Chapter 63: It's Time



[You have trained your body to the limit!]

[You gained +1 Endurance and +1 Strength!]

Shen threw the giant stone to the side, causing a booming sound and the ground shook a little bit. He wiped his sweat and walked toward Ming who was sitting near the respawn spot. He was drinking the water and eating the berries to recover his Stamina as well.

"I think I am done with my training. It's 2000 squats and it only gives 1 Endurance and also 1 Strength. At this point, it will be a waste of my time to continue the training. My Master also told me that's enough for my physical training. I will start hunting the monster from" Shen took out his own berries and started to eat. Even though they had a cook now, ZhenZhen did not have the main ingredient to start cooking.

They did not have a farm to get vegetables. ZhenZhen said that she learned the farming skill, but it was useless without the seed. They did not have a seed to start a farm. So they had to wait longer to have real food.

"Hah… I will continue the training alone, I guess," Ming let out a sigh. It was a lie that he did not get bored working out in the game. However, he endured this well as he was also well aware that this was the key for him to succeed. Just like Shen said, he would feel the sweet taste of his hard work later in the future.

"By the way, did you see the Forum, Shen? Goddess Yue vanished from the ranking leaderboard!" Ming changed the topic. It was a hot topic on the Forum that Goddess Yue's name suddenly vanished.

People were speculating about her disappearance, but it was merely speculation. Some said that Goddess Yue was retiring to get married. Such a ridiculous assumption was barraged by angry mobs. Some said that Goddess Yue was restarting her character as she found a new secret in the game. Regardless of the speculation, no one knew what happened to Goddess Xue.

Goddess Yue's official account also did not give any statement. Even her friends in the game also did not know where Goddess Xue disappeared to. Her name disappeared from the top 10 rankings three days ago, since then, the forum went wild.

Shen nodded his head. Goddess Yue was the only one he subscribed to on the forum. So of course, he knew about her disappearance as well.

"What's with that reaction. This is Goddess Yue we are talking about Shen, Goddess Yue!" Ming shook his head helplessly at his friend's uninterested expression.

Shen shrugged, while he liked her content but it was not the point to get starstruck. This Yue did not know about him, why should he care about her since she did not want the others to know where she went to.

"By the way. Dale will go back in three days. He speed-runs his thesis because I told him about this hidden village," Shen changed the topic. He had told Dale and that guy immediately decided to return when he heard about the hidden village.

Ming nodded his head, "He also told me about it. He asked us to pick him at the airport."

"You can pick him up, I will go hunting the monsters," Shen replied to Ming, "You can drive your father's car to pick him up." He could not wait to start hunting the monsters. It was time to catch up with the level.

A month had passed since Tribe Online started. The number 1 in the leaderboard was still the same, ZhanQ from Dynasty and Zhong Ye from Royal. Both had the same level but ZhanQ was always ahead of Zhong Ye. Both were level 31 now. Goddess Yue was level 29, ranking 7 in the leaderboard before she disappeared.

As the two chatted, ZhenZhen returned from gathering in the wild. She waved her hand excitedly as she ran toward them, "Runner! Ming! I found something good! We can have real food tonight!"

As she arrived in front of the two, she showed her basket. Both saw various kinds of mushrooms inside the basket, "We will have mushroom stew and roasted mushroom tonight."

Shen cast a dubious look at ZhenZhen, "Are you sure the mushroom is safe to be consumed?" He did not want to die silly from food poisoning. He would drop a level if he died.

"The mushroom is poisonous if you don't properly clean it. However, you can trust me. I will make a delicious mushroom stew." ZhenZhen hit her chest assuringly to convince Runner.

"I can't wait for your mushroom stew, ZhenZhen. I am sick of eating these berries." Ming said while maintaining a calm composure. Even after knowing ZhenZhen's real age past thirty, Ming did not give up. His reason was quite simple, "Even though she is in her thirties, she looks like she was in her twenties."

It was not something Shen could deny as ZhenZhen looked much younger than her age. Maybe the game filter that made her look younger. However, Shen did not try to stop Ming. As a friend, he would support his friend in his endeavor.

They chatted a while before ZhenZhen went to her house. She said she wanted to clean the mushroom first.

"Alright then. I will continue my training as well. I can't wait to eat her first dish," Ming stood up and walked toward the stone. He was going for his squat routine. While Shen used forty kilos of stone, Ming had learned his lesson so he used twenty-five kilos for the squat.

Meanwhile, Shen checked his stamina while checking his stats as well. This was the fruit after working out for two months in-game time.

Looking at window status, Shen grinned happily. Which character had this kind of status in level 10? No one but him.

Shen stood up and stretched out, "It's time to hunt!"
