Hikaru was not stupid enough to track down the whereabouts of the person who kidnapped Hana. He felt that the mysterious person was so strong that he could move freely in the fog.
Besides, Hikaru didn't think that Hana was someone who could be easily tricked into leaving her room. Because of this, he concluded that the mysterious person was most likely a player from another world.
Hikaru shook his head, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down. Although Hana is a card factory, she's not important enough that he has to risk saving her.
He was not a hero . He was just an ordinary man. He was afraid of death, and wanted to live happily. He had no need to express himself and be a hero.
If he was strong enough to save Hana, he would, but if Hana's kidnapper is too strong, he won't risk his life.
Suddenly, a message from the system appeared in front of him.
[Ding! A treasure chest has appeared in your territory. Please find it.]
"Treasure Chest?" Hikaru pondered, then he remembered that a level 2 territory would have a 10% chance of spawning a treasure chest daily. For the past five days, there had not been any treasure chests in the territory, causing him to forget about this feature.
Hikaru did not order anyone to search for the treasure chests because only a player could see them.
Hikaru used the skill "Teleport" to teleport to a place no one could see. He surveyed the entire territory and discovered a white chest next to the "Lake of Eternity".
Hikaru used his fastest speed to teleport to the chest and touch it. As soon as he touched the chest, it disappeared and reappeared in his inventory.
Right after that, he teleported back to the cave and looked at the information about the treasure chest he had just gotten.
…
Name:Treasure Chest
Type: Moonlight Rabbit Chest
Rarity: SSR
Description: When you open the chest, you'll receive a bag of Moonlight Rabbit monster cards and gear specifically for it. (A bag can randomly open 1 to 10 monster cards and the corresponding number of cards to equip that monster.)
…
"Moonlight Rabbit?" Hikaru saw this name and realized what race it was. In the memory he received, he obtained knowledge of this.
The Moonlight Rabbit was a legendary race. According to sages from ancient times, Hikaru knew that this race lived on the moon.
This race has the appearance of an average human but is slightly taller. The only difference is the rabbit ears on their heads and the rabbit tails that are as big as a cotton ball.
Although it is a rabbit, this race possesses very powerful close combat prowess and high physical strength.
Hikaru was overjoyed because he had finally found a monster capable of melee combat. In the past, Saraya and Vuni were both mage-class monsters. And Hikaru was also not a melee class player, so fighting against opponents like Sherwin was difficult.
To Hikaru's knowledge, although the Moonlight Rabbit race was not a tanker class, at least they had a high level of close combat ability. When fighting enemies, the Moonlight Rabbit can fight closely with the opponents , and Hikaru, Saraya, and Vuni can attack from a distance.
[Master, it's time to use the "12-Face Dice".]
Hikaru happily took out the "12-Face Dice" and followed Rika's instructions, and rolled the dice. Hikaru assumed that when he used the "12-Face Dice" he would have an army of 100 Moonlight Rabbit monsters.
[Ding! Congratulations on using "12-Face Dice" successfully. You have two choices: get 100 bags of Moonlight Rabbit-SSR cards or get a single bag of Bloodmoon Rabbit-UR cards.]
"Bloodmoon Rabbit?" Hikaru was a bit surprised because he didn't have any information about this race in his memory.
"Rika, is the Bloodmoon Rabbit the same race as the Moonlight Rabbit or is it another race?"
[I don't know. This is my first time hearing about this race.]
Hikaru frowned in confusion, but he was also a little excited. If Rika didn't know about this race, their existence was highly mysterious. Mysterious things are all things that carry enormous power. Hikaru continued to use the "12-Face Dice" to open the Bloodmoon Rabbit card .
[Ding! You successfully used the "12-Face Dice" to open the UR-Bloodmoon Rabbit monster card. You have two choices: 75 Bloodmoon Rabbit-UR cards or a Bloodmoon Rabbit Queen-UR+ card.]
"UR+. Is this the next level after UR?" Hikaru thought for a long time. He decided to ask Rika: "Should I choose option one or two?"
[You should choose the 2nd option. There is a vast difference between monsters of the same class. UR+ and UR[Although there is only a + sign, the difference is enormous.]
