Level 1 Player

Chapter 196 emergence of competitors

After occupying the dimension of the half-human, half-dragon, Hyunseong continued the dimension war more actively.

This is because it has become easier to invade the enemy dimension because we have secured a large number of enemy level 1 players.

The Yonginization skill, which had stopped growing, continued to grow little by little.

In the case of the Dragon Blood Sword, it was able to grow rapidly thanks to Bulmaru and the half-human and half-dragons.

Although they were players, Bullmas and the half-human and half-dragons were classified as dragons.

Thanks to this, the Dragon Blood Sword was able to grow by eating the dragon blood of the half-human, half-dragon, Bulmaru and its minions.

If there is one disappointment, if you absorb too much dragon blood, the stats of the half-human and half-dragons including Bulmarus will fall permanently.

Accordingly, Hyunseong had no choice but to stop absorbing the dragon blood of Bull Maru and the half-human half-dragon at an appropriate level.

This is because, if done wrong, a large-scale rebellion may occur.

‘Still, that’s enough.’

Bullmarus and half-human half-dragons are living creatures.

As time passed, the lost hemolysis was restored again.

As if operating a blood donation bus, Hyunseong continuously visited the dimension of the half-human and half-dragons and fed the dragon blood sword with dragon blood.

From Hyunseong’s point of view, it was as if he had obtained a vegetable garden where he could continuously grow dragon blood swords.

‘Let’s check the settlement this month.’

Hyunseong tried to calculate the sales revenue during that time.

“uh?”

Meanwhile, Hyunseong’s expression hardened.

‘what’s this?’

Sales fell horribly.

In particular, sales of electronic products sold to enemy players have plummeted.

‘What the hell is the reason?’

Hyunseong’s main selling products are cultural contents such as games, movies, dramas, novels, and cartoons.

However, it was the electronics that became the foundation.

No matter how many cultural contents Hyunseong sold, it would be useless if there were no electronic products to run it.

‘Is this what it looks like even after launching a new product?’

There was another strange thing.

‘Why did the sales of Kyo’s jewelery suddenly go up?’

Electronic products and the jewels of exchange were inseparable from each other.

This is because it was the jewel of exchange that played the role of the Internet connecting electronic products and electronic products.

As such, the sales of electronic products and jewelry in exchanges are often linked with each other.

‘Even though there has been a time when a lot of electronic products are sold and the sales of jewelry in exchanges have decreased, is this the first time the opposite has happened?’

Hyunseong’s face hardened seriously.

‘I’ve had signs of it before.’

Although the sales of electronic products decreased slightly, the sales of jewelry in exchanges increased.

But it was a small amount, so I didn’t have to worry too much about it.

Hyunseong also thought it was just a temporary phenomenon.

But this month, things suddenly changed.

Even with the launch of a new product, sales of electronic products fell to the extent that it could be called a surprise, and sales of jewelry in exchanges rose.

‘What is the cause?’

Hyunseong rolled his head.

However, for Hyunseong, it was not easy to determine the cause.

This is because Hyunseong could not directly access the enemy system shop.

‘I need to call Cairo.’I had to sit right next to him and try to figure out what caused this to happen.

Hyunseong immediately summoned Cairo using the Overlord’s Call skill.

Wrath!

With a bright glow, Cairo with a lot of jajang sauce on his lips appeared.

“What’s going on, Master?”

“Are you eating?”

“Yes that’s right. These days, I’m obsessed with earth food. Out of all the food I’ve ever eaten… … .”

Cairo gave praise for earth’s food every week.

But that wasn’t Hyunseong’s concern.

“Electronics sales have gone down too much.”

At Hyunseong’s words, Cairo put on a puzzled expression.

“It’s just a slight decrease, won’t it rise again over time?”

“However, the sales of exchange gems have increased even more.”

“Isn’t that possible?”

Cairo asked, tilting his head.

Hyunseong was heartbroken.

Cairo had no idea what the decline in electronics sales and the increased sales of jewelry in exchanges meant.

‘This guy doesn’t think and buys.’

Hyunseong grabbed his throbbing head and opened his mouth.

