chapter 8 food and shelter

as Ezekiel walk for over an hour he got close to the mountain. the mountain had very luscious green trees and Tall Grass some bushes with fruit on it he decided to pick some of the fruit but since he didn't know what it was he wasn't sure if it was poisonous then an idea struck struck him.

Ezekiel: Stephanie is it possible to summon my shadow and have him eat this fruit to see if it's poisonous or not and to see if so will there be any side effects as well and will I feel the pain as well.

[Stephanie: yes it is possible to summon Your Shadow 2 test for poison.]

Ezekiel: alright thank you system now summon my shadow.

as he said that a shadow started working out of his shadow and walk to hit me was about 2 in tall Ezekiel them picked up the shadow pluck the fruit and said.

Ezekiel: shadow I need you to eat this and see if it's alright to consume.

as he had a fruit that was the size of an apple purple and color blue and green stripes. after a few bites Ezekiel waited 10 minutes see if there was any changes in the shadow he didn't see anything Shadow still continue to consume the fruit. so Ezekiel decided to take a couple fruits with he stuck 12 in his inventory continue to walk. he did the same thing for various other fruits 6 in total as he continued walking towards the mountain as he got closer he can see a small cave he walked towards the cave his instincts were telling them everything was fine. but just to be cautious as he since his shadow in ahead of him to make sure there was nothing dangerous inside 20 minutes later the shadow walked out shaking its head Ezekiel let out a sigh and walked into the cave with his shadow. then *Bing*

[ congratulations for completing the first emergency mission host has been awarded 200 SOS points and 1000 XP and since host was able to do it in a shorter time than required post has been given + 1 to endurance.]

Ezekiel was happy that he was able to complete the first mission but now he has to complete the second one and this one going to take awhile and he knew he was getting hungry so he ate the fruit Intel he was full since he knew he couldn't do much the first thing he did was use 50 XP and opened up his first energy point. he sat down and said

Ezekiel: Stephanie open up my first energy point and is it going to be painful.

[Stephanie: yes hosts it's going to be very painful.]

he clenched his fist and told the system to get started as soon as the system starting unlocking his first energy point he bit his mouth in pain continue to endure for 5 minutes. when he was done he released the heavy side he ordered his shadow to go fight some insects as he closes eyes and try to gather the energy around him and into his body.

he took a deep breath and focused for nearly 20 minutes he couldn't feel nothing so you took another deep breath in and they excelled to calm his mind and frustration he did so for another 5 minutes once his mind was clear he once again focused on the energy.

around him another 20 minutes have passed and he felt something it was as if he can see the air but he knew he wasn't that was the energy around him he focused his one energy Point into absorbing some of that energy as some of the energy went into him he tried to control it as he did he bit down on his teeth in pain he didn't think it was going to be that painful to try to control the energy for 30 minutes you continue to try until here heard *ding*

[your Shadow has killed one at XP 2 and 1 SOS point congratulations host for your first kill house has been awarded 100 XP + SOS points]

Ezekiel was happy at least he was figured out how he can earn his points of XP and SOS points although it's a slow process it was worth it now if you can only control this energy. he continued to draw the energy into him again since he was Disturbed the first time with a deep inhale in and an exhale out he focused again on the energy this time it was easier as he's already done it before he brought the energy into him and instead of trying to make the energy go through his body he let the energy sit where it was at and slowly let it seep into his energy vain.

he did that for another hour then he let out another sigh and thought to himself "this is going to be a long process" he was only able to move the energy 1-in in total but he was able to fill the his energy vein was slowly healing at the Edge of the energy point and it didn't look cracked but it was still a little withered he got up and stretched and was prepared to go back and continue putting energy into his vein.

he knew that it was tiring and tedious process but he had a feeling if he didn't do it he really would die he actually believe what the system told him his instincts we're telling him to get stronger and heal quicker for he continued he looked at the status log to see what a shadow was up to it turns out his shadow was able to kill for more ants before he died letting out a heavy sigh he had to wait another 23 hours to summon in then he remembered if he uses 500 XP can summon his shadow again so that's what he did but this time he didn't send his shadow out or summon instead he let it stay in the shadow Ezekiel set back down he continued get in the energy into his energy vein.

he was getting ready to start getting more energy again so he summoned his shadow to keep Lookout while he gathered energy The Shadow appear from behind him walked a little towards the front of the cave. Ezekiel set down towards the back of the cave to get ready to start the Gathering energy again this time though he spent another hundred EXP in order to unlock his second energy point.
