Motivation Gift package

Li Xian decided to deal with his body issues later, as what the system said was also true for living in this harsh environment.

"System! What are you waiting for? Give me a cultivation technique or something already. I don't want to waste too much time, or else I don't know whether I am able to survive tomorrow or not."

Li Xian said in his mind as he thought of this poor guy, who was predicted to die in a gruesome manner by the system.

He felt that if he were to act as a decoy with his current strength, he probably would die in the same manner as this guy was supposed to die.

'Ding! The host's cultivation process doesn't need any cultivation techniques. What the host is going to cultivate is body cultivation, and the host doesn't need to do any exercises. As long as the host kills a living organism, the system will provide the host with body attributes accordingly.'

The system explained mechanically, making Li Xian's face light up with surprise. He doesn't need to do any tedious cultivation, just killing a living organism will give him attributes to train or strengthen his body, which, according to him, is pretty awesome.

He then looked at the ant that was coming toward him before swatting it. The ant is completely deader than dead, but Li Xian didn't receive any notification that he was waiting for, which kind of confused him.

'Ding! The major requirement for the host to get any rewards for killing a living organism is that the organism needs to have at least one-third of the host's weight. Then again, the killing process and the host's contribution are the second requirement. The third requirement is where that particular living organism stands on the food chain. When all of them are calculated, the host will be distributed with the attributes accordingly.'

The system slowly explained itself as it observed Li Xian's thought process.

Li Xian, on the other hand, felt that someone was forcefully drawing out the honey that he just felt in his mouth.

"System! How am I going to survive whatever they are planning for tomorrow? If I can't become stronger, I am just sending myself off with the strength that I have right now. Do you want me to escape from here in this goddamned unknown place? With the body I have, I don't think I can survive another day out there. You aren't expecting me any of that shit right?"

Li Xian complained after hearing the system's explanation about his 'cultivation' process.

He knows that it is a good one, but he at least needs to have some strength to be able to kill anything, right? In this place, everything looks like 'war machines', as they have evolved to survive such environments.

Every day and for every living organism, it's a daily struggle to survive in the jungles. The strong prey on the weaker ones, while the even stronger ones prey on the strong ones. Not to mention the anomalies, where the weakest band together to kill the strong ones.

Anything can happen at any time, and Li Xian obviously doesn't know what is out there in this normal environment. He is just thinking of the animals in the forests that he saw on the Discovery Channel.

'Ding! The host doesn't have to worry. As this is the host's first time here, the system is initiating a motivational gift package. Please check your inventory host.'

The system voice came at last, as though it thought for a moment before issuing a reward. Of course, a smile slowly bloomed on the fat face of Li Xian, but if anyone looks at him, they will never understand whether he is smiling or crying from the minimal moments on his fat face.

'Ding! Opening the host's personal panel. In the future, the host just needs to command the system to open it again.'

The system's voice sounded again before a panel appeared in front of Li Xian.

Personal Panel:

Host: Li Xian

Life span: 21/70

Strength: 0.8

Agility: 0.6

Treasury: Motivational Gift Package

Note: Ordinary people in this era have stats around 1.

"Too weak at such a prime age. And that agility can be considered quite good for this kind of body. And how the heck is the lifespan only around 70? But again, these people don't even know when they are going to die, and all the old people who may have survived to this age by chance or luck will probably be left behind once their functionalities stopped working properly."

Li Xian commented to himself as he saw his stats. This new body of his is only around 175 cm on a rough guess, and with too much weight, he obviously looked a bit shorter than his original height looks.

Still, his body should have a lot of strength compared to what it has now. Not to mention, both are bulky guys, they probably have their stats over 1. And the biggest one may even reach 2 points in his strength.

Li Xian's guess is quite accurate regarding that, as these two bulky guys are one of the main hunters of their band. And his guess regarding the old people is also true, as no one has the capability or ability to support old folk, even if they are relatives, in this mad world.

Usually, those who are too old to move anymore will be put to death by their family members, and that is a tradition in their band and also in almost all other bands.

"System! open the 'Motivational Gift Package." Li Xian said as he decided to increase his strength before deciding to proceed with any other actions here. He doesn't know why, but he feels that death is looming everywhere around him.

'Ding! Motivational gift packaging is opening... Three free attributes, one side skill, and one active skill are rewarded to the host. The host can distribute the attributes accordingly, and skills will be stored in the treasury, and the host can choose two to learn them anytime.'

The system issued the rewards, which were a bit less than what Li Xian expected from the first gift package he received. He expected at least 10 free attributes and 10 years of life span, or else how can he survive for one million years if there are no life span rewards?

'Ding! The host is cultivating your body so that, as the host gets stronger, your life energy will increase over time. The host's first life span increment will happen when the host's overall attributes rise to 100.'

The system again explained, just as he had thought of it. He felt this system was prying into his privacy a bit too much, but he didn't or couldn't do anything about that, as he felt the bond between them was kind of life and death. If one side dies, the other side won't survive, which gives him a bit of comfort.

Li Xian waited for a moment as he thought about how to distribute the attributes to his stats. He thought of the event that was going to happen tomorrow, finally deciding to distribute more stats on his agility first.

"Systeme! Add the three free attributes to my agility. And also open my personal panel." Li Xian said, after finally deciding what to do.

He thought there would be some confirmation voice from the system asking him to 'confirm' but he didn't hear an utterance from it. But soon a black panel appeared in front of him with his stats cleanly written in white.

Personal Panel:

Host: Li Xian

Life span: 21/70

Strength: 0.8

Agility: 3.6

Treasury: Side Skill: Insight, Active Skill: Bronze body.

Note: Ordinary people in this era have stats around 1.

"System! Can you provide me with the description for those two skills?" Li Xian asked, confused, as he saw that he was unable to see their descriptions.

'Ding! The host just needs to concentrate and think about them to see the details.' The system's voice came again, with a suggestion this time instead of directly peeling the banana for Li Xian.

Li Xian also didn't complain about anything and directly followed the system's suggestion. Soon, two separate sections appeared on the black screen with the details of those two skills.

Insight: Side Skill

Description:

1. Able to see through any living organism's stats, as long as one intends to see. Users can activate this skill by simply thinking about it, and inactivating it is also done with a simple thought.

2. When a user is actively using this skill, the user can see the red spots on the living organisms. The darker the red spot, the greater the weakness that particular living organism has there. Users can also simply deactivate the stats display and use this skill completely separately.

Bronze body: active skill

Description: The user will gain three times the original strength the user has in their strength attribute when this skill is activated.

Time limit: 5 seconds.

Restriction: Can only use it once a day.

"Damn! These two skills are exactly what I lack now. This insight skill will help me avoid strong animals and at the same time provide me with insight into their weaknesses so I can kill them quickly. While the bronze body provides me with the strength that I lack right now."

Li Xian, who added all his attributes to his agility, was thought to deal with the beast in some unconventional ways, as he didn't know exactly what its strength was. But he should always keep the chance to be able to run away first.

Now all his worries are solved with these two skills. He couldn't help but quickly decide to learn them, even though he felt the restrictions and time limit for the active skill were a bit 'harsh'.

Personal Panel:

Host: Li Xian

Life span: 21/70

Strength: 0.8

Agility: 3.6

Treasury: None.

Skills: insight and bronze body.

Note: Ordinary people in this era have stats around 1.

"Whoop! Let's try my insight skill first and practice it for some time." Li Xian said to himself as he finally felt 'fully geared'.
