Chapter 20

As I walked through the forest, I found quite a few highly poisonous mushrooms. I used [Decompose] to remove their smell and [Construct] to reshape them into delicious-looking mushrooms. Then, I scattered the modified highly poisonous mushrooms around. If a monster eats one and dies, my level will increase.

While setting up these traps, I continued exploring. The forest was hard to navigate, but no matter how far I walked, I didn’t feel out of breath.

“Oh… finally…!”

Between moss-covered rocks, I spotted a small stream of water trickling through! A spring!

I wasn’t tired, but my throat was parched.

I reached out to scoop up some water but suddenly stopped.

“That was close.”

I’ve heard that forest springs can contain dangerous bacteria like Campylobacter. With the highly poisonous mushrooms and who knows what other toxins in this forest, I couldn’t be too careful.

[Appraisal]

Condition: Clean Water appeared.

“Yes…!”

Confirming the green glowing text, I cupped the water with both hands and drank it.

“So good…”

Plain water had never tasted so delicious. My painfully dry throat was soothed by the clean water. It felt refreshing.

“I need to remember this spot.”

There was a steep brown rock nearby, which would serve as a good landmark.

“Next is food… huh?”
