After that he was met face to face with Cha Yeon Woo, Doyle, and Kahn at the end point, opening the door.

[You have been given a 'Token']

While Salvador was running, he felt something in his hand, which he knew was the blue token

[There are 'Tokens' hidden all around Block E, that can be transferred or traded with other players. Please prove your worth by collecting 99 of them.]

"I'll just find those stupids, who tried to sneak attacked the MC." Salvador said, swallowing his token.

Turning around, he ran back towards Cha Yeon Woo group, which he found towards the swamp.

"Im hunting token hunters and I assume that your group will have the most hunters hunting you, so I'll protect you." Salvador said.

"What makes you trustworthy?, you walked over here and said that your hunting token hunters, who's to say that you aren't one?" Cha Yeon Woo said, a little surprised that Salvador is a skeleton.

"I swear on God, I'm ain't a token hunter, plus you're a new group coming into Block E and you're going to get tokens when you come in, right?." Salvador said, doing a cross with his fingers, across his chest.

"It's still a no." Cha Yeon Woo said

"AYE, I'm the one who's supposed to say if he could join or not." Kahn said

"So, can I join?" Salvador said

"No, we are already sharing all the loot with him." Khan said, point at Cha Yeon Woo

"And we don't even know how strong you are." Doyle said, this time

"Ight, I understand, see ya." Salvador said

Disappearing into the forest, he waited until Cha Yeon Woo group started moving and Salvador started following them, but at a distance as Cha Yeon Woo will be able to sense him.

He followed them until they set up camp, picking up tokens along the way, ending up with 8,as it was nighttime, he waited until Doyle and Kahn woke up from their nap, he then jumped into action.

He grab the nearest hunter and teared him apart, shocking and terrifying all of the hunters, Cha Yeon Woo and Kahn cut the bush the hunters were hiding in and wasn't that surprised Salvador was there.

As they felt him, hiding above the hunters in the trees like the vietnamese, but they were shocked at how strong Salvador is, seeing him grabbing another hunter and ripping him in half, getting covered even more in their blood.

"A-a-ah, RETREAT!" Random hunter uno said.

Cha Yeon Woo and Salvador hearing that, both ran over to the retreating hunters and killing them, taking their bodies back and counting how many people would after them.

See I told ya, but ya didn't want to listen." Salvador said.

"21 people in total, 81 tokens in total, looks like I got it easy huh?" Cha Yeon Woo said, ignoring Salvador.

"It's been a while since new players had entered Section E. That's probably what was leftover after selling most of them. More than a thousand people had been in this place, looking for Tokens and fighting for them. 81 is a small number compared to that." Doyle said.

"But that's only possible because they were scavengers. Most players probably have 10 Tokens or less." Doyle said.

"The rich get richer, the poor get poorer." Cha Yeon Woo said.

"That's correct." Doyle said.

"Anyway, collect as many Tokens as you can. They'll be used to gain Karma, as well as to purchase items from the mysterious merchant. The top-ranked players usually don't go straight to Section F even if they have the 99 Tokens required. They will try to hoard as many as they can." Doyle said.

Cha Yeon Woo nodded along.

"Oh, by the way, you can have all the Tokens." Doyle said.

"Hmm?" Cha Yeon Woo said.

"We didn't pay you front money when we made the deal, did we?, think of it as a down payment." Doyle said, smiling.

"What about Kahn?" Cha Yeon Woo said.

"He's really simple, you know. He'll do whatever I ask him to, so don't worry." Doyle said.

"You two also need Karma." Cha Yeon Woo said.

"Haha! Are you worried about us? We surely have enough for ourselves, so really, it's okay."Doyle said.

"Well then, thank you kindly." Cha Yeon Woo said.

During all that Salvador was sitting there was a shadow over his face, as they forget about him.

"What about me?, didn't I help too?" Salvador questioned.

"We can't really decide that, how about you ask him?." Kahn said.

Salvador looked at Cha Yeon Woo, with puppy skeleton eyes.

"Can I please get some?" Salvador said.

"No." Cha Yeon Woo said.

"GODDAMNIT!" Salvador yelled

Standing up, he found something to throw on the ground.

"I'll just find my own tokens but I'm staying here tonight." Salvador said
