Chereads / Lords of the North / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 Gift

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 Gift

The thought came to an end, and the notes in front of him were particularly clear.

[You made an attempt, and the veil was gently lifted. As for whether this answer is a gift or a curse, please follow your will. ]

Ken has no entity now, and opening his eyes is to look into his spiritual world.

Language cannot describe that scene, but as long as the consciousness is reached, the notes will materialize it.

[Character: Ken Bouvier]

[Identity: Wanderer]

[Level: D]

The original restless colorful light has completely merged with himself.

Ken thought.

The so-called "attempt" should be to use the green light spot to activate this process.

He wandered in the spiritual world, and every inch of his body could be felt.

The body and soul are completely in harmony.

All the notes he had seen before, [History] [Characters] [Items], etc., can also be called up here for viewing.

They are classified into categories, and there is endless darkness behind them.

Only the part he knows is lit.

Ken tried to trace the energy that had just entered his body.

His consciousness was directed to the center, and his health bar emerged. He could see that his body was slowly recovering. In addition, there were two most eye-catching attributes.

[Qualification: 1.7 Wisdom: 2.0]

Ken had a certain enlightenment in his mind.

[Qualification] is a value obtained by combining physical fitness, reaction speed, riding a mount, and proficiency in various single-handed and double-handed weapons.

Similarly, [Wisdom] is not only the toughness of the soul...

Magic affinity, business talent, experience, and agility are also included.

Those green energies are experience points, stored in the spiritual world, and can be consumed to heal the body or improve certain attributes.

He wanted to reach out and touch it.

Although there was no entity, the light spots actually scattered and fled, illuminating an empty space in the distance. Ken felt vaguely that there were shadows there, but when he looked carefully, they were all phantoms.

When he noticed this, the note flashed again.

[Mission: Recruitment]

[Progress: 0/5]

[Description: Everyone knows that you can't be alone in the wilderness. Find someone willing to follow you as soon as possible. ]

Ken made some other attempts, and then imagined opening his eyes from sleep.

He instantly felt the weight, and his body remained tilted - the spiritual world was independent of time, and reality was almost still.

Hmm, what is this?

Ken imagined that the experience points were imported into his pupils, and the world in his eyes changed instantly.

His eyes went straight through the soil.

The overall filter is black and white...

The undead and venomous snakes and insects hiding in the snow are all emitting red, while the herbs and wild fruits are all glowing blue.

It's a wonderful experience.

The gray-white world has only outlines, and the range is also limited, about a radius of ten steps.

But important things will be highlighted.

Hiss, it hurts!

Ken covered his head, and the dim cave was still in front of him. When he wanted to expand the gray vision again, he found that the few remaining experience points had been used up.

Well, I'll talk about it next time.

Ken turned his attention back to the present.

He knocked the corpse of the undead with his scabbard.

After the blue flame disappeared, they were as brittle as ice chips.

[Bone meal x3]

These pastes mixed with rotten meat are still valuable. They can be processed into medicine or directly used as magic consumables.

Ken put them away and stood up to expand the gap.

He struggled to climb out of the pile of dirt, stretched his limbs wantonly, and felt that the afternoon breeze was so pleasant.

Looking back at the hillside.

After the avalanche, some brown ground was exposed, and he put all the [grass fruit] and [Qiang tree root] he saw just now into his pocket.

There are more than one undead buried in the ruins.

Ken didn't let them go.

He was full of energy now, and started digging with the scabbard as a tool.

Not long after, a dead creature was attracted by the vitality, and its withered arm broke out of the ground, scratching his ankle painfully.

The skull head appeared soon after, with blue fire flickering in its eye sockets, as if it had just woken up.

Ken didn't wait foolishly, holding the steel sword tightly with both hands and piercing it from the top of the head, the movement was smooth and natural.

After the experience points were washed, he was no longer the fledgling wanderer.

Oh, a little bit of feel.

