Where's the Ginseng?

Editor: Henyee Translations

Qi Chen looked at his own body.

It was completely intact!

The part of the eggshell that was corroded by gastric acid had completely recovered during the advancement.

When Qi Chen wanted to check his status in excitement, he felt dizzy again.

This is bad… I was already very hungry before, and I didn't even have my fill yet. Now that I've leveled up, I'm even hungrier!

He quickly crawled forward and continuously bit the wound of the python.

Devouring its flesh.

Gradually, he felt full and his stamina started to recover.

I'll have another bite, then I shall leave.

[Prompt: Three hundred meters behind, one level-three demon beast has appeared!]

Hearing the system notification, Qi Chen didn't even swallow the meat in his mouth and ran away.

After witnessing the power of a level-three demon beast, he no longer dared to dawdle.

He disappeared into the distance.

He did not stop until the prompt from map scan vanished.

Fortunately, his speed was different from before. Otherwise, he might not have been able to escape.

Qi Chen hid under a pile of rubble and checked the status in front of him.

[Host: Qi Chen]

[Level: 1/10 (After reaching level 10, you will obtain a single qualification for super evolution)]

[Evolution: A tiger-striped egg with unknown significance]

[Talent: Armor of Thorns (When attacked, you can reflect 50% of damage back to the attacker)]

[Speed: 1/10]

[Defense: 1.7/10]

[Attack: 1/10]

[Enhancement Points: 0]

[Skill: Activated at level 2]

Qualification for super evolution? What's that? Could it be like those anime where I can break free from my egg body?

Qi Chen was puzzled.

However, he could not jump to conclusions yet. He would know once he evolved at level ten.

[Beep beep beep! Prompt: Two hundred meters ahead, two level-one mutated beasts have appeared!]

Mutated beast?

Qi Chen was surprised. What was that?

"As long as we can sell that 100-year-old ginseng, we will have the money to buy that bottle of poison!"

"Liu Fuxue is very beautiful. As long as we poison her parents to death, not only will Liu Fuxue be ours, even the Liu family will be ours!"

"It's been a long time since I've touched something so perfect. I can't wait!"

Qi Chen hid under the rubble and heard the conversation between the two humans.

"So mutated beasts refer to humans. That's true. I'm a demon beast now. Humans are mutated beasts to me!"

A cold light flickered in Qi Chen's eyes.

These two people were really vicious.

They actually wanted to kill her parents, steal the daughter, and take over the whole family.

Pui! It's really just two mutated beasts. I shall gladly accept your ginseng on your behalf!

Qi Chen crawled through the rubble and rolled forward. After a while, he saw a ginseng that was half buried in the ground.

Will I evolve after eating this thing? Or will I obtain enhancement points, or maybe a mission would be triggered?

He thought to himself.

However, he did not think much of it. He opened his mouth and bit down on the ginseng.

In any case, he couldn't let those two bastards have it!

After consuming the ginseng, the system notification sounded.

[Beep! The host has consumed one hundred-year-old ginseng, obtained 1 enhancement point!]

Hearing this voice, Qi Chen was overjoyed. These kinds of things were really effective for him!

This was an enhancement value of 1 point.

When he killed the level-one demon beast, Wild Tiger, he had only obtained 0.5 enhancement points.

If he wanted to obtain 1 enhancement point, he would probably have to kill a level-two demon beast.

That was not something the present Qi Chen could do.

What a huge bargain!

Qi Chen immediately added some points for himself.

He opened his status. The current stats were as follows.

[Speed: 1/10]

[Defense: 1.7/10]

[Attack: 1/10]

[Enhancement Points: 1]

After weighing the pros and cons, Qi Chen made a decision.

"Speed +0.5, Defense +0.3, Attack +0.2."

As an egg, in a situation where he lacked offensive means, he had to first push up his defense.

Remember he still had the talent [Armor of Thorns] to reflect damage.

Therefore, defense and speed were still the most important attributes to add points to.

After adding the points, the data changed.

[Speed: 1.5/10]

[Defense: 2/10]

[Attack: 1.2/10]

[Enhancement Points: 0]

My defense has reached the standard of a level two, and my speed is rather fast among the level ones. My attack can also threaten demon beasts of the same level!

Qi Chen chuckled.

The enhancement point obtained from eating the ginseng had opened up his mind.

Since he couldn't afford to offend those high-level demon beasts, he could look for treasures to eat. After all, eating treasures can give him enhancement points too.

As long as he increased his defense and speed, he would not be afraid even if he encountered demon beasts of the same level or ones that were slightly higher.

In any case, the shell was thick, durable and could even trigger a damage reflection talent.

When the time came, his opponent would not be able to hit him or chase him away. Even if they chased him, they would not be able to catch up and be very infuriated.

Footsteps approached.

The two mutated beasts are here.

Qi Chen did not stay for long. He rolled forward and slipped away.

"Did a big rat scamper over just now?"

"Are you sure? Oh no, the ginseng is gone!"

The two moved aside the pile of rocks and saw a pit with several torn ginseng roots on the side.

"It must have been eaten by that rat!"

"How bold! He even dares to eat the ginseng that I had set my eyes on! Get it!"

"It must have just eaten the ginseng. It definitely hasn't digested it yet! If we capture it and cut open its stomach, we might be able to save it!"

[Prompt: Two hundred meters ahead, one level-two demon beast has appeared!]

Hmph, if you want to lay your hands on me, I'll teach you a lesson!

Qi Chen's body swung, sending a rock flying. He then made a sharp turn and went in a different direction.

The rock flew far away and the sound of it falling on the ground attracted the level-two demon beast that was wandering about.

The two humans had also chased after him after him at the same time.

"Not good! It's a level-two demon beast, Bloodthirsty Wolf!"

"Run!"

The two humans were scared out of their wits and turned to flee.

"Auwuuu—"

Faint and green light appeared in the bloodthirsty wolf's eyes. With a roar, it got up and chased after them.

"Hurhur, why aren't you acting brave anymore?"

Qi Chen jumped onto a huge rock and sneered as he listened to the screams that gradually faded away.

"Improving my strength is more important. Let's go look for treasures!"

He turned and rolled deeper into the forest.

There were many powerful demon beasts residing in the depths of the forest. It was extremely dangerous, but danger was also accompanied by more opportunities.

Qi Chen dared to go because he had the map scan function of the system and could detect danger. He didn't feel too pressured.

[Prompt: Three hundred meters ahead, one level-three demon beast and two ordinary demon beasts have appeared!]

Qi Chen turned around and left.

[Prompt: Three hundred meters to the right, one level-three demon beast has appeared!]

Oh my god!

Qi Chen slammed on the brakes and immediately rolled to the left.

But before he could get out of the scanning range of the map, two different roars could be heard clearly.

Wait… Could it be that these two demon beasts are fighting!?

Qi Chen's heart thumped.

The two demon beasts really started fighting.

I'll sneak over to take a look. If I have the chance to snatch the kill, I'll be rich!
