Chapter 697: Hidden Mission

This answer made Cheng Yu instantly relieved.

When he asked a lot of questions just now, Cheng Yu felt that the performance of the system today was really a little wrong, how could a system that has always been rigorous be ambiguous on so many issues at the same time?

According to his understanding of the system, Cheng Yu knew that there must be a problem here, and he thought of the hidden tasks that might exist here.

There are certainly many ways to complete a task, or to achieve the only result required by the task. It's as if two points can be connected by an infinite number of line segments, but this is not a reason for ambiguity in the presentation of the mission.

Of course, the system will not interfere with Cheng Yu's way to complete the task, it is only responsible for proposing limits and expressing the results that the task needs to achieve, and because of this, the task result must be confirmed uniquely. Now that the results of the mission are blurred, there must be something going on here.

Cheng Yu thought, will there be some hidden missions in the game?

Although Cheng Yu rarely plays online games, he has seen pigs run even if he has never eaten pork, and he has never listened to classmates and friends talk about the topics in the game before, not to mention that he himself has more or less practiced it a few times.

Cheng Yu knows that in online games, when you place a dungeon, you need to accept tasks. Once the quest is completed, there will be a different task score.

There are many factors related to the score, such as the completion time, the casualties of your own team, etc., and what really affects the final mission reward is whether other side quests are triggered during the completion of the main quest, or even hidden quests.

In the forums of those online games, there are often many copies of the perfect clearance strategy. Perfection is the ultimate level of achievement when it comes to task scoring and rewards. In order to do this, it is necessary to fully develop all the straight and even hidden tasks, and complete them in a short enough time, etc.

But all in all, side quests and hidden quests must be enabled, otherwise, even if you complete the main quest just after entering the dungeon and it only takes a second to finish the dungeon, you will not be able to get a perfect clearance.

In the game dungeon, completing the main quest is the result of the dungeon, and the result is so clear that there will be many unpredictable side quests, hidden quests, etc., Cheng Yu's current quests, the results of the quests are still vague, and it would be strange if there were no additional rewards here.

Especially when the system repeatedly hinted that Cheng Yu should not kill people or kill as little as possible, at least when facing the culprit, do not use murder to solve it, Cheng Yu naturally realized this.

Not to mention that during the conversation, the system also repeatedly reminded Cheng Yu that the authority was not enough, but when Cheng Yu analyzed that Zhuang Yi might have more than one son, the system said that the permission was unlocked, which made Cheng Yu realize that as long as he touched the key to a certain problem, then the permission of the corresponding problem might follow.

Only in this way can it conform to the basic logic that the system must answer the host's questions about the task when the task is released.

"The host has finally fully understood the mystery of this mission.

Yes, the host will face an unprecedented crisis in the mission it undertakes, not only to eliminate the recalcitrant criminals, but also to screen the potential identities of these criminals, so as to impose different punishments on different criminals to ensure that they pay the appropriate price for the crimes they committed.

As the difficulty of the mission increases, so do the rewards.

To this end, the system prepares a clue for the host, and in the description of the mission content, the number of culprits mentioned is a total of five.

But which five people are specific depends on the host's own screening. Each time the host identifies a culprit, they will receive an additional 500 points on top of completing the task. You can earn up to 2,500 points.

If the host's means of punishing these culprits can finally be positively evaluated by the system, they will be able to obtain an additional 20% of the task reward score after completing the task.

In other words, if the host can punish these five culprits in a positive way by the system, then the final score reward of the host can be doubled again. ”

Cheng Yu nodded, and Xindao finally understood, and thus obtained the key number of people data.

In the primary task stage, when the task duration is finally converted into a task reward score, if it only takes less than half of the task time to complete it for a long time, you can get twice the point reward of the remaining task time, and if you can punish the five culprits in a way that life is worse than death this time, then Cheng Yu can double this point.

That's okay.

Cheng Yu's reaction was not unpleasant, he had already figured out that the so-called way of the system to express affirmation must be more brutal than directly killing those people, otherwise, wouldn't it be better to kill them directly?

Of course, the specific means to be used remains to be discovered by Cheng Yu.

"Alright, host, you've got all the answers you want to know this time, can this conversation be over?" the system asked dryly.

Cheng Yu just wanted to say that it was over, but suddenly realized a problem.

