Chapter 144: Cliff Diving

Bell followed the stream. His speed was indeed much faster.

In less than half an hour, the distance he covered was even further than the two hours he walked in the forest.

He looked up again and saw that the sun was gradually sinking.

He was in the forest area. As the sun set, the light was not as abundant as before, and it became slightly darker.

Although the sun had not completely set, it was already starting to turn dark in the dense forest.

At the same time, the rainforest’s phenomenon was displayed for the first time.

Almost without any warning, it began to rain.

Wiping the rain from his face, Bell smiled and said, “The rain feels quite comfortable. It’s refreshing.”

In this hot weather, rain did not seem to be a bad thing.

At least, that was what Bell thought.

But as he continued forward, Bell could not laugh anymore.

Because not far ahead, the path actually ended in a cliff.

The small stream flowed down the cliff and formed a waterfall.

A lake was formed below.

Walking to the edge of the cliff, Bell looked down and found that he was nearly 30 meters away from the lake.

Then, Bell looked around.

He wanted to see if he could find some place to climb or use as a buffer.

Unfortunately, other than moss, there were only weeds on the steep cliff. It was impossible to use them as leverage.

Bell sat on the ground in disappointment.

“Everyone, I have bad news.

We now have two options.

If we want to continue, we can choose to take a detour.

This will undoubtedly waste a lot of our time, and we might even have to move through a large area of bushes.

Or choose to jump into the lake from here.”

“Both choices have their pros and cons.

Although it will take longer to detour, it is safer.

Jumping into the lake has a certain risk. If something goes wrong, we might end up staying here forever.”

Hearing Bell’s words, the audience was also chattering non-stop, each with their own opinions.

Bell estimated the distance to the lake from the cliff.

“If I remember correctly, the World High Diving Federation recommends people not to dive from 20 meters or higher. In competitions, men generally dive from a height of 23 to 28 meters.

Now, it seems like I am about 30 meters away from the lake.

The maximum distance will not cross 35 meters.

To be honest, I am a little afraid.

With my current physique, as long as I don’t directly hit the water, I should be able to withstand the impact.

The only problem is that I’m not sure how deep the lake is.”

“This is very important.

If it’s only about a meter deep, not to mention 30 meters tall, even if it’s from 10 meters, there will be an accident.”

After some thought, Bell stood up and looked around.

Then, he locked onto the target.

Bell picked up a rock and walked to the edge of the cliff, then let it fall freely toward the center of the lake.

Thump.

The rock hit the water, causing huge waves.

Bell leaned against the cliff and carefully observed the height of the waves.

“When you can’t judge the depth of the water, you can throw a stone and try to carefully observe the wave that the stone makes.

The higher the water splashes, the deeper the lake is.

Although this data can’t be precise, it can be relied on to a certain extent. ”

“Every step in the wilderness is dangerous. We can’t gamble on luck. This is a very stupid method.”

“You can’t trust your judgment and thoughts too much.

Because without equipment, human judgment is often wrong.

For example, don’t think that you can jump into the water once you confirm that the water is deep.

At the bottom of this lake in the wild, there are often some protruding stones.

This also means that when you jump into the water, you might hit these stones. I don’t need to say what the outcome will be in that situation.

At a height of 30 meters, the chances of survival will be less than 10%.”

The audience in the live-stream lost their confidence when they heard Bell. They did not know if Bell was planning to jump.

After all, he made this matter sound so dangerous. No one was willing to see Bell die.

But before they could speak, Bell stood up and walked to a nearby tree.

Everyone thought that Bell was planning to choose the first method.

However, the next second, Bell took out his dagger and began to cut the tree branches.

He chose a branch about two meters long and cut five branches before stopping.

Many audience members in the live-stream wanted to ask Bell what he was doing, but they did not get a response.

Bell only carried the five branches and walked back to the cliff.

Bell looked at the spot where he had thrown the stone and threw a tree branch towards the center.

The two-meter-long wooden stick sank into the water due to the inertia, and then floated up from the bottom of the lake.

It floated on the water and was washed away by the water.

Everyone was even more puzzled.

But this time, Bell explained to everyone.

“We have already thrown a stone to confirm the approximate depth of this lake, but we can’t be completely sure.

What we need to do now is to use these wooden sticks to examine the depth of the water.

These wooden sticks are two meters long. Since they were able to completely sink into the water, it means that this lake is at least this deep.

After a few more tries, we will be able to determine if the approximate depth is safe or not, and if there are any protruding objects.

We can only jump down after confirming that it is 100% safe. ”

After hearing Bell’s explanation, everyone understood the meaning of Bell’s actions.

“F*ck, so we can confirm the depth of the pool like this. I really learned something.”

“Host, you’re so smart. You can always think of a way with the materials around you.”

“Previous poster, do you think the name ‘King of the Wilderness’ is for nothing?”

While everyone was talking,

Bell had already thrown the remaining four wooden sticks towards the designated area.

Without exception, they all sank into the water and replayed the previous scene.

Bell heaved a sigh of relief.
