Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 110

Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Mission: The Silenti’s Nest

Seraphina Sullivan sat on the bed, rubbing her eyes. Her mind buzzed as if it had been forcibly rebooted, leaving her completely bewildered.

’This... I can actually trigger a quest mid-way through? It seems this Petrification Apocalypse instance is different from the ones I’ve experienced before—the mechanics are more complex.’ She carefully mulled over the system notification.

She figured this might be why the Petrification Apocalypse instance only started with the main quest, "Survive for seven days." All the other quests had to be triggered.

’What are the conditions for triggering a quest? Or do I need to meet some specific criteria?’

However, when she saw the quest reward...

...that Treasure Chests would be awarded based on the number of items recovered, Seraphina’s confusion was instantly replaced by delight!

’Treasure Chests! The reward is actually Treasure Chests!’ Seraphina’s eyes lit up in the darkness.

She immediately recalled the Treasure Chest she had gotten in The Insect Frenzy instance.

The special card she’d found inside it had an incredible effect.

Treasure Chests meant high-Quality rewards, ones that could potentially surpass the level of the current instance. The allure was immense!

’It’s just a matter of collecting those petrifying Imps, right? Let’s get to it!’ Wealth was a powerful motivator, especially when it came to an opportunity that could directly increase her strength.

Seraphina’s sleepiness vanished in an instant, replaced by a surge of fighting spirit.

But after the initial excitement, her reason quickly returned.

She quickly analyzed the situation. "The quest only lasts for seven days, and one day has already passed. The Silenti are extremely dangerous. Their individual combat strength isn’t high, but their Petrifying Light is almost impossible to counter, and they usually travel in groups. Killing them will be incredibly difficult and risky..."

Just as she was contemplating their strategy, Sean Chandler, who had been standing guard in silence, suddenly spoke up, his voice calm. "Perfect. We can use this opportunity to test my earlier theory—whether these Silenti truly ignore my animal form."

"That’s right!" Seraphina clapped her hands and looked at Sean Chandler.

"If the Silenti really only attack humans, then your animal form is the perfect cover! It’ll make this quest so much easier! Let’s go! We’re leaving now!"

Time was short, and opportunity existed alongside risk.

Seraphina didn’t hesitate for a moment and acted immediately.

She quickly recalled the RV and Flora into the Space of her Scavenging Backpack, her movements clean and efficient.

The two of them silently slipped out from their hiding spot under the bridge, stepping back into the petrified city shrouded in darkness and danger.

Visibility was even lower at night, and the faint, hissing cries that occasionally echoed in the distance sounded all the clearer and more unsettling.

But now, the apprehension Seraphina had felt before was gone, replaced by the excitement and caution of a hunter.

Seraphina focused, using her Bird Manipulation Skill to send the little sparrow back into the night sky to act as her high-altitude Scout.

However, the sparrow’s night vision was limited. In the thick darkness, the view it sent back was blurry, allowing her to only barely make out general outlines and moving shadows. This drastically reduced her search efficiency.

’If only I had an owl or some other nocturnal bird...’ Seraphina couldn’t help but think with a sigh.

...

Meanwhile, with the announcement of the special quest, the undercurrents within the instance quietly shifted.

Some Players, who might have originally been plotting to kill others for their loot, temporarily suppressed their malicious thoughts after hearing about the Treasure Chest reward. They all turned their attention toward the dangerous, petrifying monsters instead.

After all, compared to the high-risk, uncertain rewards of fighting other Players, the system’s explicitly offered Treasure Chests were far more appealing.
