PDLP Chapter 33 Pay-to-win players are not to be trifled with.
Chapter 33 Pay-to-win players are not to be trifled with.
The air seemed to freeze on the training field.
It was a deathly silence, a mixture of shock, doubt, and greed.
All the adventurers' eyes were fixed on Chen You, as if they wanted to see through him inside and out.
The fact that a single sword strike could instantly kill an elite LV10 garrison was already enough to overturn their understanding of the world.
Now, this guy who looks like he's only LV5 and has terrible gear actually dares to face the LV10 orc warrior Kag head-on, and even says he missed his chance?
Kag's rage was so intense it seemed he was about to spew real flames from his large nostrils.
His bulging muscles trembled violently with rage, emitting a grinding sound like steel rubbing together.
"What did you say? You little bug, say it again!"
Kag took a step forward, and the ground trembled.
He grinned maliciously, revealing a mouthful of fangs.
"You think I can't do anything to you just because you have newbie protection?"
"The newbie protection will eventually end, and I'll show you what true despair is!"
He was very confident; LV10 versus LV5, that was an absolute level advantage.
As long as the opponent dares to attack first, the moment the novice protection fails, he can tear this arrogant human to shreds.
However, Chen You simply looked at him quietly, without the slightest fear in his eyes.
Instead, it carried a hint of... pity?
"I don't care if you insult me."
Chen You suddenly spoke, his voice not loud, but clearly reaching the ears of everyone present.
"But insulting my civilization is unacceptable."
He remembered Li Guoan's serious face and the countless expectant eyes in the command center.
The country spent so much money, not to let me suffer the wrath of some brute from another world.
It's not about making him do things himself, like a clueless greenhorn, wasting his precious 30-day newbie protection period.
If Director Li knew he had done this, he would probably be so angry that he would be carried away on the spot.
Some things don't necessarily require you to do them yourself.
Power comes in many forms.
Chen You's gaze swept over the adventurers around him, each with their own unique expression.
He had found something strange about the auction house before.
Materials that are priceless on Earth may only cost a few silver coins here.
A level 10 purple equipment that would take an average player a long time to acquire is priced at only two or three gold coins.
The tasks he completed only rewarded him with experience and reputation, without giving him a single copper coin.
What does this tell us?
This illustrates that in the underlying ecosystem of this world, gold coins are an extremely scarce form of hard currency.
Although the reason for this is still unknown, it is undoubtedly an opportunity.
A brand new, bold, and crazy idea instantly took shape in Chen You's mind.
He looked at the enraged Kag, and that cruel smile reappeared on his lips.
He slowly raised his hand, not to draw his sword, but to extend an index finger toward Kag.
"Everyone."
Chen You's voice rang out again. This time, he used a trace of spiritual power to make his voice resonate throughout the entire training ground.
"I'm getting annoyed by this guy's mouth."
"Whoever goes up there can smash it to pieces."
He paused, and under the breathless gaze of everyone, he uttered a sentence that would be recorded in the history of Zhaocheng.
"I'll offer... ten gold coins."
Upon hearing this, the training ground fell into an instant silence.
All the adventurers seemed to be frozen in place, as if struck by a spell.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Then, a deep humming sound erupted from the crowd, like a boulder being thrown into a calm lake, instantly creating towering waves.
"Ten gold coins?!"
"Did I hear that right? Ten gold coins?!"
"My God! This is enough for me to get a top-tier LV10 set! And I'd even have some left over!"
Greed, shock, fervor... a mix of emotions clung to the faces of the adventurers.
The way they looked at Kag was no longer that of a powerful warrior of the same LV10 level, but rather that of a glittering, walking treasure trove!
Kag was also stunned for a moment, and then a chill ran from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head.
He sensed the sudden change in the gazes of the adventurers around him; those gazes no longer held fear, but were replaced by naked desire.
He couldn't help but feel a little flustered, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"You...you want to be enemies with my world, Ella?!"
