311 Goddess of Luck (1/2)
The players that were complaining about the update were mostly amateurs. The professional players had kept calm and rationale towards the update.
Humans had a talent as well. ”Learning” allowed the players to improve their proficiency with their skills, thereby making up for their natural disadvantage. Although the effects of ”Learning” were not so obvious currently, they would definitely become evident in the later part of the game.
Moreover, the other races had restrictions in terms of skills. Orcs could not learn magical skills, Holy Wingmen could not learn darkness skills, and the Elves could not learn defensive skills. Meanwhile, humans could learn anything. That was a clear advantage over the other races.
Wang Yu logged in into the game after browsing the forums, and saw that the rest of Quan Zhen Sect were online. Wang Yu could not help but be amazed that they were able to play the game more than him, despite that they had proper jobs.
The rest felt the same about Wang Yu as well. Wang Yu was playing the game like a job, from 9AM to 5PM each day, but stopped playing after dinner time, when the majority of other players were online. Yet, Wang Yu was somehow the best player in game. If they did not know Wang Yu, they would have suspected him of cheating
The game would be only going official in three days. The 10 million accounts that were released previously had all been taken, so the new races had yet to appear in the game. Wang Yu felt dissatisfied because he wanted to see what the new races looked like.
”What are you guys doing? Do you want to clear a dungeon?” Wang Yu saw that there was a storyline dungeon quest in his quests list, and immediately asked in the guild chat.
”We are doing faction quests, wait for us.” The rest replied. Without completing the factions quests, the storyline quests cannot progress. That was the system's setting.
”Bull, how much gold do you have? I need more gold to purchase the materials.” Frost Blade asked.
”You've spent them so quickly?” Wang Yu was astonished, ”I thought we had over 10 000 gold left just before the update?”
”Sigh, the players aren't stupid. Since they know that the purchasing power of gold is going to drop, everyone is selling their materials to spend on useful equipments.”
”I have 5000 gold left, I will send them to your mailbox now!” Wang Yu replied and found a mailbox nearby to send his remaining gold to Frost Blade.
After sending the mail to Frost Blade, Wang Yu suddenly realized that he had tons of items from Wonderland Forest left. Since everyone was spending gold like there was no tomorrow, he should sell them now.
Wang Yu then went straight to the convenience store.
When he had arrived at the convenience store, the situation gave him a shock. The whole alley was filled with people, he almost thought that there were people creating troubles for the store again.
After many attempts, Wang Yu realised that he could not squeeze through the crowd. He decided to get on the roof of the house beside him, and get to the store from there. After he was on the rooftop of the convenience store, he sent a message to Mu Zi Xian, and finally got in the store through the side door.
There were so many players that came to shop for items, that Mu Zi Xian had to call Li Xue and the rest for help.
When Li Xue saw Wang Yu suddenly appearing behind the counter, she was surprised, ”Brother Yu, have you come to help as well?”
”Erm... I am here to deliver some goods.” Wang Yu said in a frightened tone. He had spent too much time staying at home, and became socially awkward. He would not even be able to an auction, let alone selling items in a store, where bargaining was mandatory.
”Goods? What good?” Mu Zi Xian turned around as well.
”Equipments, potions, and stuffs…” Wang Yu took out a pile of items as he was speaking.
Top-tier arrows, medium grade recovery potions, and all sorts of magical equipments.
