Chapter 257: Harsh Punishment
There wasn't a single reward, but two rewards for the quest.
Aakesh not only liked the increase in level but seeing he would also get an offensive skill made the rewards more significant than usual.
Even though he had several copied skills, they weren't his own, and he could only use them three times.
After entering Panagea, he didn't need to worry about skills since he could buy the skills there. And as the store owner, he would automatically get those skills in the real world. But Aakesh was currently a low-level in the Panagea, and he could only get low-level skills.
The skill SandPort that helped him kill a Level 50 was useless in the real world. Here, Aakesh could turn trillions of miles of radius around him into a desert, lava, or any element if he wanted and could cover an even larger distance in less than a second, let alone 100 meters of radius.
And especially the skill would be a reward from the system, so he was confident that it would be one of the most powerful skills of the Primal dimension, if not the best.
Since the reward was currently far from Aakesh, he stopped thinking about it and focused on the last section of the quest screen.
"A thousand years!" Aakesh couldn't help but exclaim in shock, seeing the failure punishment.
He had been with the system for tens of thousands of years and had done tens of quests. During these years, he hadn't failed a single quest, so he never received a punishment, but still, the harshest punishment offered by any mission he had received was taking away his room. But here, if he failed, the store would shut down for a thousand years, and if the store would shut down, it basically meant that he would be there too.
As for the punishment of a decrease in level, Aakesh didn't worry since he was in the system's protection. Even if he failed, the protection duration for him would only increase more than he wanted.
Since there was no time requirement for the quest, he stopped thinking about it for now. Even if he had the system's help, he couldn't just force his way into an organization he knew nothing about.
He had several Immortal customers. He would ask them about the organization and then make his plans regarding the quest.
Next, Aakesh waved his hands, and the quest screen dispersed into light particles. His eyes then fell on the portal room.
Today was the day he had decided to rescue Lily and kill the wolf king, so he took a step in the direction of the room.
But his steps came to a sudden halt as a smile appeared on his face.
"Leave the strongest alive and kill all the others," Aakesh requested to the system.
The system just alerted him that 110 Immortals are trying to breach the restriction of the store.
Aakesh was thinking about asking his customers for the information related to the organization a moment earlier, but now that intruders have arrived, how could he not ask them themselves about their organization.
The system didn't speak anything in response to Aakesh's request, and the next moment, with a thud sound, a body crashed on the ground.
It wasn't a human, but an Elf that had crashed on the floor. Black hair, black eyes, and black skin told Aakesh the race of the Elf.
It was a Dark Elf. An invisible rope had bounded his legs and hands.
The Elf was a complete Maharathi warrior of the warrior system, and he had an embryo of the divine physique.
Aakesh didn't care much about the cultivation level of the Elf since even a Void Beast wouldn't be able to do anything inside the store.
Aakesh waved his hands, and the next moment, invisible energy picked the Elf up and brought him up to his height.
Aakesh looked into the eyes of the Elf and saw an expression of fearlessness from it. He shook his head in disappointment, seeing the foolishness of not knowing the difference of power despite reaching such a high level in cultivation.
The Elf glared at Aakesh after he got hold of him, but Aakesh didn't care. His eyes suddenly turned darker. The Elf subconsciously wanted to move his eyes away, but the system didn't allow it, and soon his eyes turned lifeless.
Aakesh then released the man, and he crashed again on the floor.
Aakesh had no interest in asking any questions about the organization from the Elf. He instead forced him to an Illusion, where he would spill out his entire life on his own. Why would he ask or torture the Elf when he could get whatever answers he wanted without much effort?
Since the Elf was a complete Maharathi warrior, he would have lived for tens of thousands of years, if not millions and billions. Aakesh didn't have any interest in learning the story of the Elf, even when it wouldn't take more than a few seconds in the actual world.
"Hey, system, kill this man after he spills out his entire life story, and then tell me all the information related to the organization he had," Aakesh then told the system. Why would he do the work on his own if the system was there to do it?
[Okay, Host!]
The system responded and accepted Aakesh's command.
Aakesh nodded, left the man lying lifelessly on the ground, and proceeded to the portal room.
After entering the portal room, his eyes fell upon the ranking leaderboard. He noticed that he was still a Level 32 when he had completed the quest and gained a reward of five levels increase.
"It must be due to that golden screen." Aakesh thought and then touched the nearest portal.
The next moment, a suction force stronger than any force in the Primal dimension appeared and sucked him inside. Aakesh disappeared from the store and appeared in Panagea in the same place he had left just this morning.
There were still two windows floating in front of him, one golden and one blue.
Even if Aakesh wanted, he couldn't check the blue screen first, so he had no choice but to read the contents of the golden screen first.
He then focused on the screen and couldn't help but get surprised by what he read.
