"Hello, Comrade Luo Fan."
Luo Fan checked the message on his phone. Sure enough, it was from Master Wen Hao, though being addressed as "comrade" left him feeling rather wistful.
He had never expected to hear that form of address even in the apocalypse.
"Hello, Master." Luo Fan quickly sent a reply.
"Comrade Luo Fan, forgive me for asking, but have you used that Rule-Type Weird Crystal you have?" The master dispensed with the pleasantries and went straight to the point.
"Not yet." Luo Fan was quite happy with such a direct conversation too. After a brief hesitation, he answered honestly.
"Then, Comrade Luo Fan, would you be willing to part with it? I need a Rule-Type Weird Crystal for a new round of important research."
Once Master Wen Hao learned that Luo Fan still had the Rule-Type Weird Crystal, his next message came quickly.
"No!" Luo Fan refused outright.
Yes, Luo Fan admired people like Master Wen Hao from the bottom of his heart. If he could help, he would not mind doing so.
But asking him to part with his Rule-Type Weird Crystal?
Sorry, he could not do that.
If he absorbed the Rule-Type Weird Crystal when he reached level 15, his level 16 skill could receive the blessing of Rule Power.
Come on, a skill enhanced by Rule Power would qualify as a god-tier skill, wouldn't it?
Take Brother Niu's Block. Without that skill, no one could have stopped the charge of that Second-Tier Weird last night.
So, with his own interests at stake, and on something this important, Luo Fan would never give up the Rule-Type Weird Crystal simply out of personal admiration.
Silence followed. Clearly, Master Wen Hao had not expected Luo Fan to refuse so bluntly.
A full half minute passed before another message
