Hu Die Lan
Chapter 272 Champion's Prize (Part 2)
The six members of Young Master Elite Squad left the small Thunder Tavern private room to find many patrons outside, all loudly discussing the results of the competition. The biggest topic was envy for the six members of Young Master Elite Squad and their feat of winning ten rewards. The six were secretly pleased to hear this, but their faces remained expressionless, and they passed through the crowd with a show of aloofness.
The free distribution of rewards had to be collected at the Mercenary Guild. It was quite lively here, with people from the Black Hand Mercenary Group and the Water Flower Mercenary Group present. Because it was a free distribution, it was easy to create internal disharmony. So both mercenary groups had called everyone to the scene to announce the equipment to everyone first, and then everyone would discuss and agree on a unified distribution, trying to ensure that everyone had no objections, or at least no apparent objections.
The arrival of the Young Master Elite Squad created a different atmosphere. Six people with five pieces of equipment was easy to divide; they didn't have the tense and embarrassed look of the other two mercenary groups.
The Black Hand Mercenary Group members hated these six guys in their hearts but couldn't do anything about it. Losing the competition was losing; using it as an excuse to provoke trouble was too dishonorable. If you were going to provoke, you had to do it secretly; being blatant wouldn't get public support.
However, a war of words was still possible. Seeing the six, Upstream of Water Flower and Black Finger of Black Hand came over together, with the little priest Moonlight Confession trailing behind.
"Congratulations!" both sides said the same words.
"Congratulations to you too!" said Han Jia Gongzi.
Upstream was certainly happy; he had won third place, otherwise, he wouldn't have received any rewards. Black Finger was less pleased. Hearing Han Jia Gongzi's words, it sounded like mockery.
Of course, since they were offering congratulations on the surface, Black Finger couldn't say anything. He looked over the six and asked, "I wonder who lost his virginity at the last moment!"
mLgB!! Gu Fei cursed inwardly, but at this moment, even the Young Master Elite Squad glared at him with contempt, deeply betraying him.
When Black Finger saw that it was actually Gu Fei, he felt very relieved. There was a chorus of cheers from the Black Hand Mercenary Group, as if they had won first place.
Then there were no more words; everyone had their own serious business to attend to. After the two mercenary groups received their equipment, they went to the side to distribute it pitifully. The Young Master Elite Squad entered the building, arrogantly collected their five pieces, and began to negotiate. After all, one of the six would not get a prize, and they had to discuss it.
"Wu Shang didn't get a prize just now, let's give him one!" said Han Jia Gongzi.
Before anyone else could express their opinion, Zhan Wu Shang nodded his head like a grandson: "Of course, of course!"
"Alright, it's none of your business. You still want two!" Han Jia Gongzi looked down on Zhan Wu Shang's continued pleading look.
"Scram, shameless bastard," the others cursed together.
Han Jia Gongzi's eyes shone as he swept over the remaining five, finally landing on Gu Fei: "Qian Li made a greater contribution, and just now the reward was a pseudo-supreme item, let him pick one first!"
Of course, the others had no objections. Zhan Wu Shang was in pain: "What about me? What about me? I haven't picked yet?"
"Scram, shameless bastard!" the others cursed.
"Giving you one is out of sympathy! Otherwise, you wouldn't have a share. You still want to pick!" Yu Tian Shen Ming looked down on him.
Zhan Wu Shang was depressed! He was the number one warrior in online games, but he had no status in this elite squad. But he had to admit that what Yu Tian Shen Ming said was extremely correct. The previous distribution was done by the system; those who didn't get a share should consider themselves unlucky. Then the free distribution should be based on merit, and the three speed-type guys were the main force in killing enemies, while the other two were in charge of command and intelligence. According to the degree of contribution, the five rewards were indeed not Zhan Wu Shang's turn. This was most directly reflected in the points book kept by Jian Gui.
Zhan Wu Shang didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only crane his neck to watch Han Jia Gongzi reveal the five prizes.
Before anyone could see them clearly, Han Jia Gongzi had already grabbed one and stuffed it to Gu Fei: "Don't pick anymore, just this one, take it."
"What is it?" Gu Fei took it blankly and saw that it was a scroll, an electric-type spell, Palm Thunder.
"Oh!" Everyone understood, this thing could only be given to Gu Fei! It was useless for others to take it!
With this little interlude, everyone suddenly realized that it was too simple for their little team to distribute prizes. Six people with six professions, whoever was suitable took it and used it, there was no controversy at all.
Zhan Wu Shang immediately became nervous. If the remaining four items didn't have anything suitable for warriors, he wouldn't be able to force it, would he?
Han Jia Gongzi was slow, slow, and didn't announce the four prizes for a long time. The others finally went crazy!
"Can't you f***ing hurry up!!!" a roar of voices.
"Hahahaha!" Han Jia Gongzi laughed triumphantly, looking at the others' anxious appearances.
