Mysterious Hunting Ground

Chapter 98 98. Expertise upgrade, harvest

kitchen.

Dean on the stove threw away a half-eaten cabbage, grabbed the beef in the plastic box, and put it into his mouth desperately.

The steel teeth chewed lightly, crushing the meat and swallowing it into the stomach.

Without a single pause.

Throwing away the empty bloody plastic box, Dean grabbed the hot steak that was sizzling with oil in the frying pan beside him, and started to gnaw on it no matter how cooked it was.

The frantic eating lasted for half an hour.

After eliminating a large pile of vegetables and ten pounds of raw beef steak, Dean finally filled the black hole in his stomach, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth stained with oil and blood.

"Hi... Fortunately, Stone's menu not only includes the same kind, but also a lot of fresh food, otherwise I would starve to death."

Before and after the simulation, the blood and energy that have passed away will not be recovered out of thin air. What is lost will eventually be replaced, and the only way to rely on food is to eat.

From this breeds a terrible appetite for gluttony.

"In the future, bring some high-calorie supplies before the battle."

However, the simulation is more strategic than he expected. If he can transform smoothly when he is seriously injured and dying, he can continue his life.

……

After resting for a while to digest, Dean's attention returned to the system——

Withdraw rewards.

Experience +150,

个人等级：lv2(290/300)→lv3（140/400）

Gain 1 attribute point.

The taskbar is expanded to 2.

System ability God's perspective lv1→lv2: range 10 meters→20 meters.

……

You killed the Nocturnal Wesvine, please choose one of the following four special rewards:
A．Specialty Junior Ironman is upgraded to Intermediate Ironman:

The effect of physique attributes on you, including vitality, endurance, physical fitness and injury recovery speed, anti-strike ability, digestion, nutrient absorption, and resistance to physical abnormal states, all increase by 30.00% → 50.00%.

In addition, your immunity and lifespan get an additional small increase.

It is difficult for common diseases and bad living habits to invade your body and damage your health. At the same time, you will live longer than ordinary people, and the speed of aging will slow down slightly.

……

B．Specialty Junior Iron Man mutates into Junior Night Walker, gaining a moderate increase:

The gain effect of physique attribute on you is increased by 30.00% → 70.00%.

Your immunity is greatly increased making you immune to common diseases.

At the same time, your life expectancy is doubled compared to ordinary people, and the aging speed is greatly slowed down. Your appearance, physical fitness, energy, and mind will remain in the prime state of a young and middle-aged man, and will not rapidly age and weaken until the end of your life span.

But power is a double-edged sword. With stronger power, you have to pay a corresponding price:
An abnormal appetite will be born in your body, you will regard the flesh and blood of the same kind as a delicacy, digest a powerful target, and absorb part of his power.

But the same kind of flesh and blood is not necessary, you can still survive on ordinary food.

You will be afraid of the sun, the sun will not kill you, but will weaken your physical fitness.

……

C．Superpower - Superior Smell (Perception): Your sense of smell against humanoids is greatly enhanced.

You can easily distinguish thousands of different body odors between different individuals, and judge their physical health, strength, and the people they have killed and the food they have eaten through the smell, so as to track the target.

The effect of super smell is positively related to the skill level and your perception attribute.

Every time the skill is improved, the perception is slightly improved.

(Note: Your ability bar is full, you cannot choose this reward)
D．Increase your Wisdom by 1 point.

……

"Great reward."

Dean circled the messy kitchen with his fists clenched, his face flushed slightly with excitement, the suffering of being poked out several holes before was worth it.

Since time travel, the specialty of Iron Man has given him a huge boost, allowing him to devote more energy to training, grow rapidly, recover from injuries faster, and face crises more tenaciously.

Its importance is beyond doubt.

What's more, this feat also adds other effects-resistance to disease and increase lifespan.

Although Dean is not yet 20 years old, who would dislike living too long?
Dean struggles for a moment between A and B.

Compared with A, B has been enhanced in all directions, free from disease, and forever young until death.

But unfortunately, there are two more terrible negative effects.

……

At present, as a lone ranger, Dean is more inclined to develop in an all-round way. After all, there will be more time in the future, and there will be more opportunities to gain strength this time.

If you choose B eager for quick success and quick benefits, you will find two weaknesses for yourself, especially the fear of the sun, which will be extremely detrimental to your future development.

……

Reluctantly rule out B.

Dean paid a little attention to C.

In his opinion, the biggest function of the super sense of smell is not for tracking, but that it can smell out the number of humanoid creatures killing or eating the same kind.

This allows Dean to pick out a special individual from a bunch of normal people: killers, criminals, monsters, or other supernatural entities...

He will have the first mover advantage.

And the super smell upgrade can also improve perception, which has growth potential, but unfortunately his ability column is 5/5.

