NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1 Skill Extraction
The frontier of the world, beyond the fog.
Laka Forest
The scorching sun is already hanging in the air, swaying its own light toward the earth.
In a dense forest, the noon light can only cast a thin beam of light under the shade of branches and leaves.
"click"
A huge spider-like insect more than 1 meter in size is eating something. The sound of eating was accompanied by a fishy smell, which filled the air with a hint of fishy sweetness.
On a branch not far away, a young man was hidden among the dense leaves.
He was the hunter who dropped the bait to ambush the giant insect.
I saw him slowly draw a feather arrow from his waist and put it on the bow arm.
"Eagle Eye"
A short incantation murmured from his mouth.
After speaking, he quickly pulled the bow and shot the arrow at the spider.
"whoosh"
The sound of sharp arrows piercing the flesh sounded, which was proof of hitting the bullseye.
The flying arrows stuck firmly in the gaps in the carapace of the spider's head.
The carapace covering the whole body has to create some gaps in order to move the joints.
It is these gaps that become its weakness.
"Fizz!"
The piercing cry was emitted from the position of the spider's giant claws, and its eight limbs were frantically waving and struggling around.
The strength brought by the struggle caused fallen leaves and sawdust to fly around. The survival instinct begins to make it want to leave this place of right and wrong.
However, the running, struggling, and screaming didn't last long. After a while, the area became quiet. You could see the huge carapace spider shrunk into a ball, and the carapace on its body still tightly protected it.
Of course, the feather arrows inserted in the gaps in the head are also particularly conspicuous.
Perhaps it has been carried away by this arrow.
"whoosh"
Another feather arrow was savagely inserted into the gap in the spider's head, but there was no movement other than the swaying from the impact of the arrow.
branch shaking
A 16-year-old boy jumped down with the fallen leaves.
He is Kane, Kane Laflein.
With short black hair and a shiny hunting bow in his hand, it seems that its owner must cherish it very much. Wearing a brown-green hunting suit that is easy to move and hide in the forest, and on his back is a pot of delicate feathered arrows.
What is notable is the pair of eyes with eagle-like pupils that flash with a slight green light, but when they are opened, they return to human eyes with blue pupils.
The young man slowly touched the corpse.
Slowly came to the corpse and squatted down, confirming the death of the prey again and again, after confirming that it was already a corpse.
Kane removed a pillar-shaped copper-colored gem from his neck and placed it on the corpse.
"absorb"
After speaking, a faint shimmer began to float from the corpse, pouring into the gem like grains of sand, and the remaining transparency in the gem was quickly filled with copper color.
The corpse of the giant spider has obviously not changed, but it gives people a feeling that it is no longer "powerful".
"Beautiful! I wasted a week trying to track down this copper-colored magic power spider."
Looking at the columnar gems that had been filled with copper color, Kane said with joy and satisfaction.
Take out the hunting knife, quickly peel off the carapace from the corpse and put it in the bag.
This is a good thing, it can't be wasted, this one is worth 16 gold at least.
certainly
For other people, this armor is the only trophy, but for Kane, it's just a by-product.
His main trophy is the energy created by the shards of the soul mixed with magic after the creature dies.
He was originally an ordinary office worker on Blue Star who went home after get off work, played games, watched fanfic, and chased dramas.
I never thought that when I came home from get off work one day, I just turned on the computer and wanted to play a game, and suddenly it was dark, and people walked away so peacefully.
In a daze, he just thought about how tired he was.
When I opened my eyes again, it was a 14-year-old boy who was born in another world, surrounded by unfamiliar faces.
"But it's been two years since I came to this world, and this world is not bad. After all, it is a place with magical powers."
Thinking of this, Kane put his hand on the jewel hanging around his neck. This is the prop in the game he played when he got home from get off work, the magic stone.
His cheat, or system, is the same system as the player-controlled character in his game.
【Book of Adventure】
Game designers are designed to rationalize the player's system and background.
All functions are activated and used, and the filled magic stones must be used, and the book will produce blank magic stones.
Relying on the magic stone produced, it absorbs the energy of the killed creatures.
These magic stones can now allow him to extract useful skill stones from the system for him to use.
Of course this is only basic.
Kane pinched the magic stone, and characters instantly appeared in his sight.

But now it's not safe.
Forget it, go back and slowly check what ability it is, it is still important to hurry now, otherwise more danger will come.
...
The sun was half-hanging, slowly falling towards the side of the mountain, burning half of the sky red.
Dusk comes
The door of the town of Kara opened, and all those who needed to rest here at night were greeted at this time. After all, it's not very safe to stay out in the wild at night.
Kane appeared at the entrance of the town with a sheepskin bag on his back.
"Hey! Kane, how's it going? I think you've been busy for a week and haven't caught your prey yet?"
A sturdy middle-aged militiaman with a spear shouted to Kane on a wooden post at the gate of the town.
"This is my prey, Uncle Gem."
Kane patted the cloth bag on his back and signaled.
"Oh! Bless the fog, then next time you are in the tavern, you have to tell us about your hunting journey this time. It took the first hunter in Kara Town, and it took a whole week, hahaha."
"Haha, okay, then I'll go back to Uncle Gem first."
"Okay, let's go, look at your muddy body."

Say hello to passing acquaintances
Walk slowly through the town and come to the end of the town.
The stone house standing in front of him is the home of this life and the only thing left by the parents of this body.
in retrospect
Two years ago, when he first crossed, the original Kane fell by the small river in the town. After being discovered by Uncle Ram, he asked someone to help him carry it home.
When he woke up, he was already Kane.
The memory of understanding the body found that the original body was actually killed by the stone fruit on the tree.
