Chapter 72: Sunny - New Quest?!
At the sa ti, in a region filled with fog, Sunny held a lamp similar to the one Otrix had held, moving cautiously through the mist.
He frowned as he looked around and muttered, "Sure enough, this place is a forbidden zone. You need this lamp to explore it."
Even he found it hard to understand how he had gotten this lamp. While waiting for phase 3, he had suddenly run into a man wearing strange clothing.
That person looked at him, then said he was a Chosen One, and handed him this lamp.
Sunny had been a little surprised at the ti, but thinking about it... his na was Sunny. A na destined to beco the protagonist, destined to be noticed by the goddess of luck, so he wasn’t that surprised anymore.
This lamp could help him move through the fog, but he couldn’t move for long because it consud Spirit energy to stay lit.
Sunny ca in with the mindset of just testing what was in the fog. He didn’t have any specific goal.
Suddenly, he saw a shadowy figure standing far away, waving at him.
Sunny wanted to head over, but he frowned, thinking to himself, ’Sothing’s wrong. How can there be soone who can move in the fog? No! It has to be a trap!’
He knew very well that the only reason he had survived until now was entirely thanks to his luck, so he had to act extrely carefully and couldn’t be careless.
Sunny decided to go in the opposite direction from that shadowy figure and continued moving through the fog. However, no matter where he went, he kept looking toward the building in the distance to avoid getting lost.
Fortunately, even though the fog here was very thick, Sunny could still clearly see the silhouette of the building he was staying in.
"That is..." Sunny suddenly felt sothing was off. He lowered his head and saw a flower on the ground emitting a strange golden light, sowhat resembling a hydrangea.
At that mont, his intuition told him this was his Fortuitous Encounter. However, he still didn’t dare rush closer.
Sunny observed it for a long while, then slowly approached the flower.
One step...
Two steps...
Three steps...
When he stood beside the flower, he tentatively reached out and touched it.
The mont his finger touched the flower, an information panel suddenly appeared in front of him.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have found the Golden Hydrangea, triggering a hidden quest.]
[Quest: With enough sun, the flower will bloom.]
[Limit: Level 5 Survivors or below.]
[Number of Survivors participating: 5]
[Difficulty: Hell]
[Reward: ???]
[Description: After gathering 5 people, you can activate this quest.]
[Note: If you accept taking this flower, you must accept this quest. The ti limit to recruit Survivors is 10 days. However, after 10 days, if you still haven’t activated the quest, you will automatically enter this quest alone.]
Sunny felt happy when he saw the quest. However, when he saw the difficulty was [Hell], his face turned gloomy.
He knew that quest difficulties in this world were divided into: Normal, Hard, Challenge, Nightmare, and Hell.
Hell was the highest difficulty. Although Sunny didn’t know exactly how hard it was, he could tell that at this difficulty, the death rate would likely be extrely high.
Sunny thought for a mont and decided to accept the quest anyway, because he already had an idea of who he would invite to join it.
"Hope this is a Fortuitous Encounter... and not Hell."
....
In Room 2705, after Rover made Morie his woman, he carried her into the bedroom. He himself lay on the bed, surrounded by four beautiful won, as if he were lying in the middle of a garden of flowers.
At this mont, his gaze was fixed on the System notification panel.
[You slept with Monica successfully, obtained 615 Omni Points.]
[You slept with Morie successfully, obtained 720 Omni Points.]
[Total Omni Points currently: 2,800.]
Seeing this number, Rover decided to upgrade the ’Cultivation thod’ he possessed. That was what helped him raise his attribute points during the peace period.
"System, upgrade the cultivation thods."
[Ding! You have successfully paid 2,000 Omni Points. Remaining Omni Points: 800.]
[Strength Cultivation thod]
[Rank: D35]
[Level: 02]
[Cultivation Effect: You can cultivate for a maximum of 3 hours per day. Each hour of cultivation increases 3 Physique points.]
[ Upgrade Condition: 3,500 Omni Points]
[Spirit Cultivation thod]
[Rank: D35]
[Level: 02]
[Cultivation Effect: You can cultivate for a maximum of 3 hours per day. Each hour of cultivation increases 3 Spirit points]
[Next Upgrade Condition: 3,500 Omni Points]
When Rover saw the cultivation ti drop to only 4 hours, he was delighted. In truth, even though this cultivation would increase his attribute points, he didn’t want to spend too much ti on it.
That was why, when he saw the cultivation ti decrease, he felt a bit pleased.
’This way... every day I can gather 9 Physique points and 9 Spirit points. Compared to before, that’s 4 more points.’ he thought to himself.
After upgrading the two cultivation thods, Rover imdiately shared them with his four won. Then he went to the living room and began training.
...
[Notification: New facilities including the Flower Garden, Supermarket, and Canteen have been opened.]
Rover looked at the notification, then said to everyone, "Let’s go to the supermarket and the canteen first, then check the flower garden. What do you think?"
Nanoe, Selina, and Monica all said there was no problem. But Morie was different. She lowered her head, pressed her lips together, looked at her legs, and said softly, "I’ll stay ho and keep watch. You..."
"No!" Rover spoke up at once. "We’re going together. Besides, this world is also very magical. Maybe we can find a way to treat your legs."
Hearing that, Morie felt warmth in her heart. Even though she knew the chances were very slim and she didn’t care too much about it, hearing Rover’s words filled with concern still made Morie feel very happy.
"Let’s go. We should move quickly too, before everyone buys up all the best things. Nanoe, how much money do we have?"
Nanoe smiled and said, "After selling the low-grade and mid-grade room blueprints, I’m currently holding about 560 gold coins and 72,000 silver coins."
Rover nodded slightly. He also had about 140 gold coins and 33,000 silver coins.
Even though he felt the amount of money he had was a lot, he had a feeling that high-level Survivors were even richer than him.
’Maybe I should also look for side quests. That way I can have even more resources.’ he thought to himself.
Rover then led all four of them to move together. Naturally, pushing Morie’s wheelchair was Selina’s responsibility, since her Physique was far higher than everyone else’s.
As soon as they stepped out the door, Rover suddenly saw Leng Yan.
"Going together?" Leng Yan asked with a smile.
Chisaki stood behind her. Clear red handprints were visible on her neck, as if soone had choked her. But Rover’s group only glanced for a mont and didn’t ask anything.
After all, Chisaki had decided to beco Leng Yan’s [Tenant], so whatever consequences ca after, she had to bear them herself.
Everyone had to be responsible for their own choices, no matter what those choices led to in the end.
Even though Chisaki looked pitiful, Nanoe had no intention of interfering or advising anything at all. In fact, she didn’t even look at Chisaki even once.
Sensing everyone’s indifference, Chisaki could only lower her head and stay silent, her lips pressed tight, her hands clenched together, feeling a bit of regret inside.
But when she saw the number of won around Rover increase to four, she not only felt uncomfortable, she also felt jealous.
Uncomfortable because she hated people like Rover the most, collecting won everywhere, treating won as his toys.
Jealous because looking at those four won, every one of them wore a radiant smile like blooming flowers, their bodies clean and fragrant. Even the girl in the wheelchair had a happy expression.
Why? Why did everyone have such a good life, but she didn’t? Could it be that staying beside a man who treated won like rchandise could really make soone this happy?
