Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 17 Bear Grylls and Democracy have said that you should never drink raw water in the wild

"Hey! The one with the axe!"

Cheng, who had solved the problem of urgent urination, suddenly spoke up, causing the two college students who had been keeping their distance to tremble slightly.

After successfully witnessing the entire process of Cheng Tian killing the Red Devil, Yizier and the others were astonished at the combat power of Cheng Tian, ​​who was obviously a novice, and also felt a little afraid.

This was different from the previous fight against zombies. The decisiveness and brutality that Cheng Tian showed when fighting the Red Devil made them naturally think that Cheng Tian in reality might not be a good person.

What kind of good person can beat the devil into a human stick?!

But if they were asked to break away from Cheng Tian and advance on their own... they would be even more afraid. They would probably die without knowing how they died.

It's hard to teach people how to do things, but it takes time to teach them. Having experienced the dangers of the Demon Village firsthand, they have long given up the idea of ​​being heroes. Now they just want to try to curry favor with others.

Since Cheng Tian didn't move, the two of them simply rested ten meters away from Cheng Tian.

"Brother! You say!"

Feeling that he was far inferior to Cheng Tian, ​​Yi'er stood at attention on the spot.

"Is there anything to eat?"

"Let's go find it!"

Faced with Cheng Tian's sudden begging behavior, Yi Er was still scratching his head when the stupid college student with blood scabs all over his body directly put his arms around his roommate's neck and took the job without asking why.

The Blood Crust Idiot, who had already done something stupid once, was now thinking clearer than ever before.

He has completely realized that Yizier at least has some fighting power and is qualified to get some assists from Cheng Tian, ​​while he is just a useless person who is a drag, and the other party has no reason to help him at all.

If you want to get close to someone, you must try your best to show your value other than your fighting ability, such as running errands, moving things, and handling some miscellaneous things for the person in charge.

Cheng Tian’s request at this moment is a good opportunity to demonstrate his value.

Neither of them had any food, but Bloodscab Idiot remembered that among the other dead players, there were indeed a few people carrying satchels and briefcases, so there was a high chance of finding food and drink inside.

In just one hour, his perspective had changed drastically. As long as he could hold on to the thigh and survive, touching the corpse would be a small problem.

If you really can't find it, you can only try to search the surrounding tombstones to see if anyone has left tributes that you can steal... I don't know whether the medieval worldview allows food to be included in tributes.

"Wait a moment."

Just as Xuejia was about to return with Yi'er, Cheng Tian suddenly called them. When Xuejia turned around, he saw a baseball bat flying in a parabola and falling not far in front of him.

"Take it, at least for self-defense."

Cheng Tian said as he threw the white baseball bat to the bloody scab.

"Okay big brother!"

Xuejia, who had just expressed his opinion and received an immediate response, was overjoyed.

Yizier patted the blood-scab's shoulder, then followed him back the same way.

There is a big essential difference between killing zombies and searching human corpses. At least the two college students cannot be completely free of psychological fluctuations.

Fortunately, the bags, ignored by the zombies, did contain some food, especially the girl's shoulder bag, which was filled with several high-calorie snacks like gummy fruit, dried fruit, and nuts. Cheng Tian, ​​content to use the two young men as errand boys, wasn't idle either. He opened the bronze treasure chest that had been serving as a stool.

Of course there is no vampire magician lurking in here, it is just an ordinary treasure chest.

With the opening of the treasure chest, Cheng Tian's wealth column, which originally had no coins, was directly increased by 1500 Tianxuan coins. It was obvious that this was the universal currency of the space, but its purchasing power was unknown.

The second dropped item was the red devil's wings that were originally scattered not far away and were cut off by Cheng Tian. It fell out in the form of green excellent-level processable materials, and Cheng Tian also stuffed it into the empty space in the inventory.

Then came the point.

The third treasure chest reward is 1 free skill point.

In addition to completing the main quest with high completion and high evaluation, you can also get free skill points by killing powerful monsters, completing hidden side quests, obtaining special treasures, etc.

However, Cheng Tian's attitude towards skill points is obviously more cautious. Of course, the more important thing is that this is the only skill he currently has that can be added points. Just looking at the description, it is not the type that can cause a qualitative change with just one skill point.

As the saying goes, riding a bicycle to a bar, you should save where you can and spend where you can. After all the attribute points and skill stones have been used, Cheng Tian will keep the free skill points for now and distribute them as needed later.

While the two young men went to find something to eat, Cheng Tian was not completely idle either.

Not far from the exit of the cemetery, a narrow river blocked the way to the Demon King's Castle. Above the river, one could see a circular moving platform that was obviously driven by some special force, like a drifting iceberg.

The river water is very clear and the current is not fast, but it is definitely deep enough to completely submerge a person.

After just a few glances at the river, Cheng Tian uninstalled his "Vampire Hunter" template without hesitation.

The reason lies in the template's built-in skill called "Dissolve in Water".

[Dissolve in Water: Template skill, negative passive skill. If your entire body is submerged in water higher than your height, you will be instantly declared dead.]

Since Cheng Tian’s vampire hunter template is the “original type”, he not only inherits Simon’s advantages, but also his disadvantages.

With this physique, I think some people would believe you if you said Simon was a vampire...

The ability to dodge attacks is a bit disappointing in practical application, as it has very high requirements for terrain. At least it is a gain effect in name, but the ability to dissolve in water is a pure negative passive effect without a trace of impurities.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Cheng Tian did not want to gamble that he could reach the other side of the river 100% safely and without any accidents through the circular mobile platform, so he simply removed the template first.

If you like to gamble, you have to choose the right occasion, right?

Anyway, he is still wearing the strawberry macho underwear, and it only takes 15 minutes to reload the template, so there is no hesitation in uninstalling it.

When Cheng Tian returned to his original position, he had already filled his knight's armor and helmet with clear river water.

However, even though he was extremely thirsty, he was not in a hurry. Cheng Tian first picked up some dead branches and grass under the dead trees around him, wrapped the embers of the fireball that the Red Devil sprayed on the ground before his death in the dead grass, held it in his palm and blew air on it, and soon ignited the dead grass, directly starting a bonfire.

Then he took some effort to move a few broken tombstones to use as a stove, placed them on the fire, and then put the helmet filled with river water on it to boil.

Bear Grylls and Democracy have taught our children more than once that, if possible, water in the wild must be boiled before drinking.

The consequence of drinking raw water in the wild without any trouble is likely to be severe dehydration... or even rectal prolapse.
