Not long after, at the corner of the street.
Li Song’s figure appeared again. He ran over to the two corpses and touched them with his hand. All of them entered his warehouse. The same type could be stacked, and the three huge corpses only occupied one slot.
Li Song then ran to another street in satisfaction.
It was not that he did not want to pretend to be an expert and leave directly. The problem was… no matter how weak the lizard was, it was still meat, right?
Even if this corpse was useless in the end, he could still use [Resale] to sell it back to the system!
He saw it on the forums during his free time. Some people have tried the system’s Resale function already. He did not expect the results to be…
[Rock Tossing Lizard] killed, EXP+15!
[Rock Tossing Lizard] killed, EXP+15!
[10x EXP] activated!
Currently, Bull Two’s level was: [Abyss Tauren Level 4 (0/300)]
The experience from killing the two Rock Tossing Lizards made Bull Two level up twice in a row. The Tauren’s height seemed to have increased a little. He did not know if it was an illusion, but the two bull horns seemed to have become sharper as well, making them look more lethal.
As a result, Bull Two’s strength increased by quite a bit. As expected, Li Song also benefited from it, and his strength also increased greatly.
Compared to the beginning, Li Song estimated that his strength had at least doubled!
“I should be considered a superhuman now, right?”
It was still good to be a freeloader!
How could he rely on himself?
However, the battle just now also made Li Song discover some problems. Although the Blood Pact gave him a 100% or even 120% of the growth in strength, due to the differences in race, muscle density, and bone mass, the strength he could exert was still much weaker than Bull Two.
It was just like how Bull Two was able to lift a Rock Tossing Lizard at just Level 1.
After leveling up, Li Song still could not do this.
This was the difference between races. In other words, humans still had their limits.
This discovery also sounded an alarm bell in Li Song’s heart. If he were to completely use Bull Two’s growth formula on himself in the future, he would probably get beaten up badly by others…
Time passed slowly. Li Song and Bull Two wandered around the entire Radiant Crystal district. Through the surveillance cameras, they quickly cleaned up the remaining Rock Tossing Lizards. Perhaps because it was the first wave, there were not many monsters in the district. There were only twenty of them.
They were all Rock Tossing Lizards.
They were even far apart from each other. In the end, the pair only killed thirteen of them.
Moreover, these guys’ abilities were suppressed, and their leveling speed was extremely fast. The last one that Li Song killed had already reached Level 6!
This was a terrifying speed.
One had to know that even if Li Song had a cheat, Bull Two had only reached Level 8 after one night!
The experience points from Level 8 to Level 9 also reached a total of 1,000!
Even if it had ten times the experience, it still needed to kill another 20 Rock Tossing Lizards! After leveling up, the Rock Tossing Lizards only gave him a mere 5 experience points.
If it were anyone else who had such a speed of leveling up, they would probably be so excited that they would be swinging their arms in joy. However, Li Song, who had been through this before, was very clear about this.
Now that its level was low, it did not need much experience.
But in the later stages, the experience required for every level up would be immense! It would be difficult for something like this to happen overnight.
Moreover, there was a hurdle whenever the Tamed Beast’s level reached a multiple of 10, and every 20 levels was a huge hurdle. At that time, it would not just be a matter of experience points anymore!
Otherwise, Li Song would not have been forced to make his own cheats…
He was a bit scummy, but compared to the “game developer”, he was as pure as a white lotus flower.
However, the strength of Level 8 had far exceeded Li Song’s imagination.
His current strength had probably already reached several thousand kilograms. With a punch, the wind produced by his fist could even break the air!
He could easily jump three to four meters!
Even his five senses, reaction, and dynamic vision had reached an extremely high level. A clumsy monster like the Rock Tossing Lizard no longer posed much of a threat to him. He could even rely on his reaction to dodge the cannonball-like rocks.
He was really a superhuman!
