NOVEL WEB Chapter 115: Cyberpunk Dungeon Rewards
<All Objectives Completed: Calculating Rewards>
When I woke up, the world had gone gray. The first thing I did was look at Mira to see if she was frozen or not. She wasn't. She was waking up the same time as me looking around at the gray frozen world.
"What's going on, Dylan?" She said.
"I completed all the objectives of the dungeon, so it's over. Now it's time to collect my rewards and for us to get out of here," I said.
"Ok. Do I get any rewards?" She said.
"I don't think so. You were an NPC in this dungeon so I don't think you will, but if you completed a different dungeon you would," I said, patting her on the head.
"Ok," she said with a disappointed look on her face.
Three chests appeared before me. They looked very sci fi. I turned the key in the lock of all of them and pressed the button on the first one. The top slid back, revealing crisp hundred dollar bills.
<20 million dollars from Gino's safe>
<275 million dollars from Mira's inheritance of the Calabrese Crime Family>
<5 million dollars from winning the Battle Derby Race>
<200 million dollars for giving Mira the day of her life and for giving her the life she never would have had the opportunity to have without you>
<500 million dollars total reward>
"Midas, vacuum," I said.
Midas vacuumed up all the money. Now not only did I have roughly 1.4 billion dollars in gold giblets, I also had 500 million dollars. The 500 million dollars I wouldn't have to convert into currency for use in the human world, because it already was currency for use in the human world.
I was set for any small and medium level expenses I might have indefinitely. Large scale expenses like erecting an entire city in my name were still out of reach, but I was doing well in personal finances for an individual.
The next goal was to be doing well in finances for a faction. I was hoping to scale us up not only in finances but also in Tier according to the Faction tab in my system.
Higher tiers not only required greater finances, but they also required greater numbers in terms of personnel. And we were reaching Tier 2 in terms of personnel, but Tier 5 or higher in terms of finances.
I had to figure out a way to increase our personnel without crowding our entourage too much. Maybe I would install roving gangs of adventurers or something. That would require resources I didn't have access to like more dungeon keys, but I had a feeling whatever I needed was right over the horizon.
I moved on to the next smaller chest. There was one more chest after that that was even smaller, but I would save that for last. I had already unlocked all the chests. Now all I had to do was open them.
I pressed the button on the medium chest. Inside was a square box looking thing with hinges on the edges and a bunch of different constructional sections that made it look like it could either get larger or open up and change shape.
'System. What is it?'
[Universal Replicator of Equivalent Exchange: Allows the user to replicate any object of equal or lesser value to what is placed in it in exchange. It contains one chamber for the item you wish to replicate and another for the equivalent item you want to exchange]
Holy shit! That was powerful! This must have been an ultra rare item. I wish I knew what the exact rarity of the item was but even without being told, I knew it was incredibly valuable. That must have been a result of choosing and completing the Hell difficulty mode.
[Item rarity: Otherworldly]
Interesting name for a rarity. It fairly succinctly summed up the value of the item though so I couldn't knock the name.
With this item, I could replicate the dungeon key and the portal compass to make it so other people could complete the dungeons for me, without me having to be there to unlock the settings.
I wish there was something similar to my system that could translate the dimensional messages of the dungeons so that others could understand and interpret the objectives.
Next, I moved onto the last chest. It was rather small. About the size of a lockbox. I pressed the button on it and it opened. Held within it was a high tech looking pair of glasses.
'System. Analyze it.'
[Dungeon Glasses: Allows the user to interpret dungeons' dimensional messages, receive objectives, and interface with the dungeon control panels]
[Item Rarity: Legendary]
Nice! This is exactly what I needed as well. Nearly every reward I've received from dungeons has been incredibly useful and this was no different. It was almost like there was a cosmic being intentionally picking the dungeon rewards just for me. Which in all likelihood, there was.
"Hey Mira, so some of my rewards should actually go to you. You inherited 275 million dollars from the Calabrese Family and you won 5 million from the Battle Derby race," I said.
"You keep it. Just give it out to me as I need it. There's something so incredibly hot about you controlling my money and giving me an allowance of it every so often. It gets me wet," she said, winking.
"Oh, ok then. I can't argue with that," I said.
I put everything in Midas's mouth, locked the dungeon instance, grabbed Mira's hand and walked through the portal back into the Dragon Sect territories.
Your journey continues with empire
When we got back, everyone else who had gone into a dungeon was waiting for me. Victoria came up to me and Mira.
"Who's this?" She said, gesturing to Mira. "A new friend? A new Dylan friend?" She winked at me.
"Yes, this is a new Dylan friend. Her name is Mira Calabrese. She was the daughter of Johnny Calabrese the fourth in the future in the dungeon's scenario," I said.
"Oh, that's great news! I love all these new friends you're getting Dylan. You're such a ladies man," Victoria said. "I love it. It's sexy."
"Thanks, Victoria," I said as I kissed her on the mouth in front of Mira. Mira didn't even bat an eye. As long as it was all consensual, she couldn't care less if I had multiple partners. Just as long as there were no slaves involved.
Maven rushed up to me and said, "Florick contacted me. He wants to formally challenge you to a duel."
"Oh, shit," I said. Yikes.
