“Is there any big shot with a golden finger?! I beg to cling to your thigh!”
“Yes, yes, big shots with sign-ins, critical hits, or hundredfold resources, please adopt me!”
“Video verification available, can fly nationwide!”
“No, do you really believe that?”
“Isn’t that how it’s written in novels?”
“Can what’s written in novels be taken seriously?”
“Brother, you’ve already transmigrated, what else is there not to believe?”
...
Jiang Xun sighed helplessly.
He had “superpowers” even before he transmigrated!
He once thought he was the legendary protagonist!
It wasn't until ten years of using his “superpower” that he finally confirmed it.
His golden finger was useless!
His golden finger was:
As long as he concentrated, he could pull out a milk candy from his top pocket!
A White Rabbit milk candy!
Absurd, right? He thought so too...
And he couldn't get a lot; he could only pull out three or four pieces a day.
Eating them didn't give him any special abilities, it just gave him a few more cavities when he was young...
His ability was even more useless than the universally recognized most useless superpower: “controlling body hair growth.”
Fortunately, he could still use it to feed squirrels now!
And it could barely serve as emergency rations to keep him from starving to death...
Sighing, Jiang Xun continued to browse the chat channel:
“I gathered a 【Snowfield Winter Root】, and the system says it's edible!”
“That's nothing, outside my place are a bunch of fist-sized 【Wild Potatoes】, I gathered over a dozen!”
“Ah! Big shot, awesome! Can you sell me two? My area is barren, there's nothing to eat!”
“What are you guys talking about? Look at my 【Breadfruit】 and 【Sealed Spirit Spring Water】, eating them can even increase magic recovery speed by 10%!”
“Holy cow, big shot, awesome, how did you get all these things?!”
“I accidentally kicked a 【crystal ball】 in a bush just now, and these are the supplies it gave me!”
“What? There's a crystal ball too?”
“Yes, after the crystal ball shattered, I also obtained 【Crystal Shards】 * 4.”
“I found a package in a tree hollow called 【Magic Brocade Package】, which gave me a magic blueprint.”
“You’re lying, aren't you? My vicinity is a large plain, I can see everything at a glance, how come I haven't found anything?”
...
Everyone in the regional chat channel was discussing back and forth.
This also allowed Jiang Xun to learn more.
First, this Magic World has “treasure chests” that can yield blueprints and basic supplies.
The quantity is very small!
So it basically had nothing to do with Jiang Xun, who had maxed out his “unlucky” attribute.
Second, the basket of “fruits” that Squirrel Dad fed him were all good things.
Even a random fruit could permanently increase attributes.
They were much stronger than the “treasure chest” items others were flaunting in the channel.
This shows!
This squirrel, who only said “Wa La” every day, was truly bold.
He was freeloading food and drinks every day in the lair of some unknown powerful creature!
The rations left behind by this powerful creature now benefited both of them.
But... was that powerful magical beast really dead?
...
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Xun instantly broke out in a cold sweat!
No, no one told him that the “owner” of this place was dead, did they?!
Why did he assume that freeloading here was safe?
What if the magical beast came back from hunting later and trapped them both in the cave?!
A certain unknown giant beast: “My takeout arrived?”
...
Thinking of this, Jiang Xun quickly got up, grabbed “Wa La” and the fruit basket, and ran.
The journey there took him over ten minutes at a jog, but on the way back, he saw the exit in less than five minutes.
Once out of the forest, he reached the Magic Tent protected by a magic shield!
Full of security!
Of course, provided the “giant beast” didn't chase after them!
He didn't think his flimsy tent could withstand a giant magical beast over ten meters tall.
Stepping out of the forest, the sight before Jiang Xun made his eyes widen instantly!
He saw a bear-shaped creature, nearly two meters tall even when crouching.
It was currently extending its huge paw, eager to try something on Jiang Xun's tent!
The bear's fur was a deep black, faintly shimmering with a metallic luster under the sunlight.
As if every single hair contained mysterious magic.
A tuft of purple fur on its head was very conspicuous, making it look a bit “punk rock.”
Jiang Xun was startled!
A Magic World runaway?!
