Chapter 466 Special Quest Preparation Phase
Over the next few days, Shye meticulously calculated the appropriate division contribution point prices for each reward.
However, due to the difficulty in accurately pricing a few high-quality items, Shye had to place an "experimental, price may change" note beneath those items' shelf slots.
The division members didn't dare complain, though, as they understood that it was indeed difficult to price such items using a newly established division currency.
Most of them were grateful for even having a chance to obtain such items.
After all, despite their early successes in reaching Valenzia City, most of them did not have much luck on the big stage and were slowly drowning in the shadows of luckier and more talented adventurers.
However, Shye's rather unique and hard-to-obtain rewards gave them a chance to turn their fates around, hence, most of them suddenly realized that joining Shye's division early was the best decision they had ever made.
By doing so, they had already demonstrated their loyalty and faith in the abilities of the division leader, unlike those who joined only after the division had achieved success.
Based on their assumptions about Shye's character, formed during the few months they had spent together, the early division members were confident that they would indeed enjoy some minor advantages in the future.
Would it be enough to propel them to the highest ranks? They didn't know.
However, they were sure that they would at least surpass what they would have achieved if they joined another division.
Who knows? Perhaps one day, as their formidable division leader ascends to the skies like a dragon, they too will soar alongside him, even if only as his winged wyvern subordinates.
Such a future would surely be preferable to being mere chickens on the ground, pecking at whatever they could find.
Meanwhile, the division leader himself was not present in the division lounge as after stabilizing the situation in the division, Shye focused on himself once more.
He recently earned a lot of points and received great rewards from the Valenzia Rookie Adventurer Competition.
And since the difficulty of the special quest he had to complete was rather high, Shye had to prepare.
First and foremost, he had to assess his current capabilities, and what he could improve to increase his chances of clearing the (A-) ranked Abomination Lord Dungeon.
Lord dungeons, unlike mana dungeons, didn't have limiters.
For example, the number of creatures that could spawn inside a mana dungeon had always been fixed.
This was a well-known fact throughout Adthiopia.
However, each spawned creature's strength could vary depending on how much mana a mana dungeon has siphoned from its surroundings.
As for lord dungeons, there were no such limiters, meaning that there could be thousands or even tens of thousands of creatures inside.
Remembering something, Shye immediately opened the mandatory quest to check the rewards.
'Aih... why am I fretting? I can just complete the quest and immediately upgrade the system using the points rewarded from the mandatory quest!'
With this realization, Shye stopped hesitating whether he should spend points or not, ultimately opting to acquire an [Epic]-tier burst-type warrior skill regardless of its cost.
Accessing the system interface, Shye navigated to the skill shop once more, promptly selecting the [Epic]-tier section and filtering the warrior skills to streamline his search.
'Damn...a hundred thousand points minimum for a single skill?'
Shye felt a bit discouraged when he saw the prices of the skills.
However, as he remembered that these skills would be invaluable for battles and increasing his chances of conquering the lord dungeon, he stopped hesitating and began the arduous task of reading each skill's description.
After spending a full hour lying on his rented room's bed, scrolling through the skill descriptions, Shye finally found what he was looking for: a burst-type single-target skill designed solely to annihilate the target.
