Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

490 They Have Just Been Running a Store

'System, can I see the properties of this boosting pill?' Jack questioned in his mind.

[Boosting pill: The pill is capable of increasing a person's strength by three levels inconsiderate of the current level that they are in.]

Jack: "…."

Jack was surprised. Increasing the level of a person by three levels without considering the current level that they were in? How powerful was this pill? Additionally, this was actually the first income reward of just a small store.

What was going to happen if he began an organization that dealt with trade? Didn't that mean that he was going to receive a better reward than this?

[That is not a guarantee. The only reason why the reward for this time has been quite high is simply because the host has gained his first income inside the stronghold domain. So, there was a boost in the quality of the reward that host received.]

Unlucky for him, the system poured a cold basin of water onto the excitement that had already begun surging within his heart. The excitement that was just about to make him try to look for more stores to open suddenly calmed down a little.

Jack thought about the matter carefully. Although it might between that the quality of the boosting pill was high simply because of the increase in the quality of the reward, but, he had not given up.

It was not as If this was going to be the last first income reward that he was going to receive from the system. There were a lot more chances that he was going to use in order to get rewards from the system.

So, even if they might not be at the same level as the boosting pill, he might as well go ahead and accumulate them, only retrieving them after they had been increased in terms of quality.

After making a decision, Jack thought about the boosting pill. Who was he supposed to give the pill? Currently, from the information that he had received, he knew that the higher the level of the person, the higher the quality of the resources that they needed in order to develop further.

That implied that, the prices of the resources that were going to be required in order to nurture a group of superhumans was definitely going to increase as they increase in terms of their own stages.

Currently, he himself was at the second stage of the superhuman level. And, if he really decided to use all the cards that he possessed currently, he was going to be capable of reaching the 8th stage of the superhuman level.

It was just that, he thought that it was going to be wasteful if he decided to use the boosting pill right now. He had to save this pill and only use it during the time that there was an emergency, just like the chances that he had saved.

Although he really wished to have Denali become a superhuman as well, but, it was going to be a waste for him to be using such a miraculous pill on a person who was still at the ordinary human level.

For Denali, Samantha, Celine and himself, as long as they managed to get resources, Jack believed that it was going to be easy for them to be able to level up. But of course, there was going to be some adjustments that he was going to make.

He was not going to use the low quality resources that were present within this small stronghold. Rather, he wanted to use the system to increase the quality of the resources before using them. But, that plan had to be put on hold for a while now.

After Jack finally came to this decision, he realized that Celine was standing in front of him. She was looking at him a little worried. She could not help but ask after realizing that he was looking at her, "Are you okay Jack? You seem lost. Is there anything in your mind and do you mind sharing?"

Looking at the caring expression that was on Celine's face, Jack realized that this time, it seemed that he had actually not paid much attention to the surroundings. Since it had been a while since he had interacted with the system in public, he had done something that he had always done during the time that he was alone.

But to say the truth, he was excited that Celine really cared about him. Of course, although he believed that she cared about him, it was completely different if she showed it directly to him.

"There's no need for you to worry. I'm okay. It's just that I was thinking of something. But I'll let you know later on." Jack responded with a smile on his face.

Celine was relieved after seeing that Jack was okay. But still, she thought that there was something that he was hiding. But, since he had said that he was going to let her know about what he was thinking about later on, then, she decided to wait.

And just like that, the group spent the entire day chatting with each other as they attended to the customers. It was just that, the number of customers was not that high.

Moreover, even the quality of the items that were present inside the store was not that much attractive to the high level members of the stronghold. So far, Jack and his group had only attended to seven people, and both of them were at third or fourth star of the ordinary human level.

When evening came, Jack decided that they had to close the store. Although they had taken lunch inside here, something that was purchased from a small restaurant not far away from where they were, but still, he preferred home cooked food.

Additionally, it does not as if they had to run the store 24/7. Unlike the other stores, although the customers that have come over into the store was quite low, but, the income that he had received for this day was quite high.

So, despite the fact that Denali wanted to continue running the store, Jack decided against it. It might be true that with Denali's current strength, she was capable of staying up the entire night, but, that was not his motive of coming into the stronghold.

They didn't come here to suffer, rather, other than looking for the information about his mother's whereabouts, they had to make sure that they enjoyed their own lives.

Since it was the decision that Jack had made, with 100% loyalty that she possessed towards Jack, Denali did not object what Jack had decided on. So, the group of four left the store, going back to the building that they had purchased recently.

Immediately after Jack's group left, a man wearing a mask that was covering half of his face came from a outdoor bar not far away from the location of the store. He looked in the direction that Jack and his group had left in, before he turned around and headed in the opposite direction after boarding a vehicle.

He was heading towards the center of the territory, the area where the big organizations were located. And not long after, he finally arrived in front of the Panthers organization.

But instead of going through the front, he went through another method that was only known by him and a few others to enter the Panthers organization.

After a few turns, the man finally arrived in front of a mansion. The mansion was quite majestic, unlike those that were in the surrounding areas.

And just like he did when he was entering The Panthers organization territory, he did not go through the front door. Rather, he went into a bush that was not far away, then jumped into it.

It turned out that Inside the bush, there was actually a secret entrance. But of course, it was protected by high level of technology. It only opened after the guy with the black mask placed his hand on the ground for 5 seconds or so.

The moment that the opening opened, the man who was standing inside the bush suddenly fell., He did not panic. Rather, he seemed to have already gotten used to this.

Thud!

A few seconds later, he landed onto the ground heavily. But, with his current abilities, this kind of fall did not affect him. So, he looked around, he had landed inside a basement.

Not thinking much about it, the man took a few steps ahead, climbed the stairs that led towards the ground floor. And after arriving at the ground floor, he went towards another direction where there was yet another room through the magnificent walls.

When he arrived in front of the room, he knocked twice.

"Come in." A detached and emotionless voice came from within the room. And after hearing the voice, the man felt his body shivering a little. But still, he pushed the door open.

Unlike the advanced doors that require the passcode in order to enter, this was just like the normal doors that were found inside the normal world.

After opening the door, he entered into something like a study room. And currently, there was a lady with wavy blue hair who was looking at him with a nonchalant expression on her face.

"What did you find out?" The lady asked the moment that the man stepped into the room.

After giving a slight bow, the man responded respectfully, "I have been following them the entire day. But, they have not done anything else other than just running a store. It doesn't seem like they are going to do anything soon."
