Chapter 80
There were a total of eight bottles of water . It was enough for everyone, including the instructor .
Under the harsh sunlight, a bottle of water was a blessing to the throat as it brought a sense of coolness to the body .
Furthermore, the water had an indescribable sweetness . After it went into the stomach, even their stamina slowly recovered .
Tang Ling had never drank such delicious water before . Not even level 3 drinking water could compare to this . During the days living with Su Yao, all Su Yao provided was level 3 drinking water . to which Tang Ling was not a stranger .
“The water is good, isn’t it?” the instructor suddenly spoke while everyone was gulping down their bottles .
“Yes, it’s to die for!”
“This is Level 2 drinking water, pure and uncontaminated . Plus, it’s filled with healthy minerals . These are all just the basics . The important thing is that it contains energy, cosmic energy, to be exact . Still, the amount of energy isn’t that much, but consuming it for a long time will be beneficial to you and that’s something even an idiot would know .
“All of you also need to know that there is no longer natural level 2 drinking water in the sector . These bottles cost a great amount of effort and manpower because every spring containing level 2 drinking water needs to be ‘aged’ . It requires a total of 75 days of being under the Purple Moon moonlight . ”
While the instructor was explaining, not a single one of them slowed down drinking . Other than Yu and Orston, the surprise on everyone’s face stated it all .
Tang Ling was also surprised . He never thought that a bottle of water would cost so much to make and was so luxurious to even obtain, but why was it related to the Purple Moon?
The instructor would never explain it to him . He continued, “Level 2 drinking water is the standard water supply in the First Reserved Camp . Besides that, the lunch that all of you will be having later will be a standard 1 kg king beast meat with only the essence served, which is the meat with the most muscle and is richest in protein .

“There will also be modified grains from the old civilization to provide rich carbohydrates, vitamins, and other nutrients . There are also vegetables . Even though we only provide 100 grams of vegetables, it’ll be enough to regulate the downside of eating meat all year long . ”
“Got it? This is the standard of every meal . You’ll have three meals per day, and the First Reserved Camp can assure you that every meal is scrumptious . Aside from that, you can also get fruits every two days . It will be a real fruit that tastes sweet . More importantly, every half a month, you’ll get a high nutrition paste as a supplement for your daily training . Does anyone of you think it’s precious?” Then, the instructor skimmed his gaze over all the boys and girls .
They reasonably showed admiration and shock on their expressions, even Yu and Orston .
The two of them could neglect the king beast meat or even the vegetables and fruits, but they could not neglect the high nutrition paste .
Because they came from noble backgrounds, they fully understood how precious the high nutrition paste was .
Tang Ling’s heart raced . Given his background and his body, he had no resistance towards food .
Of course, the taste was not within his consideration . He was only calculating how to ration the portions . Could he suppress the hunger attack for a long period of time? However, his answer was not close to ideal .
“If I can’t hunt to make up for the portions, should I work in the First Reserved Camp?” Tang Ling’s face scrunched up .
“Are you not happy with it?” Thuja had already prepared his speech that would surprise them next, but Tang Ling’s ugly frown raised some doubts .
Is this kid some high noble? Is life in the First Reserved Camp that bad to him? Even Orston and Yu, who are true nobles, are interested!
A moment later, Thuja thought of Tang Ling’s background . He was the kid under Su Yao .
Did Su Yao feed him with vicious beast meat every day? Is Su Yao that rich?

