Their Commission Rewards Are Not Right Chapter 2

Damn! I almost forgot, this really isn't a system, it's my talent.

It's all because this thing looks so much like a system that Chen Luo got completely sidetracked.

Chen Luo felt a bit disappointed for a moment.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, exactly as they say.

Moreover, the most crucial point was that this Traveler, which was touted as an EX-level talent, didn't show any impressive qualities from any angle Chen Luo looked at it.

Well, it was just plain and unremarkable in every aspect, Chen Luo didn't even know how to use this thing.

"Useless talent, making me anticipate for so long for nothing, and the description was so high-class..."

Chen Luo instantly became unhappy.

The key was that he couldn't feel happy anymore.

[Ding! You have 1000 raw stones to claim, would you like to claim them?]

"???" Hearing this sound, Chen Luo's body inexplicably trembled.

For some reason, the moment Chen Luo heard "raw stones," his spirits lifted.

"Why are there 1000 raw stones?" Chen Luo couldn't figure it out.

This is a talent, how could there be a beginner's gift package?

But then, a wave of inexplicable, inexpressible memories suddenly surged into Chen Luo's mind.

[Instruction Manual]

After a while, Chen Luo dejectedly shook his slightly swollen head.

"Why didn't you give me the instruction manual sooner?"

After Chen Luo recovered for a bit, he finally processed that memory.

Then Chen Luo understood that the 1000 raw stones were the reward for the nearly 1000 acts of helping others that he had done.

Originally, there could have been more, but because the talent hadn't fully awakened at the time, the maximum limit for accumulating raw stones from the talent was only 1000.

However, it seemed that the excess raw stones that couldn't be obtained could be accumulated as Fortune, to be used on the first gacha pull. According to the instruction manual, the accumulated Fortune could guarantee a guaranteed ultra-rare special five-star in the first ten-pull, the kind that's one in ten thousand among five-stars, and there wouldn't be such benefits in the future. This sounded quite profitable...

The source of raw stones was by completing commissions, helping others, to obtain varying amounts of raw stones, and also from monster drops.

And since this talent's name was Traveler, when Chen Luo encountered scenery that stirred his heart, he would also receive some raw stone rewards, not many, but enough.

There were also various bizarre achievements that were another source of raw stone rewards.

And these raw stones could be used for gacha pulls and... purchasing skills?

Gacha pulls were easy to understand, once Chen Luo saved up 1600 raw stones, he could unlock the gacha system and pull.

The prize pool had everything, from a Star Destroyer Mothership to Otaku Happy Water, and he could even pull character cards, allowing him to obtain a Paper Waifu, but what he would actually draw in the end would depend on his luck.

As for the function of purchasing skills...

Simply put, it meant he could buy other people's talents or special skills, but it would cost raw stones.

In the Traveler talent, raw stones were omnipotent.

And the prerequisite for purchasing skills was that the other person had to be your friend.

That's right, if the other person wasn't your friend, then you could only kill them to see if any skill scrolls dropped.

Skill scrolls obtained in that situation were random, and there was a considerable chance they wouldn't be skills you possessed.

Chen Luo really felt that the more he looked at this Traveler talent, the more it resembled a game.

And killing people... was it really okay to be so violent?

However, Chen Luo glanced at his completely empty friend slots and instantly fell silent.

If, Chen Luo meant if.

If he could find a way to kill a Water Bear, would he possibly gain the Water Bear's near-immortal ability?

Generally speaking, it was probably possible, but the prerequisite was that the Water Bear would actually be recognized as an "enemy" by the Traveler talent.

"Jingle jingle!" The bell for the end of class... no, the holiday bell rang.

The last class on Friday afternoon was always the most agonizing, but Chen Luo had been immersed in various bizarre things throughout the entire class, so he felt time passed very quickly.

"Chen Luo, it's my turn to clean today, but I have an urgent matter, can you help me out?" As soon as the homeroom teacher on stage left, a boy rushed to Chen Luo's deskmate's desk.

[Ding! You have a new commission.]

[Clean the Classroom]: Due to rushing to see his girlfriend, the classmate who absolutely doesn't want to clean wants you to help him.

Reward: 5 raw stones

Difficulty: 0 stars

"Sure..." Chen Luo said helplessly.

Even so... earning raw stones isn't shameful.

[Ding! You have a new commission.]

[Take In the Herrscher of Knowledge] (Limited-Time Commission): The Herrscher of Knowledge, recently scammed by her own mother via phone, was swept into a temporal vortex and severely injured. Go, give her a home!

Reward: 600 raw stones + any weapon mastery

Difficulty: 0 stars

Countdown: 20 minutes.

(Limited-time mission; will automatically disappear if the mission location isn't reached before the time limit to accept.)

(Note: This mission is extremely rare, please choose carefully.)

"Can it be? Thanks then." The male classmate said without any gratitude.

"Sigh..." Chen Luo's deskmate sighed.

Wouldn't it take 20 minutes for one person to clean? I'll have to help him myself.

What a disaster, why did I end up with such a deskmate?

