God of Money

Chapter 93: <Game king>

MOX’s CEO Jung Hyosung was in a good mood. He received a report that morning from the strategy department.

“This month’s sales for Legend has increased 10% and 20% for Legend 2.”

“And the reason is?”

“It’s thanks to Managing director Jung’s quality improvement project.”

“Haha, so it’s Jinsup’s work! That’s my boy. He’s smart like me.”

“Haha, I agree.”

“But he’s still very young. I hope you take good care of him, Chief Choi.”

“Of course.”

The chief of the strategy department left the room and returned to his chair. His assistant came up to him and asked.

“Are you sure we don’t have to report this?”

“It’s fine. I’ll take care of it. It will blow over soon. Guilds fight each other all the time.”

“But it’s different this time. It’s strange. There has never been a time when so many guilds increased the prices all at once.”

“You are still new here, so you don’t understand. It happened before. Do you not know of Nuts Liberation War incident?”

Nuts Liberation War.

It was a famous incident that happened in 2005 inside Legend.

A particular guild’s tyranny was so horrible many users including those from different servers fought to get rid of it.

The assistant answered in frustration, “I have been playing Legend for the past 5 years and that was an exception.”

The chief continued quickly, “Besides, all the involved castles are owned by different guilds anyway. They will fight for a while, and things will settle down.”

He waved his hand to dismiss his assistant, who still remained wary.

This was happening in too many servers. Out of 32 servers, 16 of them were involved so far.

---------------------------------------------------------------

21 years old.

Go Jongsu was a game addict whose job was a professional gamer for hire.

He logged on to the 21st server Areline as the character named K9.

K9’s current level was 95.

There were three substitute gamers hired for this character. They worked 8-hour shift to boost this character every day. Within only a few months, it became one of the top ten characters within the game.

Go Jongsu sent a message to all of the guild members.

“Guild members. Are you ready for the siege?”

“Ready.”

“Ready.”

“Ready.”

They were about to go to war to take over a castle. This wasn’t just a game for many. By becoming a castle owner, they could tax other traveling characters for game gold. They could then sell these golds online.

Essentially, they could make real money.

10,000 golds equaled 10 dollars.

Go Jongsu checked his weapons and announced.

“Then, let’s begin.”

He moved his character to the designated area and the other characters followed his lead.

“We begin.”

“Whichever side surrounds the castle flag will become the winner.”

“5, 4, 3, 2, 1”

After the countdown, the war began.

Go Jongsu had the best weapons money could buy. There was no way his side could lose.

---------------------------------------------------------------

When Woosung logged on to Legend, he noted that all of his characters leveled up significantly.

K9 95 Lv.

Gauser 94Lv.

Daeyang Mania 96Lv.

Blue Red 93Lv.

Most characters were over level 90 and their weapons and items were of highest quality and power.

Woosung had the best characters in the game.

When he logged on to the server Areline, a popup came up.

“Do you agree to be the new owner of this castle?”

“Yes.”

Woosung’s character appeared on the screen with a crown on top of his head. Woosung smiled in satisfaction and continued on with the other characters in other servers.

When Woosung met Jung Jinsup, he thought hard to come up with the best way to get back at him. In the end, Woosung decided he could use the game to destroy him.

He planned to become the tyrant over all the servers and drive all the other users out of the game.

He had more than enough money to make it happen. He hired several professional gamers so it could not be traced back to him.

He checked his game account balance.

6.7M Gold.

This meant he could exchange it for 67,000 dollars. This was the money he earned as a multi-castle owner.

“Well, I spent about 100,000 dollars on this game, so at least I am getting close to evening out.”

Woosung closed the game and opened the bitcoin server.

The speed of mining decreased significantly.

He was getting only about 7 bitcoins per server every day

But he already had enough bitcoins. In 3 months, a miner in the US will purchase 1309 bitcoins for a dollar. Woosung planned to buy them himself if possible.

---------------------------------------------------------------

After work, Kim Yonggun returned home and connected to Legend. He was still angry about the increase in tax within the game. He checked the game chatroom to read what other gamers thought.

“What is Legend GM doing? I hate this game now.”

Things happened fair and square, so stop complaining!”

Different gamers felt differently about what was happening in the game.

Kim Yonggun collected the data and analyzed them to calculate the average increase in taxes within the group.

Out of 32 servers, 25 increased their taxes an average of 20%.

All within the last two months.

However, all the guilds and characters of these servers had different names.

It was strange.

He has been playing for many years and this never happened before. The data looked too clean and organized. Because it looked too perfect, Kim Yonggun started to suspect someone was behind it.

“It’s just too weird. Within the last two months, 25 servers’ castle owners changed. Each has a different guild. This has never happened before as far as I can remember.”

After much thinking, Kim Yonggun closed his computer and laid down on his bed.

“Gosh, I’m getting a headache!”

He was so tired from work he didn’t have the energy to play games nowadays. He figured he should just wait for this situation to pass. He thought things would settle eventually, and he would start playing again then.

Many other gamers were feeling the same way.
