Jason gawked, his mouth wide as he stared at the notification.
His mind was in turmoil as he read through them.
Apparently creating items awarded experience points.
He had been worried that he could only obtain them through killing and quests, but now that he thought about it, it made sense.
His class was a research and production class, meaning that he wasn't supposed to have any fighting capabilities to farm exp and quests didn't just fall on ones lap everywhere they go.
So producing items through their class and obtaining exp through it was reasonable to facilitate production class growth.
Looking at the experience gain notifications he had three thoughts.
One, did this count as a reward?—Which would allow his multiplier cheat to work?
Two, what if he didn't press yes on receiving the exp, would it disappear?
Three, was the experience gain repetitive or was it a once off thing?
He could find out the answers to two of those questions for now so he decided to receive the '20,000' exp first.
He stopped himself though before he could.
'I'll do that later, I need to take care of those world announcements first before the timer ran out.'
Even though the timer had a lot of time for him to spare he was a bit paranoid and didn't want there to be be a chance for his identity to leak.
A player already knew his name, that Katarina wench that tried threatening him and he did not want more players to know about him.
And having his name in a worldwide announcement would put too much of a target on his head.
So he focused on the announcement and a screen popped up for him to make changes.
He chose to use an alias on both announcements.
The Alias he chose?
[Alias Chosen — Power Broker]
Was he stealing the name of an already solidified marvel character? Yes, did he care? No.
It was a cool name and it co-aligned with his plans anyway.
He had thought it up mere moments ago.
He needed money, not in game money though which in this world probably wouldn't be useful anyway.
He needed real life money, that way he can afford nutrient fluid to keep playing the game that he was still sure had supernatural elements connected to his world.
And money in order to afford real life gear in order to become a Hunter, gear would increase his chances at surviving a Dungeon Instance.
Plus he really hated living in that cramped apartment of his.
So he'd be selling his creations to other players, either for in game items that he'd need to further strengthen himself or money to further his goals in real life.

Jason winced, the announcements being read by the Games A.I straight into his head for every player to hear.
Shrugging he focused instead on the rewards obtained from being the first to create the two graded items.
Four world points combined from both notifications, a title and a B grade skill token.
He clicked on the '!' icon after each of his rewards, gaining a detailed analysis of what his rewards were.
[—World Points ~ The Ultimate Currency Inside the Game World, Allowing Access to the World Shop where various Mystical items, Powerful Skills, Class Awakening Items,
[—Pioneer[Title] ~ Grants a +20% boost to all NPC Reputation gains.]
[—B Grade Skill Token ~ Allows the player to pick any B Grade Skill inside the World Shop for free.]
" There's a world shop?" He muttered in amazement.
He wondered what sort of things were available there before shrugging and going through the rest of his rewards information, he'd look through it after.
He then looked through the Pioneer Title.
It was alright in his opinion, it would atleast make dealing with the people native to this world easier and that was before the boost the title would gain with his cheat.
Then there was the B Grade Skill Token.
An opportunity to obtain any B grade skill, that was a great reward as he was lacking in skills and he did need a combat skill.
Finally with that done he decided to start accepting his rewards from the experience points rewards from creating the two serums.
First thing he tested was what happened when he decided to refuse receiving the Exp.
He'd experiment with the 5,000 Exp reward he obtained from the C grade serum he created, he wasn't willing to sacrifice the 20,000 exp he obtained from the B grade serum.
So he refused receiving the Exp.
[—Refused to obtain 5,000 Exp! 5,000 Exp has been stored inside your Experience Bank.
Experience Bank — 5,000/200,000]
Seeing the results he breathed in a sigh of relief.
' So I have an experience Bank huh?' He thought, gaining more understanding for the game.
Second thing he was gonna test was whether the exp fell under the Reward Multiplier of his cheat.
So he received the 20,000 Exp reward second with anticipation.

" Fuck yeah!" Jason exclaimed, watching the level ups roll in.
