Chapter 269 The Power Of Money
The Money Hero was a very powerful existence among the heroes. Although her power relied on money and it could be said that her power would fluctuate depending on her assets, she was an existence who could become the strongest among the heroes if she spent enough money.
In other words, the Money Hero was a pay-to-win player.
Currently, the Money Hero was a Grand Mage and a Master Warrior.
Even among the rest of the heroes, she was by far one of the strongest. However, if her money ran out, she would be defeated by the rest of the heroes and that's why she decided to cooperate with them instead of having an infighting.
The Money Hero didn't even have to train since her authority could conceptually purchase almost anything. Whether it was the skills of a warrior or their combat experience, she could purchase and acquire it. n./0VelbIn
If there was something that she couldn't purchase, then it was the hero authorities of the other heroes. It was not due to the lack of money, but it was basically the limit of her Purchase Right Authority.
All hero authorities were on the same level as each other. They were all Seven-Digit Divine Authorities. Since none of the hero authorities were stronger than the other, the Money Hero couldn't acquire the hero authorities of her hero colleagues.
Although that was impossible, it wasn't impossible for her to purchase the world laws.
It might just be temporary ownership as it was expensive to purchase permanent ownership, but the Money Hero managed to purchase a part of the world law which allowed her to hide her presence from even the Demon King.
It was no wonder that the Dwarf King despite being a Grand Warrior couldn't even detect the Money Hero's presence.
Even Alister was surprised to find out that his magic sense, aura sense, and other perception methods and skills couldn't even detect the presence of the Money Hero!
It was as if the Money Hero had purchased the right to blend in with the world. Alister couldn't detect her presence by using normal means.
'If not for my All-Seeing Heavenly Eyes, even I can't detect the presence of the Money Hero unless she is within several meters of me. Fortunately, the simulated talents are authorities with a higher grade than the authorities of the heroes in Fantasia.'
'From what I can detect, the Money Hero should be a few hundred meters away from my and the Dwarf King's current location.'
'From what I have known about the Money Hero's authorities from the memories of the Sword Hero, the Money Hero's Purchase Right Authority might be one of the most annoying hero authorities. As long as the Money Hero has enough money, she can even kill Zanna by purchasing the right for Zanna to die.'
'According to the history of Fantasia, there was indeed a case when the previous generations of Money Hero were left with no choice but to sacrifice the wealth of the two human kingdoms just to kill the Demon King. It's a lot more absolute than the Curse Hero's Death Curse.'
'However, the hero authorities can't be underestimated. At least for the natives of this world such as Zanna, they would still be affected by the hero authorities.'
'In a sense, authorities are like an absolute version of skill or power. Only a stronger authority can defeat another authority.'
When Alister thought about the Money Hero's Purchase Right Authority, he wasn't that worried. Although he was wary of it, that was only due to his cautious personality.
At most, he wouldn't want Zanna to become a victim of the Money Hero's Purchase Right Authority.
Of course, if he was caught off-guard and something undesirable had happened, it was not like he couldn't reset the universe with his death. In the simulation, Alister was confident and he had a lot of room for errors.
His goal of obtaining as much information regarding the heroes was almost completed. The only heroes he hadn't encountered yet were the Food Hero and the Book Hero.
As long as he obtained their information, Alister had already planned to end the simulation by fighting against the Demon King.
As for the information regarding the Dragon King and the demon generals, Alister wasn't much interested in wasting his time with them. They might be powerful, but not powerful enough to make him interested in them.
After discovering the presence of the Money Hero using his All-Seeing Heavenly Eyes, Alister started discussing terms with the Dwarf King.
In the end, the Dwarf King not only had to owe him a favor but half of the hero-slaying artifacts in the dwarf race's treasury was to be given to him. That was still excluding their previous deal but it could only be done when the Dwarf King was alive.
Since the Money Hero endangered the life of the Dwarf King, Alister planned to eliminate the Money Hero as soon as possible.
After coming to an agreement with the Dwarf King, Alister held the tree branch in his right hand, "Tree Branch Swing Up!"
This time, Alister used aura and combined it with sword intent.
With an upward swing of his tree branch, a wave of aura and sword intent was like a tsunami that engulfed anything in its path. It was heading towards the location of the Money Hero at a fast speed.
Surprisingly, none of the buildings or dwarf citizens that were swept by the aura and sword intent wave were affected by it. The buildings weren't destroyed and the dwarf citizens didn't die.
It was like a light wave just hit them and although such a powerful aura and sword intent wave alerted the dwarf citizens, it didn't bring any danger to their lives. Aside from the light effect, it felt as if nothing happened.
However, the same didn't happen for the Money Hero.
When the Money Hero saw the powerful aura and sword intent wave, the Money Hero decisively took out a money bag from her storage magic.
The money bag was filled with gold coins but in the blink of an eye, the powerful aura and sword intent wave disappeared along with the money bag!
When Alister saw his attack being negated by just a money bag, he couldn't help but feel that it was quite unusual, "Is this the power of money?"
