after the huge amount of mental stress caused by literally dying took a toll on mich's body so he decided to take a nap, the zombies in the throne room all left in search of food or just to wonder. so it was safe for mich to walk outside at night a bit more relaxed suddenly he herd a small commotion
there were three rock jumpers killing and eating a small group of luminous bugs mich not wanting to waste an opportunity to get free exp he charged at them quickly dealing a blow to the closet one on the back once what was a tough rock like exoskeleton to mich was now more like paper as he shredded the whole back part of the exoskeleton exposing a ping pulsing mass suddenly he gets hit in the cheek being thrown back a bit cought off guard
[-20hp 50/70Hp]
mich grabbed his needle and thew it With all his strength towards the furthest one,
soon as the needle made contact with the rock jumpers head it immediately got nailed to the wall
"damn... I've gotten way stronger"
said mich in his thought smugly while he was concentrating on the battle "the first one is dead the second one is on the floor wounded barely moving from where it was attacked but where's the third one...."
*fwoosh*
"clever bug
"
suddenly a faint sound was head from behind clearly the jumper was doing a surprise back attack with no weapon and his back turned mich might get seriously damaged so mich suddenly turned and used this momentum to use his tail and it's spiked club like bone on the end of it to attack
and it worked In a matter of seconds mich swung around and crushed the rock hoppers torso killing him
mich went back and tore the nail out of the wall and the exoskeleton of the rock hopper and went to finish of the last one once he got closer he realized that the third one was already dead by blood loss but on closer inspection you could see the injuries that were felt were slashing kind but here the insides were just bug soup in a exoskeleton bowl
[ +75 XP ]
"the skill called acid mouse does acid damage go figure " after all that mich went to check out what the hoppers were attacking
most of them were dead one was left a small creature resembling a small pill bug but it was squishy and everything apart from his head and legs were glowing a bright blue
looking at the bug more intensely
a message popped up

"hey buddy you alright" mich said that were actually just a bunch of squeaks
but from all the injuries and stress it had gone through it passed out, so mich brought it back to his home and made it a bed in a small pot by filling it with a bunch of rags then he and closed and locked the door the gentle blue glow same color of moonlight of the glow bug complimented the room and was much more relaxing than sleeping in the pitch black room
hey mich is a man but no matter what in a world where zombies exist maybe a monster exists only in the dark and it was freaking him out
back to the present mich was taking a risk here but he didn't care he might have been a mouse but he's a human by heart and humans are social creature and his system wasn't the chatty type so this way he might not go apeshit and get himself killed
mich took a couple of more trips collecting the bodies and placing them in a small burrow he made next to his house where he keeps the magic ingredients there but nothing fancy like clay walls or something
after this he went into the burrow and got a lot of heart root flowers {very common tree that on the end of summer sprout heart shaped flowers mixed has healing properties} " harvested this a month ago winter will come soon should prepare rations"
after that he grabbed the mouse bones and scraped out the marrow out of it and placing it back .
then he grabbed the mortar pestle and went back to his home
he grinded up the marrow and soaked the flowers in alcohol for 10 minutes
then burning the marrow in a airtight sealed pot to smoke the flowers after a while taking out the flowers once vibrant pink were now shriveled brown and dry mich grinded the Lage amount of flowers into a powder and added it to boiling water
pot and the water boiled until almost all the water was gone and a thick broth was left behind then soaking the rags in the liquid for a minute he took it out and finally made a healing potion bandage
[ congratulations you are the first one if your race to make a potion this is a huge step for all civilization your gifts are :+3 intelligence +5 free points +2 skill points ]
mich was so happy he almost forgot about the bug removing the rags that were used for makeshift bandages wrapping the injuries up with potion bandage after a day or two the bug that was at death's door came back and was very confused
