BXBX NOVEL Chapter 40 Home, Selling The Loot
Not leaving any material left unabsorbed, Erian absorbed even the corpses of the entire group. While they had expended a bit of their energy to defend against him, the remaining energy all together reached a thousand plus points, he wasn't going to let it to to waste.
After which, he sent their bodies to the transmuted to be converted into something useful.
[+0.1, +0.1, +0.1, +0.1, +0.2 ...]
The bodies of the Toxic Iron-back Tiger also didn't bring much gain to Erian and was only transformed to increase his vitality.

Erian has been working tirelessly for more 40 days non stop and was only able to gather 200,000 nuclear energy point. But in just a single day of killing, stealing and absorbing, he had gathered the exact same amount.
'It seems although hardwork pays, Killing and stealing pays even more.' Erian pondered upon this theory. His choice would determine his future path therefore he needed to determine which path he would need to follow.
Erian chuckled slightly and shook his head. There was no need to think further, this world isn't like earth where everything was slightly peaceful. There was chaos in this world and showing a bit of negligence or too much mercy will get you killed.
He had died in his first world without being fullfied or had the confidence to say he had achieved something on earth he could actually be proud of. Now, given another chance, in another world, he didn't want to perish again so uselessly in this world. Not until he had reached the pinnacle of this world. With the aid of his chip, there was a chance it was possible.
Getting rid of the depressing thought, Erian directly upgraded his Nuclear pulse talent.

There was only twenty days left to the entrance examination. The Aqua-Fiend Fluid Extract had all being exhausted. Although as a level six that could kill a level nine, his safety was still not in place. The university he had chosen only gave a 20 percent chance of survival. Which meant that even a level nine expert would still die if he wasn't careful within the university therefrom, Erian wanted to do everything within his power to strengthen himself as much as possible.
His technique was a legendary tier technique, different from the others as it contained 12 levels in it. Erian had just reached halfway in the technique and he was this strong, he couldn't help but imagine just how strong he would become once he reached level 12.
After arranging most the serums, pelt and herbs in the sack, Erian started heading back to the village.
* * *
Half a day later, the metal-glass door to Metasale shop opened and a tired Erian came alked into the shop, slamming a bag of sack at the counter with a heavy thud.
Proudly, he sat majestically on a seat and said with indifference. "Old Jon, I wish to sell somethings, do you dare to buy!?"
The old man's moving hands paused, his eyes turned towards Erian. Suddenly a radiance flashed in his eyes as he glanced up and down at Erian body.
After a while, the old man's eyes revealed a bit of surprise before it turned indifferent. Naturally Erian wasn't able to notice it.
Sorting through the pile of plants, gene core, serums, beast pelt and items. The old man didn't show the slightest bit of surprise at the items nor was there any pause in his voice when he said. "How deep did you go to encounter people from the town within the Forbidden Forest?"
Erisn was instantly shocked, but after a while of thinking about it, he wasn't really surprised that the old man was able to figure it out. There were at least five prototype nuclear weapons in the sack which could be how the old man had seen through it.
Erian immediately sneered. "Since when do you, old man make small talks?"
"Only when it's worth my time. Answer my question." The old man indifferently replied and pressed on.
'So I didn't deserve your reply previously?' Grumbling slightly, Erian still answered truthfully. "About 70 kilometers within the forest."
The old man frowned and he bowed his head, muttering to himself before he then replied. "Don't head into the Forbidden Forest for now least you want to get killed."
Erian:a expression changed drastically and he flashed a suspicious look at the old man. "Is something wrong?"
"If five 'Important class student' of your school goes missing, what happens?"
Erisn frowned before his eyes revealed understanding. "The principal would be involved. Especially when they venture into the Hundred beasts Forbidden Forest."
"500,000 Bronx."
Erian's eyes widened when he heard this and he inhaled a deep breath out of shock. "I am rich!" Never in his life did he think he would possess such amount of money. But then his face darkened. It was 200,000 less than what he calculated! "Old man! There is at least five low-quality prototype weapons there that's worth at least a hundred-thousand Bronx each and gene cores that worth at least 50,000 each. Are you trying to cheat me?"
"500,000 Bronx." The old man's indifference had once again appeared on his face and he began tinkling with the device in his hands.
Erian's teeth instantly grinded together as he stared fiercely at the old man as though wanting to beat him up. But Erian didn't dare to. This old man that seem like a normal person to him might actually be a hidden expert. He might be the one beaten ruthlessly instead.
"Hmph!" Erian snorted as he sat back down. "Do you have the Aqua-Fiend Fluid Extract or something stronger?"
The old man stored the pile of materials behind the counter and then brought out a serum. "Steroid 5k."
Erian glanced at the old man with a raised eyebrow. "I know I seem weak to you but steroids is for weak normal humans to increase their strength by a bit. It won't have any effect on me."
