After learning a lesson from the wolf pack, Chen Yang realized that his current abilities were still insufficient to handle the various unexpected events in the micro-world.
He decided that after he was financially secure in the micro-world, he would start taking time to train himself.
Microworld also has a very convenient function, which is the digitization of body attributes.
When he first entered the micro-realm, his stats were 64 Intelligence, 38 Physical Strength, and 54 Combat Power. Now, all of his attributes have improved.
Realm Master: Chen Yang
Wisdom: 65
Physical Strength: 40
Combat strength: 60
Item: Blade of Tenacity
Subordinate citizens: Ou Huang, Li Su'er, Jiang Yining, Wang Bing.
Chen Yang attributed his intelligence to his recent increased mental exertion, only increasing by a single point. His physical strength, however, only rose by two points, while his combat power increased by a whopping six points.
The reason why Chen Yang's physical strength was able to improve was because of his extensive exercise in the micro-world. If he had been well-nourished, his strength would have increased by more than two points recently.
"It's a pity that the body in the micro-world is different from the real body, otherwise the display could also become stronger."
Chen Yang also paid close attention to the item section. The system's definition of items should be special tools that transcend common sense. The indestructible attribute of the Tenacious Blade is something that could not exist in the real world.
"Alien Yang, today's harvest is good. There's a pheasant, a sparrow, two fish, and a small shrimp."
Li Su'er and Wang Bing, who were in charge of inspecting the traps, returned in triumph, their faces beaming with joy.
They hadn't finished the deer meat; they smoked some to eat later, and the deer hide was drying to make underwear. The weather was getting cooler day by day, and the grass skirts were becoming less effective at keeping them warm. Chen Yang planned to go back into the forest to hunt again; they needed more pelts.
However, he planned to build a simple kiln first, which could fire some pottery, as firing it every day with bamboo tubes was not a long-term solution. He also needed a larger water container.
However, building a kiln is no small project and requires skill. Even a kiln for firing simple pottery cannot be built overnight.
Before that, he had to find suitable clay for making pottery.
The kiln construction still requires preparation; his main task now is to build fishponds.
In order to catch more fish fry, he and Jiang Yining wove fishing baskets together.
Jiang Yining learned some bamboo weaving techniques from her grandfather when she was a child, and she had no problem with simple bamboo weaving. She taught herself how to make a fishing basket online, and then she and Li Su'er wove it together.
However, Li Su'er broke down after knitting for two hours and switched jobs with Chen Yang, letting Chen Yang accompany Jiang Yining to knit.
In one day, the two of them only wove four bamboo baskets. Chen Yang, who was in charge of cutting the bamboo strips, had small cuts all over his hands from being cut by the bamboo strips.
The bamboo basket, which held so much hope, was thrown by Chen Yang into the stream he had discovered in the bamboo forest.
In the evening, several people sat around a campfire, one of them holding a bamboo tube filled with hot ginger tea.
"It's so nice here. There are no worries. I just want to live every day."
Jiang Yining couldn't help but sigh.
“Yes, we’re satisfied as long as we have enough to eat and drink. We can also build things up slowly. There’s always something to do every day, so we’re never idle,” Wang Bing added.
Li Su'er raised her ginger tea and said, "We should thank our alien boss for this! Boss, I'd like to toast you."
Chen Yang smiled, raised his bamboo tube, and clinked glasses with Li Su'er, saying, "I'll drink whatever you want, you drink yours."
"The boss just bullies his employees," Li Su'er said, pouting.
Chen Yang ignored her coquettishness, silently sipping his ginger tea and gazing at the setting sun in the distance and a single star already emitting a faint glow in the south.
He had specifically observed that the starry sky in the microcosm was different from that on Earth; he couldn't find those iconic stars or constellations that were common on Earth.
"We haven't seen the sunrise in the Micro Realm yet, have we? Why don't we go back to sleep and then enter the Micro Realm at seven o'clock? The sunrise should have just happened then."
Chen Yang suddenly said.
Every time they enter the Microverse, the sun has already risen, so they have never seen a sunrise in the Microverse.
They all readily agreed and then left the micro-world together.
After leaving the micro-world, Chen Yang did not remain asleep, but instead took the European Emperor to the kitchen to find food.
Little Lucky doesn't need to be carried much anymore. He runs around the inn all day, winning the hearts of many female customers and getting plenty of free food.
Chen Yang still can't figure out whether the European Emperor is a wolf or a dog.
He looked forward to the Emperor of Luck growing up quickly, until he was old enough to hunt. Then, he could point at the Emperor of Luck and he would catch rabbits and pheasants for him. Just thinking about it made him feel cool.
Little Lucky was unaware of the heavy responsibility he bore, happily eating dog food and drinking milk.
"Brother Yang."
Jiang Yining also came to the kitchen, smiling as she looked at Chen Yang.
Knowing that Jiang Yining was afraid of fire, Chen Yang conscientiously started boiling water to cook her a bowl of noodles. I can't say for sure about other things, but Chen Yang's noodles are pretty good.
Jiang Yining sat at the dining table and suddenly asked Chen Yang, "Brother Yang, what do you think of Su'er?"
Chen Yang wasn't exactly a person with high emotional intelligence, but he still managed to understand the underlying meaning of those words.
"She's great, pretty and lively, and she cooks delicious rice."
“I think Su’er likes you,” Jiang Yining said bluntly.
Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, unsure how to answer. He hadn't noticed any signs that Li Su'er liked him.
"Probably not, she's just someone I'm on good terms with."
"Don't underestimate a woman's intuition. I want to know what you think, Brother Yang."
Chen Yang silently cooked the noodles and said, "I really like Su'er. She's young, beautiful, smart, and kind... but I don't have any plans to date for now."
Jiang Yining looked at Chen Yang's back as he stood in front of the kitchen counter and asked, "Brother Yang, you must have a story to tell, right?"
"I'm happy as long as there are no accidents, no stories to tell."
Chen Yang scooped out the noodles, added the seasonings, mixed them well, and served them to Jiang Yining. "Eat up."
"Su'er is simple-minded. She may not even realize that she has feelings for you. If you really don't have any feelings for her, I will find a suitable opportunity to tell her. You should think it over carefully. There aren't many good girls like Su'er anymore."
"I will seriously consider it," Chen Yang said. "But so far, I have no ulterior motives, but maybe I will in the future."
“It would be too late then,” Jiang Yining said with a smile, and Chen Yang laughed as well.
Just then, Ye Wu suddenly appeared, staring blankly at the harmonious scene in the kitchen.
"Sorry, please pretend I was never here."
He turned and left decisively, but Chen Yang called him back.
"Just thinking about what's going on around me. I just got up in the middle of the night for a late-night snack. Do you want noodles? The water's still hot."
"eat!"
Ye Wu turned around without hesitation, then walked up to Chen Yang with a grin and put his arm around Chen Yang's shoulder.
"Well done, little Yangzi, you've finally escaped Mo Xi's clutches. Oh, no, you're still a virgin; you haven't even gotten close enough to fall for her yet."
Chen Yang glared at him, and Ye Wu chuckled twice before obediently shutting up.
"Mo Xi?"
Jiang Yining was somewhat puzzled.
“My ex-girlfriend,” Chen Yang said.
Jiang Yining nodded in realization, eating her noodles thoughtfully.
