Xiao Ran was the kind of participant whose level and authority had both risen rapidly after entering Prometheus. The gains he obtained from every mission exceeded those of other participants by at least tenfold. Such gains and growth speed had caused his authority level to soar, and they had also greatly affected the degree to which worlds were explored.
There were also Ultimate Missions. Only someone like Xiao Ran took on an Ultimate Mission almost every time in between regular missions. As a result, he had completed twice as many missions as participants from the same period, surpassing many of them within the shortest possible mission cycles. And the rewards from Ultimate Missions were naturally far greater than those from Normal Missions.
For Shirakawa Shuu and the others, however, the few reward points and mission items were no longer what they pursued in each mission. What they cared more about was the Mission World itself. Every time, they entered a mission with the goal of obtaining Faction Territory.
They broadened the plot and excavated the world. Aside from Main Missions and triggered Side Missions, they were not particularly enthusiastic about completing missions. They only completed the missions they already possessed and did not actively develop additional Side Missions, yet their degree of world exploration was always extremely high whenever they completed a mission.
And after Xiao Ran later brought back those things from his own world, the commotion they caused while carrying out missions grew even greater. Their gains and the speed at which their authority rose were not actually slow; they simply had not completed enough missions for their authority to increase
