CH 21

Adrian was shocked and felt some uncontrollable fluctuations in his mood. A moment later, he took a deep breath and said calmly: “I’ll do the application for the store, but the information of the store is still up to you.”

Adrian opened the light computer, typed out his information and asked, “There are two kinds of virtual stores. One is the virtual version, users can only see the name of the store and the information of the goods sold, but they can’t be viewed in the store. The other is similar to a real store, which can be viewed in the store, but needs someone to take care of it and receive the guests.”

He Yishu made a choice without much hesitation: “The first one is much more convenient.”

“Name of the store?” Adrian asked.

He Yishu thought carefully and asked in embarrassment, “Can I write the name myself? The name I prefer may not be found in the existing language system.”

“You can write by hand.” Adrian put the light computer directly in front of He Yishu.

He Yishu wrote three Chinese characters, which was his own name. Before, he actually thought of a more powerful name, but there were so many words in Chinese that he couldn’t make up his mind. Finally, he simply used his own name.

Anyway, people here didn’t know Chinese characters. No matter what name he chose, it would look  very powerful.

After entering the name of the store, He Yishu filled in the next few options, and then he was baffled by an option: “Whether to provide physical services? What does this mean?”

Adrian immediately gave a detailed explanation: “What our shop wants to sell is a Rune card. Although the card can be directly used on the virtual Internet through the simulator, the reverse isn’t true. Therefore, the rune cards purchased in the virtual store can only be used in the virtual arena, not brought into reality. However, if we are willing to provide physical services, customers can buy it in the virtual store, and we deliver it in the real world.”

“In that case, I think we should choose physical services. What do you think?” He Yishu expressed his ideas and asked Adrian’s opinions at the same time.

“Mailing items is not troublesome, and the use of cards is also common in reality. I agree with your choice.” Adrian reached out and checked the option.

After that, it became easier. They spent a few minutes opening the virtual store, but they still needed to slowly supplement the information of all kinds of symbols and cards in the store.

He Yishu looked at his existing cards, put several kinds of cards into the virtual store, and finally opened and added customized cards.

[Our shop is limited to the production of various types of C-level cards, and the effect level can reach A – and below.]

[Our shop is limited to the production of various types of D-level cards, and the effect level can reach B – and below.]

[Our shop is limited to the production of various types of E-level cards, and the effect level can reach C – and below.]

[Our shop is limited to the production of various types of F-level cards, and the effect level can reach D – and below.]

……

After finishing the information of these runes and cards, He Yishu contentedly shut down the light computer, completely ignoring what kind of bloody storm the store would set off on the virtual network.

At first, there wasn’t much discussion about this strange shop on the virtual Internet. Only one person made a post jokingly, saying that he might have suddenly become illiterate. He didn’t even know the name of the shop selling Rune cards, he also added a picture of the name of the shop.

Meanwhile, the poster didn’t forget to make complaints about the cards that were placed in this shop. He had never seen anyone who could undertake the production of all kinds of cards that were higher than the two lower levels of the card grade.

After that, several people jokingly commented that they might also be illiterate, they couldn’t understand the characters in the pictures.

Several people also speculated that someone was playing a prank. They knew it couldn’t be true at a glance. They also condemned this irresponsible behaviour.

At this time, no one took the store seriously. At most, they ridiculed it. The post was hardly popular.

At the same time, the doubts about the previous 20 games in the discussion area had become louder and louder, and the discussion became more intense. Even the virtual arena couldn’t remain silent.

In order to clarify this matter, the virtual arena first sent a letter to He Yishu and Adrian, first introducing the general situation, and then put forward the hope that they would agree to publish the information of the symbols used in those competitions at that time. Accordingly, the virtual arena would also give them some financial compensation.

When He Yishu received this letter, he was a little confused. Then he went to the discussion area of the virtual network, he found that dozens of posts were discussing it. After that, he was extremely amused.

But then he touched his chin and showed a meaningful smile. It seemed that his previous plan was very successful.

Because he was in class, He Yishu couldn’t discuss the matter with Adrian face to face. He could only send him a consultation message, and the other quickly replied: [I support your decision.]

Seeing this reply, He Yishu was so happy that his eyes narrowed. After seriously expressing his gratitude to his backer, He Yishu immediately replied to the virtual arena. He readily agreed to the requirements of the virtual arena, but asked the virtual arena to keep the design of the rune card confidential.

In other words, they could release the specific detection information of the rune card, but they couldn’t tell them what the rune card looked like and how it was drawn.

He Yishu still hoped to make money with this. Of course, he couldn’t take the initiative to publish the most critical core technology so soon.

In less than a minute, he received a reply from the virtual arena and a transfer notice. The virtual arena agreed to his request and transferred 10000 credit points to him as compensation.

He Yishu suddenly had the illusion that he was rich again. He also wanted to run to the discussion area to see the excitement, but he  heard the professor call his name. He Yishu had to turn off his light computer and stand up to answer the question.

On the virtual arena, in addition to issuing an announcement on the matter on its own site, the virtual arena also published a post in the discussion area with an official account, which gave a detailed description of the card usage during the 20 games complained about before, and repeatedly stressed that the previous game data were indeed normal and there were no violations.

As soon as this post appeared, it immediately attracted countless passers-by, because the rows of character card data given in the post were going to blind their eyes!

A D-level Rune card had achieved the effect of C +, or even B -, and the quality was a high-quality product!

A C-level Rune card could even achieve the effect of A-. Were they sure they weren’t kidding?!

All the people who read this post had dull expressions. It wasn’t that they had never seen such spectacles. In fact, there had been high-quality runes with cross-level effects before, but this kind of Rune could only be refined when it was a highly skilled high-level card, and the probability of occurrence was very slim, so it was very precious.

But! Yes! Now! It had appeared.

It was a sin for someone to use such runes in 20 primary mode competitive competitions. 

How dare they do such crazy things? Did they dare to stand up and tell us how they got so many precious runes!

With these data, everyone’s attention had shifted from cheating to worshipping big men. Almost everyone was asking the same question.

Who were the people who used these cards? Who made these cards? Please stand up, boss!

Just as everyone wondered who made it, someone finally mentioned a newly opened shop in the post, whose name was unknow by everyone and was regarded as a prank shop by everyone.

Netizen 1: I’m weak, do you think this shop can really make this kind of Rune card?

Netizen 2: Although it looks very unreliable, why do I vaguely see a little hidden depth?

Netizen 3: The more I think, the more I think it’s possible, so should I go see the situation?

Netizen 4: Oh my God! You all are crazy. I just placed an order and it showed that it was sold out!!!

Netizen 5: It was a close call. Fortunately, I was smart enough to grab a C-level customized Rune card. Although the price is three times higher than the normal C-level Rune card, it’s quite cost-effective if the effect can really reach A -.

Netizen 6: I bought three D-level Rune cards with C + effect. They were in stock. 

Netizen 7: You don’t know whether it’s true or false. You’re all happy. Maybe it’s fake! Hum (╯ ^) ╮!

Netizen 8: don’t try to act smart, upstairs. You didn’t grab the rune card, did you_ (: з ゝ∠)_

Netizen 9: QAQ, although what you said is true, can you not expose me so quickly, whining

……

He Yishu didn’t know much about the excitement on the virtual network, but as a deputy store manager, he received a stack of orders from the virtual store.

Just one morning, all the cards in the store, including the customised cards, were sold out. 

Even though he was usually calm, he was shocked by this situation.
