"Oh? So, the bonus reward has changed to this? " When Feng Bujue saw the three options, he chose the first one without much hesitation — 4,000 Skill Points.
As for the other two options, they were both meaningless to him …
The new skill bar could be bought with money. This was clearly stated in the patch. Even though Brother Jue was not as rich as those tycoons who could easily spend billions, he could still afford eight figures of Game Coins. After the market was opened, he could buy it with Game Coins. Even if the three new skill slots cost him three million each, he could afford it.
As for the title reset right … he had just used it that day, so he did not need it for the time being.
"Based on the second option, the reward should change every time, right?" After Feng Bujue claimed the 4,000 Skill Points, he thought to himself. "Because there is a limit to the number of skill slots, if every Embodiment of Valor rating gives the same reward, then after the players have gathered all three new skill slots, this option will become a completely useless option."
His speculation was not wrong. The current bonus reward system had indeed changed to a system where the reward would be different every time.
Now, after every scenario, the system would give out the corresponding reward based on the player's current character ability, performance in the scenario, and Terror Rating. Furthermore, the reward content was still optional.
In the past, the system with fixed rewards would become very useless in the later stages of the game. Even if the players did not have any Terror Points in the scenario, in the end, the only reward they could choose was' a random piece of equipment corresponding to their level '. The quality of the equipment could not be guaranteed, and if they drew' trash ', that would be their fate.
As for the remaining two options … one was EXP, which was useless for max level players, and the other was money, the kind that had a limit. For those players who did not lack money, this amount of money was not that attractive. However, for those players or organizations who relied on the game to earn money, this small profit … Even though it could not be said that the investment was not proportional to the profit, it was still impossible for them to earn enough money to cover their living expenses.
As time passed, the setting of 'Terror Rating Reward' became a very unpopular thing. It felt like … you had worked so hard to clear a scenario and finally got a good rating, but in the end, the reward you got was a useless equipment or some Game Coins. That was not something that people would be motivated to work for.
Just like the system of 'exchanging Skill Points for Game Coins' in the first version of the Thriller Box, this kind of useless setting was not something that the Dream Company could tolerate.
No matter how tyrannical and overbearing they were in certain aspects, when it came to the core of the game, the Dream Company still placed the user experience first. Therefore, using this update, the Dream Company made a big change to this extra reward system.
"Hmm … I still can't browse the items?" After claiming the reward, Brother Jue tried to open the item interface of the Thriller Box, but he soon got the system notification that said, "This function is currently unavailable."
Obviously, the shopping function of the Thriller Box was similar to the market. Both of them would only be available on the first of December when the update was officially released.
"That's not a bad idea … Even if it's available, I don't plan to use the time to browse through the items," Feng Bujue grumbled and stood up from his seat.
When he left his seat, the ragdoll that popped out from the box started to pull on the spring with difficulty, trying to 'shove itself' back into the box.
Brother Jue chose to ignore this kind of cute behavior. He left the room without turning back.
When he returned to the elevator, the door next to him closed on its own.
"In any case … I should prioritize this." Feng Bujue stood before the touchscreen again and raised his hand to tap on it. "It's already midnight, so it's perfect for a long solo nightmare …"
As he mumbled to himself, he prepared to join the queue.
But …
"Hmm?" Brother Jue suddenly thought of something. "But if that's the case … isn't that what Woody wants?" He scratched his chin and thought to himself. "Why should I cooperate with him?"
"Humph …" Feng Bujue thought about it and canceled the action. "I'll leave that kind of thing to someone else. I have other choices …"
With that in mind, he turned around, pressed the switch, and went to the storage room.
He came to the new 'storage cabinet' (now it was a cabinet, not a box). He opened the cabinet and took out the card that had been sealed for a long time — 'Poker Man' Hero ID Card.
"Hehe …" Feng Bujue actually missed that universe quite a bit. He smiled. "It's time to go to the Super Yu Alliance to farm some rewards."
…
It did not take long for Brother Jue to return to the screen with the card.
"Feng Bujue, Level 50
"Please select the game mode that you wish to join.
"You have selected Free Exploration Mode.
"Every time you enter this mode, 20,000 Game Coins will be consumed. Please confirm the operation."
Feng Bujue quickly selected the mode and confirmed the payment.
"Confirmed …"
"Searching for the multiverse that you belong to.
"Downloading, please wait a moment."
At this point, Brother Jue could clearly feel the elevator shaking.
"Welcome to Thriller Paradise." Then, the system's standard voice announced the opening.
[Download complete. You are currently in free exploration mode.]
"This mode does not have a quest system, time limit, and A.F.G effect.
"You can travel between the log-in lobby and the scenario world through the Safe House. Every time you enter this mode, 20000 Game Coins will be consumed.
"The scenario has started. Please leave this Safe House in five minutes."
After that, the elevator door next to Feng Bujue opened.
At that moment, what appeared before his eyes was the 'Safe House' that he entered when he left this universe last time.
In other words, it was … the toilet in Room Z250 of the Heroes' Dormitory Area Z in the Universal Superhero Alliance.
"I haven't been here for a long time. When was the time that I set to leave last time?" Feng Bujue said as he pushed open the door that led to the room from the toilet and walked into the living room that was not that big.
At this point, he would first briefly review the situation before he left last time.
That day, after he dealt with the 'God of Blood' that was caused by 'General Quake' on Planet Slo, he followed the other heroes back to Slo Alliance.
When the God of Blood and Brother Jue came to an agreement and transformed himself into the God of Blood's Magatama, Brother Jue purposely avoided the video and audio equipment at the scene. As for the other heroes present, they were either unconscious or unable to think under the influence of Fear Projection.
