Chapter 436 Gods' Game: Diamond Miner 4

However, Yu Xunge was not completely at ease. The definition of "mineral buyer" is very subtle. If a player buys minerals for the purpose of trading, does the other party's identity at the time of the transaction meet the criteria of "mineral buyer"?

These obvious and hidden pitfalls must be discovered through practice.

However, Yu Xunge's biggest advantage is that the punishment for breaking the rules is not an unbearable loss for her, at least much better than "randomly losing an item/prop/strange object from a package".

Given the game's strictness, she most likely won't be able to exploit the bug in [Despicable Me] to manually select the lost items.

Moreover, every sentence in the game rules contains hidden information.

The phrase "excessive losses" implies that leeway has been left, and at least fair trading can avoid punishment.

Unjust enrichment is also interesting, meaning that not only must one profit, but one must also use deception and other unethical means. She already had a clue about this; when it comes to swindling people, her mind always works very quickly.

But none of that compares to the most important message—[Friendly Reminder: Beware of Thieves]

The game's stone tablet only reminded everyone to be careful of thieves, but it didn't prohibit theft, which was undoubtedly the best news for her, a seasoned thief.

She now possesses ten different minerals of varying sizes, their exact value still unknown. Yu Xunge's first priority is to find mineral buyers in this commercial district.

Yu Xunge led Tu Lan into the crowd. Some of the aliens around her were carrying or holding packages full of minerals, but most of the players, like her, had nothing in their hands.

She obtained the master-level sewing pattern "Temporary Pocket," and these players each have their own trump cards.

She wasn't in a hurry to steal players' items. Unlike when items automatically appear in the player's inventory after a successful theft, without an inventory, the items appeared directly in her hands. She wasn't sure if the stolen minerals or other items would appear directly in her [temporary pocket].

Unlike Karting coins, most minerals are too conspicuous. She needs to find a robe first, at least to cover her hands.

Tu Lan looked at the alien players around her, eager to make a move, but she remembered Yu Xun Ge's instructions and did not act rashly.

He couldn't help but think to himself, "We don't seem to have ever stolen any items or equipment from the World Championship."

Yu Xunge: "That's not surprising. After all, the World Tomb has restrictions. The equipment and items that can be brought in must be the most special or the strongest. Most of these are either bound or already in hand. Our skill is theft, not robbery, so it's very difficult to get them."

As she spoke, she turned on her toes and walked into a small shop with a picture of minerals on its signboard.

Unlike the brightly lit market outside, the small shop was dimly lit, only slightly brighter than the tunnel.

This shop is less like a store and more like a randomly modified stone cave, with holes carved into the walls and various gems and minerals displayed inside.

The store was much larger than she had imagined; she guessed it had been expanded using spatial manipulation techniques.

There were many alien players walking around inside, each accompanied by a robot.

Just then, a robot that only reached Yu Xunge's waist walked over. It looked a bit like an old-fashioned mailbox that used to carry wine. Its entire body was made of metallic silver, and its two pincer-like hands would occasionally rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, making a crisp mechanical clicking sound.

Before Yu Xunge could speak, the robot had already spoken in fluent Chinese: "Hello, guest from Zaijiu Star."

This intelligence was beyond Yu Xunge's expectations. She had only been in the world battlefield for a short time, and this seemingly NPC-like being had already learned Chinese...

Yu Xunge suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and said, "I want to sell ore."

Z8017962: "This way, please."

Yu Xunge didn't move, but instead pointed to another standby robot in the corner: "I don't want you, I want it."

【B8017913 ? ? ? Battery: 92% | Honest, Gentle, Likes to Chat | Taboo: Customers Stealing Goods | Weakness: Running Out of Battery】

Z8017962's screen flickered, but it obediently stepped aside, while B8017913 immediately came over: "Hello, distinguished guest."

Yu Xunge followed the robot to a closed room. There was only a small table in the room. Suddenly, the robot grew a lot taller and stood facing Yu Xunge on either side of the table.

Yu Xunge took out a gem that looked the dimmest and placed it on the table.

The screen near the eye of the B8017913 lit up and quickly announced the price: "Slightly flawed soft iridescent sapphire, 186 diamonds."

Yu Xunge didn't waste time haggling. This was a shop in the commercial area, so even if the price was lower than the stalls outside, the risk was much lower.

Just because these robots are loaded with Chinese characters, Yu Xunge is inclined to believe that they belong to the realm of gods and gods.

She deftly pushed the gems to robot B8017913, which collected them, extended its mechanical arm, and dropped a purple gem the size of a ping-pong ball, a blue gem the size of a quail egg, and a handful of small white gems the size of fingernails.

The currency units are very easy to understand: 100, 50, and 1. To Yu Xunge's relief, those shining gems outside weren't actually currency, so she had nothing to regret.

She put all the jewels into her "temporary pocket".

After waiting a few seconds, there was no notification of any rule violation.

Whether it would be a profit or a loss was uncertain, but it was definitely within the scope of fair trade. Yu Xunge took out all the remaining 9 types of ore.

In the end, I received a total of 2976 gems.

At this point, Zi Chuan Tao You, who was ranked first on the leaderboard, had already earned 30,000 gems.

Yu Xunge was ranked outside the top 50,000, and the entire game of gods had fewer than 60,000 players...

This gave Yu Xunge a sense of powerlessness she had felt when playing mobile games before. She felt that she had done everything she was supposed to do, and she hadn't slacked off or gone AFK, but when she opened the leaderboard, the data of those top players on the world leaderboard was like they were using cheats. The data was the same as what she could get by simply opening an emulator and typing it out.

Yu Xunge asked, "B8017913, do you have time? Let's chat? I don't mean anything by it, I just want to make friends with you."

B8017913 said gently, “Of course, esteemed guest. A 10-minute chat costs 100 gems, and making friends costs 200 gems. If you ask me questions, the price for each question needs to be discussed in detail.”

Yu Xunge & Tu Lan: ...

So this is what it means to like chatting...
