Capítulo 8: Impurities
Shi Tian reminisced about the battle from before and began to have a mental simulation of what happened.
When he recalled that his lack of speed caused the Armored Rats to easily catch up to him, Shi Tian lamented.
However, he began to think that his lack of strength caused him to be unable to fight back.
In other words, there were simply too many shortcomings in his ability that Shi Tian couldn't decide which stats to improve on first.
There are only 2 Free Attribute Points for him to use and without careful thinking, he could make a mistake that might result in his death.
Thus, instead of thinking about which one to choose from first, Shi Tian decided to eliminate those that he deemed useless at the moment.
The first one he chose to eliminate was the charm attribute.
Although charm could be quite useful, it would only be for certain scenarios.
And as of right now, charm is completely useless to him since monsters couldn't care less if you're handsome or ugly. In their eyes, you are only a prey for them to hunt.
With Charm being easily eliminated, there were only 6 attributes left to decide on, namely: Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Agility, Intelligence, and Luck.
'With my right arm still gone, dexterity wouldn't do much good for me either when I can only use one hand and two legs.' Shi Tian thought to himself, eliminating dexterity as well.
After some more process of elimination, Shi Tian was left with Strength, Endurance, and Intelligence.
These three were the current stats he required the most and luck was something that could not be calculated.
Hence, he didn't dare to gamble his life on luck in his current state.
"My Intelligence already has 3 stats points compared to Strength and Endurance. So let's add 1 on Strength and 1 on Endurance since I can't tell where the closest city would be." Shi Tian muttered, finally making up his decision.
Strength and Endurance were both needed when in a fight.
This was something that Shi Tian had learned painfully well when he was overpowered by the swarms of Armored Rats.
After clicking on the plus sign on the interface screen, Shi Tian instantly felt the change in his body and when checking his status again, the attribute points were modified.
[Attributes: Strength: 2, Dexterity: 2, Endurance: 3, Agility: 2, Intelligence: 3, Charm: 2, Luck: 1
Free Attribute Point: 0]
'So far the free attribute points are gained when I level up, but there's no indication of when I will level up. Information is too limited to determine if there are other methods to gain free attribute points.' Shi Tian exclaimed inwardly.
Shi Tian soon became tired despite his stamina bar remaining high. Having high stamina apparently does not correlate with his fatigue.
Given that his fatigue had reached the limit, Shi Tian stopped thinking too much and lay on the cold concrete beside the fire to sleep.
During his sleeping time, Shi Tian's body was gradually being modified with the new changes. His body muscle started to become toned and muscular, giving him a more masculine aura.
Time slowly passed by, and Shi Tian's eyes were soon blinded by the morning sun, flashing right through his eyelids.
Shi Tian used his left hand to cover the sunlight as he groaned slightly to get up.
He felt his body becoming sticky as he tried to lift himself up using the strength of his left hand.
Once his eyes were fully opened, Shi Tian noticed a puddle of black and gooey liquid beneath his pants.
"What the heck?" Shi Tian muttered, realizing that the black and gooey liquid came from his very body. It was no wonder why he felt sticky throughout his entire body and wished to be drenched in some fresh water to be cleaned.
"Are these the impurities of my body?" He asked himself, feeling confused by the situation.
Unable to withstand this uncomfortable feeling, Shi Tian quickly took off his clothes after much struggle and began wiping himself.
His upper body was now naked, but the clothes used to wipe off the black and gooey liquid could no longer be worn again.
As if his situation could not be any worse, this was completely unexpected to Shi Tian.
It was a good thing the morning sun was heating the surface quite well. Otherwise, Shi Tian might freeze to death without any clothes on.
Sometime later, Shi Tian decided to use the skin of the Armored Rat as temporary clothing to cover his upper body. He could not idle any longer and find some other places to reside in.
Not to mention, he had no idea of the current year and what the world had become ever since he was captured in a lab experiment.
Grabbing the carbon steel that was left over, Shi Tian held it tightly in his left hand as a weapon to defend himself. Monsters roamed around the area and he needed a weapon at the very least to have a chance to survive.
After getting everything ready, Shi Tian slowly left the abandoned place and continued to mindlessly walk forward.
Occasionally, there would be signs still remaining on the street, but the lettering on the signs was too decayed to be seen clearly.
"This is West Street huh." Shi Tian managed to identify some lettering on the sign above that was cracked in half. The street was desolate without any sign of a living being, and there would be rusted cars on the side of the paved road.
Just when Shi Tian tried to proceed with his walking, he heard a vehicle sound emitting from afar.
Without hesitation, Shi Tian hurriedly ran toward an alley to take cover and hide.
He dared not be careless and revealed himself right off the bat when he didn't even know who was operating the vehicle.
As he hid cautiously behind the alley, Shi Tian noticed it was a group of three people, two men and one woman in a truck.
The most alarming thing was that each one of them was carrying an assault rifle.
'What are they trying to do?' Shi Tian wondered silently.
