Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Heaven Fighter Points, Leaping Straight to Level Four Heaven Fighter
"Although it can't restore you immediately, the recovery efficiency is many times better than meditation, understand?"
Lin Yuan kept giving instructions.
He remembered what this test was like in the original story: collecting metal in Simulation world, and the more metal collected, the more Shrek Badge one could exchange for.
Xiao Qi, standing next to him, had a twitching mouth.
Holy crap, how much does this cost?
Although he is a teacher, he receives a fixed salary, and his only other income depends on performance and participation in some high-stakes gambling.
After watching Xiao Qi lead the Little Dragon God into the Aerospace Center, Lin Yuan, led by Tang Zhenhua, boarded the shuttle bus.
"Lin Yuan, I've heard so much about you! I received a call from Honghong; she wants me to take you to the mission center."
Beside Lin Yuan, Tang Zhenhua grinned, forcing out One Person smile, the strong smell of alcohol wafting over.
Lin Yuan gave an awkward but polite smile and nodded slightly, "Yes, Teacher Tang."
"It's a pity, you're going on a mission soon. I was hoping to give you a real experience of space warfare. Yin Tianfan told me that although you don't like starfighters, your talent is higher than most pilots who do. Looks like I won't be so lucky."
"Now that you mention it, it really is a pity, Teacher Tang." Lin Yuan nodded earnestly.
It's a pity that the big Demon Pill who taught Yin Tianfan in the original work wasn't allowed to experience the feeling of being cared for by the starry sky.
Soon, the shuttle bus took the two to the mission center.
Interestingly, the mission center is right next to the exchange center.
From a distance, the exchange center looks like a pen holder, cylindrical in shape with a concave top. It's at least thirty stories high, much taller than the surrounding buildings and larger than the main teaching building.
Here, Lin Yuan saw quite a few Shrek Academy students.
"This design concept comes from the idiom 'sitting in a well and looking at the sky,' which constantly reminds us that we should never be blindly complacent or have a narrow view of the sky."
Tang Zhenhua, who was standing beside Lin Yuan, explained while constantly observing the prominent figures who had been making waves recently.
Lin Yuan ignored Tang Zhenhua's scrutiny.
He simply nodded and didn't say anything more.
"Alright, that's not our destination. Follow me."
Tang Zhenhua led the way, with Lin Yuan following behind. They passed through the exchange center and arrived at the mission center at the back.
Compared to the sophisticated exchange center, the task center is much simpler.
It occupies less than half the area of the exchange center.
Lin Yuan and Tang Zhenhua entered the lobby on the first floor, took one of the elevators, and descended about twenty meters.
They arrived at a spacious hall, which was very large, with large screens at the front.
Each screen has a unique label, and the content on the screen is scrolling.
Tang Zhenhua slowly began to speak:
"This is the mission hall. These missions are not exclusive to the Shrek Academy. The same mission center can be found in the Spirit Pagoda, Tang Sect, War God Temple, Federation, and other places. You can pick up missions from there. The mission system is interconnected. Some missions can be picked up by multiple people, while others are unique. Once a mission is completed or fails, others cannot pick it up. Completing missions will earn you points, which can be exchanged for badges within the Academy."
"Of course, the points earned from the Heaven Fighter missions aren't just for exchanging badges; they can also be used to upgrade military ranks. For example, to become a Level 3 Battle Heaven Fighter Heaven Fighter, you need 10,000 points. Heaven Fighter ranks are based on a decimal system, and a Level 3 Heaven Fighter is equivalent to a Major, a Level 4 Heaven Fighter is equivalent to a Colonel, and a Level 5 Heaven Fighter is on par with a Major General. Note that it's on par, not a true Major General. To become a true Major General, you need to be a Level 6 Heaven Fighter. This is the chasm between a general and a soldier, extremely difficult to cross."
Lin Yuan seemed to be deep in thought. According to his uncle, once his parents returned from the Longma Galaxy, they could be promoted to lieutenant general. And a lieutenant general would be a level seven Heaven Fighter, right?
Tang Zhenhua led Lin Yuan to the large screen and began the registration process. The registration process was not complicated, as someone had already made arrangements.
"Alright, here are the tasks. Take your time looking through them. Don't worry if you don't find one you like. You can always come back another time."
Tang Zhenhua, watching Lin Yuan looking at the big screen, joked:
"After all, there's a rumor among students that doing tasks isn't the most painful part; choosing tasks is."
