Chapter 192 - 192 War and Slaughter (Part 3)
192 War and Slaughter (Part 3)
Hearing Old Li’s words, an ordinary butcher apprentice would probably complain in his heart. Three breeding farms meant a lot of slaughtering work.
But Ning Shi was very happy. This was all experience!
Ning Shi had been worried before that a red-eyed rabbit would weigh about a hundred catties. With the consumption of the orphanage’s canteen alone, killing a hundred red-eyed rabbits a day would be enough.
Now it seemed that the breeding ground did not only provide food for the orphanage, but also an industry.
Then the number of kills every day would be huge.
As expected, Old Li finally went straight to the point.
“Because the farm is the most profitable, and the most difficult and toughest job on the farm is the butcher, our treatment is very good. According to the number of slaughters on the farm, we need at least 10 ordinary butchers, so the orphanage built a house for all the butchers to live in.
“However, because I, your master, am amazing and have done the work of 10 people by myself, this house is mine alone. My salary is also very high, with a monthly salary of 200,000 origin coins.”
Old Li bragged about himself. Ning Shi knew that this butcher master of his was not ordinary. He was not an ordinary butcher, but a professional butcher with an inherited sect.
“Master, you’re amazing. You’re in charge of the butchering of three slaughterhouses,” he complimented him directly.
Ning Shi’s flattery was really low-level, but Old Li enjoyed it very much. He grinned, revealing his neat black teeth, and smiled very happily.
“Xiao Ning, study hard. With your talent, it won’t be long before you’ll be as good as me.
“However, I have to make it clear to you first that you will have a very hard time in the coming days. Not only do you have to learn the skills of a butcher, but you also have a lot of work to do.
“Our workload is based on the orders from the farm. In order to improve efficiency, we usually only slaughter one animal a day. Today we will slaughter 800 red-eyed rabbits, tomorrow we will slaughter 1000 long-tail chickens, and the day after, we will slaughter 500 steel-hair pigs.
“Business is off-peak these few days, so the workload isn’t heavy.
“You’re very talented, but in order to grow, you must work hard!”
Even if it was off-season, it was still a terrifying workload. Old Li had to kill nearly a thousand red-eyed rabbits a day and cut all the rabbit meat. If it wasn’t for his superhuman physical fitness and professional skills, it was impossible to complete it.
No wonder Old Li had asked the Old Director Song Yuan to recruit other butchers to help.
Old Li said these words to let Ning Shi be prepared to suffer. He had thought that Ning Shi would be afraid of difficulties after hearing these words. He had already prepared words of comfort and encouragement.
Who knew that Ning Shi’s expression was extremely happy?
He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, master. I’m not afraid of hardships! I can practice my knife skills by killing. I’ll practice killing first, and after that, I’ll learn how to cut.”
Ning Shi’s top priority was to upgrade, so he said that. Old Li didn’t object.
He only said, “You have a strong talent in knife skills. You can learn how to kill first. However, you also have to learn how to cut. The two are one. There is no distinction between them.”
Ning Shi nodded, and the two stopped talking. After focusing on eating, they went to the red-eyed rabbit farm again.
Ning Shi continued to kill red-eyed rabbits. After his physique rose to 12 points, Ning Shi’s physical fitness increased again, and the speed of killing rabbits became a little faster.
Even so, he only managed to kill another 100 red-eyed rabbits by 5 in the afternoon, accumulating 200 experience points.
[ Butcher has been upgraded to Tier 4 (0/300). Physique +1, skill point +1, potential point +1. ]
He leveled up again, and his physique reached 13 points. Ning Shi’s physical fitness was enhanced again, and the restrictions on his swordsmanship became less and less. His speed of killing rabbits became faster.
He saved up his skill points and potential points for the time being. Ning Shi had an impulse to add all the potential points to his physique. This way, his physique could improve quickly, and his efficiency in killing rabbits would be higher.
Because it was after 5 o’clock in the afternoon, Old Li saw that Ning Shi’s efficiency couldn’t keep up with the progress, so he also joined in the work of killing rabbits.
Ning Shi’s strength was still not enough, and killing the red-eyed rabbit required a surprise attack, which took a lot of effort.
Old Li’s physical fitness was obviously very strong. He killed one red-eyed rabbit with one slash and killed them at an extremely fast speed.
Ning Shi followed behind Old Li, killing a red-eyed rabbit from time to time. Seeing Old Li kill rabbits like they were numb, Ning Shi felt a trace of bitterness in his heart. These red-eyed rabbits were all good for gaining experience, but unfortunately, because of the problem of efficiency, he could only give up.
Old Li spent more than an hour and killed more than 600 red-eyed rabbits, reaching the 800 red-eyed rabbits required for today’s order.
“Xiao Ning, come with me and learn how to cut.”
The next step was the more complicated task of cutting the flesh.
Ning Shi followed Old Li, learning how to deal with the red-eyed rabbit’s body and how to cut the rabbit meat.
The only talent that the game avatar could copy was learning (gold), so Ning Shi’s learning ability was extremely fast. After learning about it two or three times, the game system sent a prompt.
[ Under Old Li’s guidance, you have learned the butcher’s professional skill, slaughtering skill. The current skill level is slaughtering skill level 1. ]
[ Slaughtering skill: One of the core skills of the butcher profession. It includes the knife skills to kill, the observation skills to understand the body structure, and various techniques to cut the body. ]
[ When cultivated to the extreme, killing any living being would be as easy as slaughtering chickens. ]
Seeing this skill, Ning Shi’s eyes brightened. He knew that although he had experience in knife skills, basic knife skills at level 11 were limited in this world.
Under the influence of the world will and the game system, when Ning Shi used the basic knife technique to kill the red-eyed rabbit, there would always be a sense of blockage, which was very difficult.
This wasn’t because his body wasn’t strong enough, but because the clone didn’t have the basic sword technique.
Ning Shi only used the knife technique based on experience. He was not familiar with his body at all. Many times, he realized that his body could not reach it, so his skills also affected the efficiency of killing the red-eyed rabbits.
Now that he had the slaughtering skill, Ning Shi’s efficiency in killing monsters and leveling up would be greatly improved.
He could keep his potential points, and perhaps consider adding them to his Spiritual Power.
Because in four days, Ning Shi would have to undergo the qualification test that would determine the life fate of an ordinary person.
The mission had already mentioned that the higher one’s Spiritual Power, the more outstanding one’s aptitude was.
Ning Shi needed to get an excellent test result.
Not only for the mission, but more importantly, he wanted to join the higher education institutions of the Norse Republic. Only then could he understand the world more deeply.