“It’s strange. I don’t have any electronic products, so I would have bought so many to use the exchange jewels for. Check out the reviews and figure out the cause.”

At Hyunseong’s instructions, Cairo drooped her ears and went into the system shop.

“I found it.”

And it wasn’t long before Cairo said he had found the cause.

“already?”

Hyunseong asked with a puzzled expression.

“Yes, it was in the reviews. Please wait a moment, my lord.”

With those words, Cairo bought some of her merchandise.

“This is it.”

“what’s this?”

Hyunseong looked at the small metal objects with a puzzled expression.

It didn’t feel like magic at all.

That meant it wasn’t an item.

“How to use it.”

Cairo pressed a button on one of the metal objects.

Wrath!

At that moment, the metal object created something out of nothing.

A large screen appeared with a bright light.

“what’s this?”

Hyunseong asked.

“They say it functions like a TV.”

“Does this function like a TV?”

“Yes.”

With those words, Cairo tapped the air.

Then, a translucent input window appeared in front of Cairo.

As Cairo manipulated the input window, the video started playing on the screen that unfolded in front of him.“What is this?”

Hyunseong could not easily wake up to the absurd situation unfolding before his eyes.

“They said it could be implemented in 3D.”

Cairo manipulated the translucent input window again.

Then, the image that was shown in the form of a screen was changed to 3D.

“There is more than this.”

Cairo bought items from the system store and showed them to Hyunseong.

Things in the form of rings or wristwatches surprisingly functioned similarly to TVs, smartphones, and computers.

What surprised me the most was that it was a hologram and yet it was touchable.

It is a hologram with quality enough to be considered virtual reality.

‘Even though you know it’s a hologram, it looks like the real thing. What if there was also physical power?’

It was also possible to turn reality into a game.

‘How is this possible?’

It was like magic.

It was a technology of the future that could only be seen in a movie.

“There is also this.”

It was nice to see Hyunseong surprised, so Cairo purchased various items and held a demonstration.

A feast of technology that could only be seen in the future hundreds of years later unfolded one after another in front of Hyunseong.

Hyunseong’s mouth widened and opened.

“It seems that sales of conventional electronic products have been low because of this. There is a big difference in portability and performance. I read the reviews, and they say that it is possible to apply a jewel of exchange to this electronic product.”

Hyunseong’s expression hardened like a stone.

In the past, Hyunseong has made huge profits by taking advantage of the monopoly.

However, a competitor has emerged.

Even a competitor presumed to have a scientific civilization superior to that of Earth.

‘I can’t stand still like this.’

Currently, we only sell items to the enemy level.

one over time?

Like Hyunseong, we will expand our sales network and enter the allies level.

Also, the enemy dimension was Hyunseong’s main source of income.

From Hyunseong’s point of view, he could never lose the huge market that was the main source of income and the enemy dimension, which accounted for half of the total size.

I had to write something.

* * *

‘Amazing, Great.’

Marcos’ face brightened.

‘It’s going to sell well.’

Marcos was a player who had recently awakened.

However, he fell into great despair when he saw the disastrous stats and the unique skills whose purpose of purchase and sale is unknown.

He changed his mind after accessing the Hana system shop.

I’ve seen bulky, extremely inefficient electronics being sold at ridiculously high prices.

Marcos sold the junk in his house for a high price.

And he made a lot of money.

After that, he also sold cultural products such as dramas, movies, novels, and cartoons.

‘It’s completely boring.’

He had no idea he could earn points so easily.

‘There is a competitor, but it is not at a level that will be a big problem.’He was confident enough to tread lightly on extremely inefficient electronics.

‘It’s enough to push cultural goods to sheep.’

Marcos started shopping with a happy expression on his face.

He used the profits he earned from selling electronic products and cultural goods to purchase elixirs and skill books.

“uh?”

A message he had never seen before came to mind before Marcos’s eyes.

-I received a complaint from the buyer, Cairo, who purchased the seller Marcos’s item. If complaints persist and accumulate, the seller’s rating may be reduced or business may be suspended. Please be careful. Would you like to read the complaint?

