At that thought, Qin Feng suddenly felt a little weary.
He had spent the whole day rushing about and killing without pause. It would be a lie to say he wasn't tired.
It seemed he needed to rest and recharge for a while, then resume his activities once he had recovered some strength...
A quarter of an hour later, Qin Feng had built a campfire in the valley.
The four wild boar legs above it were already sizzling with fat.
Waves of meaty fragrance wafted through the air.
Sitting beside the campfire, Qin Feng took a pack of cigarettes from inside his clothes.
When he descended from Blue Star into this world of slaughter, the Heavenly Dao had confiscated his phone and other things.
Only his cigarettes and lighter remained on him.
He took out a cigarette and held it between his lips. A tongue of flame sprang from his fingertip.
This was Flame Manipulation!
After lighting the cigarette, he took a deep drag and exhaled a long stream of smoke, feeling utterly at ease.
Judging by the time, the sun should be setting outside. It would be dark soon.
With a thought, Qin Feng entered the chat channel.
The channel was still buzzing, though the topic had changed.
"Ah! I'm so tired! I can't walk anymore!"
"I can't walk anymore either. I've been killing ferocious beasts all day. I'm exhausted."
"It's almost dark. We should get some rest too. We just can't keep going like this!"
"Yeah! We'll have to wait until tomorrow to keep leveling!"
"Boohoo! I'm only level 1 (67/100), and level 2 is still so far away. The first day is almost over. I'm so worried I won't reach level 10 within seven days!"
"Don't worry, girl above. I'm only level 1 (71/100) myself. At worst, I'll go to the Yellow Springs with you, and we can be a pair of ill-fated lovers!"
"Sigh! This is too hard! I don't dare rest because I need to level up, but my body is too exhausted to hold out!"
"Strange! Have you noticed? The day is almost over, but I haven't felt hungry at all. Just physically exhausted."
"Yeah! I noticed that too!"
"Heh! What's so strange about that? We gain energy from killing ferocious beasts, more energy than we get from eating, so naturally we don't feel hungry. But no matter how much energy we gain, it can't offset physical fatigue. We still need rest!"
"Well said, you above! Looks like we have no choice but to rest!"
Qin Feng silently read up to this point and felt that it made sense.
Endless fighting wouldn't work. The human body couldn't take it.
In short, humans still weren't strong enough. They needed proper rest to recover their stamina.
Just then, a meaty fragrance drifted over.
The meat was ready!
Qin Feng left the chat channel.
The sight of the golden roasted meat dripping with fat stirred his appetite. He sliced off a piece with his knife and began eating.
Roasted ferocious beast meat tasted excellent.
It was fatty without being greasy and had a satisfyingly chewy texture.
Qin Feng liked it after just one bite and immediately began devouring it, grease coating his mouth...
Once the cooked meat reached his stomach, a warm current immediately rose and flowed throughout his limbs and body...
[Cooked food consumed successfully. Stamina recovery +1] [Cooked food consumed successfully. Stamina recovery +1] [Cooked food consumed successfully. Stamina recovery +1]
"Huh? What's this?"
Qin Feng heard a notification from the Heavenly Dao in his mind.
At the same time, he noticed that after just a few bites of cooked meat, his stamina was recovering extremely quickly. He no longer felt as tired as before.
Holy shit!
So when you were physically exhausted, you could recover quickly by eating cooked food!
This discovery was incredibly useful!
Delighted, Qin Feng hurriedly took huge mouthfuls of cooked meat.
In no time, he had eaten two jin of cooked meat. His stamina had fully recovered, bringing him back to peak condition.
[Announcement: Novice Qin Feng has discovered a life hack: eating roasted meat can rapidly restore stamina. As the first to discover this, Qin Feng is awarded 1 reputation point!]
Just then, the Heavenly Dao's announcement rang out in every participant's mind.
Everyone froze!
Qin Feng froze too.
Holy shit!
Even this worked?!
He hadn't expected to earn reputation just like that. Wasn't this far too easy?
The chat channel soon exploded.
"Holy shit! So eating roasted meat can restore stamina quickly!"
"Haha! Great! We finally found a way to recover stamina quickly!"
"Reputation is extremely hard to come by! Boss Qin Feng is way too lucky!"
"Yeah! How did he discover this life hack? Damn it! Why wasn't I the first to discover it?"
"Reputation! One whole reputation point! I just missed out on something so precious!"
"Heh! Stop being so jealous! We've all been going all out hunting ferocious beasts today. How many of us had enough leisure to think about eating roasted meat?"
"True! Looks like Boss Qin Feng has plenty of free time!"
"I was wondering why Boss Qin Feng's name had turned gray and his ranking kept dropping. Turns out he was hiding somewhere, leisurely enjoying life!"
"We're all working ourselves to death, while Boss Qin Feng is relaxing like he's on vacation!"
"Yeah! I'm jealous! So jealous!"
"Enough talk! I'm going to find food! I need to recover my stamina!"
While everyone was chatting excitedly, the Heavenly Dao issued another announcement.
[Announcement: A reminder to all novices: only eating cooked food and drinking hot water can rapidly restore stamina. Eating raw or cold food has no effect!] [Announcement: The hyperspace trading channel is now open!]
The news sent the chat channel buzzing again.
"Holy shit! Only cooked food works! I don't have anything to start a fire!"
"Yeah! We don't have anything to make a fire either!"
"Who knows Flame Manipulation? Light a fire for me!"
"Are you stupid, you above? Liu Yunchang was the only person in our beginner village who knew Flame Manipulation, and a Tusked Wild Boar killed him!"
"Well, damn! We're screwed! I'll have to start a fire with a fire drill!"
"Damn it! It only works if the food is cooked? Does that mean I have to roast this apple before eating it?"
"Holy shit! You above, you actually have an apple? Did you bring it over from Blue Star?"
"Everyone, I just tried starting a fire with a fire drill. It doesn't work! My hands are blistered. Who has a lighter? Name your price. We can trade through the hyperspace channel!"
"Right! The hyperspace trading channel is open. That's really useful!"
As everyone chatted away, a few more announcements popped up.
[Announcement: Novice Qin Feng has listed a new item in the hyperspace trading channel. Three jin of roasted meat can be exchanged for one level 2 ferocious beast corpse.] [Announcement: Novice Qin Feng is the first to use the hyperspace trading channel and is awarded 1 reputation point!]
