Mandatory Side Mission - Reward and Punishment - Chapter 39

At that time, Pandora starts talking.

"It is a mission given to them."

Alan could not help but ask.

"Explain it to me, Pandora."

Pandora then starts talking even more.

"As contestants, they are not only given missions but also side-missions in the game."

Some of these side missions are similar to your execution and hunting missions.

These kinds of side missions must be completed at all costs, or they will perish."

"Some of them are not, but those side missions are rare."

Alan took a deep breath again and then asked.

"Why am I not given a mission like this?"

Pandora answers again in a clear, mechanical voice.

"The user will always be assigned the mission of execution, which functions as a mandatory side-mission, excluding the user from the side missions of the ordinary contestants with a twist."

Alan smiles this time after learning that he will not be given difficult side missions, the punishment for which is death.

"What is the twist?"

Alan asks, wondering what kind of twists exist that he does not know.

"The twist is that users are still able to complete these missions and take the reward for them, but they don't need to complete these missions."

The mission for contestants is given below.

"The Mandatory Side Mission"

"Kill Three-Headed Zombie King," located in "City Center,"

"Reward"

"Every individual who damages the Three-Headed Zombie King to some degree will be rewarded one Pandora point and 50 Pandora credits."

"The one who kills it and deals the last damage that kills the creature for real will be given two Pandora Points and 100 Pandora Credit."

"Punishment"

"If the Three-Headed Zombie King is not killed until the end of the mission, all the people to whom that mission is given will be executed."

"For you, user Alan, the punishment does not exist. For you, the mission is optional; you can help others or just go on your way."

This time, Alan understands Pandora's words completely and without hesitation.

"This is awesome and important, not to mention the mission rewards are too good to be passed."

As he thought about these things, a ding resounded in his head.

"The final execution target on the map."

The map opens, and Alan can see the target he needs to kill to complete the execution mission.

Alan comments as he sees the target.

"It appears that the target is on his way here; it appears that he, like others, is too preoccupied with the mandatory side mission."

"I can use the crowd and the Zombie King to kill him, and then complete the side mission to gain more than three points in one go."

"It's a risky move, but it's worthwhile; three Pandora Points will provide me with more power than I could gain in a short time."

At least, not in this mission.

At that time, Alan notices something.

"Oh, it is going to use its ability."

All the contestants back down, noticing that the right head of the zombie is getting bigger and bigger.

A few seconds later, with huge explosion, the right head of the zombie king explodes, and blood from it lands everywhere in the center.

The amount of blood is not something one can expect.

More than seven contestants dyed in red start screaming and melting down.