The reinforcements from the troops finally arrived in the end, it was possible that they were held back in other areas. Li Song saw their figures from the surveillance video from afar. He simply kept Bull Two in his Tamed Beast Space and turned around to quickly return home.
There was still a long way to go before he would snatch monsters from the army…
What if he was fighting and the troops thought that Bull Two was also a monster? If that happened, he would suffer an immense loss for nothing.
He would probably die on the spot too.
The entire Radiant Crystal district was considered a relatively remote area in Shanghai. The reinforcement of the troops was considered slow. The rest of the areas were probably already taken care of.
After all, the mobile phone was still not convenient and the computer was not in front of him. No matter how good Li Song was, he could not hack without the proper tools. He could only take a simple look at the surveillance video to make some judgments. The information he could obtain was still too little.
However, the announcement on the forum from the spokesperson, Liu Zhengyu, proved Li Song’s guess.
The first wave of [Release] in Shanghai ended.
No one knew when the second wave would arrive.
When he returned home, Li Song met his neighbor in the elevator.
She looked exhausted. Clearly, she had been busy all night.
The atmosphere in the elevator was very quiet.
The current relationship between neighbors was no longer “better a close neighbor than a distant brother” as the old saying went. Everyone was rather busy, and no one was willing to spend more effort to maintain unnecessary relationships, especially young people.
Therefore, Li Song and his neighbor knew each other, but that was all the relationship they had, at most, they knew each other’s name.
Zhou Dan wanted to say something but hesitated a few times. In the end, she could not help but remind him, “Mr. Li, this is a dangerous period of time. If it’s not necessary, it’s best not to go out.”
“Yeah.”
Li Song was not stupid, he knew about her job. He answered softly and explained, “I went out for a morning run. I’m used to it.”
Zhou Dan: “…”
You’re really lying through your teeth!
Do you believe this lie yourself?
Looking at Li Song’s messy clothes, Zhou Dan opened her mouth but did not say anything.
This neighbor was a strange man.
She had always known about this. They had lived together for almost three years, and she had only seen this person a few times. She only saw him occasionally when she was dumping the trash. Although he often had a gentle smile on his face, he exuded a cold and distant aura.
She did not know if this person had any friends or what he relied on to make a living. She felt that this person was a little sinister too.
He was not easy to get along with.
They looked ahead at the lift door. After reaching, they did not say a word.
Li Song took out his keys and opened the door. The voice behind him sounded again.
“Mr. Li, it’s a dangerous period of time. Although your morning runs are healthy, you should try not to go out.”
“You should have seen the discussion forum. Many monsters were released yesterday, and many people died.”
“The country will issue a stay-at-home order today. Other than the public officials, everyone else should be at home…”
Li Song paused for a moment before nodding. He opened the door and closed it in one action.
“Ugh…”
Zhou Dan had good intentions, and if someone else heard such news, they would probably be happy.
After all, the monsters outside were so scary. If he stayed at home, there would be people protecting him outside. Furthermore, they would help him solve his problem of having meals. Only China could do such a good thing.
But no one in this world knew Tamed Beasts better than Li Song.
If no one went out and relied on the military to provide food, not many people in Shanghai would survive after three months.
In fact, it would not even take three months. If a few more waves were released, everyone would be wiped out.
However, whatever Li Song could think of, the higher-ups could naturally think of as well. He reckoned that in another period of time, they would probably encourage everyone to go out.
Economic considerations and the three-month protection limit made this inevitable.
Of course, if Li Song had to look at this from a sinister point-of-view, the reason why they would not encourage everyone to go out for the next few days might be due to the hoarding of experience points…
They definitely knew that killing monsters could allow one to level up.
A great man had once said that ‘political power grows out of the barrel of a gun’. Now that individuals could gain incredible power, the importance of personal strength was needless to say.
Li Song was not afraid of people finding out that he had gone out. He had the entire Radiant Crystal district’s surveillance cameras under his control, and he had dealt with all of his appearances on camera.
He put this matter aside.
Li Song opened the system and looked at the [Resale] function.