Kag shouted loudly, trying to intimidate these money-blinded guys with the power behind him.
"He's just a short guy from some backward civilization!"
"There's no way he could possibly produce ten gold coins!"
Kag's roar did not have the desired effect.
The adventurers' desire for gold coins had not diminished, but his questioning did cause them to hesitate slightly.
After all, ten gold coins is no small amount, and nobody wants to offend a level 10 orc warrior for nothing if it turns out to be a worthless promise.
As Chen You watched Kag's desperate attempt to escape, the cold smile on his lips grew even more pronounced.
"Oh? I don't have any gold coins?"
He asked in a soft voice, his tone slightly playful.
He didn't waste any words, nor did he bother to argue.
With a thought, a system interface that only he could see instantly unfolded before Chen You's eyes.
"I think it was in a social setting..."
Chen You muttered to himself, tapping his finger lightly.
My Bounty
The interface then redirected to display his personal bounty panel.
[Issuing a Bounty]
He clicked again.
Editing complete. A dialog box pops up: [Bounty Target: Orc Warrior Kag.]
[Bounty: Defeat him and render him speechless (lasts 1 hour).]
[Bounty Reward: 10 Gold Coins]
[Is the release confirmed?]
Chen You chose "yes" without hesitation.
【Ding! 】
A crisp system notification suddenly rang out in the air above the training ground.
The sound didn't just echo in Chen You's ears; it resonated in a peculiar way, penetrating the training ground's barrier and spreading throughout the entire Zhaocheng!
Immediately afterwards, a golden announcement, like a divine decree, materialized in the sky above Zhaocheng, its power so great that it seemed to be heard by the entire world.
[Announcement from Zhaocheng!]
[New bounty missions have been issued!]
[Bounty Target: Orc Warrior Kag (LV10)!]
[Bounty: Defeat him and render him speechless (lasts 1 hour)!]
[Bounty Reward: 10 Gold Coins!]
The task poster has deposited the reward into the system's escrow account; it will be released immediately upon successful completion of the task!
The global announcement spread rapidly outwards from Zhaocheng in a ripple-like pattern, reaching every corner of the city in an instant.
Everyone saw the golden announcement and heard the powerful announcement.
Zhaocheng was in an uproar because of this sudden bounty!
On the training ground, all the adventurers stared blankly at the golden announcement in the sky, then turned their gazes to Chen You.
Shock, awe, fervor, greed... a mixture of emotions made Chen You's figure appear like a god.
"Gold coins...there really are gold coins!"
"And it's ten gold coins! Guaranteed by the system!"
"Who on earth is he? He just threw away ten gold coins?!"
Kag's face turned from blue to white, and then from white to purple.
His body was stiff, and his eyes were filled with unbelievable fear.
He never dreamed that this low-level player, whom he regarded as a "shorty," could so easily push him into the abyss!
Ten gold coins are enough to drive countless low-level adventurers crazy.
A wave of fervent gazes fell upon Kag, as if they were tangible.
He was no longer the proud warrior of the world of Aila, but a huge, moving piece of fat.
Chen You withdrew his gaze and looked at Kage, a playful smile on his face.
"Now, do you still think I can't produce gold coins?"
His voice was soft, yet it struck Kag's heart like a heavy hammer.
Kag opened his mouth, but found his throat so dry that he couldn't make a sound.
He felt the burning gazes of the adventurers around him, gazes that seemed to melt him, gazes that no longer held any hesitation, but were filled with pure hunting instinct.
He's finished.
At that moment, Kag suddenly remembered Chen You's calm words from before:
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't do it."
Chen You glanced at Kage's expression, which resembled that of a stray dog, and sneered inwardly.
This was only for Kag, but also for all the alien players who looked down on Chinese civilization.
A small but impactful moment.
A figure shot out of the crowd like an arrow.
He was a lithe werewolf warrior with a gleaming desire for gold coins in his eyes.
"Kag! Prepare to die!"
