"Why don't tell what you want instead?" she seed to realize I didn't want the coins just to store them, "I have tons of items here. I'm sure I have what you are looking for."
"Then give a few tons of those tons you have," I teased her again and her annoyed face made it so hard for to not laugh.
"Alright, alright… I need stat points. Do you have any?" I asked amidst my laughs while knowing she had so.
But what she had would never be enough for my needs.
"Stat points? Why didn't you say this from the start," but the confidence she spoke with took by surprise.
"How much do you have?" I didn't expect her to be so confident to match my needs, "I need a lot."
"Thousands perhaps?" she rolled up her eyes as if she was talking about cabbage and not stat points.
"Th… how co you have such astronomical wealth?!" I got a fright just from the way she said thousands. It was like she had much more than that.
"It's nothing," she shrugged and confird my thoughts by what she added next, "I don't even have stat points, I even have stat beads, orbs, and even crystals."
"Holy sh*t!" I couldn't help but curse in fright, "how did you get all these? We are still in quest one!"
Stat points could give one point in one stat, however stat beads could grant fifty stat points. As for stat orbs, each could give five hundred stat points. Stat crystals? Damn! I only read about them in the records as the highest form of the stat, giving almost five thousand stat points per crystal.
They were considered, even by my ti standards, as imnse treasures!
"It's really remarkable for a human like you to know about these forms of stats," her eyes looked at in interest, "not only this, but all your performance and knowledge makes wonder… Are you a reincarnator or a jumper perhaps?"
I gave her a plain smile. A reincarnator was just like the girl from the illusionist. She could be reborn with part of her mories intact. As for the jumpers, they were more scary beings.
They had access to the endless multiverse, allowing them to switch worlds with a snap of their fingers. They could retain their mories, their skills, their cultivation, and even their inventory.
The only drawback was that they needed to start the apocalypse from the start. But c'mon, starting with all these advantages seed a bit biased, right?
"That's none of your business," I simply said, "but how co you have all these? Are you lying to ?"
*Woosh!*
Within her hands a large piece of silver crystal appeared. It was exactly like what I read before at records. I sucked a cold air of breath and grew slightly greedy for her imnse wealth.
"This is nothing actually," she shrugged, "not only for , but for all the elites coming from other worlds. Before we ca here we had to go through a test. Fighting inside a world on the verge of collapse and getting many items from there."
She threw the crystal casually in the air like she didn't really care about it. "It might seem like a big deal, but it isn't. We are limited by the system for each quest. So even if I have tons of stat points, they are left inside my inventory to be covered with dust."
"Then give them," I couldn't restrain myself anymore.
"I can give you what you want," she said in a sly tone while her face showed an embarrassed expression, one that didn't suit soone like her, "but what I will get in return?"
"I can order you to give everything you have," I shrugged as the contract between and her was slightly similar to the one I had with Angelica.
"Bad human, you should be more caring for ," she pouted her lips and put such an alluring expression on her face but I didn't shake this ti.
"Give five thousand… no, ten thousand stat points then," I extended my hand and she looked at in a weird way.
"Only five is enough," she knew she couldn't get what she wanted in such a way. Instead, she ca closer and even leant her head over my shoulder like she was my girlfriend or sothing. "Promise to be nice to from now on, ok?"
I could resist her if she stood far, but standing this near made my heart palpitate. Her sll was so magical that it took control over my senses and made unable to feel anything else but her.
*Woosh!*
Yet at this mont the pendant kicked to work and cleansed all of her charm away from my heart. I took a deep breath and before I could say anything; the entire world shook.
*Rumble!* *Rumble!* *Rumble!*
I turned towards that direction and saw the golden pillar getting weaker and weaker with each rumble. In return the silver pillar remained the sa.
"Are they done?" she asked while I nodded.
"That dragon lost as expected," I said before turning in a serious manner towards her, "give five thousand stats now. Best to be of stat beads and points."
I needed to distribute stats among my three Bulltors. I could even buy another one and push his level up without problems.
But three Bulltors seed enough for now. She knew the ti wasn't suitable for any play and handed the points, beads, and even one crystal.
When she gave that crystal, she winked with her lewd nature, "this is my gift for you. Don't forget to treat well later."
I could only remain silent while storing this wealth away. Twelve thousand stat points! Damn! This was a wealth that made even feel danger in my life if others heard about this.
But as she said, we were all bound by the system. Even with such wealth, I couldn't put it to maximum use in a short ti.
"Let's go," I moved to touch my Bulltors when a window popped up in front of .
[Do you want to store your warrior?]
"Yes."
*Woosh!*
The next instant the Bulltor vanishes like it was never there. Inside my inventory, a small token appeared there with the shape of the Bulltor on its surface.
"Can we take away our warriors?!" She seed surprised by what I was doing. I took the other two before starting to run inside the maze.
"Warriors can help us not only here but outside as well," I knew this was a detail not ntioned during this test, but I was sure about that.
Or else why were their prices so astronomical? If it was just for this quest, then it would be a hefty price to pay.
"Why are you running fast?" She copied and stored away all her warriors.
"We are the last two contenders remaining beside him," I said while not decreasing my speed, "and he is now injured and exhausted. We shouldn't give him any ti to recuperate."
I knew that the Selvator would beat the dragon kid from the start. But that didn't an the Selvator won in an easy way. He must have paid a lot of price just to get the dragon killed.
Not only his stamina, but also his warriors would be lost. If given enough ti, that Selvator would salvage the dragon from his blessing points, and he would replenish his lost warriors for sure.
Not to ntion anding his wounds. The best timing to hit him was now. Or else he would grow stronger and beco more formidable.
The two of us ventured inside the labyrinth. The walls kept our vision blind but I already had a clue about the direction we should take.
I kept taking turns towards that direction. In less than five minutes we finally reached the place of the Selvator.
But there was an unpleasant surprise waiting for us there!
"Ka ka ka, I thought we were going to have a whale but it turned out to be a small fish."
"They are still our contenders. As they are here, let's get rid of them."
"But there was an announcent before, wasn't one eliminated? Don't tell the two of them did that!"
"If so then that succubus girl might be hiding her strength. Let's kill her first."
As we both reached there, I couldn't help but freeze in deep shock. I didn't find the Selvator alone, but that dragon kid stood all alive next to him.
I looked up at the Selvator youth and didn't find any speck of dust over his armor. Not even a scratch was there!
"You two…" Rachel said in a shaking tone and baffled expression, "you didn't fight each other?"
"Ka ka ka, I have to admit that Selvator has a good brain," the dragon laughed in carefree manner like we weren't a threat to him.
"They allied together," I said in a deep tone while watching the warriors of them standing perfectly fine. It wasn't only that, their numbers increased a little as well.
The thirty warriors of the dragon turned fifty, with five elites appearing in the middle of them. As for the Selvator, his initial seven elites turned fifteen.
These two… They outplayed in this one. I had to admit, this move was really brilliant.
Allying together wasn't the big deal, but managing to read the entire situation and co up with this fake play was the real deal. That Selvator… he wasn't only strong, but also cunning.
He was dangerous, really dangerous.
Despite him saying they should kill Rachel first, his eyes never moved away from .. It wasn't Rachel his target, it was .
