Chapter 24: Chicks
Ding: With perfect stirring, the medicinal liquid fully blended. Congratulations, your Nu Xiu'Er successfully crafted a Level 5 Limit-Breaking Potion, skill: Basic Witch Medicine, comprehended at sixty percent, experience consumed: 30.
Successfully obtained three top-level Level 5 Limit-Breaking Potions.
Unfortunately, after Xiu'Er took the three Limit-Breaking Potions, she still didn't break through the Level Cap. A five percent chance is still too low.
After tidying up, it was already dark outside.
With his own little cabin, Small Knife can log in and out at will.
So he logged out.
Although this game is mysterious and complex, Small Knife understands that improving himself in reality is the most important thing; he can't put the cart before the horse.
By this time, it was already daylight in reality.
He took out some high-quality Beast Meat to share with Ah Shan.
As a Mountain Dog, Ah Shan is powerful, but Small Knife still doesn't dare to give it too much Beast Meat containing the Heaven and Earth Essence Pill. It needs to be gradual.
Even so, Ah Shan quickly became hyperactive, sticking his tongue out, jumping up and down.
So the man and his dog rushed outside.
"Huff huff!" As time passed, Small Knife gasped for breath, sweating profusely, while Ah Shan was still energetic, running back and forth.
Small Knife waved his hand, and Ah Shan knowingly ran off into the distance. When he returned, he was carrying a silly spore.
If it were before, Small Knife would have been happy, but now he gave the spore to the villagers who came to visit and brought Small Knife many eggs and other supplies.
They were mostly elders; there weren't many middle-aged people left.
"Eggs?" Seeing the eggs, Small Knife had an idea.
He quickly ran out the front door, and luck was on his side. When he came back, he was carrying a nest full of chicks.
He had already experimented with his Personal Space, which could preserve freshness, but living creatures couldn't survive in it.
The reason is unknown, but if the time is short, the living creatures won't die immediately.
However, space is limited, Ganshan couldn't be brought into the game, and Xiu'Er couldn't be taken out. But it's okay to bring some chicks for Xiu'Er to play with. I wonder if in that world filled with Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, will the chicks change?
At least, for now, he hasn't found anyone in the Wugubu Tribe who raises animals.
As soon as he thought about it, he did it, lying on the bed with the chicks and putting on the Game Helmet.
He stored the chicks in the Personal Space and then entered the game.
Opening his eyes, he was already on the bed in his wooden house in the game. The first thing he did was take the chicks out.
The chicks staggered about as if they were drunk.
But they were all alive, hehe, and he could even check their attributes.
Chick: Challenge Level: 0.
Tip: This is an extremely weak little animal, it's very hard for it to survive on its own.
"Xiu'Er."
"Master Brother."
Xiu'Er came running over with her clothes in disarray.
Hm!
Those little details weren't important. Small Knife directly pointed at the chicks and said, "Didn't you want to raise small animals? I brought you some."
"(⊙o⊙) Wow!" Seeing the chicks, Xiu'Er's eyes sparkled.
There's no helping it, the chicks are very cute.
Afterward, Small Knife explained to Xiu'Er the precautions for raising chickens and that they needed to build a chicken coop for them.
He casually took out some coarse grain buns he'd gotten a few days earlier.
Then, Small Knife logged out.
Eating Beast Meat, exercising, absorbing all the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi contained in the Beast Meat through training, Small Knife could feel himself progressing bit by bit, as if there were no limits.
When night fell, Small Knife entered the game again.
Ding: Your Nu Xiu'Er's ability is Clear, Luminous, and Pure, her autonomy has increased, and through practice, she mastered the method of constructing a chicken coop, assigned to auxiliary Basic Skills.
"Impressive." Small Knife walked out and immediately discovered the chicken coop in the corner of the yard, surprisingly well-built.
The chicks were surrounding Xiu'Er, eating those torn grain buns.
The materials for building the chicken coop were naturally provided by Slutty Mouth, but NPCs hadn't been paid back yet.
"Xiu'Er, you can't go without proper sleep all night." Small Knife said sternly.
Seeing Xiu'Er obediently admit her mistake, Small Knife felt a great sense of accomplishment.
"Big Soldier, let's plant the field in the courtyard as chicken feed." Small Knife added.
Even without trying, Small Knife wouldn't let the chicks eat Beast Meat directly.
That would absolutely not be an experiment but murder.
The three of them began having breakfast together. After eating high-quality Beast Meat, Big Soldier routinely gained goodwill points. After reaching sixty, the progress slowed significantly. Such high-quality Beast Meat only increased goodwill by two points.
Hunting, time to hunt, it shouldn't be a problem for us to kill the Fierce Beasts ourselves.
"Big Soldier! Come with me."
Small Knife set out with Nu Big Soldier, who was already Level 9.
With Beast Meat, and the high-quality kind at that, Nu wasn't far from Level 10.
At the bottom of the slope, there was actually a muscle-bound child guarding it. Seeing Small Knife, he ran far away.
Small Knife glanced over and ignored it.
Nu doesn't have human rights, even if he's not yet Level 10, Small Knife still took him out.
Maybe because of the rat flood, there were fewer prey animals in the wild, forcing Small Knife to go further out.
Luckily, fewer didn't mean none.
He discovered a six-legged rabbit.
Bang!
Small Knife's attack methods left Nu Big Soldier dumbstruck.
Ding: Nu Big Soldier's friendliness increased: 5.
Indeed, showing off one's strength is another way to earn loyalty from subordinates.
Small Knife scattered Bone Powder.
The Bone Powder floated and transformed into bones, forming a special skeleton under Small Knife's control, thanks to the wondrous connection between the powder and bones.
If players saw it, they'd immediately scream, "A car?"
Indeed, it looked like a bone turtle, but with a flat back, more suited to carrying lots of prey.
Bang!
Once prey were discovered, they couldn't escape, suffering Small Knife's ranged attacks, achieving nearly a one hundred percent hunting success rate.
Big Soldier raced towards the prey.
Those not dead were speared by him.
"The prey simply aren't enough." Small Knife was slightly dissatisfied, but the bone turtle cart was already piled high, though all with beasts below Level 10, and it took half a day to do.
Of course, it was also because Small Knife hadn't ventured far and was circling around the outskirts of the tribe.
Oh?
Finally spotting a stronger Level 10 Beast with his binoculars.
It was grayish, a few sizes bigger than an ostrich, but unfortunately not an elite. It was a Level 10 Gray Feathered Wild Chicken.
A vigilant beast, it could fly, bound away very quickly, making it generally hard to hunt, with both its skills focused on escape.
Bang!
With a shot, nothing could withstand it.
Purposely holding back, the wild chicken was not slain.
Big Soldier immediately charged over, and before he could approach, a stone-tipped wooden spear was hurled, hitting it, followed by a frenzy of stabbing with another spear.
Ding: Your Nu Big Soldier killed a Gray Feathered Wild Chicken, gaining Experience: 10, Proficiency +10.
Ding: Congratulations, Big Soldier has learned the skill, Basic Spear (Beginner).
