The Earth After Rebirth

Chapter 177: Game Goes Live



[The mysterious company that created the online VRMMORPG, that has taken Sanctauri by storm has just released an update within the game. It's still unknown where the company hails from, but they've managed to make Asgard a second world that has its own currency.

Now that currency is something that can be exchangeable for real creds. It's rumoured that 1 in-game gold coins will be 50 creds which is a massive gain...]

Kiro stood there dumbfounded. He didn't even notice when he took a standing position. His knees were growing weak, he wanted to cry in relief.

3 months! 3 whole months the game made him wait. He had given up completely on the conversion, he was starting to save money from his beast rental business. But this surprise was the best one he's received in a long time.

"Ki, did I hear that right? Is that saying what I think it's saying?" Hiro called out. Influenced by Isla, they'd started calling him Ki now. Even Saanvi.

"Hiro, this is real right? Pinch me."

So he did. He could feel the pain. That's when he started jumping for joy. Things were finally looking up, his plans would move with much fluidity the more money he had.

"F*ck Hiro, we're rich!" A twisted grin was pasted on his face.

Hiro looked at him suspiciously. His friend has always been particular about spending gold in-game, he'd always warn everyone not to waste them, did he perhaps knew this was going to happen?

"Ki, did you know this was going to happen? Is that why you made us mine for many days, why you told us not to waste gold coins?"

Kiro looked at him warily. 'When did he get so sharp?' He thought about what to tell him, he'd already told him he was a regressor, he didn't believe him. There was no point in attempting it again. So he lied.

"Dummy, of course I didn't. How would I have?"

They were so happy that they had forgotten they were supposed to log into the game, the rest of the guys were waiting for them on the other side.

'Why aren't they here already? Didn't Kiro say he has some information about a dungeon, what could possibly be delaying them now. We need to show these people not trusting us was the wrong move.' Nikolai thought to himself.

They had created a group chat for after dark and agreed to login at 2pm but both of them were was late. But just then, a notification sounded.

Ding!

[Update. The game has been updated.

PvP rules have changed, your opponent will have the choice to accept or reject your challenge.

Guild Wars will be held once a month. If a guild is challenged, they will have no choice but to participate. Failure to do so will lead to the inevitable, losing your base to the enemy.

More dungeons and monsters are now available. Asgard is in even graver danger, it needs you heroes to step up and defend it.

New classes available. Go to the game's website to see them all.

In-game currency can now be exchanged to creds. 50creds are 1 gold coin. We the developers hope you continue playing. Thank you for the great support.]

'Mm? what do they mean by this.' Nikolai was still pondering the new updates.

"Does this mean we can use coins out there, in real life?" Felix was the only poor guy between the two, so with everything else that is all he saw.

"Oh yeah, you're right, there it is, it says you need to link your real bank account s it can be easier." Nikolai said perusing through the additional information.

"Yo, idiots!" Kiro shouted as they walked through the portal.

"Leader you're late. You're not setting a very good example for us." Ishaan said imitating Dr. Ramirez.

Kiro gave him a good smacking, "you're not in class now, be responsible for your damn self."

Nikolai really appreciated Kiro, he may not know it because he'd never tell him this but the guy, albeit with strange ways, he wasn't a bad leader for them.

"In-game currency can be exchanged for dens!? we're rich! we're rich!" Hiro shouted as if it were warcry.

Everyone there roared with laughter. As they discussed their way forward.

"It still stands, I expected they won't be as generous with coins now that it can be used as money. But whatever you make, half of it still belongs to After Dark. This applies to in-game coins." He told them seriously.

They nodded in understanding.

"So then the information about a dungeon?"

Kiro was unhappy all of a sudden with Ishaan's line of questioning. I mean, they had just received good news but all he wanted to talk about were dungeon runs. this chapter is NovelFire|le|mp|y r

He sighed. Understanding that, the kid was just, a rich brat. He didn't jump up and down like them in the presence of money, he was used to it.

"Ishaan, we will get to that later. Us paupers need to get rich first, alright?" He answered him while linking his bank account with his game account.

He wasn't being dismissive or anything, but his spectres weren't back yet with information. He wasn't worried, he could feel that they were still alive.

"Okay, okay. I have over 500 million coins, let me convert a 100 million and see how much that is." Kiro mumbled to himself.

Hiro could hear his friend's rumblings. He was still dumbfounded by the turn of events, he couldn't believe this. He could buy a house for his sister, brother and mother now! Not anywhere shabby either, like a real luxurious house!

"How much, how much do you think we should cash out?" He asked nervously

"I'll do 100 million, and leave the rest for game play." He answered.

"Okay, I'll do 100 million as well!"

Kiro was glad his suspicion receded. He could tell him the truth if he would believe it, but he didn't want to bring it up unless he could prove it.

He realised they had some skill books left which he quickly put up for auction. He left some skill books for Felix and Ishaan. Then they cashed out their money.
