Chapter 49: 50.000 Botol Exp
Chapter 49: 50.000 Botol Exp
Lein and Nita returned to the Divine Sky Realm as usual.
When they emerged from the portal, a familiar sight greeted them: a ten-story building, a highway filled with pollution-free vehicles, and crowded sidewalks with pedestrians.
The City of Destruction, World Market Alliance Island.
The City of Destruction belonged to Old Man Haikal. It was located to the south of Lein's City of Life and not far from Laras' City of Light.
"Old Man Haikal's City of Destruction almost matches your city, brother. Look at that building, it's so aesthetic," Nita said, admiring the buildings in the City of Destruction.
"Yes, Old Man Haikal is a core member. So it won't be much different from the City of Life," Lein explained.
Lein was not stingy with the ten core members of the Alliance. Each core member greatly contributed to the Alliance's development and held important roles.
Take Hana, for example, who was responsible for establishing the Alliance's branch store network in the Divine Sky Realm.
Then there were Old Man Haikal and Laras, tasked with expansion and exploration of uncharted territories.
Next was Dion, who served as the head of the military across all the alliance islands.
"Welcome, sir."
At this moment, two guards approached Lein and Nita. They were overseers responsible for monitoring the portal environment. As usual, Lein provided them with an overview of the situation in Realm Xroxx55.
"Give this document to Chief Efan," Lein instructed them.
"Yes, sir."
The two overseers carefully stored the document and returned to their post to switch shifts with others.
Lein and Nita didn't stay idle; they boarded a bus, a common means of transportation these days. Human development was indeed rapid. As long as raw materials were sufficient, Earth's situation would soon be replicated.
There were actually portals at several points on Lein's island, but entering them required energy crystals. Thus, only those with some wealth could enjoy them.
"Brother, it feels great to be a ruler," Nita said from beside him.
"Hahaha, silly girl. Who said being a ruler isn't enjoyable?" Lein replied.
"What if we just stay on the island and live peacefully? I don't want to meet those powerful people anymore."
Nita felt a bit overwhelmed this time; they had encountered several strong individuals, and they could hardly do anything.
Lein understood Nita's anxiety. After all, if they continued living like this every day, they could live comfortably and peacefully.
Although it would take time and a long process, they could stand firm among those powerful races.
"Stop worrying about that. As long as we aren't reckless, we'll be safe," Lein said confidently.
"What? Reckless? I forgot who was reckless before," Nita retorted with a teasing expression. Her brother advised against being reckless, but it was he who had been reckless.
"Hehe... It won't happen again," Lein could only smile sheepishly at his sister's teasing.
On their way home, Lein and Nita observed the activities of people living on Lein's island.
Some people wore neat suits with standard black bags in their right hands. Lein could guess that these were office workers.
Office workers usually had slightly weaker strength, but they still activated the system. The salary system also used energy crystals.
Paper currency was beginning to flourish as a means of conducting small transactions for items like vegetables, rice, meat, etc.
The entertainment industry was not left behind either, with some already establishing TV stations and websites for watching entertainment content.
The government system also continued to function. Currently, Lein's city was divided into four different districts. This change occurred due to the rapid development of Lein's island, which now covered 3,000,000 square kilometers, almost twice the size of Indonesia on Earth.
...
During their journey, Lein and Nita stopped to explore several places, such as entertainment venues, dining spots, and other amusement parks.
After getting tired, they used the portal to reach the City of Life before nightfall.
Upon arriving at the city lord's hall, it was already dark. The night sky was beautifully decorated with colorful lights.
Lein and Nita were currently enjoying the night sky while grilling some beef and rabbit meat.
"Brother, how many Exp bottles have you duplicated?" Nita asked while eating a steak skewer.
"Well... During the journey, I've duplicated 50,000 Tier 5 Exp bottles," Lein said while taking out a bottle from the silver space ring.
(Tier 5 Exp Bottle)
- Exp +100,000
Lein was very excited inside. Fifty thousand Tier 5 Exp bottles were worth 10 high crystals. If he sold all 50,000 bottles, he would earn 500,000 energy crystals.
"I'm rich... Hhhh," Lein said to himself.
"Let's use them, brother. Is it enough to level up to the next threshold?" Nita asked curiously. Their level was still at 21.
"Well... I don't know either... Let's try using 100 bottles."
Lein looked at the Exp bottles in his hand and confirmed their use.
[Consume (Tier 5 Exp Bottles), 100, confirm?]
"Yes."
[Consumed Tier 5 Exp Bottles, gained +100,000 exp]
[Consumed Tier 5 Exp Bottles, gained +100,000 exp]
...
A hundred exp notifications sounded, and Lein's exp increased by about 0.3%.
"What the...? 10,000,000 exp only increased by 0.3%?" Lein cursed in his heart. He couldn't imagine how difficult it would be to level up without a cheat-like talent.
This time, Lein used 1,000 bottles at once.
[Consumed Tier 5 Exp Bottles, gained +100,000 exp]
[Consumed Tier 5 Exp Bottles, gained +100,000 exp]
...
This time, Lein saw his level progress; finally, it increased to level 22.
[Congratulations, Ruler level increased. Level 22, Attribute points +250]
"Finally..."
Lein was very excited. With 1,000 Exp bottles, his level increased by more than one.
If he used 9,000 more bottles, he could reach level 30.
[Consume (Tier 5 Exp Bottles), 9,000, confirm?]
"Yes."
Immediately, endless notifications flooded Lein's status panel. He closed the panel for a while and then handed Nita 10,000 bottles as well.
"Nita, you use them too," Lein said to Nita.
"Okay, brother."
Nita accepted all the Exp bottles and used them all at once.
Nita experienced the same thing as Lein. Endless notifications flooded her status panel.
They both temporarily closed the system panel and enjoyed their snacks leisurely.
"Ah... It's so refreshing."
"The stars are so beautiful."
Occasionally, Nita would murmur softly while sitting on her lounge chair, a cotton blanket covering her legs.
