Extraordinary Player

Chapter 38: So Many Rewards, I Can’t Hold Them All

[Map of Trials 3: Developer’s Difficulty Level mode cleared]

[Results: 0 pts. Time: 5.2s]

“Nice!”

Qin Guan clenched his fists and shouted excitedly.

The results represented his remaining HP. Zero points meant that he died in the trial. Before he could last until ten seconds, that score would continuously remain at zero.

However, since he lasted for five seconds, this meant that he had finally cleared the third map.

Qin Guan suddenly felt a very intimate connection with the useless person’s body, the fruit knife, and the wooden pot lid.

In the beginning, he had regarded his equipment in great disdain, but at that moment, he understood why the pro chose it. It was the best equipment! Just as expected of the pro!

Once Qin Guan cleared the three basic trials, he suddenly felt that he had become different.

This feeling did not come from his stats increasing. Instead, he felt like he himself had become stronger.

“So, I can change the name for Map of Trials 3 now. Come, let me see what your default name is.”

Qin Guan clicked the Developer’s Mode button for Map of Trials and clicked one more time on the [Rename] button.

“If You’re a Man, Last for Five Seconds”

“Hahahaha! What the heck is with the name, it’s so provocative, but it’s very relevant. I mean, the goal of the game is to last for five seconds, right?”

Qin Guan clicked [Confirm], and the name for Map of Trials 3 changed.

“Hmm… So what I need to do now is to open all the chests. I knew it, the chests will always be there. It’s just a matter of time before I can open them.”

Qin Guan opened the reward screen and rubbed his hands in excitement.

All three of the trials had seven levels of difficulty, and his completion rate for all three was around 60%. This meant that he could only open the bronze chests.

A little bit of calculation let him know that he had a total of twenty-one chests to open.

However, he had already opened the three bronze chests from Medium Mode, and they gave him the useless person’s body, the fruit knife, and the wooden pot lid.

With great anticipation, Qin Guan opened the remaining chests one by one.

Novice Mode: Blank Talisman x3

Easy Mode: Spirit Art Fragment x1

Medium Mode: Received

Hard Mode: Necklace of Distress x1

Despair Mode: Free stat point x1

Crazy Mode: Lottery Ticket x1

Developer’s Difficult Level Mode: Diamond Lottery Ticket x1

Since there were three trials, Qin Guan received all the above rewards besides the rewards from Medium Mode thrice. Once he opened all the chests, Qin Guan was in an extremely good mood.

The rewards piled up into a small hill in the world in his mind. Qin Guan focused his attention and observed the descriptions.

[Blank Talisman: You can place a non-sentient ‘spirit’ in it.]

[Spirit Art Fragment: Once you gather ten Spirit Art Fragments, you can obtain a random Spirit Art.]

[Necklace of Distress: Once worn, it has a chance to block a spirit attack for its user. Single use item.]

[Free stat point: You will gain an extra stat point after you use this item. You may add this stat point to any of the three basic attributes as you like.]

[Lottery Ticket: Once you use it, you may receive a reward at random.]

[Diamond Lottery Ticket: -]

Qin Guan scowled. “What’s with the two dashes for the last item? Did they forget to write the description or something? Could you be a little more serious when you write your descriptions, like really?”

Qin Guan looked at the rewards. He did not know how to use the talismans for the time being, and he did not have enough Spirit Art Fragments. Because of that, he put away those two items for the time being.

The Necklace of Distress looked quite useful. He clasped one around his neck while putting away the other two.

Finally, Qin Guan opened his attribute tab. He wanted to add the three free status points to one of his attributes.

But once he opened his attribute tab, he found that he was already at level four. He now had six free status points.

Every single time he completed a trial, he would gain a level, and once he leveled up, he would gain a free status point.

When the status points he gained from leveling up and the status points he gained from the reward chests were added up, he had six of them in total.

“I’ll definitely add some to luck. There’s no other choice to it. Oh, I can’t add my stat points to the hidden attributes?

“Then I’ll add them all to STR. Don’t we always say that we should use our fists to solve whatever problems we face? If I don’t have enough STR, how can I be considered a ruffian who solves things with violence?”

Qin Guan used all six of his free status points on STR.

Because of it, it grew to 11.

Useless person character had no shortcomings, which meant that he could choose to develop his character in any way he liked, unlike those who started the game with the athlete character. Before they added they could add status points to their STR, they would have to spend some on their SS to bump it up until it was around five.

