Inside the stronghold of the Leap Nuclear Guild.
Mo Shigui was discussing real-life matters with Zhao Mingwei. Ye Linna wanted to join them, but she was dragged away by Lazy to help with the transplanting.
"The lawsuit between you and The Sovereign Descends will start in a week, and you might have to appear in court a few times … Here's your lawyer's contact details, and some documents will be sent to you soon," Mo Shigui said.
After a night of revelry, Mo Shigui didn't forget that Zhao Mingwei was still stuck in the quagmire of three hundred million in compensation.
Mo Shigui really wanted to drag Zhao Mingwei to thank him in front of Mr. Yin for his help this time. Before he retired, Mo Shigui was the captain of Sovereign Descent.
"How should I thank him?" Zhao Mingwei was a reasonable person. Mr. Yin had done him a huge favor this time.
"As long as I become stronger in this game, that's all."
This was Mr. Yin's original words. Mo Shigui had finished telling him everything he wanted to, but he suddenly thought of something.
"Where are you staying in Upper City now?" Mo Shigui asked.
"Internet cafe."
"Why not a hotel?"
"No money."
“?”
When Mo Shigui heard this answer, he held his forehead with a 'I knew it' expression. He was really fed up with Zhao Mingwei saying that he was' out of money 'with a matter-of-fact expression.
"It's fine if the price of gold was cheap when we played Dispute, but in Holy Ghost, 1 gold can be exchanged for 370 RMB. You can just buy 2 gold coins and you can stay in a better hotel for a night," Mo Shigui said in a frenzy.
Dispute had a gaming studio, which caused the prices of goods to drop rapidly. The price of gold had also dropped to the point where one could buy one gold for twenty dollars.
Holy Ghost had a crazy limit on the number of players. The influx of sixty thousand new players actually caused the unimaginably high price of gold in Holy Ghost to rise again.
Nowadays, gold merchants could make a lot of money just by hoarding gold coins.
"I have no more gold." Zhao Mingwei said something that shocked the heavens and made the gods weep.
Who was Zhao Mingwei?
Zhao Mingwei was one of the strongest PVP players in the Holy Ghost. As a Beta Gamer and a top gamer, Zhao Mingwei's equipment was the best equipment for a Qi Practitioner.
How could a first-tier Saint Ghost player say that he had no more gold?
"Where's your gold?"
"Special equipment, equipment enhancement, equipment repair, recovery items, there are many ways to spend money in this game." Zhao Mingwei said.
"…"
Mo Shigui kept rubbing the space between his eyebrows. Right now, he really felt like … an old mother who had handed over her tuition fees to her son, only to find out that her son had used it to buy snacks from the snack shop.
However, Zhao Mingwei was such a person. Others took the game as a supplement and focused on reality.
Even for a professional player like Mo Shigui, his attitude towards Gold Coins was to use them as much as he could and save them as much as he could. After all, the Gold Coins in the Holy Ghost could be exchanged for a huge pile of cash.
But Zhao Mingwei's point of view was' Crazy!
I don't even have enough Gold Coins in the game, and you want to exchange them for cash?
Can cash enhance my equipment to + 13? '
"I don't know how many times I've said this to you. You should at least have some money to spend in the real world," Mo Shigui said.
"Hmm, at least be able to afford the internet fees." Zhao Mingwei nodded in agreement.
He should have said 'at least be able to afford the food fees!'
Mo Shigui didn't lecture Zhao Mingwei anymore. Zhao Mingwei was almost twenty-five years old and was an adult. He should learn to manage his own life.
No, he couldn't learn.
The thought popped into Mo Shigui's mind again. Just as he was about to say something else, Little Feather suddenly shouted from the side.
"Guild Leader!
Guild Leader!
The Holy Ghost is holding an official press conference! "Little Feather shouted.
This shout was so loud that all the players in the Leaping Nucleus Guild who were building houses, transplanting seedlings, mining ores, and building mechanical arms stopped what they were doing.
"Live broadcast account."
“1015156572!”
"That long?"
"It's official."
All the members of the Holy Ghost Guild sat together again to watch the Holy Ghost's official press conference.
The Holy Ghost's official press conference had been quiet. Ever since the game was released, they had been interacting with the gamers in the form of updates.
But this press conference … Perhaps they could see the producer of the Holy Ghost?
Unfortunately, they were disappointed. They didn't see any game producer at the press conference. Even the press conference was set in the game's initial stronghold.
"Are you sure this is an official press conference?"
Mo Shigui glanced at the host. It turned out to be an NPC from the initial stronghold. He became more and more suspicious of the "legitimacy" of this press conference.
