“Commerce?”
Many of the leaders were taken aback. They hadn’t thought as far ahead as Snow Leopard had.
“Of course.”
Snow Leopard explained in the chat room:
“Now, the technology in the Nemesis territory has developed to a point where large-scale industrial production has been realized. We can introduce this system into game worlds, make money from the native inhabitants in spiritual energy coins, and exchange for more resources.”
Snow Leopard previously had similar ideas about “commerce.” After all, the amount of spiritual energy coins dropped after monster kills in the wild was far too little. It wasn’t nearly as lucrative as training some full-time merchants to make money.
But due to the threat of the Skurus, most players were focused on leveling up and enhancing their capabilities rather than trading (after all, experience points can’t be bought with spiritual energy coins, and players didn’t need massive amounts of spiritual energy coins to buy high-level equipment at this stage), so there were very few players involved in commerce.
If Su Yu was successful in reversing the flow of time, players would have plenty of in-game time. They could pay more attention to the commerce sector, develop it further and earn more spiritual energy coins.
The leaders in the chat room were all seasoned veterans.
After Snow Leopard’s explanation, many people immediately envisioned a wide-ranging business prospect.
[Laser Pen]: “It’s clear, boss Snow Leopard! We will reposition ourselves as soon as Boss Ke succeeds!”
[Enemy in the Clouds]: “I really know a lot about commerce. After all, my father made his fortune in the 1980s by taking an opportunity… I mean he ‘seized the opportunity’ to become rich.”
[Snow Leopard]: “Enemy in the Clouds, didn’t many factory directors merge public property into private ownership at a very low price in the 1980s? Wasn’t your father one of them?”
[Enemy in the Clouds]: “Hehe, it was all legal and within the boundaries. It was the fastest way to get rich legally. We could also try this with some small countries in the game.”
[Red-Eyed Black Dragon] suddenly broke in: “Boss Snow Leopard, I have a question but I’m not sure if should ask.”
[Snow Leopard]: “If you have any, just ask.[Throwing Hands Up Emoji]”
[Red-Eyed Black Dragon]: “After Boss Ke succeeds, will the relevant departments also organize a group of people to do commerce?”
[Snow Leopard]: “Of course they will, is there a problem?”
[Red-Eyed Black Dragon]: “But isn’t the army not allowed to engage in commerce according to regulations?”
[Snow Leopard]: “…Is earning game coins in the game also considered ‘doing business’?”
[Red-Eyed Black Dragon]: “….”
…
Seeing that the leaders were having such a jovial chat, Su Yu decided not to participate in their conversation anymore.
In the chat room, his final statement was: “Everyone, please don’t spread this around just yet; it’s not certain if we will succeed. Also, our previous discussion about ‘spiritual construction’ should continue. Everyone shouldn’t relax even if we have extra time.”
After reading this message, Su Yu left the chat room amidst the acknowledgements of the leaders.
After leaving the chat room, Su Yu looked around.
He noticed that Bernina, Alyssa, and Tina had flown not far away from the giant golden hourglass and seemed to be inspecting it.
Without thinking too much, Su Yu flew over to them.
After arriving next to Bernina, Su Yu respectfully bowed and said, “Berlina, all of us foreign adventurers have agreed with your idea of ‘reversing the speed of time.’ Is there anything you need us to do about this?”
Bernina glanced at Su Yu and smiled, “I really could use your help. I am short of a few materials for this patch.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a game prompt sounded in Su Yu’s ear.
“Ding! Triggered legendary hidden mission: [Spin! Time Keeper]. Do you accept?”
“Accept,” Su Yu murmured in his heart.
And then he promptly reassured Bernina, “Rest assured, Bernina, I will do everything I can to help you gather the materials!”
“Ding! Legendary Hidden Mission [Roll! The Time Keeper] activated.”
“Mission description: God Level Mighty [Bernina Tide] needs a multitude of rare materials to change the speed of time at the [Time Keeper’s] place. She needs help from all directions.”
“Mission Requirements: Collect [Refined Mithril Ingots] X1000, [Ackbury Flower] X1000, [Core of Washing Sea] X1000, [Top Blaze Crystals] X1000, [Deep State Rock Core] X1000.
Collect [Soul of Life and Death (Emperor-Level and above)] X3, [Zhongya Hourglass (Legendary Gold)] X1.
Collect [Sun Mark] X1, [Luncet Eternal Badge] X1.”
“Mission Rewards: 1.[Bernina Tide] will use these materials to perform a full-blown sacrifice, reversing the flow of time between two worlds.
2. Receive the complete spell inheritance of [Bernina Tide].”
“Mission Countdown: 1440 hours.”
“Mission Failure Punishment: World Prestige -20, [Bernina Tide’s] Favor towards you -20.”
…
Caught by surprise at the mission requirements, Su Yu was stunned.
You’re tell me that this is a “bit” of material?
Moreover, the materials required for the mission are all rare materials.
[Refined Mithril Ingots], [Mithril] is a strategic reserve material for magic professions, and the uniforms and staff of the magician profession often use magical formations engraved with [Mithril].
1000 pieces of [Refined Mithril Ingots], conservatively estimated, are worth several billion spiritual energy coins!
[Ackbury Flower], a rare exotic flower from the primitive forest on the west side of the Lai Yin continent.
This exotic flower is known for not blooming for three years, but once it does, it emits an incredibly strong fragrance, attracting all the wild beasts within 10 kilometers to gather around it. Moreover, it has an extremely short blooming period: only three days.
Collecting 1000 [Ackbury Flowers] would be very, very difficult.
In addition to these two, [Core of Washing Sea], [Top Blaze Crystals], and [Deep State Rock Core] are also high-quality materials.
Interestingly, these five materials just happen to constitute “Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Soil,” which aligns with the “Five Elements” of the Pandamen Empire.
In addition to the 500 five-element materials, the items required below have small quantity requirements but their values are not low at all!
[Soul of Life and Death (Emperor-Level and above)], this type of soul piece is generally only found in the [Hall of Rebirth] and does not appear in other places. However, as everyone knows, the [Hall of Rebirth] boss, [Walnut], is a bona fide seventh rank legendary powerhouse!
[Zhongya Hourglass], no need to say more, Su Yu already had one.
The last two items, [Sun Mark] and [Luncet Eternal Badge], genuinely are not from the game world, but from the reality of Skru Star! Moreover, they’re all treasures of the Skru Star!
So, upon seeing this long list of mission-required items, Su Yu couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
