"Esteemed players, we will now enter the reward calculation phase. First, the basic reward …" Before 0791 could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Guhan.
"Please wait a moment. If I remember correctly, as the ones who unlocked the dungeon, we should have the right to understand the factors that determine the rating of the dungeon, right?" Guhan asked with a smile. Before the First Clear of the hidden dungeon, the rules of the dungeon's rating were kept secret.
However, after the dungeon was successfully cleared, Guhan and the others would be able to know the details of the rules. This was the right of every player who had put in a lot of effort to clear the dungeon.
As for other players, if they wanted to figure out the rules of the dungeon's rating, they could only slowly figure it out through a large number of dungeon clearing attempts. This was a very difficult task and it was impossible to accomplish in a short period of time.
This gave Guhan the opportunity to make money.
After exiting the dungeon calculation center, Guhan would write down a detailed strategy for the "King Arthur's Betrayal" dungeon on the forum. Then, he would post it on the internet and sell it for a price.
This kind of strategy post was known as the First Clear Strategy Post. Within three months after the hidden dungeon was unlocked, other than the First Clear team's post, other players were not allowed to post any other strategy posts for this dungeon. If they violated this rule, the player would be imprisoned in the real world.
This was also one of the game's rewards for the First Clear team. In order to enter the dungeon as soon as possible, they would be the first to clear the dungeon.
Most players would reluctantly fork out five or ten dollars for a subscription.
Generally speaking, it would not be a problem for the number of subscriptions to exceed ten million within three months. Based on the price of five dollars per copy, that would be a large sum of fifty million RMB.
In reality, this amount of income would often exceed eighty million RMB. This was because there would always be some rich people who would give a large sum of money.
In the past, a rich person had given a record of six million RMB to a single copy of the First Clear Strategy Post in Great Canglan Waves. With a total of fifty-six million RMB, it had set a record for the most generous reward in history and was praised by later generations.
According to the agreement between Guhan and Yaoguang, he and Yaoguang Sword Sect would split the income from this guide 50-50.
Even if there was no reward, around 25 million RMB would be directly transferred to Guhan's account, and the remaining 25 million would be transferred to Yaoguang Sword Faction's account. As for how Yaoguang would reward his members and how they would split the rewards, it had nothing to do with Guhan.
The Instance Dungeon's rating conditions were one of the essential contents of the guide. If Guhan didn't post the rating conditions, the rewards would probably plummet.
You didn't even give me a rating, and you still have the nerve to ask for a reward for this post?
"This is the right of the victor, Player Guhan." 0791 nodded silently, then quickly and monotonously recited:
[This instance dungeon is a multi-condition scoring instance dungeon. There are five main scoring conditions.]
[Scoring Condition 1: Artoria must maintain a pure and untainted state. If this condition is not met, all will be rated as F; if condition 5 is not met, the highest rating will be rated as S.
Also, please note that if Artoria is insulted or sexually harassed while unconscious, Artoria will be in an impure state.]
[Scoring Condition 2: There must be at least three survivors in the team. If there are less than three, all will be rated as F; if there are more than three, for every death of a member, the score will drop by one level; if condition 5 is not met, the highest rating will be rated as S.]
[Scoring Condition 3: If you receive Merlin's blessing and don't let Merlin put Artoria down with magic, your score will drop by one level; if condition 5 is not met, the highest rating will be rated as S.]
[Scoring Condition 4: The NPC sword-bearer responsible for protecting the player must not die. If an NPC sword-bearer dies, their score will drop by one level; if condition 5 is not met, the highest rating will be rated as S.]
[Scoring Condition 5: Kill one or more of the three Universe Level Yuan Kou. If condition 5 is met, the highest rating will be rated as SSS or above.]
0791 quickly read out the list of conditions. The others had a headache as they still didn't understand how the scoring was done.
Of course, Gu Han and Wondrous Brush, these two smart people, fully understood this grading condition.
To put it simply, the first condition was a premise. If this premise was not met, the score would be fixed at the lowest F and couldn't be increased.
Conditions 1, 2, and 3 were a series of subtractions. The total score would be rated as S. Then, according to the subtractions of 1, 2, and 3, the remaining score would be the corresponding grade.
If they wanted to get a score above S, they had to kill one or two or three of the three Universe Level Yuan Kou, Nazi King Hitler, Law King Hammurabi, or Four Elephants King Li Yuanba. Only when this condition was met could the other three conditions above condition 5 be rated as SSS.
As Gu Han's party was lucky enough to kill the Nazi King, they fulfilled the fifth condition. That was why they were given an SSS grade overall score.
Condition 1 was naturally met and condition 3 was also met.
As for condition 4, Guhan's team didn't even encounter the NPC swordsman team that was prepared to protect them in Siping City. Naturally, condition 4 was also met.
