Chapter 720. Scores Tallying
It seemed that the voice was waiting for Jack before it informed everyone of the scores. Words appeared in the air before them, informing their scores.

The voice then informed everyone that they received 300,000 bonus exp points for every one thousand scores and 200 mana cores for every five thousand scores. Jack received a whooping 14,400,000 exp points and 1,800 mana cores.
If combined with Domon, Jeanny, and Giant Steve's, in this one run alone, the four of them had received a total of 4,600 mana cores! Jeanny was very happy about this. She was seriously lacking in mana cores to utilize the divine treasure within her. Jack, Domon, and Giant Steve all gave Jeanny the mana cores they had gotten from this ancient battleground run.
Combined with the exp points they received inside the battleground, everyone except Mihos leveled up. Jack had all his three classes leveled up. His Blade Dancer went up by a level to 44, Archmage also by a level to 43, while Beastmaster leveled up twice to level 43. His pet Therras only received the exp points during the killing inside the battleground, but it also leveled up by one level to 43.
For other players, many of them leveled up twice. Those that did are now level 48. They were officially the highest level now, even higher than the highest level player in the tournament, Spring Crown, who was still level 47 when he left earlier today.
Jet only leveled up once since his scores were the lowest among the players. He was regretting now that he didn't focus on destroying more supply carts before engaging the enemy soldiers. With his mana manipulation, he should be able to break as many carts as Domon.
Every one of them was wondering if they could do another run of this ancient battleground again. Heck, if it's possible, they wanted to continue staying here and do this simulation daily. But they then remembered Callan's words before they entered. This was a one-time offer, except for Paytowin.
"You are very lucky you can enter this ancient battleground again," Jack said to Paytowin, who replied back, "I've said it before, right? Without you people, this simulation is useless to me. Even if I know the secret way to gather points, I can't get through the minimum requirement by myself. The natives here never let me join them in their run."
"Well, how about you ask him?" Jack said as he pointed to Mihos, who was approaching the holographic words that displayed their scores. Mihos used his finger to click on Jack's scores. Several more words appeared from Jack's scores, it was the breakdown of his score gathering.
<br/>Out of his 48,570 scores, 30,000 came from destroying the supply carts, 3000 scores for each cart. 15,000 scores for successfully hitting the Herald of Greed once. The rests were from killing the black-armored soldiers. Everyone was astonished, just hitting that commander once already netted 15,000 scores? What if they hit him more than once? Would he grant 15,000 scores every hit?
While everyone marveled at Jack's scores breakdown, Jack wondered why Mihos checked his scores. Was this native champion bitter that his scores were the lowest? But that was because he didn't destroy any supply carts. To be able to get such a high score simply by killing enemy soldiers was itself a very impressive act already. Jack couldn't imagine the body count Mihos had amassed to reach that score. It would be massive.
After studying Jack's score, Mihos came to Jack. "You truly hit the Herald of Greed. You have the guts to attempt the impossible and even the means to pull it off, I'm impressed," He said. "Do you already have a companion?"
It took Jack a few seconds before the question seeped in. "Uha?| Yes, I have a companion," Jack answered.
"Hm, it's a pity. All right then," Mihos said.
Giant Steve, who heard the conversation, uttered, "Uh, sir, I don't have a companion yet."
Mihos acted as if he didn't hear anything.
'Wow, did you just reject a companion offer from a Mythical-grade native? A champion from Council of Virtus nonetheless,' Peniel said to Jack inside his mind.
'I did?' Jack said. The realization just seeped in. But then again, he couldn't just let go of Arlcard just because he found a better candidate. What kind of partner would people see him as. Arlcard would be offended. Jack decided that he had made the right choice by rejecting the offer, even when he didn't do it purposely.
The reward selection list now appeared, showing everyone what items they could exchange their scores for. The voice also reminded everyone that these scores would not be saved. If they exited this place without exchanging the scores, then the scores would become null and void.
Jack looked at the list and was surprised to find more selection than the last time. He scrolled to the top part of the list and was stunned when he saw the top part items.
"Lea??Legendarya?|?" Jack uttered. The others were similarly shocked when they saw the list.
In the selection that Jack had scrolled up was the seven-piece Divine set Armor of Valor, which were all legendary grades. There was also a Divine Sword of Valor, which was also of the Legendary grade. However, the scores needed also shocked them, the sword itself required 150,000 scores. While each piece of the divine set armor required 120,000 scores.
"Can we combine scores for an exchange?" Jack exclaimed, to no one in particular. He was hoping the voice that had given them the notification would answer.
It was Mihos instead who answered, "No, you can't. Each participant has his or her own score and can only exchange that individual score. You can't merge your score with another participant."
"Then how can one possibly reach such a score? These scores are impossible!" Jack uttered.
"Well, probably if you kill that eternal-grade commander, you can get enough scores?" Paytowin offered his opinion.
Jack gave him a side-eye. 'Is that even a possibility to be discussed?' His eyes said.
"I understand your consternation. To be honest, this is also the first time I lay my eyes on this legendary-grade selection," Mihos informed.
"You've never seen them on this list before?" Jack asked.
"The selection is exposed based on the total scores from all the participants," Mihos explained. "For example, if only one person gained 50,000 scores while the others have zero scores, you will only find a list that contains super rare grade goods. So, even if you have lots of scores, you can only exchange them for meager goods."
In his mind, Jack thought, 'super rare grades are considered meager goods?'
Mihos continued, "We find the legendary grades here because the total scores that everyone received are enough to open the top list. I must say the total that everyone achieved here is higher than any of my previous runs. In my previous runs with my native comrades, we have only managed to open the selection till the unique grades."
Jack nodded. He then scrolled back down, looking at goods that they couldn't get will just cause depression. Better focus on the ones that they could get. He browsed the wares that were below 50,000 scores.
While doing that, he explained to the others and suggested they get the Universal Technique Book. He described to them the book's usage. Since it only needed 5,000 scores, everyone could get them. While explaining, he also sent a silent message to Jeanny to keep one book so that she can copy it for the other guild core members.
Jeanny sent an ok reply. Jack was secretly celebrating. This meant he could now use the book in his possession. Peniel had seen the messages and understood Jack's smile, she rolled her eyes at him.
Jack was looking at goods that needed around 40,000 scores, many of which were unique grades. After doing some thinking, he scrolled back down. He asked Peniel after arriving at the item he was looking for, "You have no sure way to get this item, right?"
"No," Peniel replied.
"Okay. Let's get this item first then," Jack said and interfaced with the selection, he paid 15,000 scores.
"Divine gem?" Jeanny uttered after seeing the item Jack exchanged.
"Yeah," The divine gem appeared in Jack's hand. Its luminance was indeed brilliant. Jack could sense incredible mana from that small gem. It somehow also made his feeling calm and his mind clear. This item was indeed not simple.
After admiring the divine gem in his hand for a while, Jack gave it to Jeanny. "You know what to do," he said to her.
The others who were not originally from their guild were confused as to why Jack gave the item he had exchanged to Jeanny. Red Death and Grace were particularly curious as to why Jack gave a beautiful jewel to a girl.
