The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

shook his head.

Whether it has any spiritual power or not, as long as it grows, that's fine.

He rummaged through his backpack and took out the nutrients he had obtained from dismantling monsters, scattering them around the planting platform. The moment the nutrients touched the soil, the blood ginseng's leaves trembled slightly, as if breathing.

Then he looked at the two jars of medicinal wine that had already been brewed.

He didn't rush to drink.

Su Mu picked up the root that had been rinsed with mineral water and examined it in his palm. It was dark red with fine lines on the surface, and sap was still oozing from the broken end. He took a sniff... a refreshing fragrance that invigorated him.

He previously soaked the roots in water, adding 16 points to his constitution. But that was a diluted solution. Now, what will be the effect of eating it raw?

Su Mu put the root in his mouth and chewed it twice.

The taste was strange. It wasn't bitter, nor astringent, but rather an indescribable flavor, like a mixture of metal and herbs. The juice exploded in my mouth, and the refreshing sensation rushed down my throat, all the way to my stomach.

Then, a warm sensation rose from my stomach.

It wasn't the same heart-pounding, vein-bursting feeling I had when drinking root water before; instead, it was a gentler, slower warmth. It was as if someone had lit a lamp inside my body, the heat spreading from my stomach outwards, slowly permeating every inch of my flesh.

It lasted for about ten seconds before the heat dissipated.

Su Mu opened the panel...

Physical condition: 53→56.

3 points were added.

It's much less than when soaked in water. Before, I added 16 points when soaking in water, but now I only add 3 points when eating it raw. The effect is significantly reduced.

Su Mu thought for a moment, then cut off a small piece of root... even thinner than the previous one, only the thickness of a toothpick... and put it in his mouth.

chew.

The heat rose again, but this time it was weaker and dissipated after only a few seconds.

Physical condition: 56→57.

1 points were added.

Eating it again had no effect. Su Mu tried once more, but this time there was no heat at all. Chewing the roots felt like chewing wood; there was no reaction whatsoever.

It seems this stuff, like medicinal wine, has resistance.

The first time is the most effective, the second time the effect diminishes significantly, and the third time it is almost non-existent.

Su Mu carefully collected the remaining roots and did not continue eating.

Instead of wasting it by eating it raw, it's better to save it for brewing wine. Medicinal wine can at least provide a stable boost to attributes, while eating it raw eventually becomes no different from eating grass.

Moreover, the main body of the blood ginseng is still intact.

What would be the effect of eating the whole plant?

He dared not try it now. The instructions clearly stated... "The medicine is extremely potent; an overdose may cause blood and qi to flow in reverse, with serious consequences." He wouldn't take the risk until he found the correct way to take it.

Su Mu rearranged the soil on the planting platform, watered it with mineral water and the collected fertilizer, and then walked over to the two jars of medicinal wine.

First jar, unscrew the cork.

The aroma of wine was irresistible. The deep red liquid swayed gently in the glass jar, like a melting ruby.

Su Mu tilted his head back and took a sip.

The moment the liquid entered my throat, a warm sensation rose from my stomach... not the faint warmth I felt when eating raw roots, but a stronger, more surging heat, as if someone had lit a fire inside me.

The heat spreads from the stomach to the limbs, flowing into every muscle, every bone, and every blood vessel.

He could feel his muscles tightening slightly, his bones cracking softly, and his blood rushing faster in his veins. That feeling lasted for about ten seconds, then slowly subsided.

Strength +10. Agility +10. Constitution +15.

Then, a gentle warmth didn't dissipate but lingered within his body, like a warm pool of water slowly flowing through his chest. Su Mu glanced down at his panel... and below the attribute bar, a new status icon had appeared:

【Blood Ginseng Medicinal Wine - Healing】: Continuously restores physical condition, +1 per second, lasting 12 hours. Also has analgesic effects and helps with mild to moderate pain.

Su Mu was taken aback. It turned out the effect wasn't temporary, but lasted for twelve hours. He had originally thought he'd have to finish the entire jar before it took effect; he hadn't expected it to activate after just one sip.

In that case, is it possible to exploit a bug?

He picked up the wine jug and took another sip.

No notification. No response.

I took another sip. Still nothing.

Su Mu frowned and opened the wine jar's attribute panel... The text on it had changed:

Blood Ginseng Medicinal Wine (Blue)

[Type: Consumable]

[Effects: After consumption, it slowly restores a significant amount of damaged bodily function, lasting for 12 hours, and also has an analgesic effect.]

[Note: There are no longer any permanent attribute bonuses. Only the first use is effective. Multiple uses by the same person will not stack, and others will not receive the permanent attribute bonus.]

As expected, the bug couldn't be exploited. The permanent attribute bonus only applies to the first sip; subsequent sips only refresh the duration of the continuous recovery and do not further increase the attribute.

Moreover, this stuff is selective about who drinks it... If someone else drinks it, it won't have a permanent bonus effect.

Su Mu put down the first jar, picked up the second jar, tilted his head back, and took a sip.

Strength +10. Agility +10. Constitution +15.

The same warmth, the same attribute increase. The attributes of the second potion also changed, becoming the same as the first potion, with only the recovery and pain relief effects remaining.

Su Mu placed the two jars of wine side by side, looked at them, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Although you can't exploit the bug, the value of these two jars of wine goes far beyond those 60 attribute points.

The remaining wine, with each sip, can continuously restore physical strength for 12 hours and also has a pain-relieving effect... This is practically a god-tier skill in battle. It's like carrying around a continuous health regeneration buff; just take a sip beforehand, and you can continuously recover health for the next half day.

Isn't this just like the painkillers in the game? And the kind that lasts for 12 hours.

Su Mu placed the two jars of wine together, looked at the numbers flashing on the panel, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

The two jars of wine added 20 points to Strength, 20 points to Agility, and 30 points to Constitution.

Adding the 4 points of Constitution gained from eating raw roots, plus the 15 Strength and 10 Agility attribute points allocated...

Now his attributes have undergone another dramatic change.
