Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

"Of course it's different!"

Fang Yi's lips curled up slightly as he explained, "Reward points are assets without any constraints; they can be exchanged for any item."

"Merit points cannot be traded; they can only be exchanged for pottery jars at mission points, and they will be automatically cleared every thirty days, so they cannot be stored for a long time."

The white-haired loli felt even stranger, her eyes widening as she exclaimed, "The types of items are restricted, we can't buy them freely, and there's even a time limit? Have the players lost their minds? They're actually using precious materials that can be directly sold for reward points to exchange for merit points?"

"Because it's cheap!"

Fang Yi said matter-of-factly, "After the game update, the drop rate of equipment and skill scrolls has increased, so the Reincarnation Pottery Jars sold in the store are naturally not selling well."

"Most players would rather grind than buy expensive random pottery jars."

"However, the merit pottery jars sold at mission points are very affordable, especially compared to the pottery jars in the mall. They are like bargain items with a significant discount."

"The only downside is that you can't use reward points to buy it; you need merit points after completing the tasks of repairing the city wall and exploring the Dead Soul Mountain Range."

The issue of the expiration date of merit points is also easy to solve; just spend them all before they expire, right?

What if I don't spend it all?

Then you can't blame the game merchants for being unscrupulous; you can only blame the players for not managing their redemption time properly.

Just like the informed consent form you choose before logging into a game, if players complain that there's too much content and don't want to read it, they can't blame us game developers afterwards.

Chapter 41 Undercurrent

"I can already smell the experience capsules, they smell so tempting."

Tsunade clasped her hands together and muttered a prayer.

Five skills pottery jars.

Even with the worst luck, you should still be able to get an experience capsule, right?

Of course, if you can unlock a top-tier skill, that's also a huge win.

She bought an intermediate-level skill pottery jar, which has a relatively high probability of yielding a green skill, a small probability of yielding a blue skill, and an almost impossible probability of yielding a purple skill.

"call!"

A fair hand reached into the pottery jar, nervously exploring.

Under Tsunade's expectant gaze, a purple light burst forth.

【Experience Capsule (Purple)】: Increases skill experience by 500 points upon use.

"very good!"

Tsunade took a deep breath and clenched her fists tightly.

She never expected that the first pottery jar would yield a purple item, and it was the experience capsule she wanted.

Chase after victory.

The mysterious game merchant had told her that luck is like a surging tide, with its highest and lowest points.

We are currently at our peak.

The purple-blue light flickered continuously.

The remaining four pottery jars yielded two purple items and two blue items.

Hammer of Repentance (Purple), Blessing of Heaven (Purple), Experience Capsule (Blue)*2

City Wall Mission Point

The other players around were dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes.

"Is she crazy? It's flashing purple light continuously. Did she buy a top-grade ceramic jar?"

"A top-tier pottery jar worth five thousand merit points—who could afford that? I saw it clearly; she opened a mid-tier pottery jar!"

"Wait, how could it be her?!"

"who is she?"

Players who witnessed Tsunade winning the grand prize couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

Among them was a gambler who frequently bought ceramic pots. Upon seeing Tsunade's face, his expression immediately turned strange. He said, "I don't know who she is either. It's said that she's a ninja in real life, and seems to be quite close to Konoha Village. The most crucial thing is..."

I couldn't say anything more.

He often saw Tsunade, crowding under the bulletin board, spending money to take on daily tasks in exchange for pottery jars.

But the results were all poor.

The low-level ceramic jar, which has a high probability of yielding white items, only yielded inferior gray materials for Tsunade.

She could only get white items from the intermediate-level pottery jar, which had a high probability of yielding green items.

An explosion of bad luck is almost comparable to that of the fat sheep that often roams Tanabata Street.

Unexpectedly, they've turned their fortunes around and are now making a fortune.

The flashing blue-purple light seemed to possess some indescribable magic, stimulating the nerves of the players present.

