Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Reward, I Want to Be Like You

Seraphina Sullivan simply maintained a faint smile and did not answer Isaac Ingram’s question.

She was mindful of the System’s rules: she could not proactively reveal the existence of "Players" or the "System" to the Native People within the instance.

However, if the Native People were to speculate and figure it out on their own based on the available evidence, it wouldn’t count as a violation on her part.

Seraphina already knew the System wouldn’t punish her for exploiting this little loophole.

Meanwhile, Cole and Shane Ross didn’t overthink it the way Isaac Ingram did. Their faces were filled with excitement and hope.

Cole Ross asked urgently, "Miss Sullivan, are you saying that if we find and deal with that ’Petrification Star,’ these monsters, the Silenti, will lose their energy source and die? This damned Petrification Apocalypse will end? Our world will be safe again?"

She didn’t care where Seraphina Sullivan came from; she only cared if there was finally an end in sight for this hopeless disaster.

Seraphina Sullivan shook her head, offering no absolute guarantee. "Perhaps. But this is just my speculation; I can’t be one hundred percent certain. The Petrification Star is their Energy Core. In theory, destroying it or isolating it should deal a fatal blow to the Silenti and might even prevent new Petrification from occurring. But I can’t say for sure what the final outcome will be. I’m just a messenger."

However, the moment the words left her mouth—

[DING! Congratulations to Player Seraphina Sullivan for completing the Special Rescue Mission: [Dawnlight]!]

[You have successfully relayed key information about the ’Petrification Star’ to the surviving high-ranking Native People of this world and have gained their initial trust.]

[Mission Reward: One random treasure from ’Planet Silenti’. This has been recorded and will be distributed upon your return to Azure Star!]

The cold, mechanical voice of the System echoed punctually in Seraphina Sullivan’s mind, announcing the mission’s completion.

Seraphina felt a sense of certainty. ’The reward is in the bag!’

As for whether this world could ultimately be saved, that would depend on the Native People’s own efforts and fate.

Having received the system reward notification she wanted, Seraphina Sullivan felt there was no longer any need to remain in the underground Shelter.

This wasn’t her battlefield. Her objective was to survive for seven days and acquire as many resources as possible.

"I have told you everything I was supposed to. The rest is up to you," Seraphina Sullivan said calmly, preparing to turn and leave. "It’s time for me to go."

Hearing this, the young Shane Ross looked alarmed and confused. "Go? You... aren’t you here to save us? You have such incredible Power, why can’t you stay and help us eliminate those monsters?"

In his simple worldview, a powerful being like Seraphina Sullivan, who had appeared so suddenly, was supposed to play the role of a savior.

Seraphina Sullivan stopped and shook her head, her tone carrying a hint of imperceptible resignation.

"Of course I’m not here to save you. Just like you, I’m merely someone trying to survive in this dangerous world."

She kept her words brief and to the point, carefully avoiding terms like "Player" or "instance," fearing she might trigger an unpredictable punishment from the System and cause the instance’s difficulty to skyrocket.

Isaac Ingram immediately stepped forward, stopping Shane Ross before he could ask more questions. His gaze was stern, yet understanding. "That’s enough, Shane. This young lady has already given us crucial intelligence beyond our wildest dreams—the truth we haven’t been able to confirm for years! She has no obligation to fight for us. The only ones who can save this world have always been ourselves!"
