Chapter 241 Abyss Source Quality
Chapter 241 Abyss Source Quality
In the private room:
"Can I have your names?" After Marvin ushered them in, he asked.
"I\'m Maximus, and this is Skye," Maximus introduced.
Marvin typed out the two names, looking for their information in the Etherium Realm.
After reading their information and realizing they were newcomers, he came to an understanding.
"You want to set up a shop in Purgatory City, correct?"
"Yes."
"To set up in Purgatory City is not only expensive, but you also need the following: status, contribution, and crystal merits."
"Contribution? Status? Can you elaborate?" Maximus asks in puzzlement.
"In the Abyss Realm, aside from crystal merits as currency, we also use contribution points."
"Each mission you finish grants you contribution points, which can also enhance your status."
"Right now, you two are just challengers with zero contribution points."
"As for the status ranking, it\'s challenger, sentinel, guardian, vanquisher, and executioner."
"To get a plot of land in Purgatory City."
"You need at least vanquisher status and a billion contribution points."
"If you\'re ambitious, you can also set up your private outpost; you only need an executioner status to do it," Marvin explained.
"I see," Maximus nodded in understanding.
It seems he was still far from buying a plot of land in Purgatory City.
However, hearing that he could set up his outpost, a glint passed into his eyes.
In the future, his guild would also stay here.
Having a private outpost is quite convenient.
"What about the other layers?"
"Can you also set up a private outpost there?"
"By the way, how do you get to the other layers?"
Maximus suddenly remembered the danger of the Purgatory Layer.
There was no way his guild members would survive in this environment.
"Yes, to set up a private outpost in the central layer, you need a vanquisher status."
"As for the boundary layer, you only need sentinel status."
"As for getting to different layers, you need a corresponding status and contribution, and then you can apply for a transfer," Marvin explained.
"How about it? Do you have any needs?" Marvin asked.
"No, thank you," Maximus said wryly.
He can only hold off for now since his status is low, and he has no contribution points.
For this annual exchange event, he can only exchange fewer Abyss resources for some money.
Of course, he wouldn\'t be unscrupulous, just enough for his identity.
Maximus wanted to accumulate enough crystal merits to buy Abyss Source.
He only hoped it was not so rare.
...
After leaving the Etherium Abyss Council.
Maximus went back and forth to multiple stores and finally accumulated 100 trillion crystal merit.
Fortunately, there wasn\'t much surveillance in the Abyss Realm.
Just a Tier 9 disguise item is enough.
More importantly, a hundred trillion is a drop in the ocean for this kind of place.
As the only city in the Purgatory Layer, housing tens of thousands of outposts and with the lowest living individual strength of Tier 7.
The wealth hidden here can directly promote a few Tier 9 individuals.
It\'s so ridiculous that he couldn\'t help but be a little greedy.
However, walking around the city, he felt multiple apex sovereign auras converge around.
Just a slight disturbance and these atomic bombs would be activated, bombarding you to oblivion.
As for the tens of thousands of outposts?
Previously, he was only introduced to the three thousand outposts guarded by Tier 9 apex sovereigns.
However, based on Marvin\'s introduction.
There are tens of thousands of private outposts in the Purgatory Layer alone.
Top guilds and organizations operate these private outposts to mine inexhaustible resources.
Inexhaustible resources are resources generated by abyss energy without pause.
It can be mine and collected endlessly without diminishing.
It can be said that it was the cash cow of the top-tier guild and organizations in the abyss realm.
...
Etherium Gold Chamber of Commerce, Purgatory City Branch:
After earning 100 trillion crystal merit, Maximus removed his disguise and looked at the tallest shop in the city.
Maximus didn\'t dare to enter this building in disguise, like the Etherium Abyss Council headquarters.
It\'s one of the buildings with a Tier 9 apex sovereign resting inside.
Although his Tier 9 disguise is also Tier 9, it\'s nothing in front of the real deal.
Upon entering, he was greeted by a steward.
"Hello, what can I help you with?"
"I need some Abyss source, preferably Tier 6 and above," Maximus answered.
"Then please follow me. I\'ll call the manager in a while," the steward said.
For this kind of big customer, the steward didn\'t dare to take it.
After waiting for a while, the manager of the shop came in.
"Hello, I\'m Kijin. I heard you are buying Abyss source; can you specify?"
