The Fat God System

Chapter 74: Stockpile

He had saved up the wings of the caterpillars to be eaten at a later date. Now that he had gotten a storage pouch, he could stockpile on wings and eat them while in battle.

Even though the system told him he had a storage pouch, he did not know where it was or how to access it. He just had to experiment on himself.

He bent down and picked up a caterpillar wing and folded it until it was like a piece of gum. He opened his jaws wide and swallowed the wings without chewing them.

He gulped, and the wings traveled through his throat and towards his stomach, where it was instantly dissolved for energy. He then poked his throat to try and vomit the wings out, but he only gagged.

It looked like that was not the right way to access his storage pouch. Thinking to himself, he looked at his own body and thought up an idea.

He folded another pair of wings and held it in his hands. He then pushed it towards his belly until it sank between the folds of his fats.

Hugh watched as his fats gobbled up the pair of wings and made it disappear in his body. Hugh was surprised that it worked, and he got a notification in his mind.

STORAGE POUCH

Size: 20cm x 10cm

Items:

- Winged Caterpillar wings x1

++++++++++++++

He now had a storage space inside his body. This kind of ability was a tremendous help to Hugh because he could store materials inside his body.

The reason he wanted to go to the dungeons is that he could eat all the materials here that would benefit him in some way. With this ability, he could save valuable materials and eat them for later.

He could also store some food inside the storage that he could eat while fighting. This would give him tremendous help and could extend his armor for an extended time.

The only problem right now was that it only had limited space. He would have to find a suitable food source that would fit many quantities but still give him enough nourishment for his armor.

Then, he imagined the wings inside his storage space to appear in his hands. A smile started to form on his face as the wings grew from his palms. His problem was solved in his mind.

The caterpillar wings gave him enough energy to extend his armor by one second. It could also be folded in small sizes that could fit inside his storage space.

The caterpillar wings were the most efficient food source that he could stockpile in his storage space. It was also easily digestible and would not hinder his fighting skills.

DAILY MISSIONS:

Eat 30,000 kcal (2,100/30,000)

Eat 5,000 kg of wood (0/5,000)

++++++++++++++

His mission for today was also simple to complete. He had already eaten seven caterpillars today and gave him 2,100 calories. The rest of the wood he could get on the giant tree.

His plan for today was simple, hunt all of the winged caterpillars that he could find. That way, he would stockpile all the wings that could fit inside his storage space.

He thought back to the time that the winged caterpillars suddenly appeared. From what he remembered, the caterpillars appeared after he had eaten a certain amount of clouds on the floor.

He did not know if this was a coincidence or not, but he was willing to try. If it was true, then he could spend the whole day just killing caterpillars and gathering them for their wings.

After he had gathered the rest of the wings on the floor, he started to tear apart the clouds and eat them. He did not stop and munched on the clouds waiting for the caterpillars to appear.

He had eaten tens of meters of clouds, but the caterpillars still had not appeared. He continued to eat clouds on the floor for an hour until he felt a rumbling on the floor.

Lumps of clouds shot up and revealed the juicy caterpillars that he had been waiting for. There were only ten caterpillars this time, but he was not discouraged.

He started to kite them away from the group and defeat them one by one by punching their faces three times. It had become so much easier dealing with the caterpillars now that he could use his armor for ten seconds.

It also helped that he knew the attack patterns of the caterpillars. He only had to worry about a potential bite here and there, but he could defeat the caterpillars without a problem.

Hugh continued to hunt for the caterpillars and fill his stockpile for hours on end. He did not feel tired because all he could think about was the caterpillar wings. It also helped that the caterpillar meat was so delicious that he could eat them every day.

Hugh would sometimes get lucky and find caterpillars after thirty minutes, but most of the groups only showed up after about an hour or so.

He did not know how much time had passed, but he was happy to see the results of his grinding.

'-Winger Caterpillars x150.'

With this stockpile, he would be able to use his armor for two and a half minutes. Of course, he would only use these in case of critical times where he had to defend himself or else he would die.

There was still an unfinished caterpillar carcass near his feet, so Hugh decided to finish it because he did not like to waste food.

As he was about to pick it up, he saw a dark shadow loom past the caterpillar carcass. He heard the sounds of beating wings and cold wind breezes past his neck.

Hugh looked up and saw a giant eagle hovering above him. It did not look directly at him but towards the caterpillar carcass near his feet.

Hugh immediately put up his guard as he got ready to battle the eagle. As he observed it up close, Hugh noticed that the eagle was identical to the one he had encountered before.

It was the same size and the same wingspan, so Hugh wondered if it was the same creature from before. It seemed more and more plausible since he was also in the same place before.

Since the dungeon resets every day, that must also mean that the creatures also reset. Before he could think about it any further, he saw the eagle soar through the skies at high speeds.

Hugh already knew what would happen because he already experienced this before. Like in his memory, the eagle stopped mid-air and fell in the air with its beaks directed towards him.

The eagle was planning to attack him using the same tactics that it used before. Since he already knew what would happen, Hugh was not worried.

He could now use his armor for ten seconds, which he could use to fight the eagle. Yesterday, the eagle was able to drag Hugh to the air and bring him to the giant tree.

This time, Hugh did not want to experience life or death scenarios up in the air again, so he planned to avoid getting caught.

As he watched the eagle fall through the skies, he realized something. Would the treasure pile of the squirrels also be reset?

As the eagle pierced through the air aimed for Hugh's body, he changed his mind at the last second. Hugh planned to dodge the eagle, but he decided to take it head-on.

The eagle dove down and was only a few meters left until it would pierce through Hugh's body, but Hugh did not move. That was the perfect time to dodge, but he only powered up his armor on his fist.

At the very last second, Hugh sidestepped the eagle's beak and let its body pass through to the side. Then, Hugh grabbed onto the eagle's claws and did not let go.

The eagle felt a heavy weight on its claws and looked down at Hugh. It was surprised to see Hugh hanging on, so it tried to throw him off.

Hugh already knew that the eagle would try to do this, so without hesitation, he started to climb the eagle's body. The eagle soared through the air in a zig-zag to try and throw off Hugh, but Hugh had a firm grip that would not let go.

Hugh climbed on top of the eagle without any problem because he used his armor for an exceptional grip. Once in the eagle's back, he made himself comfortable and waited for the eagle to bring him to the giant tree.
