Chapter 56: Elementary Regeneration

Something appeared besides the health attribute.

Elementary regeneration!

    What is this?

Before Wei Xiao Bei was even able respond, he could feel that his body was being filled with vitality. Wei Xiao Bei looked down at his body in amazement.

The pieces of meat that the Shangfu had torn from him had started to recover. Wei Xiao Bei could even see his wounds gradually closing up, disappearing into nothing. Within minutes, all of his wounds were healed.

However, Wei Xiao Bei was conscious of the entire process. Not only did he feel the injuries heal, there was also an unbearable itch that followed afterwards.

He believed that the ancient torture techniques like having a goat lick your foot, or having ants go up your body, was probably better than this.

Naturally, he did not think too much on it as he was busy lying paralyzed on the bloodstained ground, rolling back and forth. He tried hard to suppress a small scream that had surfaced as he continuously rubbed his hands on the muddy ground to relieve the itch.

Luckily, the recovery process was not long. Wei Xiao Bei stopped struggling after only 10 minutes, gasping heavily in fetal position.

If the process continued for any longer, Wei Xiao Bei did not know if he had the strength to hold on any further. He felt that if that was the case, bashing his head into the ground until he was unconscious would be the best choice.

The pain was not over

After recovering and heaving on the ground, a stronger hunger suddenly rose up from within him, spreading throughout his body.

This was not a side effect of the healing, but because the body had used up too much of its resources, as well as the side effect of releasing electricity.

Wei Xiao Bei’s first reaction was to grab the pitchfork and run back where he came from, not even caring about the two Shangfu corpses.

After returning to his room, he immediately took out the jerky that he had stored, picked it up and placed it inside his mouth. He bit on the meat, tore it, and swallowed it without care.

After eating five pieces of meat, he finally stopped eating like crazy, and began to slowly chew on the meat while drinking water.

Only after satisfying the hunger inside his body, did he finally look at his status panel.

He fixed his attention on the new words ‘elementary regeneration’, and a description appeared in his head.

    So it was like that.

To speak frankly, the elementary regeneration’s use was to speed up his body recovery speed by 5 times. The body recovery focused on the muscles and the skin’s recovery speed.

In other words, if Wei Xiao Bei’s bone broke, he would normally need 100 days to recover. With the elementary regeneration, it would only need 20 days to recover.

However, his original 20 points of health had already increased his recovery speed, making it even more effective.

He thought for a bit and placed down the meat he was holding. He took out the knife on his waist and lightly cut his arm.

The knife of course, was extremely sharp; a light touch was enough for it to cut through him like butter. Soon, fresh blood flowed out from his arm.

However, in just a few seconds, the wound had already begun to close and the blood flow stopped.

He estimated that the speed of his recovery had altogether increased by more than 10 times.

Naturally, to recover fully from the injury, and make the scab disappear, he still needed more than 12 hours.

Even if it was like this, this kind of recovery speed was already enough to shock people.

If one day, a mad scientist noticed this, he might just become someone’s guinea pig.

Another important point was that the cause for his quick recovery from the Shangfu’s attack was not only due to his strong recovery strength, but also due to his attribute’s side effect: when he places points into the health, this recovery effect would become stronger.

Naturally, when he leaves The Dust World, the recovery effect would also disappear.

Another point he discovered with his meager intelligence was that his elementary regeneration skill appeared when his health attribute reached 20.

This meant that there was a chance to obtain new skills if any of his sub attributes reached 20 points.

About how to go about levelling his attributes, Wei Xiao Bei guessed that all he could was put more evolution points into it.

When he had increase his health attribute to 20 points, he was still left with 153 evolution points.

After experiencing a life and death battle, he had a better understanding of the reality of the dangers of The Dust World.

This meant that Wei Xiao Bei would no longer stock his evolution points.

The only question now, was where to put his evolution points.

As previously said, each of the sub-attributes below the main attributes had their own properties. Placing the right amount of evolution points would provide different benefits.

For example, increasing the sub-attributes below strength, would make his attacks stronger; while increasing his agility would increase his attack and movement speed; For vitality it need not be said that it was a life saving medicine……

Just like a while ago, his vitality had saved him.

Afterall, surviving, compared to other paths, was the most realistic one. What was the use of all the other attributes if you were dead?

However, now that he had found out that reaching 20 points in one sub-attribute would give him an ability, he began to hesitate on how to use his evolution points.

If asked about which ability would provide the best results after increasing the points, the current answer would be Bajiquan.

However, Wei Xiao Bei felt that having a master level of Bajiquan was currently useful enough.

Moreover, if he wanted to increase Bajiquan, he might need more than an estimated 300 evolution points, so it would not even be enough anyways.

As a result, he decided to put it in a sub-attribute to allow it to quickly reach 20 points and gain a new ability. Wei Xiao Bei believed that this was the best way to get stronger.

After checking out all of his sub attributes, his highest attributes were 13.04 points for muscles, 12 points for willpower, and 11.9 points for endurance.
