Mud tried to lighten the mood with a casual tone, smiling at Vivian and saying, "Of course... of course, Sis, we've already marked the spots in all the prominent places!" There was a hint of hope in his voice, hoping that this report would satisfy Vivian and at least slightly reduce her anger.
Vivian nodded in response, seemingly affirming Mud and Chuchan's efforts, but she didn't say much more. She just turned and walked to a sofa on the second floor. The indoor lighting was quite dim, with almost no light source other than a flickering candle in the corner, adding a mysterious and oppressive atmosphere to the room along with Vivian's silent presence.
Mud and Chuchan followed Vivian cautiously up to the second floor, standing opposite her on the sofa. They exchanged a glance, seemingly seeking support and encouragement from each other. However, faced with Vivian's cold and aloof figure, they dared not speak easily, only standing silently, filled with tension and uncertainty.
A heavy silence permeated the air, with only the flickering candlelight dancing around, casting long shadows of Mud and Chuchan. In this moment, time seemed to freeze, and their heartbeats sounded particularly clear in the stillness. They quietly waited for further instructions or questions from Vivian, while also silently praying in their hearts, hoping that everything would end peacefully.
Vivian withdrew her gaze from the ceiling and looked at the two standing there dumbfounded. Impatiently waving her hand, she commanded, "For heaven's sake, sit down!" Her voice, though not loud, was filled with unquestionable authority, making it impossible to disobey.
Mud and Chuchan exchanged a glance, then nodded and carefully walked to the chairs opposite Vivian's sofa, sitting down quietly. Their movements were cautious and slow, as if afraid of provoking Vivian's displeasure. Meanwhile, Vivian propped one leg up, casually placing her hands on the back of the sofa, gazing at the ceiling with a deep and complex expression on her face, as if contemplating some profound question.
Mud and Chuchan sat straight on the opposite chairs, both dared not make a sound, only quietly waiting for Vivian to speak. The atmosphere in the room was unusually heavy, time seemed to stand still, only the flickering of the candlelight around them, casting their shadows gently swaying on the wall.
Vivian's gaze finally moved away from the ceiling, she slowly lowered her head, her sharp eyes sweeping over Mud and Chuchan, although without words, the dignity and profundity in her eyes were enough to make anyone feel her extraordinary determination. On this tense and quiet night, the atmosphere between the three seemed to foreshadow the impending storm.
When Vivian took out two shimmering green objects from her pocket, Mud and Chuchan were immediately drawn to them. In the dim light, the two green things shimmered strangely in Vivian's palm. With a gentle toss, the two green crystals slowly floated into Mud and Chuchan's hands.
Mud recognized them at a glance as nuclear crystals, a powerful radiation source made with unique technology by Rein. These nuclear crystals had a green crystalline appearance, with faint traces of red electrical currents visible inside, like miniature thunderstorms trapped within the crystals, flashing with alluring yet dangerous light.
These two crystals emit a faint glow in the dim indoor light, like the brightest stars in the night sky. Their surfaces are not just a single green color, but contain countless layers and depths. The red electrical traces inside are like trapped lightning, constantly wandering within the crystals, creating a fascinating and dangerous microcosm.
Mud felt a mixture of surprise and fear when he caught the nuclear crystals. These crystals are not only incredibly precious resources in The Curse of the Wild, but also the product of Rein's special technology. Rein is able to compress nuclear radiation to the limit using his abilities, creating these crystals filled with powerful radiation energy. Each crystal emits an astonishing 500 ziverts of radiation, providing the user with temporary immense power, but also comes with great danger.
Vivian looked at the two of them and said disdainfully, "This is your reward. Work hard, and there will be more." Her tone revealed an unquestionable authority and expectation for the future.
As Chuchan greedily absorbed the energy from the nuclear crystal, the whole room seemed to be filled with his fervent behavior. The nuclear crystal in his hand shimmered like the brightest star in the night sky, attracting everyone's attention. However, this behavior caused dissatisfaction in Vivian. She knew the preciousness of the nuclear crystal, the crystallization compressed by Rein himself, each piece representing immense energy and value. In this world, nuclear crystals are not only a source of energy, but also a key to survival.
Vivian frowned, feeling disgusted by this almost addictive behavior. She had warned her subordinates many times not to rely too much on the nuclear crystal, as it would only lead to gradually losing oneself, becoming greedy and forgetting the true meaning of survival. Watching Chuchan almost instinctively engage in this behavior, a hint of anger rose in her heart. This was not the appearance she expected from a member of The Curse of the Wild.
Beside her, Mud observed with growing concern. He sensed the fluctuation in Vivian's emotions and knew how easily her anger could be ignited in such moments. Chuchan's behavior was undoubtedly asking for trouble. So, he gently nudged Chuchan in the side with his elbow, a meaningful nudge that made Chuchan instantly realize his mistake. Chuchan stopped his action, feeling somewhat embarrassed, and dared not meet Vivian's cold, stern gaze.
