"Hey, by car, are you going to Lofes City?"

A shout from a nearby tavern drew Phil's attention. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was a rough man with a height of eight feet, but the clothes on his body were very luxurious.

With his shout, several horsemen from the carriages around the tavern rushed up.

Phil nodded to the old woman, jumped out of the carriage, and squeezed into the middle of the grooms.

"You, you, you......" The rough man pointed to a few grooms with his index finger as if picking out goods, and finally, looking at Phil in the crowd, "and you, although a little thin, but you are quite honest, so be it." ”

"Thank you, sir!" shouted Phil and the other chosen grooms.

"Clean up at noon, and hurry to the front of the town to gather, don't be late. The rough man shook off a word, turned and left.

And the grooms dispersed.

With a yellow earth-colored face, a thin body, wearing a yellow linen coat and a gray hood, this is what Phil looks like now.

After a year on the run, Phil had already left behind his status as the eldest son of the nobleman and had some means of survival.

Now he is an honest horseman who has come from far to work in the frontier carriage, and Lopis City, the border city of the Kingdom of Austin and an important trading city between the Atlantan Empire and the Aldor Empire, Phil hopes to find a way to escape from the country in this city.

From this day on, Phil began to live as a groom around the city of Lofes. Sometimes it's a giveaway, sometimes it's a delivery, Phil is like a drop of water that blends into the city of Lofes.

On the outskirts of the western part of the city of Lofes, in a civilian area.

A complex of low, dilapidated buildings, called a civilian area, but in fact everyone calls it a slum, and it is inhabited by people from all over the kingdom of Austin.

In the corner of the slum, a wooden house that looked the same as the one next to it creaked open, and a middle-aged man with a yellow face stepped out of it.

"Hey, Yellow-faced Ender, is there a job?" the person next to him immediately exclaimed when he saw him.

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "The work is difficult to do, go up the mountain, go up the mountain!"

This is none other than Phil, who goes by the pseudonym Ender.

Ever since he arrived in Lophas City a month ago, he had realized that his previous plans were a bit naïve. Because although the city of Lofes is a commercial city, it was actually built as a defensive fortress, and even now it is a military camp in Dongcheng District. Moreover, the passage in the city must be checked everywhere, and clothing, food, housing and transportation need to show identity certificates, and if you want to live in it by fake identity documents, it is tantamount to ascending to the sky.

Fortunately, Phil did not encounter such a situation, and immediately went to live in the slum on the outskirts of the West City temporarily.

Later, while continuing to work as a groom, he secretly searched for a way to cross the city of Lofes.

But today, he does neither.

After walking for a while, he took out several pieces of equipment from a hidden cave, including long knives, bows and arrows, and animal traps and other hunters' equipment that could be bought outside the city.

Wearing them one by one, Phil did not delay any longer, walked quickly towards the mountain forest, jumped a few times, and disappeared between the bushes and trees in an instant.

"Drop! serpentine found nearby!"

Hearing the familiar reminder of the cactus in his mind, Phil was overjoyed as he ran, put his right hand on a branch, and turned over and stopped.

The surrounding images immediately appeared in front of me, except that the images were black and white, with only a green fluorescence flashing somewhere.

Discerning the direction, Phil Yitu looked for the past, and in a bush of green grass, he saw a "ring snake" crawling on the ground.

This is actually a kind of grass with a pattern similar to a ring snake, which is quite common in the mountains and forests, but ordinary people will not pay attention to it even if they see it, only Phil is different.

Without hesitation, Phil dug open the root of the serpentine grass, revealing a small green rhizome.

Phil plucked the rhizome, took out the kettle to rinse it, and threw it into his mouth.

The smell of mud immediately spread in his mouth, as disgusting as mud that had accumulated in a stinking ditch for years, but Phil frowned, resisted the desire to spit out, and swallowed it.

"Drops, are absorbing abnormal substances, and their physique has increased to a very small extent. ”

Hearing this prompt, Phil couldn't help but smile.

Three weeks ago, he began to hunt in the mountains and forests, and after eating the tongue of some animal, he found that the cactus chip immediately prompted as it is now, but the constitution was replaced by strength.

He immediately understood that this was an opportunity to improve his strength. On the earth, those who have the wealth can also improve their physical fitness by ingesting certain drugs in this way, so as to avoid reducing their life expectancy due to the destruction of their bodies due to a luxurious and corrupt life.

At first, Phil thought that his current physical fitness could no longer be improved by taking drugs, but he didn't expect the difference in physical fitness between the two worlds, not to mention that he was now an official knight, and his physical fitness was far from reaching the saturation point.

