HP [1000/1000]

Mana [100/100]

There were no changes in his HP and Mana bars; they remained just as they used to be.

The change was the appearance of a line of text beneath his HP bar.

[Hidden Attribute: Improved Body Conditions]

[Body Strengthening: Physique surpasses that of ordinary people, gains from exercise are greater, and the upper limits are higher]

“Sure enough, I have hidden attributes, too! No wonder I always feel like I get a lot out of each workout!”

Wang Tao was somewhat pleased.

But then again, Ding Yuqin could see her hidden attributes from killing just one zombie, while he had to wait until his HP reached 1000… That’s pretty unlucky!

“Wang Tao, are you alright?”

Wang Tao turned his head and saw Ding Yuqin’s worried face.

“Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I’m fine. By the way, how long did I sleep?” “You slept for three hours! You didn’t move at all; you scared me to death!” Seeing that Wang Tao was indeed fine, Ding Yuqin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Three hours, huh…”

Wang Tao nodded. As long as it wasn’t like last time when he passed out for three days, it was okay.

“Are you hungry? It’s already dark; I’ll go make dinner…”

As she spoke, Ding Yuqin was about to get up and leave.

But Wang Tao grabbed her hand in one move and smoothly pulled her onto the bed. Then, with his arms around Ding Yuqin’s waist, he looked into her watery eyes and said with a smile:

“Hungry, but I’d like to have some dumplings first.”

Wang Tao felt unusually energetic at the moment and needed to use up some energy.

The next morning.

When Wang Tao woke up, he saw Ding Yuqin in his arms, looking at him with her sparkling eyes.

“Truly, only a dead cow…”

Last night, Ding Yuqin had been thoroughly defeated, yet this morning she was the first to wake up, looking radiant.

On the contrary, it was Wang Tao himself who felt a slight soreness in his waist.

“Hmph!”

Ding Yuqin gave Wang Tao a coquettish glance, then wriggled out of his arms.

“I’m going to make breakfast!”

“Call me husband first.”

“… Husband-”

After murmuring softly like the buzz of a mosquito, Ding Yuqin took off as if escaping.

“Tsk, tsk.”

Once Ding Yuqin had left, Wang Tao continued to ponder the problem he hadn’t figured out the day before.

“Where did those 5 drops of my blood go… Could it be that after my HP exceeds a thousand, killing zombies no longer increases the HP limit?”

Wang Tao was a bit distressed. If that were true, then wouldn’t that mean 1000 HP was the ceiling?

But he had seen zombies with 2000 HP and unknown creatures with tens of thousands of HP…

“I’ll try again later. If ordinary zombies don’t increase HP, then I’ll go kill special zombies! I refuse to believe…”

After a simple wash, Wang Tao didn’t leave his room. Instead, with a thought, a blueprint appeared in his hand.

It was the [Food Compressor Blueprint], and then he took out the necessary crafting materials and Crystal Core.

The words “Ready to Use” instantly appeared on the Blueprint.

Upon choosing to use it, the materials turned into streams of light and flew into the blueprint. Then, a line of text appeared on the blueprint.

[Crafting in progress, remaining time 59:59]

“One hour? That’s fine, I can wait a bit.”

“Wang Tao, time to eat!”

Ding Yuqin’s voice came from outside the door.

“Here it comes.”

After breakfast, Wang Tao began his morning exercise.

Following some simple physical tests, Wang Tao felt that his overall physical condition with 1000 HP was at least two to three times stronger than when he had only 100 HP!

He now had a feeling that “without any weapons, he could smash a zombie’s skull with one punch”…

At a certain moment, Wang Tao’s spirit perked up, and he looked at his backpack.

[The Food Compressor has been manufactured]

With a thought, Wang Tao prepared to take the machine out, but a prompt appeared that there was not enough space.

“…How big is this thing?”

Wang Tao’s workout area was in a corner of the living room, cluttered with many things.

He moved to the center of the living room.

Ding Yuqin was wearing a yoga outfit and doing her exercises.

Wang Tao walked over and unceremoniously slapped her on the butt.

Ding Yuqin immediately turned red-faced and looked at Wang Tao.

“It’s not really appropriate during the day…”

“What is sister-in-law fantasizing about? I mean you’re in my way, move aside.”

Ding Yuqin instantly flushed with embarrassment.

However, following a heavy thud of something landing, Ding Yuqin jumped in fright.

“Wang Tao, what’s this situation? Your Ability?”

In the living room, there was now a massive machine with a wasteland punk style.

“It’s sort of like that. Go grab a small bag of rice.”

Wang Tao didn’t explain much.

He himself was also baffled; how could those few small materials create such a big machine? That wasn’t scientific!

“Okay!”

Ding Yuqin didn’t ask further, she always remembered not to do anything that might annoy Wang Tao.

Soon, Ding Yuqin came over with a 2.5 kg bag of rice, and Wang Tao brought the same amount of water.

After the Food Compressor was made, prompts with instructions popped up.

To make the nutritional liquid, it required equal proportions of food and water, and there would be some loss during the process that would provide energy to the machine… meaning that if used sparingly, the machine could last a long time.

There were three windows on the machine, two for input and one for output.

After pouring the rice and water into the “input” windows, the machine began to vibrate slightly.

A moment later, the “output” window in the middle opened, revealing four thumb-thick plastic tubes filled with a yellow, viscous liquid. There was a line of text on the plastic casing.

“2000 calories, rice flavor… Shelf life 1 year…”

Ding Yuqin curiously read the words on it.

“For a normal person, 2000 calories of energy should last a day, right?”

Wang Tao wasn’t too clear on that himself; he knew it certainly wouldn’t be enough for him.

“This is a nutritional liquid…”

Wang Tao gave a brief explanation.

After hearing this, Ding Yuqin’s eyes lit up.

“Wow! This is amazing! It’s really useful for us!”

All the food from the entire complex, the small restaurant, and the convenience store had been taken back to Wang Tao’s home. Though not as much as a dedicated food storage warehouse, when added up, it was quite a lot.

Many of the food items had short shelf lives and would go bad over time, and they were also inconvenient to carry. If they could be turned into this kind of nutritional liquid, that would be very convenient!

“Okay, go sort out the food with short shelf lives or those that are inconvenient to carry. I’ll see which ones need to be turned into nutritional liquid.”

“Okay!”

Ding Yuqin immediately took a notebook and pen, eagerly going to sort the food.

Wang Tao focused his mind, and the four tubes of nutritional liquid were stored in his Space Backpack.

“Indeed, they can be put into the Space Backpack! Great stuff!”

Wang Tao suddenly thought, since any food could be turned into nutritional liquid, could contaminated food also be made into nutrient-rich liquid?

“Bring back some contaminated food to try, and also kill a few zombies to check the HP situation….”