"You can shove it, do your own chores!"

5 raw stones? Is he trying to bribe a beggar?

A tool? I'm not doing this anymore!!!

Hope you take a long time cleaning, and then get stabbed in the kidney by a blue lancer!!!

After giving the other person the middle finger, Chen Luo flipped over his desk and ran out of the classroom at lightning speed.

Leaving only the male classmate and Chen Luo's deskmate, bewildered in the wind.

What was different was that while Chen Luo's deskmate was bewildered, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Chapter 3: Another Way to Complete Commission Missions!

Although Chen Luo knew that his behavior just now was far from his usual good-natured principles, the problem was that Chen Luo wasn't a good person to begin with.

It was all just missions from the [Traveler] talent.

If it were normal altruism, Chen Luo wouldn't mind doing it.

But you're a high school student with hands and feet, and you want someone else to clean for you? Don't you have hands and feet yourself?

Moreover, Chen Luo also discovered that the commission system in his talent, besides being able to accept missions, could also expose some information.

For example, how did this talent know that the male classmate just now was trying to find a girlfriend by pushing the work onto Chen Luo?

Although Chen Luo couldn't understand it very well, even more incredible things had appeared before him long ago, so Chen Luo could accept this matter.

And the most important thing now was to hurry up and complete that limited-time mission.

Please, that limited-time mission was really valuable!

600 raw stones, that was equivalent to more than half of all the raw stones he had earned through his hard work for more than two years.

And that special weapon mastery reward... was truly tempting.

Chen Luo's home wasn't far from school, and he had ridden his bicycle to school today, so it would take at most 5 minutes to get home from school.

If nothing unexpected happened...

But if nothing unexpected happened, something unexpected was bound to happen.

As soon as Chen Luo ran to the bicycle parking area, he saw someone at the location of his bicycle violently tampering with his rear tire.

"Damn Blondie, you're messing with my bike again!" Chen Luo's anger flared up as he looked at the bastard with dyed blond hair.

"Holy crap, why are you out so early today?" The Blondie, holding a screwdriver, was instantly shocked to see Chen Luo come out so quickly.

Logically speaking, Chen Luo was responsible for all the cleaning in his class every day; it had almost become the norm.

"Screw you!" In normal circumstances, Chen Luo wouldn't have paid much attention to the other person, at most he would have called a teacher or the security guard.

But Chen Luo was in a hurry today.

This was because Chen Luo discovered that the location of the Herrscher of Knowledge was right at his doorstep, no wonder she sent him this commission.

And Chen Luo was no stranger to that Blondie; he was the school bully who was almost traumatized by [Mop Dipped in Shit, Lu Bu Reborn].

That's how their feud began.

"Since you've seen me, I won't pretend anymore. I was the one who sabotaged your previous bicycle," the Blondie said, no longer hiding it now that Chen Luo had discovered the secret.

No more pretense, he was laying it all out.

Chen Luo walked forward angrily.

"What? You dare to hit me?" The Blondie, standing on his tiptoes to look at Chen Luo, who was slightly shorter than him, couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Luo walked to the back seat of his bicycle, placed his backpack on it, and then rummaged through his backpack.

"Why do you only have this much courage? You don't have any courage to fight when you're not in the bathroom?" the Blondie sneered.

Then, the Blondie's smug smile slowly froze. He actually saw Chen Luo slowly pulling out a... brick from his backpack?!!

"Smack!"

Chen Luo hit the other person on the head with a brick while he was stunned.

As everyone knows, Chen Luo enjoys helping others, so it's perfectly normal for Chen Luo to bring along some "equipment" to do so, right?

And a brick, being a sharp weapon that's easy to pick up and easy to discard, naturally became Chen Luo's first choice.

Chen Luo stood in place, coldly watching Blondie who had been knocked down by a brick.

I'm a good student who once smashed a robber with a brick during a bank robbery, and you dare to fight me?

Chen Luo really wanted to hit the other person a couple more times on the head, but seeing the mission countdown, he gave up directly.

Chen Luo tossed his backpack into his bicycle basket, grabbed a brick, and ran towards the school gate.

Forget the backpack! The raw stones are more important!

As for why he was holding a brick? That was naturally to destroy the evidence.

And as for Blondie?

Heh, if there weren't any surveillance cameras in the bicycle parking area, Blondie would have been caught long ago, so there's no need to worry about surveillance issues.

What if Blondie identifies Chen Luo as the attacker later?

Please, one is a recognized good student and kind person who has received a banner from the police station, and the other is Blondie. Who do you think the police will believe?

"Fortunately, school is out, and there are usually many taxis at the entrance, otherwise the mission would have almost failed." Getting out of the taxi and seeing the mission with 12 minutes remaining, Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason for wasting 8 minutes was mainly due to the severe traffic jam.

Moreover, to prevent the taxi driver from picking up more passengers and wasting his already limited time, Chen Luo directly paid triple the price.

Chen Luo got out of the car when he was still a short distance from his home to ensure this mission wouldn't be interrupted.
