Civilization Paradise

Chapter 21 Organizing
Inside the rental house.

After finishing the rest of his instant noodles, Long Ming picked up his phone to check his balance, which showed he only had 5710 mountain coins left.

His monthly expenses for medicine alone amount to 12000 mountain coins, and the remaining amount is simply not enough.

Long Ming sighed softly and walked towards the bedroom.

He walked to the bedside, picked up the helmet and put it back on, then lay down.

"Whoo~"

Long Ming took a deep breath, then raised his hand to press the start switch, and then closed his eyes.

To be honest, this game has given Long Ming some psychological trauma.

When Long Ming opened his eyes again, he was already in Star City.

He immediately looked up the bracelet interface and saw a red dot on the task log icon.

Long Ming directly opened the task log.

Hint: Survival (Newbie Mission) complete, you have received 500 One-Dimensional Coins.

After glancing at it, Long Ming began to tally up the rewards from this dungeon run.

Gold Dog Head (White), Rough Necklace (White), Unknown Ring (Blue), Gold Short Staff (Purple), Gold Double-Barreled Short Gun, M24 Sniper Rifle, Perception Potion*1, Invitation*1, 500 1-Dimensional Coins.

Long Ming looked at the tallied profits and showed a satisfied expression.

Although he threw away a lot of things, he still had quite a few left. He just didn't know how much profit these things could bring him, as he was currently very short of money.

Just then, a series of cursing sounds came from behind.

"Damn, what kind of crappy game is this? It's so realistic!"

"Waaah, it's so scary, it hurts so much!"

"I strongly demand a reduction in pain, or I will file a complaint!"

Long Ming turned his head and saw a group of players gathered together, angrily denouncing the game.

Just then, several players from the City of Sin passed by, heard their complaints, and retorted with a cold laugh.

"A bunch of idiots, if you can't handle it, don't play."

"Who are you talking about? We are defending our legitimate rights. This game is obviously problematic. I feel like I'm actually dead."

"Defend your legitimate rights? I think you're out of your mind. It's clearly written that this game is meant to let you experience the thrill of death. If you don't want to die, then evacuate alive!"

"We're not experts, we don't have that kind of technology, and where else can we find writing?"

"There are notes on the Civilization Experience Ticket, but I didn't read them carefully."

"what!"

The protesting players were also stunned.

Long Ming looked thoughtful upon seeing this.

In fact, these people's protests are not entirely without reason. Because the game is so realistic, if the evacuation fails, the experience of death can cause certain psychological trauma, which not everyone can bear.

However, this has nothing to do with him. Others may choose to give up because of setbacks, but he has no choice. If he can't make money in this game, his survival will be in jeopardy.

Long Ming took a deep breath, quickly adjusted his mindset, and turned to look around.

He now needs to convert what he has into game currency or mountain currency.

However, at a glance, there was no one setting up a stall to buy or sell.

However, he saw many people walking towards the obelisk in the center of Star City.

After thinking for a moment, Long Ming followed.

As he approached, he saw many players standing under the mechanical pillars, heads down, clicking on their wristbands.

At this moment, a notification popped up on Long Ming's bracelet.

"Open the store?"

Upon seeing the notification, Long Ming immediately understood why so many people were gathered there.

However, he did not open the store immediately. Instead, he opened the friends interface and tried to add Gu Yi as a friend.

Although he brought the items himself, he wouldn't have been able to escape safely without Gu Yi and the others' cooperation. In a sense, they were his teammates, so it wouldn't be appropriate for him to keep everything for himself.

The bracelet interface then displays a message indicating that the addition was successful.

A chat window popped up immediately. "Holy crap, you're amazing! You actually added me as a friend. I've wanted to add you for a while, but your name was just too long, and I couldn't remember it."

Gu Yi sent a series of messages with great joy.

"Um, that."

Long Ming didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Oh, you don't need to say it, I understand. If it's gone, it's gone."

Gu Yi could tell at a glance that Long Ming's escape had failed and he had been killed. But that was to be expected, given that Zheng Bin and his gang were exceptionally disgusting.

"No, I brought the things out with me."

"You brought it out? You successfully evacuated?"

Gu Yi was completely dumbfounded, his face filled with disbelief.

"Correct!"

Long Ming replied calmly.

"Awesome! No wonder you're a master! Haha!"

Gu Yi was overjoyed. Long Ming had actually managed to escape. He could imagine how angry Zheng Bin and his gang must be.

"I added you as a friend because I wanted to talk to you about the things I brought out. Although you told me you gave them to me, you also have a share of those things."

Long Ming explained the situation directly to Gu Yi.

"Oh, we don't need those things, you can have them all."

"Isn't this appropriate?"

"If there's anything wrong, and it really doesn't work out, we can meet in the dungeon next time, and you can bring your brother along again."

Gu Yi replied very generously.

Long Ming fell silent. To be honest, his instinct was to refuse, but he was indeed short of money, so he replied.

"Ok."

"Okay, it's settled then. I have to go offline now, I have something to do."

"it is good."

Long Ming closed the chat interface, then opened the store, and the consignment interface immediately popped up.

The display was filled with a dazzling array of various goods.

A white, round pearl necklace.

Price: 500 One-Dimensional Coins.

Gargoyle bronze statue (white)

Price: 800 One-Dimensional Coins.

Long Ming was also quite surprised when he saw the items listed on the consignment page.

I never expected that so much would be produced in just two days.

Long Ming kept scrolling through the interface to see if any of the items on consignment matched what he had, so he could also confirm the current market price.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and Long Ming searched for a long time but couldn't find it.

Moreover, each of these consigned items is like a unique piece, with such a wide variety that it's dazzling.

At that moment, Long Ming suddenly heard a player next to him complaining to his companion.

"Damn it, what's going on? I've been consigning this item for a whole day and it still hasn't sold. Doesn't this game have any whales?"

"Hey bro, what are you selling?"

"Jewelry."

"Are you stupid? Jewelry is art. Why would you consign it? To a ghost?"

"No, this is something I painstakingly brought out. Isn't it worthless?"

"It's valuable, but the problem is it's not very useful to players. Would you buy it?"

"If I don't buy it, what should I do?"
