《Online Game: I Possess a Monster Merging Simulator!》Chapter 98: Selling the Purification Crystals!
Advertisement
Because many players saw the potential of the antidote potion, they bought it in large quantities.
Before long, the third batch of potions was sold out.
These three batches of potions had a total of 300,000 bottles, bringing him an income of 12,000 gold coins.
To be honest, even Super Rich was shocked by the speed at which he made money.
It had only been three days since he started operating.
In just three days, he had earned 50 to 60 million net income. This efficiency was comparable to a large corporation with tens of thousands of people.
This was not all of Leader Tyrant's income. Super Rich knew very well that there were still 300,000 Purification Crystals in Tyrant's inventory. The value of this batch of goods was much higher than the potions. If he sold all of them, he could earn at least 200 million.
...
At this moment, Lorne put up the last batch of potions he had.
The price was then 10 silver coins!
Instantly, the entire scene was in an uproar.
"F*ck, 10 silver coins? Why don't you rob me instead?"
"The price doubled while I was drinking water?!"
"This is too f*cking ridiculous!"
"You call this giving back to society? Pfft!"
"Unscrupulous merchant!"
"This kind of antidote only costs one silver coin per bottle in the shop of Iron Skull City. If you sell it for 10 silver coins now, won't your conscience hurt at 10 times the price?"
"Even robbing a bank can't get as much money…"
All the players' emotions exploded.
They collectively condemned Lorne for his immoral behavior.
But at that moment, Lorne spoke in the chat, explaining that this batch of potions was the last batch of antidotes he had and that there would not be too many in the next few days.

Therefore, they had to buy it as soon as possible!
Hearing this news, the players continued cursing incessantly.
However, countless players came to the scene to trade with Lorne.
...
"F*ck, I've never eaten such an expensive medicine in real life…"
"Being exploited by large capitalists in reality and being exploited by Tyrant in the game, it's really hard for people to live…"
"You unscrupulous merchant, quickly give me 500 bottles of potion!"
"This kind of person is really detestable. Boss, I want 1,000 bottles…"
They cursed as they traded.
In fact, compared to them, Lorne was not a profiteer.
Because after a while, this batch of potions bought at the price of 10 silver coins per bottle would definitely be sold to other players at a higher price.
Therefore, the real profiteers were them.
...
10 silver coins for a bottle of potion was a very high price, so the selling speed decreased a lot.
It took him an hour to sell all of them.
Lorne made 10,000 gold coins.
At this moment, there were no antidotes left in his bag.
However, he still opened the regional chat channel.
"Hey~ Brothers and sisters of Iron Skull City, in order to let everyone carry out the mission in the ruins of the war in peace, I have once again spent a huge sum of money to transport a batch of antidotes from Iron Skull City. Those who want to buy them can go to this location (click for coordinates). The quantity is limited, so the sale can stop at any moment."
Damn!!!
Upon hearing this information, all the players who had bought the antidote surrounded Lorne in fury.
Because he had said that this was the last batch of antidotes, everyone endured the expensive price and bought these potions.

But now, Tyrant was selling another batch.
Wouldn't the players who had accumulated a large stock of potions lose so much that they would not have a penny left after this?
"Damn you, didn't you say that was the last batch of antidotes?"
"That's right. To think that we trusted you so much!"
"Evil merchant, return my hard-earned money!"
"Return my hard-earned money!"
A group of players began to question Lorne, trying to use a collective voice to pressure him to return the silver coins he had cheated.
However, Lorne calmly organized his items.
"Friends, I'm not lying to you. That is indeed the last batch of antidote I have."
"Then why are you selling more potions?" A player was furious.
"Please look carefully, this is not an antidote," Lorne smiled as he said.
Then, he sent the information picture of the Purification Crystal to the chat.
When they saw the information, all the "stockholders" felt despair.
This tool was even more effective than the antidote!
One crystal could ensure that a player was not corroded by darkness for seven days.
In this case, wouldn't the antidote in their hands be unsellable?
Without these Purification Crystals, they could still sell these potions again for 11-12 silver coins in the next few days.
But now, it was impossible.
Not to mention a dozen silver coins, it was hard to say if they could even keep the price of 10 silver coins.
If the number of Purification Crystals in Tyrant's hands was large, the value of the antidote would plummet. At that time, it might drop to three silver coins or even lower.
As for them, the players who had accumulated a large amount of potions, they would lose everything.
...
"30 silver coins for a Purification Crystal. It can last for seven days and prevent the Dark Corrosion from affecting you. This seems to be much more cost-effective than the potion."
"I want one!"
"Give me three!"
"Boss, give me ten!"
"…"
In the entire expeditionary army camp, there were 100,000 players in the first batch alone.
After another three days of travel, many players in the main city had already reached Level 20. They had set off two days ago and were gradually reaching the ruins of the war.
Up until now, the second batch of Level 20 players had also arrived. Therefore, there were at least 200,000 players in the current expeditionary army camp.
In the next few days, this number would multiply.
Therefore, there was no need for Lorne to worry about sales. These items would be sold out soon.
As expected, the Purification Crystals worth 30 silver coins were sold out in a short period of time.
The Purification Crystals brought him 30,000 gold coins.
The previous antidote sale had given him 22,000 gold coins.
In addition, there were 200,000 Purification Crystals in Lorne's pocket.
After selling all these crystals, Lorne would really become a true billionaire overnight. It would be wonderful.

When tragedy strikes Arcturus Valoura, he is ripped from his carefree existence and thrown into a world of politics and peril, where today's friend is tomorrow's foe. Bereft of the knowledge and skills needed to survive in his new reality, he will need to find his place within a realm that mixes magic and science in impossible ways. He will need to learn the secrets of the mysterious System that allows him to guide his potential for growth even as he struggles to unlock the powers needed to keep himself alive. In the darkest, and most desolate places of an ancient land he will have to find the answers to forbidden questions, and terrible secrets long purged from the histories of mankind. And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.
