Chapter 305: Selling Equipment

~8 min read 1,456 words

At the very back of the beast tide, because players in relatively forward positions were unwilling to share their spots with players behind them, or because these forward monsters had no more room, the players in the rear became dissatisfied, sparking a great battle.

At first, everyone mainly focused on seizing spots and tried their best not to harm the monsters capable of carrying vehicles, but as the fighting continued, things began to spiral out of control, and the scale of the conflict grew larger and larger.

In the end, the players without monster transport concentrated their firepower, severely wounding the giant monsters and forcing the players on top to flee by vehicle just like them.

Without the giant monsters as a free ride, the players had no choice but to rely on their own driving skills to race against the Dust behind them through an obstacle course.

However, seeing so many players ahead enjoying free rides on giant monsters, these players who had to rely on their own driving skills were extremely dissatisfied; eventually, this dissatisfaction fermented on the World Channel, and the players on the ground went mad.

They began to unite and launch attacks on the large monsters. This forced more people to join them and attack other giant monsters together.

The information on the World Channel scrolled constantly, filled almost entirely with various insults. After watching for a while, Zhao Yuxin switched to the Player Group Channel, where members were constantly expressing their gratitude to her and Zhu Zhiquan.

Gomolaiyin Haken: "Thank you to the Regiment Leader and Deputy Regiment Leader for issuing the orders, allowing me and my brothers to temporarily escape the pursuit of that group of people behind us!"

Lv Yang: "It's a good thing we have two wise leaders, otherwise we would surely have ended up like them at some point."

Ling Xi: "Everyone, please don't be happy too soon; we still don't know when the Dust will disappear."

"This means that at any moment, we may face the same fate as them—being killed by the crazed players behind us or having our mounts destroyed, forcing us to race through the beast tide relying on our own driving skills just like them."

Xintamu Haken: "Then what do you suggest we do? We can't just let them continue to run rampant like this!"

Ling Xi: "I believe we need to provide suitable weapons for the players on the monsters, such as landmines, bombs, and so on."

Seeing the message Ling Xi sent provided Zhao Yuxin with a new line of thought, so she sent: "Ling Xi is right. As it happens, I do have two types of products that are quite suitable. If any of you have anything else appropriate, send it over for us to see."

Soon, others posted the weapons they had; the types were basically consumables like landmines, time bombs, and traps.

But one member named Liu Fuqing provided an item that Zhao Yuxin thought very highly of.

Name: Flying Chainsaw

Quality: Purple

Introduction: A logging tool capable of flying freely, able to cut a giant tree that reaches the clouds in half in a very short time; of course, you can also use it to kill a target.

Zhao Yuxin looked at the picture of the Flying Chainsaw and was more satisfied the more she looked at it. She saw that the Flying Chainsaw in the picture had something like a thruster underneath, and the saw teeth looked incredibly sharp.

Zhao Yuxin called Zhu Zhiquan over and had him look at this Flying Chainsaw. Then Zhu Zhiquan asked with a confused expression: "Why are you admiring this chainsaw?"

Zhao Yuxin was so angry she punched him, "Are you stupid? With this, not only can we increase the speed of resource acquisition, but it also allows everyone to use this chainsaw to create suitable terrain, which can help in shaking off the interference from ground players."

"Oh, whatever you say. Anyway, you handle this matter; I'm going to improve my own strength." After saying this, Zhu Zhiquan turned and left, his eyes filled only with the obsession to become stronger.

"What a blockhead!" After complaining, Zhao Yuxin looked at the Player Group Channel and sent: "Alright, next I am going to set some rules."

"First, everyone list some weapons and equipment that can help in shaking off pursuit."

"Second, we will build hype together on the World Channel. After attracting enough attention, we will delist a large batch of weapons to create the illusion of a best-seller, driving the players' enthusiasm for consumption."

"The final step is for me to sell a favor to stimulate the players' enthusiasm for consumption, while you all join me in privately receiving every customer. How about we make a big profit together?"

Most people had no objections, but only Qin Luosheng raised a doubt: "Regiment Leader, why don't we just trade on the Trading Channel at the end, but instead insist on private trading?"

"That's a good question." Zhao Yuxin couldn't help but give Qin Luosheng a like, "The reason we aren't listing them directly on the Trading Channel is due to the following points."

"First: This can create a sense of urgency, making players willing to purchase at a higher price."

"Second: The features of this batch of weapons are all defensive, focused on consumption and delay. Currently, the players who want these weapons most are those in the giant monster group."

"In order to have a suitable free ride, they will definitely be willing to buy, but those players on the ground definitely won't want them to be able to buy them, so they will certainly snatch them up."

"And in order to ensure that the buyers are definitely players on the monsters, it must be a one-on-one offline purchase."

Qin Luosheng sent again: "But wouldn't selling to players on the ground yield more profit? Then why not sell this type of weapon to them?"

Zhao Yuxin explained patiently: "Doing that would indeed yield more profit, but have you thought about it?"

"If we sell products without a bottom line, leading to a sharp increase in the player mortality rate, who will we sell our goods to next? Besides, these players also have their own parents and relatives; if they die, who will take care of their families?"

"Yes, business is very important, but some things are more important than business. Without these, even if a person can achieve great success, the final result will be to be reviled by the world!"

Qin Luosheng: "I understand."

"Alright then, everyone get ready to make a big profit." Zhao Yuxin united all members to list the existing weapons, while some members conducted promotions on the World Channel, providing players with effective plans to intercept the players in the rear.

The result immediately ignited the players' enthusiasm, so much so that before Zhao Yuxin and the others could even delist them to create a trend of panic-buying, the weapons they listed were all sold out.

Seeing the players so enthusiastic, Zhao Yuxin prepared to tell everyone to wait for her signal before listing more.

At this time, Lv Yang sent a message: "Regiment Leader, many weapons that don't belong to us have suddenly been listed on the Trading Channel. We should sell our goods sooner, otherwise the benefits will all be taken by others!"

"No rush, just watch how I perform." Zhao Yuxin tucked her hair and sent to the World Channel, "Attention, players on the monsters!"

"In order to allow everyone to better enjoy a free ride on your respective monsters, our Bamboo Creek Association Player Group has decided to specifically provide you with landmines, traps, and other equipment."

"But now, most of the products have been snatched up by players on the ground, resulting in many players on the monsters not being able to buy our products."

"Therefore, we have decided to conduct one-on-one online sales to ensure that more players on free rides can guarantee that the monsters beneath them will not be harmed."

"So, our Player Group members will now reveal their screen names, and then we ask the players on free rides to take a photo and find the screen names of our Bamboo Creek Association members to trade."

Huahua: "That's great, hurry up and reveal yourselves! I don't want the giant elephant beneath me to be killed, otherwise I'll have to run for my life just like the monsters beneath me!"

Moon Over Wannan: "Hurry up, post all your screen names! The monsters beneath us have already been harassed by that bunch of lunatics!"

Flying Speed Driver: "Hmph, all of you in Bamboo Creek Association, just wait for me; don't let us catch you!"
