The beacon's light, although getting dimmer, is getting closer to the ground.
For Chen Zhou, the biggest difficulty now is time.
In less than two days, he must retrieve the bow and arrow, transfer Paul, reconnoiter enemy movements, and deal with any possible sudden situations during this period.
Paul's knee injury is manageable, but Tiger Third's spinal injury requires splint fixation, which is only a temporary measure and cannot achieve the immobilization of professional medical equipment. Handling must be very careful; otherwise, the injury may worsen. These tasks are very time-consuming.

While sprinting through the forest, planning the shortest route, Chen Zhou quickly reached the place where he left the Longbow.
Fortunately, it seems no challengers have passed by there; the Longbow and the quiver remained exactly as positioned.
