Chapter 8 The Correct Way to Obtain Prestige Points
By a small river far from the crime scene, Li Jie opened the two leather belts he had obtained from the gangsters. A kraft paper bag contains a lot of hay. Li Jie didn't have any interest in this kind of thing. He put two stones in the bag, and then threw them directly into the river, letting it sink to the bottom of the river.
The other bag contained a pile of green dollar bills. It's all ten dollar bills in small denominations, rolled into a roll of every hundred. Because most Americans do not use large amounts of cash, but most gang transactions are money and goods. Therefore, a large amount of US dollars of one hundred yuan is not very popular in gang transactions, unless it is a big gang with perfect money laundering channels. Ordinary gangs prefer smaller denominations, which are less likely to be discovered.
Li Jie counted and found that there were 20 rolls of small US dollars in the kraft paper bag, so it was 20,000 US dollars. Li Jie took out two rolls of U.S. dollars from the bag and put them in his pocket. He happened to be driving a dining car during the summer vacation and needed to prepare some more liquidity.
For the other 18,000 US dollars, Li Jie was not ready to move. As mentioned earlier, using a large amount of cash in the United States is very troublesome, and transactions with large amounts of cash will always attract the attention of the police. Li Jie didn't want to cause this trouble, and if such a large amount of money was hidden at home, it would be difficult to guarantee that it would not be discovered. How to explain the origin of the money to his parents was also a problem. So Li Jie is ready to give the money to other people who need it.
The San Diego Orphanage is a non-profit orphanage. All the orphanage's income comes from social donations. The street where Li Jie lives has also organized donations to the San Diego orphanage. And Peter Parker and Li Jie also went to the orphanage as volunteers for a period of time. The head of the orphanage was an old nun named Marion. The orphanage's funds were stretched thin, so she sold her property to ensure the normal operation of the orphanage. The old nun was poor all her life and gave all her efforts to those homeless orphans. Li Jie admired the old nun very much, so he put the rest of the kraft paper sheet containing 18,000 dollars on the second floor of the orphanage, on the terrace outside Sister Marion's office. He also wrote a line with his left hand twisted: Dedicated to the esteemed Sister Marion, please use this gift for those who need it.
Li Jie opened his task system to see the completion of his current task.

Completing the daily tasks of novice heroes can get rewards: an E-level hero training card and a random E-level item.
The last time Li Jie stopped the bald man, he only gained 5 reputation points. Today, he gained 30 reputation points when he stopped the hay trade between gangs. It is true that he has more reputation for preventing vicious crimes. Moreover, Li Jie also discovered that he had only stopped the robbery of the bald man, so he only completed one task of preventing the crime from happening. But today's task of preventing hacao trading has not only completed the prevention of vicious crimes, but also overlapped with the prevention of ordinary crimes.
It means that only one crime was stopped, but two tasks were completed. That being said, today's harvest is still very good!
After browsing his task status, Li Jie returned home to sleep. Fortunately, his family did not find that Li Jie had gone out at night. Li Jie didn't return home until after three o'clock in the morning. After three hours of sleep, he felt in good spirits. It must be said that the benefits of internal energy are not small.
"There was a fierce shootout in the sixth block of Queens in the early hours of yesterday. The two sides in the shootout were local gangs. The shootout killed six gang members at the scene. The police preliminarily deduced that the fire was caused by black people eating black people inside the gang." Li Jie side Eating breakfast while watching the morning news on Fox News New York. What I did last night really made the news.
"A strange thing happened this morning at an orphanage in San Diego. Sister Marion found a kraft paper bag on the windowsill outside her office in the morning. The paper bag contained $18,000 in cash. The words "Please use this gift for those in need." Sister Marion of San Diego is the Director of the San Diego Orphanage and is well respected in the community for her life-long dedication to helping orphans. It is speculated that the money was donated by an unknown good-hearted person to help the orphanage get through the difficulties, please see the report sent by the reporter at the scene."
Li Jie finished his breakfast sandwich in two bites. "I didn't expect that even the donation of money would be on TV. Sure enough, all journalists run fast." Li Jie thought. [The host's prestige reaches 100 in order to complete a novice hero task and unlock the prestige growth system. 】
The indifferent voice of the system suddenly came from Li Jie's ear, almost choking Li Jie who was drinking water. I checked it when I finished the quest yesterday, but my reputation has only reached 35 points. There is still a long way to go before the 100 reputation required by the mission. Why did it go up in one night? Li Jie suddenly looked at the TV with a flash of inspiration. Could it be because of the news?
The more Li Jie thinks about it, the more likely it is. What is prestige? Naturally, more people who know you know what you do. This is called prestige. Although Li Jie's appearance did not appear on TV, what Li Jie did made news today. Fox News New York in the New York area is a news station for the greater New York area. Although the coverage and audience are limited to the New York area, how many citizens are there in New York? That's more than 20 million people, and how many people watch Fox New York in the morning? There are at least tens of thousands!
If this is the case, Li Jie feels that this reputation value is actually given back less. After all, more than 100,000 people knew about these two things, and only pushed the reputation value to 100. Li Jie opened his quest system and saw that his reputation had risen to 160 points. And the first of the daily tasks of the novice hero has also been completed.
