When redeeming fifteen days of life two days ago, Cheng Yu unexpectedly received a sum of points.
Moreover, the points are quite expensive.
The system's comment on the fifty points was "It's on my head, good job".
The first sentence seems a bit bitter, but the second sentence shows that the system seems to be willing to reward Cheng Yu for using fewer points to exchange for a longer life.
So, if you can get points rewards by redeeming the same life span with fewer points, will it cause that when Cheng Yu uses more points to redeem, the system will judge that this is a waste and deduct some of Cheng Yu's points? Not to mention, this possibility is very high, at least based on the urinary properties of the system, this possibility is really very high.
In addition, when the system answered Cheng Yu's question just now, Cheng Yu always felt that the guy's tone was a bit naughty, and Cheng Yu even felt that the system was setting a trap for him.
So, Cheng Yu asked: "After I have experienced using 20% off points to redeem life, if I choose one day of life the next time I redeem life, will the system judge this as a waste and deduct my points?" The system's answer was very formulaic. It said: "The question asked by the host is beyond the scope of this task. Please enable the host to activate the dialogue function before asking."
This answer seems to be unanswered, but to a certain extent, it seems to have answered Cheng Yu.
After all, if the system doesn't deduct points for this, it doesn't matter if it answers Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu already had this idea. If he risked his life and was deducted a certain amount of points, the answer would naturally come out.
Or, anyway, Cheng Yu can get the answer to this question just by using the dialogue function, so why doesn't the system tell him? This only takes up two or three seconds of dialogue time.
Therefore, only when Cheng Yu's question has hit the point, the system will deliberately give such an ambiguous answer.
Cunning system!
"Okay, let me ask about the task itself. Are there rewards and penalties for completing the task and not completing it?"
"Yes. If you complete the task within the stipulated time, you will get a certain reward. If the task is not completed after the stipulated time, you will be punished by deducting a certain amount of points. If the points owned by the host are not enough,
The system will automatically convert the host's life span into points and then deduct them."
Cheng Yu frowned and continued to ask: "Can life duration be redeemed in reverse?"
"The host does not have this permission, and the system will not exercise this permission under any circumstances other than when the host has insufficient points."
Cheng Yu understood. This means that the system will only do this when the points deducted are greater than Cheng Yu's remaining points.
This is like Cheng Yu's points being deducted twice, once seven points and another one hundred points. If Cheng Yu's points were not enough to be deducted, the system would use his life time to reversely redeem points to achieve the purpose of deduction. And once the points redeemed by life time are not enough to be deducted, there is no doubt that Cheng Yu will directly - well, die.
"I knew this damn mission system was not a good thing!" Cheng Yu said to himself. After all, Cheng Yu could actually avoid the waste and point deductions caused by some irregular behaviors to a large extent, and even
He will almost never give himself the chance to have points deducted in the future.
However, whether the task is completed or not, the initiative is not in Cheng Yu's hands.
Doesn’t this mean that the system has found an excuse and reason to deduct Cheng Yu’s points at any time?
Damn, you are so shameless!
However, Cheng Yu had no choice but to abide by the rules set by the system.
"With this reverse exchange, how many points can be redeemed for one day's life time? After all, when I redeem life time, it may be 10% off, or it may be 20% off. Even when I continue to upgrade, the discount I will receive for redeeming life time in the future will be greater.
Come lower and lower."
"No matter how much discount the host enjoys in redeeming the life duration, when the system reversely redeems the life duration, it will follow the basic redemption rule of twenty life points per day."
This answer actually made Cheng Yu feel relieved.
But Cheng Yu understood that this was just a way for the system to give him a sweet date after giving him a stick. After all, when there was no mission, there was no chance that he would be deducted points.
"Is there a direct correlation between the intensity of rewards and punishments and the length of the task?"
"The host is indeed a top student at the University of Southern California. Others would probably never think of this problem." The system praised Cheng Yu, but Cheng Yu didn't think it was anything to be proud of.
"The penalty for mission failure is that when the host returns the mission duration, the life duration corresponding to the mission duration will be deducted."
This sentence was a bit difficult to pronounce, but with Cheng Yu's logical ability, he understood it immediately.
"What you mean by this is that after a task is released, its duration will not take up my own life time?"
"The host is indeed a top student at the University of Southern California. If it had been anyone else, they would have never thought of this problem."
The system praised Cheng Yu again, but why is this sentence exactly the same as the one just now?
"The punishment is said to be a deduction of points, but in fact it is a deduction of life duration. Does this mean that the life duration calculated by the system is all based on twenty points per day?"
"The host is indeed a top student at the University of Southern California. If it were someone else..."
"It's dirt!" Cheng Yu directly interrupted the system's completely unintentional compliment. What the hell do I want you to praise me for? You use the exact same words to praise me every time. Isn't this basically humiliating me?
The system seemed to think it was a bit excessive, so it explained: "After the system is released, the host's remaining life span will be temporarily frozen until the time required for the task is completely completed, or the countdown will not be restarted until the task is completed." Well, this is a relatively complete answer.
However, this exposed a new piece of information.
Cheng Yu asked again: "For example, a task takes fifteen days, and it only takes me one day to complete it, and I start counting down my life again. Doesn't this mean that I should complete it within the deadline specified by the task's duration in order to complete it?
Maximizing profits?"
System: "Hey hey."
Hey, Mahler Gobi, hey, are you mocking me, or are you playing with me?
But Cheng Yu soon realized something.
He asked again: "What are the rewards for the mission?"
The system did not laugh at Cheng Yu again this time, but answered step by step: "The host finally asked about the reward. In fact, if it were someone else, wouldn't he ask about the reward from the beginning?"
"I am a person who may die at any time. Can't you figure out the bad side of everything first? Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and answer my questions."
"The host is really a murderer." The system said without emotion, and that tone really didn't deserve a beating.
"The task reward is the remaining part of the task duration, and the remaining time will be converted into corresponding points for the distribution of rewards."
Cheng Yu suddenly realized.
It's no wonder that the system just said "hehe". The remaining mission time is closely related to the rewards that Cheng Yu can get. However, Cheng Yu wants to use up the mission time as much as possible to stay alive. This is obviously a loss that outweighs the gain.
Crazy behavior.
According to this rule, if Cheng Yu completes the ten-day task in one day, he will not only get the remaining nine days as a reward for his life span, but he will even get 180 points.
There is no doubt that the sooner the task is completed, the better it will be for Cheng Yucai.
