Snow Wave, who was confused about the situation, left Chika’s room with a face full of pain, and at the same time, was very puzzled by the reason why she was so disgusted…

Now that he came downstairs, he found that many players had gathered in the store. Players were queuing up in front of the counter, obviously buying card packs from Yuei Vu.

The players who came to buy card packs recently seem to have become more frequent. Being a player himself, Snow Wave could guess the reason.

One reason was that the Battle City competition has just ended. All the players participating in such a large-scale event have received quests, and more or less received a lot of rewards.

In addition, the system at the end of the event seemed to have given everyone a large number of crystals, so the players now have some spare cash on hand.

As we all know, screwball players and their crystals would soon be parted. Maybe before the event, many people were full of thoughts about how to accumulate crystals to prepare for a big wave, but after the event, they couldn’t help itching when they passed by the store, and they couldn’t resist the urge to play gacha.

It could be described like this: When a player walked into the store, he thought he just bought one pack, and it was really just one pack.

Then when he saw the big “50% OFF” sign hanging on the product column, he completely lost his mind. Some screwball players even said in an interview after the event: “You may not believe it, it was really my wallet that moved first…”

…but that’s a shop in normal games.

But if you thought about it carefully, would Yuei Vu be such a boring NPC who followed routines and had no distinctive features?

Would he hang the “50% OFF” sign like those unscrupulous merchants in other games to defraud players of their hard-earned money?

Of course not!

Yuei Vu: What the hell is sale-off? I just put up a “150% UP” sign, and the price of all the goods in the store will be increased by 150% from now on! What I want to do is to be an exclusive NPC, who never follows the routine.

After all, he was already the Duel King now, his net worth has doubled so many times, yet the price of goods has only increased so much. It is hard to find such a conscientious businessman nowadays.

Moreover, such a price increase would not affect the players’ enthusiasm.

There was another important reason that led to Yuei Vu’s decision. It was because the Open Beta was about to end.

The end of the Battle City chapter also marked the end of the Open Beta version. The official server would be launched soon, and a large number of players would log into this world soon.

Of course, it was impossible for such a huge base of players to all be stuffed into Domino – this city was not yet big enough to accommodate so many people in one go.

Therefore, the birth location of the player was randomly distributed by the system on a global scale.

Only Open Beta players could enjoy the privilege of landing in Domino City, known as the “Battle City”. Players who fail to obtain the qualifications of the Open Beta and subsequently enter the game could not start from this city.

Yuei Vu felt somewhat regretful about this.

Because the players who have just logged in could only play and explore in their respective cities, they would not have the ability to go to Domino to find Yuei Vu for a while.

So this meant that after the official server opens, he may have to travel around the entire earth and harvest his new chives…

I don’t need the chives to come to the door, I will collect them myself!

Yuei Vu deeply felt that an NPC like himself who was considerate of others was really unique.

Now the Open Beta players obviously want to take advantage of the fact that the official server has not been opened, and hurry up to see if they can widen the gap with novices as much as possible before the server opened.

Of course, the price increase would definitely not be brainless. Yuei Vu has fully considered the average number of crystals each player earned in Battle City and the upper limit of their recent income from level grinding and calculated what they could afford.

After all, if the price made it impossible for everyone to afford it, then it was meaningless.

And for players who didn’t want to spend a lot of money and have confidence in their European ancestry, Yuei Vu also considerately opened up new functions for them after the end of Battle City.

That was the loot box!

A card box was stuffed with hundreds of packs of cards, and then three or five cards are stuffed into each pack. Finally, make a list of the cards that may be drawn from the entire card box and put them on the side, and marked the most powerful cards with a big “UR” to attract players to draw.

“As long as you are confident enough and feel that your face was so white that you cannot look in a mirror, then I suggest you don’t buy a card directly, just draw a loot!

What if your luck explodes and three URs come out in a row?

Give it a go, a bicycle becomes a motorcycle.

Take a gamble, the motorcycle becomes a jeep.”

Sure enough, after the launch of this product, it received unanimous praise from the majority of players. Players came one after another these days, and the approval of customers could be seen from the length of the queue outside the door.

At this moment, a customer who just opened the loot excitedly shed tears of happiness, holding the cards that had just been opened, and rushed to the road outside cheering, his companions couldn’t pull him back.

(Passerby: My f*cking 5000 crystals are all sunk! 5000! Don’t stop me, I’m not crazy…)

As soon as Snow Wave came down, someone among the players who were queuing up suddenly shouted, “Brother Wave! It’s Brother Wave who is here!”

All the players were in an uproar, and the crowd spontaneously made way for him, like the Red Sea split in two in front of Moses.

Snow Wave was very proud of himself!

Did you see that? Tell me loudly, who is the most professional bootlicker around Yuei Vu?

Snow Wave straightened his collar and adjusted his posture. With his head held high, he walked past the players with a step that no relatives recognized.

Even the players who had finally lined up to the counter quickly stepped aside, but all of them were secretly laughing around Snow Wave.

Snow Wave couldn’t help but drift his thought away again.

This was the power of Favorability 40 — the invincible VIP ultimate gold super member (Snow Wave created this name himself).

This was a unique privilege among all players, and it was the highest priority in Yuei Vu’s store to buy card packs and draw loot!

When Snow Wave came, no matter whether the president of the guild or the young master of a rich family, a well-known streamer, or a professional boss, everything had to give way to him!

But before he reached the counter, someone laughed beside him: “Brother Wave, are you here to draw loot again today?”

Snow Wave snorted, walked to the counter, and smiled at Yuei Vu: “Yuei Vu-san, this time… let’s continue with the box from last time.”

“Do you think Brother Wave can succeed today?”

“I think it’s unlikely.”

“I heard that Brother Wave has long-term discounts in the store, and the crystals come quickly, but it just has to be done.”

“There’s no way, no amount of money can change your fate…”

Snow Wave became angry when he heard it, and stared at the other party with raised eyebrows: “I…I just sank once? Who hasn’t had bad luck yet?”

“What does it mean to sink once? I saw you open the loot yesterday morning, three thousand crystals. In the end, they all sank to the bottom, and only a Mad Lobster appeared!”

Snow Wave’s face immediately flushed, with blue veins bursting out on his forehead, and his expression was inexplicably similar to the “Mad Lobster” that he drew out yesterday.

“Can… can that matter be called sinking? That’s… called establishing a bond! That’s right, those spent crystals are symbols of the bond between me and the deck. Understand?”

While Snow Wave said some hard-to-understand words, he took out a lot of crystals…
