The prizes for the hundredth to fifty-first place could only be considered as participation prizes. Other than the limited edition T-shirts, everything else could be bought with RMB. Moreover, they were not very expensive. Ten Double EXP Cards and two hundred thousand game coins were only worth about two hundred RMB. Even tycoons would spend more than this amount of money on their accounts every month.
As for the prizes for the 50th to 31st place, the value was obviously higher. Two pieces of LV30 + Elite-grade equipment, if placed in the Auction House, could be sold for more than 300,000 game coins (After two weeks, the inflated prices in the Auction House had decreased). As for the 2000 Skill Points, they could not be bought with money.
Looking at the thirtieth to eleventh place … the value of the three thousand Skill Points was basically the same. The most important thing was still the Perfect-grade equipment. If Excellent equipment could be measured with money, Perfect-grade equipment could only be said to be priceless. Almost all of the equipment of this grade had the characteristic of being bound after equipping. Therefore, Perfect-grade equipment in the Auction House were all sold at sky-high prices and there were very few of them.
Moreover, under the premise that the attributes of the rewarded equipment were random, the type of equipment could be chosen freely. This meant that there would never be a situation where a Sniper would get a cold weapon or a Pugilist would get a submachine gun. It could also prevent the equipment from overlapping with a certain powerful equipment that the player already had. Therefore, as long as one entered the top thirty, there would be a qualitative improvement in their abilities.
In conclusion, it was not difficult to see that the Dream Company knew which rewards were more valuable to the players. They also knew how to manipulate the players' mentality.
Most of the casual players who participated in this competition were aiming for the thirtieth place. They also understood that it would be difficult to enter the top ten (of course, there were also those who lacked self-awareness and thought that they were invincible even though they were trash. There would never be a lack of idiots in this world). Setting their goal for the top one hundred seemed to be belittling themselves. However, trying to enter the top fifty seemed to be a more reliable goal.
In reality, this goal was also extremely difficult to achieve … because of the existence of professional players.
Take swimming for example. Casual players were like amateurs who swam two or three times a week at most. Professional players were like professional athletes who trained all year round and were always ready for competitions.
When the two met, the result was obvious. Casual players would lose at least eight out of ten rounds.
However, this did not mean that the top 100 spots were all occupied by professional players. After all, among the casual players, there were a few talented players, such as Feng Bujue …
Also, during the preliminaries, it was very likely that two professional players would encounter each other early on, leading to one of them being eliminated early on. Considering that the number of people participating in this competition was expected to exceed six digits, it was hard to say how many pro players would be left after the elimination of over a thousand people. After factoring in the huge difference in base numbers and various accidental factors, it wouldn't be easy for professional players to enter the top 100.
In short, there was still hope for casual players to get into the top 100. However, for the top 30, professional players with absolute strength had a much higher chance.
As for the top ten …
"Players who enter the top 10 to the top 4 will randomly receive 3 Skill Cards corresponding to their highest mastery, 4 Skill Cards corresponding to other mastery, and 5,000 Skill Points."
When Feng Bujue saw the prizes for the top 10 to the top 4, his brain did some calculations. A player's skill bar only had twelve slots. Using himself as an example, since he started the closed beta, he was already level 29. He could not get any rewards from the sandbox, so he had not reached level 30 yet. Currently, he only had nine skills in his skill bar. If he excluded the Geppo and Rankyaku that he had picked up from R2, as well as the useless skills like Stinky Chicken Bullet that would disappear after one use, he only had six. One of them was a title skill that did not take up much of his skill bar.
However, the top 10 reward before him would give him seven Skill Cards, and three of them would be related to the strongest mastery. Compared to equipment, these skills were obviously more comprehensive and long-lasting enhancements. Furthermore, there were still 5,000 Skill Points to be gained. If the players used some Skill Points themselves, they would have enough to purchase perfect equipment from the Thriller Box.
At this point, Brother Jue could not stay calm anymore. However, there were three more rewards that were even more unbelievable.
"The third place winner of the Tournament for the Best will receive 1 Random Legendary Equipment corresponding to their level and 10,000 Skill Points.
"The second place winner of the Tournament for the Best will receive 1 Random Legendary Equipment corresponding to their level and 20,000 Skill Points.
"The winner of the Tournament for the Best will receive a mysterious gift from the Dream Company."
