Chapter 154: Exchanging Merit Points for Weapons
The recovery of her once lost memories revealed the atrocities the heads of the Human Trafficking Group committed against her in her past life.
Even if the human traffickers didn’t come after her, she was determined to find them.
She wanted revenge!
The incident on the train also reminded Mengyu to stay vigilant at all times.
Looking back, she found it strange; she had told Gu Dongxing about the human traffickers’ hideout, and he was the only one who knew about it. How did the traffickers find out?
Considering that Gu Dongxing mentioned the Jiang Family had a powerful backer, Jiang Haidong and Li Chunhua had bought her as a child and sold her when she grew up, yet they faced no consequences.
As for Jiang Huaiyu, who had impersonated her to attend university, even after being exposed, she was still able to return to the high school in the county town as if nothing had happened.
All these made Mengyu involuntarily cautious.
She must accelerate her cultivation speed, even if it meant consuming Pills.
She now somewhat regretted using all her Essence Value to expand her space.
Xiao Tao sensed her mood and directly asked, "Master, do you want to exchange for second-level Pills?"
Mengyu responded grudgingly, "All my Essence Value was used to expand the space, where do I get the points to exchange for second-level Pills?"
She had purchased two Yuan Nourishing Pills, one Healing Elixir, and one Detoxification Pill, which nearly exhausted her Learning Value.
"Master, you have no Essence Value left, but you have Merit Points!"
"Merit Points? I have Merit Points?"
"Didn’t I tell you, master? Previously, you asked Gu Dongxing to rescue those abducted women and raid the traffickers’ den, which earned you one hundred sixty Merit Points."
"What?" Mengyu was overjoyed. One Merit Point could be exchanged for one hundred Essence Value points; one hundred Merit Points equaled ten thousand Essence Value points!
"Moreover, master, today you caught three human traffickers, earning one hundred twenty Merit Points, and rescued a boy, which gave you ten Merit Points. In total, you have one hundred thirty Merit Points now."
Mengyu wondered, "Why is catching three human traffickers worth one hundred twenty-six Merit Points, while saving one person is only worth ten points?"
Xiao Tao scornfully explained, "Master, you’ve forgotten again. Each good deed earns Merit Points based on its significance, but saving a person always counts as ten Merit Points.
You caught three traffickers, who, if not caught, would have abducted twenty-four women and children."
Mengyu understood, "Today, by catching them, I cut off their route for trafficking women, which is similar to rescuing the potential victims.
But twenty-four women should count as two hundred forty Merit Points, why is it only one hundred twenty?" "That’s because the events haven’t happened yet and other outcomes are possible. Thus, your Merit Points are half-valued, amounting to one hundred twenty."
"I see." Mengyu still felt excited inside, with so many Merit Points, she could now exchange for even higher-level Pills!
But then, Xiao Tao added, "However—"
"What now?"
"Master, Merit Points can be exchanged for weapons!"
Mengyu didn’t take it seriously, "Isn’t it just ten points for a Magic Artifact?"
Xiao Tao informed, "Master, ten Merit Points get you a Low-Grade Magical Artifact, a Mid-Grade Magical Artifact costs one hundred Merit Points, a High-Grade Magical Artifact costs one thousand Merit Points, and a Top-Grade Magical Artifact costs ten thousand Merit Points."
Mengyu almost choked: after all she had been through earning two hundred ninety Merit Points, she still couldn’t get even one High-Grade Magical Artifact?