The experience points obtained were not much, and could not cause any qualitative changes. It seems that the previous wave of improvement was largely due to the completion of the task.

As for recruiting followers, you have to find a village or camp.

It seems that it can't be done in a short time, so let's wait until the [Task: Collect Food] is over.

He looked up to find the sun. It would take a day to return to Santon Kaya, and he only had one day left to hunt.

He didn't think about it anymore.

He took advantage of the sunlight to continue searching for the undead.

They are very weak now. Mercenaries often do this kind of commission, but if there is no special means, they can only dig the soil and search blindly.

Ken doesn't need to take a chance.

He used the experience points as an investment. After the gray vision was unfolded, the undead hidden in the shallow layer of the ground was exposed.

The steel sword continued to penetrate the skull.

[Total kills: Undead Skeletons x4]

He paused slightly.

[Swordsmanship] and [Physical Strength] both increased slightly, and the experience points met the requirements for upgrading. After consumption, the attributes were improved again.

[Qualification: 1.8].

I am getting stronger, this road is feasible!

But the number of undead is small, there is no need to dig deeper, and the speed of experience inflow is slowing down.

He began to get impatient, and the slope was full of pits, like road signs.

Where, I want to dig down!

He didn't realize that he had fallen into some kind of madness. Sometimes he would even dig the ground with his hands and feet. In the cracks of his nails, there were only snow seeds and dirt.

Hey, something seems wrong.

Ken seemed crazy. He continued to squeeze out the remaining experience and scanned back and forth. His pupils became a little scarlet, and his expression became more and more excited!

Suddenly, he raised his sword and ran towards the slope. The gray vision showed that there was a "big guy" here.

[Hostile: Dead Badger x1]

[Level: E]

Its body buried in the soil was as strong as a calf.

It is estimated that it has mutated for several years and has not been killed yet.

Ken threw himself into the snow and quickly dug out half of the beast-shaped head. The hair rubbed against the scabbard like a hard brush.

He raised the steel sword, hesitated slightly, and then stabbed it into the gray eyeball fiercely, passing through several layers of soft and hard tissues. The touch was very strange.

Along with the stirring, the stench came, but the experience points were still nowhere to be found.

[The weaknesses of the dead creatures are not the same, so you have to look carefully. ]

Ken panted with exhaustion.

His legs and feet were weak now. Even if he was stupid, he could feel that things were getting out of control.

[Status: 46% infected by the hunter]

He suppressed his bloodthirsty impulse and briefly regained his sanity before pulling his health bar—less than half of his health bar!

[The hunter not only infects corpses, but also slowly corrodes living beings. ]

Ken didn't have time to think about it, and he immediately mobilized his experience points.

But he first improved the attributes, and then squandered them without restraint. The current storage was not enough to heal the body.

The infection of the hunter continued to worsen, and the crisis was not resolved.

Ken hid the notes and turned his target to this [Dead Badger], with the hilt of the sword trembling slightly.

The undead creature, which was as silent as a corpse just now, suddenly burst out with energy, and blue flames rushed out from the broken head, climbing the sword blade and circling upward like a ghost.

Swish!

Ken hurriedly drew out the steel sword and retreated.

The deformed claw brushed across his neck and instantly broke the epidermis.

Ken lowered his center of gravity, and felt his hair stand on end. He was only a hair's breadth away from death.

The monster in front of him had purple muscles, black air wrapped around his body, and blue flames flowed from his damaged eye sockets like magma.

If another mercenary were here, he would not try to escape, but would cover his wounds and scream a few times...

Ken was different. Even if he escaped, he could not escape the [Hunting Infection] state.

He was particularly calm, or he had no way out. A determination flashed in his eyes - today, one of him and it must sleep forever.

The giant claws were still waving wildly.

Snow foam burst out, and the frozen soil of the lower body of the undead badger had cracked.

Ken chopped out the steel sword to test the strength. His increased strength could slightly suppress the opponent.

The moment he came to this conclusion...

He rushed out!
