Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

Her Combat Power received another huge boost.

And with the updates for versions 4.6 and 4.7, it occurred to her that if these Intelligent NPCs and Bosses could gain experience from killing one another, then things would be much easier for humanity.

”No... You only get experience from killing human players and non-intelligent monsters.”

Unfortunately, Tang San’s answer dashed Zero’s hopes.

Just as human players couldn’t gain experience from killing each other, these Intelligent NPCs and Super Bosses couldn’t gain experience from killing one another either.

”Secret Realm 10,000x Manifestation!”

Looks like the price of special Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls is about to skyrocket!

Just like Tang San, Zero immediately figured out what these NPCs and Bosses would do after the v4.7 update. With her permissions in the Ninth World, she instantly concluded that the item’s price was going to rise.

”Let’s go!”

”Keep moving!”

”I refuse to believe I can’t find it!”

”The chaos in the special zones will actually make my investigation easier!”

After a quick exchange with Tang San and a moment of thought, Zero promptly resumed her mission.

She was going to uncover the secret of the Intelligent NPCs and Super Bosses hidden in the special zones—beings that outnumbered humans tens of thousands to one, with Combat Power that vastly surpassed them.

Of course, her comparison of Combat Power didn’t include Shen Fei.

SHIMMER.

With a wave of her small hand, Zero—who had inherited the abilities of the fourth game—opened an Ethereal Passage right before her eyes.

Then, she and Tang San stepped through, heading for a region deep within the Pacific Ocean.

”Holy shit!!”

”What the hell??”

”Why has the price of Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls shot up so much??”

「Qing City.」

In the Ninth World, Sun Yu had just finished a test with his big brother, Shen Fei. They confirmed that their communication via ”notebook” and ”voice recorder” still worked properly after Shen Fei entered the special zone.

Sun Yu, who had a million things to do, was about to move on to his next task. But to his surprise, he saw countless buy orders for Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls suddenly flooding the wanted section of the Ninth World.

Moreover, the buy price for the Scrolls was several, or even more than ten times, higher than before. As time passed, the price was still skyrocketing.

”Fuck!”

”Buy them up now!”

”Fuck! I need to tell the Tourism Management Offices everywhere! This is a strategic resource!”

Watching the rapidly changing buy orders for Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls, Sun Yu, both excited and shocked, quickly relayed the news to Huang Yi at the Tourism Management Office headquarters.

Although he could also use the city’s Teleportation Array, Sun Yu couldn’t just fly all over the world like Shen Fei could.

Therefore, it was better for the Tourism Management Office to take the lead in gathering the Scrolls from players within Great Xia.

Sun Yu already knew that the Ninth World was his big brother’s enterprise. He knew that as long as the item prices were high, his big brother could collect a huge amount in taxes.

Therefore, all he needed to do was have the Tourism Management Office pay attention and then standardize the price of the Scrolls.

”Fuck!”

”There are buy orders for Monster Nests, too?”

If I remember correctly, only Big Bro has those...

A few seconds later, before he could even report the situation to his big brother, Shen Fei, Sun Yu saw that in addition to the Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls, someone was placing extremely high buy orders for an item called a ”Monster Nest.”

Unfortunately, as far as Sun Yu knew, no human player in Great Xia had one. The only few in existence were in his big brother, Shen Fei’s, hands.

And what’s more, his big brother had already used them around Qing City.

Big Bro is amazing!

He’s truly farsighted!

He remembered that Shen Fei had bought up a large number of Secret Realm Refresh Scrolls before. He also remembered that only his big brother had ”Monster Nests.” Sun Yu’s perception of his big brother, Shen Fei, as Invincible was reinforced once again.

”Big Bro!”

”Check the market!!”

”The prices of two items have gone through the roof!!”

A few seconds later, Sun Yu took out the notebook and voice recorder, quickly wrote his message and recorded his voice, then placed them back into the Ninth World.

He had agreed with his big brother to make contact once every 12 hours. He never expected to be reaching out to him again so soon.
