Capítulo 30: Chapter 30: Hope of Rescue

Bi Fang lifted his sore left arm, supporting the backpack while swimming across the river with his right hand, and quickly reached the opposite bank.

Just as he climbed ashore, the electronic voice rang out.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the task, you have received a Skill Advancement Ticket*1]

[The System prompts the host that if the novice task is completed, a reward upgrade opportunity can be obtained. Would you like to claim your side quest reward now?]

A task completed? Reward upgrade?

Bi Fang was startled by the two prompts. He could understand completing the task—crossing the river must have eliminated his scent, temporarily evading the black bear's pursuit, and thus completing "Snatching Food from a Bear's Mouth".

But what was a reward upgrade?

To this, the System replied: a reward upgrade is a unique reward for novice tasks, and upon consolidated upgrade, makes the original reward better.