[Level 1 Difficulty Mission: Number: Yi Yi, Patrol Tiandou Planet, Reward: 3 points. If you encounter enemies, you will receive additional rewards for their strength and cultivation. Time Limit: Two months of patrolling required (solo)]
[Level 2 Difficulty Mission: Number: 1987, Help the army clear out the remaining (excluding intelligent natives) debris on Resource Planet 529. Accumulate over 50 cleared items to earn 9 points. Time limit (one month). For each additional 50 cleared items, an extra 2 points will be awarded (solo/team, team of 2)]
[Level 3 Difficulty Mission: ID: 1672. Go to Resource Planet 822 to help the military collect scarce local energy resources. You need to collect at least 20 designated energy items weighing over 100 grams each. Final points are awarded based on the amount of energy collected. Upon mission completion, you will receive an additional 30 points (solo/team, 5-person team)]
[Level 4 Difficulty Mission: Number: 1239, Follow the Federation Fleet to explore the Mammoth Galaxy, become a pioneer exploration team member, accumulate more than 100 hours of exploration time, gain military approval, mission complete (unlimited number of participants), 100 points]
These are all tasks that aren't very challenging.
Lin Yuan looked directly at level five or six missions.
Lin Yuan was found very quickly.
[Level 5 Difficulty Mission, ID: 1002, Team Mission: Annihilate a coalition of interstellar pirates roaming near the Sin Planet. The coalition is led by Titled Douluo- level expert and possesses twelve warships. Team Mission: 60 participants. Reward: 1400 points (Douluo Planet time: 5 PM, September 17th, Douluo Planet Launch Center)]
'The 17th... isn't that just two days from now?' Lin Yuan muttered to himself.
"This one will do," Lin Yuan said, pointing to the task on the list.
"Titled Douluo? You..."
Tang Zhenhua was about to say, "Don't joke around, that's at the Titled Douluo level."
But remembering that Lin Yuan had previously killed two Titled Douluo with a single shot, he immediately changed his tune:
"Are you serious? This is Star Wars. Star Wars and terrestrial warfare are not the same thing," Tang Zhenhua couldn't help but remind him.
"I also had experience with Star Wars before."
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Who said Star Wars is no good?"
Strictly speaking!
He felt much more at ease fighting in space than on the ground.
Seeing that Lin Yuan wasn't joking, Tang Zhenhua shook his head helplessly. "Alright, safety comes first."
Immediately, Tang Zhenhua helped Lin Yuan register Heaven Fighter on the monitor next to him and selected the level 5 difficulty mission. When [Mission accepted], the page jumped to Lin Yuan's personal Heaven Fighter profile. Next to the character image, [Mission accepted (1): Level 5 difficulty mission: Number: 1002...]
After confirming that there were no problems with the system, Tang Zhenhua subconsciously glanced at Lin Yuan's Heaven Fighter points.
When he saw Lin Yuan's Heaven Fighter Points, he cursed loudly.
"Holy crap, 350,000 Heaven Fighter points?!"
Tang Zhenhua stared wide-eyed at the 700,000 Heaven Fighter lying in Lin Yuan's account, rubbing his eyes in disbelief.
[Heaven Fighter: Unranked Heaven Fighter: 350,000/0]
That's really true!
Three hundred and fifty thousand points!
This is enough for Lin Yuan to leap to the fourth level of Heaven Fighter!
That's equivalent to what? It's equivalent to a colonel!
"Oh, these points..."
Lin Yuan looked at the points and suddenly understood.
"I remember now, it seems to be the mission '[Sin Planet - Eternal Night Monarch Invades the Federation].' My uncle had the military calculate it as a Level 7 Heaven Fighter mission for me. But a Level 7 Heaven Fighter mission only costs 350,000 points? Hmm, thinking about it, it makes sense. If you convert it that way, a Level 7 Heaven Fighter Heaven Fighter needs 100 million points. Considering that a Level 4 Heaven Fighter mission only costs 200 points, this 350,000 seems reasonable..."
"You... never mind, I won't ask anymore, this must be quite troublesome." Tang Zhenhua immediately suppressed his curiosity, always remembering that curiosity killed the cat, and instead said to Lin Yuan:
"Generally speaking, Heaven Fighter Points have two uses. One is to exchange Heaven Fighter Points for resources from corresponding organizations. For Shrek Academy, it's to exchange for Shrek Badge. One point is equal to one White-level Badge. The second is to upgrade your military rank. Which one do you choose? After you choose, I will report it to Heaven Fighter Headquarters."
Do I need to be promoted in the military?
If I really want to join the army, my uncle will be short of bodyguards in no time.
"Make sure I reach the fourth level of the Heaven Fighter, then exchange the rest for badges."
After thinking it over, Lin Yuan decided to keep some of the money to buy an identity, that is, to change his military rank, and exchange the rest for badges.
'Okay, I'll go to the exchange center later to organize the equipment. The badges probably won't arrive in time, but that's alright. I can ask Teacher Tang to write me a check, and I can transfer the money to the exchange center directly once the badges arrive.'
Tang Zhenhua:...
Damn, over 200,000 points, over 200,000 White-level Badge!
At the normal exchange rate of 15 to 1 for Yellow Badge and 15 to 1 for purple badges, you can get over 1,100 purple badges.
Tang Zhenhua couldn't help but gasp.
Good heavens, they're so rich!
