The next morning, the expedition team gathered for breakfast. They cooked the rations they had brought with them. The meal was simple, but to Oliver, it tasted surprisingly good.
"Why do you look so happy today? Did something happen last night?" Zander glanced at Oliver, who had been smiling ever since breakfast.
"Hmm? No. This is just my usual face. What do you mean?" Oliver tilted his head while smiling. He was still excited about everything that had happened during last night.
"Forget it." Zander shook his head and continued eating.
After finishing breakfast, they held a brief meeting before packing up all of their tents. Later that day, they planned to venture deeper into the island and reach the Second Checkpoint.
Fortunately, several of the hunters had tamed Bovaryns and summoned them to carry the expedition's supplies, making transportation much easier.
