NOVEL NEXT Chapter 240: Earn a Crazy 360,000 Points!_3
Wu Meng and his group gained their carbon supply from some unknown source, but when they visited the Fire Bamboo Forest and Liang Yuan treated them to a meal, everyone devoured the rice, indicating that the people from the Martial King Pavilion also faced significant challenges in carbon supply.
In such circumstances, no shelter would be willing to increase its population.
As for Tian Wei from the mining district, the reason he still needed to take people forcefully was that he didn't care about the lives of the mine slaves.
As long as his superpower users were well-fed, it didn't matter if the mine slaves died; he could always capture more.
Liang Yuan had no clear idea about the situation in Meihai Garden, but he assumed it wasn't much better than the other two shelters.
In short, Han Xiangman and her group had no place to go.
Han Xiangman had evidently already inquired about the situation in Yangshan from the mine slaves here and knew her current predicament.
She displayed gratitude towards Liang Yuan's offer to take them in.
"Thank you, thank you so much, Mr. Liang. Having a place to stay is more than enough for us."
"As for other matters, you can rest assured that we will follow the rules."
"Once we recover, we'll organize hunting trips and dig for superpower stones to exchange for points with you."
Liang Yuan smiled and said, "In that case, rest here peacefully."
After comforting them with a few more words, he greeted everyone and quickly left, heading towards the riverbank to kill mutant creatures and earn points.
It seemed that there were fewer mutants along the river today, possibly because he had killed so many yesterday.
However, there were still quite a few mutant fish washed up by the tides.
"Strange, is it the last day of the sea tide, and the tide has started to recede?"
Liang Yuan wondered as he began to harvest these mutant creatures.
After killing a bunch of mutant fish, he instinctively stored them all in his inventory.
Just as he finished, he turned his head and saw some mutant cats meowing not far away, seemingly puzzled as to why they couldn't find any fish.
Liang Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized the situation.
"I was foolish. I killed all the mutant fish and cleared the riverbank, so the mutants can't catch any fish. Of course, they wouldn't come."
"No, I can kill these mutant fish, but I need to leave their bodies to attract the mutants."
Realizing this, Liang Yuan quickly adjusted his behavior.
He continued to kill fish without taking the catch.
This method proved effective. The strong fishy smell along the riverbank soon attracted a large number of mutant cats and dogs.
The presence of these smaller mutants lured in larger ones to hunt them.
Soon, the riverbank became lively again, with mutants of various sizes coming and going.
Liang Yuan, excited, sped up his hunt to earn more points.
It took him half a day to clear the entire riverbank along Yangshan.
He frequently used Spirit Shock to the point where his spiritual power couldn't keep up with the consumption.
By noon, he rushed back to Fire Bamboo Forest, quickly ate lunch, rested for less than an hour, and rushed out again.
Thanks to his diligence, Liang Yuan's points broke through the 300,000 mark by evening!
The riverbank was littered with the corpses of mutant fish, shrimp, cats, and dogs.
Liang Yuan didn't collect the corpses; instead, powerful mutants emerged from the forests to feed on the remains.
He noticed that fewer and fewer small mutants came from the forest.
With a slight frown, he asked himself, "Have I overhunted?"
"Overhunting can lead to resource depletion."
"I should moderate my hunting. For the time being, I'll only kill river mutants and spare the forest ones."
Liang Yuan worried that he might deplete the forest mutants completely, leaving no game for future hunts.
So, he continued until the tide receded, then dragged his tired body back to the cave in Fire Bamboo Forest.
After greeting Yang Mei and the others, he took a quick shower, changed into his pajamas, and went to sleep in his bedroom.
This time, he slept until two in the morning.
Feeling refreshed, Liang Yuan opened his eyes, hearing light breathing nearby.
He glanced over and saw Yang Mei sleeping in her pajamas.
Smiling, Liang Yuan quietly got up and headed to the bathroom.
While leaving the room, he opened the system panel.
He skipped the attribute interface and went straight to the points section.
The number displayed made his heart race with excitement.
"361,342 Points!"
"I've reached 360,000 points! All the hard work over the past two days and nights paid off."
Liang Yuan decided not to continue hunting mutants immediately. He wanted sustainable development, not overhunting.
"With 360,000 points, I'll draw some attribute points to enhance my overall attributes."
Liang Yuan knew that all superpowers ultimately relied on the fundamental strength of the basic attributes.
"System, initiate 60 consecutive attribute draws!"
Without hesitation, he launched a 60-draw streak.
A familiar attribute lottery disc appeared, spinning rapidly.
Soon, notification chimes echoed in his ears.
"Ding, congratulations Host, you have drawn 1 Free Attribute Point."
"Ding, congratulations Host, you have drawn 1 Agility Attribute Point."
...
Ignoring the persistent notifications, Liang Yuan checked the results.
He received 11 Physical Attribute Points, 15 Strength Attribute Points, 18 Agility Attribute Points, 9 Spirit Attribute Points, and 10 Free Attribute Points.
Grinning, Liang Yuan felt the power merging into his body.
The attribute panel updated swiftly.
Host: Liang Yuan
Constitution: 36.8
Strength: 37.9
Agility: 39.8
Spirit: 49.3
Free Attribute Points: 12
...
Liang Yuan felt immense power surging through every cell of his body.
He felt extremely formidable now!
Any single attribute of his now reached the level of an elite superpower user!
"As expected, the more I draw, the more balanced my attributes become."
Nodding, he acknowledged the predictable statistical outcome of the draws.
The more he drew, the closer the results aligned with statistical probability.
His higher Spirit Attribute was due to his frequent allocation of Free Attribute Points to enhance it.
"Macro control with micro adjustments, that's the way to go,"
Liang Yuan smiled, feeling confident that, even if he faced the Bone Spear Giant Spider again, he wouldn't necessarily need to flee.
He wondered if he would fare better against the Octopus Monster he encountered at Meidu Garden now.
