Seeing that there was still a long queue ahead, the two of them headed to the appraisal room to sell off the Ocean-freak of Moria's eggs that had been appraised as an unknown mysterious object. Furthermore, each egg could be sold for 2 achievement points, it was truly a pleasant surprise!
After waiting for a while, it was finally their turn to enter the core of the space to deal with matters. After Sheyan and Reef sat down, a laser net was projected down from above and scanned their bodies. Following that, an emotionless mechanical voice drifted in.
[Welcome back: Contestant carrying out the mission of establishing a party.]
"Reading data …"
"The mission you have accepted is a team mission: Survival."
"Mission Introduction: Stay alive. Try your best to stay alive until you can no longer hold on."
[Checking mission progress …. You have passed the critical point of phase I! Mission evaluation increased by 30 points. "
[Checking mission progress …. You have passed the critical point of phase II! Mission evaluation increased by 50 points. "
[Checking mission progress …. You have passed the critical point of phase III! Mission evaluation increased by 100 points. "
"Your mission evaluation is 30 + 30 + 50 + 100 = 210 points. The two participants did not return early."
"Your mission completion rating is: Current difficulty is highest (LVL max)."
"Please wait a moment …"
"Connecting …."
The contestants waited for nearly ten minutes. Then, a chaotic disturbance appeared on the virtual screen. After a while, a hoarse voice came from the other side again. "That's right. That's right. That's right.
"If this damned signal device doesn't give me a sufficient reason to wake me up, I will definitely apply for a replacement of the main chip. Otherwise, I will never drink the hot cocoa of the Barbarapong Basin again! Damn it, what is it that needs to be connected to me? Eh? "
"Team Creation Mission Completion Evaluation: Max????"
"And a second lieutenant applied?"
"Aha! Look who this is. Number 1018? "
When Sheyan heard this hoarse voice, he immediately knew who it was. It was most likely the fellow who awarded him when he was promoted to Second Lieutenant.
"Nice to see you again, Sir."
The hoarse voice laughed straightforwardly.
"You can call me Mr. Lieutenant Colonel. Looks like I didn't misjudge you. Although the team building mission isn't too difficult, it's still quite rare to be able to achieve such a result. Oh, you two completed the quest together? Furthermore, you are a second lieutenant, so the relevant rewards will take this into consideration. Well, congratulations! Party Ace is officially established! "
Following the announcement of the hoarse voice, both Sheyan and Reef simultaneously received a notification.
"You have left the temporary team."
"Your team has received the mission completion rating of the highest (Max) bonus reward: Silver rank."
"The Silver rank privilege is as follows: From the moment the party is established, you can draw a maximum of three party passive skills."
"Silver rank privileges are as follows: When engaging in a group battle with other parties, you can directly suppress the skills of the enemy party, reducing the effects by at least 10% -30% (depending on the grade of the enemy party), and increase the failure rate of the enemy party's skills to 20% -50% (depending on the grade of the enemy party)."
"The Silver rank's privileges are as follows: When drawing party related skills, you can obtain an additional chance to draw."
"The Silver rank's privileges are as follows: Obtain a party storage space of 10x10x10 cubic metres."
"The Silver rank's privileges are as follows: Every time the party level increases, you will obtain 2 party skill points (1 point under normal circumstances). You can use the party skill points to upgrade your party skills. Every 3 party skill points can open up an additional party skill learning slot."
*****
Looking at this series of notifications, Sheyan wasn't too surprised. Using Jinkuang's sarcastic words as he spat out his melon seed, "Ignorance is bliss".
Instead, Reef took in a deep breath of cold air after looking at the long list of notifications. He remembered when he first established the reserve party, there wasn't a party building mission, nor was there any information related to grades … … .this also meant, such information couldn't even be divulged to him.
As for party skills, there was only a single learning slot. After obtaining it, he would be directly assigned a skill, whether it was good or bad, it was up to the heavens. More crucially, how could party skills be learned for free? According to the learning fee, there would be 3 tiers.
The first tier was 10000 utility points, 10 potential points, and 5 achievement points. According to Reef's judgement, this type of skill would most likely be a party member's movement speed + 3 (not 3%), strength + 1, attack damage + 1% etc. Without a doubt, the best attribute would be physique + 1, because no one in the party would find it useless. Worth mentioning, the Symbiosis sect's party skill 'Saving From Desperate Situation' was also of this tier.
