Super Hint System: Everyone is a Cultivator - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Two Options

In the base, Garen and the others climbed up and down the mountain of materials, scouring for the mission materials they needed. From time to time, they would ask Vivian if the materials they found were the ones on the list.

In the end, with Vivian’s help, everyone chose their materials and all got what they needed.

“Eight. I’ve already completed eight. I can cultivate when I go back!”

“I’ve also completed it! I’ve also completed it!”

Colin and the others huddled together in celebration.

Only Garen looked at the list in his hand and muttered to himself with a flushed face, “Impossible… Impossible…. Why have I only completed seven missions?”

Adams walked forward and looked at the mission list in Garen’s hand. There were indeed some materials on there that he had never seen before.

Adams patted Garen on the shoulder, and said, “You sure are unlucky. I’ve never seen these materials before. Go and ask Vivian which materials are easier to find. I’ll take you to find them!”

“Hah… Okay!” Garen hurriedly nodded and said. Then, he ran over to Vivian, and pleaded with her with the list in hand.

After looking through the list, Vivian pondered for a moment while stroking her chin. She then said, “Among the three materials that you’re missing, there seems to be an ore that I’ve seen before. It’s on the mountain that we had teleported to when we first got here!”

“Really?” Garen asked excitedly.

Seeing Vivian nod affirmatively, Garen turned to Adams with anticipation in his eyes.

Adams turned around and said, “Since it’s on the way, let’s pack up and prepare to head back!”

“Okay!”

Everyone nodded and agreed in unison before turning to look at the mountain of materials that was higher than the second floor. They couldn’t help but look troubled.

“Big brother, there are so many materials. Even the door is blocked. How are we going to get out?”

“That’s right, Big Brother! Quickly put away these materials!” Everyone said helplessly.

Adams raised his hand and flashed the quantum ring on his hand. A beam of light shot out, but only put away half of the materials there. The remaining half of the materials still blocked the gate of the base.

“Big Brother, there’s still half of it left. We still can’t get out!” Everyone said in confusion.

Sitting at the conference table, Adams waved his hand at everyone with a smile and said, “You can split the rest evenly! These materials are also quite valuable, enough to cover your living expenses for a while. Also, if you want to be a blacksmith or an enchanter, some of the materials are also useful. When you really embark on the path of a cultivator, you will know how important resources and money are. These things are essential to help you become successful. They are also the trump cards that will allow you to surpass others in terms of cultivation speed!”

Garen and the others looked at each other. They were so excited that they wanted to kneel before Adams.

Whether it was the fruits that were distributed or the mountain of materials in front of them, they were all extremely valuable items. If Adams kept them for his own use, it would be of great benefit to him, but he was willing to share them with his brothers. This was already an enormous favor!

“Big Brother, are you for real?” Garen asked in disbelief.

Adams nodded and said with a smile, “Of course! But take these materials and focus on your cultivation. Only by working hard will you be worthy of the resources I have given you!”

“Yes! We will not let Big Brother down!” Everyone excitedly promised before turning around to gather the materials they needed.

After a while, all of them turned around awkwardly and looked at Adams with troubled expressions on their faces.

“What now?” Adams asked.

“Our rings are full, but we’ve only put away a tenth of the materials!” Garen said with a troubled expression.

A huge mountain of treasure was right in front of them, yet they could only look at it and not take it away. Anyone would go crazy at that.

Adams sighed. Then, he waved his hand and a large pile of rings appeared at their feet. These were the ordinary quantum rings that he had looted from the Wanderers.

Garen and the others gaped when they saw the quantum rings scattered all over the ground.

Garen and the others could understand no matter how many materials Adams collected. After all, lucky people were the envy of others.

However, quantum rings had to be forged by human craftsmen. Every ordinary person could only receive one ring after their coming-of-age ceremony!

The hundreds of rings on the ground were equivalent to taking them from hundreds of humans. The difficulty of collecting all these was as difficult as climbing up to the sky!

Adams, on the other hand, was as relaxed as ever. Without any tinge of heartache, he said, “You can distribute these rings among yourselves. I’ll teach you one more thing. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. You have to learn to be crafty. Don’t let anyone notice that you have so many treasures on you, especially before you have abilities. Otherwise, you will be in danger!”

Bookworm Colin and Bob, who liked to forge items, were simple-minded people and did not understand what Adams meant.

The straightforward Andre and Jose were martial artists, so they also couldn’t understand Adams’ reminder.

Only Garen and Angus were quick-witted enough, and immediately understood Adams’ good intentions. They nodded and said, “What Big Brother means is that we are too weak right now. If we reveal our treasures, we will definitely be killed!

“Therefore, we have to disguise ourselves if we sell materials in the future. Each time, we should only take out at most one or two items and pretend that we got them by accident during our coming-of-age ceremony, so as to avoid suspicion!”

Adams snapped his fingers and praised, “You’re right! This is the most basic way of protecting yourself. In this chaotic world, you have to be wary of the evil in people’s hearts. You absolutely can’t be naive!

“In addition, I’ve already thought of two options. The first is to become a Wanderer so as to have a reasonable identity for all of you to sell more resources in the future. The second is to become a secret agent for the military and seek a formidable protective umbrella. Think carefully, all of you. There’s no rush to make a decision on this matter!”

Garen and the others nodded in agreement. They then distributed the quantum rings on the ground and split all the materials in the base.

Just as everyone was about to leave, Vivian walked to Adams with a solemn expression and said, “Can we have a chat alone? Just you and me?”

Garen and the others turned to look at them with wicked smiles on their faces.

Scratching his head in embarrassment, Adams gestured for Vivian to head out and said, “Let’s talk as we walk!”

Vivian nodded lightly and walked out of the base with Adams. Garen and the others tactfully waited for a while before leaving the base and followed them from afar.