"I … don't know, Guild Leader. But this is Miss Cat's interview." Little Feather was also unsure.
Mo Shigui didn't ask these unnecessary questions. The popularity of the live broadcast had already soared to 1.3 million.
Presumably, the other guilds and most of the Holy Ghost players were paying attention to this live broadcast. Apart from that, there were also Holy Ghost players who wanted to enter the trap and players who were interested in the Holy Ghost.
A press conference was something that every gamer had to watch. Standalone game manufacturers would announce their new games at the press conference. Large online game manufacturers would discuss the subsequent updates at the press conference.
These subsequent updates would definitely … completely change the entire ecosystem of the game. Therefore, as the Guild Leader of a large guild, Mo Shigui not only had to watch the press conference, but he also had to understand it.
"With the efforts of the Holy Ghosts, the portal to another world has been completed. That is a world that belongs to the Holy Ghosts."
Queen Mey began her opening speech. "It is a world that we yearn for, but at the same time … your world is also being targeted by many threats."
"Is this a press conference or a plot CG?" The guild members heard Queen Mey's words and asked.
However, the others made a shushing gesture.
"We have contacted many guilds and organizations in your world. A small number of them are willing to provide assistance and supplies to the Holy Ghosts who are fighting on the frontline." Queen Mey looked at Air Bubble who was sitting in his seat.
Air Bubble stood up proudly and was about to announce his company's collaboration with the Holy Ghosts when he suddenly received a private message. It was sent to him by Sprite who had already knocked off work.
When Air Bubble received the private message from Sprite, the first thing Sprite said was …
"Don't show yourself!"
After opening a live broadcast for Air Bubble, Sprite got off work and was ready to go home to sleep. It seemed like she was on her way home from work.
After work, Sprite was also watching Air Bubble's live broadcast. At first, she thought that Air Bubble would announce his collaboration with the Holy Ghosts in the form of a company. However, he was standing in the press conference as a player.
"What do you mean, Sprite?"
Air Bubble lowered his voice and asked in a low voice. This secretary was assigned to him by his parents. They were afraid that Air Bubble would squander all of his startup funds. A large part of the reason why Cola Mania could reach its current scale was thanks to Sprite.
Therefore, he was very obedient to Sprite … He almost forgot what Sprite's real name was in the real world.
"You are not going to announce the collaboration between your company and the Holy Ghosts. Instead, you are going to announce the collaboration between you and the Holy Ghosts. This will have a negative impact on our guild and the Holy Ghosts."
Sprite said directly, "You only need to complete the content of the Holy Ghost's invitation letter. Look behind you, there is a map of the upper city."
After hearing Sprite's reminder, Air Bubble suddenly understood something.
What would other players think if a player was too close to a GM?
Although Miss Cat was definitely not a GM and was only an NPC in the eyes of many players, Sprite was still very considerate.
After hearing Sprite's reminder, Air Bubble turned around and looked behind him. On the wooden board that was originally full of bullets, suddenly … a map of the upper city appeared.
No matter how he looked at it, this map was in the style of a Holy Ghost. A Holy Ghost style map had a strong sense of a treasure map. This magical Uptown map was quite fresh to him.
On the map, there were five very conspicuous signs. These five conspicuous signs were the treasure. No … the supply points and assistance points that Queen Mey mentioned.
At a glance, Air Bubble could see that these five signs were all f * cking … stores under CEO Yin!
"These supply points will provide the Holy Ghost with items from the Holy Ghost World and items in the real world."
Seeing that Air Bubble didn't respond, Queen Mey continued to introduce the gameplay of the Inner World. Queen Mey extended her hand and zoomed in on one of the supply points. This supply point was the riverside hotpot restaurant.
"In this supply point, the Holy Ghost can obtain a warrior's food coupon. The food coupon can be exchanged for many items in the supply point."
Queen Mey's hand gently clicked and a variety of food icons appeared in an instant.
At first, there were a few food icons that looked like Holy Spirits, such as Abyss Beef x15, Dragon Roar Eight Treasures Porridge x15, and so on. These were all the most expensive food items in Holy Spirits that max-level players could recognize.
But after that, there were strange things like 'Holy Ghost Single Eat Until Full Set Meal', 'Holy Ghost Double Fight Set Meal' and so on.
When Queen Mey clicked on this set meal, it included a variety of lamb rolls, clear soup pot, fish tofu, and other food that players were familiar with in the real world.
"What is this?
Is the Holy Ghost also releasing a hotpot cooking system? "
"I … don't think so. This seems to be something that can be eaten directly in the real world."
"I remember this shop!
