Chapter 103 Unlocking Quests and Enhancement Levels
Win and you earn 3? Lose and you earn 1?
Go for it! Only a fool wouldn't do it.
This is the first reaction of most underground fighters.
But Ma Jie didn't rush to agree; instead, he first confirmed the opponent's information.
If you bring three lapdogs like Choi Dong-ho to fight me in a war of attrition, who can stand it?
First of all, they were already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, and their victory was only due to the "fake boxing champion" summoning a god.
If you give me a plaster cast wrapped around my hand, body oil, and a biased referee package, then I might have the life to receive that 3 yuan but not the life to spend it.
Hearing his doubts, Sava patted his chest and assured him.
Since the last referee corruption incident, the club owner ordered an internal purge, kicking out all the referees and related staff involved in bribery.
Although I don't know if he's telling the truth, I'll choose to believe him one last time out of consideration for our old friendship.
After all, this guy was a poor soul. When it came time to split the profits, he didn't ask for more than he was entitled to. He had done everything he was supposed to do, so if an uncontrollable special situation occurred, there was no way to blame him.
Everyone in the camp was overjoyed to learn that Majek had decided to return to the boxing ring, especially Sandy, a big fan who was determined to be part of his cheering squad this time since she hadn't seen his amazing performance last time.
In terms of roster configuration, it's the same old lineup: Sava as agent, Max as head coach, and Jimmy as medical technician.
Based on the review of the previous match, the first thing that needs to be done is to have an agent, sign contracts, arrange procedures, and standardize the event.
Without the protection of an agent, it's not a fight, it's a brawl.
The head coach is the same; he provides daily training and off-field guidance, helps call timeouts in emergencies, and communicates with the referee team in a timely manner to ensure the boxers' best interests.
Medical technicians may not seem to be that useful, but they are like health insurance. You can live your whole life without getting sick, but would you dare to live your whole life without health insurance?
More formal teams will also include sparring partners, strength and conditioning coaches, nutritionists, competition video analysts, team leaders, and promoters.
To put it simply, this thing is like a car; the high-end version can run, and the low-end version can also run.
Even if you cut costs to the limit, you still need tires, fuel tanks, and engines.
Once you understand this principle, you won't feel the pinch when it comes time to split the money.
The match is scheduled for next Friday, which is neither a long nor a short time.
For the first three days, the quest was still locked due to the negative buff from the [Demon Contract].
Then let's split the time in half, use one half for training and the other half for farming.
"Come on, pay attention to the key points, faster, even faster."
"That's right, that's it! Push harder, keep pushing, be even rougher, fuck me to death!"
"Oh yeah, keep this rhythm, imagine I'm a lioness and you're the hunter who wants to conquer me."
"Hold onto my legs, hold on tight, and get ready for a legtrip."
"Fuck! It's a leg, not an ass! This is your Nth mistake already. I think you're doing it on purpose, aren't you?"
Early in the morning, before the birds in the camp were even awake, they were woken up by Max's terrible lines.
They were so uncomfortable that they covered their heads with blankets or stuffed their ears with crumpled paper.
Those who know you're training, but those who don't, would think you're filming an adult movie.
She was wearing a training target that looked a bit like a bear paw, with a white dot about the size of a coin in the palm.
By posing in various ways to be hit, Ma Jieke is guided to throw punches from different directions, angles, and distances.
By consistently practicing this over a long period, one's offensive skills, reaction time, and sense of distance can all improve rapidly.
Anyway, I train for an hour every day, and then I train for triathlons in the morning sun.
Looking at the devilish female coach who was leading the race in only a sports bra and shorts, Ma Jieke confirmed that this scene was a one-to-one replica.
Over three days, I ran almost all the city's running tracks and green parks in Los Angeles, and even did a long period of skinny dipping in San Pedro Bay and cycling through the scenic West Canyon.
It was less like special training and more like a vacation, allowing for a truly immersive experience from a real-life perspective.
Of course, if you come across any high-value question marks along the way, you should still check them off.
To ensure that neither task was delayed, Jimmy was specially arranged to drive and accompany them. In the end, a large number of lost items were recovered, which, when all were converted into cash, would definitely be worth no less than $2000.
Taking this opportunity, I also told them about my plan to participate in "Warehouse Treasure Hunt King" and that I was still missing several teammates.
The two hit it off immediately and decided to invite Sandy and Fiona to join them in registering for the show.
Although Grace promised to give the amateur a symbolic performance fee, this amount would not be enough to cover the bidding costs.
If you team up with a bunch of penniless guys, won't you just make a fool of yourself?
Before Ma Jie appeared, Max was the publicly acknowledged richest man.
After all, she's the only one who can afford to live in a motorhome, and she also earns a stable cash flow by helping new players obtain fake documents.
No one in the camp knew how much money Jimmy had, but rumors suggested it might be over 30,000, or even more.
Because his living costs were almost zero, he ate only from the food trucks, his daily necessities were from the shelter, and even the clothes he wore were taken from the charity box.
