There's something wrong with me
Chapter 72 New World [Growing Strongly] (6K)
[Revival: 3]
[Adventure Level: 2+]
[Adventure Type: Special, World Line Regression]
[Main Quest: Survive 3 days]
[Non-Essential Main Quest: Survive 5 days]
[Identity: Traveler]
[Maximum Enhancement Times: 4 (Maximum Limit Already Calculated)]
[For Each Day Survived, You Will Receive One Enhancement Choice]
...
Opening his eyes, the beams of several old-fashioned flashlights slightly illuminated the cave, which was about several hundred square meters in size.
Five men and one woman were in front of him, silently organizing supplies.
And at this moment.
The girl said, "Turn off the other lights, just leave one on."
"Okay..." The others responded silently, turning off the excess lights.
The cave became even darker at this moment, with only the sunlight shining through from above, hitting a small patch of the side wall.
Zhang Feng glanced at them, then looked at the environment, and first looked at the previous adventure introduction.
'I have three choices from the start, with a maximum limit of one.
This means that the choice enhancements within this "past timeline" all rely on the reward enhancements I obtained from previously completed tasks.
If no tasks have been completed, then there is only one choice at the start.
It is indeed a special world. Although there may be some special rewards at the end, there are not many enhancements.'
Zhang Feng quickly pondered the world information, and then began to recall his own memories.
Soon, Zhang Feng learned that the other six people had known each other for a long time and were 'backpackers' who had come out to play together.
He himself had only joined yesterday.
But it could also be said that the six of them had gradually gathered together while walking like this.
Except that he was the last one.
Then, unfortunately.
Just this morning, when he and they were walking on a mountain, the ground suddenly collapsed.
Then they fell into this cave along with the dirt.
Fortunately, the bottom was soft soil, and they rolled down from the adjacent slope along with the dirt, so none of them were seriously injured.
It's just that they couldn't get back up.
Because everyone was lightly equipped for a spring outing on the mountain at the time, not mountain climbing and exploring, so ropes and hammers were all at the campsite.
They only carried some food and water, as well as some small everyday tools.
Who knew the ground would collapse.
After Zhang Feng recalled this information, he didn't have any particular opinion about it, because if they had everything fully equipped, he wouldn't have come here.
At the same time.
After Zhang Feng understood what had happened, he also began to look at his own 'knowledge'.
First of all, he had some wilderness exploration experience.
Although most of it overlapped with what Zhang Feng knew, having a little more was better than nothing.
Then look at the attributes.
[Constitution: 13]
[Root Bone: 1]
[Martial Arts: 1.3]
Zhang Feng focused on Constitution and didn't care about the other two, because there were only five days in this world.
Afterwards, Zhang Feng sorted out all the real-time information and, based on his understanding of the situation, looked at the first enhancement.
[1: Elementary Vigorous Growth]
[2: Bloodstained Pursuit]
[3: Growing Constitution]
Zhang Feng glanced at it and first looked at 1.
[Elementary Vigorous Growth: Ordinary, Epic]
[Effect 1: After selection, your weight will immediately increase by 10 pounds, with the increased weight being evenly distributed]
[Effect 2: Every month, your weight will increase by 10 pounds]
"..."
Zhang Feng frowned as he read. Although it was good and a perfect match for 'a broad mind and a stout body', it didn't seem to be useful now.
If there really were any fierce beasts here, would it be to give them ten more pounds of meat to eat?
Then look at 2.
[Bloodstained Pursuit: Ordinary, Epic, only appears at the beginning]
[Note: Kill three cave creatures]
[Kill 1: Constitution + 1.3]
[Kill 2: Digestion and Absorption + 30 grams]
[Kill 3: No longer hungry for one day (Perfectly effective for Constitution below 20)]
[All Targets Executed: Root Bone + 0.4, Reaction Speed - 0.009, and receive a rare enhancement opportunity]
'Cave creatures?'
Zhang Feng first glanced around the cave and picked up the flashlight at hand, turning it on. Through the light, he saw several tunnels beneath the rock walls of the cave.
"I don't know if there are any wild animals there." At this time, a man with a face full of dust next to him looked towards the place Zhang Feng was shining the light.
"Wild animals?!" The others also subconsciously sat back.