In short, since then, Phil has been hunting in the woods every now and then, and Shennong has eaten all kinds of animals and plants like a hundred herbs, but in the end he has only found a few that can improve his physical fitness.

But that's enough.

After absorbing the rhizome of the serpentine grass, Phil poured a few mouthfuls of water vigorously before continuing to set off.

What made Phil a little depressed was that most of these various animals and plants that can improve his physical fitness did not dare to compliment, which made him very uncomfortable every time.

But when you think about the strength you can improve, these are nothing.

Phil went on to discover serpentine one after another, and occasionally made other discoveries.

A few hours later.

Phil stood on a tree, his back against the trunk, his bow and arrows in his hands, and his eyes looking into the bushes not far away.

There was a sound of rustling, Phil did not act rashly, and in front of the eyes of others, in the black and white picture, a small yellow dot was crawling behind the bushes.

But the next moment, a white light immediately flew out of the bow, and with a bang, it took out the bushes and made a noise, and then there was no movement.

Phil confidently jumped off the tree and walked behind the bushes.

Sure enough, a palm-sized gopher lay on the ground, and a bow and arrow happened to go through its head and plunge into the dirt.

The gopher is a creature with very developed hearing, and its feet have a special organ that can detect extremely subtle tremors in the ground, and its speed is very fast, so it is very difficult to catch, even the official knight is helpless against it.

With the assistance of the cactus ball chip, for Phil, who is an official knight, the gopher has nothing to hide in front of him. Because the chip not only provides Phil with the exact location of the gopher from a distance, but also greatly improves Phil's archery. Analyzing data, determining directions, correcting movements, and after a series of actions, even an ordinary person can have an extraordinary bow technique, not to mention that Phil, as the eldest son of the family, must be mastered in archery, swordsmanship, and equestrianism.

Catch a gopher, and it's time for lunch.

After peeling and washing and cutting out his tongue, Phil set the gopher on the fire and threw his bloody tongue into his mouth.

"Drops, are absorbing anomalous matter, and their strength has increased to a minimal extent. ”

That's right, the gopher tongue is exactly the substance that Phil was first prompted with. At first, he was only practicing the effect of the chip on his archery, and the old man in the slum said that the gopher tongue could be eaten raw and was very delicious, and could be sold for a high price in the taverns of Lopis City, so he tried it, and sure enough, it did not disappoint him, and greatly exceeded his expectations.

Gopher meat is grilled while the broth is boiled. Phil took the opportunity to check his current physical fitness.

"Phil Underwood (Official Knight):

Strength: 1.9 (2.0)

Dexterity: 2.4 (2.5)

Constitution: 2.5 (2.5). ”

After hunting from time to time during this time, Phil's physical fitness has changed drastically. Among them, agility and physique are the most improved, this is because serpentine grass and other substances that help improve physique are more common in the mountains and forests, but the gopher tongue that is found for the first time to improve strength is very rare, and it has only increased by 0.3 after so long.

Of course, this "that's all" is only relative to the improved agility and physique, if others knew that just eating something could increase their strength by 0.3 in two or three weeks, the whole continent would go crazy about it.

You know, although there is not much difference in the data, but even if it is a 0.1 gap, it is also very different in terms of strength, which is not just the level of a certain direction, but the overall crushing, in the speed, strength confrontation, return of qi, reaction, etc., in the battle, it is a crushing that can be seen with a clear eye.

What's more, it's increased by 0.3 and 0.5 so much. It can be said that if Phil returns to the barren path in the mountains and forests now, and encounters the Xuanjia cavalry led by that team of knights again, Phil will definitely not need to die together.

Moreover, Phil found that such an increase brought by eating snake rhizomes and gopher tongues has not yet reached the point of developing resistance, and coupled with the fact that there are still many substances that can improve physical fitness in this vast mountain forest, Phil can already imagine the future.

For Phil, this mountain forest hides countless treasures, which almost makes him have the idea of not rushing to escape from the kingdom of Austin.

However, thinking that if you don't leave for a day, you won't be at peace for a day, and that other empires and kingdoms also have many unknown mountains and forests, Phil thinks it's better to leave quickly.

Settled for lunch, Phil continued to hunt in the afternoon. While searching for the known, we are also looking for new animals and plants that can improve physical fitness, and gradually improve the database of chips.

In the evening, Phil began to speed up and walk back, but in a big circle, he ran to Dongcheng District.

It was already night, the lights were dim, and the outside of the city was gradually quiet.

Phil waited by the side of the road, and after a while, the sound of neat footsteps was heard in the distance, mixed with the loud military horn, gradually getting closer.