"There are millions of players in Thriller Paradise, and the number of people who signed up for this competition is probably more than 100,000. Even if it's only 100,000, to be able to get into the top three among 100,000 people, they can already be considered monsters. This kind of reward is basically helping the monsters to put on stronger wings and fangs. " Feng Bujue stared at the few rewards for two minutes before he said, "By the way … what is this mysterious gift? It makes me curious …" He paused and scoffed. "Humph … This gaming company sure knows how to have fun. Starting from the top hundred, the value of the prizes has increased exponentially. However, when it comes to the first place, they give out such a weird explanation like a 'mysterious gift' …"
Feng Bujue stretched lazily in the chair. "This is what they mean by 'nothing wins over something'. Nothing wins over something, nothing wins over something, no desire wins over desire, and no sound wins over sound … The prize that we cannot know the content of is the most attractive and priceless. "He really wanted to applaud the Dream Company's plan." Brilliant, this is so damn brilliant! "
"Meow …" Arthas suddenly jumped onto the computer table. It scratched the monitor and meowed.
"Oh? Looks like you agree with your master's opinion. "Feng Bujue teased Arthas.
The tabby cat still had a condescending expression on its face. It glanced at Feng Bujue and meowed twice. Then, it used its front paw to touch the monitor twice.
"What? You think I can get into the top ten? " Feng Bujue picked up Arthas to prevent it from scratching the monitor. "Ha … Then, when I reach level thirty, I'll go and sign up. This is a chance, and I do want to test … how good I am. "
…
At the same time, in the game world, inside Shiva's meeting room.
The top four of [Brahman Studio], [Shiva], [Vishnu], [Brahma], and [Yamaraja] were all gathered together.
"He accepted my friend request, but he soon switched to sleep mode. After that, he did not reply to my messages, and today, he has not been online." Shiva was discussing Feng Bujue with his colleagues. "But I can confirm that on the combat stat ranking that was updated this morning, the anonymous second place is this Feng Bujue."
"Hmm … If he has not logged into the game after the ranking was updated, then the system will use the anonymous method to hide his name on the ranking, so that makes sense," Vishnu said.
Brahma added roughly, "Ha … There is no need to think so much. From how I see it, this is very simple. Boss was originally the second place, and now that he has beaten boss, naturally, he will take the first place. "
Yan Mo rested his chin on his hand and stroked his blue bangs as he mused, "Don't you find it strange? His name was not on the original combat stat ranking. Of the few anonymous people in the top twenty, it was easy to guess who they were; he was not there. Therefore, before the scenario started, he was at least outside the top twenty.
If he was lucky enough to win that Killing Game and relied on the improvement he gained from the scenario to jump to second place, then that would make sense … but based on the boss' description, before the scenario ended, this man's fighting ability was already at the top level. "
Vishnu added, "And he is cunning. You can say that he is good at both fighting and writing …"
"Hmm … I am confused about that as well." Shiva's face was buried in the shadow of his long hair, and he said thoughtfully, "Although he did give some ambiguous explanations before I 'died,' I did not understand what he was talking about at all. The kid is both real and fake, and his words and actions are unpredictable … instead of trying to figure out what he said, why don't we not trust him and rely on our own analysis? " He paused before continuing. "From how I see it, the only logical explanation is that during the course of the scenario, he used some kind of method, perhaps a hidden quest, to pick up a very powerful skill or item, to greatly increase his power."
"You have a point …" Yama nodded. "He captured Robin alive, challenged the Net, and obtained Mr. Freeze's equipment. All these actions show that he has a high use of the resources in the scenario."
Shiva continued. "Therefore, he killed the Shadow King and defeated me … and Seven Kills was obviously not his match. When Shiva died and left the scenario, he had no idea that Seven Kills had obtained the Batman suit, so he believed that Feng Bujue would win easily." He sighed. "The day before the announcement of the Tournament for the Best, such a strong player suddenly appeared … this is not something to be happy about."
Brahma laughed. "Boss, didn't he agree to add you as a friend? This means that he has the potential to be recruited. His guild … is called Underworld Frontline or something. I've never heard of it. It's probably just a small guild for casual players. At most, we can ask them to join Brahman. "
Vishnu immediately said, "The big guy has finally learned how to use his brain."
"Who are you talking about?" Brahma replied.
Vishnu smiled and ignored him. Instead, he continued, "As the saying goes, it's easy to get a thousand gold coins, but hard to find a good general. This man is both smart and brave, a rare talent. If he can join Brahman, when we fight against Regulation in the future, we will have another hidden trump card. "He pointed at Brahma and said," I think the big guy's plan is feasible. Even if Underworld Frontline is filled with newbies, for this Feng Bujue, we should accept it and recruit them all. "
"I understand that … but …" Shiva hesitated, and the words in his heart were, 'I suspect this man has a mental problem.'
"Never mind …" Shiva swallowed the unreliable words and said seriously, "After he comes online and replies to my message, I'll talk to him in person."
