Live Strong in the Wilderness

Chapter 544: Gong Bin’s Guess

The word "home" is simple, yet complex.

Because it carries so many emotions within it.

For some people, home is a warm haven. For others, it’s a cold prison.

Different situations lead to different understandings and perceptions of home.

However, a house is an indispensable condition for forming a home.

Especially in the eyes of the Chinese, a house is extremely important.

This is why there exists a very distorted real estate market.

Gong Bin had built houses for others for over ten years, and this time he finally built one for himself.

Now for him, building a house has become much easier thanks to telekinesis.

Cranes and lifts are no longer needed; many tasks can be completed just by telekinesis.

Busy times also seem to pass particularly quickly.

In just one day, Gong Bin’s house underwent significant changes.

Gong Bin was quite satisfied with his efficiency. Now, his efficiency has improved at least tenfold compared to before.

It’s not only because of his telekinesis but also because his physical strength has increased.

Nowadays, he can easily lift stones weighing seven to eight hundred pounds, something he could never do before.

His work efficiency surprised viewers.

A Level 4 Mage is almost equivalent to an entire construction team.

After dinner, Tian Ming and Zhu Jun were much better, and both of them could sit up.

If it weren’t on Spirit Blue Star, they would surely have died.

Among the previous eliminators, some died from severe injuries.

The main reason they survived was Gong Bin’s timely treatment.

"Bin, what’s your plan now? Is this place safe?" Tian Ming asked while eating.

After all, this concerned his safety.

"This place is very safe. It was personally chosen by Brother Xu, located inside a Meteorite Crater. Additionally, Brother Xu installed more than a dozen cameras to let us see the situation down the mountain, making it a very safe place."

In his words, Gong Bin was full of respect for Xu Yi.

Tian Ming and Zhu Jun both noticed this.

After speaking, Gong Bin opened the tent flaps and pointed outside, saying, "I plan to build a house here and settle down in the future. Once Brother Xu succeeds in his challenge, I’ll find a way to bring my parents over and then find a wife."

Saying this, Gong Bin revealed a simple and honest smile, with a look of longing for the future in his eyes.

Tian Ming paused his chopsticks, glanced at Gong Bin, and said, "To this planet?"

"Bin, don’t you think this planet is too dangerous? Fierce Beasts are everywhere, and there are only a few safe places. Especially for newcomers, it takes about a hundred days to activate their telekinesis."

"Moreover, those leaders will also come here. Now that we can’t go back, will they ask us to continue challenging with them?"

Next to him, Zhu Jun nodded, believing that Lei Jie would definitely want him and Tian Ming to rejoin the team. After all, those people are ambitious and need manpower.

"Yes, they will definitely want us to continue the challenge. Anyway, the Spirit Race didn’t prevent it, but if we continue, there won’t be a second chance." This injury made Zhu Jun hesitant about continuing.

Death is still something to fear.

"Then let’s join Brother Xu’s team. This way, they won’t dare to make us risk our lives for them." Gong Bin knew that neither Li Kang, Jerry, nor Lei Jie dared to offend Xu Yi.

If they became Xu Yi’s subordinates, Li Kang, Jerry, and Lei Jie wouldn’t dare to coerce them.

"Joining Xu Yi’s team, is it possible? His team might not accept others. If I could join his team, even if it means risking my life for him, I’d be willing," Tian Ming said somewhat helplessly.

After all, many people want to become Xu Yi’s subordinates. As long as you become one, you get to use a mount, and your safety is greatly assured.

Unfortunately, Xu Yi’s team never recruits people.

Everyone now knows that Xu Yi’s team follows an elite path, with exceptionally strong abilities.

If not for Xu Yi, they wouldn’t have been transported here.

"We must give it a try. I’ve known Brother Xu since the early days in the Desert. Besides, he saved me twice. Joining his team wouldn’t be about continuing the challenge but staying here to help Brother Xu with some tasks." Gong Bin was filled with gratitude toward Xu Yi; if not for Xu Yi’s help twice, he would’ve died in the Desert.

"Help with what?" Zhu Jun immediately asked, as becoming a member of Xu Yi’s team would mean no longer being cannon fodder.

"Build a base. Brother Xu selected this place as a transmission point for eliminators, likely hoping it can be a long-term base." Gong Bin had observed this place and deemed it suitable as a permanent camp.

Because there’s a water source here, not just in the Meteorite Crater’s pond, but also a river at the mountain’s foot.

The development of human civilization is inseparable from rivers.

This Meteorite Crater could easily accommodate thousands of people.

After completing the challenge, Xu Yi and his team definitely wouldn’t leave Spirit Blue Star. They would need to continue practicing, naturally requiring some supply of materials.

After all, they couldn’t spend time on production or research themselves.

Humans newly entering Spirit Blue Star require time to awaken their telekinesis, let alone reach Level 4, or even Level 5. The time required to get here is unknown.

There’s a transmission coordinate here, of course.

Completing the challenge gives a chance to learn some technologies from the Spirit Race, which would be a reward from them, and everyone knows this now.

As long as Xu Yi and his team can master the Spirit Race’s transmission technology, they can return here anytime to resupply.

"How do you know Xu Yi wants to establish a permanent base here?" Zhu Jun was somewhat incredulous because if Gong Bin were correct, Xu Yi would indeed need manpower, increasing their chances of joining his team.

"Because Brother Xu once mentioned establishing a supply base, and I think this place is very suitable, so I guessed he would do this. Whether it’s true or not, we’ll know when Brother Xu returns. If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Ke and the others should also be arriving at this place soon." Gong Bin had interacted with Xu Yi’s team and knew their teamwork was impeccable.

Moreover, he discovered a Star Chart in the pond. He thought it might be a coordinate Xu Yi left for Lu Ke and her team, guiding them to meet here.
