Chapter 6 - One Year of Luck

Opening his backpack, the Immovable Radiant King Armor had appeared inside, currently emitting golden light. Zhuo Bufan took it out and wore it on his body. He shockingly discovered that this armor actually had an invisibility effect.

If not for the fact that the character panel had displayed that the armor's defensive capabilities were maxed out, it would have been difficult to believe that if one just looked using their eyes.

However, the armor's defensive effect could only last for half an hour. It was indeed not fantastic, but it should be enough to deal with the arena challenge in three days.

Furthermore, he had in possession the Ice Fire Magestaff. With one cold and one hot for offense, no one would be able to endure it.

Removing the armor, Zhuo Bufan still felt in his heart that his preparations were still insufficient. It was always good to be prepared to protect his little life.

However, it was raining heavily outside. In less than three seconds, your underwear would be soaked. If he fell sick, he might not even be able to handle a caterpillar when the time came.

"How long will this rain last?" Zhuo Bufan muttered in his heart.

[This storm will last for six hours. If the Lord intends to venture out, please ensure that you are well protected against the rain and cold.]

"Six hours later, the sun will rise. Why don't I just take a nap? It's raining outside, so sleeping in the house will be comfortable!"

Even though he said he would go to sleep, Zhuo Bufan did not just lie down and do nothing. He held onto a stick of sizzling roasted pork belly in one hand, and with the other, he idly scrolled through the human chat channel.

[After being drenched, I'm finally back!]

[My house collapsed!]

[I wonder if that hairy faced disciple of mine is doing well now…]

Who would have thought that rain could have such a huge impact on this place?

Scanning these chat messages, Zhuo Bufan searched for useful information from them.

It was best not to go out during the heavy rain. Firstly, it was easy to fall sick due to the change in temperature. Secondly, some sort of poisonous plants would quickly grow on rainy days. Once they are lightly touched, one would fall into a coma or die on the spot.

Moreover, some wild beasts would become irritable due to the weather. In short, it was the safest not to go out on rainy days.

After eating his fill, Zhuo Bufan felt that the most wonderful life was nothing more than this. He laid on the hammock and hummed a little tune, thinking that when the sun rose tomorrow, he would go out to find some resources and put up a comprehensive defense for himself from head to toe.

As long as his defense points were full, he would not be afraid of any critical hits!

Outside the house, the sound of rain crashed against the ground. Inside the house, snores could be heard.

By the time Zhuo Bufan woke up, the heavy rain had indeed stopped.

While hugging the pig trotter and taking bites, Zhuo Bufan checked the things inside his backpack, before leaving his simple house.

"I wonder if my luck is good today. It would be great if I could meet another six-legged beast!"

While he thought so in his heart, Zhuo Bufan felt that a person with his kind of nonsensical physique should not have such good luck. Perhaps the six-legged beast he encountered yesterday was already the sum of his luck this year.

Yesterday, he only circled around the periphery of the forest. Because he defeated the six-legged beast, Zhuo Bufan had a certain understanding of his own combat strength.

As long as it was not much larger than him, he could deal with it!

He took out the axe from his backpack for some security, before walking bravely into the forest!

Perhaps it was because of the rain that night, there were many mushrooms growing under the towering trees. There were some that were gray and some that were bright in color. It was obvious that they were not edible mushrooms.

But even if they were not edible mushrooms, there would always be a silver lining. The good ones could be eaten while the bad ones could be used for self-defense.

For a moment, Zhuo Bufan transformed into a little boy picking mushrooms.

However, these were just child's play. The most important thing was to encounter another Six-Legged Beast today and transform it into a Devil Piercing Spear. Only then would there be a chance of victory in the arena three days later.

However, after circling one-third of the forest, Zhuo Bufan did not even meet a chicken.

He leaned against a tree to rest and opened the Human Race Chat Channel to see if there were any interesting things that had happened.

[Why hasn't my hairy disciple with a loud mouth shown himself yet? Your Master has been waiting for you for a long time!]

[After chopping wood for half a day, I've built a small wooden house!]

[I've managed to make a new battle weapon. My combat strength has increased by 5%!]

[In the duel two days later, please show mercy and give the participants a good experience!]

Zhuo Bufan felt that the last person to speak was the most reasonable.

[Zhuo Bufan: That's right, that's right. I haven't participated before!]

He had thought that this time, it would be the same as before, that the channel would mercilessly spam messages and crowd him out.

However, someone finally noticed his speech.

[Young man, relax. There are many interesting things here. Don't think that a showdown represents the pinnacle.]

[The commenter above is right. Young budding sprouts like you need to be more daring and not be limited to one mu of land.]

Damn!

Zhuo Bufan was enlightened. Indeed, this place was far more complicated than he imagined. Other than being unfriendly to the newbies, everything was pretty good.

[Zhuo Bufan: Thank you beautiful sister for reminding me, I will definitely be careful!]

[However, young sprout, you have to be careful when you enter the arena. Everyone is strong, you have to ensure that you are not injured!]

[Young sprout, don't be anxious. You can watch the others fight first. Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated. We are all of the same race!]

Zhuo Bufan felt warmth in his heart. Indeed, there was still a lot of love between fellow clansmen.

It seemed like before he became stronger, he had to keep a low profile and quietly gain power. Then, he would amaze everyone and the beasts!

All the way until the sky turned dark, Zhuo Bufan's harvest was only a basket of mushrooms and some ordinary basic materials. Looks like the six-legged beast he encountered yesterday was indeed mostly attributed to his luck.

The Devil Piercing Spear was something that could only be chanced upon by luck.

He rushed back before the sky turned dark, with the thought that since he still had some wild boar meat left from yesterday, at least he didn't have to worry about food and drink.

In order to ensure the safety of his territory, Zhuo Bufan placed the poisonous mushrooms he picked around the small house. Yesterday night, the rain resulted in everyone not daring to go out, let alone having the wild beasts roam the area. But today was different.

It was possible that something would quietly approach him at night.

After putting away the poisonous mushrooms, Zhuo Bufan recalled that most small wild beasts were afraid of fire. In the past, when he watched outdoor survival documentaries, the protagonist would always put a torch on the camping ground to chase away the wild beasts that approached.

Zhuo Bufan hurriedly used the existing materials to make more than a dozen torches. Three torches formed a group, and they were piled up with rubble to form a simple bonfire, protecting all four sides of his house.

It had to be said that the appearance of a source of fire really marked the improvement of mankind. After a day of hard work, Zhuo Bufan lay on the hammock and continued to silently read the news on the Human Race Channel.

[Fresh mushroom soup, come to my house if you want some!]

[Leave a bowl for me. By the way, none of the big shots showed up today!]

[I only know that Big Boss Song is going to ascend to the Postnatal realm. He is the most powerful human.]

[The group arena this time is full of competitive energy, we all have to give it our all.]

[My combat ability is still at the bottom. I will definitely lose. I will cheer for you outside the arena!]

Through these two days of spying on the screen, Zhuo Bufan was very sure that this Song Chenxing should be the one with the strongest combat strength in the human race. He might have to compete with him in the group arena battles.

For a moment, his heart sank. It seemed that the arena challenge two days later would not be that easy!
