Liang Jian: I have a canteen

The black pills that Princess Phantom gave to Lisa were called "military ration pills," which are the high-energy foods from Naruto.

To put it simply, they're high-quality compressed biscuits. If you have the means, soaking or boiling them in water, and adding some salt or sugar makes them taste quite good. It's just a pity that the current situation is special, so we don't have to be so particular.

After walking for about ten minutes, a blurry shadow finally appeared before them. With the help of the moonlight, they could clearly see that it was a forest.

After walking a few quick steps, the two disappeared into the woods.

As soon as Lisa entered the woods, she felt a chilling wind, which made her shiver again.

Unlike the seaside, the wind here is much more biting, giving you the feeling that the wind is seeping into your very bones.

Huanji stopped in her tracks, and Lisa quickly asked, "Do we live here?"

Huanji nodded slightly, walked to a big tree, patted it with her hand, and then picked up a few branches from the ground and felt them in her hand. "The branches here are quite damp, and there will be a lot of smoke when we start a fire later."

“Then what do I need to do?” Lisa asked.

"Go and get some dry branches," Huanji replied casually, then leaped onto a branch and disappeared from sight after a few more jumps.

As Lisa watched the vanished Phantom Princess, she suddenly felt the surrounding darkness grow even deeper.

She pursed her lips slightly and began to gather twigs by the dim moonlight.

It's not so bad now. Although it's very dark, at least I have people around me. Before, when I was in the lab, all I had around me were cold instruments and those hypocritical bastards in white coats.

There weren't many usable branches, and Lisa spent half an hour picking and choosing before she could pile them up into a small heap.

After sorting them by thickness and wiping the sweat from her forehead, Lisa realized that Huanji had appeared beside her without her noticing.

After examining it, Huanji said, "Not bad, it's better than I expected!"

"I'm not some rich girl! I can do this kind of simple thing!" Lisa pouted and said angrily.

But after she finished speaking, she found that Huanji was completely unmoved, and instead pulled out a bird from somewhere. The bird was not dead, and it was struggling in Huanji's hand, looking quite pitiful.

Lisa swallowed hard. "Can it be eaten?"

“It’s edible!” Huanji said, then twisted the bird’s neck and used a kunai to cut open its blood vessels and start bleeding it out.

With a casual gesture, she nailed the bird to the tree trunk and started a fire.

Seeing this, Lisa quickly came over to help, "Where did you hide those daggers? I can't see them at all!"

After taking out the phosphorus powder and flint used for starting the fire, Huanji said, "Hiding these requires some skill. What, do you want to learn?"

"Yes, yes!" Lisa nodded quickly. "I want to learn it, to learn it for self-defense."

With a few quick snaps, Huanji ignited the phosphorus powder.

The phosphorus powder burned, which in turn set the semi-dry branches below ablaze.

Soon, small flames began to appear and gradually stabilized.

A cloud of choking smoke rose up, and Lisa quickly moved to the downwind side.

Instead of dodging, Huanji lay down on the ground and started blowing.

After a few breaths, once the fire had grown a bit bigger, Huanji added a few more slightly thicker branches.

After about five or six minutes, the small flame finally stabilized and turned into a small bonfire.

Lisa, imitating Huanji, found a similar branch and added it to the fire. "I can't believe we got a fire going so quickly. I thought it would take at least an hour!" (End of Chapter)
