Chapter 267 - 245: The Great Hammer
According to the system description, using the VIP card in the personal mall will result in fifteen discounted items that will persist until the player chooses to refresh them.
Li Cheng had over ten thousand Game Coins in stock, so with ample funds, he gave it some thought and used the card.
The product page of the personal mall flipped like a deck of cards, refreshing all at once, and each item was marked with a new discount label—ranging from forty to fifty percent off, to as little as seventy to eighty percent off.
Moreover, the quality of all items was fine or above, including two Perfect Level items.
"This direct discount promotion method is indeed simple and brutal,"
Li Cheng commented sarcastically, "If internet companies were in charge, they’d surely come up with something like raising the price before discounting, or making you collect coupons for following, being a member, and joining before you get a discount, or having to spam your friends to help you ’slash’ the price a hundred times before you could place an order..."
Such steep discounts sell for cheaper than auction houses and back-alley black markets; one could simply turn them over for a profit.
"Let’s see what we’ve got."
Li Cheng carefully perused the item list, the first being a fine quality "Electric Holy Water Sprayer," identical in design to those fifteen-dollar electric sprayers,
capable of turning poured pure water into blessed Holy Water, exceptionally effective against Vampires, werewolves, Evil Spirits, and other dark creatures, with the use conditions requiring strong religious faith.
"Blackbeard’s Blade," a pair of pirate swords imbued with Black Magic special effects, capable of commanding zombies and venomous snakes. Additionally, when used on a sailing vessel, they can control the ropes and the iron chains of the anchor.