No? That's not the point!
What are you doing playing with my tent?!
The black bear magical beast turned around, its massive body almost completely blocking the tent's entrance.
The black bear raised its front paw and gently poked the tent.
The “magic shield” protecting the tent rippled instantly, even indenting a bit.
It seemed completely unable to withstand this level of attack, as if it could break at any moment!
This scene made Jiang Xun's eyes split with rage!
This “black bear demon” wasn't attacking at all?!
He was clearly playing curiously!
Jiang Xun was greatly alarmed. This tent was his only current safety guarantee.
If it were broken by this black bear, what then?!
What to do?
Run? Clearly couldn't outrun it!
Fight? Fight my ass!
More like delivering rations!
As Jiang Xun anxiously pondered a solution, the black bear seemed to sense something.
It suddenly turned around, its gaze meeting the stunned Jiang Xun's.
“No kasaya for sale!” Jiang Xun roared, then helplessly extended his staff, adopting a fighting stance.
With a “black bear demon” blocking the front and an “unknown giant beast” cutting off the rear!
The current situation looked like a dead end!
But Jiang Xun showed no fear in the face of death!
He had already lived long enough!
“Ah!”
With a loud shout, Jiang Xun attempted to scare away the magical beast in front of him using the universal method of “Animal Planet”!
At worst, he could die with a bit of dignity!
“Roar!”
Facing the “two-legged beast” much smaller than himself, the black bear magical beast responded without showing weakness.
At the same time, purple light emanated from its two gem-like small eyes, with faint electrical currents flashing, clearly intending to go all out!
Heh heh, it really was useless!
The end, hurray!
But friend, this all-out stance of yours, isn't it a bit too respectful towards me?!
At this moment, “Wa La” was also woken by the commotion, struggling out of Jiang Xun's chest pocket, its eyes fixed on the black bear.
“Hmph!!!”
Jiang Xun was unwilling, letting out another loud shout!
Since the “Animal Planet” method didn't work, he would try the universal method of the “Mythological World”...
“Evil beast! Why do you not submit?!”
While shouting, Jiang Xun's finger trembled as he pointed at the black bear, taking a step forward.
Anything was better than waiting to die!
After this furious roar, he suddenly saw that the black bear, which had originally had fierce eyes, suddenly had eyes as clear as a college student's.
It even lowered its body by half a meter, trembling as it took a large step backward!
It worked!
Jiang Xun was overjoyed!
Our ancestors truly didn't deceive me!
Then he took another step forward!
“Eh?!!!”
He indeed saw the “black bear demon” acting as if it had met its nemesis, burying its head even lower and shuffling back again!
It even pressed its head to the ground, covering its head with its paws.
Jiang Xun was suddenly a bit puzzled.
Was it that effective?!
Looking up again, he saw the black bear, while he wasn't paying attention, taking two or three leaps into the bushes.
It was agile, unlike a fat creature weighing several tons!
In a short while, its massive figure disappeared without a trace...
Jiang Xun was stunned watching, but he didn't dare to chase!
Although he didn't know why the black bear gave up its attack.
The result was good, after all!
He wouldn't be foolish enough to believe that a black bear weighing several tons would be scared away by two of his shouts.
But he still took advantage with his words:
Jiang Xun: The newly paved road is so smooth!
Black Bear:???
Jiang Xun: No pebbles, little brother!
Black Bear:??!
...
Jiang Xun tucked “Wa La” into his pocket and ducked back into the tent. After a long while, his trembling hands finally steadied.
Nonsense!
How could he not be scared?!
He quickly got up and checked all parts of the tent.
He found that although the tent was protected by a magic shield and was currently intact.
The central wooden “main pillar” had changed!
The pillar, which had been covered in a halo, now had half of its patterns become dim!
It was like... a phone's battery indicator, already at an unsettling 50%.
Jiang Xun roughly understood what was going on.
The “Sub-Magic Shield” outside the tent was clearly maintained by the “battery” of the main pillar in front of him!
When the “battery” ran out, it meant that the Magic Tent would become an ordinary tent.
Without the protection of the magic shield, facing various magical beasts, he would have no means of self-preservation!