-[Yes No]

‘Did there ever be something like this? uh? But Cairo is a pretty familiar name, isn’t it?’

Marcos accessed the system shop.

‘also.’

He was a player selling inefficient electronics as a flagship.

‘Are you ignoring me? no. Let’s read it first.’

Marcos confirmed the complaint message.

XX’s old holographic TV – general grade complaint

– My name is Cairo, which sells electronic products. I am contacting you to make a business offer. It will be of great benefit to Marcos-sama, so I would appreciate your permission. Through the item called the jewel of exchange… … .

Marcos turned it off without reading all the complaint messages.

‘What is a partnership?’

Marcos was confident.

The confidence that the player named Cairo will lightly press on the products they sell and dominate the market premises.

To such Marcos, the Cairo business proposal was nothing but bullshit not worth worrying about.

* * *

“Still no reply?”

Hyunseong asked with an anxious expression.

“Yes, no.”

Cairo’s answer gave Hyunseong a headache.

‘What should I do?’

A new competitor has emerged.

For Hyunseong, the best thing is to hold hands with the other person.

There are not a hundred or ten first-level players selling electronics and cultural goods.

There are only two of them in all dimensions.

Then there was no need to fight each other.

If Hyunseong and Marcos join hands, they can easily dominate the entire market.

‘Is that a refusal?’

I thought that might be the case.

It is because cultural goods are out of the question, but in the case of electronic products, the performance of the goods sold by the player named Marcos was far superior to the goods from the earth sold by Hyunseong.

‘I can’t stand still.’

Other players couldn’t find a way to duplicate the electronics Marcos sold.

It was natural that the foundation of science had not been properly established.

However, the earth was different.

“For now, buy all the items and types that the player named Marcos sells.”

“Yes, Master.”

‘Let’s do some analysis.’

Electronic products that do not use horsepower.

To be honest, it was vague to call it an electronic product because it was impossible to determine whether electricity was used as a power source or whether an electronic board was used.

However, the system did not seem to be completely different from Earth.

The overall use was similar, and rather than building a civilization that was completely different from the Earth, it felt like we had built a civilization that was more advanced than the Earth.

‘It could be produced on Earth.’

Of course, that would be impossible right now.

But whether it took 10 years or 20 years, it had to be done.

Even if it means changing time, money, and all the world’s best scholars.

* * *

Marcos excitedly sold away electronics and cultural goods.

As a result, Marcos was able to grow rapidly in an instant.

That was then.

-I received a complaint from the buyer Saukrani who purchased the seller Marcos’s item. If complaints persist and accumulate, the seller’s rating may be reduced or business may be suspended. Please be careful. Would you like to read the complaint?

-[Yes No]

Another complaint came.

‘Isn’t that Cairo or something?’

A complaint came from someone I didn’t know.

‘uh?’

-I received a complaint from the buyer Saukrani who purchased the seller Marcos’s item. If complaints persist and accumulate, the seller’s rating may be reduced or business may be suspended. Please be careful. Would you like to read the complaint?

-[Yes No]

… … aftermath… …

Then the complaint came again.

That too in succession.

‘What the hell is this?’

Marcos couldn’t quite understand why the player named Saukrani made a complaint.

‘Let’s read it first.’

Marcos confirmed the complaint message.

XX company holographic watch – general grade complaint

– In the future, try to sell it at half the price of the current sale price. The sale time is exactly 12 hours from now. You will regret it if you don’t listen to me.

XX company holographic watch – general grade complaint

– In the future, try to sell it at half the price of the current sale price. The sale time is exactly 12 hours from now. You will regret it if you don’t listen to me.

… … aftermath… …

They all had the same threats written on them.

And after a while.

-Complaints have been received for 3,724 items out of a total of 5,321 items for sale. 70% of all sales items were registered as temporary defective products. You have been suspended for 3 days. Resolve complaints within a week. Otherwise, temporary defective products will be registered as permanent defective products and may be subject to business suspension for 3 months.

Marcos was in danger of being shut down.

* * *

‘Is that a refusal?’

Saukrani shook her head with a natural expression.

‘One will have no choice but to surrender in the end.’

