After eating a few pieces, Xiaoqing also felt the changes in her body and nodded: "There are indeed changes. My body feels warm, like there is a warm current flowing through my body."

Xiaoli ate very slowly, taking small bites of the fish. Her complexion was much better than yesterday.

Xiao Rui picked up another piece, her cheeks puffed out, "I don't think it hurts as much anymore."

Several girls looked at her at the same time.

Xiao Rui was incredibly bold, completely unaware of what she had just said. She mumbled, "Sister Xiaoli, you should eat too. You must help me when you're better. I almost died just now..."

"Alright, alright, let's eat." Xiao Qing tapped her on the head.

Xiao Rui shrank her neck and finally shut her mouth.

Fish is high in energy.

The girls could only eat a small bowl before they couldn't eat anymore. They straightened their backs, rubbed their bellies, and had expressions of satisfaction mixed with pain on their faces.

"I'm so full..." Xiao Rui slumped in the chair, her skirt crumpled up, too lazy to even care about the exposed skin. "My stomach's going to explode..."

"Me too," Xiaoyu said, rubbing her stomach. "I can't eat anymore. I still want to eat, but my stomach can't hold any more."

Lin Feng looked at them thoughtfully.

It seems that ordinary people are far less efficient at absorbing the meat of mutated creatures than awakened individuals. They get full after eating just a small bowl, not because their stomachs can't hold it, but because their bodies have reached their absorption limit and the energy in the fish and meat is not fully absorbed.

In short, it's because the body is holding up.

Lin Feng was pondering a question: it was obvious that fish meat could indeed enhance the strength of ordinary people, but if they ate the meat of mutated creatures a few more times, would their physical fitness catch up with that of awakened beings?

Even if they don't awaken the corresponding abilities, as long as their physical fitness is strong enough, their strength is great enough, and their reaction is fast enough, then if you give them a weapon and teach them how to fight, wouldn't they no longer be just pretty faces?

The thought lingered in Lin Feng's mind, and he silently memorized it.

There's no rush now, we can talk about it later.

Lin Feng poured the fish from the pot into a bowl. There were at least two or three pounds of fish left, and he ate it all in one go.

Constitution +3

After finishing a pot of fish, Lin Feng's physique improved by a full 3 points. He glanced at his personal panel.

Level: 1 (92%)

Physical condition: 75

Power: 56

Agility: 46

Spirit: 58

Psychic Power: 68

This rate of improvement is even faster than absorbing the Mystic Crystal. Each time the Mystic Crystal is absorbed, the main improvement is in spiritual energy, while the most significant improvement during leveling up is in mental power, with a slight increase in strength and agility attributes. I wonder what other people's awakened talents are like, but they should be roughly the same.

Lin Feng put down the bowl with satisfaction, letting out a long sigh of relief. The fish in the pot, along with the broth and meat, was completely clean.

"We've finished eating, let's put the food away." Lin Feng stood up and stretched.

Several people started clearing away the dishes. Although Xiao Rui walked a little awkwardly, she still helped carry the bowls to the stove.

"Xiaoli, take Xiaorui upstairs to rest."

Xiaoli nodded, reached out and took Xiaorui's arm, and Xiaorui obediently followed her upstairs.

Lin Feng walked out of the room, went up the stairs to the roof, and looked towards the front of the convoy.

Traveling during the day and traveling at night are completely different experiences. At night, the car headlights can only illuminate the road for a few dozen meters ahead, and beyond that, it is pitch black. Drivers drive very carefully, and the slow speed is unsettling. If you can travel 100 kilometers in one night, you're considered lucky.

It's completely different during the day; the convoy goes at full speed, literally flooring the accelerator.

The armored motorhome at the front was traveling at at least 100 miles per hour, speeding across the wilderness and kicking up a trail of dust. Buses followed closely behind, one after another, while trucks were moving at a slightly slower pace.

The private vehicles following behind didn't dare to fall behind either, running as fast as they could. Although they didn't know why the lead vehicle was going crazy and running so fast, they cursed and slammed on the gas pedal to keep up with the convoy.

No one dares to stop at this critical juncture.

Every now and then, mutated beasts would dart out from the wilderness on both sides of the road.

Some were mutated hyenas, some were mutated cats, or groups of giant rats with the distinctive gray-black patches on their bodies and scarlet eyes staring at the convoy.

These mutated monsters had long since lost their original appearance; each one was hideous and irrational, baring their fangs as they lunged at the convoy.

boom……

Wang Lie stood on the armored vehicle, raised his hand, and a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking the mutated beast precisely on the head.

The beast fell to the ground without uttering a sound, its limbs twitched twice, and then it remained still.

Another wolf-shaped mutated monster approached from the right side of the convoy. Chen Min leaned half her body out of the sunroof of a bus, and a silver-white knife drew an arc in the air, accurately piercing the mutated wolf's head. The knife spun once in the air and flew back into her hand.

The vehicles didn't even stop; the convoy roared past the corpses of the mutated monsters. No one got out to collect the spoils, and the mutated beasts' corpses were simply abandoned on the roadside, quickly covered by the dust kicked up by the convoy.

Lin Feng stood on the roof, watching the corpses disappear from sight. He felt a pang of regret. Were they just thrown away like that?

But the convoy simply couldn't stop.

The gray fog was chasing them; time was of the essence, every minute was a race against time, and the farther they were from the gray fog, the safer they would be.

The road continued to meander, veering left and right. Shen Yutong's astrological abilities played a crucial role, and the driver of the armored vehicle followed the route she provided, precisely avoiding high-risk areas with each turn.

Standing on high ground, Lin Feng could clearly see what the convoy was avoiding.

It was either a dilapidated village, shrouded in a thin mist that blocked out even sunlight. Just one glance at the village sent chills down Lin Feng's spine, as if something was slumbering there, ready to awaken at any moment.

It could be a collapsed high-rise building, its surface covered with a layer of black vines, the ends of which droop down, twisting and swaying in the air, inspiring awe.

Or it could be a strange, high mountain, oddly shaped, grayish-black in color, without trees or even a blade of grass, shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds. You don't even need to look to know that what's there is something dangerous.

Although Lin Feng did not have any awakened mental abilities, he could still feel the chilling aura emanating from those places from that great distance, as if his body was telling him to stay away from there, the farther the better.

Lin Feng gained a new understanding of Shen Yutong's abilities once again.

This woman's ability allows her to find a relatively safe route in a post-apocalyptic world riddled with death traps, avoiding the gray fog while also circumventing these eerie entities—something no ordinary person could do.

If it were Lin Feng himself, he probably wouldn't even get halfway before plunging headlong into some high-level, eerie territory and being swallowed up without leaving a trace.

Suddenly, the convoy, which was moving at full speed, suddenly slowed down.
