Raft for All: I'm guaranteed to get a golden affix when I upgrade!

Logically speaking, this thing is all flesh.

Even raw meat can be exchanged for a large amount of basic resources when listed on the trading channel.

There are plenty of people wanting to join the regional channels.

But this thing is just too big.

If it's salvaged, how do we dismember it? We don't have the proper tools.

If you bring it up, it will definitely turn the clean and dry deck into a bloody mess and stink.

More importantly...

Xiao had heard the old director gossip about him when he was at the welfare home.

Sharks do not have urinary organs; they excrete urea entirely through skin penetration.

The texture of the meat.

It's sour and tough; one bite and you'll feel nauseous for three days.

For Xiao Zheng, who now eats wild grouper and lobsters at will.

This thing is pure junk that takes up space.

Even dogs wouldn't eat it.

Why bother with all that effort?

We decided to abandon the salvage operation.

He turned around and walked back to the barbecue grill.

Looking at the overlord, who was completely dead and floating in the blood.

Xiao Zheng brought up the system panel.

Turn on the camera.

Point the camera at the sea.

A close-up photo of a great white shark with crimson blood, a crossbow bolt stuck in its eye, and its eyes rolled back has been generated.

Find the private chat list.

Click on Lin Xiaoya's profile picture.

I sent them this visually striking photo.

He then typed on the virtual keyboard with one hand.

A text message was sent.

"Just killed it, is it for dinner tonight?"

Another sea area.

Lin Xiaoya was tossing plastic hooks under the blazing sun.

Luckily, I managed to hook up a plank, but I was exhausted and was just about to have a drink of water to rest.

"drop."

A private chat notification sounded for someone who is paying special attention to you.

Senior Xiao Zheng sent a message!

She quickly dropped the hook and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Full of anticipation, I lit the light curtain.

A high-resolution photo popped up instantly.

It occupied the entire field of vision.

The jagged, jagged edges, the enormous, unseeing eyes, and the blood staining the seawater.

The contrast in body size is extremely imposing.

Lin Xiaoya was so frightened that she sat down on the wooden board.

My heart almost jumped out of my throat.

Great White Shark!

This is widely recognized as a nightmare for newbies in the regional channel.

Last night, at least several hundred people on the channel drowned because their rafts were smashed by this thing.

When people encounter this dorsal fin, they hide in the middle of the raft, trembling, praying that it will swim away quickly.

Senior Xiao Zheng actually...

Kill it?!

Another solo kill?!

Judging from the overhead angle of the photo, the distance is ridiculously close.

Her fingers trembled as she looked down at the caption.

Extra meal...

Using this apex predator of the sea as an extra meal?!

Lin Xiaoya swallowed.

My mind went blank for a moment.

In this desperate situation where even a sip of water is scarce, why would they use the dominant species in the sea as a food reserve?

Is this something a human being is capable of doing?

My fingers hovered over the virtual keyboard for a long time, unsure of what to do next.

I held it in for a full two minutes.

She then sent a voice message, her voice trembling.

"Senior... this thing must be a bit tough on your teeth, right?"

On the raft.

Xiao Zheng listened to the trembling voice in the recording.

He burst out laughing.

This little girl is really timid.

I casually closed the chat panel.

He was just joking around; he really didn't intend to give this sour meat to anyone else.

Xiao Zheng brought up his personal panel.

[Host: Xiao Zheng]

[Level: 3]

Current experience points: 15/400

The blue experience bar was only partially filled.

Xiao Zheng's gaze was fixed on that string of numbers.

You start at level 1, and it takes 100 experience points to level up to level 2.

Having just killed the mutated shark, and with my previous accumulated points, I've finally broken through the 200-point mark and reached level 3.

Now, the threshold for upgrading from level 3 to level 4 has skyrocketed to 400 points.

It's more than double the growth if this trend continues.

It takes 800 points to upgrade from level 4 to level 5.

Reaching level 10 will require an astronomical number of experience points that will be utterly daunting.

It would take several lifetimes to accumulate enough just to collect enough for basic wooden buckets and seaweed.

We must kill higher-level monsters or plunder larger resource points.

The gaze moves downwards.

Stop at the most crucial four-dimensional attribute panel.

【Strength: 17】

[Agility: 17]

[Physical Fitness: 15]

【Spirit: 18】

The limit for an average person is 10.

When leveling up to level 2, all attributes increased by 2 points.

I just leveled up 3 times, and all my attributes increased by 4 points.

Xiao Zheng raised his right hand, his ten fingers curled and clenched together.

He bent down and picked up a piece of wood from beside him.

Hold the edge with two fingers and press down with your thumb.

"Click."

The wooden board broke in half on the spot.

In terms of physical strength alone, he would absolutely sweep aside anyone fighting in underground boxing matches now.

The level has now been increased to level 3.

According to the system rules.

For each level you advance, you are guaranteed a chance to draw a gold-tier affix.

I drew [Shot Success] at level 1.

I drew [Immune to All Laws] at level 2.

These two exceptional attributes gave him an overwhelming survival advantage in the first two days of the game.

Whether it's resource collection or security.

Maximize all settings.

Now, it's time for the level 3 gold modifiers.

Xiao Zheng brought up the system panel and focused his gaze directly on the newly lit gold icon below the level.

The icon flashed with a blinding light.

Without the slightest hesitation, I raised my hand and clicked to confirm the draw.

The system's light screen suddenly vibrated.

The originally blue and white translucent panel was instantly rendered into a pure bright gold.

Three blinding beams of light shot down from the top of the screen, landing on the 36-square-meter deck of the wooden raft.

The light dissipated.

Three cards, suspended in mid-air and adorned with flowing dark gold patterns, were arranged in a row.

The core advantage during the early stages of development is entirely based on the abnormal attributes of these golden affixes.

Xiao Zheng stepped forward and touched the first card on the far left.

Flip the card.

A long string of data popped up.

[Entry 1: Immortal Body (Gold)]

[Attribute: Sacrifice/Devour]

[Consolidation Requirements: Inanimate objects or the object itself]

[Effect: Grants the target the ability to devour the flesh and blood of living beings. After killing any creature, a portion of its four main attributes can be forcibly extracted and retained. There is no limit to the number of creatures that can be devoured, and there is no limit to the stacking of attributes.]

[Price: Excessive consumption will lead to severe physical mutations and mental pollution, making one highly susceptible to losing their sanity and becoming a stitched-together monster driven only by the instinct to kill.]

After reading the last line of warning text, Xiao Zheng immediately withdrew his finger.

There is no upper limit to the stacking of attributes.

That's certainly tempting.

As long as he goes on a killing spree in this sea area, slaughtering and devouring all those mutated great white sharks and deep-sea monsters, his four-dimensional attributes will definitely soar to a terrifying value.

It's possible to destroy an entire island with a single punch.

But he would never choose that.

What if eight tentacles or a dozen heads suddenly grow from the body?

What's the use of being invincible?

Neither human nor ghost.

This option was immediately ruled out.

Xiao Zheng stepped over the first card and came to the center.

Tap the second image with your finger.

[Entry 2: Spatial Leap (Gold)]

[Attribute: Dimensional Crossing/Displacement]

[Fixing Requirements: Vehicle or Self]

[Effect: Locks onto any spatial node or physical entity within the line of sight, instantly swapping their positions. Can be used three times daily, ignoring physical barriers.]
