Chapter 251: Tipping Point

Shop expansion was almost the default task in Fang Qi's System Interface.

The target for this task: A full house.

Fang Qi glanced at the data and found that the average computer utilization rate was 70% and barely reached a full house at peak hours in Jiuhua City's Shop. In Half City's Shop that had a little more than 100 computers, there were only about 60 to 70 customers, which meant that the utilization rate was only a little bit better than 50%

It seems that I don't have to worry about the issue of shop expansion in the short term, Fang Qi thought. Of course, he didn't know how naïve his thoughts were.

...

The number of the players of the Legend of Mir 2 grew gradually. For example, the disciples of Shengjing Academy and Xiyi Academy were suppressed in the old games by the disciples of Lingyun Academy, and they thought that the new game might give them a chance to turn the tides around.

In the new game, everyone was on the same starting line, and they didn't have to worry about being at a disadvantage!

They showed more interest in the new game than the old players and had begun playing it on the first day. Moreover, they had more luck than Gong He, who was killed by others viciously and dropped his items while he was at a low level.

Also, they had discovered the pattern and uniqueness of this game while they played. Despite the greater speed of cultivation strength growth in this game compared with the single-player games, they had to fight with others over monsters and make money, which slowed down their speed of growth to the same level as the single-player games.

"Royal Sister..." The Second Prince was now a little warrior who was wearing sky blue light armor. The members of Royal Team were among the earliest players, and they were all above level 10 by now since they didn't encounter other malicious players.

Ji Wu also chose the profession of warrior, and they were now fighting monsters and leveling up in the Viper Valley. Led by the royal masters, Ji Wu's level got close to average and reached level 10.

In the early stage of the game when everyone was an ordinary person, the warriors had an advantage of knowing some combat techniques, and some players also knew close-range combat skills and could use it in the game. It was why the warriors had the least worry about money among all three professions in the early stage of the game.

Despite all this, they still found that they were short in funds.

The only reason that they had money to buy potions and fight more powerful monsters was that a few of them went hunting yesterday and got a lot of animal meat. Obviously, they desperately needed money.

What could they do now? Go hunting? Since their levels were much higher than the animals, they didn't get that many experience points from killing them.

To rob others? As the majestic Royal Family of Dajin, they couldn't lower themselves to become bandits.

"Maybe... we can go and buy some coins with crystals?" Royal Princess Ji Yu lifted her exquisite chin while pondering, and this idea dawned on her.

"The problem is that everyone needs money to buy potions and kill more powerful monsters to level up. Who will sell coins to us?!" The Second Prince didn't think this method was plausible since none of the players in the new game were poor.

The ones who were short on money would play the old games and see if the new game was worth the money.

Ji Wu said thoughtfully, "I'll summon a few teams of guards from the Royal Palace."
