Chapter 453 Distributing Rewards
Half an hour later.
Polaris and others finally saw Jack walking out of the headquarters tent in the open space of the military camp, and they hurriedly greeted him.
"Mr. Jack."
"Have you been waiting here for a long time?"
Chen Lun saw a dozen people gathered in front of him and said with a smile.
He held his silver cane and pointed to a tent not far away, which was his personal resting place.
"If you have anything to do, come and tell me."
Dongyang and others opened their mouths, then closed them immediately, followed Jack obediently, and walked into the big tent together.
Although the rain just now made the surrounding ground wet, the tent looked clean and refreshing. The ground was covered with red and white soft blankets, and several folding chairs were randomly placed in the tent around a conference table.
Chen Lun saw that there seemed to be not enough folding chairs in the tent, so he picked up his silver cane and pointed at it casually. Some small teacups placed on the table instantly made a bang sound and turned into various "fat" in the white mist. "Cats", they are lifelike but motionless, like sculptures, following Chen Lun's guidance, they float up and fly to the carpet, acting as benches.
"Everyone, take a seat."
He said to everyone.
Dongyang and others seemed to have long been accustomed to Mr. Jack's various magical methods. After bowing respectfully, they sat on the backs of those "fat cats" with a natural expression.
However, among this group of players, there were some new faces. After sitting down, they stroked the cat's back under the buttocks with some surprise. The soft and real touch of the hair made them feel very strange... Mr. Jack's sequence ability can actually Teacup turns into a cat?
Chen Lun took off his flat-top hat and placed it on the table. He first looked at the three new faces among the players.
The other party is also a top performer in the circus, but has never met Chen Lun before. This time he came with Dongyang and others because they also ranked among the top ten in the "extra tasks".
‘Pumpkin, Claw Hammer, and Invincible Charizard… I don’t have much impression of these three players. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself and said:
"I have seen your performance in the bridgehead, and you have done a good job."
"You are exaggerating, Mr. Jack."
Dongyang, on behalf of everyone, lowered his head slightly and said.
"Excessive humility is actually extreme arrogance, warriors in a foreign land."
Chen Lun is now learning and applying it, and directly tells the players here what General Vance said to him. Coupled with his indifferent face and eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, it gave the dozen or so senior players a feeling of being seen through.
"Okay... Since you are the most outstanding foreign warriors, I will naturally fulfill my promise and give you the rewards you deserve."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and some items appeared on the table.
Immediately, Chen Lun distributed rewards one by one according to the top ten players. Among them, Wei Yin, Su Keying, Dragon King, Tu Tu, Ku Cha Nana and Kuang Ben Kuang did not have enough points to rank in the top ten, so they could only look at the others with regret and envy.
For the basic reward of "Sequence 8 Extraordinary Knowledge", ten players all chose the Destiny System [Soothsayer]... The reason is very simple. Both Jack and Polaris showed the players the power of the Destiny System Extraordinary. , perhaps most of the reasons are due to Jack's own particularity, but this does not prevent them from feeling that the knowledge of the fate system is the most precious.
Whether this knowledge is used or not is a secondary matter. No matter how bad it is, you can still sell it to the black market and get enough money in return.
Even though the game has now reached version 2.0, and the exchange ratio between real credit points and Copper Crow has dropped to 1:10, this knowledge can be sold for at least 1,000 gold pounds, which is 1 million credits.
The third place is Dongyang. In addition to extraordinary knowledge, he will also get a [C-level magic object]. Chen Lun specially selected a palm-sized antique copper pot from Floy's works. It is called [Scorching Dance Partner]. It can pour out flammable oil and increase the power of flames, whether it is applied to fists or weapons. , even soaking bullets or setting traps can work well.
The most important thing is that it is inexhaustible and will replenish itself every seventy-two hours, enough to become Dongyang's core equipment.
"Thank you, Mr. Jack."
Dongyang took the copper pot and rubbed the simple patterns on it fondly. He tried pouring a little and put it on his index finger. He immediately released his sequence ability. The next second, a bright flame burst out, and the tent Everyone inside could feel the hot air waves coming towards their faces.
When the flames went out, everyone looked at him with envy.
Dongyang suddenly felt a little dry in the mouth, and his palms were white and peeling. He understood that this was the price of this strange thing. It would drain the water from his body according to the amount used. Once it is excessive, it would even drain his blood.
"Have some tea."
Chen Lun moved his fingers slightly with a smile, and the teapot on the table flew up on its own. He poured a cup of warm tea into the cup, and then the teacup floated in front of Dongyang.
The latter quickly thanked him, took the cup and drank some water before breathing out.
The player with the second highest score was somewhat beyond Chen Lun's expectations. It was none other than "Pumpkin" among the three new faces. She was a short-haired girl with a stature as petite as Taiyin, but she took the path of flesh and blood.
