Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

"Holy shit!"

Staring at the 40 billion Credit Points that had just appeared in his inventory, Shen Fei was utterly dumbfounded.

He had suspected the [Heroic Mark], which granted immunity to Devouring from one’s own kind, would be highly attractive to the NPCs and Super Bosses who had crossed over from the game. He just never expected that his item would be *this* attractive.

It was bought the very instant he listed it.

Forty billion!! That was Credit Points, not Zimbabwean Dollars!

Faced with the instant sale of the [Heroic Mark], Shen Fei now understood. The NPCs in the special zones, just like the ones in the Game World, had to Devour their own kind to grow stronger. The ability to be immune to Devouring... The [Heroic Mark] was like a literal invincibility buff; it was a matter of life and death for Intelligent NPCs! Any NPC would want this item the moment they saw it.

Shen Fei was also shocked by something else. How could an Intelligent NPC or a Super Boss possibly come up with 40 billion Credit Points at once? A sum of Credit Points that large... Even I couldn’t produce that much on short notice.

"Interesting..."

As he stared at the 40 billion Credit Points in his inventory, a flurry of thoughts ran through Shen Fei’s mind. He was intensely curious as to how anyone could have come up with 40 billion in an instant.

SWOOSH.

SWOOSH.

SWOOSH.

As he pondered this, Shen Fei was already rapidly working within the Ninth World. If just over eighty people can make the Ninth World this popular, then it’s essential to keep adding connection nodes and let more people in.

Now, with the 4 billion he had earned in tax revenue, he could open new access nodes. Amid a series of beeps and following Shen Fei’s commands, the 4 billion Credit Points were used to open another 320 new connection interfaces. His 4 billion Credit Points were spent, down to zero.

Soon, Shen Fei saw countless people with three-digit IDs start talking in the world trade channel.

"You bastard!!"

"I finally have trading access!!!"

"You bastard!!!"

"So you were buying up all those Credit Points because you had the Ninth World all along!!"

"You bastard!"

"How much did you skim off my brokerage fees!!"

As the newly added traders began speaking in the world channel, Shen Fei checked the backend and saw that these irate traders all came from the massive special zone known as the Great Ocean. Listening to their furious shouts, Shen Fei felt he was starting to form a theory about how someone had managed to instantly produce 40 billion Credit Points.

"Alright!" Shen Fei said with a smile, having quickly finished his work. He transferred several hundred million Credit Points to Sun Yu. "With 320 new people, we should be able to release more goods! Also, don’t be shy with the money. Buy back anything useful you see!"

"Bro!! You’re incredible!!"

Sun Yu was so excited he practically jumped for joy. He watched as Shen Fei showed up, made a few quick adjustments, and suddenly added hundreds of new traders. And while the new traders were hurling insults, they were also listing more high-quality, low-cost goods.

"Alright! Anything else?"

Now that he had 40 billion, Shen Fei quickly used the Forum to transfer 2 billion Credit Points each to Zhao Li, Huang Yi, Succubus’s Tear, Young Master Void, and his father. A single [Heroic Mark] had sold for 40 billion, and these people, besides each giving him one Heroic Mark, had also given him items like the [Bisector Foil] and [Ant Power God]. He would have given even more, but he was afraid of scaring them by giving them too much. He also didn’t want to attract trouble for certain people, like Succubus’s Tear and Young Master Void.

After sending the transfers, he turned his attention back to Sun Yu.

He had left the real world to counter-invade the Game World more than two days ago. The moment he returned, Sun Yu had dragged him over to deal with matters concerning the Ninth World. Now that the appearance of several hundred new traders had plunged the Ninth World into a period of chaos, he was ready to move on to other things.

"There are two more things! Two more things!" Sun Yu answered immediately.

Soon, as Sun Yu explained, a strange expression appeared on Shen Fei’s face.

The first matter Sun Yu brought up was, surprisingly, also about the Ninth World. Two days ago, right after Shen Fei had activated it, someone had tried to sell people on the platform. Shen Fei had banned the user’s account immediately. What he hadn’t expected was that afterward, the person in question had actually sought them out voluntarily. He claimed he wanted to share a secret about the Ninth World with the Cyan God. And so, this Demon Cultivator was promptly subdued by Sun Yu.

"Next!"

Shen Fei had no interest in learning more about a human-trafficking Demon Cultivator being subdued. He just found it absurd that someone would get their account banned and then personally show up at their door.

"Hm?"

Shen Fei dismissed the first, almost comical, matter as little more than gossip. He didn’t expect, however, that the second matter would make his brow furrow instantly.

The second matter was no laughing matter. In fact, it was extremely important!

Sun Yu said that the Game World one of the remaining players could still access had been completely shattered. Currently, Sun Yu had already brought both the person and their server to Qing City and placed them under heavy protection.

Hearing Sun Yu’s description of the ravaged Game World, riddled with countless holes like Swiss cheese, Shen Fei could only exclaim that it was too damn coincidental.

"This person’s Game World? Is it one of the Game Worlds the six of us visited for our mandatory mission? Or one that Sky Control has been to?"

Sun Yu’s second piece of news filled Shen Fei with delight.

No matter which it was, this was incredibly important!

If this person’s Game World was the 18-Ring Game World he and the others had visited previously...
