"Ding-dong."
The Spirit Intelligence interface chimed with another crisp reminder.
"You have a beginner-level Rising Tide test survey!"
"Cost: 100 points; reward for passing: 200–500 points."
"Accept or decline."
A beginner-level Rising Tide test survey?
This Spirit Intelligence had to be a city person. It really knew how to play.
Although Jiang Yue didn't quite understand what a test survey was, as a modern young man who'd grown up immersed in the internet, he'd filled out more than his fair share of online surveys.
By convention, these were basically free points. Like a beginner's gift pack, the rewards were pretty lousy, but at least they were easy to claim.
He figured this beginner-level test survey was probably the same kind of freebie.
It cost 100 points?
He checked his personal points. With the 30-point reward he'd received earlier, his total was back up to 150.
An investment of 100, with a starting reward of 200 and a maximum of 500.
In the real world, he'd seen people get harvested like crops time and again. Where else could you find an investment that doubled—or even multiplied—your money?
He chose to accept without hesitation.
The Spirit Intelligence immediately displayed a pleasant-looking azure interface.
"Welcome to the beginner-level Rising Tide test survey!"
Then came a long string of instructions, basically telling participants to take it seriously, put their hearts into it, and not just fill in random answers.
Jiang Yue always skipped this kind of pointless notice and clicked Start.
