484 Rewards End
"Well…" Raven paused before saying: "It should have a diminishing effect the more pills you consume. I can't say how much difference there will be but…"
"It doesn't really diminish the usefulness and awesomeness of this pill. I get it." Jason continued his sentence for him. "In fact, I'm not shocked to hear that 'side-effect' if we could even call it that way, I'm relieved but not so much if I'm being honest. I don't even know how I can make full use out of this."
Majority of the team shares the same sentiment as Jason. They just couldn't believe that they got something like this basically for free. They can't help but feel conflicted inside. For one they wanted to keep it for themselves since who the hell in the right mind would refuse something like this, but on the other hand, they couldn't help but ask themselves if they were worthy to receive all of this.
"If we think about it closely…" Ryan spoke after a while of silence, "Resources like this must be widely available to the sect. Which means that, it wasn't only going to be us who will consume this."
"Senior Brother said so before, the sect doesn't lack what we need and so long as we render meritorious services for the sect, they won't hesitate to give us what we want. Come to think of it, this pills should be one of the clues to figure out why War Gods are that formidable."
Ryan looked at Franklin and Edward before saying: "No offense to you two but the Empyreans of Azure Sun Great World looks like common geniuses in front of our Senior Brother. I've never met someone who gives off that kind of aura in my life. But if we're looking at it closely, Senior Brother's cultivation realm is inferior yet he's as strong, if not stronger, than them."
"Which gets me thinking that, that's at least one thing about being War Gods. Cultivations Realms had no meaning. Which is why they are widely respected and feared. Since our Senior Brother is a War God, then he's our first basis of what we have to achieve in order to be titled as War Gods too. And I reckon that this pill is just one of the resources they consumed. They probably consider it as trash by now if I'm being honest."
"What I'm saying is that, we want to be Inner Disciples as soon as we could yeah? Then we better start accumulating strength as early as now. We can't rely on half-hearted efforts if we want to achieve something great. Senior Brother gave this to us since he felt that we're worthy of it. If he could hand out something like this that easily, then what do you guys think we will receive if we displayed our hard work?"
Ryan's statement was impactful and no one could retort it. It just sets their imaginations alight and left them feeling inspired and determined.
Raven was silent but he too felt this way, in fact even stronger that most of them. Truly, his decision to come here was one of the best decisions he ever made.
"Alright, let's all calm down for a bit okay?" Jason smiled wryly, "What Ryan said made a lot of sense and I think we should keep it mind. As for how you consume your pills, you decided, however I hope that you think about the well-being of the team for a bit when you do, it's not that hard."
"Okay, let's distribute the resources and move on. There's still stuff to take out and discussions to have after this." As Jason said this, Raven began distributing the last crate of pills while Jason turned around to take out the next resource on the box.
After everyone got theirs, their attention returned to Jason who's now holding the next resource from the box, in fact he's holding two of them. One was a book, and one is a stack of ticket stubs.
"This book is the one that Senior Brother told us about, I think. It should be the one that contains the descriptions of devils and their bounties. As for the other one, I think they're for the cultivation environments. We've been accumulating a lot of those, so I think we go ahead and visit it soon."
Jason's guesses were on point. The book indeed contains records about all known Devils on Tartarus. It also contains how much Merit Points one could earn from a specific kind of Devil so this is bound to be very important.
As for the ticket stubs, they each contained a full week's worth on any cultivation environment of their choosing. And just like what Jason said, they've been accumulating a lot of those so a visit towards the halls is definitely needed.
After distributing the ticket stubs, Jason once again took out something from the badge. This time, its a unique looking device.
It looked like a globe that has the similar partitions like the one present on the chariot earlier. It looked dull and unimpressive as well. It comes along with several thin wrist bangles that looked like a simple metal strap with some runes etched on its surface.
"I have no idea what this is. But this should be something that works like the chariot. Maybe we will know if we place a drop of our blood in it." Jason suggested.
No one disagreed so he went first, and as soon as his blood touched the globe, it absorbed the blood and released a soft glow of light, which confirms Jason's theory earlier. The globe then absorbed the blood of everyone on the team. It released a brilliant glow of it light and began transforming in front of them.
It changed shape. It became a rectangular metal piece floating in the air, it's also released some soft fluctuations as well showing rows of information on its surface.
The words are written using Elven Language, something that's universally known. It contains the names of each one of them as well as their current location and their status. There are also some legends written underneath which tells them what some signs and figures means.
"Ah, so this is like a monitoring device." Edward said as they collectively inspected the item in front of them. "It contains our basic information and tracks our location periodically. It also shows our statuses, which means that when some of us went out, the rest can monitor if we're alive, in danger or dead. That's very useful."
It's indeed as Edward says. This item right here is going to be very useful and pretty much confirms the fact that not all of them will be required to go out in the hunt every single time. Some people will be left in the base and they could always designate someone to monitor the device to see whether their teammates are doing well or in danger.
"It also says here that we could use these wristbands to communicate with each other. The wristbands also contains a tracking device which we could use to search someone should they go missing. This screen only tells us the name of the place were in but the wristbands could track other wristbands, allowing us to locate each other. It's indeed very useful, specially in place like this where visibility is low."
Michelle's words were also on point, this item will definitely be of great use for them when time comes. With this and the other resources they got from Henry, their security and chances against devils had gone better. It gave them no reason to hesitate about facing them at all. And compared to the other units, their team got an upper-hand. If they do not full take-advantage of this and still fail to display great results, then they deserve to be punished.
"Okay, we're down to the last items on the box. And from looks of it, it seems like they're constructs." Jason informed after inspecting the last items within the box.
These constructs are currently small, they rested on his palms perfectly. There's four of them with identical designs. As for what they do, that's what they're about to figure out.
Inspecting the constructs closely, they saw the similar sphere with partitions connecting each construct. And just like how the earlier iterations went, they once again let the sphere absorb their blood and once that's out of the way, the constructs grew bigger or more accurately, returned to their original size.
It turns out that these constructs were called as Sentinels. Their task is to guard the base, protecting it from any potential harm. The disciples doesn't need to interfere with the constructs too much since they were fully automated.
They could function on their own. With a simple scan of the current base of Unit-17, they already determined their patrol route and immediately went after it. The team barely even had the chance to inspect them close enough.
Since they were activated by the blood of the whole unit, they will be recognized the by the Sentinels. As for other people, they need to have someone from the team escorting them or else they'll be considered as intruders and will be attacked on sight.
