Chapter 49: The Deal
Su Xiao woke up in the afternoon.
A good night's sleep refreshed him. As he sat down on the sofa, he smelled food.
There were several ready meals on the coffee table next to him.
A plate of rice, grilled fish and a bowl of aromatic soup...
There was a note next to the food.
«Byakuya, I went to the branch office to report on our progress in killing the ghouls
Akira Mado».
After that, Su Xiao warmed up. Although Akira wasn't strong, she was a good helper.
After eating all the food, Su Xiao took out five white treasure chests and opened them individually.
These five chests had all fallen from ordinary ghouls, and Su Xiao didn't expect too much from them.
As a result, the following items fell out of all these five chests:.
[1100 coins of paradise
Kakuhou (Class " A») × 2
Kakuhou (Class " B») × 1]
Two of the chests contained only Paradise coins, while the other three contained only kakuhou.
These kakuhou were useless to him right now, but Su Xiao could get contribution points for selling them or make a kuinkyo out of them.
But even if he didn't make a kuinkyo out of them, he could sell these kakuhou in Paradise.
The fact that he got 1,100 coins from five chests was not a bad acquisition.
Su Xiao leaned back on the sofa and started planning his next steps.
First of all, he had to complete the second main task, because the penalty for his failure was quite serious, namely, subtracting 3 attribute points from each characteristic.
Losing three points of strength, agility, and intelligence wasn't so bad, but losing three points of stamina was... then he would only have three stamina points left.
The consequences of such a decline could be imagined.
As for the charisma and luck attributes, the effect of reducing them by three points will become even more terrifying, as their value will reach zero.
As for charisma, Su Xiao had an assumption that this attribute did not reflect a person's beauty, but the ability to endear another person to himself.
For example, people with a high charisma score will be very pleasant to talk to or just be around them. As an example, you could take any popular stars.
As for Su Xiao... if a high charisma was added to his appearance, it would lead to hell on earth.
However, he didn't see anything wrong with his low charisma score. If he joins the dark forces ' camp, he will become especially popular.
As for his luck being reduced by 3 points... well, if it becomes negative, then he will be in constant danger.
Hence, he had to complete the main task as quickly as possible, not to mention that when he completed it, he would receive 1 attribute point and 1500 Paradise coins, which was quite a nice reward.
But in addition to this, he will need to complete the mission of the Hunter.
As for the Hunter's mission, Heaven didn't specify a reward for completing this mission, but Su Xiao felt that the reward for completing the Hunter's mission would be good. After all, he was helping Rai eliminate unwanted contractors.
— We need to find another hive.
Su Xiao had had a good harvest last night, and he wasn't going to look for the ghouls one at a time — it would only be a waste of time.
The best choice is to search for a hive.
But they wouldn't be easy to find, and the hives that had been known for a long time were too dangerous. For example, from May 1 to 4, there were hundreds and thousands of very strong ghouls in the hives.
Even Su Xiao wouldn't dare go there. After all, if a thousand ghouls attacked him at the same time, even if they were all ' B ' - class, they would still kill him.
He needed to find a hive where there were about a hundred ghouls. If there are more of them, things can get out of hand.
Last night, he was able to kill several dozen, if not a hundred, ghouls mostly because they came to him one or two or three at a time.
Fighting a couple of ghouls and fighting a hundred ghouls at a time were completely different things, and Su Xiao was still a human.
Right now, any serious wound could kill him.
He needed to go to the Helter Skelter bar again, Itori should know some information.
He wasn't going to beat the information out of her. It wasn't a good solution for the long term.
Even a rabbit would bite a person if they were cornered, let alone someone who was an "SS"-class ghoul.
Picking up the phone on the coffee table, he dialed Akira's number.
— Byakuya, are you awake? Akira Mada's voice was crisp and pleasant.
— Things were settled?
— All the bodies were taken away and they are now in the headquarters. If they don't rebel, I can get a new kuinke, " Akira chuckled after saying that. — Byakuya, how do we deal with the kakuhou of these ghouls, they were all killed by you, so only you can dispose of their kakuhou.
Su Xiao thought for a while and looked at his contribution points. He was only 10 contribution points short of being promoted.
— Hand over two-thirds to the headquarters, and help exchange the remaining third for a certain item...
Hearing what Su Xiao wanted, Akira was stunned.
— Do you want this thing? Alright~, I'll report to the boss, but the headquarters doesn't have much stock of this thing, it's usually only used when creating kuinkyo.
Since Akira was paired up with Su Xiao, not only could she add a few achievements to her list, but she could also quickly develop her combat skills.
After hanging up the phone, Akira returned home an hour later.
— They only had one available, but I'm a little curious, Byakuya, why did you give it up? It's dangerous and very toxic, " Akira handed him a small metal briefcase. She was very careful, as if there was something very fragile inside.
— There are some things you don't want to know about, " Su Xiao picked up the briefcase and opened it.
— After saying that, Akira took two steps back.
After confirming that there was no problem with it, Su Xiao closed the briefcase and put it back in the inventory.
He didn't avoid Akira's gaze, but she wasn't surprised that the briefcase had suddenly disappeared, as if it was all a matter of course.
Paradise made its own edits to other worlds.
— Let's go to that bar again.
Akira Mado wanted to ask him a few questions, but she didn't say anything.
Just as Su Xiao had said, there were some things that it was better not to know about.
Su Xiao could use this thing to trade with ghouls, but it even sounded strange considering his past merits.
Twenty minutes later, the two of them pulled up to the Helter Skelter bar.».
Su Xiao also told Akira to wait in the car while he entered the bar.
— Welcome home... Itori was used to saying something like that, but when she saw Su Xiao, she stopped talking.
In Itori's eyes, Su Xiao was the epitome of evil. That night, the entire area was almost cleared of ghouls, and because of this, Itori became even more vigilant towards him.
— Don't be nervous, I want to make a deal with you this time, " taking out a briefcase, Su Xiao took out a test tube from it.
The test tube looked exquisite. It was ten centimeters long and as thick as a thumb. There was a light red translucent liquid inside it.
Seeing this test tube, Itori swallowed, and her eyes couldn't tear themselves away from it anymore.
Ghouls rarely got what Su Xiao held in his hands, but almost all ghouls were eager to get this thing.
