"What should I do?" Tang Ling's empty gaze suddenly came alive like a burning flame, but it felt like the fire from hell as it was filled with hatred and rage.
He clenched his fingers and grabbed the strand of silver hair tightly.
Su Yao curled his lips into a smile as he stood up in a relaxed manner. With the cigarette still in his mouth, he passed the pot of meat soup to Tang Ling.
"Finish it first. Do you know what this soup is made of? It's a whole piece of Level 5 vicious beast bone! It's something that can never be wasted. Not even me. " Su Yao was telling the truth. In this era, wild beasts were the least dangerous, followed by vicious beasts. When it came to mutated beasts, even a Purple Moon Warrior might not be able to kill them.
Level 5 vicious beast bone, even the lowest level vicious beast bone, was extremely precious. As far as Tang Ling was concerned, other than the giant snake that Quark described as a vicious beast, he had never seen any other vicious beasts, let alone what a mutated beast was.
Tang Ling did not say anything in front of the precious meat soup. He did not care about how hot it was and did not ask why Su Yao would give him such a precious resource.
He grabbed a piece of meat from the soup and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed a few times and swallowed it.
As expected of Level 5 Vicious Beast meat. As soon as it entered his stomach, a scorching hot current exploded in his ice-cold stomach. Waves of energy, which he could clearly feel, quickly flowed to every corner of his body.
Tang Ling was weak. The burning heat made his stomach hurt and the energy stung his body, but he did not care.
He grabbed the meat and vegetables in the soup and stuffed them into his mouth without wasting anything. When he regained some strength, he grabbed the pot and drank the soup in big gulps.
He ate like a little vicious beast cub.
Su Yao did not think much of his table manners. Should a man not eat like that? Instead, he admired it.
In his world, there was no concept of a person who had been starving for a long time having a warm meal. In this cruel era, people were not that precious.
Thud! Tang Ling placed the empty can in front of Su Yao. He had been out for two days and starved for a whole day. Eating so much in one go was very uncomfortable for him, but it was not unbearable.
In fact, he was enjoying the explosive heat flow in his body. The feeling of power gradually filling up was truly addictive.
Tang Ling regained his strength. He supported himself and stood up shakily.
"What should I do?"
Tang Ling finally stood up straight in front of Su Yao. It was also the first time he sized up the man before him.
"What should I do?" Su Yao stuffed the remaining half of the cigarette into Tang Ling's mouth and casually tossed a few more things out from his backpack. He then said in a serious tone, "Let's enter the First Reserved Camp first."
The First Reserved Camp? Tang Ling's breath hastened again. The smoke he inhaled uncontrollably made him cough violently and the cigarette fell to the ground.
Su Yao picked up the cigarette nonchalantly and kept it in his mouth as he squinted at Tang Ling.
In this era, a pack of poor quality cigarettes would require two kilograms of good quality vicious beast meat to exchange. Not a single resource could be wasted. This had always been the most important rule of survival in this era.
Tang Ling did not have the mood to think about the value of the so-called cigarette. His mind was filled with the shocking words of the First Reserved Camp.
Once upon a time, the First Reserved Camp was where he looked up to because in order to become a Purple Moon Warrior, one had to be qualified as a reserved warrior.
The reserved warriors were divided into five camps, and the First Reserved Camp was the top among them.
There was a saying in the settlement that as long as one could walk out of the First Reserved Camp alive, he or she would definitely become a Purple Moon Warrior.
Tang Ling dared not hope for it. How small was his wish?! Even becoming a reserved warrior of the Fifth Reserved Camp was enough for him to live in the Safety Sector.
However, everything was shattered in Tang Ling's heart now. Instead, the blood-drenched knife gleam from that night was branded in the deepest part of his soul.
He did not want to enter any reserved camp anymore, not even the First Reserved Camp!
Following his hurried breaths, Tang Ling felt his blood rush to his chest and his eyes turned bloodshot.
The meat soup that he drank earlier was working. Compared to before, it was the first time Tang Ling felt powerful energy in his blood. A vortex formed at the spot where his heart was, devouring everything madly.
Something called rationality was slowly fading away.
The situation was not unfamiliar to him!
Su Yao crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at Tang Ling calmly. His lips curled into a meaningful smile. It was not until Tang Ling's eyes turned bloodshot that Su Yao walked up and patted Tang Ling's back with a heavy hand.
He did not use much strength, but he gently dispersed the energy that gathered at Tang Ling's heart. The blood that rushed to his heart also faded away like the tide and everything returned to normal.
"A man must know how to control himself." Su Yao turned around and flicked his finger. The cigarette butt that had been smoked to the end flew out of the window precisely.
Tang Ling did not notice the trace of sadness in Su Yao's eyes.
"If you want to search for power, the methods don't matter as long as you have a bottom line in your heart." When he turned around to Tang Ling, Su Yao returned to his nonchalant look, but his gaze was serious again. "So, what's the First Reserved Camp? As long as you're there, you can gain power and knowledge! Am I right? Kid? "
Tang Ling's breath had calmed down. The redness in his eyes slowly faded away. Somehow, he agreed with what Su Yao said.
At the same time, after the subtle changes, the blurry memories became crystal clear.
He remembered the changes that happened to him at the very last moment. His astonishing physique, powerful muscles, and the frenzied killing intent … The terrifying power that was hidden in his body!
"What's that?" Tang Ling pointed at his chest. He knew Su Yao must have known about it. Otherwise, he would not have done that to stop him from going berserk again.
Su Yao lazily curled up on the sofa and looked at Tang Ling with the faint smile. "I heard that puzzles that you solve yourself are more interesting. If I were you, I'd try to understand it before I control it. "
Tang Ling looked at Su Yao deeply. He was not stupid enough to press further because Su Yao obviously did not want to talk about it.
From the moment he went berserk, Tang Ling's originally poor and peaceful life had been intertwined with many puzzles. If he could not explore them for the time being, all he could do was adapt to their existence.
His cruel life had taught him that a long time ago.
After a few seconds of silence, Tang Ling shifted his attention to the item that Su Yao took out from his backpack.
It was a brand new black uniform with a purple pattern embroidered on the cuffs.
There was also a pair of shiny leather boots.
There was also a bronze medal with a crescent moon carved on it.
