Eternal Thief

Chapter 656 Unexpected Boon!

Hearing Cyrus's warning, Ace's expression became serious, "Do you notice the dense Qi here?"

Eva nodded, "Yes. The deeper we go, the denser the Qi. It seems we are in the right place, and it's not some lode either."

"Well, let's find out where we are." Ace's eyes went sharp as he used the sword light to attack the wall ahead and burst it open.

He had already seen the fate map, and it was still gray, which would only mean this place was safe.

The moment the wall was broken, a cloudy mist filled with Qi entered the passage.

"How refreshing," Cyrus exclaimed happily.

Even Ace was astonished by the thick Qi, and the system's voice rang at this moment.

======

[Host has absorbed 2 SP]

[Host has absorbed 4 EXP]

[Host has absorbed 1 SP]

[Host has absorbed 3 EXP]

[Host has absorbed 5 SP]

[Host has absorbed 2 EXP]

[Host has absorbed 3 SP]

======

'It's just liked the time when I discovered the Soul Crystal Source, and the Qi absorption is even more ridiculous.' Ace mused with an eager look as he walked forward.

He knew since the Qi absorption was so high here, then the Qi density would be quite high, and whatever this place was, it was a treasure on its own.

Eva also followed behind closely with shining eyes. It was her first time coming in contact with such a dense amount of Qi.

The moment they walked past the opened wall, they were greeted by a strange scene. Although the space was filled with white misty Qi, they could clearly see pitch black sheen far ahead as if it was the focal point of this place.

A few meters above this focal point was a fifty-meter large vacuum, and the mist was getting sucked into that vacuum at terrifying speed.

"It seemed we found our target." Ace's eyes went cold as he looked at the black focal point and the vacuum.

The vacuum was clearly the regal fiend tower's doing, but the most astonishing thing was the Qi was not ending at all like it was endless.

"System is the Independent Space Core?" Ace questioned the system since he wanted to be sure.

"[Affirmative! As long as the host enters its 10-meter range, the system can take it from there.]"

Ace's cocked an eyebrow, hearing the system's revelation. He thought he had to grab that thing, but it seemed he was in luck since the system was going to act personally, and this it couldn't be safer.

"You can send the tower away. I'm going to get rid of that thing." Ace told Eva without hesitation.

Eva was startled for a moment, but she could feel Ace wasn't joking, and he was confident this time.

"Alright, be careful." She softly warned before she closed her eyes to activate the teleportation.

Ace merely smiled and moved toward the black focal point. But he kept the fate map active just in case some unexpected trap popped up.

But he was just being paranoid, and he reached the ten-meter distant without any hitch. If anything, the Qi absorption was now at least 20 SP and 20 EXP, which was filling up his SP and EXP at an astonishing rate.

Yet, he was still far away from reaching the 150 million mark.

He was about to ask the system what to do next when the notification rang on its own.

=====

[Host has discovered a Lowest-Grade Independent Space Core!]

pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ [Please choose an option]ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

1- Do you want to collect it?

2- Do you want to absorb it and upgrade your Living Thief's Space to 1,000 Cubic-Meter Space + 5 Humanoid Storage Capacity?

=====

'I can even collect it?' Ace's lips curled up, 'I need 100 Grade-8 storage rings and 50 Million Thief Points for this upgrade while I don't need a space core for anything, or I have no idea about its uses, and the system refused to tell me. Even if I know the Thief's Space is far more beneficial to me than anything…'

He chose in a heartbeat, "I chose the second option. Upgrade the thief's space."

Ace knew finding just 1 grade-8 storage ring was almost impossible, much less collecting 100. Even those most powerful experts might not owe one, so it was a much better option to upgrade the thief's space while he still had the chance.

After this upgrade, there would be only one last upgrade left, which required a grade-9 storage space treasure and a grade-9 time-type treasure. This was an impossible condition to fulfill for now.

The moment Ace selected the option, the black focal point just ten meters away from him suddenly trembled, and under Ace's flabbergasted expression, it vanished the next moment!

'So quick?' He marveled at System's efficiency, and he didn't even get to see how it took the space core at all.

He snapped out of his daze when he sensed something and quickly observed the thief's space.

At this moment, the thief's space started to expand at an alarming rate as all those storage rings in four corners now looked like small piles creating a ring in the center of the space.

Soon, the thief's space size was double, and the thief's house member spaces were also expanded at the same time, startling the two ladies.

After the expansion was done, the system's voice rang,

=====

[Living Thief's Space has been updated!]

---

[Living Thief's Space States]

-Storage Space Capacity: 1,000 Cubic-Meter Living Space

-Living Space Capacity:

1. 9 Humanoids (Humans, Demons, Hunters, etc.)

2. 99,999 None-Humanoid (Beasts, Herbs, Plants, Natural Treasures, etc.)

=====

Ace smiled in satisfaction at this new upgrade, and after giving Noa and Freya a small update on the situation, his attention was shifted to the outside again.

But the system was not done as another notification rang again, alarming him.

=====

[Low Grade-7 Soul Crystal Source has been detected!]

[Low Grade-7 Qi Stone Vein has been detected!]

-Requiring permission for the host to absorb the Soul Crystal Source and Qi Stone Vein

[Yes/No]

--

Reward(s):

1. 200 Million EXP & 200 Million SP

2. The host will be able to absorb EXP and SP from Qi Stones and Soul Crystals (From Grade-4 to Grade-7)

=====

Ace's eyes widened when he saw this unexpected notification, and his heart raced, 'Don't tell me this place is really a lode of both Qi stones and Soul Crystals and a Grade-7 one at that!'

Thrilled, without hesitation, he commanded, "Start the absorption!"
