[Divine Extraction of the corpse has been successful. Obtained: agility +0.1, F-grade skill “Rapid Step”!]
[Divine Extraction of the corpse has been successful. Obtained: spirit +0.1, E-grade skill “Spirit Vision”!]
Exactly as Liu Yan had suspected, he gained only minimal attribute boosts, yet he could acquire skills from the remains of humans!
Overjoyed, Liu Yan quickly examined these newly acquired abilities.
[Rapid Step]
[Grade: F]
[Effect: Upon activation, your agility doubles.]
[Spirit Vision]
[Grade: E]
[Effect: Passive skill. It allows you to sharply sense a limited area nearby and steer clear of threats.]
Upon viewing these two abilities, Liu Yan felt immediate delight.
Thanks to “Rapid Step,” his movements would become far swifter.
Should he confront the blood wolf once more, even at full strength, Liu Yan was confident he could triumph without much effort.
Indeed, he could use “Rapid Step” to evade the blood wolf’s strikes, then counterattack effectively.
Moreover, if faced with a formidable creature beyond his capabilities, “Rapid Step” would enable a swift getaway.
Regarding “Spirit Vision,” it served as a perceptive passive ability.
Liu Yan focused his awareness briefly. Through the E-grade Spirit Vision, he could vaguely detect surroundings up to roughly fifty meters, offering a substantial scope.
This ability would greatly ease his navigation in this realm.
Liu Yan was on the verge of inspecting the novice gear from the two bodies when his Spirit Vision alerted him to several individuals drawing near from the west.
It appeared to be members of the same group, now returning to clash with the severely wounded blood wolf.
No matter, the potential upgrades from a handful of starter items were limited regardless. To sidestep any disputes, departing promptly was wiser.
Thus, Liu Yan headed off in the contrary direction right away.
Shortly after Liu Yan’s departure, a squad mostly formed by F-grade talent Awakened returned aggressively, weapons at the ready, intent on avenging themselves against the blood wolf in a fierce confrontation.
Yet, upon arriving back at the spot, they found the blood wolf collapsed on the earth, its fresh blood spilling forth.
“How odd, did the blood wolf perish from its earlier wounds?”
“No, that doesn’t fit,” one Awakened stepped up to inspect, “Fresh cuts cover it, concentrated mainly on the skull. Another person slew this blood wolf ahead of us, and it looks like a lone individual did it!”
“A single person finished the dying blood wolf?”
The remaining Awakened reacted with profound astonishment upon hearing this.
Though the blood wolf was nearing its end, its might remained formidable. Earlier, even their group of seven or eight couldn’t overcome it, resulting in two deaths and several injuries.
But somehow, another had single-handedly dispatched this beast?
“Who possesses such strength?”
“Finishing the blood wolf solo—isn’t that incredibly impressive?!”
“The difference between that individual and us is immense, right? We couldn’t defeat it even together, but he handled it alone.”
“That person has to be at least a B-grade talent Awakened to wield such power, don’t you think?”
“...”
The group of Awakened buzzed with shock and lively chatter.
Meanwhile, the very person they discussed, Liu Yan, employed his Spirit Vision to navigate the expansive woods effortlessly. He deftly avoided beasts sequentially, biding his time for the next scavenging prospect.
Still, after journeying for a considerable distance, Liu Yan spotted no alerts on his smart wristband about any Awakened fatalities.
These Awakened seemed overly cautious of dying, steering clear of beast encounters, which left Liu Yan without opportunities to gather remains.
Having wandered extensively, Liu Yan grew somewhat fatigued. He thus scaled a towering tree and perched on a limb to recuperate.
Concurrently, he accessed his status panel to review the progress achieved since entering the Tower merely half a day prior.
[Liu Yan]
[Level: ]
[HP: 150/150]
[MP: 85/105]
[Strength (attack): 14.1]
[Vitality (defense): 13]
[Agility (speed) : 14.1]
[Spirit (mana): 13.1]
[Adaptability (magic resistance): 12]
[Luck (probability): 43]
[Talent: Divine Extraction (SSS-grade), usage times available: 1/5 (CD will refresh by one every hour)
[Skills: Strength Enhancement (D-grade), Rapid Step (F-grade), Spirit Vision (E-grade)]
[Equipment: Federation Defense Equipment Set (E-grade), Federation Special Dagger (E-grade)]
His stats had advanced substantially, and his arsenal of gear and abilities had expanded notably.
Beyond that, Liu Yan observed that Divine Extraction carried a cap of five uses, replenishing one per hour. At present, just one remained.
Luckily, he hadn’t squandered it on random plants earlier; that would’ve been foolish.
Liu Yan inwardly celebrated his fortune.
That said, he anticipated the SSS-grade Divine Extraction talent held far greater potential. Undoubtedly, it concealed additional potent features awaiting his discovery through personal trial.
After some time passed, no fresh death notices for Awakened appeared, denying further chances to scavenge.
Evaluating his capabilities, Liu Yan recognized significant growth. He ought to handle level one beasts with ease now.
Even in unforeseen circumstances, Rapid Step allowed escape, likely sparing him harm or demise from any beast.
Accordingly, Liu Yan resolved to proactively hunt beasts himself.
After all, scavenging served merely as a cautious initial strategy for building power. It wasn’t destined to define Liu Yan’s ongoing approach.
The clash with the blood wolf had enlightened Liu Yan that true mastery demanded not just robust stats, gear, and skills, but also honed combat methods and instincts, forged solely through beastly skirmishes.
Repeated immersion in bloodshed and combat was essential to forge those techniques and awareness—no detours existed.
Having pondered this, Liu Yan drew his dagger. He leaped from the tree and roamed the woodland, seeking an appropriate beast to fell.
