Weird Survival: I can devour thousands of talents

Chapter 11 011: Small Profits

blah-

After splitting a soul badger with blue flames on its back, Ling Xiao tried to breathe in steadily to keep the tidal breathing method at a high level.

There were wounds of varying sizes on the left shoulder, right arm, and side of the waist.

In fact, none of them are serious, because the biggest threat of Soul Badgers is not their claws, but the impact that threatens the soul after each blue fire vibration.

[Bayi Caidao] also reminded us of this point. After all, he suffered a lot at the hands of this kind of monster.

Now, it’s Ling Xiao’s turn to experience it for himself.

The slightly twitching corners of the eyes and the dull pain in the brain are all external manifestations of the soul being attacked.

Of the seven soul badgers, five died in less than a minute of fierce fighting.

The injuries on Ling Xiao's body were just one of the costs.

A machete was simply not enough to handle the siege of seven monsters. In order to reverse the situation before it got worse, four [Flame Fists] were launched consecutively without a second's delay. The consequence of forcibly shortening the cooling time was that Ling Xiao now only had over 30 spiritual powers left.

The more punches you throw in a short period of time, the more extra spiritual energy you consume.

Only one last forced punch.

After that, you have to wait for a minute for the cooldown to reset before Ling Xiao's fist can ignite the fireworks again.

The two Soul Badgers confronting him now are one level 2 and one level 3.

They are in very good condition and look like they will definitely tear themselves apart.

The experience bar has already overflowed to the next level, but a breakthrough in battle will not restore Ling Xiao's status to full. If he continues to fight, there is a high possibility that he will die here!
There is nothing much to say, Ling Xiao made a feint and ran away!

He only had time to pick up one of the corpses on the ground. Before the two soul badgers, who were hunched over and growling, could react, the hateful two-legged beast had disappeared in the gray fog.

"Ow!"

Two figures, emitting ghostly blue light, chased after it, but lost track of the scent due to a pungent stench.

It turned out that Ling Xiao threw out a dirty and vicious rat's head in a hurry.

This dirty stuff is not only lethal to humans, but now it seems to be useful to mutants as well.

The culprit was then torn to pieces by the angry claws, but it was of no avail.

The "murderer" who killed five soul badgers took this opportunity to escape!

The panel is still very user-friendly. Once the body is dismembered, you can choose which part to release to avoid getting nothing.

I ran all the way, fortunately [Flame Fist] does not consume physical strength.

With the continuous replenishment of tidal breathing, Ling Xiao ran directly back to the safe zone in two and a half minutes. The last time he ran so far was a purely torturous physical test.

The warm bonfire soothed the aches and pains that emanated from deep within his soul.

Ling Xiao sat down without caring about his image, took out an energy drink and took a few gulps, which calmed his violently heaving chest.

bad news.

His suit was scratched and tattered, and he had suffered the most serious injuries so far.

The abilities of those bastards hurt his soul, causing his [Spirit] to show a negative mark of [-1].

good news.

I'm still alive and I've made a profit.

Make big money!

The first is the level aspect.

The five Soul Badgers killed, two of which were lv1 and three were lv2, directly helped Ling Xiao reach lv3 (8%).

While [Bayi Cleaver] has not yet broken through, [Xiao] has surprisingly reached the second place on the level list and is on the same level as the first place, becoming the only two level 3 explorers!
The second is talent.

Because they were in a hurry to escape, the results of the plundering were basically just watching while running.

It must be dealt with promptly, otherwise the talent for successful plundering will soon disappear!
The [Epic] quality cap of Heart of Taotie ensures that the success rate of these inferior talents never drops below 90%.

Two [Diet], two [Soul Resistance], and one [Acute Sense of Smell].

Level 3 adds one more slot for derived talents. Having suffered a lot, Ling Xiao immediately retained [Soul Resistance] and fed the other three to the Heart of Taotie.

The latter still wasn't full and still looked like a bottomless pit.