Zhang Feng ignored them and continued to look at the third option while shining the light on the tunnel.
[Growing Constitution: Constitution + 0.2 for each day survived]
Only 1 point of Constitution in five days.
Far inferior to the various rewards of Bloodstained Pursuit.
Zhang Feng directly chose Bloodstained Pursuit.
However, after choosing, Zhang Feng found that this Bloodstained Pursuit did not have a 'Bloodstained Mark', nor did it specify that a certain cave creature had to be killed.
What were cave creatures?
Did it count if all the creatures in the cave were considered?
Zhang Feng thought to himself, looked at a woodlouse at his feet, and directly stomped it to death, but found that there was no reward.
"Zhang!" A middle-aged man next to him saw this and quickly reminded, "Be careful, some insects are poisonous. Don't stomp them indiscriminately. Some insects will release poisonous gas after being stepped on."
"It's just a woodlouse, a pill bug." Zhang Feng told them to relax.
Otherwise, if this person gets startled and that person gets startled, even if Zhang Feng wasn't nervous, he would be made nervous by them.
After that, Zhang Feng ignored them and quickly looked at the next two enhancements.
[1: Constitution + 0.9]
[2: Reaction Speed - 0.001]
[3: Root Bone + 0.2]
Choose 1, there's no time to develop in five days.
Then look at the third enhancement.
[1: Martial Arts + 0.1]
[2: Reaction Speed - 0.002]
[3: Constitution + 0.9]
3, stack up the Constitution first.
The reaction speed of a normal person is 0.2 - 0.3 seconds, -0.002, it's meaningless.
Strength is better.
Zhang Feng can perform better.
After selecting everything.
Zhang Feng then seriously looked at these six unfortunate brothers.
Perhaps because they rolled out of the mud, none of them were clean.
"The food is enough for us to eat for half a day." The girl saw Zhang Feng looking over, and while talking about the supplies, pointed to Zhang Feng's light,
"Old Xing and Brother Liu's flashlights don't have much power left, Brother Zhang, let's conserve a bit? We'll still need to use it to find a way out later."
In the girl's memory, Zhang Feng was a very sunny young man who was easy to talk to.
After spending a day together, basically, Zhang Feng wouldn't interrupt whatever the people in the team said.
Similarly, if Zhang Feng wasn't sunny and looked kind, the six of them wouldn't have brought Zhang Feng along on their trip.
"This cannot be saved."
At this moment, Zhang Feng was very calm, giving them a very unfamiliar feeling. Although they had only known each other for a short time, it was that sudden change in temperament.
This made them feel very strange.
The girl also stopped talking all of a sudden.
The others also didn't want to talk much with the 'suddenly cold' Zhang Feng, to avoid conflicts.
Zhang Feng saw that they seemed to have misunderstood him, and pointed around, saying, "The cave needs to be illuminated at all times, to prevent there really are wild animals.
If there really are, and they suddenly sneak over, it will be difficult for us to react."
"But isn't it the same when the power runs out?" A young man in a shirt retorted, "What will we do at that time?"
"Did you break your brain when you fell?" Zhang Feng hadn't spoken yet, but a man in his thirties named Brother Liu said, "Xiao Lin, are we just going to stay here all the time? Waiting for wild animals to come over?
Didn't we all discuss just now that we would find a way out together."
"You guys go." Xiao Lin shook his head, "I'll wait here for rescue."
"Why are you still being stubborn?" The others persuaded at this time,
"We agreed on things at the beginning, saying we would go together, why do you have to be stubborn?"
"Rescue? What are you going to use to call for rescue? The only radio is still at the campsite. Who knows we fell in here in this deep mountain forest?"
"That's right." The middle-aged Old Xing also persuaded, "Can we leave you here alone?"
The others were persuading, but a strong man directly grabbed Xiao Lin and pulled him up,
"Stop dawdling, Xiao Lin, let's go together."
After the strong man pulled him, he looked at Zhang Feng, "Um... Brother Zhang, turn off the flashlight, let's start looking for a way now."
"Okay." Zhang Feng heard that they were going to find a way out, and got up neatly.
The strong man, relying on his strong body and righteousness, took the lead and walked forward.
"Zhang!" Brother Liu then handed Zhang Feng a machete.
