Chapter 6

Seeing these three skills that could be exchanged, Tang Lin finally understood the use of the Wish Power.

There did not seem to be any need to hesitate about these three skills. It was meaningless to be an omnivore. Tang Lin lived in a society where people would not starve to death. People who claimed to eat dirt had never even eaten tree bark or grass roots.

As for transmigrating to another world, Tang Lin felt that it would be sufficient to bring along with him two compressed biscuits.

Exquisite craftsmanship did not mean much either. Tang Lin did not intend to become a craftsman. He had not even liked to play with building blocks since he was young. From his experience in this transmigration, craftsmanship when he was in a giant state was useless. Even if all the weapons and armor of the Dwarf Kingdom were melted, Tang Lin doubted if it was enough for him to make a hammer.

Therefore, the only choice was the Stoneman’s Heart. Fortunately, the dwarves were very satisfied with Tang Lin’s service, so they gave him extra Wish Power points as a reward. Otherwise, Tang Lin would not have been able to exchange for it.

The reward for summoning was not low. The low requirements were low and they were easy to satisfy. They were even willing to give a generous tip. These dwarves were really the perfect summoners.

Tang Lin sighed and exchanged for the Stoneman’s Heart skill. He only had 100 Wish Power points left now.

There was no light or shadow effect, and it did not feel like his strength had increased exponentially. Instead, Tang Lin felt that his body seemed to have become a little heavier.

He tried to jump on the spot, but nothing seemed to have changed. After a while, the heavy feeling disappeared, but at the same time, Tang Lin did not feel any changes in his body.

Tang Lin began to worry if this was a counterfeit product. He took a closer look at the description.

“Obtaining the blessings of the earth, standing on the ground will give you an obvious boost in strength and recovery.”

Tang Lin seemed to understand what the problem was. His house was on the twelfth floor. It was too far from the ground.

It was two in the morning, so he couldn’t go downstairs to test the effect. He could only wait until the next day.

He checked the system interface again. Apart from receiving the Wish Power points, Tang Lin also obtained 172 dwarven gold coins. This was contracted by the dwarves when they summoned Tang Lin, using half of their wealth as the price.

However, the size was still based on the standards for the alternate world.

There were more than a hundred gold coins, and each of them was so small that they could pass through a needle hole. It was not clear if altogether they even weighed one gram.

This bit of gold, it was only about 300 yuan even if it was 999 pure gold. Although Tang Lin was a poor student, 300 yuan was not enough to excite him.

Tang Lin took out a necklace from the drawer. The pendant was in the shape of an exquisite treasure chest and could be opened. This was a gift he had prepared for someone a long time ago. In the end, he didn’t manage to give it away, so he kept this necklace as a memento.

Tang Lin opened the treasure chest pendant and placed the gold coins inside. In the end, the chest was less than a third full.

Although it was a small amount, this function represented the possibility of an inter-plane transaction. Perhaps there was a treasure suitable for a “giant” like Tang Lin.

After locking the necklace back into the drawer, Tang Lin yawned and lay on the bed. He should have been asleep long ago. After transmigrating and climbing the mountain for a few hours, Tang Lin was already exhausted.

Tang Lin quickly fell asleep after covering himself with the blanket. He slept soundly, and only got out of bed at ten o’clock the next day.

The sound of slippers echoed in the empty house. Tang Lin’s parents had already gone to work.

Tang Lin made noodles for himself. After thinking about it, he added another portion. He had exchanged for the Stoneman’s Heart skill. It could be said that he had been reborn. It was written in novels that the impurities in his body would be expelled, his muscles would be more defined, and his appetite would increase greatly.

However, fifteen minutes later, Tang Lin poured the remaining half of the noodles and scolded, “The novels are all lies!”

After changing his clothes, Tang Lin took his cell phone and went out. He wanted to see if this Stoneman’s heart was a low quality counterfeit product.

He took the elevator downstairs. As he descended, Tang Lin began to feel a force slowly seeping into his body.

After walking out of the elevator, Tang Lin walked out of the residential building. When he arrived at the community garden, this feeling became even clearer.

There seemed to be a force lifting him up from the ground, making his body light. The small wounds on his feet felt numb and itchy, as if they were healing at an extremely fast speed.

This feeling was actually not very pleasant. The numbness and itchiness in his feet made him want to scratch them with his hands. However, if he scratched his toes in the community garden, his reputation would go down the drain! Tang Lin had always been held up as the child to be benchmarked against.

However, he could not take the elevator home either. The effect of the Stoneman’s Heart skill would be greatly weakened if he was far away from the ground. He would not know when these wounds would recover then.

Therefore, he decided to use running to reduce this sensation. At the same time, he could test the strength enhancement effect of this Stoneman’s Heart.

And true enough, the effect of the Stoneman’s Heart became even more obvious after running.

With every step he took, there seemed to be a rising force that offset his weight. At the same time, it propelled him forward at an even faster speed. His body, which was clearly a little fat, felt as light as a swallow.

Not only that, the power that seeped into his body seemed to be able to make his stamina recover quickly. After running three laps around the man-made lake in this district, which was a distance of a thousand meters, Tang Lin was covered in perspiration, and at the same time, he felt that his body could not take it anymore.

However, after walking for ten odd meters, Tang Lin felt that he had returned to his normal state. Even his fatigue quickly disappeared.

Tang Lin wanted to test his limits, so he continued to run around the man-made lake. This time, he ran even further. He only began to feel tired after running four and a half laps.

Next, he began to slow down again, and the stamina he had consumed quickly recovered. After repeated tests, Tang Lin found that his physical fitness was rapidly improving, and his endurance and strength had clearly increased.

However, the power of the earth did not seem to be able to replace the effect of water. After running for so long, Tang Lin felt a little thirsty. Just as he was about to go home and drink some water, he suddenly heard someone panting behind him and shouting, “Isn’t this Tang Lin? Are you so good at running?”

He turned around and saw a mountain of flesh blocking his way.

This was his neighbor cum classmate, Meat Mountain… No, Ren Shan.

Ren Shan was in the same year as Tang Lin, but Tang Lin was in Class One while he was in Class Two. This person was indeed not an ordinary person. He was 1.9 meters tall and weighed 350 kilograms. He was only a step away from being morbidly obese.

Tang Lin looked at Ren Shan’s appearance. He was wearing a sweatband on his head, sportswear and a pair of Nike running shoes that were so expensive that it made people green with envy. Tang Lin remembered that this was a new model. It cost more than 7,000 yuan on the Internet.

Tang Lin knew that Ren Shan’s family was quite wealthy, but he didn’t expect them to be this wealthy. They were both out for a run, but did Ren Shan have to be so extravagant?

Tang Lin’s heart was sour with jealousy, but on the surface, he could only say casually, “Yes, you’re here to train too. What a coincidence.”

Ren Shan did not realize that his extravagance had hurt Tang Lin. Instead, he said enviously, “I saw you run five rounds just now. You’re not even panting. Tang Lin, are you that impressive? Do you run marathons?”

Tang Lin quickly said, “No, I’m just preparing to find something to do after the college entrance examination. It feels unhealthy to play games at home all day, so I tried to exercise. I’ve only been running for more than a week. If you work a little harder too, you won’t be much worse off than me.”

“I’ve been running for almost half a month. Look at my belly.” Ren Shan looked helpless as he pinched the belly that looked like he was seven months pregnant.

He had been training for half a month! What a determined fatso.

“I can’t persevere any longer. I haven’t lost any weight at all. Moreover, my knee hurts terribly. Can you teach me how to achieve your physique by running?” Ren Shan asked.

“Physique? What physique?” Tang Lin asked curiously.
