[Basic Skill - Hunter.]
When I saw an additional notice about the new skill appeared within my status panel, I raise my hand slightly to read the contents, but out of sudden, a call came from the crowd, and I have to quickly go back to them immediately. Unexpectedly, the one that called out to me is the Team Leader Ling Tian Ming himself.
"Little brother, what is your name?" he asked. I immediately answer him with my name, as he takes his effort to remember it. He then leads me to a small building located just right beside the town hall and as we get into the building, about a hundred of the riders and guards is taking their rest within. The moment I get in, I've seen a sight that wasn't too delightful and in the same time, depressing compared to the atmosphere outside.
"Little brother, what you did today is very heroic, and it actually saves most of us. But the next time, do not rashly take such action as it would cause you your life if you are a bit less careful." Ling Tian Ming expression changed within seconds. When I take a look around, three men are standing close to the wall at the far end of the room, where depressing expression is covering their face.
That's the Ling Hun Town Mayor if I'm not wrong, and that two by his side is the Town Guard's Captain and also the Town Treasurer. What are three of them doing here? I looked at the three people and later back to Ling Tian Ming, and without any reservation of my curiosity, I asked a word "Why?". Ling Tian Ming then walked over to the table and chairs on a corner and hinted that I should take a seat beside him as if he wanted to tell me about a long story.
The moment he starts, everyone within the room listens patiently, as everyone within the room had already gone through such experience to understand what was being explained. Although in between, many stories had sidetracked for a little, at the end of the day, this story is all about the Infestation of Goblin Tribe, their Settlement, and also some other monsters residing within the Ling State, one of the north Four States.
To make sure I understand it, I devise it into a more simple way, according to my own understandings.

It all starts when the Tian Gong Country is established. Outside of the country, a vast land ruled by many kinds of Monsters and Beast, even some under the reign of Mystical Sage exist. And so coincidently, the Tian Gong Country is located exactly beside this land known as the Woods of Hundred Tribes. Just like its name, this piece of land resides by hundred tribes of different monsters, and even some humans and other beings. But what is so unfortunate is, this land shares a border together with a total of ten of the Tian Gong Country's state.
Thus, this causes a long and exhausting war to happens, where it continues from the Tian Gong Calendar 0001 until currently, The year 2017. The moment I heard about the current year is at 2017, I was so surprised, as my death time was on 2017 as well. But I controlled my anxiety because no matter what, I had already reborn into this world.
Very frequently, the Woods of Hundred Tribes will allow some smaller tribes to take their chances to loot the town under the controls of Tian Gong Country, with the intention to rob our resources and women to assist them in getting stronger. Most of the time, the Goblin Tribe is chosen as their kind breeds extremely quickly. This time, the group was a very small vanguard that was shifting from their initial target towards the Ling Hun Town, but if they are not careful, perhaps a bigger group might make their attack sooner or later.
The banquet quickly ends with everyone back where they belonged before I excuse myself from the house as well. Politely, I ask for forgiveness before Ling Tian Ming suddenly speaks. "Little brother, we still have something to talk about." he stands up and walked over to my side. I am slightly stunned with his words, but still, I anticipate it, because myself to have the urge to know more news about this world I am living within.
"We have hunted quite an amount of Goblins, but most of their stuff is not usable, if you don't mind, we would like to give this all to you, perhaps you could sell them to some salvaging workshop and earn some money?" Ling Tian Ming brings out a compartment as he pours all the contents within for me to choose.

The moments all the trash in their eyes appear, I immediately have my eyes shine with MONEY! I looked at Ling Tian Ming with my puppy eyes and politely asked. "Are you sure your people don't need this stuff?" but the next moment, a few of the guards stands up and said, "Little brother, you had saved quite a plenty of lives today, why would we be bothered to give you all this item that barely worth ten Black Spirit Crystals? Only those that really daring would actually take this all back to the Goblin Settlement to resell them for money."
"If that's the case, this little brother will take it." I happily accepted the gifs and left the home as I went back to the Refining Workshop directly. Reaching my room, I immediately withdraw all the item in my inventory, as I looked at the changes. The happiness within my eyes could not be hidden anymore, as I am just got rewarded with loads of gifts for just helping a little!

