Han Gui picked up the crystal core from Aria's palm and asked, "How many monsters have you killed?"
Aria felt a little depressed and disappointed when Han Gui took the crystal from her. She said, "Nearly 200. 195 or 196... I forgot."
The crystal core that was emitting a faint red light was like a beautiful spotless gem. It was the result of the crystallization of power.
He raised his hand and pinched Aria's chin. As Aria looked at him vigilantly, Han Gui threw the crystal core into her mouth.
"I don't want what you worked hard to get. I will only consider what you truly want to offer me."
Before she could say anything, the crystal core turned into energy and surged into her body. At the same time, a notification popped up in her mind.
[Please choose the attribute that you want to strengthen.]
"Agility."
[Ding! Your Agility has increased by 0.1. Currently, it's 1.7.]
Her body felt lighter. Aria was a little happy. Her hard work had not been in vain.
When she came back to her senses and looked at Han Gui, Aria found that this man was not as annoying as she had imagined.
Han Gui did not know what Aria was thinking. As he looked back towards the city, he noticed that the light there seemed to have dimmed a little. As far as his eyes could see, there were even some people who were starting to retreat from the deeper areas.
"We should go back."
Having just tasted the benefits of increasing her strength, Aria frowned and said in a low voice, "Don't worry about my injuries. I can still fight."
Aria thought that he was concerned about her condition. Her heart, which had been trained to be as hard as steel, seemed to be touched. She was gradually getting convinced that Han Gui was not as bad as he seemed.
"What does it have to do with your injury? What are you daydreaming about? If you don't want to leave now, then be prepared to die here.
"Oh right, I forgot to tell you. I left out some things when I told you about this area on the streets earlier. When the light in the city is dim, it's the time when the darkness of the outside world comes and there may be a great terror."
Aria was stunned as Han Gui walked past her.
'Ugh! He wasn't concerned about me! He wasn't concerned at all! This man is an absolute beast!'
She was a fool to have thought that he had cared the slightest bit about her.
Seeing that Han Gui and Xinyue had already walked away at a speed that she could not understand, Aria's eyelids twitched. What kind of freaking speed did these two have? She already had 1.7 points for Agility, which was considered so high that she could eat dust. How many points did these two have then?
The darkness came like the mouth of an abyss swallowing up the Earth. The ominous aura grew thicker and her body felt heavier. It was not easy for her to finally step into the city. Aria looked back and felt a sense of terror.
The world outside had completely turned into darkness. The screams and wails made people shudder. There were also the sounds of chewing, bones breaking, and a loud roar that sounded as if some evil creature was wandering around.
Aria did not dare to imagine what would have happened to her in the darkness if she had been one step later.
"Don't look back. We're going home together. Aria, come with us."
Now that Aria had become his slave, it was more convenient for the three of them to live together. Their apartment had three bedrooms after all.
Aria was already expecting this, so she didn't say anything. When she returned to Han Gui and Xinyue's place, she suddenly felt sour.
"This is where you live? Three bedrooms and one living room? With a kitchen and a bathroom?"
The place she was assigned was just a small studio apartment with a tiny bathroom and kitchen squeezed into each other.
Their bathroom was even bigger than her entire place!
"Your place is different from ours? Well, I guess it's because there are two of us, so it's normal for it to be bigger, right?"
Han Gui had never seen her place before, so he didn't dare to comment casually.
She gestured with her hands and pointed at the bathroom. With a dark face, she said, "My place is only this big."
Only then did Han Gui realize how big the difference was.
Han Gui's gaze landed upon the kitchen and he just realized that he hadn't eaten the entire day. However, he didn't feel hungry. Could it be that his attributes had increased and his hunger had been alleviated?
"Do you know how to cook? If you do, please go cook. Xinyue and I have to digest our crystal cores."
Aria knew how to cook. She didn't say anything else and just walked into the kitchen.
Han Gui pulled Xinyue to the sofa and they took two crystal cores each. A notification came and Han Gui added the attributes of the two crystal cores to his strength.
[Ding! You have increased Strength by 0.2 points. Your current Strength is 7 points.]
His strength continued to surge in his body until it finally calmed down. Only then did Han Gui let out a sigh of relief.
At the same time, Xinyue also opened her eyes which flashed purple.
"Xinyue, what did you add to?"
"I... added to Spirit. Now it's 6.6 points. It seems that the succubus mainly focuses on Spirit."
He nodded. Succubus used Spirit to control others or create illusions to make enemies kill each other. The other attributes such as Strength, Constitution, and Agility did not seem to be her strong points.
After dinner, Han Gui sat on the sofa with Xinyue and Aria on either side of him.
"Let me share the information I heard today. First of all, there are five days until the next Infinite Game starts. Compared to other players, we have a great advantage
"I learned today that not everyone in the F Class area is human. Although they are all human-sized, they are not from Earth.
"Also, Infinite Games are selected and designed based on genres of movies, games, and anime from Earth.
"Do you get me?"
Even if he didn't tell them now, Xinyue and Aria would find out soon enough. But there was nothing wrong in telling them in advance.
Xinyue and Aria were surprised. If Han Gui's information was correct, then they had a huge advantage over others.
Han Gui knocked on the coffee table to bring them back to reality before continuing.
"Tomorrow, we will continue to go to the outer area to kill monsters and increase our strength. I've thought about it before. The reason the neutral area is so peaceful must be because of the allowances in the outer world.
"What we need to do is to farm in peace. If we meet someone who goes against us, we will kill them. We won't take the initiative to cause trouble, but we will oblige those who want to seek death. Do you get me?"
