Although it is a bit embarrassing to say it, the organization "Little Bugs Have Big Ideals" is really poor.
In fact, almost all the players in Gensokyo are poor.
Gensokyo is a strange world. Although there are many residents here, there are almost no jobs that can make money - working for monsters can gain experience points and gain their favor; working for humans can gain experience points and gifts...
Well, there is no money.
Most of the tasks in Gensokyo cannot be rewarded with money.
But to live well in Gensokyo, money is indispensable.
Although the most primitive method of bartering can also be used, at least the rent and other things are only cash.
cash.
"So where does the cash come from?" Cheng Peng asked curiously, "Can I exchange it with universal points?"
Yuan Jiumu shook his head like a rattle, making Cheng Peng worried whether he would knock his head off.
Universal points are extremely precious. Except for a few losers, almost no one will use them to exchange for game currency. Players in Gensokyo usually obtain money through the following three ways -
The most common thing is to work for the residents of Gensokyo. Generally speaking, after the labor work is completed, it is possible to receive a small amount of money. This situation is most common among the residents of the human world. Although this little money is
It's a sigh of relief - because the residents will use physical goods as their main reward, and no matter how they negotiate, they will not increase the proportion of coins in the reward.
The second, safer way to make money is to defeat monsters that attack humans - the so-called "monsters" here are not "there is only one existence for each race" as Sidis and the others call them, but simply refer to those supernatural creatures that can harm humans.
Humans in the human world are much weaker than monsters, and it is common for them to be attacked when they go out. Therefore, it is often necessary to recruit warriors to defeat these things that will harm human life. This money is not easy to make.
, because the enemies are often very strong, players can only rely on crowd tactics to fight monster barrage. But this money is easy to make, because as long as you dare to fight and fight, anyone can earn this kind of money.
And the residents of the human world are very happy to pay for such things.
The third way to make money is a little more vague, which is to collect various special things and sell them to the owner of Korindo, Morichika Rinosuke. This legendary NPC is an avatar NPC designed by Zun, the founder of Gensokyo, and seems to have an endless supply of money.
Financial resources, as long as he is satisfied with your things, he will definitely pay you a reward - the problem is that the amount of the reward is completely determined by his degree of satisfaction. As for the standard of his satisfaction, that is really "only God knows"
.
All of you who are "little bugs with big ideals" are from the insect class. Residents in the human world will never invite monsters to work for them, so for them, the first way is basically unworkable, and the second way is basically impossible.
They did try, but in the end, they were all wiped out by just one ostrich that devours pedestrians at night. If Sidis hadn't come to save them, they would have all ended up in the ostrich's belly.
In the conscience of heaven and earth, the otozo is just a monster that is ranked very low on the list of enemies in the human world and is said to be "not too difficult to deal with"...
After this blow, the little bugs finally understood that the second way was not feasible, so they had no choice but to give up and rely on the third way to make money.
The problem is that there are many players in Gensokyo!
Although some messy gadgets are often spawned in the wild, there are an astonishing number of players scavenging, and little bugs rarely get good things that can be sold for money, so the accumulation of cash has always been slow.
"But what do you need money for?" Cheng Peng asked, "Do you also need to stay in a hotel?"
Even if they wanted to stay, they wouldn't dare to let monsters stay in a hotel in the human world...
The fireflies looked at each other and sighed in unison.
"We are building a camp. Building a camp requires consuming various resources, and cash is one of them." Yuan Jiumu said helplessly, "If there is no camp, we can only resurrect in Li Gelu's camp after death - so get rid of it."
Her control and independence have become empty words."
"Now that all other resources are almost there, there is still a big gap in money." The fat Song Shu is the accountant of the little bugs and is very familiar with the accounts. "There is still a shortage of tens of thousands!"
"How many thousand is it specifically?" Cheng Peng asked.
"Thirty-two thousand four hundred."
Cheng Peng looked at his inventory and was secretly surprised.
His cash outside Gensokyo could be equivalent to about 100 million yen, but inside Gensokyo it was only 10,000 yen.
What currency unit is used here? This foreign exchange ratio is too outrageous!
At this moment, he remembered a setting he had seen while searching for information on the Internet before coming to Gensokyo: Gensokyo lost contact with reality, around the time of the Meiji Restoration in Japan. To be precise, it should be the Meiji 18th
Year.
At that time, all currencies in the world were based on the gold standard. At that time, the position of the Japanese yen was that one yen was equivalent to 1.5 grams of gold, which was completely pure gold!
I have more than 300 taels of gold on hand. According to this ratio, it is really around 10,000 yuan...