It's the entrance to the Fat Chirp Crusade dungeon. Yesterday, I ate their five-person set meal alone. I'm almost traumatized by it. "
While the players were discussing below, Air Bubble was still filling in the Holy Ghost invitation. The contents of the invitation made him instantly realize … there were two ways to link with the Holy Ghost.
The first way was like the Fat Chirp Crusade. If players went to this shop to eat or buy certain items, the players would be able to obtain in-game items.
The second method was completely advertising. After the Inner World system was released, there would be many challenge missions in the Inner World.
As long as the players completed this challenge mission in the Inner World, they would be able to obtain in-game items and experience rewards. At the same time, they would also be able to obtain in-game items as rewards.
Director Yin's hotpot restaurant had both cooperation options.
"This advertising method … is really interesting. However, the Little Prince of Hotpot is the Little Prince of Hotpot. It's shameful that he only gives out a hotpot set meal."
Air Bubble searched his company's stores … none of them were in Upper City.
There was only one company that Bubble could truly control, and that was Cola Mania.
The others were either shareholders or his father's companies. Air Bubble also had a certain say in this, but there were not many companies like Director Yin who could organize large-scale joint activities.
Helplessly, Air Bubble had to pay for it himself.
There were two famous business districts by the riverside of Upper City. One was the New World Square located at the bank, which was the business district where Director Yin's hotpot restaurant was located. The other was Blossom Square.
These two business districts were not far from each other. The two business districts had been competing for many years without a clear winner or loser.
Air Bubble's father was an investor in Blossom Square. Air Bubble had no right to interfere with the various activities in Blossom Square, but … couldn't he spend money to organize promotional activities?
Sure enough, there was an option in Blossom Square in the invitation letter of the Holy Spirit Fund, and there were three stores in Blossom Square that Air Bubble could choose from.
One of the three stores was a barbecue restaurant owned by his father. Another was a very famous sports brand that his father invested in. The third was the world's number one computer motherboard manufacturer and the world's number three graphics card manufacturer … Huawei.
It also had another well-known sub-brand among the players … Player's Eye!
Player's Eye also had a nickname among the players, which was … Squandering Eye.
Because the various computer accessories sold by Player's Eye were really expensive to the point that many ordinary players flinched at the sight of them. There was even an extension of, 'What's wrong with your family?
How dare you spend money to save up for Squandering Eye?
Do you want to die? '.
Air Bubble didn't lack this bit of money. He was definitely a nouveau riche player, so he used his own money to choose the most expensive set of equipment from the store's reward catalog. He also spent extra money to buy additional accessories to save up a complete VR console set.
The graphics card was Player's Eye Raptor 5080 Ti … X4!
The motherboard was also an upgraded version of Player's Eye XIII, EXTREME OMEGA, which translated to something like Rampage Beast.
The CPU was the Intel Core I13 Ultimate Supreme version.
Air Bubble was too lazy to look at the other models. Anyway, he just chose the most expensive one.
In the end, he came up with a VR console set that cost 630,000.
Just the world's top fantasy Z13 simulator alone had cost him a budget of 130,000 dollars.
630,000 to buy a computer?
Even if his father came over, he would scold him for being a prodigal.
But Air Bubble felt that it was worth it. Any player would feel that it was worth it.
Because it was the same as spending a lot of money to buy equipment in the game. No matter how much it was, as long as the level of the equipment increased, it was worth it!
This was the awareness that a fanatical player should have.
Air Bubble felt that this configuration of the console was enough to make all the players go crazy. Because an ordinary player with a computer console that cost more than 10,000 yuan was already considered a configuration that could boast to each other.
A VR gaming computer that cost 630,000 yuan, Air Bubble felt that it was no less than an ordinary person getting a sports car for the sake of clearing a dungeon in a game.
Bubble directly bought two of them as the challenge reward for the Blossom Square. Then, he paid the Saint Spirit Fund 2.5 million for the linkage fee and clicked confirm.
The moment the confirm button was clicked, a scarlet Player's Eye logo suddenly appeared on the map square behind Air Bubble.
"In addition to food stamps, there are also many other supplies prepared for the Holy Spirits." Queen May's introduction was interrupted by a sudden pause.
Other than food, what else could be used as supplies for the Holy Spirits?
She couldn't refine the HPMP potion in the real world, so Jiang Qiao didn't give her any more instructions.
Queen Mey had no choice but to reach out and click on the icons on the map to see what rewards the stores were willing to provide.
The scarlet eye icon that suddenly appeared attracted Queen Mey's attention.
She reached out and clicked on it. In an instant, a long line of horrifying words that made her tremble just by looking at the wallet popped up from the reward list.
