Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

With these items usable only in Secret Realms and some time to spare, he prepared to continue grinding them.

WHOOSH.

WHOOSH.

WHOOSH.

Soon, following Shen Fei’s massive shopping spree, every Secret Realm Refresh Scroll in the entire Ninth World landed in his inventory.

”URGENT! URGENT! URGENT!”

”Buying Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls for 50,000,000 Credit Points each!”

”Nationwide trades available!”

”Will come to your door to trade and collect!!”

Because Shen Fei had bought up all the Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls in the Ninth World, the scrolls had instantly become a rare commodity. In fact, some audacious person had posted a buy request on a forum visible to all players in Great Xia. At a price of 50,000,000 each, they were trying to buy up Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls from all over the country.

Unfortunately, they were not going to succeed. After the inheritance of game skills, every player now possessed special abilities. No one dared to casually tell others what they had. Everyone knew the saying: don’t flaunt your wealth.

They’re offering 50,000,000 for an item. What if they come to my door, tie me up, tie my family up, and just rob me by force?

Without being able to connect to the Ninth World, other players who had special items dared not casually reveal their wealth. Therefore, although 50,000,000 was incredibly tempting, aside from the jeers and shocked comments, no one on the Forum dared to recklessly claim they possessed a Secret Realm Refresh Scroll, even if they truly had one and their heart pounded at the price.

The Forum, after all, used a real-name system. After revealing yourself, who knew if a trader would arrive at your door, or a killer...

Although I’ve earned a lot of Credit Points selling in the Ninth World, I still need to continue establishing connection points and let more people link to the Ninth World! Otherwise, many players with items will have no sales channels! They have good things, but there’s no way for them to be seen. That’s also a major issue!

After purchasing over twenty Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls, Shen Fei logged onto the Forum, intending to find the names of some well-known special-type Secret Realms. Then, he saw someone was offering a high price on the Forum to buy them. Clearly, this person was buying at such a high price to get their hands on the scrolls and then resell them in the Ninth World to fleece Shen Fei.

Too bad for them, it was an impossible task. On one hand, no one dared to recklessly sell what they owned, let alone tell outsiders they had anything valuable. On the other hand, the twenty-some Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls Shen Fei had were enough. He wouldn’t be buying any more for a while.

WHOOSH.

While making the decision to use his newly earned Credit Points to expand the number of connection slots to the Ninth World, Shen Fei had already found a post on the Forum that compiled and detailed a list of special Secret Realms within Great Xia.

Across all of Great Xia, with the exception of his own special-type Secret Realm—which was rule-certified as his personal property—all other Secret Realms were public. Unless a Secret Realm spawned in the middle of a city and was subsequently declared exclusive, like the Heaven-Reaching Tower, no one could prevent others from entering a special Secret Realm.

But for Shen Fei, who possessed a Secret Realm Teleportation Array, he could come and go as he pleased, even from those Secret Realms in the centers of other cities. For a Secret Realm without rule-certification, a verbal declaration of exclusivity was useless.

WHOOSH.

Quickly scanning the information in the compiled post, Shen Fei soon found a Secret Realm that piqued his interest. Then, he tore up a Secret Realm Refresh Scroll. Once the cooldown for entering special-type Secret Realms was reset, Shen Fei immediately entered a new one.

WHOOSH.

WHOOSH.

WHOOSH.

With his supreme Combat Power, Shen Fei entered the Secret Realm and completely ignored the guides that everyone had published and compiled. When he entered a Secret Realm, he just steamrolled through! He would mindlessly pull mobs and wipe them out in one go.

Previously, he had meticulously tested his exclusive Secret Realm, Lin’an City, and collected detailed data for a guide. But now, faced with other Secret Realms that didn’t require data collection, Shen Fei could finally go all out.

He confirmed that even the combined Cluster Attack from his 500 Defense Towers, which could blast an entire Secret Realm into a blank slate, would not break through the realm or affect the real world in the slightest. After confirming this, his pace grew even faster!

Moreover, many Secret Realms that other people had only managed to detect by name and dared not enter after reading their brief descriptions were all quickly cleared by Shen Fei. What’s more, after he had cleared ten Secret Realms by himself, he even activated a Secret Realm point leaderboard. Each special-type Secret Realm cleared awarded 100 points.

The very moment the leaderboard appeared, Shen Fei’s score was perched at the top in first place with a massive lead. A massive lead! The player in second place only had a little over two hundred points; there was simply no comparison!

WHOOSH.

WHOOSH.

WHOOSH.

Just like that, aside from eating and sleeping, Shen Fei spent all his remaining time running Secret Realms. Three days later, his supply of Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls was finally depleted. His Secret Realm points had also reached over seven thousand, leaving him miles ahead of the second-place score of just over three hundred.

I’m not suited for grinding ordinary Secret Realms!

Three days had passed. Sitting back on the sofa in his villa, Shen Fei assessed his situation. After spending those days running through all the most famous special Secret Realms currently in Great Xia, his final conclusion was that he was not suited for running them.

Because of his Combat Power, he was simply steamrolling everything in the current Secret Realms. There was no exploration, no researching the realm’s story, and no honing of combat skills. Furthermore, because he was completely overwhelming them and his Combat Power was far too high, the final rewards in most realms without special rules were meager. It was like a high-level character farming a low-level dungeon. In many Secret Realms, Shen Fei simply steamrolled everything, and the rewards he obtained were below average.

Thus, he concluded that his Combat Power made him unsuitable for most Secret Realms.

After clearing dozens of special-type Secret Realms, he had determined that in the Lin’an City Secret Realm, he could still get normal rewards even when steamrolling it because he was the owner. But for other Secret Realms, as soon as a ”steamroll” was detected, the rewards would instantly be diminished. There was no room for negotiation.

And with the 500 powerful Defense Towers he could summon, it was impossible for him to avoid this detection. In every Secret Realm he entered, his Combat Power would be judged as ”overwhelming” during the final reward calculation.

So, the only Secret Realms I can run are ones with special rules, like those with various restrictions! Or realms where the creatures’ Combat Power scales with the entrant’s own...

Summing up his experiences over the last three days, Shen Fei came to this conclusion.

Of course, the Secret Realms that had manifested in reality so far were only a small fraction of the total from the Game World. Shen Fei believed that as more Secret Realms from the game appeared, there would eventually be one that would allow him to exert his full strength and still receive full, or even excess, rewards.

”Why am I a little nervous!”

”Me too!”

”Me too!”

While Shen Fei was mentally reviewing his gains from the three days in the Secret Realms, his family members were chatting amongst themselves. This was the night of the fourth inheritance of game abilities. No matter how busy they were, every member of the Shen Family had returned home to await it. Moreover, with Shen Fei’s help, everyone had already chosen what they wanted for their fourth inheritance.

Of course, there were some who could no longer inherit abilities, such as Shen Fei and Uncle Sun. Their board games were relatively simple, lacking many inheritable aspects. As a result, they could no longer actively choose to inherit anything.

[DING!]

As the family waited, the clock finally struck midnight. Then, everyone’s panels opened, and lines of text began to scroll by.
