39: Chapter 39 Even among young ladies, there are differences in skill level.

Facing the two options provided by the system, Zhao Xiaoshuai began to crunch the numbers.

"The first option is equivalent to a daily expenditure of 100,000 to 200,000 in reality. In the best-case scenario, I can earn 100,000, and in the worst-case, I earn nothing."

"The second option is to recharge the game every day, with a maximum profit of 77,760 yuan and a minimum profit of 38,880 yuan."

"In terms of expected value, the game is definitely higher, but the actual value of items bought in reality is higher, even though they cannot be resold."

Just as he was struggling with the decision, perhaps because his reputation in the game had risen to a certain threshold, he luckily triggered an in-game system quest!

One must know that the probability of triggering this quest is positively correlated with the number of online players in the game.

For a pay-to-win mobile game like three generals kill, with only about ten to twenty thousand players in total across all servers, the trigger probability is practically non-existent.

This was the first time he had triggered it, so he was quite curious.

[Quest: Become a Server-Dominating Boss]

[Condition: Obtain the recognition of server dominance from at least 80% of the active players on the server, and force at least two server-dominance candidates to quit the game.]

[Reward: All the money you have spent in this game will be refunded at double the amount (there is no cap on this refund amount).]

[Note: Once this reward is claimed, all subsequent spending in this game will no longer be considered pay-to-win behavior.]

"In other words, this is an ultimate quest. Once completed, this game will have no more utility?"

"However, my slot-opening progress can keep up, so this quest is still very profitable."

Now there was no need to struggle; Zhao Xiaoshuai directly chose the second option and immediately received an automatic reorganization.

"Good thing the quest triggered early; otherwise, if I had left it until tomorrow, I would have wasted a freebie card."

Looking at his watch, time was still very tight. If he moved too slowly, it might affect the check-in progress of [Quest: Optimism and Confidence].

He needed to recharge a total of 60 times. Fortunately, he had just changed his phone; otherwise, the crappy speed of his old phone would have made it even harder.

"Who on earth made the rule that the maximum single recharge amount can only be 648!"

After a rush of frantic activity.

These 60 recharges of 648 earned him a net profit of 58,741.2 yuan.

Everything taken care of, he hurried to wash up, turned on a sleep-aid video, and tried his best to drift off to sleep.

...

...

While Zhao Xiaoshuai was sleeping soundly, many people in the Brotherhood might not sleep well tonight.

A war of words finally ended with the dissolution of the group, and almost everyone recruited under the gimmick of being number one across servers had left the guild.

The Brotherhood's leader, Song Jiang, pulled together a new group through his friend list, but in the end, only twenty-something people joined.

The half of his territory that he had worked so hard to manage was just gone like that.

No, as long as Taowu is still here, everything can start over.

This time, he was just "stolen" from by that person. He had a pretty good private relationship with Taowu, and he knew that Taowu was a true second-generation heir of a major conglomerate.

He had confidence in Taowu.

However, the result of their private chat left him deeply melancholy.

Taowu: "Popping up without a sound and recharging over a hundred thousand at once—if this isn't a shill, what is?"

"It's pointless. I don't want to play anymore."

Song Jiang was stunned. Afterward, he sent a long message trying to persuade him, but Taowu never replied to him again.

Song Jiang took a deep breath, turned off his phone, walked to the windowsill, and lit a cigarette for himself.

Xing Tianjie was actually very depressed too.

He didn't really think that person was a shill; given his perspective, he had seen plenty of people with this kind of spending power.

Even he himself could easily afford this if it weren't for his sister's ban.

But he had to make excuses.

"Sis, I just can't swallow this anger."

"Heh, I didn't expect a small mobile game to teach you a lesson. Then those hundred thousand you spent were worth it."

"Sis, just this once, let me go this time. Let me kill that chicken-stealing bastard in your guild, and after that, I'll go to work at the company."

"No. Rules are rules and must be followed. Hmm? You said the person who suddenly threw over a hundred thousand and defeated you is in my guild?"

"It's your guild! You don't even know the people in your own guild? Also, I wasn't defeated; I was stolen from!"

"In any case, rules are rules. Learning to face failure is also a very good lesson. Brat, just bottle up your anger, hehehe."

Xing Tianjie was annoyed to death, but he had no other choice.

He had been afraid of this strong-willed sister since he was a child.

His sister was good at everything she did and had been the family's pearl since childhood. By comparison, he was practically like a free gift.

His mother died early, and his sister started disciplining him very early on. As the saying goes, an elder sister is like a mother.

Clearly, with his sister's talent, inheriting the family business was the best choice. He would be fine just being a wastrel who only knew how to spend money, enjoy life, and drift through the world.

However, his father was very patriarchal and insisted on passing the family business to him. He couldn't refuse even if he wanted to.

His sister also anticipated their father's actions and helped to groom him.

Poor guy, his heart was bitter; he just wanted to lie flat.

"I'm so pissed off!"

"By the time I reach my sister's targets and can spend money as I please, this game might already be dead!"

"Where am I supposed to go for revenge then!"

Xing Tianjie took a deep breath, stopped looking at the pile of messages tagging him on his phone, threw himself onto the bed, and covered his head with the quilt.

In the Moyu Society's group chat, they were having a heated discussion about tonight's big reversal.

Xiaoyan Muyu: "Who is Only Recharging a Billion Points a Day? I don't see him in the group."

"Holy crap, the beautiful president has appeared!"

"Captured a big beauty!"

"President, I am your dog!"

Yi Jian Heng Jiang: "@Only Recharging a Billion Points a Day, he goes by this name in the group @Xiaoyan Muyu."

Xiaoyan Muyu: "Oh."

Xing Huiqiong ignored the others once she got the information she wanted.

She had too many simps; she had no time or energy to waste on them.

Finding that person, she added him as a friend, typing only the word "Add" in the verification message.

She believed that was enough.

She should be well-known enough in the group, and that person should know roughly what kind of person she was.

Whether it was her appearance or her status, she believed the other party would be sufficiently interested in her.

She had always known that the group was constantly joking about and promoting her affairs, but she didn't care.

No matter how delusional ants might be, they could never touch the stars in the sky. But if a star cared about every single ant, even if she shone with brilliant light, she would be exhausted to death.

She just couldn't be bothered to waste the energy even on "caring."

It was always others who tried every trick in the book to add her; she had almost never taken the initiative to add anyone.

The few she had added were all big shots with status and reputation.

She had keenly sensed a potential connection and was just giving it a casual try.

She never did useless things, so even when accompanying her brother in his nonsense, she would do her best to make the wasted time meaningful again.

This was Xing Huiqiong, the young lady of Hengtian Group.