Therefore, after Feng Bujue returned, he claimed that he had 'blown the God of Blood into smithereens'.
As the saying went, dead men tell no tales. Furthermore, Brother Jue was sent by the Yushun Alliance as reinforcement, so no one would suspect him, and no one would expect him to be able to 'recruit' the Blood Corpse God …
Therefore, he lied his way through and returned to the Yu Super Alliance with the heavily injured planetary hero, 'Man of Steel'. Since the latter's spine was broken, once he returned to the Yu Super Alliance headquarters, he was sent into the surgery room, and Feng Bujue … returned to his dormitory and left this scenario through the Safe House.
"Oh … I think I chose 'one hour later'." After thinking for a few seconds, Brother Jue found the answer in his memory.
By then, he had already sat before the computer in the room and inserted his hero ID card.
"Searching for ID card …
"Identity confirmed.
"Welcome to the system, Poker Man."
"Okay … Let me see what reward I got from the previous mission." Feng Bujue operated the computer and looked at the mission record.
At that moment, in his personal data, the previous incident record had been updated.
Furthermore, the level of this incident had been changed.
When Feng Bujue accepted this mission, it was only a Level C Crisis, a 'crisis that was enough to destroy a planet'. At the time, the heroes from the Slo Alliance, who had submitted the request, thought that this was an incident that was' easy to deal with '. Therefore, the Yu Super Alliance only sent Man of Steel, a planetary hero, and Brother Jue was sent as a 'follower'.
However, no one expected that as the incident unfolded and the appearance of the Bloody Corpse God, the Slo Alliance was almost wiped out, and Man of Steel was paralyzed (of course, with the Yu Super Alliance's technology, even paralysis could be cured). In the end, everyone relied on a 'city-level hero' who had just completed the hero level test to turn the tables.
In any case, on the way back to the Yu Super Alliance with Feng Bujue and Man of Steel, this incident had been upgraded to a Level B Crisis (a crisis that could destroy a galaxy). In fact, if Brother Jue had not dealt with the Bloody Corpse God in the first place, this incident could very well have become a Level A Crisis (a major crisis that could destroy multiple galaxies). However, that assumption did not exist now.
"Hmm? That's it? " After Feng Bujue read the incident report and looked at his own information, he found a very serious problem — there was no reward.
"So … there is no material reward for engaging in heroic activities …" Brother Jue muttered. "Or is material reward to be able to enjoy the various resources provided by the Alliance, so that it is more convenient to carry out heroic activities?"
His speculation was right. The Yu Super Alliance was such an organization.
The so-called 'superheroes' were a group of people — 'hero' was not a job, but a title.
"Soldiers", "policemen", and "mercenaries" were jobs, but heroes were not.
Superheroes were a group of people who, in order to uphold the justice in their hearts, or to protect something … put their lives on the line, and did not ask for anything in return.
Of course, there were people who had different views on this.
First of all, in the eyes of most planetary governments, 'heroes' were armed forces that were not under their control. They exercised force that was not under their control, and maintained 'justice' that was not under their control.
And 'justice' and 'law' often conflicted. Even between 'justice' and 'justice', due to different people's different understandings, there would be conflicts.
Secondly, among the people, there were also many people who held the view that 'heroes were outside the law', 'they had no right to abuse their power', and 'they needed to be supervised.'
As long as there were individual differences and selfishness between intelligent life in the universe, as long as there were differences in beliefs and ideals in the universe, then such contradictions and conflicts of ideas would always exist.
However, there was a natural law that would always work, and that was — 'the one with the bigger fist' had the final say.
There were many people in the Yu Super Alliance who were ridiculously strong. They had enough 'power' to make those people who always said that 'heroes are too powerful and need to be supervised' unable to do anything to them. They also had enough 'faith' … to be willing to protect all the ordinary people, including those mentioned above.
The seven members of the Cosmos Super Alliance's Supreme Council were the most typical examples. They could be said to be the bright lights of the universe's good faction. It was precisely because of these 'great' heroes that the ideology and the organization itself could continue to exist and be passed down.
As for Feng Bujue … his ideology was actually in conflict with the Yu Super Alliance. He was definitely not great enough to protect and tolerate a group of people who always wanted to outlaw or control him.
His idea was — 'Those who think that I am a threat, need to be supervised, and need to be controlled, when you are faced with a situation where you need me to save you, please find a way to find those who are not a threat to you, are under supervision, and can be controlled to save you. Just don't come to me.'
By the way … this was just Feng Bujue 'standing in the position of a superhero'. If he did not have the identity of a 'hero', he would have chosen to kill these people directly …
Beep beep!
A few minutes later, just as Feng Bujue was about to browse the other missions, two notifications suddenly sounded. At the same time, an email popped up on the computer screen.
"Hmm?" Brother Jue looked at the sender. It showed that it was "Tin Foil Man" and the content of the email was very simple — [The coffee shop on 15th Street in the residential area has launched a new snack. If you are free, let's have afternoon tea together!]
"Haha …" Feng Bujue smiled after reading the email. "Is this some kind of dirty deal …"
Although he said this, he quickly typed a line of words — "I am free now." and clicked on the reply button.
About ten seconds later, the other party replied, "Then let's do it now. I happen to be near that shop."
"Okay, I will come from the dormitory. I should be there soon." Feng Bujue added the word "should" because he was not very familiar with the Yu Super Alliance's terrain, so he did not know how long it would take for him to arrive.
"Okay, I will wait for you in the shop (laugh)." Tin Foil Man immediately replied.
"He even added a 'laugh'..." Brother Jue saw the other party's reply and the corner of his mouth twitched. "This guy is quite lively …"
