Why are the aether points so ridiculously undervalued all of a sudden? For example the shop feature - Charge 200 times something + 20mil after only the second ordeal? What about the 10th ordeal? Will things cost a Google? Anyone with half a mind understands that Aether points will just become something absolutely irrelevant and probably replaced by another currency within 100 chapters. Let's just recap on that. It costs him 200 times as much to buy an item from wherever he is; and only items that cost him millions are probably useful to him at all. This means that he'll have to spend BILLIONS of points to get anything at all relevant or useful to him in any way when using the skill. Heal? 2000x the cost? The dude can already regrow his whole body, and it's gonna get much stronger as time goes on. Yet he finds it intelligent to get a "Heal" which he in no way can use as he can't even afford the treatment to begin with. The super smart guy who didn't trust the oracle just suddenly decided to get every useless and overpriced product it had to sell when he could've bought things that increased his power, diversity or knowledge. I seriously start to doubt you Author. The last ordeal was pretty bad, and the rewards etc were weak bullshit.
Well the point of it is quite understood, the problem is the multiplier and thus forced future scale. This novel won't end for a good couple thousand chapters and if we're scaling the currency into soon to be trillions at this current stage, we will end up with going from unimaginable numbers that we currently have - to numbers that a vast majority of the population including your reader base hasn't even heard of in 2-3 ordeals time. That means that you will at some point convert Aether Points into "Aether Chunks" (1B AP = 1 AC) as is usually done with spirit stones in xianxia novels. I just don't see the point of inflating numbers to the power of 10, nor the point of having a "plot convenience" tool like the instaheal - A tool which is planned to be used to put the MC in a really shitty situation and used very likely only once; which in turn will definitely empty all of his aether but be a "good choice" in hindsight. I have a problem with "things like this" due to my full understanding that it's not the "MC choices" that matter, but the way the Author will write future situations that do. The "MC choices" here didn't make any sense whatsoever considering both mathematics, uncertainties and his quite obvious inclination towards relying less on "Oracle" and more on "HImself".
Arkinslize:The Oracle Heal can heal you "instantly" and "perfectly". Most of all you have one free heal for each Ordeal. Imo it's a must have for Ordeals no matter how you look at this. It's not meant to be used on B842. It's especially because these skills are too expensive with Aether that he has to depend on his Ordeal rating/credits to buy them. So improving his chances to perform better at the next Ordeals is certainly the right move.
ok I'm just confused and kinda heartbroken from ruby. but if Jake doesn't at least have a relationship with Sarah for a good period time, I would be disappointed again đ. I would like to see that in the future, after like 500 to 800 chapters, ruby and Jake somehow get together. but I would like to see multiple relationship that end after 100 to 200 chapters. it would be cool to see his love life change. like how most people don't find the right person, right away.
so I have a feeling that Ruby done what she did to make Jake lack trust in the govourning body of the New Earth because she doesnt want him to be a puppet to them like she seemingly is. it was also likely to be a Coach mission from the Oracle that had her do what she did otherwise, when you betray someone like that, usually you go all the way and take everything, money, the wallet, the ID, and everything else you might want from the body of the dead or defeated.
Thanks for the chapter! Also Question!!! Did AD adding the AS skills reduce the amount of alloy in Jake's device? If so how much is left (and at the same time how much space in his storage does he have, because it depends on the alloy amount?) and does the reduced weight impacts Jake positively in any way (like reducing the burden)? Also I know I asked (because I'm a curious person), but if the answers contain spoilers I'm perfectly fine not receiving any (it's always up to the author in my opinion :) ).
