Hundred Times Income Multiplier System - Chapter 598: The Next Issue

“Are you serious about this?” With some hesitation, Wade asked. He was wondering if Jack was trying to play a prank on him or not.

“Of course I am serious about this. You can just give me the information about the ace group. And other than that, I would like several medicines that can be used in advancing the power level of a superhuman. If possible, I would want to get one that is capable of affecting a level 9 superhuman, no matter how little the effect is.” Jack responded seriously.

Wade was not the only one who was surprised by what Jack had said. But instead, those that were in the know about what was present inside that box could not believe it.

It might be true that just as Jack had said before, owning that ability crystal bead was something that was going to cause trouble if information about it was leaked. But still, possessing it was something that gave a person hope that they would be able to gain the spatiokinesis ability as long as they gain a method of activating it, before processing it into a serum.

Wade took a deep breath and contemplated on the matter. After a while, he came to a decision. “What about this, whatever it is that you want to exchange with for the contents of that box, I’m going to give it for free.” Wade stated as he looked at Jack sincerely.

When Ezekiel heard what Wade had said, he could not help but be dumbfounded. This was completely against his expectations, considering that he believed that inside the box that the group was talking about, there was another batch of solutions.

With those solutions, although he himself was not going use them, but still, there were other people that were in the family that were capable of using them. If all of them managed to gain the solution, they would definitely have a boost in strength.

At that time, even the enemy that they possess currently would definitely fear them. Although they could not completely annihilate them, but still, it was not impossible to be able to gain the resources that they were controlling in the stronghold.

It might be true that the presence of the solution might not guarantee that they would be able to overpower the ace group. But still, who said that they had to overpower them? As long as they were strong enough, he was sure that even the ace group would have to think choice before it decided to make a move against them.

That kind of guarantee was something that Ezekiel was always looking for. And right now, he failed to understand why Wade was making a decision like this. Wasn’t this an offer, something that had been offered directly to him?

But since it was Wade who had decided on the matter, he decided not to talk about it. He was going to ask him about it later on. Of course, he could not question the authority that Wade possessed in the family in front of a person who did not belong to the Storm family.

So, he had decided that after Jack left, he was going to ask Wade about the reason for his decision. Of course, he did not believe that Wade was going to make a stupid decision just like that. There had to be a good reason behind why he was doing this.

Jack on the other hand raised his brows. He had not expected that Wade was going to make a move like this. Of course, he immediately understood what Wade was aiming for.

“There’s no need for that. You can just give me what I want, so that we can complete the transaction.” Jack shook his head as he responded. Of course there was no way that he was going to agree to owe a person a favor.

For a person like him, owing other people favors was definitely something like a shackle on his neck. In the future, he might be asked to return the favor, and it might be something that he did not want to do, but would not have a choice but to do it because he owed them the favor.

Since he was a person that wanted freedom, why would he want to be tied to something? There was no way that was going to agree to something like that, so, it was better for them to complete a business transaction, a complete exchange where there was nothing that he owed the other party first.

When he heard what Jack had said, Wade immediately understood that Jack had already caught up to what he was trying to imply by offering to give what Jack wanted for free.

Since he was a smart person, he did not try to insist. He had already realized that Jack was definitely not a person that was going to be easily fooled, and neither was he easy to rope in.

“Okay then. We will complete the transaction. But still, in case in the future you need something from us, you can come back and ask for it. If it is something that I can do, I’ll help you with it as long as it doesn’t affect my family adversely.” Wade nodded his head as he responded.

Immediately after that, he turned around and looked at Ruth. Ruth immediately understood the message. Since she was present entire time, she understood what was going on. So, she decided to go and bring several items that were having the same value as the ability crystal bead.

But of course, there was no way that they possessed something that was of the same value directly. So, she was going to bring several items at the same time that if combined together, the value would be capable of closing in to the value of the ability crystal bead.

Ezekiel on the other hand did not leave. Instead, he decided to remain here, wondering what kind of transaction was going on between Wade and Jack. From what he could see, it was not as if Wade and Jack were quite familiar with each other.

Just from the way that they were treating each other, it was clear that they were just getting to know each other. So, he was wondering what kind of background Jack possessed that he was capable of bringing the solutions, and other than that, he was capable of making Wade try to create a friendship between them.

Sylvia and Alicia did not say anything. The two of them had already learnt that they were not supposed to be speaking in such an occasion, unless necessary. And right now, there was nothing that they could talk about in this transaction that Jack was making with Wade. So, they decided to remain silent as they observed from the side.

But of course, the one who was the most confused was definitely Sylvia. She had already known about Jack for a while now. But until now, she had never found him making any wrong decision.

Every time that he did something, there had to be a reason behind that. And right now, although it seemed that Jack was going to be the one that was going to lose, Sylvia was pretty sure that he definitely had a reason behind why he wanted to exchange the ability crystal bead.

At the end of the day, why would Jack just decide to exchange for resources that are capable of affecting superhumans, using an ability crystal bead, when he had just given away a solution that was capable of improving the strength of a superhuman directly?

Unless he wanted to nurture a large group of people, there was absolutely no reason behind why he was going to agree to something like this. At the end of the day, it might be true that what he was going to receive was going to be an accumulated value of the same level as the ability crystal bead, but still, in reality, the value of the ability crystal bead was higher.

After about 10 minutes, Ruth finally came back with a box of items. Of course, each item was well preserved inside their own casing. After she brought the box over, she placed it on top of the table, in front of Jack.

Jack did not need to look into the box before he realized what it was. It seemed that Ruth had decided to give him a single type of item. This was due to the system prompt that he had received Immediately after the box was brought over.

As expected, Ruth spoke next. “The items inside there are actually pills. Those pills are capable of improving the speed at which a person is capable of training, and it affects even level 9 superhumans. There are a total of three bottles, and each bottle contains 20 pills. So in total, there are 60 pills.”

Ruth was not sure if Jack wanted the same item. So, the moment that she brought them over, she decided to tell him about it in advance. At the same time, it was not just a simple decision that she had made.

To say the truth, those pills were the highest level of medication that they possessed in the Storm family that were capable of affecting even level 9 superhumans. .

Not only were the pills quite rare, but they were expensive as well. So, it was not that easy for the Storm family to be able to acquire them. But still, comparing the value of those pills to the ability crystal bead, the value of the pills fell short.

Ezekiel on the other hand had already taken a seat on one of the couches. Has he observed the transaction, he thought that this time, the Storm family was definitely not going to suffer any loss.

It might be true that the value of the pills was quite high, but still, as compared to gaining a level 9 superhuman in just a matter of minutes, the pills were quite valueless.

“Okay. Now that the business transaction is done, I have something else that we need to take care of.” Jack stated as he rested his back on the couch. At the same time as he was speaking, he finally looked towards the direction of Alicia.
