouldn't have time to shoot multiple times before being killed. These old-fashioned firearms were only terrifying when in large numbe

After the horrifying encounter with the thylacine, our days became increasingly cautious.That afternoon, I dug a new toilet inside the cave.It was deep and directly connected to the underground river beneath the cave. Our waste would be washed away by the river, ensuring hygiene wouldn't be a problem.To our relief, under Cindy's attentive care, Cynthia's condition gradually improved.Although she remained weak, the fever had subsided, and she was much more alert. At least she could now eat without any issues.Cynthia was genuinely grateful to me and Cindy. Several times she attempted to express her gratitude, leaving Cindy flustered and blushing.Apart from this good news, everything else seemed to be heading in a negative direction.Our days grew more challenging.Firstly, food became scarcer, and we had to be frugal, often going to sleep hungry.Although I spent a considerable amount of time searching for food, my efficiency decrease

"Chris, this is great! We can finally go back! We're going back!" Normally reserved and shy, Chris couldn't contain her excitement. At that moment, she threw herself into my arms and shouted joyfully.Even Queenie, who rarely let down her guard, hurriedly swallowed the meat in her mouth. With a slightly flushed face, she looked at me and said, "Christopher, due to some misunderstandings in the past, I must apologize to you today. Actually, you are truly a rare good man!"Mandy didn't say anything but just held my hand.As for Cynthia, she didn't need to say anything. She looked like she wanted to speak, but tears welled up in her eyes. Her life had been saved by me.Under the flickering firelight, the faces of the girls were so beautiful. This scene was deeply engraved in my heart, unforgettable for a lifetime.There's a saying that real men don't shed tears easily, but at this moment, my eyes were already brimming with tears.The experiences of life an