He doesn't buy cigarettes or alcohol, doesn't play around with women or smoke marijuana, receives monthly welfare payments, sells food stamps, and makes money by collecting cans. He's practically a ruthless money-making machine.
As for Sandy, he's the type who doesn't make a sale for three years, but when he does, he makes enough to last him three years. As long as he's willing to take the risk, scraping together a few thousand dollars is a piece of cake for him.
However, it's easy to stray into the wrong territory and get hunted down by gang members, so income is extremely unstable.
Of all the homeless people, Fiona was the most pragmatic, after all, she came from a poor family and had experienced several failed business ventures.
The painful lesson made her realize that people can only earn money within their understanding, and any investment behavior that exceeds their comprehension is essentially gambling.
On the fourth day, he finally made it out of prison.
The first thing I do when I open my eyes in the morning is to check the task panel.
[Main Mission: Get a patrol officer to accept your gift of a donut and take a photo together] Reward Value: ★
[Side Quest: Photograph 10 different styles of street graffiti, current progress 0/10] Reward Value: ★★☆
[Challenge Task: Run naked through the city, ensuring you are seen by at least 188 passersby. Current progress: 0/188] Reward Value: ★★★★★
The main quest is so easy to complete, it's practically free, after all, the donut is also known as the "cops trap".
You're worried I'll poison you? Then just pick any convenience store, and I'll buy it for you on the spot. It's nothing more than goodwill.
As for the side quests, they're not too difficult; they just involve running around a bit more and you can collect question marks along the way, killing two birds with one stone.
Ma Jieke was utterly speechless at the final challenge.
Immorality is secondary; the key is that once she reveals her secret weapon, it will definitely provoke many men.
After all, there's no harm without comparison. If my buddies get together and report me, I'll be at a huge loss.
California law defines public display of sexual activity as "indecent exposure," punishable by up to six months in jail and mandatory registration for 10 people.
Years of criminal records.
It's just a five-star mission, there's really no need to push it too hard, so we can only strategically give up.
After a busy day, the main quest was easily completed.
The photo shows a fat policeman with high blood sugar, laughing like a 300-pound child, after all, Ma Jie gave him a whole box of chocolate coating and cream filling.
The side missions were more difficult than I expected; I had to drive through dozens of city blocks to collect all the mission objectives.
Everything else is fine, but the Black community is truly inhumane. As soon as I drove in, a few kids were throwing stones at me like dogs, and my car window was almost smashed.
When it came time to settle the rewards, the one-star mission, as usual, gave three basic skills.
[Lock Picking Lv1]: Permanently enhances your ability to open various locks. Can be upgraded multiple times.
【Mixed Martial Arts 1v1】: Permanently improve your mixed martial arts skills; multiple selections can be used to upgrade.
【Quenching Thirst by Looking at Plums (Active)】: Restores the body's required water after activation, providing 100% water replenishment. Cooldown: 10 days.
Upon seeing this "looking at plums to quench thirst," Ma Jie immediately thought of the idiom "drawing a cake to satisfy hunger."
Both have the same skill mechanism, except that "Drawing a cake to satisfy hunger" replenishes calories, while "Looking at plums to quench thirst" replenishes water.
If you can acquire both of these skills at the same time, you can definitely participate in "Wilderness Solitary".
However, Ma Jieke had also learned in advance that the conditions for participating in "Living Alone in the Wilderness" were very strict.
Tens of thousands of people apply each season, requiring repeated submissions and screenings, with only ten contestants ultimately able to participate in the show's recording.
Among the ten contestants, only the final champion can take home the 100-square-meter prize.
Anyway, if you don't participate in this program, acquiring the relevant skills will just be a waste of time.
As for [slipping through doors and picking locks], it's not impossible, but its priority is definitely not as high as [mixed martial arts], since it will be used soon.
After selecting [Mixed Martial Arts Lv1], the skill panel showed that it had leveled up to [Mixed Martial Arts Lv2].
Although the upgrade this time was relatively small, the side quests were quite helpful, as I obtained the most useful [Skill Enhancement] skill.
【Skill Enhancement (Consumable)】: Select an existing skill to enhance, including but not limited to increasing the level, increasing the duration, reducing the cooldown, and adding one or more traits.
Based on practical considerations, Ma Jie narrowed down his enhancement goals to [Mixed Martial Arts] and [Fake Boxing Champion].
First of all, the fake boxing champion has no level skill, so it definitely can't be upgraded.
In terms of duration, it's basically meaningless. If you can't even kill your opponent in ten minutes, then what's the point of having a fighting match?
The most useful feature is the cooldown, but the [Fake Boxer] cooldown is three days long, so it won't really be effective unless it's reduced to below 15 minutes.
A skill enhancement of two and a half stars? You couldn't possibly reduce it that much with a chrysanthemum.
As for special features, I've already consulted the gods. Whether you give me special features or not, what difference does it make?
