Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

Chapter 212: Chapter 193: Finding a Guide to Beg at the Second Campus?_2

Zi Liyuan didn’t mind the excess at all; anything that caught his eye went straight into the shopping cart.

Anyway, Contribution Value is a damn turtle egg, if it’s gone, I’ll just earn it again; I can just head over to the main second campus tomorrow to make friends with those peeps on the top hundred list.

Lord Zi was already brimming with confidence, capable of pummeling those second-year vets, and now, having acquired so many awesome items, one could say I’ve had an epic power-up.

Getting a little cocky, crushing the top-ranked prodigies of the second year doesn’t seem to be a problem, does it?

So, this shopping spree once again cost me over 50k Contribution Value, but basically any undead creature I could summon got some kind of boost, especially skeletons, zombies, wraiths, and vampires—they all got their strength doubled at least.

Only after that did Zi Liyuan turn his attention to the equipment.

Everything that met his eye was silver-colored hero equipment if it was Second Order or higher, with the occasional green or blue gear.

These lower quality items existed because they all had special effects.

Lord Zi set the equipment grade cap at Third Order LV80 and then clicked to view, and the equipment that appeared before his eyes turned into the golden sheen of Lord Grade!

“Well, well, all golden Lord equipment, but why are they all individual pieces? Throw me a few sets, will you?”

He remarked with a snort, and after inspecting a few golden Lord Grade equipment properties, he became hesitant.

Although the golden Lord Grade equipment was of higher quality than the silver hero gear, it was only a marginal improvement, and clearly, all of the golden equipment displayed was subpar for its tier and level.

If we were just talking about piling on stats, Zi Liyuan would’ve exchanged for a set of spirit power-enhancing gold gear without hesitation.

But in terms of practicality, it would be quite inferior, especially since the set he’s currently using replicates an ability, significantly boosting his single-target kill potential.

And these gold individual pieces mostly came with support abilities, with only a few having attack skills.

“Kind of trashy, let’s check out the silver sets; even though their base stat buffs are weaker, the skills that come with complete sets are usually nothing to scoff at.”

Inspecting the silver hero sets, focusing on the attributable properties and skills, his search was truly a blinding array.

The skills that came with the sets were incredibly varied and many were very practical.

Such as those allowing significant spiritual power recovery as a percentage, or temporarily boosting spirit, physique, or spiritual strength, and even those bearing some kind of blessing-like buff.

Lord Zi lusted after them, wanting to exchange for all of them, but just looking at the required Contribution Value made his face instantly fall.

“Damn it! Why are the silver hero sets so expensive?”

Checking out the skills of a particular set, one of which adds +1 to all controlled skills for the wearer, Zi Liyuan drooled over it while eyeing the price.

200k Contribution Value…

(Ĭ^Ĭ)MMP!

Just a silver hero set at LV80, not even including jewelry, and it costs an absurd amount, instantly killing my desire to buy.

After a spree of purchasing, my Contribution Value was no longer sufficient.

I put the information for this set into my favorites for now and then turned to look at the accessories.

This time, the list of accessories on the first page was emanating a purple glow!

Epic Quality accessories!

And a full page of them, a hundred pieces!

But the moment I saw the required Contribution Value, my heart turned cold.

Convex(╬ಠ皿ಠ)!

Even the cheapest piece required 250k to exchange, what a robbery!

An utterly speechless me promptly skipped the first page and looked at the subsequent ones.

Golden Lord Grade, silver hero grade, blue rare quality—the quantities were immense.

But the prices were anything but cheap, with gold quality accessories generally fluctuating between 10 and 20k, silver ones between 1 and 10k, and blue quality ones under 1k.

Every accessory and piece of equipment was of exceptional quality, at least better than the [Totem Necklace (Silver)] and [Totem Ring (Silver)] Zi Liyuan wore.

After carefully selecting, he finally chose four silver-grade accessories to add to his shopping list.

This time, he had spent another 60,000 Contribution Value, nearly depleting his account.

“Damn, why do I feel like I’ve gone on a shopping spree like it’s Singles’ Day?”

As he gazed at the long shopping list, he muttered a silent complaint, then decisively saved and printed it out before heading to the front desk.

There was still a lot he wanted to exchange for, but he had squandered nearly all his Contribution Value; he needed to go and beg for more.

The attendant at the service window wasn’t a teacher but a student from Dragon Academy working part-time.

When Zi Liyuan handed over his lengthy shopping list and guidance jade card, he directly stunned the student at the window.

Are these things that a freshman can buy?

Especially seeing the total value of 650,000 Contribution Value on the list made the student dizzy.

He had seen even higher contributions exchanged before, but for a freshman to come up with so much Contribution Value was nothing short of a miracle.

However, the thought of working at the window for a mere few Contribution Value while the other seemed carefree when exchanging for items filled the student with a sensation of loss.

All students of Dragon Academy, but must the disparity be so wide?

While using Zi Liyuan’s guidance jade card to check out, the student naturally noticed Lord Zi’s name and immediately thought of many things.

“Li Yuan, the items you’re exchanging for can actually be obtained in the Death Secret Realm, which would save you quite a bit of Contribution Value.”

The national college entrance examination’s top scorer, already able to obtain over 650,000 Contribution Value upon enrollment, could only mean one thing: this guy was absolutely ferocious.

Because the only way he could think of for a freshman to amass such a large amount of Contribution Value upon entering the school was one and only one: by forcibly snatching it from the second-year students during the seven-day orientation week.

Just having entered the school, without having yet received the abundant resources and training from Dragon Academy, he was already overpowering the second-year students.

Such a formidable person was, of course, someone he should get acquainted with; who knows, maybe there would be a chance to join under his command later?

The competition in Dragon Academy was too fierce, the strong always remained strong, and the weak?

Like this student here, earnestly working part-time in some department of the school to earn hard-earned Contribution Value.

“Is that so? Thank you for the advice, senior, but I’m in a hurry now. If I can solve problems using Contribution Value, then I can’t be bothered to go grind in the Secret Realm.”

How exhausting is it to explore the Secret Realms?

How easy is it to beg?

With an easy way to obtain the resources needed at the current stage, who would bother going through the tough work of grinding for resources themselves?

Upon hearing Zi Liyuan speak this way, the senior immediately felt a surge of frustration that he couldn’t vent.

After taking a deep breath, he stopped the idle talk and earnestly began uploading the items on the list from the machine.

“Please wait a moment, Li Yuan. In ten minutes, you can pick up your exchanged items at the collection window.”

Returning the guidance jade card, the senior kindly spoke again and even helpfully pointed out the location of the collection window.

“Thanks, senior. May I have your contact information? I have just started school and there are many things I don’t understand. It would be great to seek some advice from you.”

Lord Zi had the necessary courtesy, and the senior’s good-natured reminder indicated a willingness to make friends.

Perfect, he was planning to visit the second and third-year campuses. With this senior as a guide, couldn’t he save a lot of time?

As his Contribution Value hit bottom, Lord Zi began to contemplate his next begging venture; at this moment, he needed someone to lead the way.

Feeling honored and flattered, the senior then obediently passed his contact information to Zi Liyuan.

The guidance jade card had many functions, one of which was the ability to make remote calls, but you needed to add the other person’s student number to make contact. Of course, calling each other also consumed Contribution Value, 1 point for 10 minutes of talking time.
