Survival for all: I can extract the essence of all things

"It's the twelfth one."

Lin Xiao looked at the male corpse in front of him.

The man's face was pale, his expression was frightened, and there were signs of gnawing on his upper body.

As for the lower body, it was hung on a bush not far away.

This man was the twelfth deceased Lin Xiao encountered after improving his physical attributes for the first time.

As for Home No. 80210, Lin Xiao opened the home screen and took a look.

There are now 15,301 survivors in the entire homeland.

Just over an hour had passed since the mass exodus from their homes, and more than 300 people in Home No. 80210 had lost their lives.

This mortality rate cannot be said to be low.

However, humans' enthusiasm for killing monsters has also increased significantly.

Lin Xiao is still touching the corpse at the edge of his home.

There are some good teams, but they are already fighting monsters several kilometers away from their homes.

The atmosphere in the home channel has evolved from cursing and panic at the beginning to information sharing and collaborative help-seeking.

The ranking function in the home screen has also been officially launched.

The top ten on the level list are all LV3, and hundreds of people have upgraded to LV2.

Lin Xiao also saw Li Qing and Bai Yu on the ranking list.

These people belong to a certain team. Not only did they not hide their information like Lin Xiao, they also chose to display their real names.

This is done to attract new members to join.

As for Lin Xiao, he is still lv1, ranking 9999+

Compared to the level list, the points list is empty, with no one on the list yet.

The currently known way to obtain points is to donate soul coins to your home.

The function of points is unknown to everyone, but soul coins are the currency in circulation in their homeland.

Whether you are purchasing food from shops or extending your stay in your home, soul coins must be used.

So no one is willing to use soul coins to gain points.

Lin Xiao extracted red essence and white essence from the corpse, then pieced the corpse together and buried it.

So far, Lin Xiao has extracted the corpses of twenty-two humans and wild monsters.

But because most of the corpses were mutilated, not much of the essence was extracted.

Lin Xiao currently has 4.6 units of red essence, 3.5 units of white essence, 0.4 units of silver essence, and two gold essences accumulated in his backpack.

Not long ago, when Lin Xiao gathered a unit of red essence and white essence, he smelted himself.

As a result, the physical and mental attributes did not increase, but only received a small improvement.

Now that he had enough red essence and white essence in his hands, Lin Xiao once again chose to smelt himself.

Two units of red essence and two units of white essence disappear.

Lin Xiao's body once again felt a comfortable numbness, and his brain felt warm. It slowly subsided after a while.

Lin Xiao opened the information panel and found that both physical and mental attributes had increased to 9 points!

"Including the red essence and white essence consumed before, the second time to improve the attributes, the essence consumed is more than twice as much as before."

Lin Xiao made a rough calculation.

Immediately he understood that his physique and soul were enhanced, and if he wanted to directly improve his attributes, he would consume more and more essence.

"Luckily, I even left a weapon behind."

Just as he was about to leave, Lin Xiao was attracted by a flash of white light in the grass.

Carefully approaching and inspecting, I discovered that it was a missing spear.

Weapons may be damaged, and they are also a relatively scarce resource in our homeland.

In the past, the weapons of the deceased would be picked up by their companions.

So Lin Xiao extracted more than a dozen corpses and only found two weapons, both of which were badly damaged and abandoned.

This spear is not damaged yet, and the end is made of metal. It should be able to extract more silver essence.

Lin Xiao activated his talent, and in the blink of an eye, the end of the spear rotted and the handle became chapped. Lin Xiao also had an extra piece of silver essence in his hand.

After being included in the backpack, the total amount of silver essence reaches 0.7 units.

Susu~

At this moment, Lin Xiao heard a subtle, rapid sound.

Lin Xiao subconsciously swung the long knife behind him.

【Ding! 】

[You killed a Spiny Scale Sand Snake and gained 32 experience points and 3 soul coins! 】

Following the information prompt, a ferocious snake head slipped out of the parabola and fell into the grass.

There was also a twisting snake body under Lin Xiao's feet, which was four to five meters long.

“In the wilderness, there are so many dangers.

If you are not careful, you may die. "

Lin Xiao checked the information about wild monsters.

【Spiny Scale Sand Snake】

[Level: LV3]

[Introduction: Common wild monsters living in grasslands, Gobi, and desert areas.

Non-toxic, it is difficult for ordinary individuals to grow to the second level]

This was the first wild monster Lin Xiao killed.

The whole process was a one-shot kill, very easy.

Of course, this is because Lin Xiao has superb swordsmanship and has been well prepared.

But the key is that the long knife in Lin Xiao's hand is a high-quality piece of equipment.

Spiny-scaled sand snakes are not social animals and are not venomous.

Being able to survive in nature mainly depends on the thorny scales on the body.

With its hard and capable stinging scales.

Even a lone ordinary sickle-clawed beast would not be a match for the Spiny Scaled Sand Snake.

But in front of a sophisticated long sword, the Thorny Scaled Sand Snake's defense was somewhat inadequate.

The body of the Thorn-scaled Sand Snake twisted for a while before gradually losing its movement.

Lin Xiao was not in a hurry to extract the essence.

Instead, he touched the spiny-scaled sand snake with a knife. After seeing that it had no reflexive behavior, he began to dismember the spiny-scaled sand snake with a long knife.

Once the refining talent is activated, the flesh and scales of the Spiny Scale Sand Snake will be discarded.

Although the red essence can replenish physical strength, it cannot be eaten as food.

Food is now a scarce resource. In addition to eating, it can also be traded on the market.

This thorn-scale sand snake is not small, and the cut meat is enough for Lin Xiao to eat for a while.

As for the skin of the Spiny Scale Sand Snake, Lin Xiao planned to use it to make armor.

After taking some time to dispose of the body of the Thorn-scaled Sand Snake, Lin Xiao activated his talent.

The originally fresh snake body quickly shriveled and turned into powder, and Lin Xiao also had 0.3 units of red essence and 0.2 units of white essence in his hand.

"better than nothing."

Putting the essence into his backpack, Lin Xiao was a little distressed.

His backpack only has five slots, and they are all owned now.

As a result, the snake skin can only be buried in a hidden place and retrieved when there is time.

As for upgrading the backpack, the first upgrade requires one hundred soul coins.

As for Lin Xiao, he only had 3 soul coins in his hands.

"There is no shortage of food now, so we must speed up the pace."

The environment of Home No. 80210 is similar to sparse forests and grasslands.

Lin Xiao climbed up a short tree, observed the terrain, and finally chose to move in a direction with fewer people.

With the strength displayed by the surrounding monsters, people can completely rely on numbers to win.

The more people there are, the less likely it is for something to happen, and it's easier for one to expose one's natural abilities.

It is not conducive to Lin Xiao's low-key development.

In addition, you cannot go to resource points closer to your home.

You don't need to think about it to know that those resource points are the targets of the homeland forces.

Although places with few people are dangerous, they are also full of opportunities.
