213 Cosmetic Cards

"Ladies and Gentlemen!! Thank you for buying from Dungeons and Pandas! You will not regret getting those card packs!" Mr Patsu went up to the second floor to thank the current crowd.

"However! When you have the chance, return to Auditorium One! Looks like our dear little boys are not over with the fight!" Mr Patsu jumped up the table and flew down to the first floor.

Well, it's more like diving down and landing on his stomach since his penguin wings did not work. Yet, Bear Cub One managed to drag the unconscious penguin to the Auditorium One to see the screen portraying Bu Dong against Yue Han and Kong Xian.

"What a match with two players battling against one?! How is that fair!" A customer complained loudly about this injustice. "Tsk tsk tsk, my friend, you do not seem to know much about Bu Dong. He is a guy who fights well and a rather wealthy little boy. I remember seeing him treating his close friends to a number of dungeons just so that he could have a team with him." Another customer who just bought a card pack told the stranger.

"Wait, so you are saying?"

"Yes, I believe Bu Dong is wealthy enough to buy multiple packets of these cards and felt confident enough to fight against the both of them." The customer's guess was somewhat on the mark and he opened his card pack, hoping to see at least an uncommon rarity card.

Bu Dong called out for his Angry Ape to arrive on the scene which made both Yue Han and Kong Xian slightly jealous. "Wow…this is the power of money, right?" Yue Han commented and Kong Xian could only agree.

The Angry Ape was not just any ape beating his chest like a King Kong. Instead, it was fully clothed, had a circlet on its head and a long red polestaff. It was like a mini Sun Wu Kong, and the customers gasped at such beautifully detailed clothing as well as the actions it was portraying.

"Ah, if you guys are wondering. The card packs you are getting are all arena based cards. There is a small probability that you will receive extra cosmetic cards. Yes, extra cosmetic cards, definitely not at the cost of your cards in the pack." Mr Patsu said loudly as they saw how fanciful Bu Dong's Angry Wu Kong was.

"However, the pole he is holding is a weapon, definitely not cosmetic right?!" A customer shouted out and Mr Patsu shook his head. "No, it looks like a weapon but it is cosmetic in nature. The attack Bu Dong's pet does with that pole would be equivalent to the same amount of damage done without the pole too. Rest assured, the cards you received can be equipped to your character." Mr Patsu announced.

"Hmmph, another gimmick to earn people's money. And I foresee it will be even more popular than the fishing instance." Mr-Know-It-All was sitting at the corner of a sofa in Auditorium One to write his notes down again. "Still, I must admit it's an interesting gimmick that even I am rather intrigued by. I feel the urge to buy all the cards just to see the entire battle collection." Mr Know-It-All sporadically took out his phone to check his stocks investment app.

"Looks like it would indeed be a good day to buy those cards for some study." He grinned quietly at a profit he had earned as he waited patiently at the corner of the sofa for more information from that jumpy penguin announcer. "Come to think of it, the card collection is still part of Jin's store. Boss, don't mind me adding it into the spending expenditure!" Mr Know-It-All thought to himself and smirked when he remembered he was at 'work' and he had some budget to buy stuff, allowing him to save some of his own money.

"Oh, there is actually a cosmetic card pack option, and it's one quarter the price of the card packs." One of the male customers who was whining to Jin saw that and proceed to buy a cosmetic pack despite him saying he did not have any cash with him. Guess, he decided to eat even more grass in the upcoming days.

"Yes! But if you wish to get more bang for your buck! You can head out of the Shop Level One instance and purchase a loot box from the second floor!" Bear Cub One interjected. "That way, you can get the upcoming Halloween instance ticket at a low price before it is sold out! Not to mention, there are cosmetic items in it too!" Bear Cub one iterated and the customer who bought the cosmetic pack not too long ago suddenly felt cheated.

Jin had also asked the system to renovate the loot box machine a little. He asked the System to remove the blessing stones of courage which no one really used. Maybe some who were frequent returning customers might see the effect of the blessing stones of courage in the upcoming Halloween instances, but that was the only advantage they might have.

Instead, Jin asked the System to put limited costume cards in the loot box machine that pertained to the Halloween theme. It can be bought as a package with the Halloween instance ticket or individually. Hence, If the tickets were sold out, the system would continue to sell the limited costume cosmetic cards and there was some use to the loot box machine.

Why did Jin not place the loot box machine on the first floor? He wanted to but the main reason for the loot box machine to be on the second floor was that he wanted to suck more money from people who walked out from the recovery instance.

By taking advantage of their feelings, their desire of wanting to succeed, to try again or the feeling of wanting to get a small souvenir after the battle for the sake of memento was a great way to earn money from the customers via the loot box machine.

However, Jin did request the System to create another loot box machine to be placed with the new pet vending machines and that was one thing that the System gladly obliged. Unfortunately, the System said it required a day to generate that loot box machine. Jin figured that there was a quota for the number of discounted tickets it could allow for the Halloween instance, so it wanted to collate the numbers from the sales of the current loot box machine.

"Why didn't you say earlier…" He wanted to push himself off the upper floor and commit suicide in front of Jin. "Ah, no worries, the cosmetic you bought have a chance of uncommon and rare costumes! The ones that can shine or sparkle with effects! The Halloween loot box, on the other hand, provides limited edition costumes that could only be obtained until the next series of costumes appear!" Bear Cub One said and the word time limited made everyone jumpy.

Upon hearing Bear Cub One's announcement, some people even started to walk towards the exit of the Shop Level One Instance to try out the loot box machine. Meanwhile, some people were divided. They wanted to watch the match with Bu Dong, yet they also would like to get the Halloween loot box.

Eventually, some stayed on to watch the match and those who were eager went to get their cards. Those were also one of the many who had subscribed to Jin's Nettoflix kind of channel where they could rewatch the matches to learn from their mistakes and for entertainment purposes.

"Hmm, looks like this pet thing is more serious than I thought…I should create a card recycler machine soon or else they will complain due to the duplicates." Jin noted to himself as he enjoyed the explanations by Mr Patsu and Bear Cub One. They had made his job easier.

"BOOOOM!" A loud sound came from the screens of Auditorium One and Jin continued to enjoy the match in Auditorium One.