Only condition 2, Magic Pen, died, causing Guhan's total score to be deducted by one point. Otherwise, Guhan would have been able to directly clear the hidden dungeon with a super SSS rating, creating an unprecedented record … Since the start of the game, no team had been able to complete the First Clear with an SSS rating.
Thinking about it, it was a pity … Guhan couldn't help but dislike Magic Pen. In response, Magic Pen could only helplessly shrug his shoulders.
… …
"Player Military Governor. Player Magic Pen Lancang River. Player Steel Meatball. Player Hongyu. Player You Sicong. Player You Siyu.
Now, we will be giving you the rewards for completing the dungeon!
First, the basic reward for completing the dungeon: RMB 600, 600 Essence Sword Pills, 600 Sword Scar Dust. "Under normal circumstances, the basic reward for completing a Famed Sword Instance Dungeon was 100.
However, Guhan had cleared a 6-man dungeon, so the basic reward was naturally six times that.
"Player Military Governor … (PS: I've left out a bunch of team names in case you guys say I'm weak), this is the first time your dungeon team has cleared the 'King Arthur's Betrayal' dungeon. You can enjoy the benefits of double the first time clearing the dungeon. Your team's overall rating for clearing the dungeon is SS. According to the rules, you can enjoy 30 times the basic reward for the team."
"Player Military Governor … your team's final dungeon reward: RMB 18000, 18000 Essence Sword Pills, 18000 Sword Scar Dust. Please continue to work hard and reach new heights!"
"Player Military Governor, you are the team leader. Please distribute the team rewards.
Please distribute the rewards according to the criteria of no less than 5% for each player and no more than 50% for each team member. "
Tsk tsk, according to 0791, if Gu Han did not like anyone in his party, he would be given the lowest 5%, which was 900 … and then 50%, which was 9000, for himself. It did not make any sense at all. It did not make sense for a party leader to have such a privilege. It was not fair at all.
However, this was a method the system specifically used to strengthen the team's authority. If a team member did not follow the team leader's instructions during an instance dungeon, it would be a very troublesome matter. However, the team leader did not have a good way to punish such a team member.
Thus, the system came up with this rule, using the final reward distribution to establish the team leader's authority and prestige. If you dare to cause trouble, don't even think about getting a good reward …
Some players might ask: What if I listen to the team leader's instructions, but the team leader, for the sake of his own interests or because he dislikes me, forcefully gives me the lowest reward?
Truth be told, this kind of situation is very rare. That is because this kind of situation only occurs in wild teams.
Generally speaking, it would not be a team from a Sword Sect.
If the team leader of a Sword Sect dared to do such a thing, his reputation would be tarnished … he would be kicked out of his sect. Who would give him the chance to become the team leader?
Players would generally not find wild teams to participate in an instance dungeon. If they were forced to find wild teams, they would first apply to the system to monitor the entire process.
Once the team leader's reward distribution was uneven, they could complain to the accountant on the spot.
The accountant would let the system's AI analyze the entire instance dungeon. After confirming that no team members were disobeying the team leader's instructions, the system would strip the team leader's reward and distribute all the rewards equally to the remaining team members.
As for the team leader himself, he would enjoy the reward of being banned for a month. If there was a second time, he would be banned for a year.
Thus, situations where the team leader's reward distribution was unfair were very rare.
Back to the topic of Guhan. Although it was very tempting to give 50% of the reward to himself, and he believed that the other team members would not care about it, they were all experts with hundreds of thousands of sword elements. These rewards were not very important to them. The total reward was only 18000, and if it was divided equally, each of them would only get 3,000. It was not worth it to fall out with Guhan over such a small amount of reward.
However, Guhan did not intend to get 50% of the reward for himself. Guhan also did not want to leave behind evidence of his greed in front of others for the sake of these sword elements.
"Divide it equally!" Guhan said calmly.
He did not even deduct Magic Pen's share. Logically speaking, it was not unreasonable for Guhan to give him 5%.
"Okay, everyone, keep your rewards!" Hence, the large pile of rewards was divided into six equal portions and placed in front of everyone.
However, it did not take long before Steel Centipede jumped up and pointed at his reward. "That's not right. The amount is wrong!"
"It's not right?" Guhan was stunned. The reward was missing?
Impossible. The system would not make a mistake in the reward. This kind of mistake was too low-level. "Sword Maiden Online" had been in operation for more than 200 years, and such a thing had never happened before.
"Miss 0791, why is this reward 3100?
Why is there an extra 100? "
Steel Centipede asked loudly. 'So it's an extra hundred. Brat, it's fine if you keep it to yourself. Why did you say it out loud?
"Sorry, I forgot to explain to you. Before you, there was a team that cleared the dungeon with an F grade result. However, because they did not complete the First Clear, the reward was not distributed. Instead, it was distributed to the first team that completed the First Clear!
That is, your team. "
"So this is the reward of my Junior Brother Long Yu …" Magic Pen said with a bitter smile. This was too ridiculous.