"I want to buy it too!"

"Quickly go find the merchant and buy two hundred merit points worth of city wall materials!"

While ordinary players are still hesitating,

The wealthy noble player had already instructed his companions to find a merchant to purchase materials.

Even the merchants who resell materials were somewhat bewildered when they suddenly received large orders.

"What's going on? Are the five great ninja villages about to start a war?"

Some small business owners who didn't have enough stockpiled materials were jumping up and down in frustration as orders slipped away.

The big businessmen who bought the warehouses were overjoyed after receiving large orders.

Backpack space is limited.

To stockpile a large amount of materials, you need to purchase a warehouse; a level 1 warehouse requires 5,000 reward points.

Some merchants, after purchasing warehouses, suspected they had overpaid, but suddenly felt fortunate when large material orders suddenly appeared.

The merchants speculated, "Is some powerful organization cultivating casual players?"

When they learned that a player had incredible luck, opening three purple and two blue items and sparking a surge in merit points, they looked at each other in bewilderment.

Even the usually cautious among them couldn't help but feel envious.

Based on the price, that's over 100,000 reward points!

No wonder it caused such a sensation.

"How could this be?"

Tsunade's expression was not good; she showed no joy whatsoever after winning the grand prize.

My luck is off the charts...

Whenever this happens, it foreshadows something bad happening and befalling you.

The deaths of Nawaki and Dan, the decline of the Senju family...

After a long silence,

Tsunade pondered: could the source of the impending misfortune be the village?

Although he had long since left Konoha and was no longer a ninja, he was still the culmination of Hashirama's grandfather and his clan's efforts, so it was impossible for him to completely let go of it.

Leave the game and return to reality.

The place where Tsunade and the others were staying was a luxuriously decorated inn.

Since becoming a player of the reincarnation game, all my assets have been emptied out and invested in the game, but I am not short of money in real life.

Selling some materials and low-level equipment at random would be enough to cover the fees that Silent used to charge for treating nobles.

"Tsunade-sama."

Holding Tsunade's baby, Shizune, and carrying dinner, she returned to the inn and saw Tsunade sitting cross-legged on the bed.

Tsunade usually plays games until the early hours of the morning. Could something have happened?

"Jingyin, the tender chicken here isn't good."

While savoring the tender and delicious chicken, Tsunade suddenly said.

Shizune said helplessly, "That's because you, Lady Tsunade, were so engrossed in the game that you missed mealtime. The tender chicken definitely won't taste good if it's been out of the pot for too long!"

"Yes, food shouldn't be left out of the pot for too long, and the same goes for people."

Tsunade finished the last piece of tender chicken and sighed, "Shizune, come back to Konoha with me. I'm craving some of the village's sake."

……

The country of earth, the village of Iwagakure.

The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, sat solemnly at the head of the council chamber.

The two rows of seats under his command were occupied by the village's high-ranking officials, including the heads of various clans and elite Jonin with outstanding strength.

Everyone looked at the person in the head seat with a mixture of tension and anticipation.

The short old man in front of me had a warrior's topknot from the Warring States period. He was not good-looking and had a large, bulbous nose that looked quite comical.

But everyone looked at him with a mixture of admiration and respect.

This warrior, who served the longest term and lived through both the era of war and the era of the ninja village, possessed terrifying power that surpassed the bloodline limit.

He was a hero who single-handedly trained countless elite Iwagakure ninjas and created the village's golden age. Even in his old age, he still possessed admirable ambition.

Onoki slowly spoke, "Have you had any contact with Kumogakure?"

Sitting at the end of the table, a resolute-looking ninja named Huang Tu nodded and said, "I have already spoken with the Fourth Raikage's secretary. He conveyed the Raikage's decision to join forces with us to test Konoha Village."

He was a player chosen by the game of reincarnation, a level 13 monk who followed a defensive build.

In reality, he possesses powerful Earth Release ninjutsu capable of tearing the earth apart.
