Chapter 62 - Chapter 60: The family token Is a Trap

After that,

It was the distribution of small resources, not as vast as the Dead Soul Forest, such as a small map of Ghost Rock mines.

They had value, but not enough to tempt major powers.

After all, there were still major weapons waiting for them, and no one wanted to miss the most crucial family token for these small resources.

This also allowed Asuma, who was severely short on funds, to snatch a medium-sized Ghost Iron Mine.

"What exactly is going on with Konoha?"

"It's a loss. I was expecting them to hold out for something big, but they just messed up!"

This behavior also drew ridicule from players.

During this time,

Sunagakure tried to repeat its old trick, threatening some players to give up competing, hoping to auction off small resources at a low price, but they were jointly stopped by other major powers.

"Is Sunagakure shameless? They say it's an auction, yet they still want to use underhanded tactics?"

"We Cloud Hidden are not afraid of you. If you're not convinced, let your Rasa fight our Raikage in a real battle?"

"My apologies, everyone, I am Chiyo, an elder of Sunagakure. That was a temporary ninja who just joined Sunagakure; he was just too poor and that's why he acted that way. I have already punished him."

Seeing that they had incurred public wrath, Chiyo Baa-baa quickly stepped forward to explain.

Before the Reincarnation Game appeared, it was truly not easy to provoke these major powers all at once. Sunagakure did not have the deep reserves of Konoha to withstand multi-front attacks.

"Chiyo-sama, what should we do?"

Masaki, with his youthful and seemingly easy-to-bully face, looked nervously at Chiyo Baa-baa.

Chiyo Baa-baa shook her head and said, "Don't be afraid. Everyone thinks Sunagakure is poor, and that will make them relax their guard."

Resources are indeed scarce in the desert.

But everyone forgot that the Fourth Kazekage's Magnet Release: Gold Dust could manipulate the sand gold in the desert with magnetism, and after purification, it would become valuable gold.

Although the Lord of Wind Country continuously cut appropriations, leading to a significant depletion of this gold, the remaining stock should be enough to compete for a family token.

"Let them be arrogant for a while."

After all the small resources were auctioned off, the final family token finally appeared.

The first one was acquired by Hidden Mist Village for a high price of 200,000 reward points.

Immediately after, the second one was snatched by the Dawn Organization, which appeared out of nowhere.

Just when all players thought the last one would be either Cloud Hidden or Iwagakure, the silent Sunagakure suddenly emerged and directly obtained the last family token.

"Bastards!"

Upon learning the auction results, Raikage Ei's beard bristled with anger, and his hands trembled as he picked up a pen to write a punitive letter.

Mabui quickly pulled Raikage Ei back and said, "Raikage-sama, war is no small matter. We have already agreed with Iwagakure to move against Konoha, so we absolutely cannot create new problems."

Raikage Ei took a deep breath, calming his breathing, and said, "Despicable Sunagakure, it will be their turn after we divide Konoha!"

Mabui rubbed her forehead and said, "Raikage-sama, according to my deduction, family tokens should continue to be sold through various channels later on. At that time, we can also establish a family, just a little later."

Cloud Hidden are all muscle-headed martial artists; even Raikage-sama is not easy to deal with.

Raikage Ei sighed, "First, establishing a family is a symbol of strength and will definitely attract a large number of players. By the time we establish a family, it will be too late."

"Not necessarily."

Mabui shook her head and said, "Based on my understanding of that mysterious Game Merchant, while there are benefits for the first group to establish families, there are also disadvantages."

That is funding.

Just looking at Hidden Mist Village, although the first kill of Spectre General was richly rewarded, it nearly exhausted their family's resources.

The forces that establish families in the first batch certainly have a great advantage, but they probably also have to make a big financial sacrifice.

In fact,

Just as many players thought, the family token was just the beginning.

Bang!

A crisp cracking sound echoed in the Mizukage's office.

Mei Terumi's delicate face was filled with anger, and a trace of hot acid flowed from the corner of her mouth.

The ornaments on the table were melted by the acid, dripping onto the floor with a sizzling sound.

Mei Terumi gritted her teeth and asked, "That bastard Game Merchant, to activate the family token, it actually requires ten hearts of Ghost Mage?"

"That's right."

Chojuro, glancing at the freshly acquired family token in his backpack, didn't even dare to breathe heavily.

Salina's Heart is a silver-grade material produced in the [Dead Soul Camp] dungeon.

It is very rare.

It is not even sold in the Game Store and can only be obtained by entering the dungeon and killing the final boss, Ghost Mage, or by getting an S-rank evaluation during the clearance settlement and flipping a reward card.

The reason Mei Terumi was so angry was because the [Dead Soul Camp] dungeon had difficulty distinctions.

Normal, Adventure, Warrior, Hell.

According to the different dungeon levels, the various attributes of the monsters in the dungeon would also increase accordingly.

The Normal difficulty dungeon only required a level 15 player with a full set of green equipment to clear it solo.

Adventure difficulty required a five-person team to barely clear it.

Even with a level 19 Exploding Flame Mage in full purple equipment, and Mei Terumi personally leading the team, there was a possibility of failure in the Warrior difficulty.

The difficulty of the Hell level was even more imaginable.

However, only the Hell-level dungeon had a chance to drop silver-grade materials like Salina's Heart.

"A Hell-level ticket costs two hundred reward points."

Mei Terumi gritted her silver teeth and murmured, "A full five-person team requires a thousand reward points. Excluding the possibility of failure, it would still take dozens of clearings to collect enough Salina's Hearts."

After all, Salina's Heart is not a guaranteed drop. If one is unlucky, it might take nearly a hundred clearings to collect ten.

Mei Terumi asked helplessly, "Have you contacted the Merchant?"

Chojuro replied, "We've already contacted them. It's probably because all the factions that also acquired family tokens contacted them, making them realize something was amiss, so they're asking forty thousand reward points per heart."

These silver-grade materials, which temporarily had no discovered use, were not kept by the major powers.

Only the Merchants considered them rare commodities and hoarded a few, but they were only a handful, given the drop rate.

Hell difficulty is high, and the ticket fee is particularly expensive.

Once failed, it's a complete loss, so aside from a few produced when the dungeon first opened for pioneering, there has been no further output, and naturally, the Merchants don't have many either.

Everything still depends on the Hell-level [Dead Soul Camp] dungeon.

Afu couldn't help but exclaim, "It's truly you, Master. Not patching up the loophole left by the pollution source back then was for now?"

After the pollution source was eliminated,

The contaminated world fragment would retain a source of pollution, like a hole in a cloth bag.

If this hole was not mended for a long time, it would automatically absorb cosmic energy, and new Ghost Mages would soon be born.

In that case, all previous efforts would be in vain.

Afu had previously reminded his master, but the latter didn't care and was unwilling to spend a million reward points to mend the hole.

"I told you a long time ago to make full use of the players' enthusiasm."

Fang Yi smiled and said, "After I open the Dead Soul Camp dungeon, I can break down the energy absorbed by the pollution source every day and create countless weakened Ghost Mages, providing them to players for experience gain and equipment drops."

"Since I can make use of waste, why should I spend a lot of reward points to mend it?"