I don't know how to improve it.

……

As for D, at the current stage, the priority of directly adding attributes is ranked after feats and skills. Unless you add three or four points at once, Dean will not consider it.

……

Choose A.

Ironman feat upgrade.

Dean thought for a moment.

A pleasant hot current gushed out from somewhere in the body, rushing to the muscles, bones, ten fingertips... covering the whole body.

But the response came quickly and quickly.

Disappeared after one breath, Dean closed his eyes, his body was warm as if there was a stove nearby.

Others also became comfortable and relaxed, as if soaking in a magical hot spring, the hot spring water washed away all the ailments and hidden diseases in the body.

Some minor ailments of the body disappeared forever.

The corner of his mouth curled up.

A faint joy of expanding the essence of life and leaping in the level of life surged in my heart.

Lifespan and immunity have been slightly enhanced, and Dean's skin has become smoother, more delicate, and more radiant.

He touched his face.

"Now if there is no accident, I can live to be a hundred years old, but I don't know if I can live to 2077?"

……

The sun began to set to the west, the sunlight outside the window became less dazzling, and the time quietly came to four o'clock in the afternoon.

After tidying up his harvest, Dean returned to the bedroom.

The Shidong family was worried about their evil deeds being leaked, so there were no outsiders in the old house except them, which made it easier for Dean.

……

Dean dug out a black suit in the closet and changed out of the bloody clothes that were full of holes.

Then he picked up the plank from the ashes, sat on the torn apart bed, and felt the soul of the dead just absorbed.

"Kristen, Perron, Hedson, Layton, Shannon...huh?"

"Where does the soul of the nocturnal species go?"

There are only five souls of the Stone family in the gillboard, which does not reach the upper limit of ten souls in the gillboard, so it should be able to hold the West Vine.

but no.

Dean couldn't figure it out.

Before that, the shackles could even absorb the souls of the Death Eaters, so why did they lose their effect on the souls of nocturnal species?

A cold wind suddenly blew in from the window.

Vaguely, the words of Weisten before his death were sent in the wind——

"Midean is the paradise of monsters,"

"The resting place of my soul."

……

"Did the Gorgon's soul return to Midian?"

This magical thought came to Dean's mind, and his eyes flashed past the sides of the tunnel, the densely packed tombstones on the murals, and the intricate underground kingdom hidden under the cemetery.

What kind of place is Monster Paradise Midian?
Besides this snake-haired monster who is afraid of sunlight and eats people without blinking an eye, what kind of humanoid monsters live there?

According to Tyme, the more supernatural beings gather, the more dangerous they are.

Wouldn't Kamidian cause terrible supernatural disasters because of the law of convergence?

Countless doubts came to mind.

Dean had an extremely strong desire to explore, took the shackles and changed to a dark room, and summoned the souls of the five hunters of Stone's family one by one.

I tortured them all according to the old method, and asked for more information about Midian and the Nocturnal Species.

Unfortunately nothing.

He tortured again about the whereabouts of valuable possessions in the old house, and the innocents they had eaten in the past.

Swing the shaman board, and send five people away from their souls.

“你杀死了幽灵*5…熟练度+1*5，格斗lv2(95→100/300)。”

Dean came to a study on the right.

He dug out a key from the hundreds of books on the bookshelf, and pulled out the black safe in the filing cabinet on the desk.

Turn three times.

"5, 4, 1"

Click.

The key is inserted into the lock and turned.

After a crisp click, Dean opened the safe.

A strong golden light shot out, making him dizzy, and his entire face was stained with gold.

"bullion."

He reached out and took out a trapezoidal gold bar and weighed it, the standard 3.74 ounces.

In addition to the gold bars, the safe was also stuffed with bunches of dollars and a bunch of photos of some of the victims who were hunted by the Stone family, with their addresses and names written on them.

Dean had to admire the boldness of this family, which had harmed so many people, and dared to leave evidence.

……

In the end, he counted, and there were almost 100 gold bars in the safe, and nearly 20 dollars in bundles of one-hundred-dollar knives.

The two are worth a total of four hundred thousand dollars.

Although Dean is not a money-hungry person, facing the windfall in front of him, he did not hesitate at all, and quickly confiscated it all into the black backpack.

But next to the green dollar and the dazzling gold, there are several golden invitation cards with a red lizard with spread wings faintly embossed on the surface, oh no, a red dragon, and two hollow English letters DR are inlaid on the cover, like Suffocating as a work of art.

Dean opened it and saw that there was nothing in the invitation, and there was no record.

"An invitation card for an event or a venue? Why is there no time, no location, and no other description."

Dean looked regretful,

If he had known this, he would not have directly destroyed the five souls. Now he could only collect the invitations and clean up the traces in the house.

……

In the middle of the night, he quietly left the manor and returned with a full load.
