Upon completion of the simulation, you can choose one of the following rewards:
1. Choose a skill you possess.
2. All the wealth you have accumulated in your lifetime.
3. Your physique and physical condition at your peak.
Upon seeing these three options, Qin Che fell silent.
The second option is out of the question. In the end, the wife sold the house and bribed the jailer with the money, so it's definitely not an option.
His choice lies between first and third.
Qin Che really wanted to choose first place because his life in the simulator was almost the life of a craftsman. In such an era, it goes without saying how precious it was to learn a skill that one could rely on.
However, Qin Che's current situation is quite awkward.
He didn't even know if he could make it to Dune Fortress.
Because Qin Che had not eaten for many days and was only drinking water, he could feel his physical strength declining every day and becoming weaker and weaker.
Qin Che gritted his teeth; at this crucial moment, he had no choice but to select option three.
We should hold out for as long as we can. The best course of action is to find a sand dune fortress, whether it's doing manual labor or whatever, just to survive.
Qin Che chose three.
In an instant, a surge of power erupted from his body.
Qin Che immediately felt his muscles swell up, and the boundless energy revitalized him.
Looking down at his current state, he realized he was indeed in his prime. After all, in the early days of the simulator, he had been doing hard labor in Dune Fortress. Because he was still young in the early stages of the simulator, he hadn't suffered any illnesses, and thus his body was incredibly strong. Unfortunately, at the age of 26, his arm was severed by a cutting machine, and from then on, he was no longer at his peak.
Moreover, besides his physical strength, Qin Che also felt that his body was becoming more adapted to the desert.
He rallied his forces and began his trek, determined to find the sand dune fortress.
Qin Che had no intention of drinking his own urine. Unlike in the simulation, he didn't plan his drinking water intake from the moment he set off, only drinking a little bit each day, calculating a seven-day supply.
A day passed, and he was still in the desert.
Three days later, Qin Che's condition was rapidly declining, but he still had a lot of physical strength left.
Five days later, Qin Che had become much thinner. He was still in the desert, but his walking speed was getting slower and slower.
Until the seventh day.
Qin Che was drowsy and exhausted from days of travel and hunger, his strength pushed to its limit.
Humans can only live for a maximum of seven days without drinking water.
But because he had strengthened his physique and become more adapted to the desert, Qin Che felt he could hold on for a little longer.
But he really didn't have much water left.
This was the last day, and only a thin layer of drinking water remained in the kettle.
"Am I... going to die here?"
Qin Che could barely open his eyes, but as he crossed a sand dune, he saw a ray of dawn rising from the east.
A fortress stood before him!
