Forty years old, awakening attribute panel

Chapter 310 Extra Chapter 34

Survival has become a luxury in the ruins of the post-civilization era. Jiang Sheng and Liu Yier, the brothers, are like forgotten weeds, growing tenaciously in this barren land. They have no distinguished family background, no enviable talents, but only an indomitable will. In such a world, every step is treading on thin ice, and every decision may be a matter of life and death. They are cautious, fearing that if they accidentally anger the strong, they will be uprooted and completely disappear from this world.

Jiang Sheng, an 18-year-old boy, has a heart as vicissitudes as an 80-year-old man. Years have carved countless scars on him, and every setback is like a sharp blade, piercing deep into his soul. But even so, he never gave up hope, and the source of that hope is his sister's innocent smile. Her smile is like a ray of light in the darkness, illuminating his way forward and giving him a reason to continue living in despair.

However, just when he thought that such days would last forever, fate gave him a huge surprise. Jiang Sheng awakened! For him, it was like a dying person suddenly got a chance to be reborn, and the future road suddenly became bright. He sat down with Liu Yier, the two brothers, and seriously discussed the direction of the future. Their conversation was full of longing for the infinite possibilities of the future.

Jiang Sheng's ability made this surprise a little complicated. In the world of the awakeners, various abilities such as power, spirit, and control are intuitive and powerful, but Jiang Sheng's ability is to complete tasks and earn money. This ability is too abstract to be shown to others, let alone to prove it to his younger brother. Despite this, he did not show his ability to Liu Yier on the grounds that he was still exploring. After all, this is a secret that needs to be treated with caution, especially in this era of the survival of the fittest.

When Liu Yier left the room excitedly, Jiang Sheng was alone, called out his personal panel, and began to examine his attributes. Under the name column, the two characters "Jiang Sheng" stood out; in the wealth column, the number of 1933.8 Chinese yuan was not much, but it was enough for him to gain a foothold in this world; in the strength column, the value of 210kg was surprising, which was the result of his improved physical fitness after awakening; the two numbers in the spirit stone column meant that he had two precious spirit stones, which were extremely rare resources among awakeners; as for talents and equipment, it was still blank, waiting for him to discover and fill.

Jiang Sheng knows that awakening is just the beginning, and the real challenge is still ahead. He must learn how to use his abilities and how to survive in this dangerous world. All this requires him to be more cautious and take every step carefully. He is no longer the weed that is trampled by others. He wants to become a strong man in this wasteland and open up a new world for himself and his sister. Although the road ahead is unknown, he is ready to meet every challenge. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, he will go on unswervingly.

However, it was the experience of breaking his finger that made Jiang Sheng teach Liu Yier a profound lesson. In the toilet, Jiang Sheng severely taught Liu Yier a lesson, slapped him ten times in a row, then pressed his head hard and said to the reflection in the wash basin: "We have no parents, just like lonely ghosts. If we die one day, we won't even be able to find someone to collect our bodies. Your tears are worthless, no one will sympathize with you, but will only despise and laugh at your cowardice and incompetence!"

Jiang Sheng's words were like a cold whip, stinging Liu Yier's heart: "So, Liu Yier, you must remember, from now on, you must either become cruel or learn to be tolerant. If you don't have the courage to make an extreme choice, then even if you are hurt, you must swallow the pain. Even if it is unbearable, you must not show weakness in front of others. If you really can't bear it, then die outside and never come back!"

Although these words are cruel, they are full of a deep understanding of survival and a helpless compromise with reality. Behind them is the persistent pursuit and unremitting struggle for the word "alive". In this world, staying alive is more important than anything else. For Jiang Sheng and Liu Yier, their story has just begun.

Jiang Sheng stared at the data on his personal panel. His strength value jumped 10kg from the original value. This jump in numbers made him feel excited. He couldn't believe that he could have such a significant increase in strength just through extreme training. This not only proved that his efforts were not in vain, but also indicated unlimited potential in the future. He seemed to see a brand new road opening up before his eyes, a road to becoming a strong man.

Continuing to browse the panel, Jiang Sheng noticed the changes in the side mission 1, [Life will make you suffer for a while, and when you adapt, it will make you suffer for the rest of your life. Kill 200 bloodthirsty silver wolves. Time: 2 months. Reward: ??? Mission progress: 1/200]. Seeing this line of words, he couldn't help but be shocked. It turned out that today's encounter with the bloodthirsty silver wolf was not accidental, but part of the mission. This discovery surprised him and also made him curious. The logic behind the fusion program seemed not simple, and the reward mechanism was even more confusing.

However, what really surprised Jiang Sheng was that when he looked through the inventory, he found that in addition to the [Divine Power Experience Card x 20] he had always had, there was actually a new item. He could hardly believe his eyes, and blurted out "Fuck!" to express his shock. He originally thought that only under certain conditions could he get high-quality rewards, but he never thought that the rules of the fusion program were far more complicated than he imagined.

He clicked on the newly appeared item, and a book titled [Basic Fighting Techniques] appeared on the screen. The description below the title made him instantly understand that this was not just a book, but a treasure book that could teach him a series of fighting techniques such as kicking, hitting, throwing, and grappling. Moreover, the most exciting thing was that the learning effect of these skills was permanent, and once mastered, they would benefit from it for life. Without hesitation, Jiang Sheng chose to use it immediately.

The next second, his brain seemed to be flooded with information, and countless video clips poured in instantly. Footwork, punches, elbows, legs, knees, all the basic fighting techniques and their application methods were imprinted in his memory, and he was extremely skilled. At this moment, Jiang Sheng seemed to have experienced a high-intensity mental training, and all the skills were absorbed and digested by him, becoming a part of his body.
