Chapter 925: Checkpoint Turtle (2/2)
It wasn't related to the laws of space or anything like that. It was just him being able to perceive his three-dimensional surroundings with greater clarity, physically.
Krune smiled, now treading with a little confidence as he thought, 'Depending on its use, it would help me a lot in many situations in this layer.'
He began to proceed through the flight of stairs, watching his surroundings turn darker as he proceeded deeper. Only now did he notice everything around him resembled the shell of a turtle. It seemed that the flight of stairs was carved into the turtle beast's shell.
Soon, Krune reached the end of the flight of stairs, arriving at a dome as his body radiated the Neon Radiance, allowing him to perceive his surroundings better. There was a small platform spanning a meter in radius at the end of the flight of stairs. It was where he stood. Beyond that was just water.
This was the extent he had sensed before through his Sonic Radar. Suddenly, followed by a gurgle, the head of a beast peeked out of the water, staring straight at him.
It resembled an octopus in appearance but was massive in size. Just the portion of its head that peeked out spanned 4-5 meters in size. Krune became alert, holding his Whale Tooth Sword.
Though surprisingly, the octopus didn't attack him. Rather, a voice resounded through the dome, telling Krune, ”Welcome, the visitor named Krune, to the Checkpoint Turtle.”
Upon hearing it speak, Krune relaxed for an instant, feeling that it wasn't a foe he had to fight against. But he remained silent, staring at the octopus, waiting for it to speak further.
As if it realized his intention, the octopus exited the water until half of its head peeked out, speaking, ”The Checkpoint Turtle is a place that's similar to a shop in this layer. This is where you can spend the points you have accumulated to buy items of your desire.”
”This place is…?” Krune's eyes widened in surprise, having not expected for the Sub-Realm to have a place this direct in approach.
After all, in the fourth layer, nothing was announced. It was the same here as well. But suddenly, this shop popped out from out of nowhere. So, Krune didn't know what to think of it.
The octopus laughed, but in actuality, its laughter was a series of screeches that were grating to the ears. ”I understand what you're thinking. The fourth layer is the place where one can farm the maximum amount of Godly Points. It might be tough at the start, but once you understand the method, you can farm for Godly Points easily. As for this layer, it would be tough to come across creatures that will reward you Godly Points. Killing such creatures is not easy.”
It then wriggled one of its tentacles in the water, making some currents in it as he continued, ”As for this Checkpoint Turtle, it is a feature in this vast ocean layer. It will appear for the first time after a month of your arrival. And after this, it will appear on the same day every year. There are a lot of items you can purchase from here using your Godly Points. As for the list of items, they're available on your tablet.”
Krune immediately double-tapped his glabella, summoning his tablet as he held it in his hands, looking at the numerous words displayed in it. There were around 10 items in total that he could purchase. But upon seeing the price of each item, Krune frowned, feeling they were beyond expensive.
