Even without Kevin’s reminder, Steel Teeth knew that the group they were facing wouldn’t be easy to deal with.

Two consecutive battles in one day, and two consecutive losses. It took out nearly forty of his men, a quarter of his ammunition, and a light pickup truck.

If they didn’t retreat, probably even the rest of the people would’ve died!

Just when Steel Teeth took the remnant force to escape the northern suburbs of Clearspring City at dusk, the players who just went offline were still discussing the Medal System introduced by the soft update.

In fact, the setting of medals had also existed before. After each battle was completed, the outstanding team or individual could get one.

However, that kind of medal did not have a physical entity, and the display on the website’s personal page was just a number, not even a pattern.

Having specific medal styles, and also physical medals in the game like what was introduced in the update was actually a first time event in Wasteland Online!

It was the proof of victory in an epic battle after all. It was much better than those paid skins in other games.

At this time, many players were surprised to find that the medals they had received before were all upgraded to a gear-shaped icon after the server announcement.

A closer look showed that the total number of teeth on the inner and outer rings was exactly 404, and after selecting the medal, there would be a line of description.

[This is where we begin!]

The medal system had been overhauled. However, basic medals only seemed to have added patterns and a collection value, and a version number attached. There was still no physical entity, and it was only an electronic version. The change seemed to be just to distinguish it from the special medals.

But even so, for the vast majority of Combat Profession players, it could be regarded as a pleasant surprise.

What if the game company changed their mind in the future? For example, adding an in-game physical medal to a previously issued medal, or unlocking a hidden achievement when the number of medals was reached.

It was not impossible!

Spring Water Commander: I got it! The Gear medal of the normal campaign is the most basic medal, so there is only an electronic version and not a physical one!

Battlefield Cheerleader: Additionally, the condition for unlocking the Shield medal is to obtain the final victory in the defense mission of epic difficulty!

Quit Smoking: Wait, that is to say, there are similar achievements in attacking, supporting, or raiding missions? (Surprise)

Athlete Foot: I’m going to take a blind guess. Since there are silver medals, there should be bronze medals, gold medals, and diamond medals…

Bathroom Goer: Let’s have master and grandmaster medals, or we will not get used to it.

Eye Owe Money: Do you think there will be a military rank system in the future? (Smiling)

Escaping Mole: This is unlikely. It’s possible if there are many people, but it doesn’t seem necessary if there are only a few players. Besides, there is already an identity system. Creating a separate military rank system for the soldier profession will make many players want to take up the soldier profession. But, it is still recommended that the developers can add a command skill to the skill proficiency, so that its level can be increased like shooting and fighting. In this way, it’s easier to find people who are good at leading a team. Otherwise, once there are more players in the future, those newbies who don’t know how to command would take up the leader and lead players to their deaths or god knows where. (Sighs) ℟

Irene: I suspect you’re trying to insinuate that brother Pubg is trash... ( ͡

Midnight Pubg: (Surprised_pikachu_face.jpg)

Construction Boy: Hahaha, it makes sense. People like me who don’t like responsibilities don’t like to lead a team at all. It is much easier to follow other people’s orders. So those people who often lead a team should indeed be given some rewards. But then again, it shouldn’t be too much. Otherwise, it will affect the balance.

Night Ten: Devs: Yes, yes, you are right. I’ll copy your idea now. ( ͡

...

That night, after the offline peak.

𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

After returning to the shelter, Chu Guang glanced at the discussion thread about medals in the forum.

When he reached the first reply of Night Ten, Chu Guang laughed.

Copy?

So short-sighted!

Shouldn’t players be grateful when developers hear their voices? If I don’t read a single post, you guys would still be using the contribution points as money!

A large part of the contribution points and regional prestige actually came from military merit, so it is indeed inappropriate to set an additional military rank. Chu Guang stroked his chin and said after thinking for a long time.

...However, the proficiency of command skills really needs to be added.

After copying and pasting Escaping Mole’s post into the document, Chu Guang added a line of remarks.

[Change:

Skill Proficiency added Command. The command skill proficiency obtained by the player in the game will be calculated based on the battle difficulty level, scale, casualties, and War Score.

]

Soon, he would ask Little Seven to help design a calculation formula, which could be considered to enrich the team leader’s gaming experience.

After all, as many players said in the forum, leading a team was a very troublesome thing. If everything went well, it would be to everyone’s credit. But if someone went wrong, it would always be the team leader’s fault.

The proficiency of the command skill would be able to intuitively reflect a player’s organizational ability.