SS was like a support attribute. It could not directly increase fighting power, so they only needed to add status points to it until it was sufficient for their use. They did not need to treat it like their main attribute and add a lot of status points to it.

STR and SPR represented the physical and magic systems respectively. They also represented two different development paths.

STR was not limited to just brute strength. It was a combination of dexterity, health, speed, defence, and the other physical characteristics. It represented the comprehensive qualities of a body.

To Qin Guan, his current advantage lay in close-quarter combat. The three basic trials were all related to combat, and if he added all his status points to STR first, he could maximize his advantage and increase his fighting power to its greatest level.

As for SPR and SS, he would definitely add status points to these two attributes in the future, but he would only do so when the need arose. At that moment, he did not have any Spirit Arts he could use, and his second sight was good enough for the time being. If he added any status points to those two attributes right then, it would be a waste.

It was also meaningless for him to stack up status points because he would definitely get more status points in the future. If he did not use them now, when was he supposed to use them, when he ran into danger? If he increased his STR to twenty in an instant and had all his physical attributes improve, could he get used to it within a few minutes?

Hence, Qin Guan decided to first add all of his status points to STR. Once it was around twenty, he would add status points to the other attributes as well.

Then came the most important part of the rewards.

Qin Guan stared at the three Lottery Tickets and three Diamond Lottery Tickets, and he wondered whether he should go out and wash his hands to wash away all his bad luck first.

“I feel like my hands are shaking from excitement here…”

Qin Guan felt rather perplexed by his reaction. He was not a person with incredible luck, so why should he be so excited about the Lottery Tickets?

Once he calmed down a little, he first used a normal Lottery Ticket.

It was engulfed in a faint blue flame, and after a moment, a round gray plate landed in front of Qin Guan.

[Razor-Sharp (Class 1 Spirit Seal): Physical damage of sharp weapons increased by 3%. Instructions: Put the seal on any part of the body.]

“Hmm? This item seems to be very useful. Even though it only adds 3% to my damage, the fact that it can add damage is already a very good thing…”

Qin Guan toyed around with the round gray plate. There was a rather abstract mark on it that resembled the shape of a blade.

Based on the description, he pushed the round gray plate against his right forearm. When he brought it down, he noticed that the blade-shaped mark was branded on his forearm.

The round plate then shattered into several pieces, making it impossible to use it again.

“Looks like it’s a single use item. Not bad, my luck is pretty good. Let’s continue using the Lottery Tickets.”

Qin Guan brought out another normal Lottery Ticket. Once he used it, his face grew a little darker upon seeing the reward. He had obtained two Spirit Art Fragments.

“I got the reward from Easy Mode using a reward from Crazy Mode. My luck is really…

“Oh well, my hidden attribute did mention that my luck is occasionally good, and at other times bad.”

Qin Guan brought out his final normal Lottery Ticket. This time, he was rewarded with a talisman.

“Excuse me?! Hey, you can’t troll me like this! Ah, this is going overboard. I got a talisman from Novice Mode with a reward from Crazy Mode?! And I only got ONE?!

“Oh, wait, this talisman seems different…”

Qin Guan looked at it carefully, and he found that the talisman he received was indeed different from the ones he got from Novice Mode.

The item he received from the chests in Novice Mode was called Blank Talisman, but the one he received from the lottery was called HP Replenishing Talisman (Dragon Blood).

[HP Replenishing Talisman (Dragon Blood): A talisman containing the energy from the blood of a dragon. Once you use it, you can recover a large amount of HP.]

“There’s something like this as well? Based on the descriptions, the talismans are blank pieces of paper that act as carriers. I can use them to collect various items which will give the talisman unique abilities.

“Then this is a valuable item. I’ll have to keep it.”

Once he received all the conventional rewards, Qin Guan felt quite satisfied.

The conventional rewards were items that the others could receive as well. As long as they cleared the corresponding level of difficulty, they could get the rewards.

However, they could not get the reward for Developer’s Difficulty Level mode.

Qin Guan stared at the Diamond Lottery Tickets with anticipation burning in him. He did not know what he would get.

Activate!

Activate!

Activate!

He activated all three Diamond Lottery Tickets in one go, and the result stunned him, because he received the same item from all three Lottery Tickets.

[Random Model Restorer: Once you use it, you can randomly activate a new function in the system (Only for supplementary models).]
