006. An Awkward Encounter
[Slaying the F-rank beast soldier, the One-Horned Boar, does not meet the requirements for becoming stronger...]
I saw a system notification.
Lin Langtian's lips twitched slightly.
Damn, my guess was wrong.
What a disappointment!
It seems that the starting condition for becoming stronger by killing enemies is based on physical fitness.
Just then, the system notification message flashed again.
[Overall Combat Strength: Advanced Warrior → Junior General!]
"Um?"
After a moment of stunned silence, Lin Langtian quickly brought up his personal information panel.
Name: Lin Langtian
[Physical Attributes: Intermediate Warrior]
[Spiritual Practitioner: Unawakened]
[Bloodline: Ninth Rank in the Universe]
[Comprehension: Bronze 5 stars]
[Technique: None]
Storage space: None
[Overall Combat Strength: Junior Warrior]
As expected, he has been promoted to a junior general.
Lin Langtian's face lit up with joy, which gave him a great sense of accomplishment.
I really am a genius.
His guess was wrong, but that doesn't matter.
He can now rapidly improve his strength without relying on the system's rewards.
But it’s normal if you think about it carefully.
He had no combat skills or awareness before, and only possessed the combat power of a high-level warrior through his strong physical attributes.
While fighting the one-horned boar just now,
At first, he was in a sorry state, but as time went by, he began to gain the upper hand. After half an hour, he had completely dominated the game and was invincible without relying on his superior physical abilities. The unicorn boar couldn't even touch him.
This shows that he has good combat talent!
His comprehension is truly astonishing!
He originally thought his Bronze 5-star comprehension was poor, but now it seems it's not so bad.
"If this continues, it might not take more than a few days for my overall combat strength to match my physical abilities."
Lin Langtian was in a good mood and put the carcass of the one-horned wild boar into his system storage space.
Then they prepared to go find monsters to fight again.
"Gurgle..."
Just then, a sound came from his stomach, and Lin Langtian realized that something serious had happened.
He had no food or water.
Without these two things, it's impossible to stay in the wild for long.
"Is this thing edible?"
Lin Langtian looked at the carcass of the one-horned wild boar lying in the storage space.
He's starving, and wild boar meat is still pork, so there's no reason why he can't eat it.
The only problem was that he didn't have a sharp weapon to cut a piece of meat off the one-horned boar.
However, it's easy to solve. With his immense strength, tearing off a few pieces of meat from the one-horned boar shouldn't be a problem.
As for starting a fire...
I think starting a fire by rubbing sticks together should work.
Although he had never practiced it, he now possessed tens of thousands of kilograms of strength, and he didn't believe that two pieces of dry wood couldn't be rubbed together to produce a spark.
He first gathered some dry grass and firewood and stored them in his storage space, then headed straight for the abandoned small county town of No. 0351.
He needed to find a safe place to start a fire and grill meat, and in his opinion, only the rooftop of a high-rise building was the safest.
……
On the rooftop of Building 8 in Quanxing Residential Area, in the abandoned county town of No. 0351.
Vinina was packing her things; this was her temporary accommodation for the past two months.
She chose this place as her temporary residence because of its high location; Building No. 8 is the tallest building in the entire county.
Standing on the rooftop of Building 8, she could overlook the entire county and observe any situation that occurred within it immediately.
Vinina had two combat backpacks in front of her. She hid the slightly deflated one on the left behind the corner of the wall and then moved over a few cement slabs to cover it up.
After confirming that she had hidden it properly, she quickly slung the combat backpack on her right shoulder.
This combat backpack is bulging with monster materials.
In two months, she had made a lot of progress, but with little supplies left, she decided to return to the martial arts supply base.
After glancing once more at the spot where she had hidden her backpack, Vinina decisively turned around and went to the door leading from the rooftop to the building's stairwell.
After confirming that there were no monsters behind the door, Vinina opened the door and went into the hallway, then quickly closed the door again and used the prepared cement slab to block the door.
While this method cannot completely prevent monsters from entering the rooftop from the stairwell, under normal circumstances, monsters will not choose to force their way through if they see an obstruction.
After doing all this, Vinina carefully went downstairs.
There are quite a few monsters in this building, so it's always best to be careful.
However, she had already figured out the situation of the monsters on each floor, and soon arrived downstairs safely.
Upon arriving downstairs, Vinina was about to take a shortcut to the outer ring road when she suddenly stopped and turned to look to her right.
Lin Langtian appeared there.
The next moment, Vinina's fair and delicate face flushed red.
Because Lin Langtian looked so miserable at that moment.
His clothes seemed to have been torn to shreds by the monster's claws, leaving even his most intimate parts barely covered.
My God, what happened to him?!
Vinina was somewhat surprised.
In her eyes, Lin Langtian was a master who could shatter the skull of a mid-level beast general with his fist.
Lin Langtian also saw Vinina.
Their eyes met, and he couldn't help but feel a little awkward.
His current appearance is indeed somewhat unsightly.
But what could he do?
His clothes were just ordinary clothes, not combat uniforms, and the monster tore them to shreds with just a few claws.
Do you have any extra dry food or water?
Lin Langtian broke the silence first. Compared to the important matter of filling one's stomach, what was a little embarrassment?
Meeting Vinina was like finding a savior for him.
With dry rations to eat, who would want to eat monster meat whose taste is unknown?
Upon hearing Lin Langtian's words, Vinina quickly came to her senses.
She quickly organized her thoughts, and her somewhat broken Mandarin began to flow.
"Um... This rooftop is my temporary residence for the time being. I've hidden about a week's worth of supplies there, so you can have it."
"Oh, that's wonderful!"
Lin Langtian's face lit up with joy, and he looked at Vinina gratefully, "Consider it a favor I owe you."
"I'm glad I could help you," Vinina said, her eyes lingering on Lin Langtian.
This made Lin Langtian feel somewhat uncomfortable.
After a moment, Vinina said, "I have to go back to the Warrior Supply Base now, so I won't chat with you any longer."
As soon as she finished speaking, Vinina turned around and left decisively.
Lin Langtian watched her retreating figure and whispered, "Be careful!"
Vinina heard this and raised her hand in response.
After Vinina disappeared, Lin Langtian went straight upstairs to the rooftop.
The journey wasn't very smooth. They encountered monsters as soon as they reached the third floor, but Lin Langtian had no intention of fighting them for the time being. He was very hungry!
Once he's had his fill, he'll show these monsters what happens when they mess with him.
Soon, Lin Langtian arrived at the rooftop and successfully found the combat backpack that Vinina had hidden.
Inside, there was not only about a week's worth of dry food and water, but also a tent, a lighter, binoculars, a small dagger, and other items.
"This has really solved my immediate problem!"
Lin Langtian sighed, it seemed he and Vinina were quite destined for each other.
After eating and drinking to one's heart's content.
Lin Langtian used a small dagger to dissect the horn off the one-horned wild boar.
He was currently lacking a weapon, and this sharp horn could be used as a short sword.
"Now, it's time to test how well the weapon works!"
His current task is to quickly improve his overall combat capabilities.
