Player Reload

The representative of the Global Supernatural Alliance GOC finished speaking, and representatives of other organizations took turns to speak, with rather consistent content—it didn’t matter how players messed around in normal times, but at critical moments like this, unity should be prioritized.

The press conference thus came to an end, and the representatives from different parties gradually left. Electronic billboards on the walls of high-rise buildings on both sides of the street lit up simultaneously, displaying advertisements.

"Treasure Pavilion announces an upgrade to its short-term rental service. Rent fine quality equipment for as low as 200 Game Coins."

"Credit Suisse Bank’s short-term deposit rates temporarily soar, adding a layer of protection for your family."

"Gen-Sys Biotech’s new superpower-activating agents are now available. If you can’t even survive today, why bother thinking about tomorrow?"

"New Pujing Casino is now open! Sexy dealers deal the cards online. Deposit 66 and get 66 free, with up to 500 Bitcoin withdrawals per day."

The colorful lights from the advertisements illuminated the entire street with a distinct cyberpunk vibe.

Gray Rain watched the neon lights with relish and turned to ask Li Cheng, "Isn’t it contradictory for these companies to rent out props at low prices on the one hand and encourage players to make deposits on the other?"

"It’s not."

Li Cheng folded up his beach observation chair and casually said, "Prop rentals increase the players’ chances of survival; they require a deposit and a contract.

Bank deposits, on the other hand, are aimed at the Game Coins left in the players’ pockets. This thing doesn’t come with life or death, so might as well temporarily deposit all the money before carrying out a task. If a player dies, the bank will convert the money into cash and send it to their family.