In fact, it wasn’t the first time he had done something like this.

A new level of newbie appears and sells new items?

Then just kill it using Complain and that’s it.

‘I’m going to say no now, but if I get a business suspension for about three months, I will change my mind.’

A sinister smile appeared on the corner of Saukrani’s lips.

He has grown up trampling on numerous newbies.

However, there has never been a newbie who had the smell of a big hit like this one.

‘A guy named Cairo made a huge hit in selling electronics.’In the case of Cairo, Saukrani was not an opponent that could be helped.

This is because the quantity of goods sold itself was not at the level of 100, but at the level of tens of thousands.

Although there were many points of Saukrani, it was not enough to complain about buying 70% of the expensive products that sold tens of thousands and the cumulative sales were estimated to be tens to hundreds of millions.

Perhaps if he had done that, Saukrani’s point would have exposed the bottom first.

‘The case of Cairo was special.’

Cairo probably didn’t wake up from the level of having electronic products, but after growing up to a certain extent, he took over and sold electronic products, whether they were friendly or enemy.

Saukrani’s guess was quite accurate.

Except that Cairo did not occupy the dimension where electronic products could be sold, but instead came under the control of Hyunseong, the monarch of the dimension capable of selling electronic products.

‘Never miss it.’

Unlike Cairo, who is supposed to be deceased, Marcos is a newbie.

Only 100 items were sold in total.

Cumulative sales are only a few thousand copies.

With that amount of sales, it was possible to seize the amount with the points of four hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

‘I can’t miss this opportunity.’’

I was 100% sure it was going to be a hit.

To that extent, Saukrani had no intention of backing down even if it was to pour out all of his fortune.

* * *

‘What do we do?’

Marcos rolled his head to solve the crisis before his eyes.

‘We have to sell more quantities first.’

Marcos wasn’t stupid either.

Therefore, Cairo, like the seller, sold a power source that could drive electronic products separately.

‘Let’s try it.’

Marcos started selling merchandise again.

Since there was no way his opponent could solve the complaint, he was planning to sell a larger quantity to nullify the complaint.

But there is a problem.

‘what’s this?’

Every electronic product Marcos sold was listed at a lower price.

‘Sauk-ah, this child.’

The culprit was Samakrani, who threatened Marcos.

Saukrani was the person who bought more than 70% of the items Marcos sold.

He, of course, had everything Marcos sold.

The problem didn’t end there.

– The registered item has been sold.

– The registered item has been sold.

– The registered item has been sold.

… … aftermath… …

-I received a complaint from the buyer Saukrani who purchased the seller Marcos’s item. If complaints persist and accumulate, the seller’s rating may be reduced or business may be suspended. Please be careful. Would you like to read the complaint?

-[Yes No]

… … aftermath… …

Saukrani bought all the items Marcos posted.

And he made a complaint right away.

‘Let’s do this.’

Marcos grinded his teeth.

I had something prepared for this.It was just new.

The plan was to sell more efficient electronic products and large-capacity batteries to turn Saukrani’s purchases into garbage.

Marcos immediately carried out the plan.

He also set the price for the new product incredibly high.

So much so that it is burdensome to buy them all.

However… … .

– The registered item has been sold.

– The registered item has been sold.

– The registered item has been sold.

… … aftermath… …

-I received a complaint from the buyer Saukrani who purchased the seller Marcos’s item. If complaints persist and accumulate, the seller’s rating may be reduced or business may be suspended. Please be careful. Would you like to read the complaint?

-[Yes No]

… … aftermath… …

The samurai didn’t even flinch.

No matter how much the price was raised or sold, even if a new product was introduced, Marcos bought all the items without asking or questioning them, and then complained.

As a result… … .

-Complaints have been received for 47,562 items out of a total of 52,729 items for sale. 90% of all sales items were registered as temporary defective products. You have been suspended for 3 days. Resolve complaints within 4 days. Otherwise, temporary defective items will be registered as permanent defective items and will be subject to business suspension for 3 months.

The phrase ‘You may be subject to business suspension for three months’ has been changed to ‘You may be subject to business suspension for three months.’

‘Damn it.’

