[Plot Progression: 7%]
Looking at this message, a terribly disheveled Dick's expression changed.
The highest difficulty instance this time only required surviving until daybreak, so something called the plot progression had been introduced.
The higher the plot progression, the better the reward obtained.
But with a plot progression of only seven percent, it was as if Dick hadn't advanced the story at all. He knew nothing and naturally had no rewards to show for it.
This conflicted with the high-IQ persona Dick had always maintained and would undoubtedly damage his reputation.
However, it wasn't really a big deal, Dick thought, since he had already cleared the instance, and it was the highest difficulty after all. It's not like there was anyone else in the whole world who had managed to clear it.
However, when Dick returned to Blue Star, he expected, as usual, to be greeted by a crowd cheering for his victorious return.
