18: Chapter 18: A Monkey with Intelligence! Everyone was shocked!
An Ke didn't return directly to the camp; instead, he first went to check the nearby traps.
The first one, the second one, the third one...
After checking all the traps, they were all empty, without a single prey.
An Ke was surprised himself; this shouldn't be happening.
At the very least, there should have been one prey.
However, the facts were before him, and he could only sigh helplessly.
In the live broadcast room, the Foreigners, who had been frustrated, finally found an opportunity to attack and became excited.
"Look, look! What kind of prey could that kid's play-house traps catch?"
"Catching prey before was purely good luck."
"Unfortunately, a person's luck is limited."
"Now that his luck has run out, let's see how he dies!"
"..."
However, while the Foreigners were gloating, An Ke, upon returning to the camp, encountered that group of monkeys again.
The monkeys hadn't destroyed An Ke's camp; instead, they were gathered in a circle.
It was as if they were protecting the camp for him.
An Ke couldn't help but smile, feeling quite happy.
Humans are social animals after all; even though An Ke was eating and drinking well, it was inevitable to feel lonely.
Having a troop of monkeys for company was a good thing.
Just as An Ke finished greeting them, Little Scar personally brought over several prey and some bananas.
An Ke raised an eyebrow, then smiled and pointed at the seafood in his hand, saying:
"No need, I have my own food."
"You guys can just eat it yourselves."
However, Little Scar seemed very anxious and barked at one of The monkeys.
Then, that monkey led An Ke to the side of one of the traps.
It then began to gesture wildly with its hands and feet.
An Ke watched for a while, then suddenly realized:
"Do you mean these prey were all taken from my traps?"
"Were you just saying you helped me collect the prey?"
The monkey in front of him immediately began to hoot happily.
It seemed to be answering An Ke, yes, that's exactly it.
An Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I was wondering why my traps hadn't caught any prey."
"It turns out you guys helped me take them."
An Ke couldn't help but laugh out loud, his mood improving even more.
As it turns out, there was absolutely no problem with him setting traps according to top-tier survival knowledge.
An Ke waved his hand: "Let's go! Let's eat!"
"You guys should stay and eat together too!"
Since The monkeys helped, An Ke naturally couldn't let them help for nothing.
Even though he had Natural Affinity, even if he didn't give The monkeys any benefits,
they would still be willing to help An Ke.
But not rewarding them would simply feel wrong.
After learning the truth of the matter,
the Dragon Country people in the live broadcast room straightened their backs once again.
"Haters, speak up!"
"Didn't you say our Great Master Ke's luck had reached its end?"
"So sorry to disappoint you."
"Not only has our Great Master Ke's luck not ended, it's actually better than before."
"Most of the traps caught prey!"
"..."
The Foreigners who had just been attacking were speechless.
They only felt their faces flushing red again, and it even seemed to hurt a little.
Not just a little, it hurt a lot!
It was such a damn slap in the face.
In the program, Kang Hui, Sa Beining, and the others felt so refreshed.
Letting these Foreigners keep clamoring, now they know the pain, right?
However, as public figures on a nationwide program, it wasn't appropriate for them to join the netizens in insults.
After all, they needed to maintain their image.
"Professor Wu, can you explain what's going on with these monkeys?"
"Why do these monkeys seem so intelligent?"
"And they're so good to An Ke!"
Sa Beining was also full of interest; he had never seen animals so attuned to human nature.
Kang Hui's question voiced what everyone was thinking.
Including those Foreigners.
Just why?
It makes no sense!
Could the Dragon Country Kid be a legendary Beast Tamer Master?
It's not that animal trainers don't exist, but one as abnormal as An Ke has never been seen.
Professor Wu was also in a difficult position.
He didn't know what was going on either.
This phenomenon simply couldn't be explained.
Primate animals may be smart, but they can't possibly be this smart.
Professor Wu could only shake his head helplessly in the end:
"I also have the same confusion in my heart as you all."
"It makes no sense!"
Beside him, Liu Yifei spoke with a smile: "I told you, nature also looks at looks!"
In the broadcast!
An Ke's traps had caught a total of four prey.
Because he had seafood, An Ke only kept one of the rabbits.
Then he gave all the other three prey to the Monkey troop.
In addition, An Ke also gave them some seafood and coconuts.
Having lots of food means being that willful!
Of course! This was also because An Ke himself was very confident.
If it were contestants from other countries, they would certainly not give food to monkeys.
After all, what if they didn't catch any prey tomorrow?
In wilderness survival, having one meal and not knowing where the next comes from is common.
Often going hungry is the norm.
The Monkey troop also saw that An Ke had harvested a lot of food this time, so Little Scar didn't refuse.
Receiving this food from An Ke made Little Scar and the others extremely grateful to him.
Even for animals, it's very hard to catch prey in the wild.
But An Ke could catch prey even while he was away.
This made Little Scar and the others revere An Ke like a deity.
The key was that this "deity" was also very generous, giving away food with a wave of his hand.
Little Scar immediately let out a roar.
The next second, the group of monkeys immediately bowed before An Ke.
Expressing their gratitude to him.
This made An Ke very surprised; as expected of primates, they really have spirit.
At the same time, this scene also made the audience in the live broadcast room marvel.
They felt increasingly lucky that they had evolved quickly, otherwise they would be replaced by other monkeys.
However, although they were attuned to human nature, they were still wild animals at heart.
Before nightfall, the Monkey troop began to return to their nighttime habitat.
Although An Ke felt it was a pity and hoped the Monkey troop could stay here with him for the night,
he also knew he had to respect The monkeys' habits.
Secondly, having more living creatures together is actually less safe.
It's very likely to attract large carnivores.
An Ke composed himself and began to focus on preparing tonight's food.
Now he had not only lobsters but also sea fish and other types of seafood like shellfish.
Tonight, An Ke was guaranteed to have a feast.
Eating even more sumptuously than last night.
As the fire roasted them, the food all made a "sizzle sizzle" sound, looking mouth-watering.
It was hard to imagine just how delicious it was.
In the live broadcast room, whether locals or Foreigners, everyone was incredibly envious.
They wished they could crawl into the screen and join An Ke for dinner.
Unfortunately, it was simply impossible.
They could only watch helplessly as An Ke roasted the dinner and then enjoyed it blissfully.
At the very top, Elder Li watched the screen, his heart full of emotion.
What An Ke was eating now was even better than what he, the supreme leader, had.
It was simply a perfect dinner, and all the bullet comments were envious.
