At this moment, Qin Feng felt a wave of fatigue wash over him.
After an entire day of battling and moving about, he was undeniably exhausted.
It was clear that he needed to rest and recover before continuing.
Fifteen minutes later, in the valley, Qin Feng had built a campfire.
Four wild boar legs sizzled over the flames, their fat dripping and producing a mouthwatering aroma that filled the air.
Sitting by the fire, Qin Feng pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.
When he descended from Blue Star into this killing world, items like his phone had been confiscated by Tiandao. Only his cigarettes and lighter had been left untouched.
Placing a cigarette in his mouth, he flicked his finger, summoning a small flame.
This was Flame Control in action!
Lighting the cigarette, he took a long drag, exhaling a stream of smoke with immense satisfaction.
Judging by the time, it should be close to sunset in the outside world.
Qin Feng activated the chat channel, diving into the lively discussions.
As always, the chat was bustling, but the topic had shifted.
"Ahh! I'm so tired! I can't take another step!"
"Same here! I've been fighting beasts all day—it's exhausting!"
"It's getting dark. We should rest. If we keep pushing like this, our bodies will give out!"
"Yeah, guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to level up again."
"Ughhh! I've only just reached Level 1 (67/100). It feels impossible to get to Level 2, let alone Level 10 in seven days!"
"Hey, don't worry! I'm only at Level 1 (71/100). Worst case, we die together as tragic lovers!"
"Upgrading is just too hard! I'm afraid to rest, but I'm too exhausted to keep going!"
"Weird, isn't it? All day long, and I haven't felt hungry—just tired."
"Same here!"
"Haha! It's simple. Killing beasts provides energy, far more than eating food ever could. That's why we don't feel hungry. But no amount of energy can erase fatigue. We still need rest!"
"Makes sense! Guess we don't have a choice but to rest!"
Qin Feng silently agreed as he read the messages.
Limitless fighting wasn't sustainable—humans weren't strong enough yet. Rest and recovery were necessary.
Just then, a rich, meaty aroma wafted by.
The roasted meat was ready!
Qin Feng exited the chat channel and turned his attention to the golden-brown meat dripping with fat.
Hunger surged within him. He cut off a piece of the roasted meat and took a bite.
The texture was superb—succulent and flavorful, rich but not greasy, with just the right chewiness.
One bite, and Qin Feng was hooked. He tore into the meat with gusto, juices dripping down his chin.
As the cooked meat entered his stomach, a wave of warmth spread through his body, rejuvenating him.
[Consumed cooked food. Stamina +1.]
[Consumed cooked food. Stamina +1.]
[Consumed cooked food. Stamina +1.]
"Huh? What's this?"
Qin Feng heard Tiandao's notification in his mind.
At the same time, he noticed that after just a few bites, his stamina was recovering rapidly. He no longer felt fatigued.
"So eating cooked food restores stamina quickly?"
This discovery was invaluable!
Overjoyed, Qin Feng devoured the roasted meat with even greater enthusiasm.
In just moments, he had polished off two pounds of roasted meat, fully restoring his stamina to peak condition.
[Announcement: Rookie Qin Feng has discovered a life hack—eating cooked meat to quickly restore stamina. As the first to make this discovery, Qin Feng is rewarded with +1 Reputation!]
Tiandao's announcement echoed in the minds of all participants.
For a moment, everyone was stunned—even Qin Feng himself.
Seriously?
He hadn't expected to earn reputation points for such a simple act. It felt almost too easy!
The chat channel immediately exploded.
"What the heck?! Cooked meat restores stamina?"
"Haha! Amazing! We finally have a way to recover stamina quickly!"
"Reputation points are so hard to come by! Qin Feng's luck is unreal!"
"Seriously, how did he figure this out? Why couldn't I have been the first?"
"Reputation! One whole point of reputation! So valuable, and I missed my chance!"
"Come on, guys! Be honest. How many of us were focused on eating roasted meat today? Everyone's been busy hunting beasts!"
"Exactly! Looks like Qin Feng's been taking it easy."
"I was wondering why his name turned gray and his rank kept dropping. Turns out, he's just chilling somewhere, living the good life!"
"While we're out here fighting for our lives, Qin Feng's on vacation. So jealous!"
"Forget this! I'm finding food to cook and restore my stamina!"
As the chat buzzed with excitement, another Tiandao announcement sounded.
[Reminder: Only cooked food and hot water can quickly restore stamina. Raw or cold food is ineffective.]
[Announcement: The interdimensional trade channel is now open!]
The new announcements sparked a fresh wave of chatter.
"What?! Only cooked food works? But I don't have any fire!"
"Same here! How are we supposed to cook without a fire starter?"
"Anyone know Flame Control? Help me out!"
"Are you dumb? The only one with Flame Control in our village was Liu Yunchang, and he was killed by a Raging Wild Boar!"
"Great! Guess I'll have to rub sticks together..."
"Wait, does this mean I need to cook my apples before eating them?"
"Hold up! You have apples? Did you bring them from Blue Star?!"
"Guys, I just tried rubbing sticks together—it's useless. My hands are covered in blisters. Who has a lighter? I'll pay through the trade channel!"
"Yeah, the trade channel is open now. This could be a game-changer!"
Amid the lively discussions, another announcement popped up.
[Announcement: Rookie Qin Feng has listed a new item in the interdimensional trade channel. Three pounds of roasted meat in exchange for one Level 2 beast corpse.]
[Announcement: Rookie Qin Feng is the first to use the interdimensional trade channel. Reward: +1 Reputation!]
