"So that's how it is."
After reading this "Novice Guide," Lin Yu felt he understood the "Death game" more and more clearly!
Because of his "Fraudster" class, every bit more he learned about this game made him genuinely stronger.
"It's a pity I don't know what 'advancement' is all about. Otherwise, I might even be able to play the role of an even more powerful expert!"
Lin Yu sighed inwardly.
After reading this Novice Guide, he also downloaded several other guides and carefully read through them.
Before long, Lin Yu had also learned about many things beyond the "Death game."
For example...
The "gathering" the day after tomorrow!
Just as Uncle Harmony brings wealth had said, the gathering and the forum were inseparably connected.
Through transactions, one could obtain "Forum Points."
The reason these "Forum Points" were hard currency... was that, in the beginning, they could be used to post "bounties" on the forum—asking others to take you through an Instance, inquire about information, and so on. Everything could be paid for with points!
The "forum" itself also provided a service for exchanging points for RMB. The rate was one point for one hundred RMB!
However, players could not obtain points by "recharging with RMB."
Aside from obtaining points from other people, the only ways to acquire points from the official "forum" were to publish posts that made a "contribution" or complete "commissions" issued by the forum officials!
Among the bounty listings, there were quite a few bounty missions and bounty targets posted by the forum authorities!
Lin Yu felt that these matters were still far too distant from him, so he did not look into them in detail.
What he focused on understanding was the "gathering" itself!
Different cities had different gathering locations.
These "gatherings" were not organized by the forum authorities. Most were held by local organizations within the cities. After receiving official forum certification, they could be posted publicly and promoted by the forum.
Of course, there were also some small, irregular "gatherings" organized spontaneously without the "forum's" approval...
But whether such gatherings were safe and worth attending was something the players who saw the information had to determine for themselves.
Although anyone who used this method to murder and plunder seemed likely to be "blacklisted" by the forum and might even be watched by an organization called the "Administrators"...
Once someone had lost their life, any punishment afterward naturally meant little to the victim!
Fortunately, the address Lin Yu had received that day really was the official gathering point in Jiang City, certified by the forum.
The time listed there also matched.
There was even information about the person in charge of this "gathering." His name was Tycoon.
Lin Yu instinctively felt that this "Tycoon" was probably the same uncle he had met, whose WeChat username was Harmony brings wealth.
"Come to think of it, the name he chose really does suit his 'temperament'..."
Lin Yu muttered.
After finishing these guides...
Lin Yu fell into a deep sleep in bed.
The next morning, Lin Yu woke up in bed.
Although he had two general education classes that day, Lin Yu had never been interested in "Entrepreneurship Guidance for College Students," so he directly took the entire day off and stayed home to continue studying the guides.
After serious consideration, an idea formed in Lin Yu's mind.
An idea to make money through this "gathering" and compensate his older sister, Lin Zhao!
"Since this game already exists, my life can no longer remain as peaceful as it was before..."
"Then I might as well make good use of it to earn some money and improve my sister's and my life!"
Lin Yu exhaled, his expression turning resolute.
The simplest way to "make money" was to sell "Items" at the gathering!
After all...
When entering an Instance of the Death game, even if you had an entire arsenal in reality, you still couldn't bring it inside!
Someone had conducted experiments. Upon entering the game, the only thing you could bring in was the clothing on your body!
A Card Key or something similar was already the limit...
Food, water, paper and pens, lighters, and other things kept in your pockets could not be brought inside.
Even clothing itself was subject to restrictions. If you wore a bulletproof vest or clothing with obvious special functions, you might be stripped completely upon entering the game and end up naked!
Therefore, "Items" were extremely valuable in this game.
Just imagine: if you were in a survival-type Instance where the main challenge was "finding food"...
If Lin Yu had brought out plenty of bread and water from the Novice instance beforehand, wouldn't the difficulty of that Instance be greatly reduced for him?!
Not to mention the many weapon-type Items that could greatly increase one's Combat Power.
Although there were quite a few Enhancement Class professions, many of them provided enhancements like Otaku's.
Classes like "Soldier," which could greatly increase one's "frontal combat strength," were highly sought after wherever they went and were targets for every major organization to recruit!
For other class users, the best way to increase their "Combat Power" was still to rely on Items.
Lin Yu had a deep understanding of this.
The Infallible Revolver in his hand gave Lin Yu tremendous confidence.
Otherwise, he would not have dared to venture alone to that address yesterday!
"So, a sharp, well-preserved Item like a hatchet can easily sell for more than a hundred Credit Points!"
More than a hundred Credit Points...
That was several tens of thousands of RMB in real terms!
If he happened to meet a player urgently in need of a handy weapon Item, he might even be able to sell it for over a hundred thousand!
At that thought, Lin Yu could not help feeling a little regretful.
There had been so many exquisite werewolf weapons in the first Instance...
Unfortunately, he had barely brought any of them out!
Lin Yu was not stupid enough to consider selling the most trustworthy trump card he currently had: the Infallible Revolver.
Although, based on auction information mentioned in forum posts, Lin Yu estimated that this thing might be worth more than a million!
Even so, Lin Yu had no intention of selling it!
Making money was certainly important... but not important enough to risk his life.
As for the "Lie Detector"...
Putting aside the fact that it probably would not fetch a very high price, the most important thing was...
This thing meshed perfectly with Lin Yu's "Fraudster" class abilities.
When that madman Yu Longguo had forced Lin Yu into a desperate situation in the Novice instance, Lin Yu had been able to defy fate and use fraud to achieve a "rollback." To some extent, he had relied on this miraculous Lie Detector, which had used its functions to turn his least credible statement into a "truth" that took root in everyone's hearts!
Even if he no longer needed it in the future, Lin Yu still had no intention of simply selling this "meritorious hero"!
Even without selling these two Items...
Lin Yu still had no intention of giving up on the opportunity to make money through this "gathering"!
He had already thought of a brilliant plan!
