Chapter 193: Chapter 165: NPC Guards the Body! (Three in One)
After donning the “Starry Veil,” Chen Lun discovered he could edit the ID visible to other players, so he casually set his to “Black ssenger.”
At the sa ti, he understood clearly in his mind.
‘Objects like this that can transform one’s appearance and conceal identity enable the temporary effect of replacing one’s ID… Of course, if the ID couldn’t be changed, players would easily reveal their real identities with a bit of scouting.’
But Chen Lun didn’t choose “Black ssenger” to hide his identity. After all, strangers might not know who Black ssenger is, but players definitely would.
It was rely his way of deliberately adding a sense of mystery.
The battle at the square had been recorded and videoed by Su Keying, and with just a bit of effort, players could dig out that under the “Black ssenger” alias was “Jack Spett.”
What he wanted was to leave players with such a space to delve into, letting them think they were clever, offering them a little surprise.
“Foreign warriors…”
He approached a group of players and spoke with a low, raspy voice.
More and more players were crowding over from behind. There looked to be over a hundred and the number was still increasing.
“This land suffers in hardship, plague starts spreading, and the sick fall into madness, desperately needing your righteous hands to soothe this place’s wounds…”
He began speaking.
His face, obscured by the “Starry Veil,” presented a distorted and vague fog of darkness, impressing the players with an unknown fierceness.
He chose not to use the object to solidify a facial appearance, aiming for the sa effect—to increase the sense of mystery and coolness.
“But sadly, you are still very weak… I think I can offer you a little help…”
Chen Lun finished speaking.
Players glanced towards the top of his head, where suddenly a golden, sparkling, striking exclamation mark appeared!
And two clickable dialogue boxes—
“Exchange” and “Quest”!
So players couldn’t wait to step forward and try to click “Exchange.”
With a swish,
a virtual dialogue box that resembled a shop page popped up.
It was full of items available for exchange; focusing on them would reveal detailed information and the required price for an exchange.
One player’s eyes widened at the sight of the items, and he couldn’t help blurting out “Holy shit.”
Watching this, Chen Lun chuckled silently.
The product exchange list he had released was almost identical to the contents of the “Shop Book” Floey had, just the “basic edition” sold externally by the Circus.
But these were more than sufficient to satisfy these newbie players, even enough to shock them all sumr long—after all, the content was sowhat advanced…
More and more people clicked on the “Exchange” page, saw the items listed, and exhibited looks of surprise, desire, and conflict.
Antiepidemic Sugar Cubes, three different colors of potions, glittering Mysterious Objects, and that chanical Glove capable of shooting flas, etc…
Of course, what attracted them the most was the oddly shaped firearm listed at the very top of the list.
For no other reason than it was the cheapest, most substantial, and most likely to be brought ho.
For just 20 Silver Ducats, one could take ho a Flintlock Gun nad “Wrath.”
Its description made it clear that it was a “blaster,” with great lethality within ten ters, absolutely a powerful tool for clearing early stages in the ga!
The price Chen Lun set was very fair, as the sale price at the Silver Dragon Trade Association was 70 Silver Ducats.
Considering the financial status of these new players and their purchasing power, which definitely wasn’t great, he set the price lower to avoid making it too expensive for them to afford…
‘I’m too softhearted, I can’t bear to see players struggle…’ Chen Lun thought to himself.
So, in order not to lose out too much, he decided to increase the price of ammunition by several tis.
Arms dealers don’t get rich by selling guns…
The players arrived in Erald Town penniless, but the fact that they made it here proved they had grinded so money in the outskirts’ Novice Village.
However, most likely it was still insufficient to purchase “Wrath.”
“Everyone, eyes on ! Look at … I have an announcent to make!”
Suddenly a man’s shout rose from the crowd.
The crowd turned their attention towards the source of the voice.
It was Rotten Persimmon, the showy God’s Love Guild mber from earlier. He raised his hands high, his expression excited and solemn, he scanned the crowd twice before continuing:
“I am… Rotten Persimmon, and on behalf of the God’s Love Guild, I am officially ‘collecting gold’! The rates will be market price, 1 Credit Point for 1 Copper Kro, better rates for larger amounts, reputation guaranteed!”
Hearing his words, the majority were tempted.
After all, at this stage everyone’s pockets were not too deep, unable to afford much, nor did they have any urgent needs to spend… Now there was a chance to turn it into real-world money, it was more practical to make the exchange.
Yep, ribs are delicious!
Soon, Rotten Persimmon received a dozen or so trade requests. He frantically contacted the guild leader on the guild channel for reimbursent and conducted trades with these people.
Before long, Rotten Persimmon had gathered enough money, and then he ca before Chen Lun.
Without hesitating, he selected the “Wrath” Blunderbuss in the shop page, and also bought so ammunition and Antiepidemic Sugar Cubes.
Others weren’t much interested in Antiepidemic Sugar Cubes, but players like Rotten Persimmon who had ambitions and aspirations didn’t want to give up their weekly limited chances of resurrection easily.
