Chapter 118 - Has It Been Bled Dry?
"Guys, I"m gonna go check it out!"
A fellow named Smith, who took the lead in spending 30 pieces of wood, completed the Charm Stone Woman loan with Klein.
"Isn"t it just a rock? I don"t believe I won"t last 15 minutes!"
After Smith succeeded in borrowing money, he still talked big in the group.
All the girls ran away.
This topic was a little shameful.
"Smith, take it easy. Be careful of your eggs."
"Hahaha, the description of the Charm Stone Woman is a little awesome. I wonder if that"s true?"
"Is Smith still watching? Send a message back."
"Smith?"
In the regional channel, no matter how many people called out to him, Smith was gone.
Klein smiled.
Smith must have been attracted to it by now.
How could an old cow plowing the fields pay any attention to you!?
[System notification: Excellent Gas Mask-1]
[System notification: Transaction completed. Wind Rune+2, Water Rune+1. Earth Rune+1, Silver+2, Crystal+2, Animal Skin+2.]
The number of gas masks that Klein put up was constantly decreasing.
When players bought them, they had to satisfy the combination of 2 wind runes and 2 other runes.
The production of gas masks consumed a large number of wind runes, so it had to be balanced in this way.
In less than a few minutes, the gas masks were sold out.
Klein made another 100 and put them up for sale again.
In the world channel, a bunch of people were discussing the gas masks.
Most of them believed that the chalcedony that Klein had previously purchased was also used to make gas masks.
However, there were also some who disagreed.
This was because the price Klein offered didn"t include the chalcedony. Furthermore, it was purchased in batches.
For the time being, no one knew.
In the regional channel, everyone was more concerned about the Charm Stone Woman.
Fifteen minutes had pa.s.sed.
The Charm Stone Woman appeared in the regional channel again.
"Smith, how was the experience?"
"Smith, come out and say something. Does it increase your strength?"
The regional members urged one after another.
After half a minute, Smith"s message appeared.
"I"m sorry, it"s a little embarra.s.sing. I only lasted for three minutes. I wasn"t like this in the past! It was really... too enchanting! What can I do? Let"s continue. Everyone, right now, we"re lying in the base and don"t want to move. We"re thinking about life. Why on earth would we make such an absurd move..."
Everyone was talking nonsense.
Drained?
The regional channel fell silent.
"Big Brother Klein, can I do it again? Just once, not much!"
Smith spoke again.
If this could be recorded, he would probably have to kneel on the ground and beg.
"Play happily. Refuse to be addicted."
Klein responded coldly.
It was precisely because he knew about the attraction that he was set to 15 minutes. They were only allowed to exchange it once a day.
It was equivalent to the game"s anti-addiction system.
Smith had just finished, so he was still a little infatuated.
After waiting for the sage for a little longer, about half an hour, Charm Stone Woman"s influence would completely disappear.
Smith"s performance was too strange, so the second person did not appear for a long time.
After a few more minutes, Smith gradually calmed down and explained the entire experience.
From the touch to the attraction, and then to the final effect...
"My strength must have increased. In order to become stronger, I will come here once a day."
Smith"s legitimate excuse.
When everyone heard that the experience was not bad, a second player soon appeared.
His performance was almost the same as Smith"s.
"Great, I feel that my strength has increased. Awesome!"
Word of mouth spread.
After many people tried it, it obtained their nickname, "Juicer".
As for whether or not their strength had increased, it was nothing more than an excuse for them to do so openly.
Klein was well aware of this, so he didn"t expose them.
The gas masks were constantly sold, manufactured, and put on shelves.
The demand for them was huge in the entire market.
Only after selling more than a thousand of them did the sales speed decrease significantly.
Furthermore, a compet.i.tor had appeared!
Someone had put up a batch of Ordinary Gas Masks.
The effect wasn"t as good as an Excellent Gas Mask, but the advantage was that the price was affordable. It could be bought with 2 runes.
For most people, it was currently more suitable to use items that were of high quality and cheap price.
The Excellent Gas Masks were more targeted at a group of high-end players.
No matter what.
Klein made a huge profit by relying on the gas masks.
With just the use of four elemental runes, the total number had exceeded four thousand.
On the third floor of the runic base.
Klein sat cross-legged on a futon.
After the base was upgraded, the third floor was planned to be a training hall with a futon.
By sitting on it, one could quickly enter a state of cogitation.
Klein had just made a comparison, and the futon had a significant improvement effect.
He thought for a moment before saying, "Imagine yourself as a bright moon, suspended high in the sky, emitting a l.u.s.ter that is boldness."
Klein"s mind gradually became empty.
Unknowingly, he felt his body float into the air.
After a moment, he no longer realized that he was a human.
Instead, he was a full moon.
Below him were mountains and rivers. The moonlight sprinkled down, creating a peaceful scene.
Half an hour pa.s.sed.
"My soul power has indeed increased."
Klein woke up from his meditation.
Furthermore, his mental state was extremely good, and his brain was even clearer.
He came to the balcony.
He used the Eagle Eye Spell.
His vision suddenly improved.
He could clearly see the sand more than thirty meters away.
Klein returned to the training hall, took out the chalcedony and some runes, and lowered his head to create an enchantment.
