"Um."
Actually, after receiving the panel, he had already tried to summon his system.
However, the system didn't respond, leaving him resigned to accept that his system was not intelligent and would require trial and error to understand how to use it.
So, he conducted various experiments to gain energy, such as eating spirit meat, spirit vegetables, and even getting close to his predecessor's cursed objects collection.
After all, his predecessor died because of the curse, but nothing worked.
"How foolish of me. This system is connected to the clone, so why have I only focused on the main body?"
Nearly all the novels he had read in his previous world focused on the main body and not the clone, where clones were merely used as ornaments.
This unconsciously caused him to overlook his own clone.
"Open the panel."
...
[Main body] Fuyuki Nao
[Vitality] 0.45 (+)
[Talent] External Incarnation (innate talent)
[Energy Value] 0.01
...
[Clone] Arowana
[Realm] Weak Mutant Species
[Talent] None
[Evolution Value] 1/30
Nao's current energy value had become 0.01. The evolution value of the dragon fish had also successfully accumulated 1 unit, still 29 units short of the 30-unit target.
At the same time, he noticed a plus sign behind his vitality stat. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to press the plus sign.
When he did, a change occurred in his body. A large amount of energy spread throughout his body, and at this moment, he felt every inch of his body strengthen.
This sensation was even more refreshing than when he fed his clone.
Looking back at the panel, his energy value had dropped from 0.01 to 0, while his vitality value increased from 0.45 to 0.46.
Don't underestimate this change—Nao would normally need at least a week of full training to achieve such a result. And this was already considered fast.
His predecessor's talent was very high, possibly among the top.
The reason why his vitality was 0.45 was because of this talent. The average vitality among his peers ranged from 0.2 to 0.25.
However, even with his high talent, it still required effort and hard work to increase his vitality. But now, all he needed to do was feed his clone, and this wasn't even the limit.
Thinking about this, Nao immediately dumped all his remaining frozen fish into the aquarium. Seeing the food, the arowana clone swiftly snatched up the frozen fish with agile movements.
A line of text appeared in front of him.
[Your arowana clone has successfully gained a small amount of evolution value from consuming a large amount of food...]
[Current evolution value accumulation progress: 2/30...]
[Your body has received an energy feedback of 0.01 points...]
Feeling the familiar sensation, Nao was pleased, but in the next second, he felt a bit uneasy.
"Isn't the digestion rate a bit too high? And also..."
According to his predecessor's memory, the frozen fish in the plastic bag should have been enough to feed the arowana for a week.
Yet even with that many fish, it only increased the evolution points by 2.
'How many fish will I need to meet the evolution point requirement?'
Looking at the empty plastic bag in front of him, he smiled wryly.
'Forget it, if the fish run out, I can just buy more.'
'Even if I can't feed it anymore, there's still the river, and if that doesn't work, there's always the ocean.'
Thinking this, his smile returned to normal. Glancing back at the empty plastic bag and the aquarium, another thought crossed his mind.
'Looks like I need to buy more food.'
With that in mind, he decided to go shopping.
