Chereads / Six Ring Wizard / Chapter 2 - Red Spotted Hunter

Chapter 2 - Red Spotted Hunter

Herage clearly felt that the moment he stepped into the forest, the surroundings became quiet. The animals in the forest noticed him as an intruder, and the chirping birds and insects went dormant. Herage stepped lightly, adjusted his breathing rate, and began to search for target prey in his field of vision. Soon, a gray hare appeared ahead. Herage bent his bow and nocked an arrow:

"Deep Blue, turn on the aiming assist."

"Calculating wind speed..."

A blue auxiliary line appeared in the field of vision. Herage adjusted his shooting angle and aimed at the hare. Fwoosh!

The hare's ears moved, but before he could jump to avoid it, he was shot through the head. Herage carefully observed the surroundings, confirmed that there was nothing abnormal, and then went to pick up the hare. He lifted it up and weighed it, and found that it weighed about five or six pounds. He pulled out the arrow, wiped it on the rabbit's fur, put it in the quiver and continued to use it.

"My control over my body is still too weak."

Herage felt that he still had insufficient control over his body and lacked stability when shooting arrows. A few minutes later, Herage found his mark again. There are two birds on the tree in the northeast, a pair of red finches, which were pecking at each other and preening their feathers. Herage held his breath and calmed down, silently drew his long bow, and the arrow aimed at the red-spotted finches showing affection on the tree with a cold light. Fwoosh! Killing two birds with one stone! The arrows passed through the heads of two red-spotted finches and formed candied haws. Red spotted finches are small in size and don't have much meat. There are so many wild animals here, it can be said that they are overrun, and naturally no one will mention animal protection in this world.

One afternoon passed, and Herage gained a lot. Three hares, seventeen red finches, and two fish. If it weren't for his body being unable to hold up and having no strength to draw the bow, he would still be able to continue hunting. In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the jungle, and Herage heard a strange beast roar deep in the forest. He immediately became aware of the danger, quickened his pace and left the forest.

Castle entrance. "You did this all?" The castle guard was stunned and couldn't believe it. "Of course, this is the red spot you want, pay for it!" Herage said proudly. The guard swallowed when he saw the clusters of red-spotted finches on Herage's neck, touched his pocket and said awkwardly: "I'll just buy five." "Okay." Herage didn't expect him to buy them all, so he would earn as much as he could. There is no salary for the servants in the castle, only rewards are given on certain holidays. Guards are naturally paid, but not much.

Herage returned to the castle with his prey, attracting the attention of many people along the way. "Where did you pick this kid up?" "It is said that he hunted it himself." "I would rather believe that the prey killed themselves by hitting the trees." "Old Henry, look what this is!" Herage showed off the hare and fish in his hands. "This..." Old Henry saw the arrow wounds on the prey at a glance, and he doubted his own eyes. "These rabbits and fish are given to you. Just think of them as the cost of borrowing your bow and arrows. Use them to replenish your body. It's better for the gods to see you later. "Herage handed over the hare. He Yu put it down and smiled. Old Henry did not refuse, but nodded silently, looking at the bow and arrow and recalling something. "Can I borrow this bow and arrow for a few more days?" Herage asked. Old Henry looked a little dazed, and said slightly slowly: "I gave it to you."

"Ah? Give it to me?" Herage knew that this longbow was Old Henry's favorite treasure, so he gave it to him?

Old Henry waved his hand: "You can take it, I can't pull it away anyway. It's always a good thing that someone can use it, rather than this old man." After Herage returned to his hut, he began skinning rabbits and had a bunch of red finches to deal with. By the time he finished his work, it was already dark. A rabbit and red sparrows were roasting on the fire. There was also a fish that he had put in a basin to be eaten in two days. There are very few seasonings in this world. Herage found some spicy weeds that are commonly used here in the forest, and took some salt from the salt shaker and put it on it and ate it. Rabbit takes a longer time to roast, and red sparrow meat doesn't cook very quickly. Herage picked up a red sparrow and took a bite. The taste was not as sour as expected, but was extra crispy. It seemed that the guard was right, the red sparrow was indeed very fragrant.

"Food that suits your physique has been detected. Consecutive consumption of one hundred and fifty red-spotted finches can increase your strength by 1 point."

Herage was shocked when he saw this prompt from the chip. What is the concept of a little strength? With a little strength, he transformed directly from a weakling into a strong man. This world is indeed not simple. In the previous life, there was no such food that could drastically change one's physique. There are official knights in the castle, and it is said that one official knight can deal with dozens of ordinary people at will. Baron Buck is a great knight and is said to have extraordinary power. Herage had never seen it with his own eyes and he had only traveled through time for a few days, so he always thought that these were just rumors that were getting more and more outrageous. But now, he's starting to have more ideas. After showing off the red-spotted finches and hares, Herage finally felt full for the first time. "It feels good to be full." He lay on the bed contentedly and soon fell into a deep sleep. Early the next morning, after Herage finished his work, he put on his longbow again and walked into the forest, this time the goal was clear, to hunt only red-spotted finches. But at the same time, he was also paying attention to the various plants in the forest, many of which were not seen in his previous life and he could not identify them. Every time he encountered a new plant, he would cut a little and put it on the back of his hand and smear it on it. If there was no difference after waiting for a while, he would lick it on his lips and let Deep Blue analyze the ingredients. After a few days, Herage actually discovered a plant that could increase physical fitness.

"Detecting a food that suits your physique, and it has been named red bracken. Eating ten kilograms in a row can increase your physique by 1 point."

In seven days, Herage ate two hundred red-spotted finches and fifteen pounds of red-leaf bracken.

"Calculating the current body status."

"Herage stats: Strength:8, Agility:6, Constitution: 8, Spirit:2"

After he ate one hundred and fifty red-spotted finches, eating more had no effect. It seemed that his body had become resistant. The red bracken was very unpalatable and extremely bitter, so Herage ate it with all his strength in order to become stronger.

He also found that after his strength and constitution each increased, his agility automatically increased by 1, but his spirit did not change at all. Herage clenched his fist, feeling the explosive power lurking in his body. During this time, Herage became somewhat famous because every time he went hunting, he always came back with a full harvest. He also got the title, Red Spot Hunter. Every time he comes back from the forest, he has a bunch of red finches hanging on his body, hence the name.

"Boy Herage, come out quickly!" Old Henry's long voice came from outside.
