Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

The 30-minute deconstruction time passed quickly.

Lin Xiaosong released her grip and looked at the detailed information revealed by the dissection of the green mantis knife.

Deconstruction successful

Item Name: Green Mantis Knife

[Description: Green Mantis Blade, Tier 1. An extremely sharp mantis blade, it has a chance to drop after killing a giant mantis. It increases the user's attack speed by 10% and can be actively used to unleash sword energy.]

Sword Qi: Can be activated at will. The sword qi is 1 meter long and travels slowly, and can only be activated once per minute.

Projection Cost: 10 Stamina Point

After reviewing the detailed information of the deconstructed green mantis knife, Lin Xiao looked at his current physical and mental strength.

Stamina: 185/100

[Mental Strength: 145/100]

"Let's project two pairs first and see!"

"projection!"

Stamina: 165/100

"synthesis!"

[Mental Strength: 125/110]

A pair of sharp blades appeared in front of Lin Xiao after the light disappeared.

Item Name: Green Mantis Knife +2

[Description: Tier 1, an incredibly sharp mantis blade. It has a chance to drop after killing a giant mantis. It increases the user's attack speed by 30% and can be actively used to unleash swift sword energy.]

Swift Sword Aura: Can be activated at will. The sword aura is 1-2 meters long and travels at a relatively fast speed, capable of being activated 1-2 times per minute. (A 2-meter long sword aura can be activated once per minute, and a 1-meter long sword aura can be activated twice per minute. Only one type of sword aura can be activated at a time.)

"Swift sword energy?"

Lin Xiao looked at the green twin swords in his hand, feeling a little itchy to try out the power of the swift sword energy he could unleash.

Thinking it through, Lin Xiao put on the Shadow Mask again and controlled his clone to walk out of the cabin.

He stood in the open space, gripping two green swords tightly in both hands, aiming at the distant forest.

He raised his right hand and swung the knife horizontally.

A meter-long sword aura was unleashed from the blade tightly gripped in the right hand.

"Whoosh..."

The sword energy sliced ​​through several trees at an extremely fast speed before dissipating into the forest.

But Lin Xiao did not stop; instead, he immediately swung his knife again.

The second sword strike, after slicing through the trunks of nine trees, failed to penetrate the trunk of the tenth tree when it struck it.

The sword energy dissipated into the misty forest after penetrating only halfway into the tenth tree trunk.

"Ten trees... This must have been synthesized for the sword energy to have such power."

"If it were the sword energy emitted by the original giant mantis, its power would be completely different!"

Lin Xiao recalled the time when the giant mantis had gotten its mantis arms stuck in the tree trunk during his fight with it.

After waiting for one minute, Lin Xiao tested the power of the 2-meter-long sword energy.

A two-meter-long sword aura was unleashed from the green mantis blade. This time, the sword aura pierced through more than a dozen trees, and its speed remained undiminished, penetrating deep into the misty forest.

Lin Xiao couldn't determine exactly how many trees it pierced through due to the faint mist in the forest, but he was certain it was more powerful than a 1-meter-long sword aura.

"It seems that the longer the sword energy, the greater its power!"

Lin Xiao returned to the cabin and looked at the pair of mantis knives in his hand.

He tried it; both mantis blades had to be held in his hand to unleash their sword energy. Taking out only one of them had no effect whatsoever.

"It seems we still need to continue the synthesis!"

"projection!"

The three pairs of mantis blades reappeared.

Stamina: 135/100

"synthesis!"

[Mental Strength: 95/100]

Item Name: Green Mantis Knife +5

[Description: Tier 1, an incredibly sharp mantis blade, 100% drop rate after killing a giant mantis. It increases the user's attack speed by 60% and can be actively activated to unleash swift sword energy.]

Swift Sword Aura: Can be activated at will. The sword aura is 1-5 meters long and travels at a relatively fast speed, capable of being activated 1-5 times per minute. (A 5-meter long sword aura can be activated once per minute, and a 1-meter long sword aura can be activated five times per minute. Only one type of sword aura can be activated at a time.)

"That's about it..."

Lin Xiao looked at his stamina, which had dropped to 135, and his mental strength, which had dropped to 95, and muttered something to himself.

As things stand, a +5 Mantis Blade is sufficient for most users.

After all, it hasn't even been the first night yet, and Lin Xiao's current development speed has already surpassed that of many others.

Lin Xiao glanced at the time: "Is there still 5 hours until nightfall...?"

Lin Xiao stood at the window of the cabin and looked outside. She noticed that although it would be completely dark in five hours, the surrounding environment was already getting quite dark.

"If we woke up at 8 o'clock, then it should be... 3 pm now!"

"After 7 days, there will only be 8 hours of daylight? It seems that this so-called 7-day safe period is the time to widen the gap between yourself and other survivors..."

Lin Xiao sat on the bed, deep in thought. He was no longer planning to go out, since the supplies he needed next were Source Crystals.

When he went out to test the power of his swift sword energy, he had already walked around the cabin once, but unfortunately, he did not find any trace of the source crystal ore.

Lin Xiao sat on the bed, frowning as she looked at the Shadow Mask in her hand and the sacrificial lantern hanging at the door.

He plans to select one of the two second-tier items and perform a projection synthesis.

He's currently hesitating about which item to choose; these two items are the only two second-tier items he has at the moment.

One advantage is that items obtained from the deconstructed beginner chest do not need to be deconstructed again; otherwise, it would take an unknown amount of time to deconstruct these two second-tier items.

After hesitating for a while, Lin Xiao decided to upgrade the sacrificial lantern to a higher level today, since it would be nighttime soon.

As for the Shadow Mask, Lin Xiao decided to wait until the daytime of the next day to synthesize it.

After figuring it out, Lin Xiao stood up, went to the door, and took down the sacrificial lantern hanging outside.

As soon as the sacrificial lantern was taken down, the environment around Lin Xiao's cabin instantly darkened, and at the same time, a light mist enveloped Lin Xiao's cabin.

"This... I never imagined that a sacrificial lantern could have such a huge impact?"

Looking at the suddenly changed environment, Lin Xiao realized that this was the scene all the survivors without lanterns were seeing in the chat channel.

"It's no wonder that guy named Qi Bo was so afraid of the hanged ghost. In this kind of environment, fear is easily evoked..."