There were five in the team. They were originally going to cut firewood to make a fire, but now they could be used for self-defense.
"I'm carrying the food." After Brother Liu handed Zhang Feng the machete, he walked to the middle of the team.
Zhang Feng was behind him, and saw him carrying an old military backpack, which contained ten apples, some wild vegetables, and some cooking seasonings.
"The drinks are with me." Old Xing looked like he was encouraging everyone, and said quickly, "Anyone who is thirsty can come to me for water."
Old Xing also carried a large bag, which contained seven different water bottles and two bottles of spirits.
"I have gauze here." The girl carried a small bag, which contained a few packs of cigarettes, a few boxes of matches, and half a roll of gauze.
Zhang Feng glanced at them. They had everything for a picnic, except for something to eat.
But now there were only ten apples and two pounds of wild vegetables that could be eaten.
Of course, if they were really hungry, they could mix the seasonings and matches, add cigarettes, and force down two bottles of spirits.
Once they drank it all in one go, they wouldn't have to worry about having anything to eat in the future.
"It's a pity about my fishing rod. I originally wanted to catch some fish." At this time, Old Xing also glanced back.
There was also a fishing rod where they fell down, but it unfolded halfway and was now broken.
The others also had fishing rods, but it was not easy to turn over the large pieces of soil.
At the same time, Zhang Feng heard that there was a 'wooden stick', and returned in the curious eyes of everyone, taking back the fishing rod with a handle section length of 75 centimeters.
It was made of thick bamboo, very strong and heavy.
Just right, Old Xing and another person didn't have weapons, so they could temporarily fill the gap.
"Your rod." Zhang Feng pressed the broken half of the fishing rod back, and handed it to Old Xing, "It's better than having nothing in your hand."
"I really didn't expect..." Old Xing touched his chin and beard, and said, "Thinking about it carefully, my fishing rod can really be used as a weapon."
He demonstrated to Zhang Feng, "Look, after twisting the handle at the end, you can lock the rod inside.
The rods in my house all have screw buckles at the end, just to prevent the caps from falling off and the rod sections from running around."
"Awesome." Zhang Feng saw that he locked the rod after twisting the end, but felt it was quite fun.
He didn't expect it to be so high-tech, like a lightsaber from Star Wars.
But in reality, this was the 80s. Everyone didn't have mobile phones, so there was no way to call for help. They could only save themselves.
‘Five days?’ Zhang Feng thought, looking up at the tunnel entrance.
He estimated it was over twenty meters high, with sloping walls, some sections smooth and vertical.
This was a world where the Imperial Prince possessed the highest martial arts skills.
Zhang Feng felt he should be able to climb up, but for now, he could only wait and see what kind of rescue would come in five days.
“Grab a stone…” The strong man interrupted Zhang Feng’s thoughts, slowly approaching the tunnel again.
“Here.” The person in front handed the strong man a stone.
Whoosh—
The strong man threw it inside, illuminating the tunnel with his flashlight.
The light revealed a bend in the tunnel about twenty meters in. The stone hit the wall there and stopped, the light also stopping at that rock face.
“Let’s check the other tunnels.” The strong man began throwing stones into the other tunnels.
Zhang Feng observed the entrances of these tunnels.
There were seven in total. Five of them were generally over two meters high, some wide enough for two or three people to walk side by side, others only wide enough for one person to squeeze through.
The remaining two tunnels were small, only half a meter high, requiring people to crawl.
Zhang Feng immediately ruled out the two small ones, as well as the one requiring a sideways shuffle.
Because if they encountered something in there, it would truly be a narrow escape.
The newest chapters are first released on 69shu.com!
At the same time, the strong man, along with Brother Liu and two others, were also examining the tunnels that were two meters high.
The small tunnels were out of the question.
They didn't want to squeeze through them either.
Whoosh—
Several minutes passed, and after the four men finished throwing stones, there was no response.
The group gathered again, still clueless.
Because there was no wind in any of these tunnels, it was eerily quiet.
Of course, the presence or absence of wind couldn’t completely determine whether there was an exit on the other side.
“Which tunnel should we start with?” The strong man looked at the group.
No one had any suggestions.
Zhang Feng casually pointed, “How about the first one on the left?”
“The left?”
“Is it that one?”
“Why choose this one?”
