Chapter 255 Congratulations on Getting Rich (Mission)
Chapter 255 Congratulations on Getting Rich (Mission)
In an instant, a server-wide announcement flashed with golden light, and a loud system notification rang in the ears of every player: "Dear players, player Shiying from N-dimensional space has successfully completed a system breakthrough!"
To celebrate, Shiying players issued a "Wishing you prosperity" quest to the entire server.
This task is for single players only; all players are cordially invited to participate and share in this good fortune!
The thug's eyes widened, his face flushed with excitement, and he roared at the top of his lungs, "Holy crap! These Shadow Players are so generous! They're practically giving us freebies! I have to hurry and grab the quest!"
Before he finished speaking, his fingers flew across the keyboard as he quickly left the team channel, disappearing from everyone's sight in a flash.
Yuan Bao, the captain, and the other team members exchanged smiles, their eyes also sparkling with eager anticipation.
Captain Yi Xiao Naihe decisively clicked to disband the team, saying, "Everyone, hurry up and show your skills!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, eagerly opening the task interface and vying for this rare opportunity to make money.
Yuan Bao stared intently at the "Wishing you prosperity" task interface, and called out to Xiao 9 in confusion: "Xiao 9! I'm not short of money right now, but I'm a little short of points. Can this task be exchanged for points?"
Little 9 twirled in the air, her tone slightly reproachful, "My lady, don't say that. If someone hears you, you'll get beaten up. Who would complain about having too much money!"
Yuan Bao sighed, his face full of helplessness: "I just want to achieve a system breakthrough as soon as possible!"
"Please be patient, my lady, I will check it right away."
A flash of light appeared around Xiao 9 as it quickly retrieved system information.
A moment later, it excitedly exclaimed, "Master, this quest not only rewards you with game coins, but also comes with a 500-point bonus!"
Yuan Bao's eyes lit up, and he nodded in satisfaction: "500 points is pretty good too!" With that, Yuan Bao was full of fighting spirit, quickly clicked to accept the task and headed off immediately.
In the blink of an eye, Yuan Bao felt the light and shadows change before his eyes, and he found himself in the "Wishing You Prosperity" quest instance.
What comes into view is a vast expanse of lush green lawn, where a gentle breeze causes the grass to ripple like waves.
A group of ginseng spirit dolls were jumping and playing on the lawn. Each doll had a prominent Chinese character on its head. These characters, when combined, could form a Chinese idiom with a beautiful meaning.
The game requires players to use their quick reflexes and fast hand speed to click on the corresponding dolls in the order of the idioms as the ginseng spirit dolls keep jumping.
The faster you complete the task, the more game coins you can collect.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Bao's lips curled up, revealing a confident smile.
These ginseng essence dolls were all too familiar to her.
She has a lot of ginseng spirit dolls in her space, and she knows their habits and jumping patterns like the back of her hand, so dealing with this task is a piece of cake.
Soon, the mission officially began.
The first set of idioms, "Gong Xi Fa Cai" (Wishing you prosperity), appeared. Yuan Bao's eyes flashed like lightning, and with a light tap of his finger, he selected four dolls in order in less than two seconds.
Immediately afterwards, the second group "Wealth and Prosperity" and the third group "Good Fortune" appeared. Yuan Bao, relying on his prediction of the ginseng spirit doll's jumping route, completed the operation smoothly, finishing each time within two seconds.
The system notification sounded at the opportune moment: "Congratulations, player, on completing the task."
Yuan Bao didn't pay attention to how many gold coins he had grabbed; he was just happy to have earned 500 points.
Humming a little tune, I exited the game instance.
At this moment, Yuan Bao was at home in the game world. He had just logged out of the instance when the phone in the living room suddenly rang.
A moment later, the housekeeper, Miss Bai, spoke in a clear voice: "Miss Yuan, you have a phone call. It's from Teacher Fang at the school."
Yuan Bao responded, put down the equipment in her hand, quickly went downstairs, and elegantly answered the phone: "Hello, Teacher Fang! This is Yuan Bao."
On the other end of the phone, Teacher Fang's voice was full of concern: "Yuan Bao, you have already secured a place in Beijing University through the guaranteed admission program."
I called to ask if you're still planning to take the college entrance exam this year.
Yuan Bao was slightly taken aback, as he had indeed never considered this issue before.
In her view, although the college entrance examination is described as a fierce competition with thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge, it is also an excellent opportunity to test one's knowledge and abilities.
With my current knowledge and abilities, I can easily handle the college entrance examination.
After a moment's thought, Yuan Bao politely replied, "Teacher Fang, I hadn't considered not taking the college entrance exam before. You have a lot of experience, could you give me some advice?"
On the other end of the phone, upon hearing Yuan Bao's reply, Teacher Fang's usually calm voice instantly rose, filled with undisguised joy: "That's wonderful, Yuan Bao! It seems your thoughts coincide with the teachers'."
It turns out that at a recent school administrative meeting, the principal specifically mentioned Yuan Bao and asked Teacher Fang with concern: After Yuan Bao was confirmed to be admitted to a university in Beijing, would he still participate in the college entrance examination?
All the school leaders had no doubt about Yuan Bao's abilities and unanimously believed that if Yuan Bao participated in the college entrance examination, he would very likely become the top scorer in the province, which would undoubtedly greatly enhance the school's reputation and bring many benefits.
That's why Teacher Fang made a special call to inquire.
Hearing Yuan Bao clearly state that he had no intention of giving up on the college entrance examination, Teacher Fang felt relieved and said encouragingly, "Yuan Bao, then just prepare for the college entrance examination as usual! I believe that with your strength, you will definitely bring another top scorer trophy back to the school!"
Hearing her teacher's encouragement, Yuan Bao replied on the other end of the phone, "Okay, I will try my best."
Teacher Fang smiled with satisfaction: "Good! If you have any questions about your studies, you can come to me anytime. In the coming period, adjust your mindset and balance work and rest."
Just as I hung up Teacher Fang's call, the system notification rang out crisply: "Ding! Main quest issued - Please participate in the college entrance examination."
Rewards for this task will be distributed in tiers based on college entrance examination rankings.
A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Bao's eyes. He quickly returned to his room, picked up the round and chubby Little 9, and gently rubbed its soft fur with both hands. He said with a smile, "Little 9, the main quest has been quiet for a long time. This time it's actually related to the college entrance examination. It's practically giving me free points!"
Little 9 squinted contentedly, snuggled comfortably in Yuan Bao's arms, and said leisurely, "My lord, the college entrance examination is a major event in your lives, so it's perfectly normal for the system to issue related tasks. Isn't it a good thing to earn points through this opportunity? Although there are still nearly half a year until the college entrance examination, you can never have too many points, so let's earn as many as we can."
Yuan Bao nodded, gently tapping Xiao 9's head with his finger: "You're right. In the next six months, I need to study hard for the college entrance exam and strive for a good ranking, while continuing to clear levels in the game and accumulate more points! After all, after the system reaches level five, it will require a lot of points to break through again."
After saying that, Yuan Bao looked out the window with a determined gaze, his mind already beginning to formulate new strategies for exam preparation and game dungeon adventures.