While Thuja was going through his speculations, Tang Ling hesitated before he asked, “If and I am saying if , we don’t get enough to eat, is there any way around that?”
“What the hell? Are you a bloody Harsheen boar? 3 kgs of meat every day with that many sides and it’s still not enough for you?” Orston deemed himself as gluttonous and even he felt that the food provided by the First Reserved Camp was scrumptious and sufficient to fill them .
Tang Ling never felt so much hatred for the Harseen boar before . Ugh, those black and white striped bastards!
He continued to neglect Orston and asked the instructor loudly, “Instructor, I’ll never work for it, not in my life, so is there any other…?”
What the hell is this kid saying?
Instructor Thuja felt like the atmosphere that he built up delicately was completely destroyed . Nonetheless, he managed to tamp his anger down and shut Tang Ling’s mouth by covering it . “If you are really as gluttonous as a Harsheen boar, the First Reserved Camp can satisfy you and even provide you with food that you cannot imagine, but first, you must prove that you qualify for it . As for how, you’ll know when you get into the camp . ”
After that, Thuja released Tang Ling’s mouth and pointed at him fiercely . “If you so much as speak another word, I will beat the shit out of you . ”
Tang Ling swore in his heart that one day, he would massacre all the Harseen boars! He really hated them!
At the same time, hurt rose in his heart . What did he say wrong? He was just trying to ask for more food!
His delicately built atmosphere was destroyed by Tang Ling, and it was the first time Thuja faced such a failure while trying to display his authority .
He gave up on the extra speech and simply said to the boys and girls, “I suppose all of you know that the First Reserved Camp is at the top of the cliff . The next thing you have to do is climb up before noon . Lunch starts at noon sharp, and the time now is 8 . 27 a . m . You have around three and a half hours to climb . Remember, lunch will not be served after the time slot . ”
The moment Thuja’s words subsided, Tang Ling glared at everyone fiercely, and before they could react, he already headed towards the chains .
“You little prick! Is he telling me that I can’t take first place?” Orston was raging about the fierce glare from Tang Ling which he felt was extremely arrogant . “I’ll beat the shit out of him!” Orston also ran towards the chains .
“Idiots!” Yu said in a muffled voice . The others looked at one another with a puzzled look .
Tang Ling was like a boy who had not eaten anything for three years, but was Orston always starving as well?
Only Andy quietly gulped his saliva .
Was going up within three and a half hours with a single iron chain possible?
“Get going then . ”
Tang Ling and Orston were already a few meters up the chain .
Andy looked at Tang Ling’s determined climbing figure and softly asked Thuja, “Then, what if we don’t make it?”
“Then, you will be hung until you are dried up like a jerky!” Thuja’s jovial mood was ruined by Tang Ling . He felt that this batch of new reserved warriors had too many characteristics of their own, so he had to train them well and hard!
As for Tang Ling? Thuja seemed to have deeply misunderstood him .
Su Yao must’ve tortured the boy for a long time . Right, I guess Orston isn’t having that great a time in his family either .

Forged in Fear and Fury - An Apocalyptic LitRPG
In an attempt to prevent Earths ensuing demise, it is ripped from the void by an entity known as The Totality. It is then fused with a Lost Dungeon World to increase its inhabitants chances of survival in a new, system-enhanced universe. Cade Vale barely avoids death in the first second. Will he be able to overcome the rigors of this new world and survive? Will he be able to carve a new life out of the aether for himself and those whom he loves most? ...Will he be able to avoid becoming everything he hates in order to do so? Artwork by Kayla Basciano - Instagram: vulpix1323 Inspired primarily by the systems in The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound, The Genesis System, and The New World as well as by Savage Divinity, Azarinth Healer, and Shovels in Spades in general. I haven't been able to get these worlds out of my head and I've been waiting for something to fill the void left by the hiatus of Genesis, but so far nothing has scratched that itch as much as ProfoundMagician was able to with the world he created. I figure if I'm going to be thinking about this stuff as much as I do I might as well get better at writing while playing with a number of those ideas that I love. I have a number of specifics and events I want to show in the story, but a lot of the fun is coming up with ways to branch those together cohesively. This is an attempt to alleviate my depression by channeling my creativity into a hobby. Hopefully it's as enjoyable to read as it is to write.

But not everyone understands just how necessary the Crows and their often brutal methods really are. .............................................................................. This story is an alternate history/low fantasy story taking place in Medieval Europe.
