Chapter 326 Chapter 326: Merit Hall

Hope City, Tryst Academy, Merit Hall

All academies whether it be the third-rate or the best academy which was the Guardian Academy all have their own Merit Halls which basically have more or less the same function

The Merit Hall is used to issue, accept, and report the completion of Academy-issued missions. The missions can range from simple jobs to extremely dangerous and the more dangerous a mission is, the richer the rewards and vice-versa

Coincidentally, the day that Rezen broke through to the mid-level Junior Mage is also the \'rest day\' that the academy provided to the students for the transition from the first to the second semester

The 1st semester is used for the students to get used to the academy, its rules, and the overall environment. The 1st semester is also for the students to consolidate and strengthen their foundation. After all, even the rich students with great background don\'t necessarily have sturdy foundations

No matter what, Tryst Academy is still a second-rate academy. In the outer walls, even the families with Senior Mages might not necessarily have the same level of foundation as the Tryst Academy and the foundation is very important!

That can determine whether a talented mage will become mediocre or an untalented mage rising to become a genius!

There was a reason why even those with a well-off background in the outer walls still wanted to enter and become a student of a second-rate academy!

The \'rest day\' of the students can also be used not just for leisure but also to gain merit points which was the academy\'s hard currency

Although money which was equivalent to mana stones in this world can also be used to convert into merit points, the conversion rate is extremely high and oftentimes not worth it. After all, rich people exist

If everything can be bought with money then what could normal students use to catch up to these bourgeois?

Hence, it was still necessary to accept missions in the academy to gain merit points even when one was a bourgeois!

As Rezen entered the Merit Hall, there were quite a number of people inside. All of them are either browsing through the available missions, accepting them, or reporting the completion of the missions they accepted. Some are also exchanging their merit points for cultivation resources

As long as they have enough merit points, the students can secure the resources that they want and need, increasing their cultivation speed and leaving geniuses outside of the academy behind!

Rezen himself also went to the large wall where all the available missions were posted. Since he already planned on killing magic beasts he might as well accept a mission or two so that he can earn merit points, especially for spirit plants that can help him

While Rezen has explored resource points in the past, his strength was still very much lacking. How can the resources he secured be on par with the resources that the academy can secure? There was no point in comparison at all

"Hmm.. a mission to kill Contaminated Spiders?" Rezen\'s attention was piqued by this particular mission

He stayed inside the academy for 3 months already. Naturally, Rezen already knows quite a lot. He knows that the academy also owned resource points which are one of the things that the academy used to keep running

The Contaminated Spiders are also in the location of one of the Academy\'s resource points. However, just like the government-owned resource points, the academy\'s resource points also contained some danger

Magic beasts might be humanity\'s enemy but the former are also considered resources for the latter

Many potions or weapons require the carcass of magic beasts. As such, the magic beasts in resource points are not fully exterminated

Although the current level of danger of these resource points was far from the danger prior to the discovery, nonetheless, danger still exists. That is especially so for the Contaminated Spiders located at the Krome Underground resource point

It\'s not that the spiders are very strong but it was because they are troublesome to deal with. Not only were the spiders poisonous but even the environment is unsuitable for humans!

Many poisonous herbs and other poisonous objects can be found inside this resource point. Oftentimes, such magic beasts and places are more dangerous than resource points that have stronger magic beasts

While there are many potions and herbs that can prevent or cure one from being poisoned but would they only need one or two of such a thing? Of course not!

They would need a lot as they would constantly be in danger of being poisoned to death. The resources that they can secure from this resource point might not even be enough to pay the investment that they poured into the exploration

As such, not many people accept missions that have to be done in the Krome Underground, causing the number of Contaminated Spiders to increase. Even forcing the academy to issue a mission to exterminate these spiders

"1000 spiders is equivalent to one merit point, 100 1st cycle spiders for one merit point, 80 2nd cycle spiders for one merit point, 50 3rd cycle spiders for one merit point, and 5 4th cycle spiders for one merit point. It seems like earning merit points is not easy" Rezen sighed as he looked at this rate of conversion but on second thought since the purchasing power of merit points is high, this is not too surprising

Not to mention, considering that the Contaminated Spiders are weak, this conversion rate is not bad. After all, if one can counter the poison of these spiders, they can easily kill multiple spiders at their level

The only strong point of these spiders is their poison and once their poison doesn\'t work, it is easy for other entities at the same level to kill them. It is even possible for lower-level entities to kill a higher-level spider if the poison doesn\'t work on them

"Fortunately, I\'m only accepting missions for more benefits. My main goal is the corpses of these magic beasts. Not to mention, there is a special type of stones that can be found in the Krome Underground. I need these Contaminated Stones more than a few merit points!"

The contaminated crystals are similar to mana stones. In fact, these contaminated stones might also be previously mana stones. Unfortunately, these stones were contaminated by the environment. Whether it be mages or magic artifacts, they cannot use these stones

Of course, it was possible to purify the contaminated stones but the cost-performance ratio is far from desirable. Hence, the contaminated stones were left alone and were treated as useless stones

However, Rezen is different. "I have the farm, even if these mana stones are contaminated, I believe the farm can still absorb them. Not to mention, since the stones have poison attributes, growing poison-type spirit plants would be easier and their quality is also higher. In this world, the power of poison cannot be underestimated. It is one of the easiest weapons that the weak can use to fight the strong"

Rezen doesn\'t discriminate against poison and mages that mainly cultivate poison magic. After all, the effects of poisons are incredible. It can let the weak defeat the strong!

Now that Rezen is the weak, he naturally also has many poison stored to use against strong enemies. In fact, with the farm\'s help, Rezen doesn\'t fear even 5th and 6th cycle entities due to number of offensive spirit plants that he grew and stored

At this level, quantity can still defeat quality!

"The contaminated stones are helpful to me and if I discover unique poison-attribute spirit plants then I will have more trump cards on my arsenal" Rezen thought and he didn\'t hesitate to accept a few missions inside the Krome Underground

While this resource point is not popular, it was still a resource point. There are also precious resources that can only be found in such a place

As such, Rezen went to one of the merit ball staff and handed his student token to accept the mission

"A new 2nd semester student? Are you sure about accepting these missions? While the contaminated spiders are weak but their poison are very potent! Not to mention, the environment is also very harsh. Even 3rd and 4th semester students seldom accept missions inside the Krome Underground" The kind-hearted staff tried to persuade Rezen as he knew how dangerous the Krome Underground is

Many students already died inside. After all, there is no free meal in this world. Even if the resource point is owned by the academy, it was still possible to die inside!

"It\'s alright, I have my own plans" Rezen replied kindly. With his farm, he doesn\'t need to care about the cost of purifying agents! He has a lot of spirit plants that can remove and purify poison and even prevent people from being poisoned! This environment is perfect for him
