Starting from The Witcher, he slaughtered his way across the world.

late at night.

There were twenty beds in one of the tents. Luo Fan lay down on one of the beds, listening to the snores all around him, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

His sleep quality has been extremely poor for the past few days. It has nothing to do with the noise around him. He just keeps having random thoughts when he closes his eyes, like he has insomnia. Even though he is very tired, he can't fall asleep for no reason, as if he doesn't want to go to sleep.

"The environment was bad, my health was poor, and then I encountered something like a demonic corpse. It's normal to have trouble sleeping."

Luo Fan rolled over on the cramped bed, closed his eyes to count sheep, and in a daze, he saw a gray, human-shaped shadow in the corner, staring at him without moving.

Suddenly, he was wide awake and jumped out of bed in terror. When he looked at the corner of the wall again, it was dark and there was no human-shaped gray shadow there.

"illusion?"

He tried to calm his racing heart, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he lay back down.

Now I couldn't sleep at all, so I started to distract myself and think about what happened in the afternoon.

As expected, the prisoners who had eaten too much started to have stomach aches. Some were okay, but some were rolling on the ground clutching their stomachs. The patrolling personnel showed no mercy and gave them a good whipping, making them scream in pain.

It is understood that those patrol personnel were also conscripted laborers, essentially no different from the others. However, after their job changes, they ruthlessly wielded their whips against the miners who had once suffered alongside them.

Even in this small labor camp, there was such a clear class system.

The abject weakness of human rights is on full display at this moment; those who have entered this labor camp can no longer be considered human beings.

This made Luo Fan even more eager to get rid of the constraints of his identity, otherwise he would also be dragged into this quagmire and unable to get out.

But in this labor camp, I wonder if there's any way to solve this problem.

If you really want to know, there's only one way: demonstrate your value.

Luo Fan believed that if he could demonstrate more value than being sent to mine, even if it meant being exploited in a different way, it would be better than staying in this hopeless labor camp.

There was no hope in this labor camp; the so-called work points could only be exchanged for some easier jobs.

Positions such as transporter, recorder, inspector, camp cook... each required different work points, and the only difference was that the pay was slightly better than that of the laborers who mined.

Even so, many miners still worked themselves to the bone, hoping to find themselves an easy job.

Luo Fan looked down on these jobs; he sought a freer life.

Having acquired the enhanced panel, what he desires most right now is to regain his freedom.

To achieve this, one cannot hide one's shortcomings; one must demonstrate one's value. However, one must not be too obviously ostentatious; one must do so in a way that does not arouse suspicion.

For the next four days, Luo Fan acted as if he was desperately trying to earn work points, exhausting himself to the point of near death every day.

However, he was able to exceed his daily targets and earn work points, which he then exchanged for meat.

Five work points can be exchanged for a meal of meat; the amount isn't much, but it's enough to fill your stomach.

Moreover, this is meat, and even if it's not the best kind of meat, it's still real protein, which is the nutrition that Luo Fan desperately needs.

He ate meat at every meal, something even miners who had accumulated work points would be reluctant to do, but he did it anyway, and ate as much as he wanted.

The more you eat, the more you work, and the more work points you earn, creating a cycle.

Many people thought he wouldn't last more than a few days, but Luo Fan has already lasted four days, and he's getting better every day.

This intense competition successfully triggered a sense of crisis among some miners who had accumulated a certain number of work points, causing them to work even harder.

He was afraid that he wouldn't have enough work points and wouldn't be able to compete with Luo Fan for a job transfer.

These changes within the labor camp successfully caught the attention of the supervisor, Marcus.

Inside the mine.

Luo Fan gripped the iron pickaxe with both hands, striking the stone wall in front of him again and again. Sweat covered his forehead, and the muscles in his arms were strong and powerful. He looked like a robust young man, radiating vitality.

Kant, who was standing nearby, was astonished. At first, he was worried when he saw Luo Fan working so hard, fearing that his body couldn't handle it.

But as the days went by, he became increasingly surprised. Not only did Luo Fan hold on, but he also grew stronger and stronger, as if he had no energy left.

This gradually eased his worries, and he began to provide assistance from the sidelines.

Luo Fan's technique became increasingly skillful, like that of an experienced miner. The solid rock wall could not withstand his iron pick for long before collapsing with a crash.

"You're 222?"

Footsteps came from behind, followed by Marcus's voice.

Upon hearing this, Luo Fan stopped what he was doing, turned around, and immediately replied, "Yes, sir."

"What's your name?"

Marcus picked up the lamp in his hand and looked Luo Fan up and down by the light, finding the young man in front of him to be exceptionally young.

He was eighteen or nineteen years old, with bright and piercing eyes, though his face was a little pale. In comparison, he was quite strong and covered in sweat, which made him look just like the rumors said—a hard worker.

Marcus vaguely remembered this kid, recalling that he seemed to have seen him four days ago.

He was squatting on the ground, eating his black bread slowly and deliberately, which showed that he had a certain degree of self-control.

I heard these past few days that he worked hard to earn work points to exchange for a lot of meat. I didn't expect him to actually eat himself so well and become so strong. He's quite a well-organized young man.

That's not bad.

"My name is Luo Fan, sir."

Luo Fan was respectful.

"Good job, you've been doing excellently lately. I'll reward you with a decent meat meal tonight."

Marcus stepped forward and patted Lofan on the arm, taking the opportunity to feel the muscles in his arm, and then smiled.

To develop such solid muscles from mining every day, he's quite a promising talent.

"Do a good job."

After saying that, he turned and left, as if he had only come here to see Luo Fan once.

Watching his retreating figure, Luo Fan let out a breath, turned around, picked up the pickaxe, and continued to chisel forcefully.

"Son, why are you working so hard?"

Kant, standing nearby, asked, puzzled.

"Looking for a way out."

Luo Fan replied in a low voice. He hadn't expected to attract Marcus's attention so quickly, but it was also within his expectations.

These days he's been doing the work of two people, and all the work points he's earned have been used to buy meat. He's eating enough for two people, and his body has visibly become much stronger.

This did have some effect, but the changes in Luo Fan's body were more due to the fact that he had secretly enhanced the basic body strengthening technique to LV5.

[Consuming 5 enhancement points can upgrade the Basic Body Strengthening Technique LV5 (currently maxed out) to the next tier.]

After reaching level 5 in the Basic Body Strengthening Technique, it requires 5 points to continue strengthening. Luo Fan doesn't know what changes will occur after strengthening, but there will definitely be a greater improvement.

Now, just as he has maintained his fitness habit for many years, he is healthy and strong, with both his strength and stamina greatly improved, far surpassing his previous self.

However, he only has 2 enhancement points left, and it will take him six days to advance the basic body strengthening technique.

"You're still young, so it's good for you to work hard. Maybe you can really make it out of this labor camp. But don't overwork yourself. Be careful and don't take advantage of your youth to do anything reckless."

Kang Dezhi earnestly gave Luo Fan instructions from the side, with a hint of worry always in his eyes.
