Chapter 116 – If you become rich, do not forget me


The exam papers were not finished, but the students had already taken charge and sorted out the rankings.

Moreover.

It was done through trading, which could no longer be considered as breaking the exam rules, but rather trampling on them.

Yao Tong and the others were amazed that skills could be bought and sold to improve rankings.

Du Ge’s next words shocked them again: “Yao Tong, give me five points of power, and I’ll sell you the first place in the simulation field.”

At that moment.

The air seemed to stop flowing.

“Sell it to me… me, first place?” After a while, Yao Tong finally regained his senses and looked at Du Ge, stuttering and unable to speak fluently, “Brother… Brother Hu, are you joking?”

“What am I joking about?” Du Ge gave him a disdainful look, “You’re so useless. Do you want to buy it or not?”

“Is it really possible?” Yao Tong was greatly surprised, his body swayed for a moment, and he steadied himself by holding onto the table behind him. He pursed his lips, “Brother Hu, what will you do if you sell the first place to me?”

“What do you care about me?” Du Ge said, “If I think it’s not suitable, I’ll buy it back. If you don’t sell it to me, I’ll kill you and reset your attributes.”

There were countless feedbacks from various agents, and Du Ge’s attributes had long surpassed the previous simulation field.

Ten Yao Tongs were no match for him. He had full confidence to say such words.

He had to make it clear, could the first place be sold?

Yao Tong choked for a moment, completely calm down, and forced a smile, muttering, “Can I buy it? After all, the power was given to me by you…”

As soon as he finished speaking.

The transaction was completed.

Du Ge’s personal ranking in the list turned into a question mark, and the ranking of 287 remained in a tradable position. He was stunned for a moment, what’s wrong, was there a bug?

But the skill was still there, and Du Ge looked at Bao Benwei who was in a daze, “Five points of power, sell me your ranking.”

Bao Benwei recovered and nodded eagerly, “Deal.”

At the moment the transaction was completed, Du Ge’s personal ranking position changed to: 449/449. In just half a day, four people were eliminated from the simulation field.

With the appearance of the new ranking, Du Ge breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Yao Tong, who was staring blankly at his personal panel, and asked, “Little Yao, does it feel good to be first?”

“Golden.” Yao Tong said blankly.

“Any other changes?” Du Ge asked.

“It rewarded me with thirty points of mental power.” Yao Tong turned his stiff neck and looked at Du Ge, grinning foolishly, “The reward for first place is so high.”

“…” Du Ge was stunned. Did they only reward mental power for first place?

“Thirty points of mental power?” Bao Benwei exclaimed, realizing it, and quickly rushed to Du Ge with a flattering smile, “Uncle Du, Brother Hu, Brother Qi, lend me the first place to play with, I also want mental power.”

Du Ge hadn’t spoken yet.

Yao Tong’s expression changed again, “Brother Hu, my ranking is dropping.”

“I see.” Du Ge’s personal panel had been open all along. He was originally ranked 452, but after a two-minute pause, the ranking number started to scroll up, 451, 450…

In less than twenty seconds, it returned to the shiny golden first place.

But this time, the mental power did not increase.

“Two minutes.”

Du Ge looked at himself, who had returned to first place, and estimated the system’s refresh time.

The system’s ranking was constantly refreshing, and even if he traded away the first place, the other party would not be able to maintain it. If their attributes and influence were not enough, their ranking would drop back.

“It’s 288.” Yao Tong smiled bitterly, “Indeed, without strength, the bought ranking cannot be maintained.”

“What about the mental power?” Du Ge asked.

“…” Yao Tong was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at his personal panel, blinked, and joyfully said, “The rewarded mental power is still there.”

Bao Benwei was stunned.

Du Ge had already expected such an expression, he sneered and said, “Indeed, the rewards given by the simulation field will not be taken back. This should be considered as data overflow!”

“Brother Hu, did your mental power increase after returning to first place?” Yao Tong asked.

“No, it’s still the same as before the reward.” Du Ge said.

“There’s a loophole.” Bao Benwei rubbed his hands and said, “Even alien technology has loopholes. Brother Hu, you’ve discovered a loophole in alien technology, you’re amazing.”

