Chapter 642: The Opening of Neon Star Tower (3)
A while later, after experiencing the simulation of the Neon Battleship, Jakari and his team went out in excitement.
"This battleship is truly different!"
They thought it was similar to a regular Tier 6 battleship, albeit using an alternative energy source.
However, it was fundamentally different; from the control, to power and agility, it already bordered on a tier 7 battleship.
"How about it? Should we buy a few more battleships?" Jakari asked his team with a smile.
Having already spent 10 trillion, they didn’t mind spending more.
The rate of return on these battleships was guaranteed.
After taking them to the battlefield, killing a swarm of dark beasts, and earning merits, they could quickly recoup their investment.
After that, the ship would basically be a free harvesting machine that didn’t need additional energy.
As long as they were careful and protected it from stronger dark beasts, they could earn as many merits as they wanted.
"Let’s go buy some more!"
Without further ado, the group quickly went to the counter to order more Neon Battleships.
Unfortunately, just as they were thinking of a bright future, the clerk told them the Neon Battleship was already sold out.
"What do you mean we can no longer order a Neon Battleship? Can’t you create more? It’s fine if we wait a little longer," Jakari said angrily.
In just a few hours since the shop opened, they could no longer order a Neon Battleship? How outrageous.
"I’m sorry, sir, but the quota for the Neon Battleship is already full. If you want to order more, you would have to wait until we fulfill all the earlier orders," the clerk said apologetically.
"Can’t you do anything? We can pay more!"
"I’m sorry..."
To prevent being overwhelmed by orders, they only sold a million quota.
They initially thought it would take a long time to sell out; who knew it would be gone so fast?
"Sigh. This is outrageous."
Unable to order another ship, they could only sigh.
Fortunately, they had been able to order a thousand before.
Seeing others wailing and unable to even order one, smiles returned to their faces.
Jakari, not wanting another regret, took his team to browse the potion section and the potion production line.
Although not as valuable as the Neon Battleship, it was still an important resource that everyone needed.
After taking a list and marking everything they needed, they quickly paid for everything, fearing it would be sold out again.
After counting their remaining void source crystals, they went to the last floor and exchanged them for soul crystals.
"What is this for? Have you tried it?"
"Hmm, it’s quite effective. Not only is it helpful for replenishing energy, it can also be used for training," Jakari explained calmly.
Having tested the effect of the soul crystal, Jakari could only say it was worth the price.
"Are you sure?"
Not in a hurry to leave, they bought some samples and used them on the spot.
Feeling their souls cleared and energized, with all the elements and energy in their bodies filled, their eyes quickly widened.
"This—" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
"This is a miracle!"
"Quickly buy everything; it might be gone after a while."
Seeing a crowd already secretly buying them in bulk, Jakari’s team began to rush to buy them.
"Hahaha, I told you to buy them earlier. This is what happens when you don’t listen to me."
"Alright, alright, enough bickering. Come on, help us buy more!"

Meanwhile, as the popularity of Neon Star Tower began to spread within the Azure Public Trading Zone, crowds after crowds began to flock to them en masse.
Although they couldn’t buy the Neon Battleship, they still tried to see how it fared in the virtual world.
Filled with amazement, they couldn’t help but offer a higher price just to buy more.
Unfortunately, due to strict rules, even with all kinds of temptation, the quota was not increased.
Unable to buy the Neon Battleship, they moved on to other floors, discovering another kind of wonder.
From cheap high-potency potions, production lines, and, more importantly, soul crystals.
Seeing all kinds of rare things inside some unknown shop, they felt they were getting a bargain.
Opening their pockets wide, they began to buy everything they could.
After they were gone, they didn’t even leave out the various miscellaneous items.
Who knew if they contained some mysteries they couldn’t find?
Anyway, with all kinds of wonderful products for sale, the Neon Star Tower shouldn’t be underestimated.
As a result, just a day after the Neon Star Tower opened, all its branches within the Azure Public Trading Zone were emptied!

In the Neon Star Alliance headquarters, Nash, who was facilitating all the storefronts remotely, was full of smiles.
"It was a success!"
From across 1,000 shops, all their inventory was sold!
Tabulating all the orders, without even including the Neon Battleship and the potion production line, they earned over 3 quadrillion!
"Haha, the time for the Neon Star Alliance to rise has come!"
Including the Neon Battleship and potion production line, they could earn over 10 quadrillion in total!
This was pure profit, after materials and labor.
"Unfortunately, we lack manpower; otherwise we could earn a lot more."
The stocks of potions they had, even after months and years, were too few.
Factoring in the time and labor it took, it was too slow to earn money.
Furthermore, the reason they sold so well was because of the heat their popularity generated.
Once everyone had enough potions in stock, they could probably only sell a few.
As for the soul crystal, Nash only sold it to attract more people, not to earn money.
The true money-making machine they had was the Neon Battleship.
Not only was it cheap, it could also be mass-produced by a production line.
As long as they had enough people with over 90% purity in power, they could rake in all the money.
The only problem Nash had was how to deliver those million Neon Battleships.
"A million, huh?"
With their efficiency, it would take ten million nonprofessional workers and 10,000 production lines to complete the order in a year.
"We still have a lot of work to do..."