The second tier was 30000 utility points, 30 potential points, and 15 achievement points. Obviously, this tier of party skills would be better than the previous ones. It would roughly be strength + 3, explosive strike rate + 2%, evasion rate + 2% etc. The Banks Syndicate party skill 'Breaking the Boats' (Upon being heavily injured, a shield would be formed. The shield's HP would be 100 points, inheriting the defender's defence) belonged to the second tier. Of course, it was also possible that they had used party skill points to upgrade this skill.
The third tier's learning fee was 70000 utility points, 70 potential points, and 35 achievement points. Eh, Reef wasn't too clear on this tier of party skills. He had only heard of a party skill that gave + 1 to all attributes, and it seemed like it should be of this tier.
More crucially, Reef also noticed that after the party leveled up, they would receive 2 party skill points. This was an attribute that could only be described as black before his eyes …... when a reserve-duty party leveled up, they would only receive 1 party skill point!! If this was the case, a Silver ranked party's growth speed, could be said to be twice as fast as a reservist party!
At present, Sheyan didn't have the time to care about Reef's thoughts. He still remembered the advice that the hoarse voice had given him previously, it was indeed priceless advice. At present, the hoarse voice yawned lazily before continuing.
"Are you done looking? After you are done, prepare to draw your party skill. You can draw 3 times, oh no, a Silver ranked party can draw 6 times. You can choose three out of the six choices as your party's skills. "
Sheyan's heart stirred as he asked.
"I wonder if Mister Lieutenant Colonel has any other advice for me?"
The hoarse voice laughed out heartily.
"Nope, nope! You've been smart all your life, why are you so muddle-headed now? The logic behind this is obvious. Let me ask you, what is the name of your party establishment mission? "
When Sheyan heard this, his heart was instantly enlightened. That's right! For those who were struggling in the Space, their only hope was to survive! Surviving, that was the root of everything!
Following that, he began to draw his party skill. But when he chose the first draw, the nightmare imprint immediately halted the process and issued a notification.
"Contestant no.1018 and contestant no. 770123 have entered the party establishment mission together."
"Both parties did not return early."
"Both parties received the highest mission completion rating (Max)."
"You have triggered the relevant conditions."
"Calculating … …."
"Planning … …."
"Verifying relevant conditions … …."
After a full five minutes, the next step of the system notification finally came.
"You have acquired the hidden party skill: 'Life-link'! (Every upgrade requires 3 party skill points) "
"Unable to appraise this skill."
"Hidden party skill: 'Life-link'. When both of you are in Party Ace (i.e. no one has lost their party member status), your life force will be linked by a mysterious force."
"When either party reaches the critical point of near death state, they will directly enter the state of 'Boulder' where their movement speed will be reduced by 50%, unable to attack or use items. Following that, any damage dealt to them will be reduced by 50%! Furthermore, the damage will be transferred to the other party (The transferred damage will be taken into account of the other party's defence, the near death party will not receive any damage) "
"When both parties enter the state of near death, the 'Life-link' will cease."
"The damage reduction effect of the 'Boulder' state has domain precedence." (When there is a conflict between certain abilities: No Precedence < Precedence < Authority (This is the hidden attribute of crushing) < Domain Precedence < Domain Authority)
"You can also choose to abandon this hidden party skill, and randomly draw another party skill. Yes/No? "
Sheyan and Reef glanced at each other, and simultaneously pressed 'Yes' without hesitation! Seeing the word 'hidden', they naturally knew this skill was rare. As the saying goes, 'the rarer an object is, the greater its value' had been passed down for thousands of years, and still exuberant with vitality. Obviously, it was still applicable even in the nightmare realm.
The main reason why the realm was unable to determine the grade of this skill, was probably due to its limited applicability. Without a doubt, Sheyan and Reef's' Link 'effect was the best. But when two anemic long range contestants were linked together, as long as the party's MT didn't fall, this ability wouldn't be of any use. Once the MT fell, the use of the 'Link' ability would be limited to escaping. At most, it would be a substandard escaping ability. (To be continued.)
