I Stack Attributes in the Apocalypse

Chapter 91: Skill Harvest

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the moment the tower rose, the black mist appeared around Nanxiang City.

The black mist encompassed the entire Nanxiang City, as well as the surrounding three satellite cities, 14 small counties, and hundreds of villages and towns under the jurisdiction of Nanxiang City.

This area was actually quite large.

There were also quite a number of people within the range of the black mist.

Therefore, Lu Ming had always held the belief that the outside world was very dangerous.

Because of its vast territory, there were many people.

With many people, there were many survivors, and also many zombies.

With so many survivors and zombies, it was easy for some strange things to emerge.

Because of this, Lu Ming had never considered himself to be exceptionally strong, much less that he was the number one in the world. Naturally, he would never stop farming attributes.

Day 74. of the Apocalypse Calendar, Wednesday.

Huo Sheng came to visit again.

Aside from checking whether Wei Lan’s work met the standard, Huo Sheng had another purpose for visiting Guangping Street.

“These are the martial arts experts you need, Mr. Lu. I’ve brought them all to you.”

Behind Huo Sheng stood eight individuals of various shapes and sizes. When they saw Lu Ming’s gaze sweep over, they cupped their hands at Lu Ming and said, “Greetings, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Ming replied, “Hello, everyone.”

The official shelter had a large population and it had already surpassed 100,000 people. It was not difficult to find a few people who knew martial arts among them.

Of course, there was no need to count on their skill levels—but Lu Ming did not need them to be highly skilled in martial arts. It was enough if they could trigger the skills for him.

Otherwise, encountering situations where he spent hours fighting zombies without gaining much skill proficiency, like before, would be a waste and embarrassing.

After a brief introduction, Huo Sheng left to find Meng Jie, leaving time and space to Lu Ming and the eight “martial arts experts.”

Without needing Lu Ming to say a word, Zhang Chengcheng spoke, “Masters, can you briefly introduce yourselves and your expertise?”

Before these eight people came, they had heard of Lu Ming’s name. Now that Lu Ming was in front of them, the eight of them immediately respectfully introduced themselves.

Some practiced martial arts.

Some practiced the saber.

Some practiced the sword.

Some practiced staff techniques.

In short, there were a variety of skills, which suited Lu Ming’s preferences.

After everyone finished their self-introductions, Lu Ming smiled and said, “Shall we begin in the afternoon?”

The eight of them immediately nodded, “We’ll follow Mr. Lu’s arrangements!”

The regular exercise time in the morning could not be delayed.

After lunch and an afternoon nap, Lu Ming got up, washed up, and immediately went out. He saw the eight people lining up in front of his house, waiting for a long time.

Without further ado, they began.

From one o’clock in the afternoon until dinner time at five o’clock, Lu Ming successfully achieved his goal.

However, just by looking at Lu Ming’s tightly furrowed brows during dinner, one could tell that Lu Ming had gained something, but it was not a huge gain.

After dinner, Lu Ming returned to his room, sat at his desk, and opened the attribute panel again.

There is one thing to celebrate:

After experiencing systematic learning, the saber, sword, and staff techniques, just like spear techniques, were stripped away from cold weapon combat – after all, the path of weapon techniques was extensive and profound. Using a single cold weapon combat technique to summarize all weapon techniques was no different from a generalization.

There were two regrets:

Firstly, fist and foot techniques were not separated from hand-to-hand combat. They were the essence of modern fist and foot martial arts and had long been integrated into modern combat arts. A mixed martial arts technique and a few grabs were enough to summarize the essence of hand-to-hand combat.

Of course, it could also be that the master who taught the fist and foot techniques was not very skilled… But Lu Ming was too embarrassed to say this to his face.

Secondly, there was only one stance technique that he had obtained in the afternoon.

It was the Tiger Step Stance.

This was taught by a saber master. Other masters would not use moving stances like the Tiger Steps Stance or the Resistance Stance.

“So in summary, 1 gained four skills in one afternoon.”

With this thought in mind, Lu Ming relaxed his frown.

“It’s not bad.”

Of course,gaining skills was only one aspect.

Practicing the skills, improving skill proficiency and level to gain more attribute points, was another aspect – and this was destined to be a long process.

But to talk about time and effort… Heh, this was what Lu Ming was least afraid of!

Those without a system would not know how satisfying it was to diligently exercise every day and see their own growth in such a tangible way!

With a powerful stretch, Lu Ming yawned lazily. As he walked out the door to practice stance technique, he indulged in daydreams of a bright future.

Swoosh!

Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!

What a fulfilling and secure life!

Afternoon nap ended, Lu Ming woke up and opened his attribute panel. He saw his extremely luxurious attributes!

Powerful, exaggerated, and beyond comparison!]

Of course, Lu Ming knew that his current attributes were formidable and his abilities were very terrifying!

However, strength and weakness had always been a relative concept—even a one-year-old baby was very strong compared to an ant.

Perhaps in the eyes of someone stronger, Lu Ming was the baby that was compared to an ant.

Therefore, Lu Ming never felt satisfied.

He recalled the conversation between Zhang Chengcheng and him yesterday.

“Brother Lu, you’re already so strong. Why do you still persevere in your exercise every day?”

Lu Ming only had one answer to that, “I’m strong, but not strong enough.”

Cheng Cheng asked again, “When will you feel that you’re strong enough?”

This question made Lu Ming think for a long, long time.

Finally, he gave an answer, “There will be no end to my path to becoming stronger.”

At the same time, quietly in his heart, he added, “If there is, it will only be the end of the attribute panel! Not my end!”

At the edge of the black mist.

A staggering figure emerged from the black mist and returned to the sunlight.

The sunlight shone on his body, making Chang Yi feel warm from his body to his soul.

Looking up at the sun above his head, Chang Yi suddenly laughed wildly!

“Level 5! Level 5!”

“I knew it. the opportunity for Level 5 was in the black mist!”

Taking a deep breath, Chang Yi solemnly tucked a small notebook into his clothes.

He threw his head back and laughed wildly, his high-pitched voice echoing through several blocks.

“I! Chang Yi! I’m invincible!”
