Kapitel 26: A Lone Bison
Redakteur: EndlessFantasy Translation
'I've gone too far. I must restrain myself a little bit in the future.' Jiang Cheng thought to himself, regretting his carelessness from the night before. He was an Evolver now and his senses were heightened, so he should have been able to sense when Pan Wei'an and Pan Xiaoan had returned.
Normally, he would wake up at the slightest sound, but last night he had slept through it all. He made a mental note to pay more attention in the future and not let his guard down.
Without wasting more time dwelling on it, he picked up Tong Xiaorou's clothes. He then took out a bison hide sheet and activated his fusing skill.
He wanted to strengthen Tong Xiaorou's clothes. Even if he couldn't strengthen them to Green-grade quality, he would at least strengthen them two or three times.
In this way, not only would they be durable, but they would also be able to protect her from danger. The clothes that had undergone fusing process thrice also had a strong defense against sharp weapons.
It was very easy for Jiang Cheng to strengthen them three times. He did not fail once.
After strengthening all Tong Xiaorou's clothes and shoes three times, Jiang Cheng began to strengthen his own pants, but he only managed to activate fusing skill on his pair of pants three times. Next were the shoes. They were also strengthened thrice, all with bison hide. With three points of toughness, these items would be more durable.
After pondering for a bit, he decided to strengthen Yaya's clothes as well, thinking that he could not be biased. The little girl might not need to participate in any battles, but she could be in danger. Furthermore, if the quality of the clothes was better, they could protect Yaya from being scratched by dead branches and vines when walking in the dense forest.
"Yaya, change into this set of clothes and shoes." Putting the enhanced clothes next door, Jiang Cheng said, "After that, give me the one you're wearing."
"Okay." Yaya didn't ask anything and obediently changed into her new clothes happily.
Taking the clothes and shoes that Yaya had taken off, Jiang Cheng returned to the tree hole and continued to strengthen their quality.
Finally, he strengthened the children's clothes thrice through the fusing process. After putting them away, he took out his Tang Dynasty Sword.
Since his HP had increased by 0.1 points in the afternoon the day before, he would definitely be able to increase it by at least another 0.1 points later, and his strength would be even stronger. Then, he would have no problem in wielding the heavier version of Tang Dynasty Sword.
Jiang Cheng contemplated, 'When I fuse the bison bones together, the outcome will likely to be an increase in material density. theoretically speaking, if a weapon's material density increases, its weight will also increase, resulting in a greater inertia during swings. Additionally, with the material's density increased, the blade would become more durable, and its sharpness could be considered to have increased to a certain extent."
With this in mind, Jiang Cheng took out regular bison bones and began the fusion process. First, he fused the regular bison bones to produce higher quality ones. Then, he fused those of higher quality to create bison bones of superior quality. Finally, he attempted to fuse a superior-quality bison bone into the Tang Dynasty Sword.
POOF!
Suddenly, the bison bone shattered, and the light dissipated.
"I can't believe I failed," Jiang Cheng was shocked.
He frowned slightly and examined the Tang Dynasty Sword's attributes. "The material density is only +3. The outcome of fusing bison bones into other objects will normally be an increase in material density... Last time, I used a bison bone that had only been strengthened once, and I still succeeded. Could it be that I was just lucky?"
Based on his previous experience in creating the Light-Green grade white shirt, Jiang Cheng knew that if the main body's attribute was "+3", he would need material with attribute of "+4" to have higher chance of success. Even after "+3", there was a possibility of failure even if he used materials of the same level.
Thinking of this, he tried to create a bison bone with density of "+4."
He had used up thirty-eight bison bones before he finally created a bison bone that had been synthesized four times.
"I hope there won't be any more accidents."
Jiang Cheng picked up his Tang Dynasty Sword again and brought the bison bone that had undergone fusion process for four times close to him and started to activate his fusing skill again.
Although he had a lot of bison bones, more than 3,000 of them, it was best to save as much as possible.
The white light appeared and became increasingly dazzling. When the light reached its limit, it slowly retracted until it disappeared.
The bison bones that had been fused four times also slowly shattered like they were weathered, turning into fine dust that scattered down.
"It works!" Jiang Cheng was delighted. As expected, he lowered his right hand, and Tang Dynasty Sword's weight increased.
