If she understood correctly, Mei Ji meant that she was waiting outside the Small Treasure Pagoda to give her a special reward?
Jehanne was flattered, but she was also puzzled. "Why, why?"
Mei Ji smiled. "There's no reason. I just find you pleasing to the eye. Plus, you're the first challenger, so I'll give you a little benefit in my name."
At this point, Mei Ji suddenly changed the topic. "However, with my authority, I can't change your personal reward pool, and I can't directly give you a Fairyland item. The benefits I can give you are very limited, so don't expect too much."
Hearing this, Jehanne calmed down a little. If Mei Ji directly gave her a so-called fairyland item, she wouldn't know whether she should accept it or not.
Not long after, Mei Ji talked about the "special reward" she gave.
"I mentioned before that every level of the Small Treasure Pagoda is actually random. Different people will have different challenges on the same level."
"However, what I said at that time wasn't very accurate. After your trial, I found that the Small Treasure Pagoda's trial isn't completely random. "
"It will give you a score based on your performance on the previous level. Based on this score, you will be able to determine the difficulty of the trial that you will encounter next time. "
"For example, in this trial, you only used less than an hour to complete the twelve hour countdown. In the Small Treasure Pagoda's score, your score is quite high. The difficulty of your next challenge will increase accordingly. "
Jehanne: "???" The better my performance, the higher the difficulty of my next challenge. What kind of logic is this?
Mei Ji seemed to see Jehanne's confusion and explained with a smile, "It's actually not hard to understand. The Small Treasure Pagoda will divide all challengers into three, six, and nine levels. They are roughly elite challengers, ordinary challengers, rookie challengers, and so on. Different levels of challengers have different rewards. "
"The reward for an elite challenger on the first level may be more than the combined rewards for rookie challengers on the second and third levels."
"Now that you've passed the first level with a very beautiful result, under the Small Treasure Pagoda's screening, you've been classified as an elite challenger."
"If you can continue to clear the stage as an elite challenger, your reward pool will accumulate at an astonishing rate."
To put it bluntly, the reward for clearing the 120th floor was not even as much as the reward for clearing the 40th floor.
Therefore, don't think that the difficulty of each level of the trial is a form of persecution. In fact, this is a reward for you.
Also, rookies wouldn't be able to rely on low-difficulty trials to reach the 120th floor.
Every few levels, the Little Treasure Pagoda would purposely separate out a high difficulty dungeon. This was a filter for the challengers. If you passed the dungeon, your level would increase. If you didn't pass the dungeon, then goodbye.
"As an elite challenger, if your performance on a level is poor, even if you pass, the Small Treasure Pagoda will disqualify you from being an elite. Thus, the difficulty of your trial will be lowered, and your reward level will also be lowered. Of course, you'll still have a chance to regain the elite qualification, but the final reward will definitely be discounted. "
Huang Na nodded in realization. She roughly understood what he meant. Was this the meaning of "the strong get stronger"?
Mei Ji said, "It's also because the Small Treasure Pagoda has such a rating system that it gives different levels to different challengers. The levels encountered by rookie challengers are the most barren. It's basically a cycle of solving puzzles and fighting. Elite challengers are different. They have a wide variety of levels and will test you from multiple levels. "
At this point, Mei Ji finally mentioned the "benefit" she gave Huang Na.
"And the special reward I'm talking about is to use my authority to inform you in advance of the type of level you might encounter on the next level."
"Know in advance what type of level I'll face on the next level?" At first, Huang Na didn't realize the importance of this reward. After she repeated it a few times in a low voice, her eyes suddenly lit up. If she knew the type of level in advance, wouldn't she be able to target it during the 'preparation period'?
Then she could always walk the path of an elite challenger and maximize the reward?!
But then again …
"Is this considered cheating?" Huang Na asked timidly.
Mei Ji smiled and shook her head. "It's not cheating. According to the information I received, I have the authority to disclose it. However, whether I'm willing to disclose it or not depends on my mood.
