377: After Modification: Chapter 346 Buy Land 377: After Modification: Chapter 346 Buy Land Li Cheng first went to the black market and sold all the items produced by the Toy Factory this month, making over 16,000 Ga Coins.
Then he went to the auction house and priced the [Thunder Dance King Battle Boots] at 11,000, listing them for sale.
In less than half an hour, they were bought at the instant buy price of 16,000 by an anonymous player.
After deducting the auction house fees and adding the 8,000 points from the Immortal Court Lawyer task, along with the 4,049 he had saved up, his net worth officially broke through the 40,000 mark, reaching 46,113.
With such a large sum of money, consumption was inevitable.
Li Cheng walked out of the auction house, it was evening (the slum is part of the killing field entity, with no sunlight, relying completely on street lights and high-altitude searchlights to simulate day and night),
The streets were crowded, and the neon lights along both sides were colorful and dazzling, with everything from karaoke bars, dance halls, ga arcades, cinemas, to saunas…
“Hey handso, co and play~”
A clear, alluring voice called out from across the street, where two scantily clad young won leaned against a wall, beckoning to Li Cheng, with a neon sign overhead reading [Bloody Fighting Club].
“Uh…
I’ve got sothing else, gotta go.”
Li Cheng politely declined and quickly walked away.
According to player forums, this [Bloody Fighting Club] is suspected to be a joint venture between the South Arican drug cartel and Thousand Throats Beast Guild,
It has an unrestricted fighting arena and monster cultivation tanks inside.
Players can use brain-machine interfaces to control monsters to fight, just like controlling characters in a ga.
Whether killing the opponent or being killed, players can vent suppressed emotions through the extrely realistic near-death simulations.
The average lifespan of players is less than two and a half years, and the extrely high mortality rate brings trendous survival pressure, causing many players to suffer from various ntal illnesses.
Controlling monsters for high-realism death battles and experiencing near-death simulations is considered a lighter symptom compared to self-harm or drug abuse.
Li Cheng knew that so players used to intentionally take drugs to induce personality splits, switching to a ruthless personality for script tasks,
Then switching back to their main personality to enjoy life after completing the task.
As for the end result…
it didn’t turn out like many literary works describe, where the alternate personality grows dissatisfied and plots to overthrow the main personality,
Instead, the main personality sought out GS Biotechnology to create a gender-swapped clone body and transferred the alternate personality into it, and the two got married.
It can only be said that the killing field is vast and full of wonders.
Li Cheng walked briskly through the slum alleys, politely declining gym mberships and sales pitches, arriving at the slum administration building.
Yes, now that the Toy Factory’s operations are stable with monthly inco secured, it’s ti to buy a piece of land in the slum and open a shop.
This way, he wouldn’t need to pay auction house fees every ti he buys sothing.
“Self-service for real estate acquisition is…
here.”
The administration building was nearly empty, Li Cheng glanced at the map on the wall, took steps towards the self-service terminal, and began selecting a plot of land.
When the killing field first appeared, major guilds led by GOC discovered the slum and realized that players here couldn’t harm each other, leading to fierce battles over the ownership of the slum.
Many died.
Until exhaustion forced them to sit down and negotiate, jointly developing the slum.
They appointed representatives to form a committee and built the administration building.
All services like water, electricity, gas, internet, and waste and sewage treatnt within the slum are managed by the administration building.
If players want to buy land and open shops, they also need to handle it in the building.
“The prices in the city center are way too high, 400 square ters for 150,000 Ga Coins.
Robbing a bank doesn’t make as much money as you guys do.”
Li Cheng exclaid as he looked at the prices displayed on the self-service terminal for purchasable land.
The high-rise office buildings in New York City Center have an average purchase price of 12,000 RMB per square ter, while the slum land price skyrockets to a terrifying 3,750,000 RMB per square ter, more than 31 tis the forr.
And that’s not counting the high premium when converting large amounts of Ga Coins into real currency.
“Forget it, let’s look elsewhere.”
