Chapter 361: Chapter 200: Siege Battle Reward Calculation, Lady Beixila’s Surprise?
As for the Guards, they were part of a different system from the Adventurers, so they didn’t need to come here. Their rewards would be issued directly by the military.
The administrative area was still packed with people. Although it seemed orderly under the guidance of the attendants and Maids, a long line had still formed, and the hall was buzzing with voices.
The bored Adventurers started bragging to pass the time, boasting about how bravely they had fought in the recent battle and the powerful enemies they had faced. The conversation then drifted to difficult quests they had completed in the past.
Attendants were on hand to provide free tea for those whose throats grew dry from all the talking.
However, to prevent anyone from getting drunk and causing trouble, no alcohol was served.
As Lin Mo passed by, some Adventurers recognized him and rushed forward to greet him.
After the last few major incidents, Lin Mo’s fame in Silver Stream City had grown considerably. It was now on par with Landon’s—in fact, it could be said he had completely surpassed all of Silver Stream City’s "Ten Heroes," including Landon himself.
Although he didn’t recognize any of them, Lin Mo still smiled and nodded in response. He wasn’t very good at handling these kinds of situations, so he quickly followed the Maid out of the area.
Given his contributions and power, he was entitled to a private room with dedicated staff to process his rewards.
Coincidentally, when Lin Mo arrived at this "VIP" room, Landon was inside, having his rewards calculated.
It was no surprise; in an incident involving such a massive number of enemies, the contribution of a Level 4 Mage like Landon was bound to be significant.
After his rewards were settled, Landon was overjoyed. He said to his companions, "With the Skill I just got, I should be able to hit Level 5 once I learn it!"
"Awesome, Captain!"
"Amazing."
"The captain’s a badass..."
In the midst of their celebration, they looked up and saw Lin Mo walk in. The smug expression on Landon’s face instantly froze.
’It would have been fine if I hadn’t seen him. But now that I have, I can’t help but make a comparison, and, well...’
"You’re here?"
Landon had a pretty good attitude about it, though. It was hard not to when you were acquainted with someone like Lin Mo.
After all, whether it was him or Torren, they were all in a completely different league from Lin Mo, destined to be left further and further in the dust. Once you got used to it, you learned to accept it.
It was just as the Minstrel’s saying goes: "When someone is a little stronger than you, you might feel envy, jealousy, or even hatred. But when someone surpasses you by a vast margin, you no longer feel those emotions—only a sense of peace."
"Mm."
Lin Mo nodded and gave him a fist bump.
"I’ll wait for you then. We can go pick our rewards together."
For those with major contributions like Landon and Lin Mo, the rewards naturally wouldn’t be limited to Gold Coins; Skill Scrolls and equipment were also essential.
Very few people were qualified to be in this area, so Lin Mo didn’t have to wait in line. As soon as he entered, it was his turn to have his rewards tallied.
First up were Ali’s rewards.
"Confirming Adventurer identity. Name: Ali. Affiliation: Silver Radiance Squad. Based on statistical data, approximate contributions are as follows: 230 Ordinary Goblins, over 20 juvenile Mutated Goblins, 10 adult Mutated Goblins, 3 Quasi-Bronze Level Goblins, and 1 Bronze Level Goblin killed!"
While it was a far cry from Lin Mo’s record, her results were still quite impressive.
An average Level 2 or even Level 3 Warrior wouldn’t come close to achieving such numbers.
Ali had even managed to take down a Level 3 Bronze Goblin, defeating an opponent above her own level.
One could only say that Lin Mo had truly "raised" her well.
"Calculating based on the above combat data, the final reward is as follows: credit for completing three E Level Tasks, a monetary prize of 214 gold and 20 silver coins, and a choice between three Excellent Level pieces of equipment or one Excellent Level Warrior Profession Skill Scroll."
Lin Mo thought for a moment. ’The value of both options should be about the same.’
’Ali isn’t lacking for Excellent Level equipment,’ he mused. ’In that case, it’s better to pick the Skill Scroll. I can learn from it too. Besides, with Excellent Level scrolls, you get to keep the scroll itself, not just the right to use it. Later, once Ali has completely mastered the skill, we can even sell it...’
’Speaking of Scrolls, I think I still have some consigned to the auction house. I wonder if they’ve sold after all this time.’
’I’ll go check on them later.’
After collecting Ali’s monetary reward, all that was left was to choose the Skill Scroll. He decided he would just pick one for her when he went to select his own rewards later.
Lin Mo temporarily placed the Gold Coins into his Ring of Space.
Next, it was time to calculate his own rewards.
"Confirming Adventurer identity. Name: Lin Mo. Affiliation: Silver Radiance Squad. Based on statistical data, your approximate contributions are..."
The staff member stopped mid-sentence, stunned. Thinking there must be a problem with the Magic Energy System, she checked the numbers again and again before continuing, "...approximate contributions are: over 3,000 Ordinary Goblins, over 200 juvenile Mutated Goblins, over 80 adult Mutated Goblins, and over 50 Quasi-Bronze Goblins killed!"
She paused, her eyes fixed on the following lines of the report. She swallowed hard.
"Over 50 Level 3 Bronze Level Goblins, 8 Level 4 Bronze Goblins, 4 Level 4 Giant Goblins, 1 Level 5 Bronze Goblin, 1 Level 5 Giant Goblin... and one Level 7 Lord Tier Silver Goblin!!!"
By the time she finished reading, the staff member was too shocked to speak.
