Chapter 592: Quasi-Boss Chip Ownership

“Boom!”

The searing hot bullet scratched the Scout player’s palm and struck the ground and burst into a ball of flames.

“F*ck! What the f*ck do you mean by this? You’re actually attacking me?” The Scout player’s hand was engulfed in the flame. However, he still managed to grab a hold of the chip.

He stood up and turned around to look behind him at Feng Luo, who was holding Wings of Death less than ten meters behind him.

“You know full well what I mean.” Feng Luo was expressionless as he stared at this random Scout player who previously cursed at him without reservation, even after receiving help and being saved after falling into the water when they were disembarking, as well as the biochip the Scout held in his hand.

While pet biochips had different grades, as dropped loot, all of them emanated a white glow and visually speaking, there was not much difference. As such, all 20 plus chips in the area seemed pretty much the same.

Since a huge battle involving multiple skills and attacks engulfed the area just a few minutes ago, the area had become unrecognizable. Normal people would not have been able to remember where the chip dropped by the Quasi-Boss when it fell.

However, Feng Luo’s laser-sharp attention and gaze never left this area.

With his incredibly active mind that far surpassed normal human beings, he knew what the Scout player was holding.

“Drop the Quasi-Boss’ chip.” Feng Luo said coldly while he aimed the muzzle of Wings of Death at the Scout player.

“Quasi-Boss chip?” At that time, most of the other players had wiped out the last remaining Hypertoxic Chameleons.

Although they had not yet swept the battlefield, many players had started walking over to that location, their intentions were obviously the same as Feng Luo and the Scout.

To players who did not lack equipment, the items dropped by the normal Hypertoxic Chameleons were meaningless. Most of the players were more concerned about the chip dropped by the Quasi-Boss.

After hearing Feng Luo’s words, their gaze shifted to the hand of the Scout player. Everyone had a different expression on their faces.

Some frowned while others remained expressionless. However, most of them were looking at the two of them with excitement.

“Mr. Gold, with regards to item distribution, I believe we’ve already discussed it when we were signing the contract before the mission. The chip dropped by Quasi-Bosses should be distributed according to kill contribution. The player with the highest contribution takes ownership. For you to pick it up like this, don’t you think it is inappropriate?” As the organizer, Zi Wei walked over and spoke to the Scout player with a frown.

For most players taking part in this exploration expedition, whether it was a Commander Grade chip or a Rare Grade item, they were not really interested in them.

However, a Quasi-Boss chip was different.

The players taking part in the expedition mostly came for these Quasi-Boss chips. One could even say that Quasi-Boss chips were the sole focus of the expedition. No one would simply just resign and leave it to others.

Additionally, Quasi-Boss monsters were strong, over a dozen players were needed to kill one. It was natural for there to be disagreements and arguments when it came to item ownership.

Initially, based on normal item distribution methods, valuable items would be sold to one of the party members or brought to the auction house in town by one of the team members. The credits obtained from the sale would be distributed based on the contribution percentage.

However, there was a problem with this distribution method. This meant that the guilds that were financially weaker or the more average small-to-medium size guilds would have close to zero chance to obtain these chips.

If they were to really follow this distribution method, those players would have no chance of beating organizations like the top ten guilds which had large financial conglomerates supporting them. In such cases, why would they risk dropping their levels to take part in the expedition?

The expedition also included competition – people from North City. This meant that there was a 50% chance for them to get nothing. That was in addition to the experience points, items, levels, and even fame that they may lose in the process.

Compared to the normal distribution method, Nine-Star Guild included a clause in the digital contract, stating that the Quasi-Boss chip would belong solely to the player with the highest Kill Contribution. This clause was acknowledged and accepted by most of the players.

Apart from allowing the players with weaker financial capabilities the chance to obtain Quasi-Boss chips, this distribution method was also more challenging.

The players present were among the best chosen from the elites of Storm City. They were, without a doubt, very confident in their skills and capabilities, and that they would be able to achieve a decent contribution percentage in battles. If they were lucky enough to achieve a higher kill contribution percentage in the raid against a Boss Grade monster, they would become the owner of a pet biochip of incredible value; they did not need to share it with others.

This distribution method could also help the item owner gain a significant amount of fame.

This expedition garnered the attention of all the players from Storm City. It was not only the players from Storm City, but many players in War were also following this expedition.

The number of chips inside the abandoned ruin was limited. With this sort of distribution method, the player who ultimately obtained the chip would, from a certain point of view, prove that he or she was stronger than the other top players.

Who knows? The Storm City’s top ten expert ranking may have to reshuffle by the time they got back…

For most of these players who were superstar players, this might be more important than the chip itself. This was also one of the reasons they agreed to this type of distribution method.

“Hmph! My kill contribution to this Quasi-Boss is 4.7%…” Seeing the others walking towards him, and with Zi Wei appearing, the Scout player’s face twisted a little.

However, he did not willingly put the Quasi-Boss pet biochip down. He even showed his system log, which stated his kill contribution, to the others.

“4.7%… It’s actually that high?”

“I’ve only got 0.5%…”

After the Scout player displayed his contribution, the expressions on the surrounding players’ face began to change.

While the number did not seem high, it was actually quite decent.

In the process of killing this Quasi-Boss, hundreds of players took part in the attack. In terms of the attack damage output, the average contribution was less than 1%.

Not to mention the fact that War’s Kill Contribution computation method was not only in terms of damage output, there was also Doctors’ healing, the tanking of warriors, and the impact of Scout players.

For example, Jing Kong’s tracing and discovery of the Quasi-Boss using his Legendary Grade recon meter, Frontline Command’s instructions and command, and the Heavy Armor Warriors at the forefront defending against the Chameleon horde that provided the other players the chance to safely release their attacks; these were all considered contributions and had a weight in the final calculation.

As such, on average, many of the players did not reach 0.5% contribution.

The Scout player obtaining a contribution percentage that was near 5% was due to the fact that he was fortunate enough to be very close to the Quasi-Boss when it appeared, and he was the first one to strike it. With that, he gained a decent contribution bonus.

Luck was definitely an important factor. Normally, a 5% contribution was certainly good enough for one to take the Quasi-Boss chip.

As such, after the Scout player displayed his kill contribution, a few of the players who obtained a decent kill contribution percentage immediately had a look of disappointment on their faces.

However, another group of players did not even bother looking at the Scout player. Instead, they stared at Feng Luo.

Since the battlefield was quite chaotic when they were attacking the Quasi-Boss, not everyone noticed Feng Luo’s performance.

In fact, most players were focused on the Boss monster itself. Due to their positions, many did not notice that many of the important shots came from Feng Luo.

As such, they thought that since the Scout player’s kill contribution was high enough that he had a chance at getting the chip, even if he had broken the rule to try to pick it up before they compared their kill contribution, it wasn’t all that serious.

However, a few players who were closer to Feng Luo, particularly the commanding players of Nine-Star Guild and Invikill, who specifically paid attention to Feng Luo, knew that the Quasi-Boss chip did not belong to this Scout player.

Feng Luo’s shot at crucial moments, as well as his final shot that emptied the Quasi-Boss’ HP. This was going to net Feng Luo some bonus contribution points. Additionally, the damage that he achieved from those shots alone would have been enough to go past 5%.

As such, they did not speak. Instead, they simply looked at Feng Luo without paying any heed to the Scout player.

Since the system only showed the kill contribution to the player, these players wanted to know just how high Feng Luo’s kill contribution was.