[Tang Dynasty Sword (White): Density +4, Toughness +3]
Its density increased again, making Tang Dynasty Sword's weight to about nine kilograms heavier.
'Nine kilograms…That is eighteen pounds!'
It would take a lot of effort for an ordinary person to lift it, but Jiang Cheng could swing it easily.
Of course, he also knew that he would be fine if wielding it for a short period of time. However, if it went on for a long time, his arm would definitely become sore and sore, and his attack speed would be greatly reduced.
Moreover, with this weight and his current strength, the speed at which he could instantly swing his saber would be slightly reduced.
As the weight of the weapon increased, the inertia would also increase.
Therefore, JIang Cheng had to improve his strength again.
He stood up, walked out of the tree hole, and climbed up the giant tree.
"Brother-in-law, where are you going?" Yaya suddenly appeared at the entrance of the tree hole, looking anxious.
The family of three under the tree was startled awake.
Jiang Cheng turned around and looked at the little girl below. He smiled and said, "I have something to do, Yaya. Don't come here. Be careful not to fall. "
"Oh, don't forget to call me and my sister when you leave, brother-in-law," said Yaya, before quickly retracting back, perhaps afraid of annoying Jiang Cheng.
This movement woke Tong Xiaorou up. She reminisced about what had occurred the previous night in the tree shelter. Her face was slightly flushed, and she couldn't help but smile joyfully.
At this moment, Yaya came back. She pulled open the bison hide quilt and was about to crawl in when she suddenly saw her sister's naked body. She giggled and said, "Sis, you're not wearing clothes. How embarrassing…"
Tong Xiaorou's pretty face was slightly red. She hurriedly took the clothes beside her and put them on. Then, she asked anxiously, "Where's your brother-in-law?"
"Upstairs." Yaya said.
After she was dressed, Tong Xiaorou hurriedly climbed to the tree hole and looked up. After seeing that Jiang Cheng was really up there, she heaved a sigh of relief and returned to the tree hole.
It was then that she noticed that her clothes felt different. They seemed to be made of thicker fabric and weighed more than before. However, the changes were subtle and only noticeable to someone who was familiar with the clothes.
'Did he do something to my clothes?' Tong Xiaorou wondered. She had seen Jiang Cheng perform some kind of power on his own clothes before.
Although she didn't fully understand what he was doing, she knew that Jiang Cheng must have had a reason for it.
'Maybe he used his powers to strengthen my clothes?' Tong Xiaorou mused. She felt a warm feeling in her heart at the thought that Jiang Cheng was willing to use his powers for her.
Tong Xiaorou felt a sudden urge to do something for Jiang Cheng, but she couldn't think of anything that she could do to show her appreciation.
The only thing she felt capable of doing at the moment was being a good, obedient girlfriend. She could sense that Jiang Cheng's attitude toward her had changed significantly since he became an Evolver, and his affection for her was growing stronger.
Until she could think of something more meaningful to do for him, she resolved to just continue being a good girlfriend.
Back in their tree shelter, Tong Xiaorou laid back down and pulled Yaya close, a sweet and slightly anxious expression on her face.
...
POOF!
Jiang Cheng used Directional Collect to gather a huge branch from the giant tree twenty meters above the ground where Pan Wei'an's family of three couldn't see. A shower of fine wood chips fell down.
[HP +0.1]
Suddenly, he felt a slight heat spreading throughout his body. Though he couldn't feel much of a difference in his physique and strength, he could sense that his essence, qi, and spirit had increased.
"My level has finally gone up?!" Jiang Cheng exclaimed as he checked his status.
[Jiang Cheng (Rank 1): Level 11 (0.00%)]
[HP: 3.0]
[Gathering (Level 1)]
[Fusing (Level 1)]
"3.0 HP! " Jiang Cheng smiled.
If it was really as he had estimated, his HP was positively related to his strength. His currentl pure strength was equivalent to lifting the weight of 300 kilograms! And that was just in regular settings; his explosive strength could be even stronger.
As he was about to gain more experience, he suddenly noticed the tall, withered grass below him shaking slightly. A green-gray creature was slowly approaching him, which he soon realized was a green bison.
