Zerra realized she had gotten it wrong from the conversation between the woman and the two men earlier.
The crystal cores they were referring to weren't the ones taken from mutated animals and zombies, but…
"They aren't talking about ordinary crystal cores…" she trailed off and then paused briefly, hesitating. "They hunted ability users and took their crystal cores from inside their brains."
Everyone was stunned when they heard that.
"Outrageous! H-how can these animals…" Laziel took a deep breath, trying to calm down his anger after her words registered in his mind.
At first, people had some resistance when they used crystal cores, because they were taken from corpses. Gradually, they get used to it. Between survival and conscience, they still preferred the former.
However… now there were some people who used crystal cores from living ability users to enhance their power?