It was hard for Chen Lun to imagine how such a cute girl would make a man "crash" when she unleashed the sequence ability of [Butcher].
According to his customized reward rules, he gave Pumpkin Girl a piece of Sequence 8 extraordinary knowledge, a decent artifact, and a letter of support from a circus cadre.
Regarding the letter of support, he also asked the other party’s opinion very kindly:
"Which cadre's letter do you want?"
"Antonio."
Pumpkin raised his head and said without hesitation.
She seemed to be prepared and smiled brightly.
“Captain, I want Antonio’s letter of support!”
I don’t know if it was because of the cute appearance of the cow, or because she knew Anton’s amazing fighting ability, so she chose this cadre who was parasitized by the [Super A-Grade Monster-Profane Holy Sword].
"Yeah, no problem."
Chen Lunxuan used a pen to write the name "Antonio" on the envelope and stamped it with his own seal.
When handing over the letter, he smiled and said:
"Anton is learning human language and may not be able to read the entire letter, but it will understand its meaning... Please use the letter properly."
"I know, leader."
Pumpkin didn't know where he learned the imperial etiquette. He bent towards Chen Lun and patted his left chest.
After distributing her rewards, Chen Lun finally turned to look at Polaris with a look of relief on his face.
"You did not disappoint me, Polaris."
"Teacher."
Polaris took a deep breath and lowered his head.
Only his slightly clenched fists told everyone that he was very excited at the moment.
Chen Lun still gave him extraordinary knowledge, and at the same time asked about the candidate for the support letter. Polar Star thought for a few seconds and slowly replied:
"I want Noah first... well, Noah's letter of support."
Halfway through his words, he remembered the two previous times when his favorability points were deducted for calling him sir, and he changed his words reflexively.
Chen Lun seemed to know about this. He glanced at Polaris meaningfully and reminded him casually:
"Noah usually likes sweets. You can prepare some exquisite candies for him. I think he will be very happy then... This way, he will be more happy when you ask him for help."
Noah's favorable impression of Polaris has dropped to indifference, which will obviously affect the effect of the support letter. Chen Lun's reminder immediately made Polaris overjoyed.
Polar Star has been reminiscing about the exhilarating thrill of battle since he was assisted by Noah last time. Unfortunately, Dongyang and others are "too low-level" to cooperate tacitly with him... At the same time, he is also annoyed that he has continued to fight I offended Noah twice, and I didn’t know how to make up for my good feelings. Now I finally got the answer from the teacher.
"However, Noah is temporarily out of town due to some matters, and it will be some time before he returns...so this letter of support cannot be used at the moment."
Chen Lun handed the letter to Polar Star and said slowly.
"I understand, teacher."
Polaris nodded and carefully put the letter into the lining pocket of his jacket.
Chen Lun then took out a small hand crossbow. It was made entirely of wood and was covered with tooth-like lines. The handle and the top of the crossbow body were painted with blood-red paint.
"This is one of my old weapons, it has accompanied me through many difficult roads..."
Chen Lun gently stroked the crossbow, his eyes revealing memories.
"I once used it to hunt down a bishop of the Red Apple Church."
Polaris couldn't help but think of the first time he met his teacher. He was also playing with a trumpet musket, showing such an expression, and saying similar words, but most of what he said at that time was just a joke.
But this time, Polaris knew that the teacher did not lie to him.
He turned to look at Su Keying, and they both looked at each other and smiled.
The teacher once took this crossbow and fought with Bishop Newman in the courtyard of the Red Apple Church in Amber City, and finally beheaded him.
"I leave it to you now, Polaris."
Chen Lun withdrew his gaze and handed over the crossbow with a smile.
Polaris took it with slightly trembling hands.
"Thank you, teacher."
Dongyang and others next to him watched this scene intently. To be precise, they stared at the crossbow in Polaris's hand.
The next second, Goutoujin’s speech appeared in the chat channel:
"——Old Bei, please send the information out and see, so that we can also improve the world."
"——Yeah, damn! This is Jack's old weapon, it must be good, right?"
The Dragon King agreed.
Later, Dongyang, Chenxi, Honey Youzi, and even the new three high-level players Pumpkin also participated in the exchange. They all expressed curiosity about the opponent's crossbow and hoped that Polaris could share screenshots of its panel.
Polaris was not stingy and sent it out directly.
After a while, the chat room exploded.
"——[C-level monster - Gluttonous Tongue]...Blank, not only does this thing not require replenishing ammunition, but the crossbow arrows fired also deduct the maximum health value?!"
Kotoujin was shocked.
