Chapter 1 System Notification

"System Notification: Congratulations to player [Nightfall Dawn] for killing the anomaly [Strength-Body Anomaly]. Rewarded with +8 Strength Control, +8 Force Dissipation, and +1 day of lifespan."

It’s finally dead!

Earlier, when the anomaly was slashed to the ground with a single blow, everyone thought it was dead.

But Fang Yue was someone who had killed anomalies before, how could he make such a low-level mistake?

As long as the system notification didn't appear, he would keep beating it to death. He had never neglected the good habit of finishing blows.

It wasn't until he saw the system notification that Fang Yue's tensed nerves relaxed all at once.

The next moment, Fang Yue collapsed like a deflated balloon, his limbs limp, and he fell to the ground.

He felt as if his entire body was so exhausted that he didn't want to move even a bit.

[Breath of the Night] was indeed powerful, but its power was limited to [Injury Recovery] and [Rapid Blood Recovery], with no increase in stamina.

So Fang Yue was now physically exhausted. He wouldn't be able to get up without resting for a while.

But on his face, there was a big silly smile.

Because the reward for killing the [Strength-Body Anomaly] was simply too awesome.

It could be said that it was the most generous anomaly in terms of rewards, except for the [Index Finger Anomaly].

Let's count the gains.

+8 Strength Control, +8 Force Dissipation, and 1 day of lifespan.

Lifespan aside for the moment, with the addition of these 8 points to both attributes, Fang Yue felt like he was going to be invincible again!

He didn't even need to doubt that as soon as he posted his attributes on the forum, the entire forum would explode immediately.

Things like "Brothers, type 'invincible' on the screen!" "I'm willing to call you the strongest player in *Azure Sea*!" "Hard evidence of cheating, request account ban!" would definitely flood the screen like crazy.

Keep a low profile, keep a low profile! Resist the impulse, make a fortune in silence.

At first glance, Fang Yue's strength was bursting.

But in reality, if it weren't for the special effect of [Breath of the Night] which allowed for crazy health regeneration.

His strength was not as good as the captain-level, but higher than the vice-captain level.

Fang Yue created a name for this kind of strength that was not good enough to be at the top, but more than enough to be at the bottom—

“Name: Nightfall Dawn.”

“Realm: Acquired Third-Rate.”

“Status: Anomaly Curse [Right Hand], Pill Poison, Exhausted.”

“Health Points: 200/200.”

“Inner Force: 25/25.”

“Strength Control: 42[+20-3][25].”

“Force Dissipation: 42[+20-3][25].”

“Talent: Breath of the Night (Human Grade, High-Rank).”

“Skills: Analytical Eyes (Human Grade, Low-Rank), Starlight Saber Art 1st Layer (Acquired Third-Rate), Starlight Heart Sutra 1st Layer (Acquired Third-Rate).”

“Lifespan: 8 days and 8 hours.”

Status bar? Status bar, what's wrong with you? Blink if you've been kidnapped! So many statuses, are you trying to build a Mejai's Soulstealer for me!

And your lifespan, you're learning bad habits from the status bar, why can you eat so much all of a sudden? I haven't even gotten through one night yet. Good heavens, a reward of 13 days + 1 day of lifespan, adding up to 14 days of lifespan, and you directly ate it down to 8 days?

Fang Yue's scalp tingled a little.

The good mood from just killing the [Strength-Body Anomaly] disappeared by half.

Am I going to be tormented to death by this body?

Consuming so much lifespan to kill the anomaly. In the end, the rewarded lifespan after succeeding was actually a loss overall. How am I supposed to play like this!

It’s okay to throw a tantrum, but the problem still needs to be solved.

Fang Yue stared at the status bar with a grim expression.

“Name: Pill Poison.”

“Effect 1: [Drug Poison] Continuously reduces health.”

“Effect 2: [Lifespan Reduction] Increases the efficiency of any form of lifespan loss.”

“Description: The poison of pills enters the body, and accumulated toxins are difficult to eliminate. Depending on the pills taken, the effects of the pill poison vary. Usually, they all have the effects of toxins corroding the body, consuming blood, and reducing lifespan.”

“Note: Pill-popping dog, keep popping! If you keep popping pills, you’ll ascend to heaven on the spot! Spiral explosion! Boo!"

But even before he could blink, his health was restored to full by [Breath of the Night].

Ah?

This?

This is pill poison? In a word, I want to roar!

As the saying goes, Fang Yue isn't even afraid of rainy days, would he be afraid of this kind of old-age health-draining trick?

Of course, if it drains health during the day, then it still needs to be respected.

Currently, Fang Yue directly ignored this so-called [Drug Poison].

It was the [Lifespan Reduction], the second effect in the [Pill Poison], that really made Fang Yue's scalp tingle.

Clearly, the fact that his lifespan had decreased so much was definitely its masterpiece.

“Good heavens, I’ll find Lord Han to help me later and make sure to kill you, [Pill Poison].”

Just as Fang Yue thought of this, he suddenly perked up and felt much more relaxed.

Immediately afterward, the system notification rang.

"System Notification: [Pill Poison] status has been removed."

Fang Yue: …

Couldn't you have held on a little longer? You're just short and fast, aren't you? Ruthless after removing the poison?
