Chapter 58: An answer (1/2)

[Earth, 23:59]

Venomous, the yummy, was scrolling through the auction website while resting her head on her free hand. Her face had been illuminated with various colors since she left the VR Capsule, thinking about red crystals.

There were many red crystals in The Four Leaf World, but there had been an uproar recently about particular red crystals.

Her finger stopped on the red crystal that Michu would recognize on the spot, ”It has to be it.”

Though Michu had passed the red crystal headfirst for Venomous' inspection, the crystal's description was blank. It just had a name, Red Crystal, and no information could be seen through the system.

Before her eyes, the crystal was called The Fire Dragon's Tears. The price next to it was shocking as just one red crystal could be sold for around one million gold coins.

The gold coin exchange rate had never fallen and it kept increasing! One million gold coins were around 10 000 real money, so Venomous would rather focus on something else. She didn't like to spend other's money and she didn't have much...

Why would Venomous be interested in those crystals?

”He has to be rich,” The Handsome dude was the person Yumi spoke about, ”So much money... Even those silver crystals... All for gold-diggers?” Although Michu didn't know the term, Venomous was different.

She called Feng's friend a gold-digger and researched him. There was no particular information about him, but some forum topics about casanova spreading his harem bullshit matched Feng's description.

Unfortunately, many women had fallen, or at least that was what the forum topic said.

Rich, Handsome, and probably smart as well. For level 40, Feng had too much information about The Impossible Quest. Just like Zerze, he had powerful backing or some friends from the top level!

Such a person was, at least, Michu's friend, but Venomous had to prepare for many more enemies, primarily the ones who were in The Impossible Quest for more than a month already!

”The quest...”

[The Impossible Quest, 6:30]

”The quest so far seems impossible for us,” Venomous said after a few days of their stay here. In the beginning, Venomous gathered Ice Resistance Pills and camping stuff which weren't expensive items.

The food was also cheap, but it was for them to not die out of hunger.

All of this was planned in consideration of their budget. Their bodies were safe from coldness, their stamina was also in check and food wasn't a problem! But that was just for some time.

Sandra pointed out, ”We are running out of Ice Resistance Pills. The food is no problem since we can hunt yetis and get their loot.”

”Correct,” Venomous nodded, ”We are also keeping a good job of protecting our camp stuff.” They have moved a few times and always choose a safe location that would give them enough time to react and keep their stuff intact.”

However, the ice resistance was a useful pill, even if it was of low quality, ”The Ice Tomb is nowhere to be found, but we found a spot where time flies slower. This man also left us with a good tip, so I will think about it.” It was bad to leave the yetis alone and they were also a good source of experience.

Venomous wouldn't give up on such free exp after gaining an advantage over the yetis. Her poison potions were no longer needed to hunt them and she could tear through them with her sword just fine.

Her good monke giggled, ”Don't think too much about it! Or your forehead will get slapped again! Hehe!” There was a time where Venomous thought too much about their plight and ended up getting slapped by the yeti's hand.

Michu reminded her about it, but his forehead got smacked as an answer, ”Back at you.”

”It hurt!” Michu's face said the exact opposite words as he laughed! Together with his party, they went for another yeti hunt.

[Everything is possible in another world, isn't it? That's how the game is advertised. That's why The Impossible Quest didn't sound as such to me. I wholeheartedly believed that I had enough will to go through it and reach the end... With the support of Hyunge Company, I knew I wouldn't fail.]

[That's true! The Hyunge Company owns several guilds and their network often supports such young prodigies like you! Could you elaborate on this partnership? Was it them who sent you for This Impossible Quest?]

[Their help and advice from their guilds who had taken this quest in their early levels had helped me appreciably. I can't speak about our partnership due to the contract, but for me, the game is my life, the second chance that I am willing to embrace everything I got. They are the reason I will reach the top ranking in a few months. Look forward to it.]

[Yes! We are all looking forward to the new star! Do you think you would reach it regardless of their help?]

[It depends.]

[It depends on what?]
