By the time Alex and his team returned to East Sea City, it was nearly 2 p.m. The experience of conquering a monster nest differed from that of a standard resource point. Normally, Alex alone would receive abundant rewards, while the others were limited to experience points and mission completion bonuses. However, this time, everyone who participated in the battle received various levels of *resource crystals*.
**N-Level Resource Crystal:**
- A mysterious crystal with latent power, which can raise the level of an N-level potential user.
- Usage cooldown: 24 hours.
It was the first time they had encountered such an item, but the description made its value apparent. Dubbed an "experience stone," it was highly prized, even with the one-day cooldown.
After consulting with various guides, the group learned the market value of these crystals:
- N-grade crystals were worth 10,000 points each.
- R-grade crystals were 20 times more valuable, priced at 200,000 points.
- SR-grade crystals were worth a staggering 5 million points each!
With a quick calculation, Alex realized that his total haul was nothing short of miraculous. If he sold all the resource crystals, he'd be looking at billions of points in profit. However, after speaking with his guide, Logan, Alex learned that this kind of windfall was rare. A fully developed Tier-One monster nest would house over 10,000 monsters, requiring thousands of soldiers to conquer. The contribution shares in such cases would be much smaller, and even if the nest's resources were plentiful, the rewards would be distributed across a large number of people.
In this case, Alex's team had reaped massive rewards because the nest was relatively underdeveloped. Alex himself claimed 43% of the crystals, while the rest of the team split the remaining 57%. Although each member received an average of crystals worth 250,000 points—still a significant sum—it paled compared to Alex's windfall.
Logan also mentioned that the longer a monster nest remained unconquered, the more resources the monsters consumed. Over time, the remaining crystals would dwindle, while the monsters themselves would grow stronger. Even so, Alex was content with this massive haul. His only concern now was figuring out how to manage his newfound wealth. Luckily, with East Sea City now upgraded to a Tier-Two City, its marketplace had opened, providing the perfect opportunity for Alex to spend his points.
Of the five teams that had set out that morning to conquer resource points, two returned to East Sea City earlier than Alex's group. One of those teams, led by Victor, succeeded in capturing a resource point, but the other, led by Jon from the Gymnasium Outpost, barely survived an assault by monsters. Only 300 out of 2,000 team members made it back, the rest having been revived at the city's resurrection pool.
As the *Lanheart Meadow* resource point was officially integrated into East Sea City, every player in the city received a new mission notification:
"East Sea City has successfully upgraded to a Tier-Two City. All players receive 10,000 merit points and 10,000 points!"
**Main Task:** Build a Tier-Three City
- Requirements: Control 20 N-level resource points.
---
With this announcement, the next main mission was also released. The requirements for upgrading to a Tier-Three City were twice as high as before. However, with hunger setting in and curiosity piqued by the city's new marketplace, Alex and his companions decided to disband temporarily, planning to regroup in the afternoon and potentially target another resource point.

"Man, this haul is unreal! I got 4 R-grade resource crystals and 13 N-grade ones. That's 930,000 points if I sold them!" Luke marveled, inspecting his newly acquired crystals.
He excitedly suggested, "Why don't we forget about resource points and just focus on raiding monster nests instead?"
Tina rolled her eyes, a mix of amusement and frustration on her face. "Didn't Logan explain it already? Raiding monster nests is part of the next phase. Right now, it's easier to capture resource points. Besides, without a massive team, raiding a fully developed nest is nearly impossible—unless we find one in its early stages like today. Otherwise, when the monster levels rise, the rest of us won't stand a chance."
Luke sighed but couldn't argue with her logic. After all, even the seemingly easier task of taking down a monster nest had proven challenging, despite their success.
