Tang Cheng's gains from this official scenario were quite substantial. The first main mission earned him 880 survival points, and although the second main mission had no reward, the giants he killed before and after could circle the capital, earning him 500 points. The third main mission was even more impressive, with 1000 points for killing a super-large giant, plus 1500 points for the mission, and finally 1000 points for completing the scenario... In total, this scenario earned him 4880 survival points and a D-grade cycle card, not to mention the rewards from side missions.
Just these gains alone were enough to put ordinary new challengers far behind Tang Cheng, and even those who had experienced three or four scenarios might not match him. If the side mission rewards were added, his performance would rival the average gains of the top ten teams, and might even surpass them.
However, despite such abundant results, Tang Cheng was not at all happy, because he had also received something very unpleasant—a "Heartless Man" title.
"Title: Heartless Man."
"Effect: The holder of this title will reduce the affection of female creatures by 20%, increase the affection of evil male creatures by 20%, and has a certain chance to provoke unprovoked attacks from female creatures."
"Note: To abandon a 15-year-old wife and a fertilized egg child for the trivial dream of stars and the sea, you are truly a scoundrel. Go die!"
"Damn!" Seeing the malicious effects and note, Tang Cheng couldn't help but curse... No, he had already cursed, "What the hell is this? I killed so many giants and humans, and you don't even give me a 'Thousand Slashes' or 'Hundred Slashes' title. I just ate the little apple I trained, it's not a big deal. Why give me such a trashy title? Come to think of it, wasn't it all because of the stars and the sea? System, you're great, come out, I want to fight you one-on-one!"
Tang Cheng stood in his room, looking up at the ceiling and cursing. In the entire cycle world, he was probably the only one who dared to challenge the central system.
"Isn't this natural?" The auxiliary spirit Xiao Ping, floating beside Tang Cheng, said expressionlessly, "The trigger for achievement tasks depends not on how many you kill, but on the impact of your actions."
"Do you think rolling in bed with a lolicon for ten days has a greater impact than overthrowing a human government?" Tang Cheng asked incredulously.
"Of course," Xiao Ping replied without hesitation, "The giants in that world are countless. No matter how many you kill, you can't shake the foundation of the giants. Although you overthrew a human government, you also established a new one, which is essentially the same, just turning the bad into the good. But the woman you overthrew was the queen of that world. Her every word and action will determine the future of humans and giants. Especially since you made her pregnant, the child who inherits your bloodline has the potential to change the entire world... Do you think this impact is small?"
"..." Tang Cheng was stunned. She made so much sense, he had no words to counter!
"But even so, it should be a 'Lolicon' or 'Let Go of the Queen' title, not a 'Heartless Man.' What's the deal with this?"
"Didn't you abandon them for your dreams? This is the same as Chen Shiming abandoning Qin Xianglian to become a prince. Isn't this heartless enough? Think about Chen Shiming's fate, such heartless behavior directly led to the destruction of two families, with profound implications that have lasted for a thousand years..." Xiao Ping lectured, making Tang Cheng speechless. She then comforted him, "Besides, don't you think few women in this world are worthy of you? Having such a title can avoid being harassed by fangirls, isn't that good?"
"The effect is nothing. With my 300% charm to the opposite sex, even if it's reduced by 20%, it's still 240%. Girls will still be unable to resist me..." Hearing this, Xiao Ping pursed her lips and made a "tsk" sound, then saw Tang Cheng frown, "But that note is full of malice. What if it makes me feel guilty and remorseful?"
"Do you have a sense of guilt and remorse?" Xiao Ping was surprised.
"Of course not!" Tang Cheng laughed, "All those principles of ethics, morality, conscience, and chastity were thrown to the ground and blown away by the wind ten years ago."
"No, I think some things should still be picked up, like..."
"Like?"
"Chastity."
"Chastity? Hmph!" Tang Cheng sneered, quickly took out paper and pen, wrote "Chastity" in large letters, and threw it to Xiao Ping, "Here, take it!"
Xiao Ping: "..."
With this idle chat, the disgust Tang Cheng felt from the "Heartless Man" title gradually disappeared. Not dwelling on it, not overthinking, for some unhappy and helpless things, just cursing a few times could make him feel better, and he would never get stuck in a rut... In Xiao Ping's view, this was probably one of the few aspects of Tang Cheng's character that could be praised.
Next, Tang Cheng began to check the rewards from the side missions.
Tang Cheng's special side mission received an A rating. According to Xiao Ping, the highest rating for such missions is S, so Tang Cheng was very dissatisfied with his rating. He had done so well, and an S rating would be the least he deserved to match his efforts and his identity as a six-star super rookie...
"Sure enough, the cycle world hasn't given up on suppressing me."
Spouting words that filled Xiao Ping with disdain, Tang Cheng began to count his reward items.
1500 survival points, two D-grade cycle cards, and a Pandora's Box—these were all the rewards from his side mission.
To be honest, the survival points were a bit low, but the two cycle cards more than made up for it. From this, Tang Cheng could see the difference between main missions and side missions. The former seemed to focus on survival points, meaning the rewards for main missions were primarily survival points, while side missions focused more on cycle cards.
Perhaps because of this distinction, cycle cards were particularly precious. After all, not everyone could trigger side missions, and in a single-player scenario, there were limits on the number of side missions.
Leaving this aside, what Tang Cheng was more concerned about was the Pandora's Box.
When he took it out of his backpack, he was surprised to find that this so-called Pandora's Box was actually a cubic box about 1.2 meters high... No, to be precise, it was a chest. The surface of the chest was engraved with colorful patterns, looking not only high-end, grand, and upscale but also full of mystery.
Xiao Ping explained, "Pandora's Box is a special item in the cycle world, obtainable only through special side missions, and only if the rating is A or higher. However, it's not guaranteed. Statistically, you need to complete three A-rated or higher special side missions to get one Pandora's Box."
"So cool, what's inside?"
"The contents of Pandora's Box are uncertain, similar to the lottery system for cycle cards, but with a key difference: everything obtained from Pandora's Box is unique and cannot be exchanged from the central system. It also won't be something the challenger can't use... Generally, it's special magical equipment or divine armaments, though occasionally, some strange things may appear."
"Strange things?" Tang Cheng pinched his chin, then pointed at the Pandora's Box, frowning, "What if I open it and a naked lolicon tied up with ropes jumps out? If that happens, elementary school students would definitely lose control!"
