Chapter 353
"So monster cores are a form of currency here?" The general asked. To his question, Wei Jun shook his head and replied, "No, they're more like a resource that only those at the top can afford to have."
"So like diamonds?" The general clarified to which Wei Jun nodded and replied, "It would seem so but it doesn't seem like that's all there is to it. Just as a diamond is used to cut metals into different types, maybe the monster cores are a resource that can help with something like that as well. We'll have to dig into it though."
"Why?" A soldier interjected before he asked, "Why does it have to be our concern?"
"Everyone tries to steal a diamond and is even willing to kill for it. If what we have is similar to one, what do you think will happen?" Wei Jun asked, not least bit offended. They couldn't just flaunt their wealth out on the streets, especially to those at the top in case someone at the top held the power to take it from them.
