Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start

For the following week in the game, which encompassed chapters 41-45 of Tina’s storyline, players collaborated with the Unicorn Knights to eradicate all the gangs in the city.

What Su Yu found most impactful during the clean-up was the unity and cooperation between players.

The act of clearing the gangs didn’t incite any discord or disputes over looted gear among the players.

Everyone worked together like a well-oiled machine, accommodating each other, and striving towards a common goal.

Let’s take the case of the Sky Dragon, a loli character.

The Sky Dragon was part of the city lord’s manor’s faction, hence theoretically, she was opposed to Su Yu.

However, they traded intel to each other in an attempt to gain the maximum profit possible from the NPCs.

Of course, players were sometimes assigned missions that conflicted with each other, like intelligence gathering and defense missions, where one side’s success often meant the other side’s failure.

In such cases, mediators played a significant role.

Mediators worked to find a compromise, adhering to the principle of “obtaining maximum profit” and trying to achieve a satisfactory outcome for both parties. (For instance, the victorious party could offer some spiritual energy coins as compensation to the losing party.)

Nevertheless, the unity and cooperation among players during this major quest shone as a bright spot, lending color to the gloomy post-apocalyptic ambience.

This “Decapitate Snake Plan” saw participation from a whopping 100,000 players. Among them, 70,000 sided with the Unicorn Knights, while the remaining 30,000 were scattered between the gangs and the city lord’s manor’s villains. However, these 30,000 were essentially “double agents”.

With the players cooperating from within and from the outside, the gangsters of Orleans City were easily wiped out. Any who managed to evade capture were eventually handed over by the players in exchange for quest rewards.

The rewards for this operation were bountiful, leaving most players satisfied with their earnings,

After the “Decapitate Snake Plan” ended, a meeting to divide the ahem, I mean, to distribute the spoils of war, was held in the Blood Union’s hall.

On the hall’s floor, numerous valuable weapons, armors, gems, jewelry, and monster materials were on display.

Tina sat at the head of the table, satisfied as she gazed at the spoils spread out in the center of the hall.

Su Yu and Fiona stood beside Tina, on her left and right respectively.

On the side of the hall, the high-ranking officers of the Knights, along with player representatives such as Snow Leopard and Red-Eyed Black Dragon, all eyed the glittering spoils on the ground.

“Ahem, are we all here? If so, let’s get started on distributing the spoils,” Tina surveyed everyone present.

“Everyone’s here, for the most part,” replied Fiona.

Su Yu said, “There are some who shouldn’t be present—for instance, those adventurers from different worlds who infiltrated the enemy camp. They’ve worked hard for this ‘Decapitate Snake Plan’. I’ll represent them.”

“Hmm.” Tina nodded with a smile and looked at the secretary of the Knights. “Jessica, have you calculated the value of the spoils?”

“The calculation is complete, my Lady.” responded Jessica.

Jessica, the secretary, was a new recruit personally selected by Tina. She’s a young girl, probably around fifteen or sixteen years old. She flipped through her notes and crisply replied,

“We have confiscated 47 pieces of plate armor, 238 pieces of heavy armor .”

“No need to get into that much detail. Just tell me the total value of the loot,” Tina interrupted her.

Startled, Jessica quickly replied, “Based on my calculations, the estimated total value of the loot is around 320 million spiritual energy coins!”

“320 million!”

All present gasped at the number.

Tina and Fiona were shocked by the wealth amassed by the gangs. Snow Leopard and Red-Eyed Black Dragon were also surprised by the large number.

A newly entered Level 1 player earns around 2-3 spiritual energy coins per day; a Level 10 player earns an average of 20 coins daily.

With approximately 60 million players entering the game across the “Chinese server”, 320 million spiritual energy coins were almost equivalent to the entire server’s total daily earnings. This number was astounding!

Jessica, holding The Handbook, continued, “that’s 320 million. It’s a conservative estimate. Some of the master pieces of art have been evaluated at the lowest auction price. If they are auctioned in reality, the price would certainly be higher.”

“320 million, impressive indeed!” Tina grinned.

With this large sum of money, she could smoothly implement her upcoming plans and possibly even raise some funds for the princess.

Tina turned to Su Yu, asking softly, “Nemesis, how should we divide this 320 million?”

“If you ask me ” Su Yu rubbed his chin and replied slowly, “before we divide the spoils, we should confirm who is eligible.”

“That’s right, you speak up.”

“First of all ” Su Yu started, addressing everyone in the hall, “the Unicorn Knights were the main force behind this operation to wipe out the gangs. They definitely qualify to claim a share of the spoils.”

“Hmm,” everyone in the hall nodded in agreement.

“Next, the adventurers from different worlds who participated in this operation, as well as those who infiltrated enemies and provided us with valuable information, should be entitled to a share.”

After some thought, Tina agreed, “Indeed. I have witnessed the efforts you all have made for the entire operation. You significantly reduced the casualty rate of the Knights and provided a multitude of useful information. You certainly deserve a share.”

Seeing Tina’s agreement, Snow Leopard and Red-Eyed Black Dragon gratefully looked at Su Yu.

If not for Su Yu being here, the loot would have had nothing to do with the players. Once the players collected their mission rewards, they would have had to leave. The loot confiscated by NPCs belonged to the NPCs; players shouldn’t have had any greedy thoughts.

But now with Su Yu here, Tina decided to share a portion of the loot with the players out of deference for Su Yu.

Remember, we’re talking about 320 million here! Even 1% of it is a substantial amount. After all, not everybody was as rich as Su Yu.

Su Yu flashed a “don’t worry” smile at Snow Leopard and Red-Eyed Black Dragon before speaking again:

“Afterwards, Tina, you should keep a share for yourself to prepare for future reforms,”

“Lastly, I think we must distribute some to the city’s common citizens.”

“Distribute to the citizens?” Tilting her head, Tina contemplated the idea.

“Yes. In truth, these spoils are profits that the gangs squeezed out of ordinary people. Returning the loot to the people can be seen as a form of compensation.”

“Not to mention, it can also increase your popularity in the city and gain the people’s support. In the future, when you want to implement any reforms, it could decrease resistance.”

“Hmm, you have a point,” Tina sat upright and looked at Su Yu. “So, the Knights, the adventurers from different worlds, me, and the common citizens each get a share. What about you, Nemesis? Don’t you want to claim a share for yourself?”