"Also, I actually don't know what the specific trial you'll face on the next level is. I only know a weighting ratio.
"What I can tell you is the three types of trial you might encounter next with the highest weighting ratio.
"As for which type you'll encounter in the end, I actually don't know."
To put it simply, it had changed from a true random selection to a random selection of three.
Although she was a little disappointed that she couldn't directly know the content of the next level, Huang Na thought about it carefully. Even if it was just a random selection of three, it was still pretty good. At worst, the 'preparation period' would be a little longer. Moreover, there was no harm in preparing more. Even if she didn't need it in this trial, she might need it in the next trial.
Therefore, Huang Na was naturally willing to accept this reward.
However, she also knew that all the free gifts in the name of 'free' were actually not really free. It was just that what you paid was not necessarily money, but something else.
Was Miss Mei Ji really giving her this benefit just because 'you're the first challenger', 'you're a kind person, and I like you'?
Did Miss Mei Ji have other plans? She didn't want to reveal them now, so she would ask for them in the future?
As Huang Na hesitated, Mei Ji suddenly frowned. "Huh? Someone's trying to enter Silver Coral Island?"
Huang Na looked over in confusion. Is it Mister Padt?
"Not rejected by Silver Coral Island, which means he means no harm. But I'll have to see if he's qualified to enter with my own eyes … "Mei Ji muttered in a low voice and pointed at a spot not far away.
A glowing door slowly opened in the direction she was pointing at.
When the door opened, a young man, a young woman, and a hunchback old woman walked in.
Without a doubt, they were Angor, Laplace, and Glepnir.
Mei Ji carefully observed the three people. First, she looked at Glepnir, who was the "oldest" among them. As far as she knew, the older a person was, the more complicated his or her mind would be, and the less likely he or she would accept him or her.
Using the spirit energy she received from Silver Coral Island, Mei Ji found that Glepnir's mind was quite pure. He or she didn't mean any harm to Silver Coral Island, nor did he or she have too much greed.
Her judgment of kindness was not based on "good or evil" on a moral level. Instead, it was based on whether a person's mind was pure, whether he or she had too many negative emotions such as greed, and whether he or she harbored evil intentions toward Silver Coral Island.
Glepnir passed the test so far.
Next, Mei Ji looked at the silver-haired girl, Laplace.
She passed the test as well. Her mind was even purer than Glepnir's, and this purity helped her to calm her mind.
In Mei Ji's opinion, Laplace was definitely a "pure" person. Even her "colleague", the unicorn, would lower its head and try to get close to her.
Mei Ji was in a good mood because the first two people were qualified to enter Silver Coral Island.
As a gifted citizen granted by Dreamwalking Wonderland, and a special gifted citizen at that, she was very happy to let her Wonderland receive more attention.
Mini Treasure Tower was a tower of trials. If no one tried it, its existence would be meaningless.
Therefore, the more people who could enter Silver Coral Island, the happier she would be.
Mei Ji looked at the last person, who was also the only male in the group — Angor.
According to her judgment, Angor's mind was as pure as Glepnir's, so he was also qualified to enter Silver Coral Island. However, Mei Ji still felt that Angor was giving her a strange feeling.
He seemed to be loved by the world just by standing here.
Could it be that he had cleared a certain fairyland and obtained an ability similar to "Nature Affinity"?
Although Mei Ji didn't know whether her guess was right or not, it didn't matter. A person who was loved by nature was definitely not a "bad" person in her judgment.
"Are the three of you here to participate in the Small Treasure Pagoda challenge?" Mei Ji smiled at the three people. "I know you have a lot of questions about this place. Feel free to ask."
The three exchanged a look. Questions? They had been watching the livestream, so they did not have any questions.
However, Glepnir did have a question. When Mei Ji looked at him and Laplace, she did not show any emotion, which meant she had no feelings for her creators and no memory of them.
But why was she looking at Angor in a strange way?
Of course, Gleipnir knew that Angor could control the Dream of Wonderland in a certain way, but that was not the reason why Angor was treated so well. Angor was a participant in the other Wonderland quests, and he was not treated so well either.
