Chapter 1442: Holy Land Tour
[Congratulations, User, for completing the legendary mission: Return from Hell]
[Mission completion details: Hesitating at the three paths of fate, you have chosen the most difficult one. Like you firmly believe, all problems are solvable in the test of time. You, who have returned from hell, will guide your compatriots the right way.]
[Reward: Two million experience points, 10,000 general points, one “legendary” prize draw.]
“... In the test of time, all problems are solvable.”
Lu Zhou stared at the light blue holographic panel as he digested these words with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
This was something he often said.
He didn’t expect The Observer to quote it.
However, because the expression was too vague, Lu Zhou didn’t even know whether this guy was teasing him as usual, or was it some kind of serious advice.
Lu Zhou shook his head. He decided to put this unimportant thing aside for the time being. He reached out and selected the lucky draw icon behind the general points.
A pale golden light appeared, and a huge roulette wheel with golden light particles appeared in front of him.
The legendary lucky draw felt unusual.
It’s not going to give me garbage, right?
Lu Zhou hesitated for a moment, but, in the end, he didn’t want to jinx himself, so he pressed the button for the draw.
The roulette wheel started to spin. He pressed the button in the middle of the wheel again.
After continuing to spin a few dozens of times due to inertia, the roulette wheel finally stopped slowly, revealing its prize to Lu Zhou.
[Congratulations to the user, sample received]
[Received: “Private-1” type intelligent human guard.]
The moment Lu Zhou saw the prize, he was stunned, and he quickly opened the inventory.
Directly in his inventory was an intelligent soldier with facial features. Its posture was similar to a human, and it has a body made of unknown metal alloys.
Its pupils exuded a dangerous sense of power, and he couldn’t help but wonder whether the pupils would suddenly shoot out lasers.
A text box with supporting explanatory text quickly appeared in front of Lu Zhou.
[“Private-1” type intelligent human guard, from the Calan Empire, production date unknown. A general-purpose ground army unit controlled by a central server. Often used for orbital landing operations and colony clearance of dangerous organisms. Built-in carbon chip. A limited degree of intelligence and autonomy in offline conditions.]
This thing...
Isn’t this the terminator?
Lu Zhou looked at the explanatory text floating in front of him, and the more Lu Zhou read, the more he felt his scalp tingling.
When he read the autonomy part, he wondered whether he had received a bodyguard or received trouble instead.
“... I’ll ask Xiao Ai for its opinion.”
At least Xiao Ai would never harm him.
He closed the inventory and opened his characteristic panel.
After thinking for a while, Lu Zhou allocated all his experience points to material science.
The blue light swept across the holographic screen, and the updated characteristic panel soon appeared in front of him.
[
A. Mathematics: Level 10
B. Physics: Level 10
C. Biochemistry: Level 8 (10,000/3 million)
D. Engineering: Level 8 (0/3 million)
E. Material Science: Level 8 (2.063 million/3 million)
F. Energy Science: Level 8 (0/3 million)
G. Information science: Level 8 (0/3 million)
General points: 58,335
]
Except for mathematics and physics, which were maxed out, all other disciplines were at level 8.
The best upgrade strategy now was to choose one of them, reach level 9, and receive the promotional mission.
After considering various factors, Lu Zhou chose material science.
This was his best subject besides mathematics and physics. It was also the field best suited for his talents in applied mathematics and condensed matter physics.
After looking at the updated characteristic panel, Lu Zhou looked at the mission panel.
The mission rewards this time did not include mission cards, nor did the lucky draw give him one.
Therefore, this mission would be selected from the three random missions.
Lu Zhou reached out and selected the mission panel. Soon, three random missions appeared in front of him through the holographic window.
[Mission One: Small goals in life]
[Description: Since the user feels that making money is easy, let’s start with a small goal.]
[Requirement: Earn 100 million in 30 days.]
Lu Zhou: “...”
The f*ck.
Is this a joke?
Although he never considered the possibility that he would be poor, he can’t imagine that he could earn 100 million in 30 days.
He hadn’t even figured out the business rules of this world...
Taking into account the inflation rate of the future era, there should be no opportunities of getting rich quickly. Lu Zhou didn’t even look at the rewards; he directly went to the next mission.
[Mission Two: Glory of the Past]
[Description: The glory of the past has gone with the wind, but a soul full of curiosity will not wither because of time.]
[Requirements: Get a doctorate degree within 30 days to obtain an S evaluation.
[Get a doctorate degree within 100 days and get an A evaluation.
[Get a doctorate degree within 300 days and get a C evaluation.]
When Lu Zhou saw this mission, he was flabbergasted.
Get a PhD in 30 days...
Fine, if degrees were awarded fast enough in this era, and there were enough people helping him, it wouldn’t be the problem.
However, the trouble was that 30 days might not even be enough for him to verify his identity.
He was still an unregistered citizen. The Pan-Asian Cooperation was still helping him with the investigation and evidence collection for his identity restoration. There was no way he could receive a PhD without his identity even being verified.
Although this mission seemed to be the simplest and the rewards for the mission were pretty good, after thinking about it, Lu Zhou finally gave up reluctantly.
It was not his preference to complete a mission based on uncertain elements that were out of his control.
“Last one...”
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and looked at the last mission.
[Mission Three: Visiting the Holy Land]
[Mission description: Time is passing by, it’s the New Year.]
[Requirements: At a place where you have worked or lived, there are three keys that belong only to you. Use holographic glasses to discover them. It is a treasure that only you can see.]
[Rewards: Each key rewards one million experience points. Collecting three keys can open special rewards. (Note: Able to complete mission after obtaining one key.)]
“One key gives one million experience... Three gives three million experience, and there are special rewards?”
Is this really an ordinary mission?
The rewards are better than legendary missions.
Intuition told Lu Zhou that the profit and risk were always proportional. There was something else behind this mission, however, he didn’t know what it was.
“... Who cares, this mission looks more reliable than the first two.”
Lu Zhou no longer hesitated. He reached out his hand and selected the icon for mission three.
It didn’t make any sense to worry about the unknown. Whether there was a trap in the mission or not, he would only know by doing it himself.
Besides, he wanted to explore.
What had become of the place where he once worked and lived...
