Chapter 8: Generous Newbie Quest Rewards
Da-da-da-da!
Poof!
In the dim and narrow alley, a dark figure staggered through quickly, stepping on a low-lying puddle on the side of the road, splashing a cloud of sewage.
Whew!
The figure that was running quickly stopped in the darkness deep in the alley, listening to the sound coming from the darkness, which seemed to be the figure leaning against the wall and gasping for breath.
"System! system! you come out for me!" Lin Rui, who was leaning against the wall and panting heavily, slowly slid down, and at the same time shouted loudly in his mind.
"When!When!When!Congratulations to the host for completing this mission!You're getting closer to becoming a street hero!" In Lin Rui's shout, the system finally responded. Moreover, from its words, it seems that Lin Rui has completed tonight's task.
"Don't tell me that I don't have it! Do you know that I almost died just now?! If I really want to die, to hell with these missions!" Recalling the thrilling scene just now, Lin Rui still had palpitations. If it weren't for the protection of a magic item he had exchanged in the system mall before, it would be hard to say whether he would be able to sit here and talk to the system now.
"Then aren't you okay now?And you have completed the task, it is worth congratulating!" The system ignored Lin Rui's anger and said lightly.
"Yes! I was punched twice! I was shot once! The magic talisman worth a hundred bonus points was consumed like this! I completed this damn novice mission!"
"There's no way around it! I can't be reminded when you complete the main quest, it's the rule. Moreover, you were beaten because you were careless. Thinking it was the last target, he relaxed, and then he was almost scared to death when he took out a gun and pointed it. The system continued to speak indifferently, and his words were full of contempt for Lin Rui.
"Alright, I'm done with today's mission now, so give me the reward. "I didn't continue to fight with the system, what Lin Rui is concerned about now is whether it is worth it for him to fight so hard for life and death.
"OK! If you urged you, then I'll send you the reward. Seeing Lin Rui's request, the system finally became more serious.
Brush!
Then, a bright light flashed in Lin Rui's mind, and a familiar sound of reward points being issued sounded in his mind. At the same time, two items that emitted different lights also appeared in Lin Rui's mind out of thin air. However, at this time, he didn't notice the two items that suddenly appeared, because he was already shocked by the number of reward points issued.
"A thousand points?!a thousand points!It's really a thousand points!!" Seeing that his reward points instantly changed from the original 100 points to more than 1,100 points, Lin Rui couldn't believe it.
Lin Rui didn't know how many tasks he had completed here in the system before, and the reward points that he had worked hard for more than ten years were not as much as he earned in one night today. Although tonight's mission is indeed the most dangerous so far, Lin Rui also feels that the rewards of this mission are too much, and it seems that the system has suddenly become generous.
In fact, Lin Rui didn't know that the reward for this mission was the reward for the novice task in the main quest, and the system couldn't get involved at all. Like the tasks that Lin Rui completed before, they were all released by the system itself, and the reward points and everything were formulated by itself, who knows how much it deducted from it.
"Well?!There are two more items!" Coming back from the instantly increasing reward points, Lin Rui found the two items floating in his mind.
"A copy of the low-level elven clan's holy spring. Effect: It can treat ordinary internal and external injuries and eliminate low-level negative effects, the number of uses: once. ”
"A copy of the low-level Gong Fa Long Teng Gong. Effect: After training, it can improve the physical potential, enhance the upper limit of physique and strength, and obtain the magical internal qi of the East. ”
Looking at the two items, Lin Rui silently read out the small print on the items. Then he froze again. Lin Rui of the Elven Sacred Spring knows it, although it is only the lowest-level healing spring water and not the high-level immortal spring that can save people's lives, but this has already been priced as high as two hundred reward points in the system mall!
"The reward for this mission is so rich! In addition to the thousand reward points, there are two items!System, you didn't make a mistake!?" Lin Rui, who was a little incredulous, asked the system, of course, after putting away the two items.
"That's right, that's all you have for this mission. Why, do you feel that the risk is worth it now?" Of course, the system would not admit that he had deliberately stuck Lin Rui's reward before, and asked in a calm tone.
"Compared with your previous rewards, of course this time is too worthwhile!" Lin Rui replied truthfully.
System: "......" this kid must have found out!
