Exchange

After parting ways with the burly man, Ye Siyu followed the method he remembered for unlocking the Plane Watch's storage space and spent 200 points to unlock one cubic meter of storage. He tossed everything inside, then began exploring Plane Town and headed for its commercial district. Although he had absorbed the contents of the Plane Space newcomer's handbook into his memory, it was only information, without any images or the like. He still needed to walk around Plane Town himself to appreciate its wonders and functions.

Plane Town was divided into three areas: from the inside out, they were the Tower of Planes at the center, the commercial district in the middle, and the residential district on the outskirts. Each area was enormous, and getting around required teleportation.

Ye Siyu was currently in the residential district. Every chosen one who entered Plane Space received a small house of their own. The houses' locations were not fixed, but determined by when their owners entered. The closer a house was to the center, the earlier its owner had entered, and the stronger its owner was.

The chosen ones' strength and the time they had entered Plane Space could be distinguished by their ranks.

Newcomers like Ye Siyu, who had just entered the space, were Plane Apprentices with the lowest level of access. Only after completing a promotion mission could they advance to the next rank.

Chosen ones of different ranks had different permissions in Plane Space. Plane Apprentices had only basic privileges, such as spending points to buy food. They had no permission to learn their next mission world in advance or purchase powerful items.

The currency in Plane Space was points. Chosen ones could use them to buy food, ammunition, and other necessities for missions, exchange them for knowledge and abilities, or unlock their Plane Watch's storage function as Ye Siyu had.

Points came mainly from missions and from selling information and items to other chosen ones.

Missions were the primary source. Each completed mission received a score, and the points earned were calculated from that score and the grade bonus.

The calculation was the total mission score multiplied by ten, plus the grade bonus. The lowest grade, F, had no bonus. Starting at E, the bonus rose by ten percent for each successive grade. Ye Siyu's S grade, for example, gave him a sixty percent point bonus. (The previous calculation was wrong; the 2,014 points have been changed to 3,040.)

"Wang Nima headpiece from Rage World! Incredible defense, self-repairing, and amplifies your voice! Only 100 points!!"

"Information on a hidden mission in the Dark Souls world! 500 points!"

"One Pikachu from the Pokémon world! Orange aptitude! 5,000 points!"

"Qi Refining Pills! Pills that can increase the cultivation speed of those on the cultivation path! 100 points each! Limited supply, first come, first served!"

"Flame Cloak! Deals fire damage! 2,000 points!"

Lost in thought, Ye Siyu teleported to Plane Town's commercial district. As soon as he entered, he heard a clamor of sales pitches. All sorts of strangely dressed people were hawking their wares, and many walked around with screens resembling LED billboards above their heads. The place was bustling.

Some sold equipment, some sold pills, and others sold information. If something could be exchanged for points, someone was selling it.

Ye Siyu walked around and found a great many familiar and unfamiliar things for sale.

Seeing how lively it was, Ye Siyu decided to sell some of his own things. As for what to sell, he had already made up his mind: the T-virus Stock Solution.

He had already used a vial of the Perfect T-virus Enhancer to strengthen his physique, so the T-virus Stock Solution in his storage space was of no use to him. He could sell it for some points.

But he did not hawk his wares there like the others.

Instead, he put it up for auction in Plane Space. From his observations just now, he had noticed that most of what the chosen ones sold consisted of weapons, ammunition, and the like. Things that strengthened the body, such as the T-virus, were few and far between, and even when available, every one of them was extremely expensive, costing at least thousands of points.

To avoid being cheated because he was unfamiliar with the prices, he chose to auction it in Plane Space. At this stage, that was the best option for him.

Of course, although auctioning items in Plane Space was very convenient, it required a five percent commission, as well as a payment of ten points per day. Even so, it was better than being cheated.

After choosing to pay fifty points to auction it for five days, Ye Siyu left the commercial district and returned to his little room.

Ye Siyu then opened Plane Space's exchange panel with a thought.

Because Ye Siyu was only a Plane Apprentice, there was not much he could exchange for. The vast majority consisted of food and ordinary firearms and ammunition. The most powerful weapons available were rifles and sniper rifles; there were not even any rocket launchers.

Besides those things, there were also beginner-level knowledge and experience exchanges, such as language mastery, driving mastery, and firearms mastery.

"Exchange for beginner English mastery, beginner driving mastery, beginner firearms mastery, and beginner combat mastery," Ye Siyu said after looking over the knowledge and experience exchange panel.

Four motes of light in different colors drifted out of the panel and flew into Ye Siyu's head. Although he did not feel anything at the moment, he knew he had acquired four new abilities.

Looking at the remaining points displayed at the bottom of the exchange panel, Ye Siyu closed it.

Each exchange cost 500 points, for a total of 2,000. Together with what he had spent earlier to unlock his Plane Watch's storage space, the deposit for auctioning the T-virus Stock Solution, and the purchase and study of the newcomer's handbook, he now had 788 points left.

Ye Siyu did not spend the remaining points, because he needed to keep them in reserve.

Plane Space was not Lord God Space. Death did not mean the end, and there was no such thing as being wiped out for failing a mission. There was only one penalty for failure: a deduction of points. The first failure cost 100 points, the next 1,000, and the amount increased tenfold with each additional failure.

If a person did not have enough points to pay, they would be expelled from Plane Space and returned to their original world, with all their power and memories of Plane Space stripped away. So if someone wanted to leave Plane Space, all they had to do was keep killing themselves and failing missions.

After exchanging for the knowledge and experience, Ye Siyu closed the exchange panel and gently swiped the Plane Watch's screen. After two swipes, an S symbol appeared. This was a privilege of an S-grade evaluation, and it appeared only after receiving one.
