My Apocalypse Territory-Chapter 182 - 180 We Made a Profit

[Collect Zhiwen Grass (One-star Task)]

Collect at least ten Zhiwen Grasses with a completeness over 90%. Reward: 10 points.

[Find Red Flame Essence Iron (One-star Task)]

Provide definite clues or hand over a certain amount of Red Flame Essence Iron. Reward: 10-200 points.

He Yuanhang shook his head.

Such tasks lacked clear starting points. From his first day here, they hung high on the task board, and only when someone stumbled upon a clue would they undertake the task and claim the reward.

Unless there was a specific lead, he wouldn't take on these tasks; with bad luck, they could hang forever in the incomplete task list.

Besides points, task completion rates and reputation also measured an adventure group's caliber.

He continued browsing.

[Send Invitation Letters (One-star Task)]

Travel to the vicinity of West Lake and deliver invitation letters to the three small sanctuaries there, introducing them to Green Shadow's development and inviting them to open shops in Green Shadow's commercial district.

Depending on the response from the sanctuaries, the completion level of the task will be determined.

Reward: 10-30 points.

"No way, this task takes too much time. Who knows whether it'll be three days or five before we can say it's complete."

[Star Upgrading (Two-star Task)]

Starting from the third tier, adventurers must not only meet the point criteria but also complete star upgrading tasks to level up. The tasks are randomly generated upon acceptance and will not exceed the adventurer's current tier.

Requirements: Secondary-tier adventurer with points reaching the third-tier standard, task completion rate above 80%.

"Forget it, forget it, I haven't even reached second-tier yet!"

He looked further.

[Live Capture (One-star Team Task)]

Capture a live Thunder Lizard. There have been rumors of this Mutant Beast wandering in Wu County, with strength estimated between the second and third Awakening tiers.

Reward: 30 points.

"This is it!"

He Yuanhang's eyes lit up.

The intelligence on this task was detailed, and the strength of the Thunder Lizard was within their adventure group's ability range. It was just right.

After accepting the task, he instructed Pot Lid Head to notify the other members, but he didn't leave. Instead, he browsed other tasks.

It wouldn't be bad to take on a suitable task in advance, he thought. Even after reaching second-tier and exchanging points for various equipment, substantial points would still be needed.

He Yuanhang thought that an adventure group could have up to three pending tasks. As long as they didn't exceed the time limit, he might as well snatch them up first and let others weep.

Task after task scrolled before his eyes.

But in the end, he didn't take on any additional tasks.

Either the completion deadline was too long or the challenge level was too high. Some even required venturing into dangerous fourth-tier zones. In He Yuanhang's opinion, few adventurers dared to take on such tasks.

He wasn't disappointed, though. After all, having one firm task gave them a foundation. Besides, many teams had taken tasks and left already. If there were any truly suitable tasks that could be completed quickly, they were probably snatched up by those guys.

What a pity.

"Damn it, all the simple tasks have been grabbed by others, and the remaining ones need at least three days to determine if they're complete. Three days! I'm just short of a few points to level up to a second-tier adventurer!"

"You have it good; we've only recently registered as adventurers. Accumulating enough points to level up, who knows how long that will take. I can't wait to exchange for those items. If our team had a Puppet, many tactics that were impossible before could easily be executed, and our task completion efficiency would skyrocket."

"You're telling me. My biggest regret is not undertaking enough tasks in the past. The small adventure group living next to us are task maniacs. We registered in the same period, but now they've gathered almost half the points needed to level up from second to third tier. Just saw them exchange for a bunch of new equipment and I'm so envious!"

Voices of discussion from other teams buzzed around him.

He Yuanhang suddenly felt content.

Happiness came easily when there were unfortunate ones around.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

"Wait, I think I've found a very suitable task!"

"Task? What task! Hurry and take it before someone else does," urged a companion from the same adventure team even more anxiously.

"No." The person's face didn't reveal any hurry, "this task is a collecting type with no upper limit."

"Collecting, that's not easy..."

Before he could finish, he found the task his companion was talking about.

[Collect Source Crystals (One-star Task)]

Hand in ten units of Source Crystals. Reward: 10 points.

His eyes widened.

Was there such a simple task? They were out in the wild every day; who didn't have a few Source Crystals in their pockets?

As for exchanging Source Crystals for points, could that really be a loss?

Impossible!

He had checked the reward list. Simply converting, one point's purchasing power is equivalent to one unit of Source Crystal.

At most, points were only exchangeable for items at the adventurer guild, but that wasn't a loss either.

After all, items purchasable with Source Crystals at the sanctuary were also exchangeable with points. Conversely, some rare items could only be obtained with points, like the ones on the second-tier exchange list.

"Not just that, think about it. If we had enough points and successfully moved up to a second-tier adventure group, we'd get discounts of at the exchange, this way, it's not just breaking even, we're actually making a profit."

He Yuanhang's ears twitched, showing a look of surprise as well.

Other tasks, no matter how suitable or simple, or even if they were close to the sanctuary, all required leaving the sanctuary and heading into the wilderness.

At least a few hours for a round trip, which could not compare to directly handing over Source Crystals for points.

The sanctuary was too considerate!

...

In a room in the castle.

A Crystal Ball floated, displaying the scene at the adventurer guild.

Despite the lack of sound, Tang Yu smiled.

Releasing a host of new items really ignited the awakeners' desire to spend money, significantly increasing the rate at which tasks were taken.

Just a little while ago, they received thousands of units of Source Crystals.

And the points the awakeners earned were mostly used to exchange for equipment, improving their strength, which sped up the rate of earning points.

It was as if the rate at which he, Lord Tang, made money had increased.

"Forget it, they're all a bunch of rough guys, nothing worth looking at. I might as well go upgrade the core buildings. Given the system's usual tricks, if the Territory upgrading to level four brought such significant changes, then the core building's upgrade must bring plenty of surprises too."

In any case, he wasn't lacking in Source Crystals.

When the Source Crystal Mine was depleted, he still had these hardworking adventurers, laboring with great zeal.

After all, they were earning too!