Daily tasks for novice heroes: 1. Gain 100 reputation points (160 points have been obtained, and the completion of the task will unlock the reputation growth system.) [Reputation is the cornerstone of a hero's growth, the higher the reputation, the faster the growth. 】
2. Prevent ten crimes from happening. (Completed 2) [Heroes should hoe the strong and help the weak, it's time to put your red underwear on the outside! Prestige for preventing crime from happening. 】
3. Prevent three vicious crimes from happening. (Completed 1) [Criminal! Vicious crime! Murder ~ Sexual Assault ~ Kidnap Children! Please stop these crimes from happening! Get a lot of prestige! 】
Completing the daily tasks of novice heroes can get rewards: an E-level hero training card and a random E-level item.
Li Jie is now very curious about what this reputation growth system is, and immediately clicks on the new reputation growth system. After careful browsing, Li Jie found that this prestige growth system was exactly what he needed urgently.
Li Jie has a detailed understanding of the usefulness of the reputation growth system. There are actually two uses of this system. One is to buy and one is to upgrade. The so-called purchase refers to using the gained reputation to buy skills and items corresponding to the hero's level. For example, if Li Jie is currently rated as an E-level hero, then he can rely on the prestige obtained to purchase E-level skills and E-level items corresponding to E-level heroes in the system. The higher the hero's rating, the better the skills and items that can be purchased, and of course better skills mean higher prestige costs.
The upgrade is as the name suggests, you can rely on the gained reputation to upgrade the skills of the hero. Because the skills purchased by heroes relying on system prestige are entry-level in the initial state, it can basically be said that they have little power. If you want to master a skill proficiently, you need a lot of training, and relying on prestige, you can use prestige to improve the proficiency and power of skill mastery. Taking Li Jie as an example, the skill he has now is the primary internal skill "Tengjiao Gong" with an E-level evaluation.
If the entry-level "Tengjiao Gong" wants to upgrade to Xiaocheng, then 10 reputation points are required. 100 Reputation is required to upgrade to Mastery, 500 Reputation to Mastery, and 1000 Reputation to upgrade to Top Accomplished.
No wonder the system specifically stated in the mission introduction that prestige is the cornerstone of a hero's growth, so that's the truth! Li Jie finally understood now. Li Jie opened the reputation system to see what skills and items can be exchanged. Because Li Jie's rating is only E level, only a small part of the skills can be unlocked. Most of the skills and items are in a gray and non-exchangeable state, which requires Li Jie to improve his hero rating before unlocking.
Now Li Jie's reputation is only 160 points, which is really not much. You have to use it sparingly and spend your money on the edge. Li Jie originally thought about whether to upgrade "Tengjiao Gong" to the proficient level, which would cost 100 reputation points. But after thinking about it, I still feel that this is not urgent, as can be seen from the previous two battles. Ordinary people have almost no resistance to attacks that contain internal power, and even if they improve immediately, it will not help the current task.
And in case of encountering a guy with supernatural abilities, it is estimated that relying on the proficient level of "Tengjiao Gong" is not enough to watch. Li Jie thought about it carefully, he was so tired from running yesterday, and he almost died under the shooting of the pistol. What I need most at the moment is to improve my body speed or reaction skills. At least you can run when you can't beat it.
Li Jie began to look for skills to increase speed. In the process of searching, Li Jie found that there are still restrictions on the use of different skills. For example, the water-controlling step and the wind-treading step of the power system are both E-level movement skills, but the premise of using this skill is to have the X gene in the body. That is, the skills of mutant heroes.
And high-speed skateboards and low-altitude aircraft drawings are things that clearly belong to tech heroes.
The current Li Jie does not have the X gene, and it is impossible to learn how to make high-tech equipment. As for whether he will be able to acquire the abilities of mutant heroes or find the ability to manufacture high-tech equipment in the future, Li Jie still does not know.
Now that Li Jie's hero attribute is internal strength, the scope of the search is narrowed, and he can only choose skills that match his internal strength. Li Jie finally chose the skill "Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada" through careful selection. The advantage of this skill is that it can drive the circulation of internal qi during long-distance running, allowing people to run faster and longer. And in a short distance, it can burst into an extremely powerful explosive force, which can instantly approach the opponent. This is not a skill based on dexterous dodge, but it suits Li Jie's taste very well, and it is also the best skill that can be exchanged for the few reputations.
Li Jie spent 100 reputation points to exchange the E-level skill "Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada", and then spent 10 reputation points to upgrade this skill to the status of Xiaocheng. After that, he gritted his teeth and spent 50 reputation points to buy a battle belt. The only use of this belt is to have a space of 0.5 cubic meters. Li Jie can put his short stick, the gun he got last night, and two thousand dollars. go in.
And this belt replaced the very wide black belt that came with the original hero suit. Compared with the original wide exaggerated black belt, this battle belt purchased for 50 reputation points looks more handsome a lot of.
Although it is still early in the morning, Li Jie is already looking forward to the coming of night!
