The God of War Who Protects the Nation: Starting with Saving a Mother and Daughter in Distress

"Whoosh~"

Accompanied by the sound of a sharp blade piercing the air, a piercing scream rang out.

Before the prey could even react to its injury and go berserk state, a tall figure suddenly leaped out, his butcher's knife slashing across the neck of the wounded roe deer.

Blood spurted out instantly, and the roe deer, which had been struggling, was completely exhausted.

Before it could fall, a pair of large hands landed on it, lifting it up so that the blood flowing from its neck would fall directly into the wooden bucket that was already filled with salt.

During this process, the roe deer tried its best to struggle, but no matter how hard it struggled, it was to no avail.

Those two large hands were like two iron clamps, locking its limbs tightly.

As the roe deer grew quieter, the hunter, dressed in stitched animal skins, smiled.

"It's been a month, and we've finally hunted something big."

Needless to say, this hunter was none other than Qin An.

Whether it's to improve their own living conditions, prepare for the coming winter, or cope with the pressure of war.

Qin An worked extremely hard throughout the past month.

They would go hunting in the mountains every day.

With the system's support, he was completely focused on killing his opponent, even if it meant fighting until they were dead.

As their experience grew, their daily earnings increased, more and more than enough to meet their family's daily needs.

They might even have extra meat to exchange for money and improve their family's living conditions.

As a result, Qin An underwent significant changes within that month.

The most obvious result was that, after a month of consuming meat, his body, which had been so thin that he was practically skin and bones, swelled up as if it had been inflated.

In addition, he learned some body-strengthening techniques from his youngest daughter, Cai Zhen, and he became visibly much stronger.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully killed the creature and gained one drop of blood!]

As the roe deer died completely, the system's voice arrived as promised.

As the blood and qi flowed in, the feeling of comfort throughout his body caused Qin An to groan involuntarily.

This feeling is almost as wonderful as when I was with Yang Yuyan.

Just when Qin An thought that after the initial relief, the system would fall silent as usual, he saw the system react again.

[Congratulations, host! The deficit has been filled. You may now access your personal panel. Do you wish to access it?]

Qin An was greatly encouraged.

Previously, due to an abnormal deficit, the personal panel in the system had not been displayed for a long time, but now it's finally time.

He quickly chose to turn it on.

The next moment, a virtual panel appeared in front of me.

【Name: God of Slaughter System】

[Introduction: Nature creates all things...]

[Host: Qin An]

Age: 17

【Strength: 8】

[Agility: 6]

[Physical Fitness: 7]

[Endurance: 4]

【Spirit: 3】

Commander-in-Chief: 5

[Skills: Basic Archery, Basic Hunting, Basic Swordsmanship]

Overall combat strength: 5 (Note: The average value for an unarmed, average adult is 1)

Looking at his personal panel, Qin An immediately frowned.

The items on the panel are easy to understand.

These numbers, however, left Qin An somewhat puzzled.

If an ordinary person is one, does that mean I have eight times the strength of an adult?

This is obviously impossible.

Just as Qin An was beginning to have doubts, he saw an explanation appear on the system panel.

After taking a closer look, a look of sudden realization appeared on his face.

"Are the various figures just general indicators of the number of people who can handle ordinary people? The real key factor is overall combat strength."

"A combat power of 5 means I can take on 5 ordinary adults?"

Qin An was not at all surprised that he was much stronger than the average person.

He had long realized that his physical talent was quite outstanding.

Whether in height, weight, or other aspects, they are much stronger than the average person.

It's normal that their current numerical values ​​far exceed those of ordinary people.

However, when he saw that he could only fight five people, he still sighed inwardly.

During this period, he and Yang Yuyan had a lot of exchanges.

Yang Yuyan, a former noblewoman, had a perspective that ordinary village women could not match.

From her, Qin An learned a lot of things that ordinary villagers didn't know.

In this world, for those renowned generals, achieving the feat of killing a hundred men is just basic; there are also those who can take on a thousand men single-handedly.

There are even legends of a true warrior capable of defeating ten thousand men.

He was a truly peerless warrior who could take the head of an enemy general from among ten thousand troops as easily as taking something out of a bag.

When Qin An first heard Yang Yuyan recount these events, he felt a surge of excitement.

I thought I had pretty good talent, and maybe I even had the potential to become a great general.

But seeing that he could only take on five opponents left Qin An feeling somewhat disappointed.

Fortunately, the thought that he now had a system by his side, making anything possible, put his mind at ease.

"Even if I'm a little weak now, it doesn't matter. As long as the system exists, I have unlimited potential for growth. Sooner or later, I'll be able to stand at the pinnacle of this world!"

After reaffirming his convictions, Qin An stopped paying attention to so many other things.

I dealt with the roe deer in my hands immediately.

Disembowel, remove the internal organs, peel off the skin and pull out the tendons...

Qin An was already extremely familiar with this process.

After cleaning, he placed the hide and tendons at the bottom of the basket, and then pressed the roe deer meat on top.

After doing all this, Qin An's gaze fell on his nearly ruined wooden bow, and he sighed.

He naturally didn't have the money to buy a bow.

This was merely a simple bow and arrow he made himself.

It can be said that both the bow handle and the bowstring are extremely substandard.

He only demonstrated the destructive power of the bow and arrow by relying on his own brute strength.

But precisely because of this, a bow can only be used a few times.

In the past month, he has ruined more than a dozen of these bows.

On the other hand, thanks to these crudely made bows and arrows, he has been able to hunt more and more prey over the past month.

No matter what, even the simplest bow and arrow is still much better than a slingshot.

After all, the pre-launch time of the sling is too long, which is easy to startle the prey.

"These makeshift bows and arrows are ultimately a waste of time and effort. I wonder if selling this roe deer would be enough to buy a decent hunting bow?"

After successfully supporting his family with his hunting skills, Qin An's greatest wish now is to own a good bow of his own.

We have been working towards that goal.

"With the right bow and arrows, I'll be able to hunt more game, and I'll definitely be able to give my house a fresh new look before winter arrives!"

With such high hopes, Qin An didn't linger any longer. He took his prey and headed back.

Seeing that it was still early, he did not rush home, but instead took his prey and headed towards the county town near Baishan Village!
