Chapter 10 Tiger Brother Opens His Eyes!
"Huh...huh..."
On its eighth day of life, and the third day after the fox attack, Cangnian crawled, panting heavily.
However, although it was tiring, the rewards were gratifying.
[Ding! Crawled 10m, Crawling skill proficiency +1! (50/100)]
In just three days, he had already mastered half of his crawling skills!
This all stems from his experience three days ago, which intensified his sense of urgency to become stronger.
Therefore, these days he has been working the hardest to improve his crawling skills, which are the most obvious aspect of his abilities.
As his crawling skills improved, his limbs also grew stronger, and now he crawls steadily without trembling.
In addition, the other unlocked skills are also steadily increasing.
For example, the skill of drinking milk has accumulated enough proficiency yesterday, which has undergone a qualitative change. However, the skill name has not changed. It's just that the volume of milk required to drink for each level of proficiency has increased from 100ml to 500ml!
However, this is not a big problem, because after the qualitative change in his milk-drinking skills, Cang Nian's appetite has indeed increased significantly. Now he can drink nearly 400ml of milk at a time!
In this way, once he reaches around level 50 in his milk-drinking skill proficiency, he will be able to drink 500ml of milk at a time, and the improvement in proficiency will not be much slower than before.
Digestion skills improved in tandem with milk-drinking skills, undergoing a qualitative change. This change wasn't as visually obvious as the qualitative change in milk-drinking skills, but Cang Nian could clearly feel himself getting hungry faster.
Previously, I drank milk eight times a day, but now I drink it twelve times a day. It also seems that my digestion is more efficient at converting energy from food. I can now support a greater amount of exercise by drinking the same volume of milk.
To Cangnian's delight, the improvement in his milk-drinking and digestion skills led to a faster rate of improvement in his defecation and urination skills.
After all, the more you eat, the more you poop. Now, Cangnian's proficiency in both pooping and peeing has reached level 80. It won't be long before he undergoes a qualitative change!
In addition, Cangnian has also mastered the skill of evolving from a baby voice to a baby howl. Whenever his voice is rested, he will let out a howl with all his might.
Therefore, the skill proficiency of "Healing Awake" has now reached level 30.
As for sleep skills, which are not very noticeable, they cannot be improved quickly through effort. One layer is accumulated every three hours of sleep, and there are only 32 layers at present.
The same applies to the Eye Opening skill, which accumulates one level every three hours of eye opening. Since it was unlocked relatively late, there are currently only 12 levels.
However, the improvement in his eye-opening skill is quite obvious. Cang Nian can now see clearly within a range of fifteen meters.
While exercising and reflecting on the day's gains, Cang Nian walked towards Tiger Mom.
This is how he's been spending his days: when he gets tired from exercising, he drinks milk; when he's full from drinking milk, he exercises again. If he feels the urge, he lets out a cry to get his mother to help him relieve himself. It's a bit monotonous, but it's also quite fulfilling.
"what?"
Just then, he suddenly saw a glittering black flash.
Then, following the reflection, he saw Tiger Brother.
After observing more closely, Cangnian finally figured out the source of the reflection!
It's Tiger Brother's eye slit!
Tiger Brother's eyes, which were originally tightly closed, opened two thin slits, and through the slits you could see its moist eyes!
"Ow~!"
Seeing this, Cangnian barked at Tiger Mom.
[Ding~! Healing skill proficiency +1! (31/100)]
In order to increase his skill proficiency, Cangnian roared with all his might every time, which not only diverted the tiger mother's attention but also woke up the sleeping tiger brother.
Tiger Brother, who had been woken up, whimpered twice and wiggled his bottom.
When Tiger Mom heard Cangnian's howl, she came over and started to lick Cangnian's butt.
However, Cangnian was prepared. He dodged the tiger mother by turning his buttocks and then patted the tiger brother's big face with his paw.
During this time, Cangnian finally confirmed that Tiger Brother was indeed acting strangely.
Even with my improved milk-drinking and digestion skills, I can't compete with Tiger Brother's; he eats way too much!
Before he opened his eyes, Cang Nian could only vaguely sense that Hu Di could eat, but after opening his eyes, he realized that Hu Di was a real glutton!
Tiger Brother is less than ten days old. Cang Nian estimated that he weighs about five or six kilograms, while he himself, despite eating so hard and consuming so much every day, probably only weighs about three kilograms now.
This is almost as big as a typical one-month-old tiger cub, but it's nothing compared to the younger tiger brother.
At this moment, Tiger Mom followed Cangnian's movements and looked at Tiger Brother, finally realizing that Tiger Brother was about to open his eyes!
Seeing this, Tiger Mom happily moved closer to Tiger Brother, bent down and gently licked Tiger Brother's chubby little face with her big tongue.
In the eyes of the older child, Tiger Brother's face was indeed big, but in the eyes of Tiger Mother, Tiger Brother's face was incredibly small.
Tiger Brother hummed contentedly as his mother licked his face.
A moment later, the glue stuck between Tiger Brother's eyes was licked away, revealing wet, bewildered eyes, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
However, it was indeed still not fully awake.
The sudden appearance of unfamiliar sensory abilities caused Tiger Brother's brain to freeze for several seconds. Then, it looked at Tiger Mother's whiskers and curiously tried to catch them with its paws.
But it has never been very active since birth. As soon as it raises its front paws, its half-squatting hindquarters lose their balance and it falls flat on its back.
Looking at her adorable little tiger cub, the mother tiger smiled warmly and lovingly licked the fur on his belly.
Three days ago, while out hunting, a fox took the opportunity to attack the den, almost causing harm to the tiger cubs. This left the proud tiger mother with lingering fears.
Fortunately, my little one is lucky and survived without any danger to its life; otherwise, I don't know how heartbroken it would be.
This also made it determined that next time it hunted, it must be quick and decisive, and in order to reduce the time spent outside, it should drag the prey back to the den to eat after a successful hunt, instead of letting it eat its fill outside before returning.
Three days ago, it had been lying in ambush for a long time, and after successfully hunting, it ate its fill on the spot. However, when it returned to its den, it heard Cang Nian's terrified cries for help.
However, it was that hearty meal that replenished its nutrients, which enabled it to sustain the terrifying energy expenditure of Cangnian and Tiger Brother.
With the system's help, Cangnian's growth rate was already beyond that of an ordinary tiger cub.
Tiger Brother, on the other hand, can eat and sleep a lot!
With the two brothers together, it felt like the tiger mom was raising eight tiger cubs at the same time!
Although this is the first litter of tiger cubs for the mother, she has no prior experience raising multiple cubs.
Thinking of this, the smile on Tiger Mom's face turned into worry.
It had only been three days since its last hunt and meal, and it already felt that its body's nutrients could only sustain the two brothers for another two days...
The child cannot eat it, for fear that the child will go hungry and not grow properly.
My child eats so much, I always worry about not having enough food at home...
Sad...
