Survival For All: I, Aura Creator

Chapter 34 Aura Upgrade (Please Collect!)

"Open the Aura panel."

Ning Ze didn't rush to dissect the sleepy rabbit, but first opened the talent page.

[Aura]: [Perseverance (Ⅰ)], [Midas Touch (Ⅰ)], [Versatile (Ⅰ)], [Treasure Trove (Ⅰ)], [Bloodbath (Ⅰ)], [Healing Prohibition (Ⅰ)], [Psychologist (Ⅰ)], [Iron Will (Ⅰ)], [Golden Shield (Ⅰ)], [Crisis Awareness (Ⅰ)], [Night Owl (Ⅰ)], [Academic Genius (Ⅰ)], [Armor Breaker (Ⅰ)], [Escapist (Ⅰ)], [Master Builder (Ⅰ)].

Current Origin Value: 1463 points.

Looking at the fifteen Auras he had unconsciously created, and the four-digit Origin Value, he felt wealthy.

It could be said that each of these Auras was Ning Ze's treasure.

The special products of logging, whether it was fire-resistant wood or coal and flint, brought him incalculable benefits.

It seemed that he could easily and abundantly obtain these special products in the entire world.

So, for the upgraded Aura... let's go with [Midas Touch]!

[Perseverance] is good, but unfortunately, the points required to upgrade to level two Aura are three times that of [Midas Touch (Ⅰ)], a whopping 2400 points!

On the other hand, [Midas Touch] is practical, cost-effective, and only requires 800 points of the current Origin Value to upgrade to level two.

He just didn't know what the effect would be after the upgrade, and as he invested a large amount of Origin Value, Ning Ze felt a pang of pain.

800 points... that's the amount of several Level 1 Auras.

Hopefully, Midas Touch will be powerful enough.

[Aura upgrade successful, obtained [Midas Touch (Ⅱ)].

[Midas Touch (Ⅱ)]: A touch of the hand, materials surge; every time ordinary materials are harvested, there is a 100% chance of obtaining materials of the same kind with special quality, and a 1% chance of obtaining Transcendent materials.

"Transcendent items, what are those? But the probability is a bit low, only one percent."

After the Aura upgrade, the triggering probability increased, and a new effect of unclear significance was added.

Without much ado, Ning Ze proficiently began dissecting the sleepy rabbit.

[Obtained 1360g of sleepy rabbit meat (inedible), 1630g of delicious rabbit meat after pounding (edible), one rabbit hide, and obtained an additional Transcendent material: Anti-fatigue boiled rabbit heart, gaining 6 survival points, and absorbing 5 times the current Origin Value.]

"Wow, didn't expect to obtain a Transcendent item on the first try. Is it a coincidence or just good luck?"

Ning Ze was pleasantly surprised, but quickly checked the introduction of this Transcendent material.

[Anti-fatigue boiled rabbit heart]: After consumption, will not feel fatigued for three hours.

What a great item!

It's perfect for grinding. Like a treasure, he put the rabbit heart back in his backpack, ready to take it out to eat at a more suitable time in the future.

After checking the traps around the yard with Fenrir, not a single one of the sixteen traps had been triggered, indicating a peaceful night.

Returning to the yard, he watered the newly planted tomato tree a bit, and unexpectedly, there was a harvest in the wild chicken coop, with four eggs appearing.

[Obtained 2 wild chicken eggs (inedible), 2 domestic chicken eggs, gaining 4 survival points.]

"The harvest from breeding can actually trigger [Midas Touch]. It seems like I should focus more on animal husbandry in the future."

Currently, there are only two wild chickens being bred, laying eggs approximately every three days. It would be difficult to rely solely on these two chickens to achieve egg self-sufficiency.

He had no idea what wild chickens ate, as he couldn't find a single bug in the soil around here.

After some thought, Ning Ze decided to throw a small piece of inedible monster meat into the chicken coop from his backpack.

To his surprise, the two wild chickens pecked at the meat as if they had found a treasure, eagerly devouring it.

"They eat meat?"

"Each chicken eats about fifty grams of meat, but considering they lay an egg every three days, it seems like a small loss."

"Oh no! Did I just feed them chicken meat?"

Ning Ze suddenly noticed a chicken leg bone on the piece of monster meat he had cut, indicating that the other player had tasted the chicken leg before exchanging it for wood with him, which lowered his sanity and led to the exchange.

"Do wild chickens eat chicken meat... is it okay?"

Ning Ze thought uncertainly.

[Cutlery with my sixth uncle, tastes great; Imported by my second aunt, tastes strange; Pan-fried by my old grandma, tastes elegant; Bacon from a distant relative, zero calories and low fat; Mushroom stewed by my grandma, mesmerizes Wang Junkai; Bragging by my third aunt, so delicious it makes you cry; My third aunt was a bit sweet yesterday, my sixth uncle used less salt today.]

Oh no... I can't hold it in anymore.

Ning Ze scratched his head. The wild chicken's usual diet certainly wouldn't be like this, but for now, he had no choice but to feed them meat. After all, he had plenty of inedible meat in his backpack, and he could feed them other monster meat.

The wild chicken that was missing a piece of the puzzle: No!!! My uncle!!! (Comical)

He was running low on ironwood in his backpack, and since he had stocked up a lot of meat, he could go to the peculiar big tree to chop some ironwood.

Heading in the direction of the peculiar big tree, the familiar tree soon came into view.

"Last time, the peculiar big tree said it only needed a pat to wake up, but since it eats meat, it's better to wake it up with an iron axe just to be safe."

Peculiar tree: I, Sun Wukong...%&%￥%!

Survival in the wild was full of danger, and Ning Ze had to think twice. He then used the iron axe to give the peculiar giant tree a hit.

Peculiar giant tree: .

"Offer to me, and I can tell you everything you want to know."

Ning Ze had over sixty pounds of inedible meat in his backpack. Considering that Fenrir and the two wild chickens at home both ate meat, and there might be a need for meat in the future, he directly cut thirty pounds of meat and threw it onto the roots of the peculiar big tree.

Instantly, green smoke rose, and in an instant, the thirty pounds of meat turned into a pile of incredibly foul rotten meat.

It has quite the appetite!

Ning Ze didn't feel too sorry, and then cut three hundred grams of edible meat and threw it over.

This time, just like last time, the branches of the peculiar giant tree began to shake violently, as if it was enjoying the tremors.

"What do you want to know?" the peculiar giant tree asked.

Ning Ze thought for a moment and said, "Today, I want to go to a location 1,200 meters northwest. Tell me about the situation over there."

"Someone like you!"

When the peculiar giant tree said this, Ning Ze clearly paused.

He had thought about this possibility yesterday, but there were very few instances of players encountering each other and cooperating in the chat channel, so he believed that the distance between most players would be very far.

No!

Players could also engage in combat with each other, and encounters between them would be more common.

Although Ning Ze didn't want to think too darkly about this world, in this survival environment, human nature often couldn't withstand the test.

"The other party has also discovered you!"

When the peculiar giant tree spoke again, Ning Ze felt a chill in his heart.

When he saw the smoke rising yesterday, it was already around five o'clock in the afternoon, and at that time, the other party couldn't possibly have taken the risk to come to his location.

So the other party should have discovered his presence a long time ago, and that smoke was very likely deliberately created to attract his attention.

"So what does the other party want to do? Since they've found me, why use this method to get my attention?"

Abababa
