Hearing the system's words, Qi Chen wasn't in a hurry and continued eating.
The consumption of energy during the advancement was enormous, and strong pangs of hunger would immediately surge up.
After feeling full, he checked his status with a peace of mind.
[Host: Qi Chen]
[Level: 2/10]
[Evolution: A tiger-striped egg with unknown significance]
[Talent: Armor of Thorns (When attacked, you can reflect 50% of damage back to the attacker)]
[Speed: 2/10]
[Defense: 2.2/10]
[Attack: 2/10]
[Enhancement Points: 0]
[Skill: Activated]
The skill option on his status was flashing.
Qi Chen tapped on it with his consciousness.
[Technique: None]
[Skill: Ambush 0/100 (After proficiency reaches 100, it can be upgraded to Shadow Ambush)]
[Hidden Skill: Activate at Level 3]
There's only one skill. Oh well, the skill given by the system should be very strong. The key is that it can even be upgraded!
It was very rare for low-level demon beasts to have skills.
For someone like Qi Chen, who had an active offensive skill that could be upgraded, it was even rarer.
Qi Chen was already satisfied with this.
Let's try out the new skill!
Qi Chen was in a fiery mood. His body moved, and he immediately went out to search for other demon beasts.
[Prompt: Four hundred meters ahead, one level-one demon beast has appeared!]
Initially, the scanning range of the map was only 300 meters. Now, it has become 400 meters. The higher my level, the wider the scanning range. Awesome!
Soon, he found the level-one demon beast.
It was a purplish-brown scorpion about half a meter in size.
Qi Chen was fearless as he charged forward.
"Ssss—!"
Scorpion flew into a rage out of humiliation.
An egg that had yet to hatch and was not even as big as his pincers dared to provoke it. It was truly tired of living.
The scorpion opened its pincers and grabbed it.
"Activate skill: Ambush!"
Qi Chen flashed peculiarly.
Several air blades appeared around his egg as he spun rapidly.
Swoosh—
Qi Chen flew past the scorpion, cutting open the scorpion's toughest shell with the air blades and landing firmly on the ground behind it.
The scorpion immediately fell to the ground and died.
[Beep! The host has killed the level-one demon beast, Violet Jade Scorpion, obtained 0.5 enhancement points!]
[Beep! Ambush proficiency +10!]
Although I can only perfectly unleash my Ambush skill with the advantage of my level, I like this.
Qi Chen smiled.
What he wanted was to wait patiently, hold back, keep calm, and attack at the crucial moment.
Other than that, he would never take any unnecessary risks.
There's no hurry to use the enhancement points. Let's find a few level-one demon beasts for practice.
A tiger-striped egg the size of an adult's palm began hunting demon beasts in the periphery of the forest.
[Prompt: Four hundred meters ahead, two level-one demon beasts have appeared!]
"Ambush!"
[Beep! The host has killed the level-one demon beast, Fragrant Pig, obtained 0.5 enhancement points!]
[Beep! Ambush proficiency +10!]
[Beep! The host has killed the level-one demon beast, Shadow Wasp, obtained 0.5 enhancement points!]
[Beep! Ambush proficiency +10!]
[Prompt: Four hundred meters ahead, one level-two demon beast has appeared!]
Level-two demon beast? Let's do it! My eggshell is tough anyway. I can run away even if I can't beat it!
[Beep! The host has killed the level-two demon beast, Demonic Horned Deer, obtained 1 enhancement point!]
…
In the afternoon.
Qi Chen walked out of the forest and entered a cave.
So far, I've killed one level-two demon beast. It's comparable to the other level-two demon beast but I can't defeat the other one.
He counted his accomplishments of the morning and did not feel disappointed.
If the other eggs encountered these demon beasts, they would probably be eaten. Not only could he run, he could also fight. This was already a very good accomplishment.
Moreover, during the battle, Qi Chen had used Ambush many times, so his skill proficiency had already increased greatly.
His harvest today was not bad. He killed four level-one demon beasts and obtained two enhancement points.
Including the 1 enhancement point obtained from killing a level-two demon beast of the same level, Qi Chen currently hac a total of 3 enhancement points.
He immediately opened his status to check his attributes.
[Speed: 2/10]
[Defense: 2.2/10]
[Attack: 2/10]
[Enhancement Points: 3]
[Skill: Activated]
"Speed +1, Attack +1, Defense +1!"
The status was refreshed immediately.
[Speed: 3/10]
[Defense: 3.2/10]
[Attack: 3/10]
[Enhancement Points: 0]
[Skill: Activated]
[Beep! The host's three-dimensional attributes have all reached three and above. You can advance to level three. Do you want to advance?]
"Advance!"
After the pain of advancing, what followed was hunger.
Fortunately, Qi Chen was prepared.
He jumped out of the cave and did not roll far before arriving at the grass pile where meat was placed.
He wolfed them down.
After feeling full, he opened his status again.
The skill option on the status was flashing once more.
Qi Chen opened up his skill option.
[Evolution: A tiger-striped egg with unknown significance]
[Technique: None]
[Skill 1: Ambush 90/100]
[Skill 2: Activate at Level 4]
[Hidden Skill: Enrage (All attributes increased by 50% within one minute of activation. Cooldown: 72 hours)]
When we get out later, let's upgrade Ambush into Shadow Ambush.
This hidden skill can temporarily increase all attributes by 50%. It's a life-saving skill, but its cooldown is 72 hours. I have to use it carefully.
The most important thing now is to level up as soon as possible. After reaching level four, I can activate the second skill.
Qi Chen charged into the forest again.
[Prompt: Five hundred meters ahead, one level-one demon beast has appeared!]
Five hundred meters! The scanning radius has increased by another hundred meters. Even if a level-four or level-five demon beast appears, I can escape safely in advance.
Soon, he found the level-one demon beast and easily killed it.
[Beep! The host has killed the level-one demon beast, Eight-Clawed Spider, Ambush proficiency +5!]
Where's my enhancement point?
After staring blankly for a while, Qi Chen finally realized that with his current level, it was no longer possible to obtain enhancement points just by killing a level-one demon beast .
The skill proficiency obtained was also pathetic.
What about killing level-two demon beasts?
Qi Chen immediately went to look for a level-two demon beast.
[Beep! The host has killed the level-two demon beast, Wind Wolf, obtained 0.5 enhancement points!]
[Beep! Ambush proficiency +10! The proficiency of Ambush has reached 100, it has been automatically upgraded to Shadow Ambush.]
"Killing a level-two demon beast gives me 0.5 enhancement points. With my current strength, I can still kill a level-two demon beast, although it will take some effort."
Qi Chen muttered to himself. Suddenly, he thought of another question.
If the current me consumes a treasure on the same level as that hundred-year-old ginseng, can I still get enhancement points?
[Prompt: Five hundred meters to the right, one level-two mutated beast has appeared!]
Oh my, isn't that the guy from yesterday? He's even gotten stronger.
Qi Chen rolled over to take a look and grinned.
"If it weren't for that big rat yesterday, we wouldn't have been hunted by that demon beast. Now, I'm the only one left alive. Sigh…"
The man squatted in front of the fire pit, his face full of sorrow.
However, seeing how the other party couldn't even squeeze out a single crocodile tear for a long time, Qi Chen couldn't bear to watch anymore.
In short, it was disgusting!