The group looked over, full of questions.
Then, since no one had a better suggestion, they followed Zhang Feng’s casual pointing and began exploring the first tunnel.
Shuffling—
Slowly walking in from the entrance, the group lined up in a staggered formation.
The strong man took the lead, with Brother Liu lighting the way.
Zhang Feng, because he had a knife and looked more robust than the others, walked in third place.
Behind him were Old Xing in the middle, the girl behind him, and then the last few people.
Footsteps—
At this moment, the only sound in the tunnel was the sound of their footsteps, slowly exploring forward.
There were no rats or anything in the tunnel, but there were some small bones that looked like they might be from rats.
There were also some animal molted skins on the ground, but it was unknown what kind of creature they belonged to.
“What kind of animal is this? Is it a snake?” Someone picked one up to look at and handed it to the girl.
The girl had done a lot of research on animals.
But after looking at it for a while under the light, she shook her head, “I don’t know, I’ve never seen it before.”
Her words made the group feel like the situation was a bit off.
Zhang Feng also picked up a piece of molted skin to look at, but it wasn't in his memories of the last several decades.
“Let’s be careful.”
That was all he could say.
Fortunately, half an hour later, the group reached the end. There were no monsters here, only a dead end.
But many places on the walls had claw marks from some kind of beast.
“We’ve reached the end.” Zhang Feng saw that they had reached the end and suggested going back.
No one said much.
Less than half an hour.
The group returned the way they came.
Perhaps because of the experience in the first tunnel, Old Xing was the first to speak this time, pointing to the second tunnel on the left.
Continue in.
Zhang Feng was still in third place.
But unlike the others, who were carefully looking around, Zhang Feng’s gaze was always fixed on the wrists of both arms.
About ten minutes passed.
The muscles in both wrists slowly began to throb.
After a little over an hour, Zhang Feng had opened two meridians of the Great Demon Subduing Fist.
But Zhang Feng didn’t choose to practice resonance, but instead looked at the two meridians in the palms of his hands.
Continue to open them, but still unable to resonate.
Because the food supply was insufficient, it couldn’t replenish the consumption of improving his physique.
Furthermore, if he resonated, it would consume his strength, just like after a workout.
Zhang Feng didn’t want to encounter ‘some kind of cave creature’ when he was ‘exhausted’.
But now that he had opened them, Zhang Feng could perform ‘overclocked’ strikes.
Resonance would make overclocking fixed and permanent.
‘Now that I’ve opened the two meridians on my wrists, and I have a knife.
Plus, with a physique of nearly 15, even if a leopard jumped out of the cave, I could kill it with one strike.’
With nearly seventy or eighty years of martial arts experience, Zhang Feng was still very confident in himself.
Of course, Zhang Feng had also considered that he might be killed by the leopard.
If he was killed, he was killed. He could just restart, what else could he do.
‘Five days, there’s no way to increase my strength, I can only make do for now.’
Zhang Feng thought, using the optimal method to improve his current physical strength.
But at this moment, whoosh—
The sound of gravel suddenly echoed from the front of the tunnel.
“Be careful…” The strong man at the front subconsciously bent down, holding his machete in front of his chest.
“Light.” Brother Liu, now in fourth place, had someone shine the flashlight forward.
As the person shone the flashlight forward, a looming shadow could be seen at a corner in the dimly lit tunnel about fifty meters away.
“What is that thing?”
“Is it a wild beast?”
“Looking at the shadow, it looks like a person?”
“A person? Could it be… a ghost?”
The dark and narrow environment, coupled with the appearance of this shadow, sent chills down the spines of the strong man and the others.
Some people looked back at the way they came, and others looked at the top of their heads, afraid that some ghostly thing would suddenly appear.
“Should we turn back?” Old Xing in the middle suggested, wanting the group to go back.
“Go back…” Several people echoed in agreement.
“Let’s take a look.” Brother Liu was calmer.
But before anyone could respond.
“Squeak!”
The shadow suddenly darted out.
Its body was about one and a half meters long, but it walked upright like a human.
Its body was like a thinner version of an ape, but its head was like a rat.
Under the illumination of the light, its small black eyes emitted a strange red glow.
“A ghost?!” The group was startled and instinctively wanted to run back.