“Brother Hu, I now have 62 mental power. If I trade with you again, won’t your mental power be infinitely stacked?” Yao Tong said, “Let’s find a few more candidates to trade with, and we can increase your mental power to hundreds or even thousands. With hundreds or thousands of mental power, you’ll be invincible on the alien star battlefield. Maybe after this simulation field ends, you’ll be directly promoted to a warrior.”

“That’s right, Brother Hu, let’s do it!” Bao Benwei said, “At this time, rankings no longer have any meaning. Let’s use skills to create a warrior with extremely high mental power. The country should give us some special treatment!”

“Even if there’s no special treatment, Brother Hu becoming a warrior and promoting us to be stewards or something, we won’t have to worry for the rest of our lives!” Yao Tong said excitedly, “Brother Hu, let’s do it. I’m Wang Yunwei from Class 5 of Grade 1 in No. 43 Middle School. If you become a warrior, you must remember me!”

“Brother Hu, I’m Xu Sheng from Class 7 of Grade 1 in No. 41 Middle School.” Bao Benwei also immediately reported his name. After discovering the bug, their minds were no longer on the simulation field. They only wanted to pull connections and take the back door!

I’ve tried every possible way to get rid of this first place, but you two insist on forcing me to go to the simulation field!

You bastards!”If I back down from something that benefits our race, what would those watching the replay think of me?

I’m a native of your planet, so it’s understandable. But I’m an outsider, at most a mercenary. I don’t have that much of a sense of racial sentiment with you all!”

Looking at the two excited men, Du Ge was so annoyed that his teeth itched, but he dared not show too much of it. He said seriously, “What good are you thinking? If the Simulation Field on Qi Yuan Star can have a BUG, can’t an alien civilization have one too? Maybe someone else has already done this.

Moreover, can an Alien Star Battlefield be won by one person? The Alien Star Battlefield always relies on the power of the team. Instead of trading all your mental power to me, it’s better to use this loophole to cultivate more high-mental-power soldiers for the country.”

“But I think Brother Hu alone can control the field!” Yao Tong said.

You’re still talking!

I’ve been so good to you, and you’re trying to push me into the fire?

When I’m dead, you’ll step on my bones to enjoy the good life, won’t you?

You’ve got a good plan.

Du Ge glared at him and passed the blame, “Yao Tong, I know what you’re thinking. You just want me to become a soldier, to give you a boost, to make you successful, right?”

“…” Yao Tong smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.

“Have you ever thought that if I die on the Alien Star Battlefield, even if I pull you up at that time, can you hold on to the family business I left behind?” Du Ge asked.

“Brother Hu is so powerful, how could he die?” Yao Tong scratched his head.

“I got first place in the last Simulation Field because I randomly got a good Keyword. This time I got first place because the Simulation Field had a BUG. You guys don’t really think I’m that great, do you?

In the end, I’m just like you, a first-year newbie. If there’s one thing that’s different, it’s probably because I’ve had some dumb luck. Give me a useless Keyword, and I won’t be able to play. The country won’t trust an eighteen-year-old kid on the battlefield, will they?”

Du Ge gave a bitter smile and smeared himself, “As I said, if the Simulation Field can have a loophole on Qi Yuan Star, it can have one on other planets. Who can predict what will happen on the Alien Star Battlefield?

Only by cultivating more talents can the win rate on the Alien Star Battlefield be higher. After all, more people mean more Keywords, not just pinning hopes on me. And, if the Simulation Field’s BUG this time results in the scores being invalidated and the accumulated mental power being deducted…”

Yao Tong and Bao Benwei’s excitement was suppressed by Du Ge’s words. The two looked at each other and sighed in unison, “Brother Hu is more thoughtful.”

“So, we can’t put all our eggs in one basket. Since we’ve found the BUG, the best thing to do is to let more people benefit.” Du Ge looked at the two and smiled, “Wang Yunwei, Xu Cheng, since we’re destined to be together, why don’t we form a new alliance? In the future, no matter who becomes a soldier and succeeds, we should think of helping each other. What do you think?”

“Of course, there’s no problem. Brother Hu is generous.” The invitation from the first person in the Simulation Field, the two naturally had no reason to refuse. After all, Du Ge’s chances of becoming a soldier were much higher than theirs.

“Good.” Du Ge extended his hand and smiled, “If we become rich and honored, let’s not forget each other.”

Slap!

Slap!

Two hands fell on the back of Du Ge’s hand, “If we become rich and honored, let’s not forget each other.”
