Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

Chapter 370: Chapter 200: Macro Environment_6

”Otherwise, you can sleep over at my place first and go on your shift tomorrow.”

”Feeling sorry for me?” Ding Hui blinked, but her gaze drifted towards Fang Yu’s right hand.

”I’m afraid you’ll die on the way, big sister.”

”Pfft! I’m in perfect health!”

Ding Hui seemed to get a bit angry, and when one gets angry, they get a bit more spirited. She pushed Fang Yu and strode out.

At the door, she paused and turned back to ask,

”By the way, is there anything your second sister is afraid of?”

”Huh?”

Fang Yu was a bit flustered and after thinking for a bit replied, ”Seems like she’s quite scared of everything.”

”What about spiders?”

”...What are you planning to do? Don’t go too far!”

”And what if my head suddenly fell off?”

”...Can you be normal? Don’t always do these terrifying things; I’m starting to be afraid of you.”

Ding Hui pulled down her lower eyelid with her hand, stuck out her tongue, and made a face, then turned and ran out the door.

This girl...

To say she’s reliable, she doesn’t feel that reliable.

But to say she’s not, at many times she’s like a stabilizing needle, making one feel extremely reassured.

Shaking his head slightly, Fang Yu decided not to think about her.

He went into the kitchen to make breakfast, ate something simple since his second sister wasn’t awake yet, then went back to his room, lay down next to her, and logged out of the game.

In the real world.

The morning sunlight, shining through the window, fell on the bedside, a bit dazzling to the eyes.

After stretching, Fang Yu’s stomach growled loudly.

He had just eaten in the game, but needed to eat again in reality. Even after playing the game for almost a month, he still felt a bit unaccustomed.

He turned on his phone.

Great, aside from Sister Jin’s good morning and good night messages, there weren’t any messages from anyone else.

Following routine, he replied with a good morning to Sister Jin, then started to prepare breakfast.

Last time he went to the supermarket, he had bought some frozen buns. He steamed them, boiled water to mix with soy milk powder, and that was breakfast sorted.

Beep beep.

Just then, his phone screen lit up.

He glanced at it.

It was a message from Sister Jin.

”Tomorrow my eldest sister is hosting a gathering at Tian Ding Hotel, are you coming?”

Eldest sister?

Fang Yu remembered her, the one they had gone to pick up at the airport.

He hesitated for a moment before replying to the message.

”It’s not quite appropriate, plus I’m at a critical phase in the game these next few days.”

That was a lie.

He mainly just didn’t want to go.

He was not familiar with them, why should he awkwardly attend someone else’s gathering?

When he was down and out, he didn’t even dare to go to class reunions, not that anyone invited him.

A homebody should just focus on gaming at home!

”Okay, then I won’t go either. Also, it’s almost the end of the month, you said you would treat me to a meal, haven’t you forgotten about it?”

How could he forget? He was about to browse the forums to check the gold prices.

Fang Yu now belonged to Yangshen Hall, and as his status rose, so did his salary.

Though he hadn’t been paid yet, with next month’s salary he’d become rich instantly!

That is if the gold prices remained stable...

He currently had twenty or thirty pieces of silver in his possession and certainly couldn’t throw all of it out; he needed to keep some seed money just in case.

First check the gold prices, toss out ten or so pieces of silver to exchange for money; once the salary comes next month, one hundred pieces would mean striking it rich!

Fang Yu was quite optimistic about his future prospects.

With the rise of his status and salary, everything would visibly improve.

With the current gold prices, one hundred pieces of silver were almost six hundred thousand yuan. Spending a year on this, even in a place like Jiangnan City where land is worth its weight in gold, he could buy a small fifty-square-meter apartment!

In a more suburban area, he could even afford to pay in full.

Not to mention with the game becoming more and more popular, gold prices should bounce back, rather than keep falling.

”Seize this opportunity, and pay in full for an apartment in Jiangnan City!”

Fang Yu set a small goal for himself.

Since earnings come and go unpredictably, Fang Yu didn’t have the confidence to take on a mortgage. Paying in full would be safer; after all, making money was the ultimate goal.

He heard that those in the Foolish Underworld would even loot the common people during their missions. Later he could learn a trick or two from these crafty veterans; making money would be a breeze.

As for treating Sister Jin to a meal.

”I haven’t forgotten, Sister Jin. Rest assured, I’ll definitely make you satisfied!”

”I’ll be waiting for it then.”

Fang Yu sent a haha emoji and continued eating his breakfast while browsing the forums.

Sure enough, gold prices were stable at around 6.6, having previously dropped to 6.2; it was clearly rebounding!

Although the game had a high entry barrier requiring a ten thousand yuan headset investment, its uniqueness with no alternatives on the market, coupled with its dominant position, had almost secured all the avid gamers.

Even office workers would dabble in it part-time for a chance to make some money. Though they might not offer much value, the popularity of the game could only grow higher.

For a professional gamer, a good game is like a man choosing the right wife; smooth sailing lies ahead.

Fang Yu was grateful for this choice as it finally allowed him to make a fortune.

He quickly skimmed through the forums, gathering information.

Fang Yu found that there were three main topics of discussion among the players on the forum right now.

The first was about Sects and powers.

That is, players realized that Major Sects and big powers could provide support, and it was much better than getting a leading position in a small Sect.

In terms of resources and Martial Arts, those who joined Major Sects and big powers saw their strength skyrocket.

While those in small Sects and minor powers, with their meager resources and inferior Martial Arts, advanced as slow as a tortoise, barely getting more from killing a few people for Experience Points.

This led to two different opinions.

People from small Sects and powers preferred to bring their underlings, calling upon NPCs or players to join in gang fights or faction battles.

The underlings swarm in, they themselves finish off, earning Experience Points, and then they provide arranged points to enhance their strength.