Allows friendship with Goblin Tribe
The moment I looked at the Goblin Skin that was automatically transformed into a Piece of Goblin Hide (as well a cape), I am quite surprised. I immediately put it on and look at myself. Hmm... Not bad. Then I start to take a look at the Goblin Beads, and later the Goblin Pouch. Since I have a total of 50 Goblin Pouch in my inventory, no matter how I will need to simplify them before I could use them. I guess the only way I could do is to head to the Compartment Upgrade Store to see what they could do.
I then check on the Goblin Custom Armour that is stacked on the side of my bed. After I have a few inspection on some of its parts, seems like in the term of size, defensive parts, and a number of combinations, are all slightly different from how a human would arrange. Even if I managed to salvage this equipment and even further upgrading it, this equipment would be only usable by goblins.
But wait!
I have the Goblin Hide to increase my friendship! I even have the Goblin Bead as their currency, and the pile of Goblin Custom Armour, If I make my step correctly, I can actually head to their settlement to make some business with them! But will this decision go correctly? I think for a short while, and soon I decided that this will all depend on fate. If I bothered to think about this all for now, sooner or later, I will become bald.
Then, I remembered that I have something I need to take a look. I raise my hand up and had the status panel opened in front of me, as I tried to see what skill had it just added into my Skill Page. At the same time as I scrolled, most of my skill updates are presented before me, allowing me to roughly knew which skills I need to put some effort and which one doesn't need too much. And finally, after some scrolling, I found the new skill on the bottom of the page.
Skill Name:
Basic Skills - Hunter Level 1 (0/1,000)
Specialty:
(2%) Increase in accuracy when using ranged weapon.
(2%) Increase in finding better look when hunting.
Quirk:
None
Notice:
A Basic survival skill that allows the user to have better sight and results when hunting, and also increase his capability in using any ranged weapon.
Finally! A battle skill! With this skill in my page, I can extend my battle capability when using range weapons. This means the Demonic Air Shooter and Demonic Metal Slugs will become a required tools for me to properly travel around in this world! From this moment, I felt that my confidence in surviving within this world had just increased by at least a level, and giving me so much spirit to see to what extent I could do.

How am I Supposed to Save This World with No Power?
Wu Li was but a student trapped in a future he did not want when the Portal sought him out to become the Savior of an entire world. However, unlike any beings born in that world, Wu has not a single ounce of power within his body. Worse yet, he's the fourth one that's been summoned in history and he's got massive shoes to fill. How will he overcome his own powerlessness and become the savior that everyone expects him to be? With a beautiful girl acting as his slightly disappointed yet adorable guardian, a smoking hot rivalling bounty hunter from the High societies out to take his head, and countless other encounters along the way, Wu fights on to become the greatest of the four saviors, while seeding this world with...the principles of science. This is a story set in a world with a rich history of the magic power known as the Wave, and all native species are capable of interacting with the Wave to obtain power in a variety of ways. Think of this as a combination of Dr Stone and Black Clover! I am writing this story using similar structures to anime seasons, and the chapters in itself are structured more like manga chapters. The first two seasons are already planned out, and it is likely going to be daily upload (12 noon EST) of chapters from ~ 2 k words in length during the 'season' when there is backlog of chapters, with a week or two of a break in between seasons if no backlog. If you liked this story, please drop a rating and review. If you hated it, please drop a review and help me get better. Don't just spam a 0.5 rating and leave like a coward lol.

Summoning America
Entirely cut off from Earth, the United States finds itself in a scientific impossibility: the entire country, including the continental landmass and separated states and territories, was transported to another world. Unlike Earth, this new planet boasts phenomena unknown to science. Magic reigns supreme in this new region of the universe, bolstered by the natives' own scientific progression. Monsters roam wastelands and dungeons, subsisting off unfortunate travelers, local fauna, and sometimes even entire towns! Ambassador Samuel Anders is tasked with contacting the various nations and entities of this new world. Despite his best attempts at diplomacy, the arrogance and hostility of the natives prove to be an unnavigable barrier. War is the only alternative. Eventually, fears surface regarding an ancient evil: the Ravernal Empire. How will the United States handle the threats of this new neighborhood? What magical wonders will its adventurous citizens find? This Summoning Japan inspired work will follow the United States as it is summoned to a New World. The story will begin with the United States’ initial encounter with the Rodenius continent. Although starting similarly to the original story, Summoning America will begin to diverge greatly as the war against the Lourian Kingdom comes to an end. For the context of this work, I expect that you have already familiarized yourself with the original piece, “Summoning Japan” also known as “Nihonkoku Shoukan”.
