he woke up early, with the panel still up.
during the time he continued wondering about the pros and cons.
and there seemed way to many cons.
‘but..’ what if he receives so much information he goes brain dead?
that’s his only worry, with how the system is right now, he believes that working on his own comprehension is much better, with less risk.
‘but, maybe after basic wood cutting is perfected..’ after all, how information intensive is wood cutting?’ but then he grinned.
the type of grin only a prankster would get.
a type of grin that you know would cause trouble, from a little annoying to downright heinous!
‘after all, I need those contribution points~’ the reason he got up so early is to first, break into the seniors’ homes and lather their axes up with oil.
enough that they will think its sweat, but also enough to get launched away with a swing!
next he ran down quickly to the area, and found their special equipment to move the logs.
they were a simple instrument with cloth and 2 handles.
which he created a tear in, small enough to not get seen by a glance, but enough to rip in half from major use!
next, he separated the bottom row of log piles of his senior brothers, just enough.
that way they’ll spread out and tumble.
he finished it all rather quickly and immediately got started swinging on the tree.
30 minutes later, he already dealt with the first 2 logs, feeling himself getting into a rhythm, as well as the fact that he had it at great success.
when finally his senior brothers came out.
seeing him already swinging, and have another 2 logs added to his piles, they immediately decided to start of strong!
swinging with immense force, only for their axes to go flying deep into the woods!
they groaned, ‘my hands are sweaty..’ they both thought and recollected their axes and wiped the handle on their clothes.
they immediately swung, and swung, knocking down the tree after a couple dozen swings before grabbing the cloth tool, to pull the log.
they felt it making more sounds of strain but nothing unusual.
they saw me moving faster and faster, so they decided to cut down the bigger trees wondering if they give more points.
*** 3 hours later, the tools broke!
surprisingly they noticed Ma Qing’s tool was still in good condition, and they started getting suspicious too.
but they didn’t think much of it.
but they realised, that you already got the lions share of the contribution points!
seeing as he got 86 logs on your pile!
‘not to mention his crazy efficiency!’ they might have thought he had 80 years of experience but look 20!
in reality, he was a 13 turning 14 in a month, and was a miner, with only a day and a half of log work..
but after constantly, and constantly viewing his skills grow at a visible rate, seeing the points escalate over and over…
he reached perfection!
an overwhelming amount of knowledge rushed into him!
so much he felt extremely nauseous!
‘augh….
what the hell’ with all the knowledge seeping in, it felt like he was watching himself, swing, swing, swing….
swing so long and so much that he fell a tree 2 meters wide!
carved up wood till it was perfect!
‘why the fuck does this have carpentry!’ almost everything was so deeply ingrained it hurt!
he almost felt like his mind was collapsing for a while until it started to lessen, slowly and gratingly, until it was just a pulsating headache.
[Wood Cutting Skill: 12/10,000 Perfection] after the long painful process of living a life he never had, he thought ‘holy shit that was horrible…’ he was absolutely confused why that involved so much knowledge..
‘maybe it was the name?’ probably.
after all, he didn’t know what the system was basing all this knowledge from, he didn’t know if that man cutting down the thousands, of thousands of logs were him or someone else…
‘I’m turning it off.’ he quickly opened the panel and shut it off.
not trusting it one bit.
[if you turn off Easy Knowledge, it will not be turned on again] [Turn off?] “yes” he felt nothing, which was to be expected, and got up and started swinging.
this time, he had extreme efficency!
almost cutting a log every 10 minutes!
*** sun had just started to set, as they cut down every tree within 2 days!
actually, it was mostly Ma Qing who cut them down, the other 2 were expecting to be done by a week yet they saw the efficiency of Ma Qing and realised taking it slow would mean losing all the contribution points, so, they pushed themselves!
but after all that, they barely managed around 70 points each, most of the contribution points were sucked up by Ma Qing, who cut down 155 trees!
