Kill Points

After the doctor left, Lin Qi rolled over and got out of the hospital bed.

Looking at his arms, which seemed to have white armbands on each side, Lin Qi smiled helplessly.

He didn't know what the doctor had applied inside, but it was itchy.

Recalling this battle, he secretly became vigilant. He needed to train his stamina well, otherwise, he couldn't even maintain Geppo for long. He also needed to bring forward his close-combat techniques as soon as possible.

Facing those powerful pirates, he was still too weak.

Listening to the earth-shattering snores of his fellow patients in the same ward, Lin Qi gradually became annoyed and decided to go for a walk.

Taking advantage of the night, he came to the Deck and found an unexpected person there.

Zephyr had lost the fierce aura he had when dealing with pirates, and looked much older. He leaned against the railing alone, staring blankly at the moon in the sky.

At this moment... he looked like a twilight old man.

Lin Qi deliberately made some noise, causing Zephyr to look up from his sorrow. "It's Lin Qi."

"Teacher Zephyr, why aren't you sleeping so late?"

"I'm old, I don't sleep much, I just came out to see the night view."

After saying this, a long silence fell between them.

After a while, Zephyr suddenly took out a Number Tag from his pocket and handed it to Lin Qi. "You can't sleep in the ward, right? It was the same when I was young. Go to this room and rest well."

Lin Qi took the Number Tag, opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself. In the end, he didn't say anything and turned to leave.

Following the number on the Number Tag, he found the room. Just as he inserted the key, the door next to him creaked open.

Hina's lovely little head poked out. Seeing it was Lin Qi, she nodded and then retracted it.

"This girl is still not sleeping so late..."

He pushed open the door. It was a standard room with only a bed, a desk, and a chair.

Lin Qi lay on the soft bed, let out a long sigh, closed his eyes, and began to recall every detail of the battle, analyzing it carefully.

Making mistakes was not scary, but falling in the same place twice meant he hadn't learned his lesson.

"Dong~ Dong dong~"

Just as Lin Qi was drowsily about to fall asleep, a sudden knock on the door sounded, accompanied by Hina's melodious voice, "Are you asleep? If not, open the door."

"Hina? What is she doing up so late at night?"

Lin Qi groggily opened the door and saw Hina standing at the door with a tray full of food.

Hina raised the tray and smiled, "Does your arm still hurt? I saw you didn't come for dinner tonight, so you must be hungry."

Grumble~

At that moment, Lin Qi's stomach let out an untimely growl.

He hadn't eaten anything for nine hours, not to mention he'd been through a fierce battle during that time.

Lin Qi didn't feel embarrassed. "Now that you mention it, I am quite hungry. Thank you."

He moved aside, allowing Hina to place the food on the table.

Seeing that Hina didn't leave after putting down the food, Lin Qi was surprised. "Why aren't you leaving?"

"I... I'll leave after you're done eating," Hina said hesitantly, her voluptuous figure standing by the table.

"Alright, suit yourself."

Since Hina brought the food, he couldn't refuse such a small request.

They say beauty is a feast for the eyes, and indeed, looking at a beautiful woman made him feel more appetizing.

The meal was simple but plentiful: seven large white steamed buns and a big bowl of steaming hot Mixed Vegetable Soup.

People in this world had large appetites; powerful individuals could often consume hundreds of times their body weight in food at once.

Lin Qi picked up a large white bun and started eating. It was big, soft, and fluffy, with a sweet and delicious taste.

However, because the buns were heated, the center was a bit cool, not fully heated through.

But when you're starving, anything tastes like a delicacy. He ate the buns with great satisfaction.

Hina watched from the side, a smile playing on her lips.

"Ugh..." While eating, Lin Qi's eyes suddenly widened, and he kept pounding his chest.

"Drink some soup."

Lin Qi was choking badly at that moment. He didn't notice the hint of anticipation in Hina's voice. He grabbed the large bowl and gulped down a couple of mouthfuls.

"Ah~ I'm alive again."

Lin Qi let out a long sigh, then frowned, smacked his lips uncertainly, and took another sip.

"I bet the Chef who made this soup is a relative of Rear Admiral Mole."

"Why? Is the soup that delicious?" Hina asked with a smile.

"No, if someone can make soup this terrible and not get fired, they must have connections."

Hina's smile froze on her face.

"Bad, there's killing intent!"

Lin Qi suddenly stood up from his chair, searching for the source of the killing intent, and finally locked onto Hina.

"Did you make this soup?" Lin Qi asked uncertainly. Hina nodded.

"First time cooking?" Lin Qi asked again. Hina nodded once more.

Lin Qi understood and sat back down, picking up the mixed vegetable soup. He gulped it down in one go.

Seeing this, Hina let out a chuckle. She bent down to clear the dishes, saying softly, "If it's not good, you don't have to drink it. Look at you."

Although Hina said this, the upturned corners of her mouth proved she was in a good mood.

Hina's figure was already exceptionally good, and now, as she bent down to clear things, her already full chest looked even more spectacular.

Lin Qi, who had already eaten his fill, felt as if he was hungry again.

"Women are truly cute creatures," Lin Qi thought, looking at the object his hand couldn't grasp.

"Alright, you should rest early. I'm leaving." Hina picked up the tray and left the room with light steps.

The soldiers on the warship's lookout post fought off their drowsiness, remaining on alert, while Lin Qi had already fallen asleep.

The returning warship was not as urgent as when it was traveling. It wasn't until the next day, when the sky was bright, that the group returned to Marine Headquarters.

Lin Qi, waking up, was pleasantly surprised to find that his arm no longer hurt. He removed the bandage and saw that the bloody wound had already healed, leaving no scar.

"This is great. It seems my body has adapted to this world."

In the Pirate World, a powerful appetite was matched by a powerful recovery ability.

As long as you didn't lose a limb, any serious injury could be recovered from extremely quickly once you were full.

Some peculiar individuals could even regrow a lost tooth by drinking a bottle of milk within five seconds.

After casually moving his arm a few times, Lin Qi followed the main group off the ship.

The moment his body touched land, the system's voice rang out on time.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. The System Mall has been unlocked. Please check it yourself.]

[Given that the host has just awakened the mall, the system grants the host 1000 Points.]

Lin Qi paused, narrowing his eyes. "System, how do I get Points?"

[You can get Points by killing Villains. The more Sin Value a person has, the more Points they yield.]

[For example: Killing an enemy who has killed one person will grant 1 Point. Killing an enemy with a Sin Value less than one Point will not grant any Points.]
