Chapter 38 - 38: Brine Spring.

Robert was startled after hearing this, It needed 100,000 energy points, right?

How was the mission completed? He didn't do anything before to get so many energy points...

Just as he wanted to as he started to receive information in his mind.

After a minute Robert understood that this is information related to the upgrade.

The mission was completed because he swallowed the Soul Pike thrown by the cultivator before. After digestion, he got Over 100,000 Energy points.

Robert felt delighted after the mission was completed Before he expected that it would take a long time to get the mission completed.

Seeing it completed so easily he was happy, After the upgrade, there are several changes the main one being that Evolution Plugin finally transformed into Evolution System.

Yes, Before he was only using plugins, not the system although he does not know the difference between the two he can tell that system is better than the plugin just by looking at the new function.

List refresh in 3 Hours 36 minutes and 12 seconds.

Seeing the list of the items Robert was surprised, He was attracted by the healing potion before but he did not have the necessary materials to make it. Now seeing one in the system he was surprised and delighted.

This item is what he needs now, His hands are scrapped so he can not do anything. If this potion works then he can restore his hands and do other work.

He would also purchase shorts. It's embarrassing for him to roam naked. Although most of the animals have similar fashion.

As for the AIR Robert is very suspicious of this item because it felt like a scam. As he was scammed by the system before he is very cautious regarding this.

He will purchase something useless now, He will purchase 2 Healing potions and one short.

Total he spent 5,000 points to purchase two healing potions and 10 shorts.

After doing this he was confused about how this product will arrive at him?

"Where are the things I purchased, system?" Having no choice Robert asked the system.

"Host, Open your eyes and look around carefully." The system said and became quiet again.

Robert was startled after the hearing system and looked around at his foot. There are three packages.

Robert was speechless, Don't you need to be secretive?

He looked around and suddenly realised why the system was not secretive. All of them were asleep.

They must be tired after going through all of those events. When they are finally at a safe place they slumbered.

He did not have the intention to wake them. He looked at the three packages and opened them one by one.

One package contained two bottles of healing potion 1,000 ML in each bottle.

The other two packages comprised ten shorts. He looked at one potion and asked the system, As There was no instruction written on the package.

"System, how do I use this potion?"

"Just drink it."

Robert wanted to do that but unfortunately, he cannot use his arm now he opened the package with his legs. Looks like I have to use my leg to drink too.

With much difficulty, he held the bottle with his legs and brought the opening to his mouth. He opened the bottle with his mouth and did as the system told him, gulped the whole bottle down.

He wanted to retch after drinking the potion. It tastes disgusting.

He swallowed the whole medicine with much difficulty. Although taste is disgusting he soon felt changes inside his body. His hands started to itch, He wanted to scratch but could not do so.

Since his hands are back now it's time to scan the surroundings, Snowball teleported to escape but the location was random, He needs to examine the environment for safety.

He put the shots and walked outside the cave carefully without making any noise.

After walking for a minute he finally saw light in front of him, He picked up his face and arrived outside.

This cave was located near a mountain slope and the surrounding was covered with big trees. There was no trace of activity near the cave, which means no creature lived here before.

He looked around and saw a cave adjacent to the cave in which they were living. He became vigilant as there could be a potential enemy inside that cave.

I still need to go inside and see the situation otherwise it would be dangerous to live in this place with an unknown neighbour.

Robert thought to himself and walked inside the cave cautiously throughout the way he did not find any traces left by a creature.

When he was at the end of the cave he found a small spring and there was a hole on top of the cave which let sunlight come inside.

He walked near the spring and looked around carefully trying to find any edible plants. Many plants grow near the water source, So there is a chance that he could find one.

But unfortunately, his luck was not so good as he did not find a single edible plant.

Robert sighed helplessly. No harvest for today's exploration but at least he found a source of water that could be helpful.

Thinking of this he cheered up a bit and drank the water from the spring but after drinking a sip he immediately spits it out.

"Brine spring?" He exclaimed in shock at the same time he became excited.

Fuck with edible plants, They cannot be compared to the spring in front of him.

He could extract the most essential ingredients from this spring, which is Salt!

Yes, He can get salt from this spring. Although the process needs some preparation he is willing to do it.

Brine springs are by far the most common source of salt for the people who live far away from the sea.

He once read that in ancient times people would go to a salt spring to collect the nearby salt, taking turns managing fires to heat stones that are then placed into clay pots to boil water. Eventually, the salt is shaved from the insides of these containers and stocked for a year's supply.

Robert wanted to cry, Finally, I can add some taste to the food.

Finally, Salt was acquired!