Unfortunately, the small gold coins in the Dark World are very cheap due to their insufficient quality and high output. The exchange rate for other currencies is pitifully low. His almost four thousand gold coins were only exchanged for less than 10 taels of gold...
"It would be great if all those gold coins could be melted into gold..."
This is just a talk. Artificially melted gold is a "material" and not a "currency". Someone in the dark world has already tried it.
He sighed secretly and gave up his plan to fund these little bugs.
As we walked, the mountains were gradually left behind, and a simple village appeared at the foot of the mountains in the distance.
"Just send it here." Yuan Jiumu stopped and pointed to the village in front of him, "That's the human world. We won't go in - it's too chaotic over there."
Too messy?
When Cheng Peng entered the human world, he immediately understood what Yuan Jiumu said was "too chaotic".
There are ten independent dungeons in the human world. The ninth dungeon that he entered had the fewest people, but even so, when he looked up at the bustling and chaotic scene, he was shocked.
The village is very large, and the buildings look quite historical, in the modern Japanese style. The people coming and going in the village are dressed in a variety of ways, some in kimonos, some in armor, and some in suits and leather shoes.
, there are those wearing robes and cloaks, and there are even "naturalists" who are not wearing anything, only key parts are systematically mosaic...
If it's just that the costumes are weird, another important problem is that there are too many people here!
He made a rough estimate and found that there were at least a thousand people in the area he could see in front of him!
Thousands of people are not that big for a modern city, but for a village, thousands of people having outdoor activities is absolutely spectacular!
Not only that, he also noticed that almost every one of these people had a faint green light, and only a negligible number of them emitted blue light. Turn on the resolution setting in the safe area, and you can see that the players glow green and the NPCs glow blue.
.
Opening the system map, the area he could see was about a quarter of the entire human world. In other words, there were at least four thousand people in this dungeon. From what he saw when he selected the dungeon just now, he could roughly tell that,
There is not much difference in the number of players among the ten dungeons.
In other words, there are 40,000 players in just one "human world"!
Cheng Peng was secretly surprised. It should be noted that the entire Dynasty Warriors world only had 5,000 players when he left, while the Dark World had more players, about 7,000.
But in Gensokyo, the number of players in one main settlement alone is equivalent to more than three times the total number of players in the two worlds including Dynasty Warriors and Diablo!
The largest game world in Asia is indeed well-deserved!＼
Cheng Peng secretly praised it and walked towards the village.
After walking a few steps, a large man dressed in a flashy dress dragged him down.
"Brother, are you new here?" The giant man dressed like an Indian grabbed Cheng Peng's arm tightly. Even though he tried several times, he couldn't break free. "It's not peaceful here in Gensokyo. I'm alone."
It’s not easy to mess around!”
Cheng Peng recalled it and couldn't help but nodded.
Indeed, Sidis, a firefly who is not yet a monster, is close to her own strength, and insects are notoriously weak among monsters - how strong can those higher-level monsters be?
After all, this is an eight-star world, a world where there are super monsters that can easily suppress eight-star players!
Lu Bu, the strongest man in the Dynasty Warriors world, has five stars, and famous generals like Guan Yu can rise to four stars, but the upper limit for players is only three stars - in "Adventure", players can only have three stars at most in a certain world.
To be able to exert the strength limited to the star level in this world, for example, Cheng Peng is currently a three-star star, but if he goes to some world where his own level is only two-star, he can only exert his two-star level strength.
Generally speaking, the strength of the highest-level NPC in a world will be two stars higher than the level of this world. It is said that this setting is to ensure that players will not use small-scale crowd tactics to kill the strongest NPC in a world.
After imagining the scene of encountering a five-star monster, Cheng Peng couldn't help but sigh.
"I said, brother, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
The big man who looked like an Indian grinned, showing his white teeth.
"My name is Zhong Ziliang, and I am a member of the Petition for Protecting Flowers, Plants and Trees. Our purpose is to protect the environment, especially flowers and trees - but we usually petition with fists." He bent his left arm, showing off his figure like a bodybuilder.
Strong muscles, "Our organization has built a camp over the Sunflower Field and is currently recruiting heroes who are willing to help us fight against those guys who are deforestation..."
Cheng Peng nodded, nodded, nodded, then squatted down suddenly, turned around, took off the coat that Zhong Ziliang had grabbed, tore off the sleeves, and ran away as fast as he could.
No matter who the "Petition to Protect Flowers, Plants and Trees" is, he has no interest in working with a brother who only wears animal skins around his waist and has weird symbols painted all over his body!
