For the Food Source mission, there were three separate missions available. The first mission was farming for food. Players could choose either to plant vegetables and fruits or raising livestock or do both.
The second mission was also for food but instead of farming, the game asked the players to hunt for it. For players who disliked work like farming, the second mission was another choice. Since this was a fantasy game, hunting may help them keep their interest in the game.
The third mission was also for food. It was not farming or hunting but a gathering mission. This kind of mission was always available in many fantasy RPG games but usually, it was a simple gathering mission. However, this mission had a better purpose which was for food.
"Food Source 2 is the best choice for me," Keith spoke because his special stat was the sword. So, farming and gathering were not the best mission for his special stat.
"Gathering may be the best one for me," Ceylon spoke.
"Read everything first before you make any decision. This is only the food source mission but there is the security and living necessity mission too," Adrian reminded them. Since they made the wrong choice with their special stat, he ought to remind them that.
Keith and Ceylon nodded. The trio checked the security mission.
[Mission: Security 1
Description: For the safety of everyone in Green Orchid Settlement, security is a priority. The settlement is located in the middle of a wild and dangerous area. The settlement is not secured enough with the current fencing made by the original residents. Build a better fence around the settlement.

"Oh~ Security 2 is more suitable for me!" Keith was excited to see this.
"Hmm… Food Source 2 is only limited to animals and not beasts and monsters. These three are separated from each other?" Ceylon questioned.
"Their grades are different but maybe in Progress, only normal animals' meats are edible for humans?" Adrian wondered about this too. In the common Fantasy RPG, monster meat was more nutritious than a normal animal but in Progress, it looked like they were different?
"Let's check the Living Necessity missions! I already know what I want but, maybe there is a good mission in Living Necessity too," Keith was excited that he forgot no matter what he chooses, he still needed to work extra hard to increase his power in the game.
The trio checked the next missions.
[Mission: Living Necessity 1
Duration: 30 Days
Description: Water is an important thing that is needed to survive. It is useful in many things but the source of water is far from the settlement. The Green Orchid Settlement's residents need to walk far to reach a water source. It is dangerous and a waste of time and energy. Find a method so that the resident can easily gain access to water.

"…" Keith was silent when he read the Living Necessity missions. None of them suited him. Not only that but he had zero knowledge to help with this problem. So, he decided to keep silent.
"Living Necessity missions are the hardest out of the three categories," Ceylon spoke.
"Agree but the first mission is the most important one," Adrian spoke. "Water is important to everyone in this settlement. I don't see any water sources inside the settlement area."
"You are right and if you are to start farming, it will be hard without water," Ceylon agreed.
Adrian was thinking. When he read the Food Source 1 mission, he felt that that was the most suitable mission for him. However, after he saw the Living Necessity 1 mission, he realized the problem he would encounter if he did Food Source 1 mission.
"By the way, what are these contribution points?" Keith suddenly asked. "There is no contribution point for the Green Orchid Settlement mission."
"Future, what is this?" Ceylon asked his Future.
[Figure it out yourself, brat!] Future refused to answer.
"…" Ceylon was speechless. Since his Authority Level was the lowest, Future treated him like crap.
Adrian knew they did not get the best treatment but he did not know it was really bad. Adrian did not hear what Ceylon's Future spoke of but he still asked his Future.
[Contribution Point is the most important thing in this game if you are a middle schooler and high schooler. Remember that this game is mandatory to them?] Future spoke and Adrian nodded. It was not even a day since the launch of the game, so, Adrian obviously remembered it.
[How they will pass this curriculum is based on how many Contribution Point they can get. The passing mark is 70 Contribution Point but this is not your problem] Future spoke.
"70 points? Then, isn't that super easy to pass? This mission gives 100 Contribution Points," Adrian raised his eyebrow.
[Hahaha. No, that is not how Contribution Points are distributed. As you can see, there is a count for the number of participants for each mission. The 100 points will be given fairly among the number of participants. If you contribute more, you will get a higher point. If you do less, don't expect to get high points] Future replied.
"So, now I understand why you ask me to choose Green Orchid Settlement," Adrian nodded. Future gave him a big tip. With fewer Players in this settlement, no matter which mission he chose, he would get more Contribution Points.
"But, isn't this point useless to me and others who are not in school?" Adrian asked.
[The Contribution Point can be exchanged to Authority Point where you will get to increase your Authority Level. 100 Contribution Point for 1 Authority Point] Future replied.
"Again with the Authority Level… Can you tell me what the Authority Level can do other than the higher experience points and money?" Adrian asked.
[The World Government will announce it later. So, I cannot tell you anything but mark my words, it is beneficial] Future replied.
Adrian nodded and after that, he told Keith and Ceylon about it. The duo was happy to know about this because their Future refused to give them any explanation. They wanted to hug Adrian again as thanks but Adrian evaded them.
