Chapter 116: CH 116: The System’s Origin (1) - (WMR4)
With Dave’s fingers wrapped around the mother crystal, a system notification had instantly flashed in his mind, the message appearing with a sense of finality.
[You have successfully obtained a Mother Crystal]
The notification was then followed by a prompt.
[Do you wish to extract the energy of the Crystal?]
Dave’s eyes narrowed as he read the options. "Extract it? Won’t I have to smash it on the ground?" he muttered to himself, a hint of curiosity in his voice. He wasn’t expecting a response, but the system surprised him as it gave a reply to his inquiry.
[Smashing the mother crystal will ruin the user’s chances of getting a suitable reward] The message appeared, stern and filled with warning.
Still, the prompt had appeared again.
[Do you wish to extract the energy of the crystal instead?]
Dave’s gaze lingered on the notification, his mind weighing his options. People said smashing the crystal will give them gifts, but the system said extracting it will give him rewards. He doesn’t know exactly what each would give him, so why not choose the more surest option.
"Besides, what’s there to lose anyway?" he said, a shrug implied in his tone. Then, without further hesitation, Dave chose the yes option, having made a decision.
At that moment, the mother crystal had begin to glow brighter in his hands, its energy pulsating with an otherworldly power. Dave’s heart quickened, anticipation building in his chest. What would the reward be? Would it be something he would love?
