Chapter 275: Spying On Shika
[Ding!]
[Quest Complete]
[Rewarded: Skill of Night Mask]
Shika looked at the reward that she obtained, sighing in relief. Her Quest had only been to prevent Ianon and Dwun from fighting. So, she had achieved that beforehand. But, the Night Ranger System had generated her a second Quest.
And, that was to fight against Dwun for a total of three days. She had finally managed to complete it and had been awarded the Skill of Night Mask and an increase to her attributes, especially her Vital Energy. Her combusted attributes were also replenished, causing her to heave a sigh in relief.
She felt her body becoming stronger, smiling as a result, "Even though I wasted a lot of resources, I've beco stronger. I can simply gather more resources after this."
She had the dinsional storage to rely upon, having stored a lot of her necessities there. She then conversed with her System a little before looking around from atop an apartnt.
She was curious about this place because she sensed a lot of people living here, and they were alive and well-fed even.
As it was close to the place she battled, she arrived here, wondering just what was up with the place.
Curiosity had to be resolved. After all, when she had done the sa before, even though she faced so risks, in the end, she reaped significant benefits from the exchange.
'My mutated beasts all died. So, I'll have to find new ones.' She sighed. Even though she had so more orbs in her dinsional storage, they weren't her priority for use. She didn't like the abilities they provided.
'But, if this place has sothing surprising…' She thought, smiling. It was the only way she could calm herself for losing track of the Spydragons.
Even though she had branded her Stigma on them, allowing her to track their locations from anywhere, after they moved far away from her, they vanished mysteriously, surprising her.
Left with no other choice, she looked around for so resources when she noticed an apartnt with a lot of people, more than what there was in an entire area.
The apartnt complex had eight apartnt buildings. And, all of them were full of people, as if everyone that had lived there managed to survive. This shouldn't have been possible, given the threat of the Grassn, ants, and mosquitoes.
It was not to ntion the scarcity of food and other resources.
Thanks to the cover of the night, Shika managed to reach the roof of one of the buildings, gazing around from there, surprised when she noticed quite the number of people being posted in the apartnt's clubhouse.
The clubhouse consisted of an open hall for parties, an attached gym, an indoor ga area, a badminton court, and a swimming pool at the bottom-most floor. And, judging by the stream of workers heading to and fro from the bottom-most floor, Shika determined that the secret of this place lay there.
'Hmm, what exactly is her dinsional storage?' Hiding within her space all along was Compass Carburettor, listening to the conversation between her and the Night Ranger System.
Moreover, when saw the stats window displayed before her, thanks to being connected to all her senses, Compass Carburettor too observed her stats. This way, he obtained an accurate judgent of her abilities.
But, it also made him wonder about sothing.
Her dinsional storage. It wasn't displayed on her stats, confusing him. And, since Shika didn't express any oddity in her emotions, it ant that sothing was amiss here.
Did she sohow possess such an ability on her own? Or was it related to sothing else? Anyway, he was confused about it.
Moreover, he didn't have a chance to leave her. Just appearing beside her abruptly would just startle her. Moreover, he was behaving as if Compass Carburettor had been killed by the Systems already.
So, he didn't wish for them to be alerted by his survival. That would make them realise that he had the ans to cheat death.
He didn't wish for his cards to be revealed this early into the ga, especially since he had only killed two Systems in this world.
His plan with Shika and Dwun was simple. Since Dwun loved to fight, he had made arrangents in such a way that Dwun would beco a Grassn.
He wasn't assured if it would work. But, he had already laid down the foundation for that: a secluded patch of grass, young in its growth, small in size, and Dwun whose space was destroyed.
Moreover, System Hosts typically created miracles like they were part of a Friday sale. So, he had hoped for Dwun to do the sa too. And as he had expected, Dwun had taken the chance to beco a Grassn.
After Shika left the place, Dwun climbed out of the vertical tunnel too, accompanying the bunch of Grassn under his control as he headed out in search of strong foes to battle.
Now, he had beco a proper variable that might ss up the plans of the Systems at any ti. Thanks to becoming a Grassn, he had endless vitality and regeneration, the perfect fit for a battle addict like him.
So, it could be said for sure that the mont he found a System Host, he would fight them until there ended up a victor.
As for Shika, he was only using her as a mobile transport now, directing her actions from ti to ti using his Spydragons.
Thanks to their mysterious nature, she followed after them whenever they appeared.
'Unfortunately, I'm only able to hear Shika's surface thoughts and her conversation with her System. If only I could hear the Night Ranger System's conversation in the Astral Network.' He sighed in pity.
But, he was still glad to have obtained such impressive power, allowing him to spy upon the details shared between a System and its Host.
Moreover, as he was connected to all her senses, he was able to feel her emotions, the change in her hormones whenever sothing happened, etc.
Everything allowed him to understand her character to a greater extent, making him appreciate Dita's power more and more.
'It was worth it to sacrifice a box full of Spydragons to get this ability… Now that I reached Transcendence, I don't have use for those inferior Spydragons anyway.'
