[Bloodthirst: Slaughtering living beings increases lethality and durability. When durability is not at optimal status, this energy is used for durability recovery. Currently increases lethality by 1253 points, durability by 1253 points.]

[Killing Karma: Each time a living being is slain, that being's killing karma transforms into the Blood Soul's sharpness. Currently increases sharpness by 700 points.]

After entering the safe zone, he could finally check his attributes. This was the additional harvest from this pioneering expedition, aside from the supplies.

Compared to that massive number of monster casualties, the increase wasn't that much, but Xu Lang was already quite satisfied.

As long as there was improvement, he could keep repeating the grind.

Based on the current amplification, it was already more than double the original attributes of the Blood Pelican Demon Blade. One slash might look like one blade, but it was actually three, and all the power was stacked together!

The dormitory marking the Blood Pelican Demon Blade as an ultra-dangerous item had its reasons!

Because it could truly improve without limits!

...

Bathroom.

Water splashed noisily as Xu Lang used shower gel to wash his body.

[Animal Tamer Sequence Employment Conditions: Sequence Object (satisfied), establish a zoo with at least ten types of animals (satisfied), sleep with beasts for three days (1/3).]

Eight hours had passed since he returned to the dorm.

Sleeping while hugging the Ginkgo Wolf was too filthy, and he couldn't just sleep openly in the zoo, so after coming home, he directly rushed into the secondary bedroom to sleep with the wolf.

It was only because he could now automatically control his sleep, otherwise he'd still need some medication to be able to fall asleep.

After finishing his shower and going out, Cao Yaxuan and the others were already waiting.

Grinding points!

...

[Base Nightmare Coins 160, conversion rate 1649%, eight-hour production total 2798 Nightmare Coins.]

[Total Nightmare Coins 18585.]

Leaning against the headboard, Xu Lang flipped his hand and took out a pile of physique-based skill scrolls.

These skill scrolls were either high level or high rarity, all very hard to come by.

Because he needed to prepare for the attribute trial, the Transformation Card Fusion Series would have to be put on hold.

"The classification for melee combat systems is too extensive. Fist techniques, kicking techniques, martial arts, qi and blood, modern combat arts, beast form simulation, burst, speed, power, rhythm variation, distance control..."

Xu Lang was still quite shallow in close-quarters combat. If he had to say, he only had the Beast Form Fist, the Dragon Elephant Combat Method, and his previous experience dealing with serial killers in nightmares.

"Xu Lang, are you thinking about learning those combat skills?" Wang Yazhi also leaned back against the headboard and asked softly.

"Mn." Xu Lang nodded. "The skill types are too messy, it will affect my upper limit."

Brahman's words had been verified by Rainy Night Blade and the others, so they had to be taken seriously. Including Wang Yazhi and the others, everyone had become more cautious when selecting skills now.

"In this aspect, I think you can ask Heavy Armor Maniac, and also that Bai Wuya on the second floor. I've watched his fights, his combat skills are incredibly profound, he has at least one or two Grandmaster-level combat passive skills." Wang Yazhi said seriously.

"It's Grandmaster-level Sanda and Muay Thai." Sherry said lazily. "I saw introductions to many combat styles on the Book of Wisdom yesterday."

Xu Lang's spirits lifted. "Is that knowledge still there now?"

"It should still be there..." Sherry took out the Book of Wisdom, speaking with some uncertainty.

The Book of Wisdom unfolded, revealing many introductions to combat styles and their characteristics.

Xu Lang didn't recognize most of the combat styles, like the so-called Blood Abyss Army Combat Method, War Demon Physique Arts, or Ancient Secret Methods of the Different People.

There were also ones he recognized, like Sanda and boxing, which were widely known combat styles in human civilization.

"Tsk~ Grandmaster-level boxing can produce an airburst effect with just ordinary physical attributes!" Cao Yaxuan also leaned over. Seeing the description, she couldn't help but suck in a sharp breath.

"No wonder that Bai Wuya looks so arrogant, not even paying much attention to Li Shuwen." Zhen Lu clicked her tongue in admiration.

She was closest to Cao Yaxuan;they slept side by side and woke up together.

Next, everyone watched the Book of Wisdom together.

It was rest time anyway, and everyone's schedules had become less regular. They were lazy when they should be lazy and entertained themselves when they should.

Synthesizing the experience from these combat styles was certainly useful, but the usefulness didn't seem that great.

First, ninety-nine percent of the combat skills weren't available in the dormitory building. Second, they might not necessarily adapt to the dormitory building's game environment.

After reading the Book of Wisdom, Xu Lang had a rough idea in his heart, but he didn't rashly implement it. Instead, he brought over the radio. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

He wanted to go on the Blood Mist Mutual Aid Society and see if any veteran players were online.

This aspect required extreme caution, as it concerned the choice of his path. Once set out upon, it was almost impossible to turn back.

[Zero Number accesses radio signal.]

[Rainy Night Blade, Brahman continuously speaking...]

Zero Number: "Hey, Blade, you're online?"

"Zero Number? Is this your real voice?" Rainy Night Blade's mature male voice sounded surprised.

Xu Lang's mouth twitched. He forgot to use the voice changer.

But it didn't seem that important anyway.

Zero Number: "Mn."

Rainy Night Blade said happily: "Haven't seen you online for so long, I thought you were dead."

Zero Number: "Game time, busy!"

Mainly because there were more tenants now, grinding points was getting harder and harder, not suitable for turning on the radio.

Rainy Night Blade: "Ahem, you came online just in time. Let me tell you about the Blood Mist Mutual Aid Society's new rules... from now on, assembly times are changed to 7 AM and 7 PM."

Zero Number: "Is that so? That's good."

Rainy Night Blade: "You came online outside the assembly time this time, you must have something urgent, right?"

Zero Number: "Haha, you guessed right. I have something to ask Heavy Armor Maniac."

Rainy Night Blade: "Maniac? He's already dead."

Xu Lang, along with Cao Yaxuan and the others, were stunned.

That rough, somewhat mocking voice still faintly echoed in their minds.

Brahman: "My condolences."

Rainy Night Blade: "Life and death are normal."

The two veteran seniors sensed the silence on Xu Lang's side and offered words of comfort.

Zero Number: "How do you confirm he's dead?"

Rainy Night Blade: "He hasn't come online for several game cycles now... Whatever you wanted to ask, just ask me directly."

Zero Number: "Senior Brahman mentioned the issue of skill capacity last time. I want to learn some combat skills, not sure what the focus should be."

Rainy Night Blade: "Are you about to undergo an attribute trial?"

Zero Number: "Yes!"

Rainy Night Blade: "Haha, you should have just passed the fifth round of the game, right? Your style leans towards caution, you can't possibly go for an extreme stat allocation build. That means you get at least 30 free attribute points per round. Truly, the new generation surpasses the old!"

Xu Lang didn't ask how Rainy Night Blade guessed. After all their frequent exchanges before, that superficial information had long been leaked.

He had never asked such questions before, so suddenly asking now would definitely make people speculate.

Zero Number: "Almost. Do you have any relevant experience to pass on?"

Rainy Night Blade: "Brahman has experience in this area. His constitution is over two hundred and fifty points."

Zero Number: "Twice breaking the limit?!"

After one hundred and fifty attribute points, every additional hundred points required breaking the limit once, and the difficulty would become increasingly higher.

Each time breaking the limit was equivalent to shattering the attribute ceiling, reaching a higher level, completing a leap.

The real gap between attributes started from here.

Wang Yazhi and the other girls all listened with rapt attention.
