Chapter 460 The Second B-Class Cadre
Aroshia had an A-grade serial quest called [Reboot]. The requirement for the first stage was to guide Aroshia and help her reach B-grade, with a very generous reward. The first stage offered 5.2 million experience points and a chance for a random reward. Han Xiao urgently needed a random reward, and this pleasant surprise invigorated him.
Aroshia herself was special. She said that she had recently dreamed of many familiar scenes, possibly her lost memories. Each time Aroshia died, her memories would reboot, forgetting all her previous experiences. Over time, who knew how many memories had accumulated.
"When you reach the threshold of B-grade, maybe a special change will occur," Han Xiao said.
Due to the unexpected situation, Han Xiao changed his destination and had the spaceship stop at the nearest asteroid.
Aroshia was not a player and was an untraceable Esper. A big commotion might occur during her advancement, so for the sake of stability, he didn't let her advance while the spaceship was moving.
...
Stepping onto solid ground, Aroshia closed her eyes, and her body slowly floated into the air. Beams of dazzling light burst from her body, creating an energy tide within a few hundred meters, and her energy level rose exponentially.
Whoosh—
A gale swept through, kicking up sand and rocks, and the shockwaves continued to spread like ripples.
Around the spaceship, Han Xiao and the others watched Aroshia advancing from a distance, their hair whipped around by the wind, and sand blowing in their faces.
"Quite the spectacle..." Melos shielded his eyes with his hand.
"She's special. She was almost C-grade when she woke up. She has a vast amount of energy hidden in her body. Breaking through to B-grade is a natural process for her, without any difficulty," Han Xiao nodded.
Melos's face twitched. "Am I the only one who thinks breaking through the boundaries is difficult?"
Volga, the boss, patted him on the shoulder earnestly, "Be content."
The light energy, like spreading seawater, quickly filled the space within a few hundred meters. That area became an ocean of light, and Aroshia's energy intensity and range far exceeded her previous limits.
Buzz buzz buzz—
The light suddenly stopped spreading and surged back towards the center point, several times faster. Countless light energies poured into a point in the center, making a rumbling sound, like the howling of a wind tunnel. Rotating light dust condensed into visible gusts of wind, forming a vortex. The center point became brighter and brighter, but at its extreme, it seemed to darken.
The energy within a few hundred meters was all compressed into one point. Then, this point suddenly expanded, bursting into a sky full of light flakes, turning into a faceless light being, its body rippling with surging energy, golden arcs of electricity erupting.
Gradually, under the effect of the Esper power, the energy transformed into matter according to some unknown law. Aroshia's physical body reappeared and floated to the ground.
Opening the analyzer, aimed at Aroshia, the energy level she emitted at this time had exceeded the minimum standard of B grade.
[【Reboot】 Stage 1 Completed]
[You have gained 5.2 million experience]
[Reisda's favorability +5]
"This Reisda must have an unusual relationship with Aroshia, but who exactly is he?" Han Xiao thought to himself.
[You have obtained Random Reward x1]
Suppressing his joy, Han Xiao temporarily stored it in the panel. He walked to Aroshia and asked, "How do you feel?"
Aroshia experienced it for a moment, "I can control more energy."
"I mean other aspects."
"I saw more familiar scenes, too many... my head hurts a bit." Aroshia frowned.
Han Xiao lowered his head, reached out his hands, and rubbed her temples, his fingers gently stroking her brow, letting her relax her brows and relieve the pain, and asked, "Any other feelings?"
"I'm not sure. Some of the places that flashed in my memory seem to be calling me to go there. I have a feeling that if I go to those places, I should be able to remember something..." Aroshia gestured in the air with her fingers, light energy outlining the scenes in her memory, one different location after another.
Han Xiao raised an eyebrow. Originally, Aroshia wasn't curious about the lost parts of her memory, but after entering B-grade, she seemed to awaken a more human side, giving birth to new desires, and her emotional fluctuations were richer than before.
Could it be that as Aroshia's strength increases, her secrets will gradually be revealed?
Just then, a new prompt appeared on the panel.
[【Reboot】]
[Stage 2 Quest: Based on Aroshia's description, go to the various locations in her memory and help her find memory fragments]
[Current Progress: 0/?]
[Reward: 10.3 million experience, Reisda's favorability +10]
[Failure Condition: Aroshia dies]
"The second stage is to help her find some of her memories?" Han Xiao's eyes flashed. Aroshia was so special and definitely had an extraordinary origin. If she regained her memories, it was unknown whether it would be a blessing or a curse.
He felt that Aroshia was very good as she was now. If she restored her memories, her personality would definitely change, and her current state might be difficult to maintain.
For a moment, Han Xiao hesitated.
Perhaps not doing this quest and maintaining the status quo would be the best choice?
In any case, Aroshia was a very good partner, and now she had become the second B-grade cadre of the mercenary group, growing strong and able to be of greater use.
Including Han Xiao himself, there were a total of three B-grades. The mercenary group's rating in the alliance could be improved, and they had one more powerful helper.
However, this should be Aroshia's personal storyline. If he didn't do it, she might remember more memories on her own, and then she might take the initiative to leave. Thinking like this, he still had to do the quest and see what happened.
This second stage quest was similar to treasure hunting. Aroshia could only describe the scenes, while the actual location needed to be found by himself. The interstellar space was vast, like searching for a needle in a haystack, and there were obviously more than one location. Although he didn't have the intelligence for this quest in his previous life, Han Xiao remembered many regional scenes, so searching wouldn't be completely clueless.
"According to the nature of this quest, it definitely won't be completed in a short time. Sigh, I'll leave it to slowly find it. Advancement is the priority now."
Han Xiao patted Aroshia on the back, let her and the others return to the spaceship, and then took off and left the asteroid.
There was still a random reward in the panel. Han Xiao rubbed his hands, took a deep breath, and activated it.
[Randomly drawing...]
[Drawing complete]
[The reward type you have obtained this time is: 【Item】]
Han Xiao's eyes lit up sharply, and his spirits lifted.
There's a chance!!
He subconsciously held his breath, his heart in his throat, extremely nervous.
Time seemed to be stretched, and everything slowed down. Three options were revealed one after another.
[Please select one of the following three items]
[Small Bottle of Potential Potion: Gain an additional 1 Potential Point]
[Mechanical Blueprint x1: Randomly obtain a mechanical blueprint]
[Blank Character Card: Select a character and randomly generate the character's Advent Card, which can only be used once]
Han Xiao's eyes widened, and the breath he was holding instantly leaked out.
Wow, a pile of trash!!
He finally managed to draw the 【Item】 type, and he got this?!
Han Xiao couldn't wait to slam the table crazily.
The flame of hope he just saw was extinguished by a stream of urine in an instant. The ups and downs of life were too exciting!
I want a quest completion card, ah ah ah!!
