Constitution Fruit

Opening a wild treasure chest took time.

During that time, the person opening it had to keep a hand on the chest.

If they took their hand off, they would have to start the countdown all over again.

So whenever you opened a chest, you had to make sure you wouldn't be interrupted.

Lin Zhiluo was the only one in the women's restroom, so he wasn't worried. He placed his hand on the chest.

"Open."

[Player "Yazi" is opening a Bronze Treasure Chest. Please wait patiently.]

[30, 29, 28, 27, 26...]

The thirty seconds it took to open the chest passed quickly.

Lin Zhiluo gathered himself, eager to see what he would get.

[Player "Yazi" successfully opened a Bronze Treasure Chest]

[While opening the Bronze Treasure Chest, player "Yazi" received a chest bonus. His Storage Space successfully expanded by 0.2 cubic meters]

[After opening the Bronze Treasure Chest, player "Yazi" received an experience bonus and gained 10 experience points]

[Player "Yazi" rummaged around inside the Bronze Treasure Chest and successfully found 134 Gold Coins]

That was the end of the notifications.

Every time he opened a chest, he received a small amount of Storage Space, some experience, and a random number of Gold Coins.

The remaining reward was the actual item.

The Bronze Treasure Chest slowly opened, revealing a greenish-blue fruit, somewhat resembling an apple, right in the center.

There was nothing else inside.

But Lin Zhiluo wasn't disappointed in the slightest, because he already recognized the fruit.

"I hope this fruit boosts Strength or Agility," he prayed.

Then he reached out and picked it up without hesitation.

[Constitution Fruit (Bronze): A one-time-use Bronze item, known as a divine fruit.

Attribute: Permanently increases Constitution by 2 when consumed.]

A Constitution Fruit. Not bad.

Constitution wasn't his first choice.

But when he saw that it permanently increased the attribute by two, Lin Zhiluo was delighted.

Attribute fruits were rare, and they were among the few items that could permanently increase your attributes.

What's more, for a Bronze-grade attribute fruit, two was the maximum increase.

At the lowest end, it might not increase anything at all. In that case, you'd have to eat two fruits together to gain a single attribute point.

Lin Zhiluo rinsed the attribute fruit under the faucet.

It didn't really need washing. Items from treasure chests were always clean.

But, well, it had come from a women's restroom...

So Lin Zhiluo decided to wash it anyway.

Lin Zhiluo bit into the fruit.

A sweet taste instantly filled his mouth.

Juice spilled out too.

Treasure chest goods were always top quality!

Lin Zhiluo took two bites and ate half the Constitution Fruit.

[Player "Yazi" consumed a Constitution Fruit. His Constitution permanently increased by 1 point]

Actually, there was another way to use attribute fruits.

If two people were in a party and found a fruit that could increase an attribute by two points, they might split it in half.

That way, each person could gain one point.

But if the fruit could only increase an attribute by one point, then sorry, you had to eat the whole thing and leave nothing behind.

Otherwise, you wouldn't gain that attribute point at all.

Luckily, the fruit had no core. Otherwise...

Of course, Lin Zhiluo didn't hesitate. He took two more bites and finished the rest of the fruit.

[Player "Yazi" consumed a Constitution Fruit. His Constitution permanently increased by 1 point]

Lin Zhiluo brought up his attribute panel.

Base Attributes: Strength: 18 Spirit: 18 Constitution: 14 Agility: 18

Nice. Now he didn't have any obvious weaknesses.

Lin Zhiluo looked around the women's restroom.

Wasn't it strange?

This small women's restroom somehow made him feel very at home.

Lin Zhiluo swore—yes, that was deliberate—that it definitely wasn't because he'd found a Fusion Stone and opened a Bronze Treasure Chest in there.

Next up was a major battle.

He couldn't make too much noise. There were over a hundred zombies between the floor below and the branch hall on this floor.

If he made too much noise and drew them over...

Lin Zhiluo wasn't so arrogant as to think he could take on hundreds of zombies at once.

He splashed some water on his face at the sink.

He'd spent too long in the restroom. He couldn't keep dragging things out.

To save time, it was time to take the initiative!

His cleaned Tang Dao gleamed with a cold light.

Lin Zhiluo stood at the entrance to the corridor, holding the Tang Dao.

He took [A Large, Thick Carpet] out of his Storage Space.

After activating it, he spread it across the floor.

Then he softly whistled toward the hall.

At once, all the zombies in the hall turned to look at him.

Of course, the noise wasn't enough to attract the zombies downstairs or in the branch hall.

Lin Zhiluo beckoned to the zombies, then backed into the corridor.

The moment the zombies spotted a living person, they weren't about to let him get away.

They charged straight toward the corridor.

Just as the first zombie was about to enter the corridor,

a gleaming blade flashed.

The zombie's head rolled to the ground.

But since it landed on the carpet, it didn't make much noise.

Then the zombies behind it charged forward too.

Lin Zhiluo kicked the first zombie's corpse aside, clearing a spot on the carpet.

Then he swung at the next zombie.

Another head fell onto the carpet.

Before he knew it, there were fewer and fewer zombies in the second-floor hall.

There had been more than ten, but now only seven or eight remained.

[Congratulations, player "Yazi"! You killed a Level 2 Zombie and gained 2 experience points and 3 Gold Coins]

[Congratulations, player! You have reached Level 6 and gained 1 free attribute point]

[Player "Yazi" needs 200 more experience points to reach the next level]

"Strength."

Lin Zhiluo raised his Strength to 19.