Finally, the progress of the hidden mission!
【Bloody Moment (Initial Mission Completed)】

[Killed any target [11/10], congratulations on completing the initial mission! ]

[Permanent Talent [Bloodlust] has been granted, and the advanced quest has begun. Good luck to the hunters just starting out!] Ling Xiao's current attribute panel is completely different from when he first crossed over.

With his unremitting efforts and willingness to take risks, I'm afraid even the configuration of the [Bayi Cleaver] is not as luxurious as his.

[Level 3 (8%): Owl]

[Talent: Gluttonous Heart [Birthplace] (Nocturnal Animal, Environmental Adaptation, Soul Resistance), Bloodthirst]

[Attribute: Free attribute points (1)]

【肉体[力量4/敏捷4/体质5]——体力值[68/130]】

【魂灵[灵性4/感知4/精神4-1]——灵力值[36/110]】

[Skills: Flame Fist, Tidal Breathing, Eye of Appraisal]

[Equipment: Reliable machete, self-filled map, accurate watch]

Fortunately, after enduring several waves of soul shock, although the mental attributes were weakened, it was only temporary and could be recovered with time. It was not a permanent damage.

Risks and opportunities coexist.

Overall, this wave is not a loss!
Ling Xiao decomposed the four monsters in his backpack together. He was not looking forward to it. It would be fine if the materials dropped normally. He did not need any unexpected surprises to make up for any trauma.

[Analysis in progress…]

【获得：异变生物（毛皮*5、肉块*2、碎骨*4、血液*3）、异变源核碎片*3、不祥铜币*5】

……

While waiting for decomposition, Ling Xiao opened the channel and dived.

Let’s see what tricks his brothers can come up with while he is busy with his career.

"Who in my family understands? I was just about to go out when there was movement outside. Can I still explore? I don't want to stay here and wait. It's completely..."

"What the hell!? Look, [Owl] is also level three!"

"Is this true? Let me see, how long has it been? It's really true! Do you have to be so fierce!?"

"This guy's kill value has skyrocketed! Did he slaughter the monster's lair?!"

"Oh dear... I'm a little scared... Could it be that the boss was once a psychopathic murderer? Can he fully unleash his true nature here and feel completely at ease?"

"I've taken a screenshot and am sending it to Boss Xiao."

"Dude, stop it, this is a real new account!"

……

Stupid "net" friends are really stupid. As long as they can get together and talk nonsense, even the atmosphere of the weird world can be diluted.

In both the level list and the killing list, he ranked second, and was not much different from [Bayi Cleaver]. The two of them even left the third place far behind.

However, Ling Xiao did not take advantage of the fact that the gap was very close and take the risk to try to be the first.

Weighing the pros and cons, so-called false reputation is far less important than one's life.

Not to mention that the rewards for the top ten are the same, even if there are differences, he has to carefully consider whether it is worth it.

After a fierce battle, his physical injuries were slowly recovering under the effect of tidal breathing, but his weakened soul was nowhere to be seen.

Get some sleep?
Ling Xiao decided to try his luck in the trading area.

After the list appeared, many survivors who were already wavering began to exercise their subjective initiative, and the number of explorers doubled to more than two hundred.

With more people, "setting up stalls" and "shopping" become more lively, and the goods there may be what he needs.

After a while, the thoughts stopped.

He actually found a treasure related to the soul.

[Cool Spring Water (Normal): Drinking it will speed up your spiritual power recovery, lasting for 30 minutes.]

There aren't many products available now, and Ling Xiao only found this one after browsing through the entire page. In order to prevent it from being snatched away by others, he directly initiated a transaction application.

Because the seller has set it up, you have to "verify your capital" first. Only after your deposit reaches the marked "50 ominous copper coins" can you chat with him privately to discuss bargaining or bartering.

Originally, Ling Xiao was really short of money after two consecutive expenditures. Fortunately, the Soul Badger he caught before running away was level 2, which barely met the requirement.

But after entering the store, his expression suddenly became strange.

Because the owner of this store is the same person who sold socks before...
