BXBX NOVEL Chapter 100 Secret revealed
She had set camp on the outskirts of the city, not bothering to rent a room in an inn or anything like that, as that would cost money.
And money was the one thing she didn\'t have at the moment. No, instead she had an abundance of beast cores hidden away in a secret stash.
In total, she had over 50 E+ rank beast cores, 120 E rank beast cores and countless other E-, F+ rank etc cores.
Overall, it was a good amount of cores she had gathered.
If she wanted to, she could absorb every one of them right now and immediately push herself to D- rank, but she decided against that.
The moment she laid her hands on the first Mutant class beast core she had ever found, and absorbed it, she had made the decision to never absorb an Ordinary class core again.
She had encountered 7 Mutant class beasts in total, but only managed to slay 6 of them. The 7th was the E+ rank beast she had encountered on her way over to Windrush city, and used the Void to escape from.
But she was still unsure now if that was even a Mutant class beast.
Of the 6 beasts she had killed, 4 of them were E- rank, with one E rank in the mix, and finally an E+ rank core too!
With these 6 cores, she managed to push herself to Mutant class, and just barely edging at 98% progress towards E+ rank.
Considering she only encountered a Mutant class beast on average of once every 2 weeks, she estimated that she\'d reach E+ rank within this timeframe, with just enough time to spare before she had to head back to the Federation and buy that god damn ticket!
Of course, ever since she reached E rank herself 2 months back, she knew that the prerequisite for exiting the Primordial Expanse the 2nd time onwards was to rank up once.
Compared to the requirements during everyone\'s first time in the mysterious realm, this was a lot more lax. They didn\'t have to go up a whole tier from F to E, they only had to go up one rank, which eased the strain and stress off a lot of most awakened\'s shoulders.
But even though every awakened who re-entered the Primordial Expanse would find this fact out at some point, the Federation decided to keep it as a secret from the general populace. If the weaker willed awakened learned that leaving the Primordial Expanse was easier than it seemed from the second time onwards, then they might do something stupid and enter.
Only to get themselves killed in the end.
The federation would much rather prefer they stay as E- rank awakened their whole lives and perform their jobs like the normal people do, than have them lose their lives in the Primordial Expanse because of some sudden burst of confidence.
If an awakened re-entered the Primordial Expanse completely out of their own free will and came back alive and stronger, then that proved that they weren\'t like those weak willed people and they had truly earned their spot as an elite in society.
[Would you like to leave the Primordial Expanse?]
Alex looked at the message from the system with a dumb look, completely perplexed at why this decided to show up now of all times.
\'No.\'
He thought, completely shutting down the prompt and leaving it dormant until he awakened it again, in which case he could change his answer and leave.
\'I see now!\'
It didn\'t take him long to put all the facts together and figure out the reason why, and he was absolutely thrilled when he did so.
\'Haha! I can actually leave this place whenever I want now! No longer do I have to worry about missing the 4 month deadline to leave this place!\'
Naturally, Alex was ecstatic when the realisation came upon him that he was no longer permanently trapped in this place.
Only 2 weeks had passed since he fell into this deep, dark hole and yet he had already fulfilled the criteria to leave again. This beat even his previous record of 1 month!
But considering he was in dire need of money and wasn\'t in any sort of desperate situation like that of the beast tide before, he had no intention of leaving this place until he reached the absolute limit of time he could spend here. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
\'It\'s time to test out how truly strong I am now!\'
With a surge of confidence flowing through him, Alex pummelled through the remainder of the ruins, no longer having to worry about any of the walls collapsing in on him and injuring him. When he had a clear enough view of the sky above, a rare sight in this huge jungle, he took a huge leap, 100 metres up and in the short moment where he no longer climbed in height, but also didn\'t fall, he observed the location surrounding himself and the ruins.
All around him, the area was filled with winding corridors, tall stone structures and directly below him, a towering pyramid dwarfed the rest of the structures. Before the ceiling caved in, it probably stood at over 200 metres in height, but most of its glory was nowhere to be found anymore after Alex\'s momentous battle against the Spider beast.
If he somehow found himself falling from a height like this just a day prior, he\'d be severely injured when he landed on the ground. But now, he\'d only get a few light scratches, maybe a bruise if he landed funny.
