Chapter 2: Logistics soldiers are still great!

My attributes are really just mediocre.

Looking at the status panel, Gu Han couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

In this world, Gu Han had never heard of any distinction in attributes among martial practitioners.

But the normal attribute range for a first-stage martial apprentice given by the system provided Gu Han with a reference.

Apart from Qi Blood, all of Gu Han's basic attributes were equivalent to having just entered the first-stage martial apprentice not long ago.

With normal training, who knows how long it would take to become a second-stage martial apprentice.

Like Ma Tie, a farmer who is much older than him, yet still only a first-stage martial apprentice.

This shows how difficult martial cultivation is.

However, the appearance of the system is equivalent to providing Gu Han with a shortcut!

Just by touching a corpse and performing Soul Absorption, his attributes can skyrocket!

Seeing Gu Han standing there in a daze, Ma Tie immediately stepped forward and patted his shoulder,

"Hey, Gu Han, what are you spacing out for?"

Hearing Ma Tie's voice, Gu Han quickly came to his senses, only to discover that the others had already left.

Only Ma Tie and the other four were still waiting for him nearby.

Gu Han smiled embarrassedly, hefting the somewhat old knife in his hand,

"Let's go."

This was to prevent new recruits from encountering danger, so they were specially arranged to act in groups of five, so they could look out for each other.

Gu Han's group of five, following Li Lei's earlier method, placed the radishes, then lay in ambush among the bushes, waiting for a rabbit to appear, expecting the big white rabbit to come to them.

With prior experience, they waited very patiently.

After about the time it takes to finish a cup of tea, they finally waited for a big white rabbit.

This is one of the most common and weakest prey in the mountains and forests.

Although the big white rabbit's teeth are sharp, it only actively attacks enemies when it goes berserk.

To hunt a big white rabbit, you just need to keep a safe distance, lest its burst of speed bite you.

After Gu Han gave Ma Tie and the others a glance, the five of them, taking advantage of the big white rabbit's inattention, quietly closed in.

Swish!

The five simultaneously drew their sticks and swords and swung hard at the big white rabbit.

But they still underestimated the big white rabbit's speed, only seeing a white flash as their attacks all missed.

Only Gu Han's sword struck the big white rabbit, drawing a line of blood.

But it didn't inflict a fatal wound on the big white rabbit.

"Damn, watching Senior Li kill a rabbit earlier clearly seemed simple."

Ma Tie's face darkened, he looked somewhat dejected,

"How come it's our turn to try, and this big white rabbit is so fast?"

"Maybe we accidentally startled it; you all keep lying in ambush, I'll go chase."

After saying that, Gu Han dashed straight toward the fleeing big white rabbit.

Ma Tie and the others exchanged a glance, could only prepare the radishes again with dejected heads, and resume the ambush.

The big white rabbit had no other strengths, but its speed was extremely fast; plus, being familiar with the surroundings, it darted about in all directions.

Gu Han clenched his teeth, only then managing not to be shaken off by the big white rabbit.

Fortunately, his earlier slash had hit the big white rabbit's leg.

After a while, the big white rabbit, weakened from excessive blood loss, was caught up by Gu Han, who slit its major artery with one strike, ending its life.

Gu Han lifted the big white rabbit's corpse and whispered,

"Absorb attributes."

"Congratulations, host, you have absorbed 2 points of speed from the big white rabbit's corpse."

The familiar sensation of lightness surged again, making Gu Han's heart flutter.

"Huh?"

At the same time, Gu Han suddenly realized that the attributes absorbed from this big white rabbit were double those from the big white rabbit Li Lei had given him earlier!

Could it be that rewards earned through one's own effort are greater than those picked up by luck?

Gu Han had a guess in mind, but he also needed to verify it through practice.

After tossing the big white rabbit into the snakeskin bag, Gu Han returned along the same route.

When he returned, Ma Tie and the others were covered in dust and dirt, being spun around by a big gray rabbit.

This big gray rabbit's speed was obviously somewhat slower than the previous big white rabbit's, but it appeared more aggressive.

That pair of sharp teeth made Ma Tie and the others feel wary, not daring to approach.

They could only attack the big gray rabbit from a distance with their sticks, resulting in a stalemate.

Noticing Gu Han's footsteps, Ma Tie greeted him without turning his head,

"Gu Han, come help quickly."

Long reach versus short reach inherently holds an absolute advantage.

Moreover, with Gu Han's addition, the big gray rabbit quickly lost the fight, its throat slit and blood spilled!

Gu Han, without hesitation, lifted the big gray rabbit and tossed it into the snakeskin bag.

"Congratulations, host, you have absorbed 1 point of strength from the big gray rabbit's corpse."

Gu Han frowned, wondering if it was because the big gray rabbit was taken down jointly by him and Ma Tie and the others, so the absorbed attributes were less than those from the big white rabbit he killed alone?

Is this system's Soul Absorption human talent a bit too intelligent?

However, this dissatisfaction soon dissipated.

As long as there is profit, it's a Good Thing; even a mosquito's leg, however small, is still meat!

Without accumulating small steps, one cannot reach a thousand miles; without accumulating small streams, one cannot form rivers and seas.

What he needs to do now is to accumulate little by little to achieve much.

His good days are coming soon!

After returning to re-establish the ambush, Ma Tie curiously asked,

"Gu Han, did you catch the Big White Rabbit earlier?"

Gu Han smiled, opened the Snakeskin Bag, and revealed the three rabbits inside.

The other three also gathered around, and upon seeing clearly, they sucked in a breath of cold air.

The four of them were flustered dealing with a single Big Gray Rabbit, and when they previously ambushed that Big White Rabbit, they didn't even touch its edge.

Gu Han actually managed to slaughter a Big White Rabbit by himself?

Although we know Gu Han has five Combat Soldier brothers, each is an independent individual.

We are all Logistics Soldiers, and Gu Han being able to accomplish alone what the four of us together find difficult is worthy of our admiration!

After a while, another rabbit walked into the ambush circle.

Under Gu Han's command, the five simultaneously rushed out from the bushes.

This time, Ma Tie, who had been following closely beside Gu Han, felt a breeze brush past; Gu Han flashed forward and overtook him, leaving him behind.

Ma Tie couldn't help but be stunned,

"Was my start slow this time? How is Gu Han's speed faster than mine by a notch?"

But now is not the time to dwell on this; the five joined forces again and, in a flustered manner, slaughtered the Big White Rabbit.

With previous experience, this time dealing with the Big White Rabbit, they handled it much more systematically.

Gu Han thus gained another point of speed attribute again.

This let Gu Han realize that both scavenging and teamwork would reduce the attribute points gained from Soul Absorption.

The five repeated their old tactic, spending an entire afternoon ambushing on the hilltop and capturing plenty of prey.

"With Gu Han here, our score in this evaluation should at least rank in the upper middle, right?"

Ma Tie grinned, showing his happiness came from the heart.

Logistics Soldiers performed well, and it is said they can also receive rewards of wild beast meat that can temper Qi Blood.

This will be their chance to advance to Second-stage Martial Apprentice and become Combat Soldiers!

Gu Han, however, did not think so.

He previously indeed had the idea of becoming a Combat Soldier, but now it has long vanished.

Combat Soldiers need daily training; where is there the satisfaction of Logistics Soldiers hunting wild beasts to gain attributes?

Logistics Soldiers are simply the tailor-made soldier type for him!