Hikaru nodded and followed Rika's instructions. Of course, he knew what Rika was talking about.
As with the SR class monsters, there are monsters with huge growth potential and others with weak potential . Even some SR class monsters possess the same strength as a few SSR class monsters.
"Choose 2."
[Ding! Successfully selected, congratulations on getting the Bloodmoon Rabbit Queen-UR+ class card.]
[Ding! Congratulations on receiving information about the Bloodmoon Rabbit race.
…
Very few people know about this race, but they do exist. According to ancient records (about 100,000 years ago), this race came from the land of chaos.
They possessed enormous physical strength, which rivaled the Titans, and the ability to create outstanding magic that no races could not be compared to.
Someone once heard a member of this race said that their homeland was destroyed, so they had to wander into space and find other planets to inhabit.
…
After reading the description of the Bloodmoon Rabbit race, Hikaru felt that this race was a bit strange.
First, the Bloodmoon Rabbit evolved from the Moonlight Rabbit, so are these two races related? Second, the Bloodmoon Rabbit race was so strong, but yet they were still destroyed. If he summons this race, will their enemies come to find him or not?
While thinking about this, Hikaru was suddenly startled. He felt that he had been overly cautious since being defeated by Sherwin. No, not careful, but cowardly.
[Master...]
Rika suddenly spoke up.
[You don't need to worry about this. Even if we are cowardly, we are still alive. It is for the best. There are many people in this world. Some are cowardly, brave, decisive, cunning... However, we all have only one purpose, which is to try to survive.]
[If you're brave but don't have the strength to be brave, that's stupidity. In this world, it's not the bravest person with the most achievements that is the winner , but the person who survives.]
Hikaru: "...
Although Rika's words seemed true, he felt her words were like arrows stabbing his self-esteem.
However, everything was really just like Rika had just said. In this world, even if you have the courage, so what? No one needs it. Surviving to the end is the most important thing.
Hikaru calmed down temporarily and successfully consoled himself. He did not rush to summon a new monster but teleported to the Necropolis. When Hikaru appeared, he saw Larry waiting for him.
Larry's expression was one of joy when he saw Hikaru. He knelt on one knee and said reverently: "Master, I have gathered many resources. There's something there you're sure to like."
Hikaru nodded and took the bag off Larry's back. Larry's bag was a giant brown backpack. Hikaru wondered how Larry managed to carry this bulky bag and he was not crushed.
But then, Larry asked again, in a very timid voice: "Master, your hand..."
Hikaru knew Larry was talking about his left hand, and Hikaru replied, "It's none of your business."
"Yes, yes…Sincere apologies, Master." Larry lowered his head humbly, like a real mouse.
Even though Hikaru knew that Larry meant well, he also didn't want to be looked down on by his subordinates. What Could he say that he couldn't beat an enemy's clone, and that he lost an arm?
That aside, what made Hikaru smile while looking at Larry's backpack was the number of resources he had collected. Hikaru immediately transferred the entire resource to his inventory.
A vast number of resources were transferred into the "Storage Chest". Currently, Hikaru has more than 700 million soul points. His other resources are also a lot.
Even though he owns over 700 million soul points, he doesn't think this is a lot. Leveling up Vuni from level 20 to level 30 will cost 100 million soul points. The remaining soul points, he hoped, would be enough to level up any new monsters.
However, what he took note of was a large number of Space Stones, which was more than 300, and a purple card.
"This is..."
Larry smiled smugly and replied before Hikaru spoke: "Master, I found a space stone mine."
"Space Stone Mine?"
"Right." But then his face became apprehensive: "However, I can't get many space stones because a void monster guards the mine."
"Void monster?" Hikaru frowned upon hearing this. In his memory, he also knew about this type of monster.
The Void Monster is a type of monster that spawns from the excess energy from a space stone. Similar to the Space Stone, other Elemental Stones also spawn monsters but are not as powerful as the Void Monsters.
Void monsters can teleport through space, become invisible, and hide in the void. Therefore, catching or destroying them is extremely difficult.
Hikaru thought for a moment and asked Larry: "Is that space stone mine big?"
Larry nodded and replied, "Very big. According to my estimates, it contains over 10,000 space stones.