This was too bad... Just as everyone was thinking this, Han Jia Gongzi handed out the four items in all directions, and the equipment was already distributed.
"If I had known this, why bother discussing it? Wouldn't it be over if everyone took what they needed?" Han Jia Gongzi said lightly. At this time, the other five had one item each, which meant that Han Jia Gongzi did not receive a free distribution prize.
"This, this..." The others were a little embarrassed. To be honest, Han Jia Gongzi had made a great contribution. Without him, the Young Master Elite Squad would have been eliminated in who knows which round.
"Based on my brilliant command, it wouldn't be too much to give me all the prizes, but unfortunately, they are all used by you trash professions," said Han Jia Gongzi.
Trash professions... @#¥%&
The little bit of embarrassment everyone felt towards Han Jia Gongzi had disappeared. Everyone buried their heads and looked at their rewards.
The professional division of free rewards was very clear. There were no items without obvious professional characteristics like Gu Fei's pseudo-supreme ring. It seemed that the system was kind, and this kind of reward with obvious professional divisions could obviously help players avoid many disputes. No matter how great a mage's contribution was, they wouldn't have the face to snatch a priest's skill scroll, would they?
Five rewards. Except for Gu Fei's Palm Thunder, Jian Gui got a rogue's cloak, Cloak of the Night Walker, Agility +10, Strength +10, 10% chance to forcibly enter stealth when attacked, automatically restores health in stealth.
You Ge also got a skill scroll, Cruel Cut, a dark knight skill, deals 1.5 times the damage of a normal attack, and has a certain chance to create wounds.
Zhan Wu Shang also got a skill scroll, Skill Berserk, a berserker skill, enters a berserk state, attack increases by 1.5 times, defense decreases by 50%, duration 30 seconds.
Yu Tian Shen Ming wore a mournful face; he got another bow. "System, you bastard!" Yu Tian Shen Ming cursed and was about to throw the bow on the ground, but was held down by everyone. "Look, look!" everyone shouted.
Bow of Lianzhis, Agility +10, Strength +10, Attack Enhancement +10%, Firing Rate +30%, Double Shot Enhancement 30%.
"This, this... um, not bad, each has its own strengths, each has its own strengths..." everyone comforted vaguely.
"Yu Tian, you should carry three bows on your body from now on, use whichever one you need, a professional archer!" Zhan Wu Shang laughed.
The rewards were all distributed. Looking at the ten items together, the most valuable was obviously Han Jia Gongzi's Angel's Cunning. Although skill weapons also had to be judged for their advantages and disadvantages based on the skill, this kind of unfamiliar skill had not been tested, so it was difficult to evaluate.
Similarly, Gu Fei, You Ge, and Zhan Wu Shang got skill books, which also had to be judged for their advantages and disadvantages after using the skills. In comparison, Jian Gui's Cloak of the Night Walker was really good, automatically restores health in stealth... Although it didn't clearly state how much, just this line was enough to make people drool.
However, these experts were still somewhat disappointed. Because after seeing Gu Fei's Dark Night Flowing Light Sword and the Long Lament and Short Sigh that Jian Gui was using now, everyone's dream was to have this kind of equipment that surpassed their level. But it was obvious that the system would not deliberately create such avant-garde, heaven-defying players.
Today, to wait for this final reward, they had stayed up until the end of the guild war, which was much later than Gu Fei's usual log-off time. After leaving the Mercenary Guild, Gu Fei said goodbye to the others and logged off first.
You Ge and Zhan Wu Shang went to try out their new skills together. Jian Gui also changed into his new equipment to grind monsters. Han Jia Gongzi checked his pockets and went to the tavern to replenish his ammunition first, while Yu Tian Shen Ming continued to be sad while holding three bows.
That night, the gossip fire in the forums was burning fiercely. Players from all over the world and from all major cities gathered here to discuss the large number of rewards issued in this mission, and everyone was envious. For ordinary players, these were already supreme items that were hard to come by on weekdays. How many people had never even thought about the level of the Dark Night Flowing Light Sword?
The official website seized the opportunity of this competition to promote the game and created a collection of wonderful videos of the competition. Players learned that they had been secretly filmed during the competition and had inexplicably become advertising actors for the game company. However, in post-production, all players' appearances would be erased and replaced with a unified generic face.
The videos were edited and arranged in the later stages, and each one was wonderful. Especially the video of the mage in Cloud End City fighting against many enemies, which ranked high in the click rankings. The mage in the video wore a black robe and held a purple sword. The use of Twin Flames Injury amazed the players. What was even more frightening was that this person clearly added a lot of agility, but he had high magic damage that was both fast and brilliant. Many players questioned whether this video was a fake advertisement by the game company. But soon, players from Cloud End City came forward to confirm that this person was the real deal, the same guy who used a single blade to slash eight rogues, triggering a debate about melee mages.
"This person is still alive..." The public beta players who remembered the incident at the time sighed with emotion.
