Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 121 Showdown (2)

Magic core was something that only rank 1 magic beast had and the only person who could kill rank 1 magic beast so far was Samuel. This was something almost everyone knew.

But Riya knew that because she used talisman to increased her speed and also made Joshua dropped that gun, her strength was somewhat exposed. While it would not expose her completely, it would be better to show some appropriate strength.

Otherwise, she could only be an ordinary person all the time.

And without having any access to the first hand information, she wouldn't be able to know anything if they had found something in that crack. So Riya decided to show an appropriate amount of strength on the surface just enough for her to know some information but not to put her at the forefront.

She wanted to find the next special magic core and possibly explore the crack once again.

This time, not alone, though.

"Yes, this is a magic core," Riya admitted.

"How did you do it? I can't even..." Amelia stopped her words and then looked at the magic core in Riya's hand. It was a rank 1 magic core, the same as the core that her brother took out from the large magic beast that blocked their way a week ago.

The magic core has been taken away by Samuel and Amelia had no right to know where it was brought to. But she heard that Samuel wanted to use it for the researchers to do research and find out whether they could integrate it into various technology and so on. If possible, they could even create something new from the magic core.

But there were not many magic rank 1 around the area, so the number of magic core that Samuel could obtain was limited.

"I'm not the only powerful person in the world, Mel," Samuel said and then looked at the magic core in Riya's hand. "And I don't think it's the only magic core you have in your hand."

Riya smiled faintly. "You're right, Senior Samuel, but why should I tell you?"

The atmosphere seemed tense at this moment.

If she had wanted to, she could explore deeper.

But at the same time, there was also a chance that she would be attacked by more magic beasts.

Rune master might be strong.

But their position was usually a support in the battle and without enough resources and preparation, rune master was a bit weaker than other branches.

If she wanted to explore the crack again, Riya planned to make several rank 4 formation with the jade and the rank 3 magic cores she had collected before.

As for rank 1 magic core?

She could use it for another thing.

"I don't plan to sell them just like this to you," Riya said slowly. "Aside from using it for research, I don't think you know much use about this magic core."

Samuel arched his eyebrows slightly but he nodded.

The purification spell was too low rank to purify a magic core. So while the magic beasts' meat could be eaten, the magic core couldn't be absorbed by humans unless they want their internal body be destroyed by the violent mana.

In that world, the magic core has various uses but the technology in that world was different.

And many mages used these magic cores for other purposes such as alchemy, runes making, and many others.

Samuel himself was a pure magic warrior who didn't learn many side profession. Because of this, he didn't know much about the magic core's use.

So Samuel was prepared to listen to Riya's words.
