The three major enhancement options that appeared before Sheyan shone with a mysterious radiance. At first glance, one would feel a sense of awe and veneration.

When Sheyan saw this series of notifications, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded! Not only did it require a terrifying 40 achievement points, but there was also a lot of information in the list that he needed to analyze.
Obviously, among the three skill trees to choose from, type A focused on weakening, type B focused on attacking, and type C focused on both aspects. However, there was a threshold of 40 achievement points. Even if he had the 'Stairway of the Sun', the cost of achievement points, utility points and potential points to strengthen the virus would be reduced by 50%. However, it still required a terrifying 20 achievement points to activate it. Not to mention the further consumption after activation.
This basically meant that after activating one of the skill trees at the beginning, it would take a very long time before activating the other skill tree!
How to convert the invested achievement points into the most suitable combat ability, that was the first choice Sheyan had to make.
Apart from that, Sheyan didn't forget that he was carrying Chris Sheyan. Within Redfield's' Lucky Bracelet ', there was still a high tier ability waiting for him to learn. At this moment, the critical shortage of achievement points had undoubtedly greatly restricted Sheyan's development. Unfortunately, achievement points couldn't be obtained through transactions!!
After obtaining his final reward, Sheyan didn't dare to linger around here any longer. A thousand utility points per hour was rather expensive. He sat up and gifted his personal storage of rum, linen cloth, knives and other goods to Old Aram. Then, he decisively stepped out of the boundary of Port Qom, and chose to leave the hidden world and return to the nightmare realm.
Because the hidden world didn't have any main mission, there wasn't any completion evaluation. Sheyan's vision darkened before he experienced a feeling of weightlessness; as though he was drifting in a pitch-black water for a long time. When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to his personal storage. Instead, Jinkuang was still snoring loudly, as though he had entered hibernation.
As for Brother Black and Reef, they appeared to be incessantly tempering their abilities in the realm. Once they received a notification from the party, and successfully noticed Sheyan's return, they immediately called out. Of course, they were inquiring about Sheyan's safety, and their harvests.
Roughly 10 minutes later, the trio congregated in the party's shared room, and started counting their harvests from this hidden world. Because Sheyan had stayed in the hidden world for too long, he had sold off all the gold sand, gold bricks, diamonds and other pure valuables.
Noteworthily, Sheyan had found a total of 3 diamonds in the underground ruins. Every single diamond could be sold for at least 40,000 utility points, or at most 80,000 utility points, depending on its carat. If not for those diamonds, the exorbitant medical expenses of Brother Black and Reef would have been an exceedingly obvious deficit. Therefore, he was actually able to save up close to 20,000 utility points upon returning, which was rather decent.
After a final inventory, Sheyan determined the following harvests from this hidden world.
[Two Deadmarsh Great Crocodile Horcruxes]
[Silver Beetles x 4 (Also obtained from the underground ruins, not mentioned)]
[Golden Beetles x 2 (Also obtained from the underground ruins, not mentioned)]
[Pandora's Egg x 1]
[Lion's Heart x 1]
[Dark-gold item: Ndipaya Evolved Leech (Special)]
[Dark-green set equipment x 2]
[Caribbean Sea's Golden Pearl (Soul equipment)]
[Hidden Rank 9 ability: Pestilence Monarch]
(The trial potion and its raw materials can't be brought out, just like the 'Stairway of the Sun' sub-body and the meteorite fragment. Without the recognition of the Nightmare Realm and the notification that you have obtained XXX, you probably can't bring them out.)

As Reef and Brother Black listened to Sheyan's narration of his subsequent experiences, they could not help but feel waves of trepidation. Never in their wildest dreams had they imagined that the final outcome and rewards would actually require them to return to Port Qom to retrieve them! As for the final clue, it actually rested on that old and decrepit chieftain, Old Aram.
After a round of discussion, the trio decided that since Sheyan was currently lacking in achievement points, they could consider selling the Silver Beetles and Golden Beetles for 10 achievement points. Thus, they should be able to unlock a branch of the 'Pestilence Monarch' ability tree.
As for the 'Pandora's Egg' and 'Caribbean Sea's Golden Pearl', their values were still uncertain. It was best to wait for them to be appraised before selling them. Even if they were sold now, they probably wouldn't fetch a high price, and wouldn't be able to resolve any pressing issues.
As for the dark-gold item 'Ndipaya Evolved Leech (Special)', that item definitely wouldn't be sold. A weapon that could both attack and defend, it definitely couldn't be sold.
Thus, the remaining items to be displayed on the shelves were as follows:
[Lion's Heart]
[Silver storyline shield: Alien Skull Shield] that Reef swapped out.
[Two dark-green set equipment: Ndipaya Marsh Raven Gauntlet of Majesty and Ndipaya Colossal Mask of Majesty]
Truthfully speaking, those two dark-green equipment could definitely fetch a high price. Regrettably, they were still lacking one piece to complete the set. Moreover, the crucial point was that it was a hidden world product. Thus, it signified that the difficulty of completing the set was exceedingly high, possibly surpassing the difficulty of obtaining a dark-gold equipment. Hence, it was inevitable that buyers would try to haggle in this aspect.
Nevertheless, after experiencing the baptism of the hidden world, the trio started to realize the importance of cash flow. Although it seemed like they could obtain a lot of utility points in one go, the rate of consumption was similarly astonishing. Thus, the trio reached a rather clear consensus regarding those two dark-green equipment.
That was, the most suitable trading method for their party was to sell one piece, and exchange for another. One of the dark-green equipment could be exchanged for utility points. Simultaneously, the other dark-green equipment could be used to exchange for other equipment that the rest of the party lacked.
Of course, if the silver storyline shield swapped out by Reef could be sold for a good price, then they would definitely demand an exorbitant price for the dark-green equipment and squeeze out as much profit as possible. If they were still lacking utility points before entering the next world, then they would undoubtedly suffer some losses in this aspect.
This time, the trio should have left this world earlier. Judging from the sparse number of contestants wandering around the marketplace, it could be deduced. Previously, Reef and Mogensha had been worried about Sheyan's whereabouts, fearing that they would suddenly receive news of 'your party leader is dead'. Thus, they had been bitterly waiting. Now that they witnessed Sheyan's safe return and even profited a huge sum, the two of them were anxious to return to the present world.
Fortunately, Sheyan had stayed in the nightmare world for several days longer than the other two. To them, it was merely a few hours and didn't delay for too long. Here, the operation mode of the party warehouse should be mentioned. Once the distance between the trio exceeded a certain distance (depending on the world's difficulty, usually 3 km to 8 km), then the warehouse would enter private lockdown mode.
