Chapter 29 - Monster Crystal Cores!

If it weren’t for the fact that this was a neutral space, he would have killed the woman in that very instant. This woman was like a ticking time bomb. He couldn’t figure out who she was, despite the fact that both of them were from the same planet.

If she was from Earth, it meant that she would know how those movie, game, and anime genres work. But Han Gui didn’t want anyone else to have such an advantage.

It was the survival of the fittest, after all.

On the other hand, Aria was also a little surprised. When she saw Han Gui before this, she thought he was just an ordinary person. Now, she could feel a murderous aura emanating from his body.

And it was quite a suffocating aura. It was as if she could be killed in the next second. Immediately, Aria became vigilant.

She had already known that Han Gui was the novice winner. Although she did not know what his reward was, she knew it was one that would make him stronger just by judging from his current aura.

She had killed eight people in the game and obtained a total of 800 points. When the game ended, she arrived in this place empty-handed.

800 points were all she had, which put her in a predicament when she used the ball of light to activate Infinite Store. Even if she used up all her points to increase her attributes, she didn’t have enough to increase any of them by 1.

In the end, she bought a set of level 3 defensive equipment, a Desert Eagle, 100 bullets, and a triangular military knife. Now, she was left with 0 points.

But the man she was facing must have been able to increase his attributes many more times. How else could he emanate such an aura? They were both new players, so how could there be such a big difference already?

“Why are you looking at me as if you’re going to eat me up, Handsome?”

No matter what, she was still the queen of assassins. Aria reacted to his oppressive aura with a seemingly innocent giggle.

“I do want to eat you up without even spitting out your bones.”

Han Gui stared at Aria and slowly relaxed his clenched fists.

Han Gui knew that he couldn’t kill Aria here and now, but he remembered the darker world out there and said, “Let me give you a piece of advice. In the world outside the city, monsters have crystal cores in their heads. Each crystal core can increase any of our attributes by 0.1. Whether you go or not is up to you.”

After saying that, Han Gui left without looking back. He knew Alicia would doubt him, but it did not matter. He just wanted to play a dirty trick.

‘The outside world is a place for the strong. Would you go? If you don’t, you will probably end up a sitting duck. But if you do, you will have to struggle to survive.’

The night is dark and full of terrors. Han Gui remembered this sentence very clearly, but had Aria even heard of it? He didn’t know.

Han Gui might not know how terrifying the outside world was, but if it could kill Aria, that was all he needed for now. He was planning to go over with Xinyue at some point anyway. If they met Aria there, he’d just finish her off.

This woman was very dangerous, and keeping her alive would be a disaster.

Aria started to lower her guard when Han Gui left. Although she knew that Han Gui could not kill her at that very moment, she was still a little afraid.

His aura was too strong and suffocating. She did not dare to imagine how strong Han Gui was now. As for the advice he gave before he left…

Aria looked at the players who were in a hurry in the distance and frowned. Then, she turned around and walked towards the edge of the city.

She wanted to see if any players had left to verify with her own eyes whether Han Gui was telling the truth.

Monsters? Crystal cores? Increasing attributes? These were indeed very tempting to her.

Aria’s attribute levels for Strength, Agility, Constitution, and Spirit were extraordinary. Her four-dimensional attributes were all above 1. Even her weakest attribute was as high as 1.3 points.

Infinite Space calculated an average value for each attribute and weighed the value of each attribute point based on the average. The strike force of 1 strength point was 50 kg. For a woman to receive an evaluation of 1.3 strength points – 65 kg of Strength – was already very terrifying.

Externally, Aria was well-proportioned with no obvious bulks of muscles. No one could ever guess that she’d have Strength equivalent to 65 kg.

If caught off guard, even players with 2 or 3 strength points could be taken out by her. She was an assassin after all.

Stalking from the shadows before striking at the opportune moment was a basic skill for an assassin.

She followed a few players out of the city. The moment she did, she immediately felt uncomfortable, as if she had been cursed.

She lowered her head and chased after the players as they started to move further away. She wanted to see what these people were up to.

Not long after, she saw the so-called monsters. They were like the monsters in the zombie game.

As the monsters wandered in the darkness, the players would hunt and kill them. And each time the players succeeded, they would knock on the monster’s head as if they were looking for something.

A crystal core? Aria remembered Han Gui saying that a crystal core could increase attributes by 0.1, which was equivalent to obtaining 100 points. In this way, she could save some points.

As she followed them, Aria realized that these players did not dare to go too far. The darkness was like an abyss, where new monsters could always appear and kill endlessly.

But not every monster had a crystal core. As far as Aria could see, many players had already killed forty to fifty monsters, but none had obtained a crystal core.

Despite their efforts, the players did not show any signs of frustration, as if they were already used to such chances.

Obtaining a crystal core did not seem to be easy. Moreover, these monsters were not weak. Their skin was rough and their flesh was thick. Their attack power was also very strong.

Suddenly, Aria saw a monster slap a player. That player, whose strength was even higher than hers, coughed up blood and retreated. It was likely that he had suffered some serious injuries.

However, there would always be a reward for one’s efforts. After killing that monster, another player searched the corpse and took out a crystal core that flickered with a faint red light. The player looked at it with a slightly pleasant expression.

“It’s a crystal core that can increase attributes!”

Everyone’s attention was focused on the monster, even the injured ones and those who had ventured several meters further away..