When a good leader organized a team, other players would rush to join in; whereas a bad team leader would often end up not having enough people, and eventually be automatically eliminated by the system. Moreover, after the shit leader was gone, a new team leader would be selected by votes.

In the future, players with a high command skill level and multiple medals would become the resources that the big guild competed for, or they would be the guild leaders themselves.

That would also be a hidden benefit for those players.

After reading the suggestion posts, Chu Guang turned to the fandom section of the forum, intending to see how everyone was doing with the open tender he put out for the design of the medals.

What surprised him was that many people had already sent in their designs!

"How did they all submit their designs so fast?" Chu Guang was curious. But when he clicked on a post and saw the content inside, he almost spat at them.

The genius poster simply just put Chu Guang’s face on the silver coin!

They didn’t put a portrait from the side either, but one that was taken from the very front!

Actually, he couldn’t help but to admit that the portrait of him was quite good, which actually increased the value of silver coins by a lot.

On the other hand, because of the uncanny similarity, Chu Guang even felt that people would not have a problem finding him if they saw the coin.

"My goodness, does this guy want to get me killed?" Being too showy in the wasteland was not a good thing. After all, there were far more lunatics than normal people in this world.

Good portrait!

But be a little bit smarter next time…

Chu Guang thought to himself that maybe when the Federation of People was revived and the wasteland era ended, it would be fine for him to come back and claim the credit. As for now, it was better to stay low-key.

In addition to the drawing of his head, there were some strange designs. Some people drew Xiaoyu, and some drew Yaya and Teng Teng... Well, those were the more normal submissions. In terms of those abnormal submissions, Chu Guang almost wanted to lock their posts and ban their accounts.

After browsing around, Chu Guang found that the most reliable person was actually Escaping Mole.

Since the dude was banned from speaking the previous time, he has thoroughly repented his misdeeds and stopped drawing ero Doujin. Instead, he started to draw some seriously meaningful stuff of high quality and great depth; such as the silver coins.

In his design, the silver coin had an artistic "N" on the front that looked the same as the number "1" in the game.

On the back were the claws of a Crackleclaw Crab, which outlined an "F" around the edge of the coin, and the neat rows of lines looked like a forked olive branch.

The edge of the coin was designed with anti-counterfeiting teeth, with 202 thick teeth and 202 thin teeth, adding up to 404 teeth. The spacing was very small, which increased the difficulty of counterfeiting.

Since a silver coin weighed 10 grams, 100 silver coins were equivalent to 1 kilogram. Even if someone copied the material, craftsmanship, and successfully counterfeited silver coins, they would be quickly discovered when they were in circulation.

The guards would check the silver coins carried by everyone who entered the survivor’s settlement, and the follow-up market would also increase inspections and other supervisors. Therefore, it was almost impossible to bring a large number of counterfeit silver coins into the survivor’s settlement under Shelter 404.

"404, Not Found, River Crab[1]… Not bad." Chu Guang’s eyes lit up after reading the post, and he immediately marked the post.

The overall design was atmospheric and beautiful, the elements were complete but not complicated, and there was a certain threshold for manufacturing.

If he didn’t find a better design when he woke up the next day, he would use the mole’s design.

...

The next morning.

The players of Shelter 404 poured out of the nursing home one after another in the early morning sun.

Almost as soon as the first players reached the surface, everyone on the server received a notification.

[Server announcement:

Congratulations to player, Escaping Mole, for having his second-generation currency design plan adopted by the official bank of Shelter 404!

]

[Because the player chose to announce the achievement, this achievement will be recorded in the Hall of Fame]

When the players who were standing in the square saw the notifications, a sense of envy filled their hearts in an instant.

"Damn it! This isn’t fair!"

"That’s right! It’s too shady! I even drew the administrator’s portrait, but it didn’t pass!"

"Damn it, I let a stinky rodent win Xiaoyu’s mysterious gift!"

The real rat. Make Me, who just came out of the nursing home, raised his head in confusion when he heard people scolding a rat.

"Huh? Are you talking about me?"

Shit Names Left yelled, "We aren’t talking about you! We are talking about the mole!"

"???"

Unable to bear it anymore, Escaping Mole finally shouted, "Hey! Screw you all! Do you all even have a bit of conscience? I have covered all the elements in my design plan, so why would my design not be selected?"

Failed Successfully snorted at the side, "I don’t care! As long as my design wasn’t selected, there must be something shady going on behind the scenes!"

"@#%!"

...

1. River crab is the homonym of the word "Censorship",

404, not found, and River Crabs are the words Chinese netizens used to talk about censorship. ☜
