I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms-Chapter 382 - 336: Unlimited... Experience Value Exchange Cards?_4

And with each upgrade, new buildings could be unlocked.

Of course, in the one-on-one PvP arena, the Tower Defense Master was at a complete disadvantage. Before his first building was even complete, the enemy would run up to his face and give him a beating.

...

As he left this project for the next, Chen Miao’s mood was incredibly good the whole way. That ring-tossing project, while not spending the full 200 million Star Coins, would at least bring him 5 million Experience Points.

That was roughly just enough to meet the requirements for leveling up to level 60.

His main expectation had been met, and everything that followed was pure profit. At that moment, his mood was like that of someone who had invested three million in a shop and, after several years, finally recouped the cost, now beginning to make pure profit.

Very nice.

Who would have thought? Just a few days ago, he was complaining about why Star Coins couldn’t be directly exchanged for Experience Points, yet today, he had found a shortcut.

...

After Chen Miao left, the crowd around the ring-tossing project grew even larger, all the players became more passionate, and bursts of excitement could be heard one after another.

Before Chen Miao’s arrival,

most people were actually losing money, with only a few lucky ones catching valuable items.

But after Chen Miao’s arrival, pretty much everyone was making money.

Even if they only caught three 100 Experience Value Exchange Cards, selling these three cards to the person Chen Miao had left behind would net them 900 Star Coins, meaning they only lost 100 Star Coins.

Totally acceptable.

If they were lucky enough to catch a 500 Experience Value Exchange Card, or even a 1000 Experience Value Exchange Card, that would be an incredibly profitable catch.

Almost everyone preferred to sell the 100 Experience Value Exchange Cards.

After all, for most players, a 100 Experience Value Exchange Card wasn’t really of much use; compared to that, 300 Star Coins were definitely worth a bit more, especially after having experienced disasters like floods, the Day of Death 79, and the Civilization War.

Following such world-altering events,

becoming Supernatural almost became a consensus among everyone.

No matter how many houses one had, they were all wasted in a flood. No matter how much money one had, it was useless in a war without strength.

The consequence was that after the Civilization War, the value of Star Coins reached a consensus among everyone, and people began to sell all their assets in exchange for Star Coins.

This led to a major financial crisis that swept through the entire Federation.

But no one cared about that.

And the exchange rate between credit points and Star Coins also skyrocketed.

100 Star Coins could now be exchanged for 10,000 credit points.

At a 1:100 ratio,

this was much higher than the previous exchange rates. With masses of people starting to buy Star Coins and only a few selling them, the available supply in the market began to dry up. Consequently, the value of Star Coins climbed even higher.

Chen Miao’s purchase could be said to have satisfied all players.

They all thought they had made a profit.

Chen Miao was also satisfied, believing he had made a profit too. Both parties profited; it raises a question worth contemplating—who actually lost?

...

In the following day,

Chen Miao, along with the Tomb Guardian Power members, tackled one project after another. The rewards were generally good, but for an ordinary Supernatural like him, it was somewhat insignificant.

After experiencing the last S-rank secret realm, where each level passed rewarded millions of Experience Points,

he now felt completely indifferent to these small rewards.

Perhaps this was the harm of gambling.

Once a seasoned gambler has experienced turnovers of over a hundred million, facing a job with a monthly income of seventy to eighty thousand no longer excites him, even though he knows that for the average person, such a job would be exceptionally difficult to land.

To determine if a gambler is beyond salvation, you have to see whether they talk about their turnover.

Any gambler who talks about turnover is pretty much beyond redemption; their value system has been destroyed. Continue reading at novelbuddy

Just like that...

Late into the night, Chen Miao and the others found a hotel to check into, planning to rest for the night and discuss things the next day. They had no intention to stay up all night—after all, they were to be in the secret realm for seven days. You can’t possibly stay awake for seven nights in a row, can you?

They were only Supernatural beings, not deities.

They still couldn’t endure staying awake for such a long time.

Yes, there are hotels in the amusement park, and they are rated with stars, ranging from one to five. The hotel they checked into was a five-star hotel, the most luxurious and expensive one. For their large group, staying one night cost over 200,000 Star Coins.

Even a single basic room for one night was around 6,000 Star Coins.

This truly wasn’t something an ordinary person could afford.

Of course, for Chen Miao, he wasn’t short of Star Coins at the moment. He didn’t want to self-deprive just to save a bit of money, preferring to spend it to live more comfortably.

But a one-star hotel was much cheaper, with a basic room costing around 600 Star Coins a night.

That’s a tenth of the price of the five-star hotel. Even so, a room at 600 Star Coins a night was still something most people couldn’t afford. Or to put it another way, while many could cough up 600 Star Coins, spending that amount just to stay a night at a hotel would be like taking their very lives.

Below the one-star hotels, there are no budget hotels, no cheaper options.

So after nightfall, you could see many players simply finding any open space to flop down and sleep. Some slept in trees, some leaned against trees, and some against walls, in all sorts of positions.

They’d save wherever they could; after all, Star Coins don’t grow on trees.

...

Meanwhile, a member of the Tomb Guardian Power who stayed at the previous attraction reported back to Yuan Buping.

"Miao, the first day’s results were very good,"

Yuan Buping came over with a big smile and whispered excitedly, "And because of you, Miao, that attraction is extremely popular. A lot of people are playing. Even now, deep into the night, there are still many players participating. They’ve started taking shifts, one person on duty while the other sleeps, ensuring there’s always someone there."

"Just the first day, only half a day really, and we’ve already received over 4 million Experience Points’ worth of exchange cards!"

"It cost over 12 million Star Coins."

"Hm?"

Chen Miao’s eyebrows raised quizzically, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Over 4 million Experience Points’ worth of exchange cards?"

He couldn’t help but grin, clearly very pleased with the response. It was a complete exceedance of his expectations. Just in the first day, 4 million Experience Points worth of exchange cards had been collected. How much more would follow, considering the secret realm event lasted for seven days.

When he left the secret realm, wouldn’t he be holding exchange cards worth over 20 million Experience Points all at once?

He finally understood the joy of capital.

Without this wealth of Star Coins, and if he had to earn Experience Points by passing the challenges of the secret realm in the normal way, he dared not imagine how long it would take to amass 20 million Experience Points.

Even if he worked himself to death in the secret realm all year round, he probably couldn’t make that many Experience Points.

No wonder people both hate and love capital.
