[Congratulations on completing the triggered quest "Bring Peace to the Children." Rewards: Mist Points *10, Ordinary Filthy Blood 100ml, Hardened Black Bread *10, Attribute Title Gift Box *1.]

"The quest rewards have been sent to your [Backpack]. Please check them."

Colin immediately poured the 100ml of Ordinary Filthy Blood into his nearly depleted Hurricane Lamp.

In an instant, the dim candlelight suddenly flared up, and the Gray Fog that had been encroaching within five meters was pushed back beyond a ten-meter radius.

The field of vision before him suddenly opened up!

"Aside from the burn time increasing to three hours, the range of the light has also changed."

Colin was stunned. His space for movement had instantly doubled compared to a moment ago, and he almost couldn't adapt to it for a second!

Thinking back, it seemed the prompt had mentioned the range would expand, but it didn't specify by how much, so he had simply ignored it.

However, just as Colin was preparing to use his Mist Points to "repair" his injuries, additional system text suddenly popped up before his eyes.

[Quest Completion Rating: S (SSS is the highest)]

[Due to your outstanding performance and near-perfect completion of the quest conditions, the system will issue additional rewards.]

"Congratulations on obtaining 'Recovery Card *1', transferred to your backpack!"

"Congratulations on obtaining 'Level 1 Backpack Expansion Card *1'. As your backpack slots were insufficient, it has been used automatically!"

"Congratulations on obtaining 'Mist Points *10', transferred to your backpack!"

"Congratulations on obtaining 'Treasure Map Fragment *1', transferred to your backpack!"

Four consecutive rewards flashed before his eyes. Colin was stunned, then an uncontrollable smile spread across his face.

He hurriedly opened his [Backpack], and sure enough, it had now expanded to thirty-six slots!

[Recovery Card (Lord use only): Completely restores all bodily functions and clears all negative effects acting upon oneself.]

[Note: As long as there is a breath left, this person won't die. Even the Grim Reaper can't do anything about it, I said so!]

"Tsk, this note is quite cheeky."

Colin chuckled and, without hesitation, immediately used the [Recovery Card].

The next second, Colin felt a strange power sweep over him. In less than a second, he suddenly felt all the pain in his body vanish completely!

"Woo-hoo~"

Colin let out a long sigh of relief.

The feeling of being healthy again was truly wonderful!

"Congratulations, my Lord!" the two servants immediately offered their congratulations upon seeing this.

Colin waved his hand, then looked at the gift box in his inventory and chose to open it directly. A black iron badge appeared in the slot.

[Name: Sufferer Hunter.]

[Type: Level 1 Title.]

[Usage: Equip on any part of the body.]

[Attribute: When wearing this title, all your personal attributes will receive a 30% boost (the minimum will not be lower than 0.3; if the increase is less than 0.1, it will not be calculated).]

[Special Effect 1: "Hunting Moment": When actively using this skill, your Strength, Agility, and Stamina will be doubled, and you will enter a state of extreme, cold-blooded hunter mode. (Duration: three minutes; can be actively extended up to ten minutes, but will result in a temporary state of exhaustion depending on the duration. Cooldown: 1 to 3 hours.)]

[Note 1: Weakness sometimes follows excessive exertion.]

[Special Effect 2: "Aberration Scholar": Since you have killed one hundred "Aberrations," you will trigger the exclusive "Weakness Perception" effect when facing "Aberrations" in the future (if the enemy faced is too strong, the effect speed will slow down).]

[Note 2: Nothing else, just practice makes perfect.]

[Note: This title has growth potential. Next promotion condition: Kill one Lord-level Aberration, three Elite Aberrations, and one hundred Ordinary Aberrations.]

Seeing the attributes above, Colin's eyes lit up. The benefits of an all-attribute boost were self-evident.

Although its current effect was not as good as the priest's wheel, this percentage-based boost would grow along with his own growth.

Even now, a 0.3 all-attribute boost was definitely not insignificant for Colin.

And that first special effect was a god-tier skill!

Strength, Agility, and Stamina could be simply understood as "stronger, faster, and tougher."

As long as it was used properly and reasonably, Colin could use it to turn the tables in multiple desperate situations and emerge unscathed.

Therefore, its utility was self-evident.

"But this note is a bit cheeky." Colin scoffed in his heart, A real man only needs three minutes.

In addition to this active effect, the second special effect was also quite powerful.

The vast majority of enemies encountered in the Gray Fog were of the "Aberration" type.

Possessing this skill was equivalent to having a natural suppression over all "Aberrations."

He could quickly attack their weak points to land a fatal blow.

However, this effect had some overlap with Colin's cheat, as he could also learn the enemies' weaknesses through prompts.

One was a passive, instinct-like ability, while the other was active and required brainpower to think through, so the effects were different.

"No, these two can actually be used in tandem. When facing stronger monsters, I can obtain hints and then utilize this passive; even against high-level enemies, I'll be able to instantly identify their weaknesses."

The only slight drawback is that this situation only applies to Aberrations.

However, looking at the mist right now, the vast majority of monsters are "Aberrations." It's unclear what things will be like later on, but the effect in the early stages is absolutely perfect.

Beyond that, the most crucial point is that this title actually possesses growth potential!

Although I don't know how many times it can grow, the current effect of this attribute is already terrifying in Colin's eyes; I can't imagine how heaven-defying it will be after the next upgrade.

Subsequently, Colin pinned the Sufferer Hunter medal to the inside of his pocket and immediately felt a wave of comfort wash over his entire body.

The first change he noticed was undoubtedly that his vision had become significantly clearer, followed by his body, then his strength, and the speed at which his brain processed information.

Colin had the feeling that he could take on ten at once!

[Treasure Map Fragment*3: Collect seven fragments to obtain one complete treasure map. Exploring the treasure map will yield rich rewards!]

[Note: Obtained through quests or killing monsters.]

[You realize that there seems to be such a fragment ahead of your house. Starting a treasure hunt as soon as possible is very important for your growth.]

"Three fragments. The other two came from that female survivor; it seems she really did find something."

After a brief look, Colin withdrew his gaze, not intending to review his gains here.

After all, he was still in the wild, which was not an appropriate place for that.

So far, he hadn't used up more than three minutes of his stationary time.

"Time to head back."

Having said that, Colin glanced at those benches.
