Chapter 287: What should I do next? _1
Stepping out of Tina’s house and into the street, Su Yu found himself momentarily lost.
Now that the main plot has paused, what should his next move be?
“Should I go back to my territory and continue refining materials?” he thought to himself.
Just then, he heard a “ding” sound indicating a private message in the game.
Opening the private chat interface, he found that it was two messages from [Snow Leopard].
Snow Leopard: “Nemesis, how much mission rewards did you get this time?”
Snow Leopard: “Mr. Meng asked me to ask, he apparently wants to ‘face the gap’.”
Su Yu: “[Black man question mark emoji]What? The rewards have been distributed?”
Snow Leopard: “Yeah, haven’t you claimed yours?”
Su Yu: “Uh… no, I haven’t.”
He glanced at his task bar.
The 75th mission of the [Goldfinch Empire] in his task menu still had to be completed. He probably needed to see Alyssa again to receive the formal reward.
Snow Leopard: “Well if you haven’t claimed it yet, it’s no big deal. Just tell us when you do, so that they can drool over it.”
Su Yu: “Sure.”
Snow Leopard: “Also, you’ve earned quite a lot of Military Merits in this campaign, right? Make sure to redeem them quickly, they automatically expire after seven days.”
Su Yu: “Understood.”
After ending the private chat, Su Yu summoned Dima and began walking down the street.
Snow Leopard’s reminder brought to his attention that he still had a lot of Military Merits to exchange for items.
According to the Military Merit redemption list posted on the forum, there was nothing he could exchange for at the Quartermaster’s that would increase his personal strength.
However, he could still exchange them for high-value items to improve the overall strength of mankind.
The journey was a little boring as Dima, as much as it understood human nature, couldn’t carry a conversation. So Su Yu tuned in to the guild channel, planning to chat and shoot the breeze with his guild members.
His guild now maintained around 2000 members, without expanding too much.
The guild members, under Swift’s guidance, were responsible for the management and operation of the entirety of Aphi City, each managing a certain area.
In their spare time, the guild members would also complete missions and level up in the monster areas, just like other players.
Despite limited time for leveling up, they had money! The generous compensation provided by Su Yu, now up to 8 spiritual energy coins per hour, meant that they could earn 64 spiritual energy coins for 8 hours of work a day – more than double what other level 20 players make!
With such lavish compensation, their equipment was much better than other players of the same level, thus increasing their leveling up efficiency.
This time all the guild members basically joined in the main storyline. Now, they were discussing the mission rewards in the guild channel.
Neon Nuclear Wastewater: “Haha, I’m rich! This mission reward gave me 10800 experience points, a green skill book, and a blue 21-level bow! [Biliang Cloud Piercing Bow (Rare)] (Click to view attributes).”
Alcohol Expert on Plum Blossoms: “What? Over ten thousand experience? Why did I only get 5000? And the equipment they gave me is also green.”
Neon Nuclear Wastewater: “Haha, maybe I contributed more.”
Meow Sauce’s Husband: “Envious.”
Nunchaku Fox: “Same here.”
Su Yu: “I’m envious as well, I haven’t received any rewards yet.”
Neon Nuclear Wastewater:
Neon Mutant Man:
Nunchaku Fox:
Soon, lines and lines of ellipsis began to quickly flood the guild channel.
Neon Nuclear Wastewater: “[Old man, subway, mobile phone emoji]Boss Ke, can you stop joking? The picture of your legendary accessory is still up on the official forum!”
Average Neon Godzilla: “Exactly, you already have three legendary accessories, why do you care about our rewards?”
Su Yu: “Haha, just joking, but I really haven’t received my mission reward.”
Su Yu: “I’m almost at the Quartermaster’s now, planning to exchange all my Military Merits for tangible items. Does anyone want anything they don’t have enough Military Merits for? I can exchange them first and we can trade with spiritual energy coins later.”
Neon Nuclear Wastewater: “Boss Ke, you’re at the Quartermaster’s already? Didn’t you watch the guild channel just now?”
Su Yu: “I didn’t, what happened?”
Neon Nuclear Wastewater: “[Facepalm emoji]Nevermind. You should know once you get there.”
Su Yu:
By then, Su Yu had arrived at the armory area, not far from where the Quartermaster was.
However, upon arriving, Su Yu immediately understood what Neon Nuclear Wastewater meant.
The open ground in front of the armory was packed with players, a black mass of people. The Quartermaster himself was swallowed up in the “great sea of the masses.”
At least a thousand people were crowded around the Quartermaster, standing closely together in seven to eight layers of circles.
Although one could open the [Exchange List] and get whatever they want within 40 meters of the Quartermaster, the crowd was just too huge!
At this rate, it would take at least an hour just to squeeze in to exchange items.
Su Yu gave a bitter smile, preparing to temporarily leave and come back later when there were fewer people.
However, the players queuing up noticed Su Yu.
A few of them waved at him and called out loudly: “Boss Ke, are you also here to exchange items?”
With a smile, Su Yu answered: “Yeah, but there are too many people, I’ll come back later!”
“That won’t do!” These players quickly ran over to block Su Yu: “Your time is too valuable. How can we let you waste it?”
Then these players yelled at the crowd, “Make way for Boss Ke. Let him exchange his items first!”
“What? Boss Ke is here?” A murmur rippled through the crowd, and many people turned to look at Su Yu delightedly.
Paying their respects, the players in front of Su Yu squeezed together, creating a narrow passage for him. Through this passage, he could directly enter the area within 40 meters of the Quartermaster.
“This won’t do, I don’t want to be the privileged sort.” Su Yu wanted to decline.
“This isn’t about privilege, Boss Ke.” A player beside him immediately chimed in: “You’ve made such a great contribution to mankind, this is what you deserve!”
“Exactly! If you save time to take another Spiritual Spring Eye, it will contribute more to mankind. What’s our little effort in comparison?”
“Right, Boss Ke. Everyone has moved aside, hurry up and get in! Don’t reject everyone’s good intentions.”
The surrounding players urged him on.
“Well… alright then.” Seeing everyone’s enthusiasm, Su Yu stopped declining and walked towards the Quartermaster along the path they had created.