So why did Mei Ji care about Angor? Was it because she was a special NPC?
Gleipnir was confused, but she did not ask. Laplace already forbade her from looking into Angor's affairs. She could only think about it. She would never ask.
Since the three of them already knew how Silver Coral Island worked, they did not ask anything, which led to an awkward silence.
In the end, it was Angor who broke the silence.
"Yes, we do have many questions, especially about this world, the challenge of the Little Treasure Pagoda that Miss Mermaid spoke of, and Miss Mermaid herself. We are all very curious. I don't know. Can you answer our questions? "
Angor did not plan to show off his "special" status in front of an NPC, especially one who could show up outside a dungeon. It was better to cooperate when necessary.
Mei Ji smiled. "Of course. But before that, you don't have to keep calling me Miss Mermaid. My race is the Treasure Mermaid. Our race's name is very long, and it sounds very complicated to you humans. To avoid trouble, you can call me Mei Ji. "
Mei Ji apologized to Jehanne in a low voice. She would talk about the reward after the introductions were over.
Next, Mei Ji began her explanation.
The content was similar to what she told Jehanne before.
The only difference was that Jehanne did not wait for Angor to ask her questions before she answered them. For example, who could challenge Mini Treasure Tower? Who should judge the so-called "kind" people? It was possible to stay on Silver Coral Island for a long time, but there was a threshold.
When she was done, Mei Ji smiled and asked, "Now, do you have any more questions?"
In Mei Ji's opinion, this time, she had combined the experience she had gained from Jehanne to give a perfect explanation. There shouldn't be any other problems, right?
As she had expected, Gleipnir and Laplace didn't ask any questions. They just stood aside and whispered to each other.
Angor stepped forward and asked a question.
"I have a question." Angor looked at Mei Ji and asked, "Why is this place called 'Mini' Treasure Tower?"
If the trial on Silver Coral Island was called "Treasure Tower", Angor would not be curious about the name.
However, there was an extra word in front of the name: "Mini Treasure Tower".
Angor was curious about it.
For example, if a city had an "Old City District", then logically, there should be a "New City District". If there was a "Mini Treasure Tower" here, did that mean there was a "Big Treasure Tower"?
Mei Ji wagged her tail and gave Angor a thoughtful look. "You're quite observant, aren't you?"
Angor was speechless. No, it's not an observation. It's just a question of logic.
Mei Ji continued, "I think you're wondering if there's a" Mini Treasure Tower "here, then there must be a" Big Treasure Tower ". My answer is yes, there is a "Big Treasure Tower". "
Mei Ji's words made everyone look over curiously. "There's really a big treasure pagoda?"
Mei Ji nodded: "Yes, the Great Treasure Pagoda exists, but it is not on the Silver Coral Island, it is on the Golden Coral Island. The Golden Coral Island is also on this boundless sea, but it's impossible for you to sail to the Golden Coral Island from here because the Golden Coral Island is covered by a dense fog. You can't go in and out yet. "
The fact that the island was covered by the fog and could not be entered at the moment was actually indirectly telling them that there was a threshold to enter the Golden Coral Island.
"Miss Mei Ji, you mean we can go to Golden Coral Island in the future? Or do we have to fulfill certain conditions before we can go there? "
Mei Ji nodded with a smile. "That's right. There is a requirement to go there. And that is … to clear the "Mini Treasure Tower".
"When someone passes the 120-story Small Treasure Pagoda, the Big Treasure Pagoda on the Golden Coral Island will be unlocked. As the Big Treasure Pagoda is unlocked, the fog shrouding the Golden Coral Island will disperse. At that time, I will be able to open a channel to the Golden Coral Island and lead everyone there."
"However, the" Big Treasure Tower "on Golden Coral Island can only be challenged by those who have cleared the" Mini Treasure Tower ". Those who haven't cleared the "Mini Treasure Tower" won't get anything on Golden Coral Island.