“Squeak!” This cave creature ran very fast, using all fours, its claws like those of a tiger or leopard.
Zhang Feng saw that this creature crawled much faster than a human, and knew that they couldn’t run.
“Fight, maybe there’s a chance of survival. Turn your back to it, and you’re really dead.”
Zhang Feng, holding his knife, squeezed past the strong man in front.
“Brother Zhang!” The strong man shouted, wanting to persuade Zhang Feng to leave, and looked at one of the people behind him who was already weak in the legs, “Get up!”
Faced with this strange cave creature, the group panicked.
Some people were weak in the legs, standing in place.
Some people were pushing the weak person to move.
Zhang Feng turned on his flashlight, put it on the ground, and walked towards the cave creature with his knife.
“Squeak!” The cave creature let out a piercing screech and crawled towards Zhang Feng at an even faster speed.
Zhang Feng judged the distance, and when it was about three meters away from him, he suddenly struck out with his knife, slashing horizontally towards its head!
But at this moment, it suddenly leaped up, its tail curled upwards behind it, the barbs grabbing onto the wall.
At first glance, and because the light was unclear, it looked like it was retreating and floating in the air in a strange way, easily dodging Zhang Feng’s strike.
At the same time, using its tail to swing on the wall, its sharp claws grabbed towards Zhang Feng’s face.
Zhang Feng jumped back to avoid it, and saw it return to the wall again.
‘Wall-crawling? Flying and burrowing? Could it really be a ghost?’
Zhang Feng was startled and retreated repeatedly, thinking it had some strange ability.
But then, as it chased after him, Zhang Feng heard a creaking sound as it moved on the rock wall, as if some sharp object was scraping against the stone.
‘It doesn’t have secret techniques, it has barbs on its limbs and tail!’
Zhang Feng’s thoughts flashed, his feet kicked up a cloud of dust on the ground, and he dodged its pounce from above.
Whoosh—
It jumped to the ground and looked at Zhang Feng again.
Zhang Feng stood in place, his back against the wall, holding the machete in reverse, the blade pointing downwards.
Tap tap—
The strong man, afraid that Zhang Feng was in danger, directly hefted his machete and wanted to come over to support him.
Even though he was afraid in his heart, he didn’t want to abandon his traveling companion.
The others had long since hidden far away, only looking at this side from a distance.
Zhang Feng kept his eyes on the cave creature, saying to the side and behind him to stop: “Don’t come over, don’t make trouble, I can’t take care of you.”
The moment the words fell, the strong man hadn’t reacted yet.
The cave creature in front of him pounced on Zhang Feng again.
This time, Zhang Feng didn’t slash horizontally, but swung his right arm, the blade tilted upwards, blocking all routes above.
‘Squeak!’ The cave creature used the same trick again, wanting to hook its tail onto the rock above.
At this time, Zhang Feng kicked off the wall behind him, suddenly leaping forward, the blade tilted upwards, slashing down from above in a backhand grip, towards its neck.
The cave creature barely turned its head, but a slight sound of flesh being cut still rang out from the skin on its neck.
Zhang Feng didn’t stop, and in the instant it dodged, he suddenly turned around in mid-air, using the strength of his waist, his left hand clenched into a cannon fist and punched out, ‘thud’ hitting its chest.
The feeling of flesh hitting flesh made Zhang Feng feel like he was hitting a thick piece of cowhide.
Its heart was hit, its strength scattered, and it couldn’t borrow any force in mid-air, tumbling to the ground with a crash.
Huff huff—
After it fell, it wanted to push itself up with its arms.
Zhang Feng quickly approached, his wrist turned, coming to the front of the cave creature, and struck out vertically, drawing a crescent moon in the dim light, beheading the cave creature.
The next second, its head and body fell to the ground.
Only the sound of blood flowing remained, and everything was quiet.
The people in the distance were also stunned in place.
Only the strong man took a few steps forward subconsciously, asking Zhang Feng: “You… you… aren’t injured, are you?”
The strong man’s voice trembled, not expecting Zhang Feng to actually kill a ‘monster’.
“I’m not injured.”
Zhang Feng wiped away the sticky blood that had splattered on his face, and swung his sore arms, “But I have to say, this thing is indeed quite intimidating, I almost fell for its flying and burrowing tricks.”
