Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 605: Chapter 93: Compensation?

[The Solo Battle has ended.]

[Result: Victory.]

[Twelve consecutive wins!]

[Hunter ranking increased, from 2255 to 2110.]

Su Xiao sat cross-legged in the resting pod, took out a timer, which showed 71 hours and 52 minutes, with only 8 minutes left before returning to the real world. Clearly, there wasn’t enough time for another match.

He began to wait for the return to the real world, and the 8 minutes passed in a flash.

[The Hunter’s stay in Reincarnation Paradise has reached its limit.]

[Detected that after the Hunter advanced to the Second Tier, having successfully passed the first Derivative World, the time conversion function has been activated.]

[Hint: The Hunter can convert time stayed in the real world into time stayed in Reincarnation Paradise, with a maximum conversion ratio of 1/2.]

Upon seeing this prompt, a smile appeared on Su Xiao’s face. After passing the first Derivative World at the Second Tier, he could actually convert his stay time in the real world into Reincarnation Paradise time.

The time spent in Reincarnation Paradise is precious, and of course, the more the better, as he can fight in the Arena or sell Alchemy Bombs here.

Not only that, he can browse the trading market during his free time to see if there’s anything good.

In the real world, he would merely watch anime or wander around, but in Reincarnation Paradise, he could gradually become stronger.

Without hesitation, Su Xiao converted, increasing his stay time in Reincarnation Paradise from 0 seconds to 84 hours, allowing him to continue his stay there.

The stay time more than doubled, making Su Xiao ponder.

The higher the tier, the longer the stay in Reincarnation Paradise should be. People like him, who have few attachments in the real world, would choose to stay in Reincarnation Paradise.

This way, there would be fewer Contractors in the real world, and with various regulations, the interference of Contractors in the real world wouldn’t be as significant as imagined.

The real world is different from the Derivative World; the real world is quite special to Reincarnation Paradise. If any issue arises in the real world, it will affect Reincarnation Paradise’s selection of new Contractors, leading to a vicious cycle.

Lighting a cigarette, Su Xiao no longer dwelled on these issues. Even though his stay time increased, he had to cherish this precious time.

Dragging his fatigued body out of the Arena, even though many Contractors returned to the real world, Reincarnation Paradise remained bustling with lots of Workers and above First Tier Contractors.

Su Xiao’s life in Reincarnation Paradise was very regular. Besides rest, he spent most of his time at the trading market, Trial Field, and Arena, with the Arena taking up the majority.

When his Mana Value fully recovered, Su Xiao would manufacture Intermediate Alchemy Bombs to sell at the trading market, which provided a considerable income.

The happiest about being able to stay longer in Reincarnation Paradise was Bubu Wang.

This guy’s life was quite enjoyable. According to Su Xiao’s observation, Bubu Wang had the same rest time as him. Upon waking up, the first thing he did was have a big meal, then sit at an ice cream shop, and sometimes go to the Equipment Strengthening Hall to watch the expressions of Contractors, which was Bubu Wang’s odd hobby.

Bubu Wang spent most of his time eating and sleeping. Recently, this creature’s fur became shinier, and his body unexpectedly grew a circle larger.

In a private room, Su Xiao stared at Bubu Wang, who sighed and occasionally glanced at the treadmill beside him.

”You’ve gained 20 pounds recently. It’s time to lose some weight.”

”Woo～”

Bubu Wang howled, his eyes seemed to be saying, ”Master, I’m a lone wolf from the north, gaining weight to resist the severe cold. Please listen to my explanation.”

”Are you going to run or not?”

Su Xiao took out a specially made large slipper size 64, making Bubu Wang instinctively lower his body in anxiety but still pretending to be calm.

After hesitating for a moment, Bubu Wang got on the large treadmill and started running weakly.

Su Xiao nodded, instructed Bubu Wang not to slack off, and then left the private room.

Bubu Wang sighed. Although he was lazy, he never slacked off on the tasks Su Xiao assigned, so he gritted his teeth and ran diligently.

...

At the trading market, Su Xiao sat behind a stall with many Intermediate Alchemy Bombs displayed.

After refusing one Contractor’s bargaining, he picked up a tablet to play a puzzle game.

Half an hour later, he vaguely felt someone standing in front of the stall; he didn’t look up as it was normal for people to stand in front of the stall.

”Bai Ye, you’re really hard to find.”

Su Xiao paused the game, and the character in the game died.

Looking up, a man in a gray suit stood in front of the stall. The man’s strong muscles were straining against the suit, and a scar stretched from his cheek to his neck like an ugly centipede on his face.

”And you are?”

Su Xiao didn’t recognize the person; he had never seen him before.

”Hello, my name is Stan.”

”Stan?”

Su Xiao tried hard to recall the name and suddenly thought of the Head of the Blood Gate Adventure Group, Stan.

”Sounds familiar... Are you the Head of the Blood Gate Adventure Group? Anything you need from me?”

Su Xiao remained calm, not showing any flaws. He had killed members of the Blood Gate Adventure Group during his initial fight with Jiraiya.

”Of course, take a look at this.”

Stan handed over a projection device showing first-person combat footage, with significant shakes in the image.

The video was filled with the sound of explosions as Deidara raced on a Clay bird, and in the distant sky, a man was aiming a sniper rifle, who was Su Xiao.

After a few more shots, the video’s angle aligned with the ground, and the shaking ceased.

”This is the reason I found you. The person you killed was named Zimo, a seed member of Blood Gate. I know your mission conflicted, but that’s not important.”

While speaking, Stan took out a pack of cigarettes, offered Su Xiao one after taking two.

Su Xiao smiled but didn’t take the cigarette. It’s wise not to touch the enemy’s items, especially in Reincarnation Paradise.

Stan chuckled and threw the cigarette on the ground before lighting the one in his mouth.

”Friend, your sniping ability is commendable.”

Stan evaluated Su Xiao from head to toe.

”Did you come to seek revenge?”

”Of course not. If I were to seek revenge, I wouldn’t show up.”

”Then what for?”

Su Xiao found the matter interesting; unlike films he’d seen, this ’avenger’ was polite.

”I came to seek compensation. You should know that nurturing a seed member requires a lot of resources. A dead person has no value, and Zimo’s death just proves his inadequacy.”

While speaking, Stan touched the scar on his face.

”Previously, I considered avenging myself on you, but considering your strength, sending ordinary subordinates wouldn’t kill you, and it would incur various expenses. Therefore, seeking compensation from you for Zimo’s death is the wisest choice.”

Hearing Stan’s words, Su Xiao’s smile broadened.

Stan was not to be underestimated; he possessed formidable combat skills and intellect.

”Oh right, we have some connection from before. Do you recall an armored vehicle in the Trial World? After Master Iron’s death, my subordinates started investigating and heard your name, but that incident had nothing to do with you, so we didn’t come for you then. Now, it seems we might be natural nemeses.”

Both were smiling, but there were hidden tensions. Stan didn’t utter a single harsh word — he considered useless threats to be mindless.

”Getting back to the topic, I spent around 500,000 Paradise coins on nurturing Zimo. Considering the price difference and your financial capability, you should compensate 100,000 Paradise coins. After that, Blood Gate won’t bother you. If you wish to join, you’re welcome as well.”

A dead person has no value; Stan nurtured Zimo because of his talent. It’s business, unrelated to personal feelings.
