【Settlement is complete, please proceed.】

Feng Jue read through the settlement list. His level did not increase; he was still level 11. However, his experience reached 4900/11000, and his game coins had reached 77000. It seemed that his previous worry about leveling up too quickly was completely unnecessary; in fact, he was leveling up far too slowly.

This time, the experience gained could be considered average. In team survival mode, the skill points experience bonus and game coin bonus are calculated at ten times and one hundred times the skill points, respectively. In single-player survival mode, they are calculated at one time and ten times, respectively, with a significant difference. Additionally, the duration of the game also determines the amount of experience gained to some extent. For example, this script took about an hour longer than the previous one, though the difficulty was not high (scripts with a lower combat ratio were not difficult for Feng Jue), the base experience gained at the end of the settlement was slightly higher than the previous script.

Even so, this experience was far from enough to level up Feng Jue. Without cracking the worldview, similar difficulty team scripts generally require four to five experiences to level up.

From this, it can be seen that the members of the studio also had a tough time. From the start of the beta test on April 4th at 8:00 AM to around midnight on April 6th, about forty hours of real time had passed. Converting this into game time for both modes and subtracting the necessary offline intervals... it means they fought for about five days in the virtual world to reach level 20.

Feng Jue's total game time in the virtual world did not exceed ten hours, so compared to the professionals, he was still in the early stages.

"Hmm... this time, it's better to take the experience points," Feng Jue muttered. "Xiao Tan's level will likely always be one or two levels behind me... but after the open beta, if he buys some experience cards and boost cards, he should catch up quickly." He thought, "Speaking of which... although leveling up after level 11 is slower, during the beta test, a level difference of five or less doesn't mean much... a level 10 and a level 15 player only differ by 500 health points. Acquiring equipment can significantly change one's strength in a short time, but improving specialties and adding skills seems to be a long-term strategy. Like..." He thought of Si Yu Ruo Li's sword-wielding figure: "Her level isn't much higher than mine, but that kind of skill... her combat specialty must be at least D."

Thinking about this, Feng Jue opened the game menu and checked his specialties. After the previous script, his specialties became: General E, Equipment E, Reconnaissance E, Combat E, Shooting F, and Medical still not unlocked.

In short, he had raised all four specialties except Shooting from F to E.

【E Level: Poor, beginner level, at this level, the success rate of skills in this category is 40%】

So far, except for Medical, Feng Jue's specialties were all slightly understood, but none were particularly outstanding, which made his combat ability questionable.

Additionally, his title "Cold Blooded Headshot Maniac" did not change after this script, so his special ability remained "Concussion."

After reading the system settlement list, Feng Jue went to the metal room outside the elevator. This time, there were three glass pillars in the metal room. They were the random skill from the script completion reward, the selectable reward from the fear rating, and the random equipment from the hidden mission.

He first went to the selectable reward, and the prompt immediately sounded: 【Please choose your additional reward: 1. Randomly draw a piece of equipment corresponding to your level, 2. 50,000 game coins (cap), 3. 4,400 experience points】

"It seems that as long as you get a 'Fearless' rating above level 10, the game coin option will always be 50,000..." Feng Jue muttered.

In this period when game coins are useless, the market exchange rate between game coins and RMB is not yet clear, so he temporarily did not consider acquiring them. This time, he decisively chose the experience points. After receiving 40% of the current level's experience, Feng Jue's experience reached 9,300/11,000. Completing another script should allow him to level up to 12.

Next, he went to the glass pillar for the script completion reward and took out the random skill card, checking it through the menu:

【Name: Brat's Back Kick】

【Skill Card Attribute: Active skill, disappears after three uses】

【Skill Category: Combat】

【Effect: Ignores specialty level, 100% trips all monsters that can theoretically be tripped, and provokes them to attack you】

【Cost: 100 health points】

【Learning Condition: Combat specialty F or level 10 and above】

【Note: This is like the 'Blue Cat's 3000 Kicks'!】

"What the heck..." Feng Jue stared at the skill card for a long time. The name and note were simply incomprehensible, but the skill's effect seemed quite strong.

Feng Jue thought for a moment and decided to equip it. This kind of prank-like skill didn't seem like something he could sell after the open beta, and giving it to someone else... felt like imposing something he didn't want on others.

After equipping the skill, he at least had an active skill he could use in combat. Then, Feng Jue went to the last glass pillar, hoping his bad luck wouldn't continue.

However, he already had a premonition. On the settlement screen, the hidden mission reward was written as "Randomly obtain one piece of fine equipment," but it didn't say "corresponding to your level," indicating that the equipment was at least fine, but he might not be able to equip it.

A white light materialized, revealing an item that looked like a belt. Feng Jue's first thought... it might be Batman's utility belt. But he was wrong; this one was even stronger.

【Name: Echo Armor】

【Type: Armor】

【Quality: Fine】

【Defense: Strong】

【Attribute: Cushioning】

【Special Effect: None】

【Equipment Condition: General specialty C or Equipment specialty D】

【Note: After collecting some whispers from Black Bolt, Doctor Doom used this immense energy to create this device. The user can activate the belt to gain an invisible 'sound' armor.】

This equipment was very strong, but unfortunately, Feng Jue couldn't equip it yet. However, he still put it in his inventory, carrying it with him. Since his Equipment specialty was already E, he would try to raise it to D in the next script to immediately equip this.

Currently, his inventory capacity was 7/10, and the items inside were: Mario's pipe wrench, Eye of Enmity, Western kitchen knife, baseball bat, flashlight, M1911A1 pistol, Echo Armor.

The Dance of Jazz was directly equipped on his feet and did not occupy inventory space. The items in his storage space remained the same: a spare flashlight and the puzzle card: Monkey.

After collecting the rewards and preparing, Feng Jue returned to the elevator and called Wang Tan. Xiao Tan transferred the captain role to Feng Jue, and the two then joined a new queue, about to enter the second team survival script of the night.