"Kijin? Do you know Fijin?" Maximus paused a little and asked.
"Oh, are you from End Town Outpost?"
"Yes," Maximus nodded.
"I see, Fijin is my brother. How about it, is our name easily recognizable?"
Maximus just smiled wryly at such a unique name.
"By the way, I\'m Maximus," he introduced.
"When you said \'specify\' earlier, did you mean there are many types of abyss sources?
Although Maximus already knew the division of Abyss Source, he pretended not to know.
Knowing that he was Fijin\'s brother, Kijin must know his identity as a newcomer.
"It seems that Lord Maximus is new here," Kijin nodded in understanding.
Many people from the Etherium Realm come to the Abyss Realm every day.
Although coming to the Purgatory Layer first is a bit rare, it\'s not that surprising.
Furthermore, three months ago, he had already come to know about Maximus from his brother.
Maximus\' identity was already imprinted on his mind.
This is a wealthy customer filled with treasures!
Thus, seeing Maximus didn\'t understand anything about Abyss Source, he explained patiently.
"Abyss source is divided by quality, from normal, elite, and lord-level quality."
"Starting from the 7th tier, this quality ranking begins to apply."
"As for lower tiers, it\'s only normal quality," Dijin explained.
"I see," Maximus nodded in understanding.
Basically, the quality of the abyss source depends on the quality of the abyss monster that it produces.
Maximus didn\'t know if there were higher-quality Abyss sources here.
However, According to the book he read about Abyss sources.
Abyss monsters are ranked from cannon fodder, which is directly produced by Abyss energy.
It usually ranges from Tier 1 to Tier 3.
Second, there are normal Abyss monsters.
They are produced by Abyss source and usually range from Tier 4 to Tier 6.
Third, there are elite Abyss monsters produced by elite quality Tier 7 Abyss sources.
Forth, is the lord-level Abyss monster.
Although an Abyss source can also produce it, it usually is only one per Abyss source.
It basically occupies all the energy of the Abyss source to produce it.
However, such a lord-level Abyss monster is basically invincible in its tier.
It needs multiple people ahead of its tier to subdue it.
Then Fifth, according to the book he read.
It is the monarch-level Abyss monster—the destroyer of the world, the terminator of dimensions.
The weakest monarch-level Abyss monster has the strength of an invincible tier 9 being.
What weirded out Maximus was that the fragment of Abyss heading to their Realm should be capable of producing monarch-level Abyss monsters.
Yet, until now, after countless epochs, there has still been no result.
Otherwise, with it, the Etherium realm would probably have been destroyed countless epochs ago.
"How is it? Do you want to buy the Abyss source?" Dijin reminded, seeing Maximus in a daze.
"Yes, give me everything you\'ve got."
"Great! We have 70 Tier 6 Abyss sources."
"That would be 700 billion crystal merits!"
"You can pay with rare resources if you want," Dijin excitedly offered.
"Oh right," Maximus just rolled his eyes.
Knowing that he was Fijin\'s brother, Maximus already concluded that Dijin knew how he would pay.
"Here, you can count it slowly." Maximus took the resources one by one.
Dijin was also patient and meticulously appraised and counted all the rare resources on the table.
Soon, after counting 700 billion worth of resources, Dijin still looked a little unsatisfied.
"By the way, what about Tier 7 Abyss sources?" Maximus asked, seeing that Dijin looked unsatisfied.
"This-" Dijin was suddenly embarrassed.
"Truthfully, we don\'t sell Tier 7 Abyss sources."
"They were internally collected by the guild or sold in the auction."
"Then why did you bother asking me to specify what I wanted?" Maximus said a little angrily.
What the heck?
Explaining to him various delicacies, yet not being able to sell them?
He was ready to take out his pants, yet you tell me you\'re a man?!
"What auction are you talking about?" Maximus asked with a frown
"This- Every night during the Annual Exchange event, the Etherium Abyss Council will host an auction.."
"Our guild and other top organizations should auction many high-quality resources, including high-tier Abyss sources," Dijin explained apologetically.
"I see." Maximus also calmed down.
He knew the rareness of high-tier Abyss sources.
That\'s why earlier, he was somewhat happy that Dijin dared to explain the quality of the Abyss source.
Who knew that he was merely tempting him?
