Starting from Robinson Crusoe

The grassland after the snow was dyed white.

Patches of melted snow layers revealed the withered yellow wild grass below; the thin ice froze at night and melted in the morning.

After nighttime, it was extremely cold here, yet the day carried an indescribable dampness.

...

Maybe it was good luck, there was no wind this morning, and the sunlight was particularly bright, making it a rare good weather day.

Carrying a vine basket filled with rock salt, leading the Three-headed Saw-toothed Tiger across the river, just before leaving, Chen Zhou glanced back at the ridge.

As he predicted, Bi Kai had not awakened and did not appear on the ridge.

Imagining how someone who thought they’d definitely die would react upon waking to find their body healed, even their severed limb intact, Chen Zhou walked into the depths of the grasslands.

The morning was a rare time for foraging, especially in such warm weather.

A not particularly large herd of Mammoths appeared in the distance.

Several female Mammoths as the elders of the herd were pacing along the riverbank, the young Mammoths curiously observing this world at the start of winter.

For them, this was their first winter.

For most adult animals, the winter was not a new experience, as the seasons changed year after year on the Mammoth Grassland.

However, only those among them knew how cold this winter would be; with temperatures reaching minus sixty-five degrees, it was akin to a mass extinction, with over ninety percent of life unlikely to survive this winter, including the Mammoths.

Now, all living beings leisurely walking on the grasslands would later become corpses buried under the snow.

...

Gazing from afar at the long-haired Mammoths, Chen Zhou helplessly shook his head.

The Space-Time Administration Bureau’s indifference to life remained unchanged.

When they are able to freely control everything in a world, perhaps like players with cheats in a game, there is little left enjoyable aside from watching how the "pieces" within the game react.

...

Awooo~

Tiger Second saw several Cave Hyenas sneaking up on a camel in the distance and couldn’t help but let out an urgent roar.

Ever since they started following Chen Zhou, it’s the first time the three of them have been this hungry.

The young Saw-toothed Tigers were at the age of growing, unable to endure missing even one meal. If they weren’t aware that they couldn’t compete with the Cave Hyenas or hunt large prey themselves, they might have already ventured out to find food.

"Already anxious?"

Bending down to rub Tiger Second’s little head, Chen Zhou walked towards the other side where a small group of wild donkeys were overturning snow, searching for grass stems beneath.

The most important task now was to bring the rock salt back to the shelter, and complete the cold-resistant injection.

He didn’t want any complications by hunting large prey or clashing with other wild animals.

The plan was already set, just needed execution step by step.

However, unexpectedly for Chen Zhou, trouble often wasn’t sought; when someone is unlucky enough, it finds its way.

...

A solo camel likely encountered a beast’s attack, making its temperament much more alert than its kind.

Before the Cave Hyenas could fully form a circle, it stretched its long neck, started bellowing, and sprinted with its four long legs.

A colossal creature weighing up to 800 kilograms was certainly a remarkable sight when running; even though Cave Hyenas were considered renowned hunters in the prehistoric world, they dared not block this giant head-on.

However, they were not in a hurry—

While the winter grasslands lacked enough wildgrass for them to conceal themselves, the open view allowed ample visibility.

To deal with such a cunning prey, they just needed to tightly follow behind, as its panic was bound to accelerate energy depletion.

In terms of endurance, Cave Hyenas had an advantage. With their coordinated group effort and excellent stamina, they could exhaust the camel’s strength before launching their final attack.

Maintaining a steady speed, the Cave Hyenas hung behind the camel. Whenever the camel slightly slowed, they would quicken their pace to scare it further.

Thus, it equated to chasing the camel into a long-distance run on foot, and with extended duration, the camel would be the first to fall.

Though the Cave Hyenas’ hunting strategy was mature, they didn’t anticipate that this camel seemed quite mad—

Realizing it couldn’t escape the predators behind, it stretched out its steps, rushing directly towards a pair of Hairy Rhinoceroses by the river.

It was a mother-and-child pair, the young Hairy Rhinoceros was about two-thirds the size of the adult mother, possibly born this spring.

Among these colossal creatures, the smaller one was nearly a ton in weight, with the adult female weighing over three tons.

Similar to modern-day rhinoceroses, these furry, horned-head creatures had particularly irritable temperaments.

Aside from the size-dominating Mammoths that intimidated them into retreat, both innocuous herbivores and carnivores were forbidden from entering their territory.

The Cave Hyenas’ pursuit of the camel had actually caught the attention of the Hairy Rhinoceroses, but because they hadn’t breached their territory, and the Hairy Rhinoceroses were busy looking for food, they ignored them.

However, as the camel charged towards the Hairy Rhinoceroses, it finally drew the attention of the grassland’s overlord.

It snorted two puffs of white air, showing a hint of anger from its small eyes beneath the fur.
