My Extraordinary Achievement

Calculated, Meng Fan"s. .h.i.t rate was not high, barely making 50% of the shots even with +2 accuracy, or 60% if he really tried . It wasn"t because the +2 accuracy were wasted, but because Meng Fan was too big of a noob to begin with .

If regular people had an average success rate of 60%, it would still be really hard to achieve 400 points on a basketball arcade . It didn"t account for Meng Fan being a speed player!

His hand speed was at least five times faster than other people . These 400 points were from his low hit rate, and the b.a.l.l.s that bounced out affected the number of times he scored . If these hindrances did not exist and Meng Fan utilized 100% of his hand speed, he could achieve a much higher score, even if his. .h.i.t rate was low!

Next up, Meng Fan had to decrease the occurrences of these hindrances .

As for precision and accuracy, he would gain these attributes once he finished the [G.o.d Tier Pitcher] task . It was more difficult to increase his hand speed, so his best chance was to reduce the number of hindrances . This would also be the most efficient way to increase his experience count .

After gaining another point, Meng Fan intentionally slowed down his scoring speed to find a pattern and rhythm in bouncing off the rim and the spin of the ball . These were the two things that wasted the most time .

A regular rebound was okay, but if it remained in the same spot and bounced for a while, it would heavily affect Meng Fan"s next shot .

Same with the spinning . Each time it spun, it wasted two potential throws . Anymore turns and he would be done .

In comparison, the chances of the ball spinning in the basket were much lower than those of it rebounding .

He felt around, grasping the important principle to allow him to score in the most time-efficient and unhindered manner . It was alright as long as he emptied his mind .

Hehe . Even now, this was still the key to life .

Of course, this scale was something he was used too, and it really could improve his scoring efficiency .

The next three card swipes were all about feeling out the law .

Meng Fan still excelled at maintaining an investigative spirit .

After figuring out the laws, he began to increase his speed . Although the ball still rebounded at the rim and spun, the frequency had decreased . Slowly, he began to accelerate . Meng Fan confirmed that his scoring speed had gone up . It seemed like feeling out the properties and patterns had really helped to increase his accuracy .

After reaching full speed, because he had to avoid the rebounds and the spins, his accuracy dropped a little, only climbing back up again after some familiarization .

After a break, Meng Fan gave it his all . He managed a score of 424 points, which exceeded the high score on the neighboring machine!

“Big brother you"re so good!”

A small boy was watching Meng Fan, and after watching him for a round, he began clapping . Then with partial flattery in his tone, he pointed to the tickets that had streamed out of the machine . “Big brother, do you need these tickets? If not, can I have them?”

Meng Fan had played almost twenty rounds by now, with all the later ones going to the last level . The number of tickets that had come out was not small, only Meng Fan hadn"t noticed them piling up next to him .

These tickets could be used to exchange for gifts at the counter, particularly stuffed animals . There were also anime figurines that required a copious amount of tickets to exchange, only Meng Fan was not attracted to them in the least .

Although he didn"t appreciate the boy"s flattering att.i.tude and smile, Meng Fan still nodded . These tickets weren"t useful to him .

The boy heard this and was overjoyed, gathering all the tickets into his arms . He then bowed to Meng Fan . This surprised Meng Fan .

“Xiao Yang, come here . ”

An eighteen-year-old guy with a sour pink cap was waving at the boy, handing him all the tickets in his hands . The boy happily went to the front desk to deposit his tickets into a card . The sour pink hat guy said to Meng Fan, “This kid is the son of one of the caretakers of the mall . He"s not collecting these tickets for himself, but saving them up to buy toys for kids at the charity house . ”

Meng Fan paused .

The sour pink hat guy shrugged his shoulders and laughed . “At the beginning, I didn"t believe it either, but I got used to it, eventually . He comes every day and more than once on weekends . He comes so often all the staff here knows him . Usually, he just collects all the tickets the customers leave behind and occasionally asks for them . I think it"s because you look kind . ”

“Really?”

