Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 48: Choosing Dungeon



Every single item that used mana needed to get permission from the Hunters Association to be sold to the public. It functioned as quality control and ensured it could not be misused by the public.

He then put the storage cube on the table, turned on the laptop, and opened the document.

Alex showed it to Garric, "Let's talk about it later. The main topic now is this power system; you can check it here."

Alex had told his sister not to talk about any details regarding the power system, so he knew Garric knew nothing of it.

The cultivation method he gave to Garric had been completely modified by Alex.

If cultivators typically started by building up their bodies first to ensure they could create the best golden core, then Alex reversed the process, changing it to use mana to directly create a core.

This allowed them to create their own pseudo-golden core.

For awakeners, it would boost their abilities to a new level, and for normal people, it would enable them to gain their own abilities.

Another effect was prolonging their lives.

After this, the next step was to grow the core and make the body adapt to it.

The power system then ended here; since Alex had reversed the method, this drastically limited the growth and strength of the user.

The body acted as a container for the core.

If normal people did this with qi, the result would be that their bodies would blow up since they could not contain the energy.

However, since Alex used mana, the body wouldn't blow up; however, it would severely limit the growth of the core.

The core was at a phase that needed to be nurtured, not nurtured by the body.

But Alex did this on purpose; he was sure this power system would be enough to entice the hunter.

As he expected, Garric's eyes glinted with interest as he focused on reading the information.

"I think that should be enough," Alex said as he closed the laptop monitor from the back.

"You can choose a few people to confirm the cultivation method, but before that, I have my own request."

"Before I give it to you, I want the guild to be reestablished first, with exclusive access to three category 1 dungeons, two category 2 dungeons, and one category 3 dungeon.

I also want a permit for my product.

Once the power system is confirmed, the Hunter Association should take full credit while hiding any information that you got it from me.

Then, you need to give me privileged access to information and the market for three-star hunters, and no questions about where I got this."

Hearing Alex's demands, Garric frowned; many of those were not something he could approve of.

But he knew it was of the utmost importance for him to bring this back; this power system would be a solution for what they needed most now—more hunters.

"I need to bring this cultivation method back first before we can talk further."

"Even though the one here is incomplete, if you want to bring it back, you need to fulfill some of my conditions first."

"I will be blunt; I hate back-and-forth negotiation.

What I can do at most is approval for the guild's establishment. For the rest, I cannot do anything."

"That's not enough, Mr. Garric.

I know you can't directly grant me the dungeons, but you should be able to give me a special permit to enter category two dungeons.

Give me this, and we have a deal.

I also want you to make sure no one knows I got this permit," Alex asserted.

Hearing his words, Emily, who had been silent, cut in, "Brother, you're planning to enter a dungeon? It's dangerous."

Even though she knew Alex could regenerate, the thought of her brother entering the dungeon alone still worried her.

Garric also felt the same; the reason he took care of Emily was because he had been there when her father held the dungeon break.

If not for him, he and his family would likely have stayed there forever.

This made Garric feel indebted to their father, but he didn't tell Alex or Emily.

"Your sister is right. I can grant you a special permit, but you'll need to take at least three one-star hunters with you."

Hearing their concerns, Alex felt slightly annoyed.

He wanted to enter to search for monsters to capture and absorb their life force.

Emily was fine, but entering with another two hunters was too risky for him.

He couldn't just kill them to make sure they stayed silent; the other option was to enslave them.

But Alex also didn't want to do that again; in Professor Faerith's case, he had no choice, and that still made him feel guilty.

Seeing her brother deep in thought, MingYue then answered for him. "We agree, Mentor."

Alex frowned, wanting to interject, but Emily's eyes told him not to worry.

He then sighed, deciding to trust her. "Let's do it that way then, Mr. Garric."

They shook hands and made a deal.

Garric then told Alex he would still need to meet with the higher-ups once again to finalize the agreement.

After he left, Alex asked Emily, "Do you have any ideas? We can't bring more people."

"Don't worry, I know what to do. For now, how about we order some food first?"

Emily then raised an eyebrow as she received a message from Garric.

"Mentor asked if you have a specific dungeon in mind. He sent me a list of dungeons; I'll forward it to you."

A new message appeared on Alex's interface, showing a list of category two dungeons near the area.

Alex began to narrow down the list using his ability to choose the best dungeon with the least risk for his purpose.

He narrowed it to three options.

- Goblin Hollows

- Frostbite Den

- Serpent's Lair

Goblins were versatile monsters with some intelligence.

They would serve as good workers since they had a humanoid form. This also made them versatile, as Alex could arm them with various weapons.
