Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 124 Surveillance or… Protection?

Samuel thought for a moment and then said, "There'll be time when they're open to the public but it would take some time. As you can see, the base is still being built and the resources are important for us."

Riya can see that.

She was thinking about the appropriate amount of contribution that would make it worth her time. Besides, making the low rank magic core usable like that didn't really require much effort from her.

The problem was, there were no one else who could do it around here aside from Riya.

"Forget it, just use contribution points." Riya shook her head. "I just hope that I can hear some information first hand."

Samuel arched his eyebrows and then said, "Some information is confidential. Miss Riya, do you mind living in my house? You can stay with Amelia, of course, and I'll not restrain your action."

Riya arched her eyebrows. "Is this surveillance, Senior Samuel?"

"You can think of it that way or..." Samuel tapped the table in front of him and said, "Protection."

Protection?

Who will protect who?

Riya wanted to roll her eyes because she knew that there were not many people who could hurt her. Besides, she was still holding formation in her body right now, which would be activated when someone attacked her.

So if someone had malicious intention, a rank 3 formation will be enough to kill them just from the counterattack energy alone.

Riya was not worried.

And for surveillance...

It was a bit annoying but it was still acceptable. Because the person who basically watched over her is also her best friend. It could be a wonder if Amelia could do a good job of watching over Riya all the time.

"Alright, let's set it this way."

"For the contribution points amount..." Samuel thought for a moment and then asked, "40 for each time you made one? The materials will be provided by us and you only need to use your mana."

Coming out of the room, he saw the others were waiting. He glanced at Amelia. "Bring Riya to the guest room beside yours. Afterwards, come out to Carson Family's villa. Miss Sophia, please."

Sophia nodded and turned around. She still knew the direction to the Carson Family's villa.

"Wait, this magic core...?"

"Mother, you can use it to supply water. Before that, test the content in the research institute to make sure it's safe to use," Samuel said.

This was also included in the agreement between him and Riya. The runes had to be perfect that the water produced by the magic core would not contain violent mana and safe for consumption.

For Riya, this was a simple matter.

Samuel himself knew that if the runes were correct, the water would be safe for consumption. But they didn't know Riya's full capability yet, so it would be better for them to make this arrangement for testing.

Otherwise, some people would feel insecure to use the water produced by the magic core.

"Yes."

"Aunt, can I come along?" Ruby asked. She was also curious about this.

"Sure." Mrs. Jones smiled.

Amelia saw her brother's gaze and beckoned for RIya to follow her. She didn't know what Riya was talking with her brother, but it seemed that from now on, Riya will stay at her home.

When her brother left, she would start asking questions to Riya.

The living room was empty and Sophia was already outside. Samuel turned to look at his father. "Is there anything else you would like to add, Father?"

Mr. Jones shook his head. "I was just here to take a look at that child. There are many interesting people in this era and I hope you can stay ahead, Samuel. This world can be really cruel."

After saying that, Mr. Jones also walked out.

Samuel didn't reply and followed his father out of the mansion. However he would be heading to Carson Family's villa instead of going with his father.
