I am an Eldritch Entity-Chapter 231: A short break and exchange mechanisms

Eryndor looked at the few pieces of plants in his hand and thought.

These are all raw materials, would the Support Shrine be able to convert them into pills or such?

It was common knowledge that raw materials could indeed be consumed directly to gain the advantages but converting them into a more appropriate form through the help of people who dabbled in different domains of mastery was always better.

The pills made by alchemists would give you a far greater advantage than the raw materials which contributed to the making of the pill.

The weapon made by craftsmen would be far better than just fighting with raw ore.

Therefore, it was almost always a better choice to convert the raw materials.

Eryndor exited his tiny room which consisted of a bed, temperature regulator, a charging point and a few other miscellaneous things.

Since he was already paying so much, Eryndor had decided to have a shower in the Support Shrine itself.

Coming face to face with the interface once again, he scrolled through the numerous options and soon found what he was looking for.

The Support Shrine indeed helped with converting the resources you found in the secret realm into whatever you wanted.

There was a charging fee, and of course, you had to submit all your gathered resources which you wanted to convert.

This charging fee is way higher than in the outside world.

Eryndor thought, as he gazed at the points needed.

True, points were simply a virtual currency which had a limited influence of only being of use in this tournament.

However, Eryndor could still look through the prices of various items on the list and form a rough value of the points.

For example, if in the outside world, a toothpaste cost hundred federation dollars, and the charging fee to hire a professional cost twenty thousand federation dollars, then in the Support Shrine, the toothpaste cost hundred points and the charging fee was thirty thousand points.

Of course, those weren't real values, just an example, but it still demonstrated how expensive the charging fee was in the Support Shrine.

Eryndor could guess why.

Is it because these resources were found in this secret realm and aren't exactly ours?

There was a high chance that was the case.

It would also explain why all the resources could be sold to the Support Shrine at a higher price than in the outside world.

Of course, the students would only get points in return for selling, which was simply a made up currency for this tournament, but it would still be useful if it allowed them to rush into top ten ranks. frёeωebɳovel.com

It was as if the Academy was discouraging them from taking the resources for themselves.

Well, I can understand why they would do it, but not like I care.

Our team is not one of the weaker ones which would need to resort to such tactics to stay in the top ten.

We can easily consume these resources without any problem.

Despite convincing himself, it still gave him a heartache as he watched his points go down after he decided to pay the charging fee.

Apparently, it looked like the pills which he requested were already ready so he quickly got them instead of having to wait.

It seems they haven't employed anyone to make these items on the spot as soon as the students submit the raw materials.

Rather, they've already put all the items which could be made from the resources found in this secret realm in the warehouse of the Support Shrines

This way, as soon as a student submits their resources and wants a specific kind of item, they would be able to make an exchange immediately.

Eryndor commended the mechanism before retreating to his room.

Looking at the seven pills in his hand, he decided to utilize them after he had a good sleep.

Right now he was functioning purely on willpower.

As soon as his head hit the bed, he was immediately pulled into the comforting darkness of sleep.

Approximately six hours later, he woke up with complete clarity of mind and a rejuvenated body.

His entire being felt fresh. It immensely helped that he had taken a shower prior to going to bed.

As someone practicing a power system, he didn't need a proper eight hour sleep to recover, even four to five hours were enough.

It was just that his previous condition was so bad that it took him six hours before he naturally woke up after his body felt it was fully recovered.

Stretching his entire physique, Eryndor went through his morning routine before settling back on the bed.

There's still two more hours before which I'll be prompted to leave or pay more, I should start consuming those pills.

The name of those pills was Pure Qi pills.

Similar to Qi Gathering pills, these pills also didn't change name the higher their quality was.

Those suitable for people at level one were called level one Pure Qi pills, those appropriate for level two were called level two Pure Qi pills and so on.

If Qi Gathering pills increased the absorption speed of the surrounding Qi, then Pure Qi pills had plenty of Qi packed in themselves.

It was said that even compared to Qi crystals, the efficiency and effect of absorbing Qi from Pure Qi pills was better.

Pure Qi pills dwarfed Qi Gathering pills both in absorption speed and quantity as they allowed a person to absorb the Qi packed inside them at startling efficiency.

Eryndor looked at the seven pills in his hand, three of them were at level two, and four were at level one.

Similar to Qi Gathering pills, it would be extremely difficult if someone at a lower level tried to control the advantages brought about by consuming a Pure Qi pill of higher level.

Controlling the incoming Qi was no joke. If you failed to manipulate all the Qi which was rushing in into the correct channel, then there was a high chance of cultivation deviation.

Finally, let's use them.
