Chapter 490 Infinite Tasks
Titan Arum, because the methods of its cultivation are somewhat shady.
So, even the official stance is not to openly acknowledge its existence.
"Commander, do you need Titan Arum?" Liang Bing asked with some curiosity.
After all, even though Titan Arum is rare, ordinary people do not usually need it.
"Indeed I do," Su Chen nodded and said.
"This thing, it's rather tricky to obtain..." Liang Bing slightly furrowed her brow.
Although she had never seen Titan Arum,
she had heard about it.
This item is extremely precious, mainly because its cultivation is incredibly cumbersome.
It actually requires the use of human corpses for cultivation.
In Huaxia, there's a belief in letting the soul return to its homeland, and there's great respect for corpses.
Therefore, obtaining corpses can only be done through some shady methods.
After all, the number of corpses available through donations would never be enough to cultivate a single Titan Arum.
The state indeed has some, but they are generally used for scientific research, or only very important individuals are qualified to use them.
Even as a Dragon Group Soldier, Liang Bing would not be able to get Titan Arum.
"You just have to tell me how to get it," said Su Chen, obviously aware of the difficulty in obtaining Titan Arum.
A single Titan Arum can yield thousands of bottles of Omega.
And the price of one bottle of Omega is already astronomical.
"Once, the Dragon Team had an indefinite mission, where the reward for completing it was Titan Arum," Liang Bing answered.
She knew about Titan Arum precisely because of that mission the Dragon Team had once posted.
"Oh? What mission?" Su Chen surprised.
"It involves completing continuous missions, increasing points for success, deducting points for failing, and accumulating a total of one hundred thousand points within a month in order to exchange for Titan Arum," Liang Bing explained.
Su Chen thought it over and felt that although this method might be a waste of time, with his ability, it probably wouldn't be too big of a problem.
After all, the strength of the Dragon Team is far below that of the Reverse Dragon Group.
Even tasks that are considered High Rank for the Dragon Team would just be ordinary tasks for the Reverse Dragon Group.
"Commander, don't think that just because it's a mission posted by the Dragon Team it's going to be easy—there are still many that are extremely difficult to complete," Liang Bing spoke up when she saw Su Chen seemed unconcerned.
Su Chen nodded, saying, "What are the requirements for taking on this mission? Joining the Dragon Team?"
If he needed to join the Dragon Team, it would be quite troublesome for Su Chen.
He was once a member of the Reverse Dragon Group.
Created specifically to punish traitors of the Dragon Team.
Now, to join the Dragon Team...
"No, this mission is open to anyone, it's a public mission, there's no need to join the Dragon Team."
"Oh?" That would be good news for Su Chen.
"Commander, do you intend to take on that indefinite mission?"
"Yes, I am in urgent need of Titan Arum," Su Chen nodded.
"But Commander, if you show your face, I think you might be able to get the Titan Arum directly," Liang Bing expressed some confusion.
She didn't know the specifics of Su Chen's identity,
but she knew it was definitely much higher than hers.
Even more so than the Chief Captain of the Jiangdu Dragon Team Division.
After all, the capabilities Su Chen had shown before were probably beyond what even the Chief Captain of the Jiangdu Dragon Team Division could achieve, right?
So Liang Bing thought.
As long as Su Chen revealed his identity, the Dragon Team might directly give him the Titan Arum.
Yet, Su Chen just gave a wry smile upon hearing this.
The identity of the Reverse Dragon Group is almost unknown domestically.
It was even possible that the Jiangdu Dragon Team Division didn't know of the Reverse Dragon Group's existence.
Only some super entities in Emperor City might know of it.
Moreover, even if they knew, Su Chen could no longer use the identity of the Reverse Dragon Group.
After all, the Reverse Dragon Group had already been disbanded.
There was a significant reason behind Su Chen's decision to disband the Reverse Dragon Group.
That was his sister-in-law's betrayal.
He always felt that his sister-in-law's betrayal of the Reverse Dragon Group was not that simple.
Therefore, he preferred not to draw too much attention from those above to the Reverse Dragon Group.
It might as well be as if it never existed.
It's not that Su Chen was planning to act unjustly.
If he ultimately confirmed that his sister-in-law had indeed betrayed them,
then he would definitely carry out his duties.
"Sister-in-law, please don't betray us..."
Su Chen could forgive anything,
except this matter.
Because the moment he became a member of the Reverse Dragon Group,
the mark of his country's loyal soul was imprinted on him.
Any Rebels must be shown no mercy!
"My identity is not suitable to be exposed for now; is it possible to take on this mission under your name, and then I complete it?" Su Chen thought for a bit and said.
"This... is possible, but, the higher-ups may detect your presence," Liang Bing hesitated.
She also realized that Su Chen seemed reluctant to disclose his identity.
"Don't worry, I have ways to manage," Su Chen said with a light smile.
As he spoke, his stature began to shrink.
In just a few seconds, his body became similar in size to Liang Bing.
Almost copying Liang Bing's figure.
With a wig and mask, it would be hard for anyone to recognize him.
"I'll just need you to lay low for a while," Su Chen returned to his original size.
"No problem at all, as long as I can assist the Commander, Liang Bing would do so without reservation," Liang Bing agreed immediately.
In fact, this was a huge opportunity for her.
She knew just how difficult the indefinite mission was.
The most difficult aspect being the points deduction system.
Earning points for completion, losing points for failure.
If it weren't for this deduction rule, this indefinite mission would have been completed by someone a long time ago.
But because of the deduction rule, nobody has completed the task, which has existed for a long time.
However, if one were to complete this indefinite mission, exchanging for Titan Arum is just one aspect.
The benefits that it would bring to Liang Bing would be even more substantial.
Because, while the points will be deducted after the exchange,
the total number of points earned wouldn't decrease.
And for a Dragon Group Soldier, these points are very significant.
They serve as a representation of a Dragon Group Soldier's achievements.
Typically, an average Dragon Group Soldier might accumulate a lifetime total of around one hundred thousand points.
Captain Level would need about twenty years.
This shows just how difficult it is to complete the indefinite mission.
To date, Liang Bing has served five years and seven months, with a total score of just over twenty thousand points.
If she continues to accumulate at this speed,
it would take twenty-five years to potentially reach one hundred thousand points.
If Su Chen were to complete this task for her, she would directly obtain one hundred thousand points.
This would be an unparalleled honor.
Of course, Liang Bing wants the one hundred thousand points not just for the honor.
After all, even if she received the honors, she knows that those don't truly belong to her.
She wants the one hundred thousand points because…