"——Hahaha... Brother Gouzi, you were already unable to defeat Brother Beizi, and now you are even more restrained! (eating melon expression)"
The Dragon King gloated.
"——Okay, this crossbow completely makes up for your shortcomings, Abei."
Dongyang saw at a glance that this strange object was very suitable for Polaris.
Everyone agreed.
Because Polaris learned Jack's exclusive skill [Animal Mimicry] and memorized the biological characteristics of crocodiles and antelopes, he has extremely strong melee capabilities, but he lacks the means of long-range attacks. Now [Gluttonous Tongue] Appeared and complemented this piece very well.
At the same time, Polaris is a little weak against the tenacious "Blood Ox" enemies, and the battle needs to be prolonged to slowly wear the opponent to death, which is very inconvenient.
And [Gluttonous Tongue] can restrain such an opponent very well!
"The teacher understands me very well..."
For some reason, Polaris suddenly had such an idea.
He looked up at the teacher, who was smiling with deep eyes.
Everyone chatted in the channel for a while, and then turned their attention to Jack. They were looking forward to the last reward from Polaris.
Skill transfer!
Originally, Polaris was just an ordinary Destiny player, but he was the first player to learn his exclusive skill [Animal Mimicry] from Jack. Since then, the concept of "The Destiny System is very strong" has gradually become embedded in his mind. in the players’ minds.
"After you were promoted to [Magician], you should have understood the ability of this sequence [Magic Trick] without any teacher..."
Chen Lun said softly.
Polaris nodded, indicating that it was indeed the case.
After he completed the promotion task just now, he immediately added the stored skill points to [Magic Tricks], upgraded it to the full level, and obtained four different magics.
"Teacher, I have mastered 'levitation', 'body separation', 'damage transfer' and 'cage escape'."
Polaris truthfully informed the teacher of his situation.
Chen Lun just nodded lightly on the surface, but he was muttering again in his heart.
'Although this is in line with the law of extraordinary asymmetry, Polaris is far from the situation when I was promoted...I had eight magic spells at the beginning, but Polaris only had four, missing 'Great Transformation', 'Item Restoration',' The three advanced magics of "Five Senses" and the most basic "Card Flying Knife" magic. ’
He pretended to ponder for a moment, and then said to Polaris:
"In this case, I'll give you a choice."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved.
Polaris found that a prompt box popped up on his panel. The teacher Jack was teaching him skills, but he needed to choose any of the three skills.
They are [Biles Swift Sword], [Magic Trick (Great Transformation into a Living Person)] and [Magic Trick (Card Throwing Knife)].
Polaris opened the panel with his mind and scanned the skill descriptions carefully. He was soon shocked by these three skills and his eyes widened.
To be honest, he was quite eager to have them all, but the fact was that he could only choose one, which made him very entangled and reluctant to give up.
"Teacher...what suggestions do you have?"
Polaris suddenly raised his head and spoke cautiously.
Chen Lun glanced at him with a half-smile. Although he knew he was being clever, he didn't point it out. Instead, he patiently explained:
"[Biles Swift Sword] can be said to be the advanced ability of [Knight Swordsmanship]. It allows you to suppress opponents at medium and short ranges. The sword wind you cut also has the power to damage the soul... The other two magics are the same. It is very valuable, among which the 'Great Transformation' can even greatly increase the upper limit of [Magician]'s ability."
After listening to the teacher's words, Polaris fell into deep thought.
After a while, he took a deep breath as if he had made up his mind.
"Teacher, I choose magic to 'transform a living person'!"
Polar Star knew that the teacher could teleport. Through careful observation and inference, he finally came to a conclusion... This magic will be the cornerstone of subsequent development!
If you want to be as powerful as your teacher, this magic is essential!
"You're smart, Polaris."
Chen Lun nodded with satisfaction and praised.
Isn't this a test?
Polaris suddenly understood and clenched his fists tighter with joy and excitement.
Soon, he saw the teacher rubbing his chin and said softly:
"But as a [magician], playing cards is a basic skill. If you don't know how to do this, it would be embarrassing for me... Well, let me teach you the 'card throwing knife' by the way."
"?!"
Polaris couldn't help but widen his eyes.
A strong surprise burst out from his heart, and he almost jumped up and shouted "Long live the teacher."
The people around him had questioning faces.
This...
Even if Polaris is Jack’s student, it’s not biased, right? !
"Choose one out of three" turned into "choose one get one free"? !
Hey hey! How are these people supposed to live? !
Kotoujin even twisted his face at the side, as if he couldn't poop after eating six lemons in a row.
When the Dragon King saw him, he couldn't help but sigh in the channel:
"——Jealousy will eventually change people beyond recognition."
Soon, his face also squeezed into a ball, and he added:
"——Brother Beizi! I hate you!!" (End of Chapter)
