Chapter 599 Coin collector

Liam stared at the notifications unblinkingly. The dungeons were not yet active. This was something he expected but the surprising part was that he still received the dungeon bonus rewards? This was insane!

The screen quickly flickered and disappeared just as it had appeared, leaving Liam to wave his hand in the air. "Hmmm… Pause huh? This means I should receive my rewards once the tutorial shuts down?"

He could already see his stats insanely boosted when the world collapses. Everyone would be wondering what was happening, but he would have an unbelievable head start.

"Heh." Liam grinned. This was not one of the strategies he had planned for but it was simply too good to pass up!

He immediately began calculating all the possible dungeons he could hit up. After a few minutes, Liam was only able to mark ten locations on the map on his phone.

"Damn it. I have no idea where the rest are." He let out a sigh. He really only knew the dungeons in this area because his last life was spent within these boundaries. If he had been stronger, he would have explored more and known more places.

"Well, I can't change that so there is no point in thinking about that." He stood up, dusted his back, and once again continued walking forward instead of returning back to the village or the train station.

This was because this dungeon was not the only thing in this zone he came looking for. Liam took another route that led him out of the forest to a small clearing full of agricultural lands.

And in the distance, in the midst of these agricultural lands, there was a small shrine. "Is this the one?" Liam had no idea if he was right or wrong. These memories were unfortunately too vague.

"It should be here. I saw the group of people fighting over it in this area." He continued walking to the shrine passing through the deserted lands that contained lush crops only days away from becoming ready to harvest.

In the future, this area would also become one of the valuable areas for the guilds as the land's fertility was above average. However, Liam was not interested in purchasing these lands or anything foolish like that.

After the apocalypse, if he wanted it, he could simply take it. Liam still marked the place on the map as he arrived at the shrine.

It was just a small Buddhist shrine. There was nothing special about it.

The building was barely five feet wide with just a small stone statue inside. However, the thing that he was searching for was…

Liam looked around like a thief and seeing that no one was there, he summoned Crawford out. "Break that."

The soul minion immediately obeyed him. The stone statue shattered to bits the next instant. The job was done in a second!

Liam walked forward, rummaged through the rubbles, and soon fished out a small coin. His eyes instantly lit up.

He rubbed the dirt on the coin and just like he expected it became golden in color.

"It really is here!" He examined the coin closely, unable to contain the excitement.

There was no description of the coin or any other notification popping out but Liam knew that this was it. This was because, on the coin, a number was carved, the number 34. This confirmed everything.

This was the coin he had come here for and he had found it!

"Lucky coin 34!" Liam gulped. A very simple item that gave plus one luck. Nothing less nothing more.

However, in his last life, four guilds had fought with each other for this same coin, losing so many resources and manpower.

This was because, with only one coin, the luck attribute increased by just one but with two coins this value became four times. If he had three coins, the value would become nine times, and so on.

Liam knew this because the Gu family had possessed four of these coins after expending quite a lot of effort and now he had simply walked over and taken one for himself.

So many things were happening at the moment but Liam still couldn't help smiling at this coin. Having in-game knowledge was one thing but having knowledge of these artifacts… now he was simply cheating.

With a wide grin, he quickly pocketed the golden coin and then fled the crime scene after dismissing Crawford. Now that he had confirmed these two important points, he needed to do some work.

Dungeons could be discovered for extra stat points and artifacts already existed!

This was huge news! Too bad Liam only knew of a few important spots but this was more than good enough to get started.

He took out his phone and sent a message to the group saying that he would need some more time. Liam then began to leave the small village to return back to the train station.

He was browsing through the local map to see if anything jogged his memory and if anything could be a dungeon.

"The next one should be three stations away, near the old city. Would probably take four more hours by train." Liam did the math and got onto the train for the next location.

He once again spent the downtime meditating and getting his real body getting more accustomed to mana.

He was tossing the coin up and down repeatedly as he gazed out the window without thinking about anything in particular. There were too many developments as of late, some of them good, some of them puzzling.

Things were slowly getting more and more out of control and Liam could already feel the overwhelming devastating pressure of the guillotine hanging over everyone's necks.

Would he really be able to swim and not sink this time around?

Just as he was thinking about this, the coin in his hand flipped and slipped and landed down on the moving train rolling away from him.

But before Liam could jump forward and grab the rolling coin, a wisp of shiny stardust appeared as a familiar creature jumped out from him.

"Violet?" Liam gaped in shock.

The little rabbit dashed ahead and caught the coin in her mouth and returned back to him all in the span of a fraction of a second. She then again disappeared.

Liam on the other hand stared at the coin in his hand, his lips curling upwards. When it rains it pours! It seems one more thing was now in his favor!

This little rabbit could already be summoned out in the real world.

Just to make sure, Liam called the little thing once again. Instantly, the rabbit appeared on his lap and blinked at him dazedly.

Her fur was grey in color and her little innocent eyes twinkled like the stars. Her whole body was shimmering with a hazy glow.

"Violet," Liam muttered as he watched the rabbit nudge against him and rub her head on him asking for attention.

Liam on the other hand dismissed her immediately. It was far too dangerous to let this little rabbit be seen by others. After all, they were on a public train at the moment even though, Liam's compartment was empty.

He was also remembered of a certain fox who was still struggling inside the game.

He had no idea how to deal with that little creature and her injury this time. In fact, every time she got hurt, he was completely helpless.

Liam's smile disappeared. He placed the coin back carefully and again went back to doing his breathing exercises. "Should I really pay a visit to that grandmaster? Is there no other way?"

He gazed outside the window as the train silently continued zooming forward. About an hour later, an important landmark arrived, the future base of the Gu family.

In fact, this whole area was under their control until the news of the slave trading spread, and their guild slowly crumbled from the inside.

Liam never knew why it happened or what caused it. He had simply run for his life as soon as the guild collapsed and the contracts became null and void. Old memories flashed past his mind as he reminisced about this.

"Why did they even set up their base here?" He suddenly wondered gazing at the barren lands that had just a few patches of trees here and there.

Logically this was a bad spot to set up camp. The best place would be the city itself like how Liam was currently planning to set up their base.

Then why did they set up here?

Just as he was thinking about this, suddenly a thought entered his mind. Perhaps there was a dungeon or artifact here?

Or maybe there was something special about this place that allowed the Gu family to shoot up to power so much so that the government here started cooperating with them.

There were too many possibilities.

The train soon arrived at the station for this zone and Liam found himself stepping down even though this was not what he had planned for originally.
