Taming Beasts to Survive: I Can See the Prompts

Chapter 68: Buy More Skill Books, Make Mcgee Stronger

Mcgee silently watched the screen…

One man is short, ten men are long.

In the chatbox, there was a spark of brainstorming.

From here, he could get a lot of information, find many problems, and find a lot of business opportunities.

But in the end, it was probably just that. He had finished talking about what he should see and what he should discover.

In fact, it was just a waste of time to continue chatting.

Therefore, more people put their energy into thinking about their current and future survival problems.

Mcgee quickly set his eyes on the shopping mall and slowly checked it out.

“As expected, there are no grains and vegetables in the shopping mall. Although there are seasonings, the premium is serious. It’s basically three to five times the price before transmigration. Even a bottle of pepper costs 10 copper coins.”

“It seems that the system still encourages everyone not to wait for death and take the initiative to farm monsters to get rich.”

“Let’s see which skill books are available.”

Mcgee, who was worth more than 30,000 copper coins, was not anxious at all.

He estimated that even if he did nothing, he would be better off than most people.

“Attribute skill book: After opening, you will receive a basic attribute that can be added to your body. 500 copper coins per book.”

“Five senses skill book: Upon activation, you will receive a random increase in your five senses (sight, hearing, smell, and perception). 1000 copper coins per book.”

“Survival skill book: Includes fishing, casting nets, swimming, climbing, jumping, woodcutting, rowing, breath-holding, etc. It can effectively increase your survival ability. Different skill books are sold at different prices. Skill Books of the same type are divided into levels.”

“Blueprint Skill Book: Manufacturing type. After obtaining the required materials, you can create corresponding items, such as rafts, boats, bows, traps, etc. . These items are not sold in the market. Self-made items are recommended.”

These were the main categories.

After reading through them, Mcgee frowned and fell into deep thought.

He originally thought that he would be able to buy skill books such as wind blades, fireballs, and flight in the market, but it turned out that he was thinking too much.

That’s right. If he could buy these skills directly, then he would not need to work hard at all. As long as he had money, he would be fine.

This was because not all Beast Masters were battle-type.

For example, Romon, the operator, started from nothing by relying on second-tier dealers. He could make a fortune by staying at home every day, and then buying skill books to become stronger.

This completely lost the system’s setting for the survival test.

However, this was also good. Only when it was difficult would it be challenging.

Mcgee thought about it. The situation was still not very clear, and he did not dare to act rashly. However, he still had to save some copper coins.

Then he would buy a few skill books to test the feeling.

Yes, he would first buy 20 attribute skill books, then buy 10 five sense skill books, and then buy some other ones.

After some operations, Mcgee’s net worth decreased greatly, from 32,200 copper coins to 5,200 copper coins.

Attribute skill books totaled 10,000.

Five senses skill books totaled 10,000.

F grade boat blueprints 3000.

Three types of fishnet blueprints totaled 500.

Elementary swimming skill books 500.

Intermediate swimming skill books 1000.

Elementary suffocation skill books 500.

Elementary breath control skill books 500.

Elementary casting skill books 500.

Elementary fishing skill books 500.

A total of 27,000 copper coins. It was simply a waste of money.

For some reason, his heart ached, but it also felt good.

In fact, Mcgee bought these for a reason.

He felt that when others were struggling for food and clothing all day long, he could not just sit around and do nothing. Instead, he should take the initiative to adapt to the new environment quickly.

In short, he should have the ability to travel on water as soon as possible.

As the saying goes, sharpening a knife does not delay chopping wood. Therefore, this purchase not only increased his attributes but also helped him gain many survival skills.

He expected to have the ability to explore the vast water swamp world outside.

“System, open the skill book.”

“System notification: You have gained 1 point of increase in stamina.”

“System notification: You have gained 1 point of increase in hand speed.”

“…”

“System notification: You have received 1 point of increase in vision.

Mcgee opened 20 attribute skill books and 10 five senses skill books in one go.

In the end, he received 5 points of stamina, 3 points of speed, 4 points of reaction force, and the remaining 8 points of attributes were all added to hand speed.

Then, he received 3 points of vision, 3 points of hearing, 1 point of smell, 1 point of taste, and 2 points of perception.

Then, a white light appeared out of thin air…

Bathing in Mcgee’s body, it felt warm, and his pores could not help but relax a lot. There was even a tingling sensation in his body as if his entire body had been electrocuted.

When the white light disappeared, Mcgee vaguely felt some changes to himself, but he could not tell what exactly he felt.

It was as if his strength had increased, his movement had become faster, and his reaction speed had also become faster.

Standing in front of the window, he could see further, and his vision was clearer. He could even see some tiny things.

If this had happened in the past, he would definitely have ignored it.

At the same time, he heard more sounds, and his ears became much noisier. There was the sound of the Little Spirit Fox’s tail wagging, and the sound of the undercurrent on the surface of the water…

In addition, he faintly felt that something was not right. It was as if something had appeared on the first floor of his wooden house. Was it a fish?

Presumably, this was the result of the increase in his perceptive sense.

If this were before, he would not have felt this way no matter what.

He summoned his attribute panel and studied it for a while.

He discovered that the so-called points were actually calculated in percentage. So, for example, 3 points of vision meant an increase of 30% of vision.

8 points of hand speed meant an increase of 80% of hand speed.

When he thought of this, he immediately moved his wrist and ten fingers. In the end, they became extremely flexible.

This hand speed was definitely of a talented esports player.

With such a huge increase in hand speed, it should be very helpful for fishing, archery, and knife-wielding.

“Boss, how’s your situation? Do you have any materials that you need?”

At this moment, Romon, who had been struggling for the whole night, sent a message.

Although Mcgee had been busy the whole night, Romon was the same.

As a peddler, he would definitely fail if he did not make a fortune during a disaster.

Therefore, last night, he collected all kinds of items everywhere and used a little food to exchange for a large number of items. He had also saved up a lot of copper coins.

However, he was following Mcgee. Mcgee was the thigh, and he was just a follower.

No matter how much money he earned, it was only a little more than Mcgee’s. He estimated that he had 4,000 more copper coins on hand.

Of course, the resources he collected were very rich, which Mcgee could not compare to.

“I’m fine. Half of the first floor was flooded, and now I’m trapped on the second floor.”

Since Mcgee’s home had been upgraded to level two, the two-floor wooden house had been strengthened, so the current did not wash it down. The wooden house was also more tightly sealed to avoid being blown by the cold wind.

It could be said that Mcgee’s current situation could not be any better than the others.

“The big boss is indeed a big boss. Although I have upgraded my home, the door has been washed open. There are many big fishes nearby, and they often crash into my house. I feel like it’s about to collapse.”

Romon had a sad face. He realized that he had to save himself.

The condition for saving himself was to escape from this water area, so he had to have the ability to swim.