"Don't worry, there's another question. Identifying the culprit, each person will bring 500 points, what if I don't identify them? Just kill them as ordinary criminals, how can this be calculated? Is there any additional punishment?"

The system was faint, and actually sighed.

"The host is wise. ”

Compared to the host wisdom just now, although this time it is the same four words, the tone is completely different.

Cheng Yu can tell that the host before is wise, in fact, the system is happy to see it, that is to say, the system actually hopes that Cheng Yu can discover the existence of this hidden task. This also means that the system hopes that those five people can get a more painful punishment than death.

After all, Cheng Yu can now earn one hundred and fifty points for every person he kills with firearms, even if he deducts the loss of points caused by the continuous effect of firearms, this part of the reward points must be at least one hundred and thirty points. Letting go of a culprit seems that he has gained 500 points, but the difficulty of the task has obviously increased a lot, and Cheng Yu's actual increase in points is only more than 300 points.

Not to mention that Cheng Yu will design a punishment for these culprits in the future, in today's society, unlike hundreds of years ago, people could be locked in their own private prisons and find a group of people to torture them.

If it weren't for the fact that the points rewarded for the entire task might increase exponentially, Cheng Yu might not be willing to trouble himself so much.

But since the system wants Cheng Yu to complete the task in another way, it is impossible not to impose certain restrictions on Cheng Yu's behavior.

When the tone of the system when he said the words "host wise" completely changed this time, Cheng Yu knew that he still had to come after all.

"Anyway, what kind of punishment will there be if you fail to identify those people?"

"There is no culprit and no punishment. But when the host finally lets these people get the fate they deserve, it will produce three corresponding states. These three states correspond to the positive state of the system, the default state of the system, and the negative state of the system.

In the affirmative state, I have already told the host that the host will receive an additional reward of 20% of the final score.

By default, the host's final score reward will not be affected in any way.

In the negative state, sorry, the host's final rating reward will be deducted 30% as a punishment.

Once the four culprits are in a negative state, the host should be able to imagine that the host's mission will be judged a failure. ”

"Don't ask, kill them directly, it must be a negative state of the system!" Cheng Yu asked with raised eyebrows.

The system sighed faintly again and said, "This point does not need to be explained to the host in the first place. But now that the host has confirmed this, well, I can tell the host that a direct kill must be in a state of negation of the system. ”

Although the reward is only 20 percent, and the punishment is 30 percent, there are actually quite a few notches to spit out.

But Cheng Yu thought about it and was too lazy to vomit. The reason is very simple, this is just a complaint at most, and it is impossible to change the way of the task, because the reason why the system will formulate this unequal reward and punishment method is to force Cheng Yu to identify the five culprits from the perspective of the basis of task completion, and adopt a punishment method that is at least the "default state".

This is the obvious tendency of the system in this mission, because Cheng Yu understands that no matter how much he argues, the system will not be able to change this rule.

Rather than this, then Cheng Yu might as well honestly find out at least two culprits and punish them in an extremely inhumane and violent way. In this way, at most, he will lose half of the task reward score (the reason is that if you find two people, you will get 40% of the additional reward, and if you miss three people, you will be deducted 90% of the task reward, and after adding or subtracting it, you will get the remaining 50% of the reward). I didn't expect to be able to read my book and learn math, knowledge points, brothers!).

Of course, on the premise that it is not so difficult to do, it is better to find out as many as possible, find out three and the rewards and punishments will be equal, and find out four, at least 50% of the reward can be increased.

Fortunately, Cheng Yu has already made some judgments in his heart about the candidates of these five people, no matter what, Maxim must be one of the five, which means that Cheng Yu only needs to find at least one more culprit.

And the second culprit will not be too difficult to find, Maxim's most capable men, or the leader of the "kidnapping case" eight years ago, can almost be placed in this position.

And in the description of this mission, only the rescue of Zhuang Yi's heirs is mentioned, and to his wife, it is said that it is a loss. This means that Zhuang Yi's wife must have passed away.

Of course, Cheng Yu would not think that Zhuang Yi's wife died of natural causes, so the person who killed Zhuang Yi's wife, if it wasn't Maxim himself, would definitely be one. Even those who tortured Zhuang Yi's wife and his wife during the period from the captivity of his wife and children to his death will also be among them.

The only regret is that this person may be the same as the first two people.
