Chapter 168 Scam



Dilan collected the Essence crystals of the three humongous boars before absorbing them directly.

[3 <Silver> Essence of Tier-1 Level 11 Giganon Long-tusk Boars have been absorbed→ +0.7 Strength, +0.5 Health, +0.9 Agility]

Dilan didn’t level up but that was to be expected. Thus, he returned his attention back to Old Jeff with a faint smile.

“You’re not proficient at handling leather professionally, are you?”

Old Jeff didn’t expect this question but he answered Dilan after a moment.

“Even though I’m a blacksmith and my expertise is in forging, I can still create leather armors, if that’s what you want to know.”

While looking at the boar corpses, it was not difficult to figure out what Dilan wanted from him. Thus after hearing Old Jeff’s answer, Dilan smiled again and replied,

“That’s great. I’ll ask Kathrine to send over a butcher to dismantle the boars. Afterward, you can play around with its hide.”

Dilan was in a good mood, which was why he played around a little bit.

Old Jeff could only roll his eyes, not believing that the bloodied person in front of him was capable of joking around at the moment.

He just waved his hand, feeling an impending headache while looking at Dilan, only to send him away.

“I have to forge hundreds of weapons, so please leave…Take good care of the Blazing Serpentine Blade!”-.

“Thanks for this great weapon, I’ll treasure it!” Saying so, Dilan turned around to leave Old Jeff.

With his speed, it didn’t take him long to reach the hospital, where he told Williams to send a few Elite Ascenders to the smithy to protect the old man and safeguard the boar corpses.

Meanwhile, he told Kathrine to send a few butchers along with the Elite Ascenders.

‘Ordinary Tier-1 monsters and all kinds of Tierless monsters will not be able to penetrate the Giganon Long-tusk Boar’s hide. Armors made out of their hide will be great for new Ascenders, and also Oliver, Ailee, and other Ascenders, who need to move smoothly without any disturbance.’

Body parts of monsters were currently much better suited to craft weapons and protective garments simply because the Jadetite and Silver Iron Ore mined from the Krendel’s Underground Valley was of bad quality and grade.

The Serpentine Blade could be considered to be the best weapon one could create with the resources extracted from within the underground valley.

It was a great weapon but that could only be said for a few people and a short-term.

Not many Ascenders would be able to wield the Serpentine Blade properly without injuring anyone, and the ordinary Serpentine Blade was not powerful enough to kill Peak Tier-1 monsters either.

Thus, by connecting the dots one could tell that the Krendel’s Underground Valley’s value was slowly decreasing in the eyes of Dilan and his group.

But that was not the case for everything because Dilan still had to enter the permanent Gate.

This was not for the Stonemonkey Devial plant, which had been carefully removed by Mira or to search for other treasures.

Rather, it was the huge Gate, which he reached only a few minutes after he had emerged in the underground valley.

[Permanent Gate to (Blood Ratmen Kingdom, Kirak). Conditions to enter not met! -All stats <150+>, Tier-2 Level [50]! Special permission granted to <Horned rats>, <Krendels>]

When Dilan reached the large permanent Gate its information popped up right in front of him.

“Reaching Tier-2 level 50 should be more difficult for me than all stats reaching 150…sigh…”

He could only smile, clearly remembering that his progress had been severely restricted. Even 3 Silver Tier-1 Essences of Level 11 monsters provided him with mere 2.1 status points, let alone a level up.

Kathrine and the others were not able to defeat such monsters, which was why he felt even more frustrated whenever he thought about the Blessed Curse he had received upon advancing to Tier-1.

But even then, Dilan could only shrug his shoulders because there was one particular secret his group had comprehended about Essence crystals.

-The stronger your opponent is, the more Essence and status points you will receive upon absorbing their Essence crystals!-

This was the sole reason for Dilan to receive ‘so many’ status points. They would be worth 21 units of status points without his Blessed Cure.

However, that was only in his case as he was the one to have defeated Silver Tier-1 monsters that were even 8 Levels above him!

Unfortunately, this did little to comfort Dilan. After allowing his mind to go astray for a few minutes, Dilan emptied the contents of his backpack in front of him.

A total of five Silver Tier-1 Essence crystals and 109 Bronze Tier-1 Essence crystals lay between him and the large Gate.

No monster was in his proximity as they immediately retreated upon sensing Dilan’s power and terrifying presence.

They could instinctively tell that it would be suicidal to attack Dilan, which was why they hid as far as possible from him.

But that was not something Dilan noticed. He was focused on the azure screens that popped up in front of him.

[<Bronze> Tier-1 grade treasures can be exchanged with 50 <Bronze> Tier-1 Essence crystals of the same type!]

[<Silver> Tier-1 grade treasures can be exchanged with 25 <Silver> Tier-1 Essence crystals of the same type!]

“What a fucking scam…” Dilan nearly choked on his own saliva when he read through the information.

It was already hard enough for him to collect 5 Silver Tier-1 Essence crystals of the same type. Where the hell was he supposed to find 25 Silver Tier-1 monsters? It was not as if such existences were easily found near Rian, to begin with.

His mood plummeted the longer he thought about where he had seen a large group of powerful monsters. What he could recall was that the biggest hordes of monsters he had seen were Bronze Tier-1 monsters, which was actually where he got his hand on the 109 Bronze Tier-1 Essence crystals.

Other than that, the Silver Wolf pack could be considered to have been the biggest group of Silver Tier-1 monsters Dilan had encountered until now.

“So, that means I can give up on the Silver Tier-1 treasures…what a shame!”

The reality was frustrating but Dilan could only accept it with a deep sigh.

“So be it, 2 Bronze Tier-1 treasures are better than nothing, I guess…”

After he said this, Dilan threw most Bronze Tier-1 Essence crystals inside the large permanent Gate. He only left nine on the ground before he issued another sigh.

“Please throw something useful…”

Even if Dilan didn’t need many things right now, it was a fact that he was not up to date with the happenings inside or around Rian.

The mountainside was a place nobody dared to go, and there was no new information about the Sun temple.

Dilan sent Xenia to keep a watch over the Sun temple whenever she had time. However, there was not much to see because the two intelligent races seemed to do nothing but expand their base.

They were building a city, slaughtering the beasts around and it even looked like they had begun to create farmland around the Sun temple.

Dilan was convinced that the races were truly intelligent and that they acted similar to the human race. They may even be more intelligent but that was not something he knew for sure.

However, what Dilan was sure about was that their strength was several times higher than the average strength of his people.

He was not even sure if he could defeat a single one of them…and that was a problem because it meant that a single one of them could annihilate his entire group if desired!

Even Dilan felt uneasy with the mysteries that revolved around the mountainside and the Sun temple. Thus, he desperately hoped that the two Bronze Tier-1 treasures would be helpful in any way!

It took several minutes until the large Gate finished the exchange of his Essence crystals with the treasures that ought to be helpful.

In the meantime, Dilan had absorbed the remaining five Silver Tier-1 Essence crystals and the nine Bronze Tier-1 Essence crystals.

And this…was still not enough for him to level up!

‘So fucking annoying…’
