Half an hour later, the group left the underground sixth floor.

Inside the elevator, Gao Yang asked War Tiger, “What can the jinwu currency buy, Teacher?”

“Oh, you know about it?” War Tiger sounded surprised. “You sure are studious.”

He gave a brief introduction to the currency, which was pretty much what Liu Qingying had told him.

“Most of the time, the coins are used for trades, and the commodities can be put into four categories. What are they, Wu Dahai?”

Wu Dahai cocked his head and answered with some irritation, “Medicines, equipment, items, and intel.”

“Medicines?” Officer Huang asked. “Those can be bought with money.” This chapter made its debut appearance via noooveeelll biiiiiinnnn.

“Not regular medicines, you idiot,” Wu Dahai said with a scoff. “It’s medicines specifically for awakeners, and they are potent!”

“Now, let’s talk items. They’re like medicines, only they are made differently. Most items are objects awakeners have injected their Talents into for particular situations.”

“Sleep gas is an example. Regular sleep gas doesn’t really work on awakeners, but if Songstress imbues a sleep gas grenade with Requiem, the effectiveness will grow tenfold.”

Gao Yang, Qing Ling, and Officer Huang looked thoughtful.

“Don’t underestimate items. When facing an enemy at the same level as you, the key that determines the victor will be your items and how you use them.”

“Last but not least, intel. With something like information, it can be worth nothing or everything. There’s intel on your rivals, on the whereabouts of Rune Circuits, on the Mist World, on monsters, and on the Spectres.”

War Tiger threw Wu Dahai a glance. “This kid saves up 2000 jinwus and posted a bounty for information on the Element Rune Circuit to the Walled City of Ten Dragons’ forum, but so far, no one has responded.”

Gao Yang didn’t say anything.

Liu Qingying wanted information from him, and the cunning woman offered 4 jinwu for each piece of information. As a newcomer into the world of awakeners, he would suffer great losses if he didn’t know how valuable the information he held was.

Fortunately, he could choose to give or not give her the information.

He had to quickly learn the ways of this brand new world and turn himself from a newbie to a bigshot. Even if he couldn’t be that, he had to at least be a shrewd senior!
