Chapter 303 - 303 200 Million for Aid
Hearing Xia Wanqing mention this, Ling Yi hesitated for a moment before finally nodding. “Alright. I’ll take out 200 million to test the waters.”
He had the [double gold coin], so as long as each of them killed one enemy, he would not lose anything.
And if they put in more effort and killed more, could he make even more money?
To him, 200 million was only a fraction of 40 billion, so he didn’t feel bad about using it to see how it goes.
!!
He opened the aid interface on the other side. On it, he could see that some of the more well-known companies, rich people, and celebrities in the country had provided some aid. The average amount was between a few thousand to tens of thousands of gold coins.
The money had long been collected, and the portrait had turned gray.
Ling Yi clicked on the “aid” button and immediately entered the huge number ‘20,000,000’ into the input box that popped up.
Finally, he clicked the “confirm” button.
The next moment, the interface in front of him lit up with his new aid message.
At the same time—!
All the ordinary adults in the country received the same message.
[There are new changes to the aid interface. Click here to view →]
They would naturally be given information on how ordinary people played.
Most people immediately clicked on it without even looking at the donation information.
[You have received aid and are qualified to enter the arena.]
[Prompt: On the battlefield, all of your gold coin earnings will belong to donor ’01’]
Many people were in awe of the information.
In their view, this was the “official language” of God’s Path, and they had to take it seriously.
“Eh? 01? Is it that 01?”
It was only then that most of them realized that they were snatching aid from “01.”
Looking back at the information on the aid interface, everyone was certain when they saw that this was the same guy who wore the titles of “Ultimate Legend” and “Glorious Pioneer of Miracles”.
This was the 01 that everyone knew!
When they looked back and saw the amount of aid funds, all of them were shocked!
“200 million? 01 gave us 200 million gold?”
“Thank you, 01! I have a chance to become a player!”
“I only hope that God’s Path will give us a chance to repay big brother 01.”
“…”
A minute ago, in a village in Shenxia.
Old man Li and his family were enjoying the shade on the roof. The wild wind by the mountain blew slowly.
Under the moonlight, the family saw that their neighbors had also climbed onto the roof.
The two families were very close to each other, and there was only a gap of less than half a meter between the roofs. If they took a big step, they could even directly walk through it.
The neighbor, old man Wang, strode over with his hands behind his back. He walked to old man Li’s side with great familiarity, pulled over a wooden stool, and sat down.
*Sigh* “What kind of ordinary battle is being held tonight? It’s none of our business again.”
As soon as he sat down, old man Wang shook his head.
Upon hearing this, old man Li’s son put his hands on his hips, “This is a trashy event. It said that it was giving us ordinary people a chance, but it wanted to collect gold coins. Don’t you know that many of us don’t have gold coins? They didn’t even give us a channel to exchange for gold coins.” He sighed, “I’m so anxious.”
“Hehe, I heard that the faction that wins the battle will have a chance to draw from the prize pool. They might even get a player qualification card. Is that true?” Old man Wang asked with a smile.
“It’s true!”
Although old man Li’s son was dissatisfied with the God’s Path’s rules o, he still spoke as a matter of fact, “The probability of all the items in the prize pool has been announced in detail. The lowest probability is the player qualification card, which is only one in ten thousand.”
“That’s not bad. Aren’t the Divine Union going to give us a batch of gold coins to exchange for tomorrow morning? Maybe we can go in tomorrow.” Old man Wang said happily.
“Hehe, don’t get your hopes up. Shenxia doesn’t lack anything, we just have a lot of people–”
Before he could finish his sentence, new information appeared on the aid interface in front of everyone.
After experiencing the previous few waves of “snatching,” they all reacted quickly and immediately clicked “snatch.”
“I got it, I got it!”
“I also got it!”
“I also have…”
“You got them all?”
The crowd looked at each other, then looked at the name of the aid, and suddenly came to a realization.
“01! It’s him again!”
“He actually gave us 200 million gold coins. Does he have that much money?”
“Wow, 200 million gold coins is an additional 100 million people. Won’t this break the balance between the countries?”
It was said that after the event, the entire Alliance had a simple meeting.
The various countries had formed a tacit agreement: They could open the way to exchange for gold coins, but they couldn’t directly give out gold coins for people to enter.
Otherwise, if Shenxia was willing to put in 1 billion, the Union of hundred stars was willing to put in 1 billion, and the Northern King was willing to put in 1 billion…
This way, it was equivalent to everyone using more gold coins in exchange for the same battle situation as before, which was not good for everyone.
Moreover, 1 billion gold was not a small amount.
“Who cares? Let the other factions’ tycoons or some other major financial groups contribute too.”
“01 is a real hero!”
“That’s true. Didn’t you see the fake reviewers? They’ve all stopped trying to smear 01’s reputation.”
“Even the foreigners don’t dare to fire at him. He has too many fans around the world!”
…
There were some things that Ling Yi didn’t expect.
For example, after he gave out the 200 million, a large number of people came out of nowhere and gathered around his house. They held up banners that said “thank you for the 200 million aid from 01” to express their gratitude.
They seemed to be afraid of disturbing his rest, so they did not speak or shout.
But still…. Thousands of people surrounded his house.
“Uh…”
Ling Yi stood on the rooftop and looked around at the people who were thanking him. He felt a little guilty.
“Uh… I just wanted to make money. If I lose money, I might not do this again next time.”
He told the women around him honestly.
“No matter what your goal is, you have indeed helped so many people.” Yunji shook her head and chuckled. “Besides, the idea of making money is perfectly justified. It’s not a bad idea. You totally deserve their gratitude.”
“That’s right,”
Xia Wanqing nodded in agreement, “although selfless sacrifices seem better, actions with a purpose are more human. You’re selfish, and everyone would be able to relate to you, right?”
“Sh*t…”
Ling Yi thought for a moment and realized that it was true. Between a person who selflessly contributed without asking for anything in return and a person who harbored selfish motives, the former was definitely more respected, but in terms of distance, the latter was indeed relatable.
After all, they were not saints.
The people who came to thank him were basically those who had snatched his help. Thus, the moment the ordinary battle began, the crowd outside disappeared almost instantly, leaving only a few people.
Seeing this, Ling Yi told the women to lay out the carpet on the rooftop and lie down.
“Are you going to spend the night here?”
Xiaoya asked excitedly.
“Mm… That’s fine too.”
The rooftop was also within the House Protection Talisman’s protection range. They could see the outside, but the outside wouldn’t be able to see them, and it was absolutely safe.
He lay on the carpet and watched the ordinary battle that was being launched on the forum interface.
— After entering, 3 types of monsters below level 10 will appear in front of them. After choosing one of them to transform into, they can go forward and fight.
The map for the ordinary battles was round, and the seven camps were divided into seven corners. On the sides of the circle, the core was a crystal.
After the crystal was broken, all the players in the camp had to leave. The last remaining camp won the ordinary battle.
It was a very simple rule.
Of course.
Because each side had at least tens of millions of people, it was impossible to defeat them in a day. Thus, in order to shorten the time, God’s Path also set the lifespan of the crystal — the crystal only had a 10-minute lifespan. If you wanted to extend it, you had to grab the special material ‘crystal source’ on the map. A single crystal source could extend the duration by one second.
