Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

Chapter 97: CHAPTER 96 - Two things.



The guy seemed to have grown stronger, gaining some confidence as he was calling people to hunt himself, and he was way up on the bounty list as well.

Now, what was the bounty list?

It was a list of bounties all over the state; every state had a different bounty list.

In those bounty lists, the names of the people with bounty on their heads were uploaded in the order of highest to lowest difficulty levels.

Now, one person with a bounty on his head could for another and claim the reward.

The people, however, were aiming for the low-ranked bounties, as they would be the easiest to hunt, especially when hunting in groups.

How was the difficulty level decided? Only the system knew the answer to that question.

But one thing was clear, and it was that the humans who thought of killing as a crime were now looking for the whereabouts of people to hunt them in groups.

People were learning the way of the apocalypse; now, it should be a good thing, but was it really?

Alex, however, just ignored that, as he always knew that humans were just another species of animals who were bound by rules; remove the rules, and you\'ll see what they could do.

His focus right now was on two things; first, the message that Ridha kept sending in the state chats and country chats.

Maybe she was sending in the city chats as well; it\'s just that Alex wasn\'t in the same city as her to be able to see those messages.

\'What does this girl want?\'

Alex frowned inwardly, not exactly understanding the reason behind the girl\'s persistence.

If she\'s thankful to him, then just be grateful. What does she want to make up for?

Alex never saved her because she was Ridha or because he wanted something from her.

He did so because, as a human, he still had some conscience left in him, and he couldn\'t see another human getting their body defiled by a group of monsters, especially when the humans didn\'t seem to like it.

Yeah, the system\'s warning was also a reason for it, but him saving her so that she could express her gratitude was never his intention.

\'Should I just kill her?\'

A cold light flashed through Alex\'s eyes as he thought of killing her.

She was on the bounty list as well, after all, and she was not actually a weak player.

Ridha was placed among the middle-ranked bounty, and her difficulty was rated as B, which was actually good.

If he were to kill her, then he would be able to claim the reward as well as get rid of her once and for all.

But just then...

[The Eternal Devotee of Rama raises a brow at the new viewer.]

[The Remover of Obstacles is asking for the new entrant\'s purpose.]

[The Enchantress of Love is waving at the new entrant.]

[The Divine Healer of Mankind is staring at the new entrant.]

[The Divine Arbiter of Justice and Order is nodding at the new entrant.]

[The Dragon Warrior is nodding at the new entrant.]

[The Metal Detector is flaunting his wealth in front of the new viewer.]

A new barrage of notifications arrived, causing Alex to frown harder.

\'Who\'s it now?\'

It was clear that it was someone strong since they had attracted the attention of all of the gods he had kept active, and although he wasn\'t sure of it, Alex could tell that the gods he had kept on unmute were strong.

"Unmute Notification."

He muttered, and the next second...

[The Flame of War is looking at you with a grin on her face.]

Many notifications arrived one after another, but the one that he felt was the new god was this one.

\'The Flame of War...\'

[The Flame of War is asking you to move southeast from here.]

But then Alex frowned.

"Mute notifications."

He directly muted her.

Who was she to tell him where to go?

And why did she want him to go there anyway?

[The Eternal Devotee of Rama is sighing at the Flame of Wars.]

[The Divine Arbiter of Justice and Order is shaking her head at the Flame of Wars foolishness.]

[The Enchantress of love is….]

[The Divine Healer…. ]

[The Dragon…. ]

[The…. ]

Alex could see the other gods, the ones who were made an exception to the mute, showing different kinds of expressions to the flame of wars, but soon he started to ignore them as well.

He had to focus on the second issue, which was more urgent.

As for the first issue, he will decide what to do about her if he ever happens to meet her.

The second issue was the coin distribution.

He had more than 10,000 coins by now, and he knew that with this many coins, getting himself up to level 10 wouldn\'t be hard, but there came the problem.

This is what the AI had advised him to do, and Alex himself found it important.

But then another predicament that he would have to face.

How much should he invest in his abilities?

He didn\'t have a lot of coins, and although he had way more than other humans, he was sure that there would be people with more coins than him.

He knew that if he asked for the gods to give him coins, they would shower it down on him, but that would seem like him lowering himself, and that was not something he wanted to do.

He was still able enough to collect coins on his own.

He knew that if the AI, which knew more about these magical abilities than himself, wouldn\'t suggest something that would bring him a loss, both of them were linked to each other after all.

[Coins: 12306.]

So, with a last look at his coins, he decided to first check out his stats, observe how much they grow, and then decide whether he would have enough coins left to upgrade his abilities, all while saving 1000 coins for emergencies.

Right now, he was just a kilometer away from the level 10 zone where the smilodons receded, or 500 meters away from the place where he had almost died.

Even if he were to be attacked by a randomly roaming smilodon or one that was surveying the area, he could just push all of his coins into the stats, boosting himself as much as he could, and then fight it out.

Though he had a feeling that he wouldn\'t find any of those beasts outside the zone.

*Inhale**Exhale*

With a deep breath, he looked at his status screen for a second before he started clicking at it, increasing the level of his stats one by one.

He didn\'t know that he was soon, in a time not very far from now, going to get a surprise—one that he might or might not like depending on how he took it.

Now, what was the surprise? Only time will tell.
