I’ll stake a claim here.
Edit in the early morning.
By the dock.
The morning fog spread.
The exhausted group who had escaped from the warehouse collapsed inside the spacious residential building, quietly waiting for the rescue boat to arrive.
Matthew stepped out of the residential building, wiped the damp steps, and sat down next to Bi Fang. Seeing him still fiddling with the drone, he asked curiously, “How is it, can you see clearly?”
Bi Fang let his hands droop and sighed as he handed over the drone, “No luck, it’s too dark, and the fire is reflecting too much. You can only see half a face, no matter how you adjust it, it’s useless.”
Matthew took the drone and, despite tweaking it countless times, still felt regret after learning the situation. He stared at the screen, but still couldn’t make out anything.
The light from the flames cast on the man’s sharp face, creating a mix of sensitivity, with a tall nose casting a shadow. One eye of the man was hidden in the darkness, the other cold and expressionless.
Last night, amidst the massive fire, Bi Fang risked his life to go back and capture footage. He saw the gang leader at a distance of sixty meters use a pistol to finish off a bandit leader and managed to capture half of his side profile.
[With half a face, they should be able to reconstruct it, right? Technology is so advanced now.]
[It’s a bit difficult, this is what I do. It involves light and shadow imaging, three-dimensional lighting, and muscle and skeletal analysis, all of which I’m boasting about.]
[Good lord, I woke up this morning and saw that it made the trending
…
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for completing the mission: Ruins City. Rewards are being issued. Would you like to claim them?]
When Bi Fang woke up again, he was already in the rear of the eastern front of Abbascan, a place not much affected by the war, with well-preserved infrastructure.
Looking at the vast crowd in front of him and the leading officials, Bi Fang felt a headache coming on and put off claiming his rewards.
Anyone would feel groggy if they hadn’t slept for two days and then suddenly slept from dawn until evening, let alone having to deal with a big crowd.
Fortunately, people from Huaxia had also arrived. After briefly dealing with them, Bi Fang had a meal with everyone and then went back to the inn to continue his deep sleep.
It wasn’t until the next morning that Bi Fang’s mind completely cleared up. He gulped down a glass of warm water, sweeping away the fatigue from his body.
“Claim.”
He opened up the System, eager to claim the rewards for this mission.
Steel and concrete, barrages of bullets, the interlacing of cold gray lights and shadows, all eventually dissipated like bubbles.
[Detection: No reward upgrade available. Your final rewards are: 1 Skill Advancement Ticket, 2 Skill Upgrade Coupons, 3 Enhancement Points, 800 Wilderness Points, 1 Breakthrough Mission Indicator (unique and singular).]
The spoils were… decent.
Bi Fang touched his chin. Compared to the previous missions, the earnings this time didn’t seem too high. Was it because of the breakthrough mission?
Bi Fang tried to open the indicator but found it grayed out and unresponsive.
???
What’s going on?
A reward that I can’t use? What kind of reward is that?
Bi Fang was puzzled; this was the first time he had encountered such a situation. Was a reward that couldn’t be used even a reward?
Was there a prerequisite?
Looking at the gray indicator, Bi Fang could only think of this possibility. Helplessly, he decided to use the other rewards, first adding to strength and agility until they both reached fifteen, then prioritizing his physique.
After using two Enhancement Points, Bi Fang tried to enhance his physique to sixteen but was stunned to find that it failed!
The physique stat on his panel hadn’t increased, and the Enhancement Points hadn’t disappeared.
What’s going on, did the System crash? How could this be?
As this was Bi Fang’s first encounter with such a situation, he was somewhat baffled. Could fifteen be the System’s limit? But he didn’t feel anything at all. Was the human limit really that small?
His 100-meter sprint couldn’t even break ten seconds, could that be called a limit?
Just as Bi Fang was confused, he suddenly noticed that the once-gray Breakthrough Mission Indicator had turned gold.
There’s hope!