Meng Fan smiled awkwardly . He was really embarra.s.sed . He had just been thinking how inappropriate it was for a kid that young to be flattering people, but… It seems he shouldn"t be so quick to label people .

The guy with the sour pink hat shrugged and returned to his game .

He had come to explain the situation to Meng Fan out of fear that people would misunderstand the boy . If he hadn"t been there, then there was nothing else he could do, but if he saw it, he was sure to say something . If other people believed him or not, that was up to them .

This episode left an impression in Meng Fan"s heart . He switched to a different shooting machine . He swiped his card and tried to break its highest record .

In the end, he only got 412 . He was only 9 points away from the high score of 421 .

One more time . 419 .

Again . 404 .

On the fourth try, he finally broke the record with 426 .

He waited for a moment . Hehe, no new tasks were triggered

He switched to another machine for half an hour or so and refreshed the high score of 428 on another machine . Seeing that he was almost there, Meng Fan stopped .

During this, Meng Fan went from failing at the first level to beating the record on two machines . It only took him about three or so hours . His speed of progress was impressive!

Actually, having foundations for physical fitness just didn"t feel the same!

Each round took about three and a half minutes from when the b.a.l.l.s were released . Before each round, Meng Fan would take a break before starting the next one . His current physical strength allowed him to get through five rounds no problem; hence, he completed five rounds in less than 25 minutes .

After five rounds, however, Meng Fan would have to rest for 5 to 10 minutes . Comfortably, he could complete ten rounds per hour .

Not counting the first round, Meng Fan did four sets, five rounds each .

The four sets of 5 all had a shooting count of over 300, meaning he threw about 100 a minute . This had brought out the limits of Meng Fan"s hand speed .

Meng Fan set the rim as his target, objectively having a good chance of hitting it . Therefore, the experience he gained from [G.o.d Tiered Pitcher] was also quite gratifying .

[G.o.d Tiered Pitcher] task phase 3: 5700/10,000 .

He was only two hours away from reaching 10,000 .

Of course, he couldn"t continue now . Just standing and shooting hoops alone had depleted enough of his energy . If he continued, his efficiency would definitely go down .

Besides, the arcade was closing soon .

This arcade was situated inside a large shopping center, so once the mall closed, the arcade had to as well .

Meng Fan collected the tickets produced by his machines and took them to the front counter . “h.e.l.lo, do you know a boy named Xiao Yang?” Meng Fan said to the girl at the desk .

The girl took a look at the cl.u.s.ter of tickets in Meng Fan"s hands and smiled . “Did you want to give these to Xiao Yang?”

Meng Fan nodded . It seemed like he wasn"t the only person to do this .

The front desk employee took Meng Fan"s tickets and fed it into a machine, taking out a card from the cabinet . There was a tape on it that said “Xiao Yang . ” She then turned to Meng Fan . “You can save them to this card, or save it to your card and transfer it to Xiao Yang next time you see him . ”

“I"ll put it in his card . ”

Meng Fan trusted her .

After leaving the arcade, Meng Fan took a cab back to his property next to the academy . For him, it was impossible to sleep before 1 a . m because of the +2 night owl ability he had gained . If he returned to school, the lights would be off . There weren"t any good manga to catch up with, might as well go home and draw .

Presently, “Guide to Campus RoMANce” had been updated three times . Since they had saved finished ma.n.u.scripts, they could publish one a day .

Based on Meng Fan"s current painting speed, he could still update once a week even if the ma.n.u.scripts didn"t exist . Of course, the premise would be that he would have to spend the whole day drawing, which wasn"t very realistic . Hence, when he had time, he would try to save as many drawings as possible to keep up with updating each day or once every two days .

It was very bada.s.s to update a manga daily!

Meng Fan did this so he could draw ten to twelve chapters and finish a volume . He could save money and publish it sooner and find out if this was an acceptable way to complete the task [Manga Artist] .
