Chapter 933: Meeting With A Mysterious Man(II)

Bai Meiyue’s eyes brightened. She had spent the entire afternoon thinking about how to use these second-grade crystal nuclei. Though her brothers, Lei Qian and her mother, had been using their abilities and learning how to use them, without proper training, she did not believe that they would be able to reach their true potential.

Maybe they would remain weaker than an experienced fighter.

"I need the best skill books that are available," Bai Meiyue murmured. "And you better not hand me something that is simply mediocre at best."

The last time she asked this system to handle the matter, it had given her something of low quality. In the end, she had no other choice but to look for something on her own. If not for the fact that she did not have the time to search for something, she would have done it and would never have left the matter in the hands of the system.

[Ding! Searching the interdimensional barter notifications.]

[Match Made successfully.]

The room around her dissolved, and she found herself standing in the middle of the familiar white room. The familiar white ceiling and lights materialised in front of her slowly. In front of her stood a man in a long black cloak. Maybe it was her imagination, but Bai Meiyue felt as if the man was shrouded in mystery herself. There seemed to be a gloomy aura wrapped around the man, which made him look even more unfathomable than anyone else she had ever met.

"Hello?" said the man with a little bow. The hood of his balaclava stayed in place, and Bai Meiyue could not even catch sight of his face. When she saw how mysterious the man was, Bai Meiyue had a feeling that maybe the system had given her another dud. However, she had already used her points, and Bai Meiyue did not want to waste this barter.

Let’s just see what this man has to offer.

Bai Meiyue pursed her lips, and in a voice that she thought was polite, she replied to the man, "Hello. I am Bai Meiyue, the owner of the —"

"The Bai safe base. I read your information displayed on the panel." The man pointed to the barter system notification panel before asking, "Is it true that your world has zombies? The kind that moves and eats the brains of humans?"

"Do they really affect the human brain and turn them into zombies as well?"

"Have you finally found an antidote for it?"

He asked one thing after another, causing Bai Meiyue to frown hard. She tilted her head to one side and tried to see the face of the man but she couldn’t. The man had hidden his face quite well. In the end, she simply nodded and replied, "We do have zombies, but we do not have the kind that just eat brains. They are the kind that eats the entire human. And no, we do not have any antidote for it."If she did, then she would not be here in the first place. She would be living a peaceful life with her son!

When the man heard that there was no antidote, he nodded in understanding. "Well, it seems that you are living quite an exciting life."

Exciting life? Bai Meiyue’s lips twitched. Well, that was one way to put it. However, even though she had something to say about it, she kept it to herself. "Well, did you read the notification? Do you have what I want?" She could not help but ask straightforwardly when she realised that there was no point in talking with the man in front. It seemed like he had some sort of screw loose in his head. If not, who in their right mind would say that she was living an exciting life?

Was living between zombies exciting or deadly? This man needed to have a proper understanding of the situation first! A man who thought that living with zombies was exciting- Bai Meiyue did not even want to keep much hope in him. What if he just proved that he was a dud? Then she might be left with disappointment.

"I did," the man replied before he started rummaging in the pockets of his robes, and no sooner had he finished looking than he pulled four books out of the pocket of his robes. Bai Meiyue realised that the man in front actually had a special robe that had spatial pockets in it. Though she was surprised, she did not show it on her face. After all, she had met all kinds of interdimensional people, and this was nothing shocking when compared to the others she had seen.

And while the fact that the man had spatial pockets did not surprise her, Bai Meiyue was surprised when she saw the four books that the man took out from his pockets. She immediately started to examine them.

That was when she realised that the man had actually brought the books that could help her brother. The first book that she picked up was the metal sovereign. The pages of the book looked like they were made of iron, but when she flipped through the book, she realised that the pages were very light. They just looked glossy and heavy, like iron blocks.

Metal body reinforcement, external metal manipulation, metal weapon formation, metallic armour, and metallic assimilation. No matter how she looked at it, Bai Meiyue knew that this book was perfect for her elder brother. The more she read the content of the book, the more her eyes sparkled.

Her elder brother could transform his skin into metal, but other than that, he could not do anything. What was more, he had a hard time keeping his body in the metallic form and would return to his human form soon. However, if she could give this book to her brother, she would be able to change his current status. Maybe her brother could even level up to S rank from A rank!
