Chapter 81: Contract
Golden Card City, City Hall.
Time slipped by unnoticed as Yone sat waiting in the polished marble halls of the administrative building.
In just over thirty minutes, he had already organized all the key data he’d gathered about Golden Card City. This kind of information was nothing short of a strategic treasure trove for the major guilds operating in this region, still fumbling in the dark.
He had already made 1.5 million dollars total for his Hell Mode dungeon, which wasn’t a big surprise since the popularity of Eclipse Online wasn’t as seven years into the future.
The game was still in its early stages, and more and more people would flock to it once they knew of its importance and that Eclipse Online was a literal treasure trove for anyone wishing to make it big.
Hence, his earnings weren’t that much...
Since he used the million dollars already for the little house he got on the outskirts of the inner wall, he saved the five hundred thousand rest for more pressing problems like funding Guardian Angels, and more importantly, his own guild!
Meanwhile, Yone divided the data he’d compiled into two distinct packages. One was a basic edition, a streamlined overview designed for casual or solo players. The other was a premium dossier tailored specifically for guild strategists and leadership.
The basic version offered a general feel for Golden Card City: events, key facilities, and basic survival tips. For instance, it noted the recurring large-scale trade fair held every three days, but skipped sensitive details like optimal farming locations or class-specific grind zones.
The premium edition, however, provided a much deeper breakdown. It highlighted which zones were best suited for different combat classes, where resource hotspots could be found, and offered insights into economic trends within the city. This level of detail was precisely what top guilds craved to gain a competitive edge.
