Chapter 7 7 Trap Master

In the end, Allen finally cut off the five trees before the sunset. He was satisfied with the experience points and carried one of the sun-facing dry trees.

"It's good for tonight's fuel." He thought.

After returning to the temporary residence, Natalie cautiously poked her head out of the cottage when she heard the noise, with a wooden stick in her hand. She was on high alert.

But when she saw it was Allen, she immediately let out a sigh of relief and threw away the wooden stick. She was worried sick when Allen left. Now she saw him come back, she couldn't help running over and hugging him.

"What's this? A loving hug?"

Allen felt a gust of breeze hit into his arms. The female breath from Natalie instantly smoothed his tiredness.

"I thought you abandoned me..."

Hearing Natalie's whimpering voice, Allen threw the tree and branches that Natalie had almost hit onto the ground and began to comfort her.

"Don't be silly. I'm back. It's okay. I'm here."

After comforting her for a while, Natalie finally let go of him.

Allen put his hand on Natalie's waist naturally. The subtle and warm feeling made Allen excited.

It was dangerous for two people to be so close.

In order not to make a fool of himself, and it was indeed not a good time for anything to happen, Allen could only divert his attention.

So, he told Natalie what had just happened.

"Natalie, I have something to tell you."

Natalie raised her head and looked at the sympathy and sadness in Allen's eyes. She had a bad feeling.

"What is it?"

But she didn't know why she was still a bit dizzy.

She almost fell in love with Allen's starry eyes.

She wondered why she hadn't found these eyes so attractive before.

As a result, Natalie didn't notice that her smooth legs were involuntarily pressed together, and she even clenched them unconsciously.

However, after Allen finished his words, Natalie's heart sank in an instant, giving her only the pain and sadness of being abandoned.

"I just met Jessica and others!"

"Great! Where are they? Why didn't they come together?"

Natalie looked behind Allen, but there was no one there. She looked confused.

"Well... They didn't come, and that's what happened."

Allen repeated what had happened.

Natalie was not a three-year-old anymore. She immediately understood the intentions of Jennifer and others and said with a sad face:

"What? They just abandoned me like this? We said that we would always be good friends. Now when the disaster came, they just gave me up..."

She lowered her head and leaned against Allen's chest. She didn't want him to see her tearful eyes. This was her last stubbornness.

But Allen could tell from her trembling hand that she was trying to hold back her sadness and pretend to be strong, so he comforted her.

"It doesn't matter. You still have me. We will be fearless when we are together."

Hearing Allen's words, Natalie was moved and felt safe, but she didn't reply immediately. She just quietly leaned against Allen's arms to calm down.

Finally, she raised her head and said with red eyes.

"I know. Thank you, Allen. Thank you for looking for these branches outside. If you don't mind, I... I've prepared dinner. I hope you like it..."

Embarrassed, Natalie pointed to the bonfire. Allen looked at it.

"Good girl. The coconut shell is used as a container. You indeed have a sense of survival. You are not a vase at all. In this way, I can save a lot of things! Good!"

After complimenting Natalie, Allen asked with a smile, "Then what delicious food did our good Natalie cook? Did you catch a fish?"

Allen asked casually, but he didn't expect that Natalie's answer immediately made him feel sick.

"It's crabs. How can I catch fish? Allen, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad all of a sudden?"

"Nothing, I'm fine."

Allen grabbed Natalie's hand which was about to reach out to his forehead and pulled her to the side of the coconut shell. "I just didn't expect you to have such a skill. It looks... very good."

Allen hadn't eaten anything for the past two days, and his stomach had been empty for a long time. The desire to survive naturally overwhelmed his disgusting feeling. He slowly sat down, forgetting the scene that these crabs had eaten at Adam's flesh.

"Come on, let's eat together."

The two had a good meal. Allen looked at the sunset in the sky and thought, now it's time to do something else after my stomach is full!

With an idea in his mind, he asked Natalie to go to bed. Then he looked at the skill, trap master, which he got after cutting down the five trees and collecting 3000 experience points.

"It depends on this skill whether we can spend the night peacefully or not!"

It was a lie that he was not nervous. Allen knew that the wolves had been marked and investigated last night, and they might attack at any time.

So, Allen couldn't sit and wait for death. He had to take the initiative.

And his confidence came from the draft brought by the skill, trap master.

"Ding, trap master has been successfully activated. The draft function is activated!"

"Ding! You got the draft of the arrow wall and the spike trap!"

"Interesting. In this case, the big tree will play a greater role tonight. But I guess we would lack fuel, and the branches will be burnt out quickly. Without the main bonfire, it may not be able to hold on for the whole night."

"But it's too late to carry another big tree back now."

Allen was not an indecisive person. He made the decision as soon as he found the problem.

"Forget it! It doesn't matter! Wealth comes from danger. If any wolf enters my trap, they will die and others will turn back, make a comeback tomorrow night. Then, I will kill them all!"

After Allen finished his plan, he came to the big tree and closed his eyes. Then he took out his ax and began to think about the specific production process of the two traps, arrow wall, and spike trap.

Slowly, he squatted down. With the basic craftsmanship skill, he could use his self-made ax to create smoothly on a big tree.