"However, I'm still a little unaccustomed to this! Give me so many rewards at once, won't the next mission be more dangerous?" Just when the system thought that Lin Rui had discovered something, his next words dispelled the system's worries.
"I don't know, the main quest you choose to become a superhero is out of my control. However, I warned you a long time ago that this road is not easy to follow. "The system seems to be still a little regretful because Lin Rui chose to become a superhero.
"Well, it's useless to worry now. Let's think about how to explain it when I go home, it's already eleven o'clock now!And these two fist marks on my face!" The phantom suit on his body quickly dissipated, revealing Lin Rui's wounded face, and he muttered helplessly.
"I think you're good at finding a reason to come home so late, such as which girl you had a good time talking to. As for your wounds, didn't you just get a healing spring? Use that and you'll be healed in no time, and you'll be much healthier than before. Hearing Lin Rui's words, the system lightly put forward his own suggestions. In its opinion, these are small things.
"Talking to my sister so late? Although he was shot in the chest, he was blocked by the protective charm, and it was not a big deal. It's a waste to just use up the healing fountain worth two hundred bonus points, and this thing is obviously disposable, and I want to keep it for future critical moments. Rejecting the system's suggestion, Lin Rui had already leaned on the wall and slowly stood up.
"Then it's up to you, this kind of thing should happen often in the future anyway, you'd better find a better reason. The system stopped talking after one last reminder, it had already said a lot tonight.
"Hey, what is the reason?" Lin Rui, who got up from the ground, thought very distressedly, and then walked out quickly.
Dada~
Dada~
In the dimly lit street, a slightly emaciated man walked slowly down the avenue, he now needed a taxi home.
......
Early the next morning, when Lin Rui was still catching up on sleep in bed, his parents had already found out how late he had come back last night.
Bang bang bang~
"Jackson, are you awake?" Lin Rui's parents discussed, but his mother came up to talk to him about coming back so late last night.
"Woo~ah~Mom?ah!Wait!" Lin Rui, who was woken up by the knock on the door, was confused, and then woke up and hurriedly responded. He didn't want his mother to come in and see the wound on his face, so he had to cover it up.
Lin Rui's mother, who heard her son's voice, didn't knock on the door again, just waited outside quietly, giving her son full privacy.
"Mom, you can come in. After a squirming sound, Lin Rui's voice came from the room.
Card~
"Jackson, you ...... last night Well, what's wrong with you?" Mary, who pushed the door in, was about to ask about Lin Rui's late return from going out last night, but after seeing Lin Rui's appearance, the conversation changed.
At this time, Lin Rui was wearing a plush hat on his head, covering the upper half of his face, and he was wearing a mask underneath, just leaving only a pair of eyes outside.
"Woo!!cough!It's okay, it's just a little cold!" Lin Rui coughed twice and lowered his voice back.
"Oh, did you catch a cold?" Hearing her son's words, Mary hurried closer to take a look, forgetting for a moment what she had come in to ask.
"Mom, it's not serious! It's okay, I'm just worried about infecting you, so I wore a mask. Waving his hand, Lin Rui replied a little nervously.
"By the way, I'm going to be late for class, so I'll go down first. Without giving my mother more opportunities to speak, Lin Rui had already rushed downstairs.
Ten minutes later, Lin Rui was already riding on the bicycle in full gear. And next to him was Tom, and Lin Rui's mother specially called Tom over to accompany him to school.
"Mom, then I'll go first!" Wearing a mask, Lin Rui waved his hand to his mother, who was standing at the door a little worried, and then rode out of the yard, followed by Tom.
"Hey, Jackson, what's wrong with you? Yesterday it was a little weird, and today it's even more invisible, so I don't believe you have a cold. On the way to school, Tom approached Lin Rui and asked in a low voice.
"Hey, actually, I'm injured, you see!" Knowing that he couldn't hide it from Tom, Lin Rui simply uncovered the mask and showed Tom the wound on his face.
"What's the matter? Have you been beaten?I heard you came home late last night!" Tom asked in surprise when he saw the two scars on Lin Rui's face, which were obviously fist prints.
"Don't tell my mom!"
"Don't worry, since I was a child, when have I exposed your secret?"
"Hey, hey, it's my best friend!"
"Did you win, though?"
Lin Rui: "......"
"Of course I won!"
"That's pretty much it!"
