Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

Chapter 37 Familiar Feeling

Villa No. 198, martial arts training hall on the second floor.

Yang Wu sat cross-legged on the ground and took out the pure and flawless bitter root from the alloy box placed in front of him.

This bitter root is the spirit of plants and trees. Naturally, wind and rain cannot approach it. It grows out of the mud but remains unstained. Even if Yang Wu roughly pulls it out from the crevice of the rock, it does not retain a trace of dirt.

It was mentioned in the simulation that the way to take the bitter root is to swallow it directly. Yang Wu tried to take a bite from its root. It was crispy, sweet, fragrant and delicious.

After a few big mouthfuls, he swallowed the whole bitter root.

"Well……"

In the throat, a bitter taste was rolling and stirring, and then surged up. The bitter and astringent taste quickly reached every part of the body through the mouth.

Yang Wu was shocked involuntarily and almost jumped up from the ground.

The bitterness on the taste buds is really tingling.

Fortunately, after a burst of intense bitterness, the suffocating bitterness in my mouth suddenly disappeared.

Then, a sweet taste slowly returned to his mouth, and then this sweetness began to spread throughout his body.

"This feels... really good!"

Yang Wu's face twisted and changed for a while, and after a moment, he uttered these words slowly.

It is a very special feeling. After enduring the unbearable bitterness, you finally experience the sweet taste that lasts forever.

It's like the comfort and relaxation of everything reviving and flowers blooming after the ravages of a severe winter.

Then, the familiar feeling came back.

A cool and comfortable feeling began to spread throughout his body, even making his soul tremble.

The abundant vital energy of Kuxuangen instantly penetrated into every corner of his body, triggering amazing changes in his bones, tendons, and muscle cells.

Half an hour later, the transformation was complete.

"boom!"

His physical fitness was sublimated again. Yang Wu just casually punched out, causing the surrounding air to explode.

"Just a casual punch was as powerful as the full-strength burst from the past."

"My current physical fitness is at least at the middle level of a war god, and it might even be at the high level of a war god!"

Yang Wu could confirm that he was at least a mid-level war god just by relying on a vague feeling, but the exact strength of his punch still needed to be tested by instruments.

Looking at the punching force tester placed in the corner, Yang Wu walked over and punched the boxing target with all his strength.

"193542 kg."

The fist shook violently, and the answer Yang Wu wanted suddenly appeared clearly on the display screen of the testing machine.

Intermediate war god level!
His physical fitness has reached the middle war god level, and he has mastered the third level of the World-Destroying Spear Technique. With the burst of four times the force technique, he can punch with a force of 770,000 kilograms.

"But this gun..."

Coming to the weapons rack, Yang Wu picked up the Pojun spear and prepared to practice his spear skills to liven things up, but he found that the weight of the spear was a little off and had become lighter.

That's right, with the rapid improvement in physical fitness, weapons and equipment can no longer keep up. This scene is so similar to the previous one.

Yang Wu carefully examined the Pojun spear that had accompanied him in battles for a month.

Finally, it was retired.

Although I had realized this would happen, I didn't expect that before the end of this month, this Pojun spear would actually become a collectible.

"Oh, let's buy it again!" After entering the audio-visual room, Yang Wu entered the URL, passed the fingerprint verification, and successfully logged into the Extreme House.

"Hmm? Any mail?"

As soon as I entered the website, there was a message at the top of the homepage that kept reminding me: "You have an unread email!"

Yang Wu's finger passed over the button and immediately opened the email. The title was exactly - "Notice from the Palace of the God of War".

"Huh, what a coincidence?"

Yang Wu was a little surprised. How long had it been since he made the breakthrough? Less than ten minutes, maybe? How could it be known so quickly?

I quickly scrolled to the end of the screen to see the time the email was received.

October 2056, 8!
Well, I was overthinking it!
The communication watch that Yang Wu is wearing now was purchased by Han Xiu last month.

Yang Wu had known for a long time that the communication watch had a backdoor, so he only activated the communication function and the balance change notification function.

As for the other functions, it’s not that he doesn’t need them, but he is planning to replace his communication watch and feels there is no need to activate them at all.

Yang Wu opened the email and read it carefully.

Generally speaking, as long as you reach the level of senior general, you will be informed of the news of the Palace of the God of War.

Of course, if one is a high-level general with limited potential and can never reach the level of a god of war in his lifetime, then it is difficult for him to know these things, and there is no need to know them.

After reading the email, Yang Wu returned to the homepage of the Extreme Home website, clicked to enter the online mall, selected the weapon list page, and clicked on the cold weapon category again to enter.

Soon, he found the Pojun Spear series.

Pojun Spear Series, A6 Model - Price: 2000 million Chinese Yuan (full price), 1000 million Chinese Yuan (half price, requirement: one-star contribution points).

With Yang Wu's mid-level war god-level physical fitness, he would need at least a 9th-series Broken Army Spear. He directly scrolled to the end of the weapon list.

Pojun Spear Series, A9 Model - Price: 30 billion Chinese Yuan (full price), 15 billion Chinese Yuan (half price, requirement: three-star contribution points).

Pojun Spear Series, SS Level - Price: 300 billion Chinese Yuan (full price), 150 billion Chinese Yuan (half price, requirement: four-star contribution points).

"Depend on……"

Yang Wu looked at his balance, which was just over 200 million, probably only enough to buy decorations for S-class weapons.

"Let me see the price of this combat uniform so I can give up my desire sooner."

Combat uniforms, life-saving items, are naturally the most expensive equipment on a warrior.

The combat uniform that Yang Wu was wearing, including arm guards, combat boots, etc., was only a D6 series combat uniform and could only withstand the bites of most high-level beast general-level monsters.

In order to withstand the tearing attacks of most high-level lord-level monsters, at least a D9 series combat suit is required.

Combat Uniform Series, D9 Series - Price: 120 billion Chinese Yuan (full price), 60 billion Chinese Yuan (half price, requirement: three-star contribution points).

Yang Wu assessed his own strength. If he were to fight against a high-level lord-level monster, the safest thing to do would actually be to buy a set of SS-level combat uniforms.

After all, the 9th series (S-level) combat uniform can only withstand the bites of most S-level high-level lords, but this is not % reliable.

Ares Palace.

Yang Wu thought of the War God Palace. The best price for buying weapons in the War God Palace was even lower than half the price at the Extreme House.

A full set of S-class combat uniforms would cost the martial arts hall 120 billion yuan at full price, and 60 billion yuan at half price, while the best price offered by the War God Palace was only 40 billion Chinese yuan.

However, even if the price were to drop further, it would not change the fact that he could not afford it.
