Feng Bujue finished reading the settlement list. His level hadn't increased; he was still level 11, but his experience had reached 4900/1000, and he had 77,000 game coins. It seemed that his previous worry about leveling up too quickly was completely unnecessary. In fact, he wasn't leveling up fast enough.
This experience gain could be considered satisfactory. The Skill Value bonus experience and game coins gained in Team Survival mode were calculated at ten times and a hundred times the Skill Value, respectively, while Single Survival mode was only one time and ten times, a huge difference. Also, the length of the game determined the amount of experience gained to some extent. For example, this script took about an hour longer than the one Feng Bujue had experienced before. Although the difficulty wasn't high (scripts with a low combat ratio weren't difficult for Feng Bujue), the final basic experience was slightly higher than the previous script.
Even so, these experience points were far from enough for Feng Bujue to level up. Without unlocking the worldview, it usually took four to five team scripts of similar difficulty to level up once.
This showed that the members of those studios had a hard time too. From the start of the closed beta at 8:00 AM on April 4th to around 0:00 AM on April 6th, there were about forty hours of real time, which translated into game time in the two modes. Subtracting the required logout time… it meant they fought for about five days in the virtual world to reach level twenty.
Feng Bujue's total game time in the virtual world was less than ten hours. Compared to the pros, he was just starting out.
"Hmm... it's better to take the experience points this time," Feng Bujue muttered. "Xiao Tan's level will basically always be one or two levels behind me... But after the open beta, he can buy some experience cards and bonus cards, and he should catch up quickly." He thought, "Speaking of which... Although leveling up is slower after level eleven, the level gap within five levels doesn't mean much in the closed beta... There's only a difference of 500 Stamina between level ten and level fifteen players. Getting equipment can significantly change strength in a short time, but improving specializations and increasing skills seems to be the long-term solution. Like..." What appeared in his mind was Si Yu Ruo Li's figure as she flew and slashed with her sword, "Her level isn't much higher than mine, but her skill... Her Fighting specialization must be at least D."
Thinking of this, Feng Bujue opened the game menu and looked at his specializations. After the last script, his specializations had become: General E, Device E, Investigation E, Fighting E, Shooting F. Only Medical remained unopened.
In short, he had raised all four F-level specializations except for Shooting by one level.
[E: Poor, Entry Level, When This Level is Reached, the Success Rate of Activating Skills in This System is 40%]
So far, Feng Bujue knew a little about everything except for the Medical specialization, but none of them were particularly outstanding, which made his combat ability questionable.
In addition, his title, [Cold-Blooded Headshot Maniac], hadn't changed after this script, so his special ability was still [Concussion].
After Feng Bujue finished reading the system list, he came to the metal room outside the elevator. This time, there were three glass columns in the metal room: the random skill from the completion reward, the optional reward for the fear rating, and the random equipment from the hidden mission.
He first went to the optional reward, and a prompt immediately sounded: [Please Select Your Additional Reward: 1. Randomly Draw a Piece of Equipment Corresponding to Your Level, 2. 50000 Game Coins (Maximum), 3. 4400 Experience Points]
"It seems that as long as you get the Dauntless rating above level ten, the game coin option will always be 50000..." Feng Bujue murmured.
In this period when game coins were useless and the market for game coins to RMB exchange rates was unclear, he wasn't considering buying them for the time being. This time, he decisively chose experience points. After receiving 40% of the current level's experience, Feng Bujue's experience reached 9300/1000. He should be able to reach level twelve after completing another script.
Then, he came to the glass column for the completion reward, took out the random skill card from inside, and checked it through the menu:
[Name: Brat's Low Sweep Kick]
[Skill Card Attribute: Active Skill, Disappears After Three Uses]
[Skill Category: Fighting]
[Effect: Ignores Specialization Level, 100% Trips All Monsters That Can Theoretically Fall, and Provokes the Opponent to Attack You]
[Consumption: 100 Stamina]
[Learning Condition: Fighting Specialization F or Level 10 or Higher]
[Note: You're doing Blue Cat Naughty 3000 Kicks!]
"What the hell..." Feng Bujue looked at the skill card for a long time. The name and the note were unbelievable, but the effect of this skill seemed quite strong.
Feng Bujue thought for a while and decided to equip it. This kind of spoof skill wasn't the type that could be sold after the open beta. Giving it to others... seemed to be a case of doing to others what you don't want done to yourself.
After equipping this move, he could be considered to have an active skill that could be used in combat. Then, Feng Bujue came to the last glass column, hoping that his unlucky character wouldn't continue.
But he had a feeling in his heart. The hidden mission reward on the settlement screen was "Randomly Obtain a Superior Grade Equipment," but it didn't say "Corresponding to Your Level." This meant the equipment was at least Superior grade, but he might not be able to equip it.
White light materialized, and a piece of equipment resembling a belt appeared inside. Feng Bujue's first reaction was... it might be Batman's utility belt. But he was wrong. This item was even stronger.
[Name: Echo Armor]
[Type: Armor]
[Quality: Superior]
[Defense: Relatively Strong]
[Attribute: Buffer]
[Special Effect: None]
[Equipment Condition: General Specialization C or Device Specialization D]
[Note: After collecting some whispers from Black Bolt, Doctor Doom used this huge energy to create this device. The user can open the belt to gain a suit of invisible "sound" armor.]
This equipment was very strong, but Feng Bujue couldn't equip it yet. However, he still put it in his inventory to carry with him. Anyway, his Device specialization was already E. In the next script, he would try to raise it to D level so he could wear it immediately.
Currently, his inventory capacity was 7/10. The items inside were: Mario's Pipe Wrench, Eyes of Hatred, Western Kitchen Knife, Baseball Bat, Flashlight, M1911A1 Pistol, Echo Armor.
Jazz Dance was equipped directly on his feet and didn't take up inventory space. The items in the space hadn't changed. There was still a spare flashlight and the jigsaw puzzle piece: Monkey.
After taking the rewards and preparing everything, Feng Bujue returned to the elevator and called Wang Tanzhi. Xiao Tan transferred the captaincy to Feng Bujue, and then the two joined a new queue, ready to enter the second Team Survival script of the night.
