Chapter 153: You’re in a Good Mood Today
“Lifesaver Burger (Dish): A portable snack for adventurers. Restores stamina quickly and grants +3 Foraging skill for six hours. Requires: Bread (Dish) ×1, Cave Carrot ×1, Eggplant ×1.”
Leon had no idea how many trees he had chopped down before the system’s notification finally chimed.
As usual, the content was full of deadpan nonsense, but at least his Foraging skill had leveled up, and he had unlocked a new recipe. If the system wanted to make a big deal out of it, fine—he was the one benefiting from it, after all.
He glanced at the lumber haul in his backpack: 480 pieces of wood, 113 drops of sap, 3 pine cones, 4 maple seeds, and 6 acorns.
The seed drop rate was pretty high, especially for acorns. Planting them would grow new oak trees, and Leon could cluster them in one area to mass-produce oak resin.
That meant one thing—one day, he could brew enough to recreate the legendary Maotai Town Story.
He kept swinging his axe, determined to clear the farm of all trees before nightfall. That would also make it easier to plan the layout.
The work was monotonous, but the steady stream of materials kept him motivated. When the wood stack in his backpack hit the cap of 999 and overflowed into a second slot, Leon finally realized that even in this “real world,” the system backpack had stack limits.
Still, losing a slot or two wasn’t a big deal. With 24 slots total and not much else on him, even if wood started filling a third or fourth stack, he’d have plenty of space left.
