Lord of the Myriad Worlds

Chapter 83: One-Star Fisherman Card

The facts proved that Li Wei's judgment was correct.

During normal walking, he didn't feel any change brought by the 10 points of Agility. However, when he started jogging slowly on a slope with about a 5-degree incline and uneven ground while carrying a full set of equipment, the effect became immediately obvious.

He felt his reaction to the surrounding environment was noticeably faster by a little bit. It was no longer the awkward situation where his eyes saw something but his body couldn't react in time. Instead—even though the Stamina consumed was about the same—there was a wonderful sense of lightness and briskness.

Every step he landed felt so stable and secure. The force exertion from various parts of his body became increasingly harmonious and balanced, as if he had found a greatest common denominator that encompassed all disharmony and contradictions.

He even felt an urge to speed up uncontrollably. He wanted to run, he wanted to feel the sensation of the wind.

Moreover, the more he ran, the easier it became. This was the true Parkour.

Li Wei felt that many of the difficulties he encountered and the movements he found hard to complete during his nightly Parkour practice over the past month could now be easily accomplished at this moment.

After running for a distance and checking his attributes again, he was surprised to find that his Stamina consumption had actually been reduced by about 10%.

This was truly miraculous.

An increase in the Agility attribute could actually affect Stamina? And it was very clear that his evasion ability had improved, even though it wasn't reflected in the Attribute Panel.Or, to be more precise, the human body was originally an integrated whole. It was just being parsed and quantified now to achieve the purpose of understanding oneself better.

Perhaps, this was the true meaning of awakening?

At this moment, Li Wei suddenly felt that he finally possessed the qualification to hunt deep in the mountain forests.

But he still wasn't qualified to hunt the Black Bear...

"Cough, cough!"

A pungent, smoky smell was blown over by the wind. Li Wei frowned slightly and quickly moved away. Development always came with a cost.

This was Thomas and Leon burning lime.

Lime was the essential binding material for constructing stone buildings.

Li Wei didn't understand these things, but Thomas and Leon clearly had considerable experience. This month, they had even built another Lime Kiln, obviously speeding up the process.

However, building the Perimeter Wall was a major project.

Over the past twenty days, not even a prototype of the wall Thomas was supposed to build had been seen. Yet, the area around the camp had already been turned into a smoky, messy mess.

Fortunately, this should be temporary. Once the Perimeter Wall and some stone buildings were completed, the Lime Kiln could be relocated. Otherwise, he felt it might even affect the Farmland.

Moreover, it seemed Margaret had also participated in the wall construction today. This woman was definitely in cahoots with Thomas.

He wasn't sure before, but Li Wei was now certain.

Also, it seemed Thomas's wall wouldn't be completed this month. In fact, Li Wei thought it would be good if it could be built in another month. He didn't know how his main quest was calculated?

Was it divided into stages?

However, this month, the warehouse and workshop Leon was responsible for might actually be built.

"Next month, that unknown risk will likely erupt. Penny will bear the brunt of it!"

Li Wei looked at the surrounding mountain forests, his heart filled with vigilance. He dared not be the slightest bit careless. He was now essentially the family's scout and patrol sentry.

Around ten o'clock the next morning, Li Wei woke from a deep sleep. After getting ready and patrolling a circle without finding anything unusual, he headed straight for the downstream section of the Creek. Starting today, he was going to grind Fishing Experience, aiming to accumulate 500 points as soon as possible to obtain the One-Star Fisherman Card.

Speaking of which, although he didn't have the Fisherman profession bonus now, he had someone else's successful example to follow.

Last autumn, Leon got up at dawn every day to sneak off and fish. He used Fish Traps and a simple Fishing Net, catching quite a few fish every day, even One-Star quality big fish.

Nowadays, Leon was busy every day burning lime and building his warehouse. He had no time or energy to sneak off. So, the dozen or so Fish Traps he had woven back then were all taken by Li Wei.

Set them the day before, harvest the next day. Perfect.

It's just that the harvest wasn't much, all small fish weighing one Cattie, half a Cattie, or even less than half a Cattie.

Fortunately, he could always gain 5~10 points of Fishing Experience per day.

After setting the Fish Traps, Li Wei didn't need to worry about them. He returned to the camp, picked up his axe, and went to the forest on the east bank of the Creek to chop trees.

He didn't care about the species or size. Anything blocking his path was chopped down. Speaking of which, the west bank of the Creek wasn't actually suitable for clearing Farmland. That side was a hillside, and further west extended into a series of mountain ridges, undulating continuously, with no large, flat terrain to be found.

But the east bank was different.

Li Wei felt he could clear fifty or sixty Mu of prime paddy fields here.

Moreover, he didn't need to donate all this to the family. Keeping three to five Mu of private fields for himself would provide a decent annual income. Well, that was assuming trade routes could be opened.

Anyway, the current situation was fine.

In the following days, Li Wei fished, chopped trees, patrolled, prepared for spring plowing, weeded the Winter Wheat, carved Wooden Arrows and Wooden Spears at night, occasionally boiled Fish Glue to make Fletched Arrows, plus his daily training. He was busy from morning till night, but also felt incredibly fulfilled.

By the end of the month, he successfully accumulated 500 points of Fishing Experience and obtained a One-Star Fisherman Card.

[One-Star Fisherman Card: Water Affinity increased by 20%, Fishing Skill increased by 20%, Vessel Operation increased by 10%]

"So I oversimplified it back then. The Fisherman profession isn't just a simple agility-based profession. In the future, it might be worth fusing with the Woodcutter Card to see the effect?"

Li Wei was full of anticipation.

Then, on the last day of the month, he took out forty Catties of ordinary Wheat from the warehouse, preparing to use it for sowing.

"George, isn't it still a bit early to sow now?"

Fila stopped him because ordinary Wheat could be used to make white bread. The nearly one thousand Catties of Wheat harvested last winter hadn't actually been consumed much over the past winter.

Fila had been using fifty percent Chestnuts, forty percent wheat flour, and ten percent other materials to make Gray Bread.

She was saving up for her white bread.

Last month, she introduced the white bread recipe, and the demand for ordinary Wheat suddenly became urgent.

If she couldn't guarantee supplying white bread twenty times a month for the next six months, some of her contribution points would be reclaimed.

"Mom, don't worry. In another two months, the Winter Wheat will be harvested."

Li Wei comforted her but still insisted on taking the wheat away. He couldn't even wait until the main quest for next month was released.

Although sowing two Mu of Wheat Field could occupy a place in the main quest.

But somehow, he just didn't trust Thomas. Even though, according to Penny and Thomas's plan, as long as Li Wei impeached Fila this month, the only winner would be Penny herself.

Therefore, he would rather do more work this month and get the two newly cleared Mu of Farmland planted.

Once planted, half of the year's harvest was practically secured.

With grain in hand, one's heart is at ease. In the future, if he really got re-elected as the Family Head, he would have fewer things to worry about.

Yes, he could no longer think purely from personal interests. He had to consider the future of the entire family.

Because only by managing the family well could he improve the Clearance Evaluation.
