Chapter 58 (2/2)

“What kind of game developer are you, to think of selling your own equipment?”

Jiang Qiao closed the System Tome and knocked it onto Ocean Blue’s head, and the piggy banks in the latter’s arms clattered onto the ground.

“Can’t I…?” Ocean Blue muttered as she rubbed her forehead. This was already the second time she had been rebuked by Jiang Qiao for suggesting an idea.

“If you want to become broke. These equipment are only so expensive because they’re limited in supply.”

Jiang Qiao knew that the special equipment sold on the website were all from the first Abyssal Hunt, and they couldn’t be obtained from any dungeon currently available.

As for epic equipment, players could obtain those in high difficulty dungeons, and while the difficulty was still quite high, but there was still a stable source. If a player had a skilled enough party, they could probably be able to get a whole set within a month.

“They wouldn’t be able to tell it was us, would they?’ Ocean Blue didn’t have any knowledge on finance and management.

“You’ve only been eating takeout, so there’s no need for so much money. Don’t worry about the profit, it’s going to come in the future as long as we manage the game well and increase the maximum players allowed on the server.”

Jiang Qiao didn’t really value money all that much. It wasn’t that he didn’t have any needs or wants, but he could control himself from earning money that he wasn’t supposed to, like the way Ocean Blue suggested.

“Fine…” Ocean Blue nodded with a pout, before continuing to order her takeout.

She was quite obedient in some ways, and Jiang Qiao had the feeling he was keeping a pet, and not a goddess.

After analyzing the current financial situation of Sacred Souls, Jiang Qiao reopened the System Tome and checked on the current growth and development of the server.

Jiang Qiao’s schemes… Ahem, development plans were quite successful, and the newly released main quest by Vigilist Floria gave all the players motivation to raise their levels as quickly as they could.

The MVP system in Sacred Souls gave the large guilds motivation to compete and brawl for the dungeon records, and the rate at which they partied up for the Tower of Trials and other dungeons was a few times more than before.

Jiang Qiao knew that the large guilds had already started to become serious, and not only did they start exploring and strategizing seriously, they also seemed to have started to seek help from outside the game.

These three days, Zhao Mingwei and Jiang Qiao had both been invited endlessly to challenge dungeons. Zhao Mingwei was their main objective, while Jiang Qiao was seen as an added perk.

As a result of this severe competition, the maximum number of players allowed on the server practically doubled, and when compared to how it increased by around three hundred daily in the past, it quickly increased to a steady rate of more than seven hundred a day.

The number of players in the game had finally broken the threshold of six thousand people, with a total of 6700 players.

Jiang Qiao was so elated by this that he wanted to celebrate with a cake, but he knew that this bit of players were still not enough when compared to the many successful games on the market.

This server limit was achieved through the efforts of the players in the Tower of Trials.

“Now we only have to wait for the Maker Energy to increase, huh?” Jiang Qiao glanced at the Maker Energy he had, and the amount had increased from fourteen thousand from nineteen thousand, with a rate of three to four points every day and the occasional fifty to sixty.

This Maker Energy was all from the players that killed the monsters in the Tower of Trials, as well as the sacred relics that they obtained.

“Hm? Well if it isn’t the ‘whale’ 1 Segman?”

Jiang Qiao saw the number of Maker Energy jump from three and four to +700 all of a sudden, and he knew that the prince had appeared.
