Three full-service announcements. Usually, such announcements would only appear to announce matters of great importance.
These announcements could be heard throughout Second World.
When all the other players heard the announcements, they were shocked. ‘Other than having the NPCs kill people on his behalf, God Slayer actually killed a wild boss?’
Instantly, the same question appeared in everyone’s mind, ‘Who was God Slayer?’
Meanwhile, Mike was narrowing his eyes.
He did not mind the full-service announcement. On the contrary, he liked it very much.
After all, achieving a full-service announcement was extremely difficult. He had never experienced this in his former life.
Although he did not want to attract too much attention in the real world, he did not mind being famous in the game as it could bring him a lot of benefits!
Soon, in the midst of everyone’s discussion, Mike posted a trading post in the forum.
The content of the trading post was 90 excellent iron ores with a price tag of 9,000 federation coins.
1 excellent iron ore for 100 federation coins!
Nonetheless, Mike’s monthly expenses were only 150 federation coins.
Although Mike’s poor living conditions contributed to it, students from ordinary families had to spend at least 600 federation coins a month.
In other words, these 90 excellent iron ores were essentially the annual expenses of an 18-year-old student.
90 iron ores, even if it was of excellent quality, was it really worth that much?
The answer was yes!
That was because this was a new region!
…
Ever since the server updated a few decades ago, a new region had appeared in Second World.
Every year, at 11:59 pm on December 30th, the new region would merge with the big region.
The following day, at 12:00 am on December 31st, a new region would appear.
New players of Second World would first enter the new zone. They would only enter the big region on December 30th of the second year.
If someone logged into Second World for the first time on the 30th of December, they would enter the new region. However, the next day, they would enter the big region.
No one knew why Second World suddenly did this, but it was good for the beginners.
Because new players like them would not need to compete with seasoned players!
This was also why the federation wanted all new 18-year-old players to log in on December 31st.
This was a protection mechanism for new players.
Hence, everyone followed willingly as it was beneficial to them.
In this game, the competition was quite cruel. After all, almost all the humans in the world were playing Second World. Where there were people, there would be conflicts of interest.
In the big region, almost every corner of the map had people fighting for resources. The various large guilds controlled many rules.
