Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168: Chapter 168: Medicine Gift Package, Background of the Dark Apocalypse

Over the next few days.

Aside from occasionally participating in peripheral patrols or coordinated defense missions, Seraphina Sullivan, Dustin Sullivan, and the others found themselves with a surprising amount of free time.

It was so safe inside the Shelter that one could almost forget they were in an apocalyptic dungeon.

However, Seraphina didn’t stay idle. She used this rare period of stability to focus on the side quest she had accepted earlier: [Side Quest: Collect the blood of ten different night monsters].

’I can’t believe I didn’t have to hunt for the last few types of blood myself. I could get them all right here in the Shelter.’

Seraphina couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional.

They had already collected the blood of several monsters outside the Shelter.

And inside the Shelter, because teams were frequently organized to go out and clear monsters, many corpses and materials from various night monsters could be found.

Leveraging her status as a collaborator and trading a few supplies, Seraphina easily acquired the remaining monster corpses and blood samples needed for her quest.

As the tenth type of blood dripped into the special collection vial, the familiar system notification sounded right on cue:

[DING! Congratulations, Player, you have completed the side quest: Collect the blood of ten different night monsters.]

[Quest Reward: Medicine Gift Package.]

Seraphina opened the package.

She examined the so-called "Medicine Gift Package."

Inside, five vials of different colors were neatly arranged, each labeled with a simple description:

A scarlet [Power Amplification Potion]

An azure [Agility Enhancement Potion]

A dark green [Regeneration Healing Potion]

An ochre [Toughness Protection Potion]

And a faintly shimmering [Spirit Recovery Potion].

Although the types were basic, they covered attack, speed, healing, defense, and spirit recovery, making them quite practical.

Seraphina casually picked a potion with a faint purple sheen from the Medicine Gift Package and examined it closely.

[Spirit Recovery Potion]

Effect: After consumption, the user’s spiritual power will continuously and slowly recover over one hour, replenishing what was spent. The effect ends after one hour.

After reading the effect’s description, Seraphina subconsciously pursed her lips, a flicker of barely perceptible disappointment crossing her mind.

’It’s only a temporary recovery... I thought it would be a potion that permanently increases my maximum spiritual power.’

The moment the thought surfaced, Seraphina herself was taken aback. Then, she laughed at herself and gently patted her cheeks.

’Heh, Seraphina, oh, Seraphina. You’ve gotten too comfortable with these peaceful days, haven’t you? Getting a big head? This is a life-saving potion that can quickly restore your mana in a critical moment, and you’re actually complaining?’

She took a deep breath, suppressing the restlessness that had grown from her comfortable life.

Seraphina realized that the relatively stable life inside the Fireseed Shelter these past few days—a life where she didn’t have to be constantly on edge just to survive—had unknowingly made her a little too relaxed, even giving her an unrealistic sense of security.

She had to be vigilant, even in times of peace.

Seraphina knew perfectly well that the system would never let them get by so easily.