Li Cheng decisively swiped the screen, “This plot looks good, 4,500 Ga Coins, 200 square ters…”
“Uh…
Li Cheng?”
A familiar voice sounded from behind, Li Cheng turned around to see the Red Driver wearing a motorcycle helt, holding a registration form, with Bai Jixiong standing next to him.
“Oh, it’s you two.”
Li Cheng’s tone was relaxed.
The Red Driver was an old acquaintance and Bai Jixiong had previously been a teammate in an otherworld collapse task.
“Are you two here to register for a certificate?”
“?
Register for what certificate?
This isn’t a civil affairs bureau.”
The driver awkwardly scratched his helt and raised the registration form in his hand, “We’re here to pay the overdue fire safety fee.”
The Red Driver and Bai Jixiong were friends from the real world.
They rented an open space at the farthest edge of the slum to breed demon beasts, train demonic pets, make so short videos, and earn so product promotion fees.
But raising too many demon beasts easily led to accidents.
A few days ago, a juvenile Fire Dragon escaped its cage and breathed fire all over the park, nearly causing a fire.
The driver ca to pay the overdue fire safety fees today.
“Uh…
Li Cheng are you here to buy land?”
Bai Jixiong, with sharp eyes, noticed the self-service terminal behind Li Cheng.
“Yes,” Li Cheng nodded, “I’m planning to open a small shop and run a little business.”
“…”
The driver and Bai Jixiong exchanged glances, struggling to hide their shock.
Renting and buying land in the slum are two completely different concepts.
Renting requires paying rent monthly, leaving the rest for self-improvent.
Whereas buying land requires spending tens of thousands of Ga Coins at once, enough to buy several perfect quality pieces of equipnt.
Even so Lv25 and Lv30 high-level Transcendents might not have that much cash.
Bai Jixiong hesitated for a mont but couldn’t suppress his curiosity, asking, “What kind of business will your shop primarily run?”
“Mainly accepting commissions for customizing equipnt and Skill Scrolls,”
Li Cheng said casually, “Also offering body enhancent and dical services, occasionally guest-starring as a veterinarian.”
Ah…
Ah?
The driver and Bai Jixiong were bewildered.
Even large guilds like Protheus, which nurtured many support-oriented players, offer equipnt customization only to VIP and VVIP clients.
As for customizing Skill Scrolls, they have never seen it before.
More critically, support skills usually specialize in one direction only,
Li Cheng’s services span equipnt customization, Skill Scrolls, body enhancent, and dical services.
Does he possess two support-oriented abilities?
Dude, you must be joking!
Can you share the paraters if I join your group?
Bai Jixiong hesitated, “How do the dical services work exactly?”
“Internal dicine, surgery, pediatrics, gynecology, proctology…
all treatable.
Though the solutions might be unconventional.”
Li Cheng coughed slightly, indicating that Assembled Puppet·Modified equipped with a Technology Singularity Device could work on humans.
It can disregard physical laws and biological immune systems, freely modifying living beings.
Heart disease?
Remove the heart and install a high-power airplane engine, ensuring athletic performance spikes, with a heart rate comparable to an Emperor Engine.
Cancer?
Remove the cancer-affected organ, replace the lungs with air purifiers, the intestines with PVC hoses, the nerves with light fibers.
Severed limbs?
Choose between chanical and demon beast limbs, ensuring no rejection reactions.
Even brain-related terminal illnesses like Alzheir’s Disease, Huntington’s disease, or brain cancer, Li Cheng has counterasures.
First, activate Information Integration Glasses to locate the affected area, then use Assembled Puppet·Modified to remove the diseased parts, and finally replace them with CPUs.
Ensure that a senile person instantly transforms into a ntal calculator, capable of competing in the strongest brain competitions.
If the patient’s family isn’t concerned, Li Cheng can even turn a dying patient into a super warrior with three hearts, two lungs, copper skin, iron bones, titanium alloy spine, electronic eyes, radar ears, left arm Gatling gun, right hand rocket launcher, brain-controlled suicide drone swarm, and a back-mounted turbofan engine.