Marcos put more items at a higher price.

However, Saukrani did not hesitate to purchase the items Marcos had sold.

As a result, points were earned enormously.

-Accumulated acquisition points have exceeded 300 billion points.

– The mercenary system is now available.

This is because the accumulated acquisition points exceeded 300 billion points in an instant.

But what would you do?

It looks like the business has been shut down.

Marcos resisted and resisted as best as he could.

But in the end… … .

– Failed to resolve complaints on time. Temporary defective items are registered as permanent defective items. The business was suspended for 3 months.

Marcos was put on a business suspension.

* * *

‘Did you end up with a business suspension?’

Hyunseong shook his head as he read the report he received through Cairo.

He knew that a competitor named Marcos was being attacked by a man named Saukrani.

‘Wherever you go, there are these guys.’

Hyunseong also met a repalem named Crow in the past and fought a war.

Hyunseong won the war against Dopalem proudly.

Although he had a good strategy and tactics, the decisive factor in the victory was the fact that Crow Raphalem was burdened with excessive point investment and withdrew in the middle.

Hana Saukrani already knew the ripple effect of electronic products.

As such, he never backed down and poured huge points to win.

Marcos, who was Hyunseong’s competitor, was shattered by the tyranny of a man with huge capital.

‘not bad.’

There was nothing wrong with Hyunseong.

No, on the contrary, I thought that this would be a great help in attracting Marcos to the team.‘It’s difficult to develop your own right now anyway.’

Hyunseong gathered scholars from all over the world to direct the research of electronic products purchased from Marcos’ dimension.

However, it was so obvious that they did not even understand the driving principle, let alone make them similar.

It will be resolved over time, but for Hyunseong, it was more beneficial to join hands with Marcos than to lose money during that time.

“How many samples have we purchased?”

“Over 1,000 in total.”

“Try contact through Complaint. As soon as the conversation is over, cancel the complaint.”

“Okay, Master.”

Complaint Girl, over 1,000 items?

‘That means there are a thousand chances to convince Marcos.’

There is an old saying that there is no tree that cannot be cut down ten times.

What if you take a thousand shots instead of ten?

No matter how strong a tree is, it will have no choice but to climb over it.

‘There must be a different mental state than before.’

business was suspended

However, if he stays still like this, he will lose everything to the enemy who shut him down.

What if a fair collaboration offer comes in in this situation?

My heart couldn’t help but be shaken.

* * *

‘What do we do?’

Marcos, who was suspended from business, fell into deep despair.

When I first found out about the existence of the system store, I felt like I had the whole world.

This is because, on his level, common items that are widely spread around were traded at a great price in the system store.

He said, ‘I thought he was going to be the best player in the world very soon.’

He never expected that such a problem would arise.

After being suspended, Marcos was forced to suck his fingers only for three months.

The bigger problem was that 3 months could be 6 months or 60 months.

That was then.

-I received a complaint from the buyer, Cairo, who purchased the seller Marcos’s item. If complaints persist and accumulate, the seller’s rating may be reduced or business may be suspended. Please be careful. Would you like to read the complaint?

-[Yes No]

“Damn it!”

I couldn’t even sell the product, but another complaint came in.

“uh?”

But it wasn’t Saekrani who made the complaint.

‘Cairo.’

A level 1 player who proposed a partnership with him.

At that time, I thought it was an absurd proposal and closed it without even reading the contents of the complaint.

But now I think a little differently.

Because he met a robber named Saukrani.

Cairo and Saukrani both coveted their electronic devices.

One side was politely proposing a partnership, and the other side was trying to make Marcos a slave by pushing the points.

‘Let’s read it.’

Marcos checked the contents of the complaint sent by Cairo.

Old holographic watch from XX – General grade complaint

– This is Cairo, whom I proposed to do business with before. There is no reply, so I will contact you again. I have no intention of making any proposals that will harm Marcos. I have an item called a jewel of exchange… … I think that we can coexist with Marcos-sama through various methods. Among the many dimensions, it is only me and Marcos-sama who are holding the weapon of electronics. Do we really need to fight each other in a bloody contest? If you join me, we can be winners together.

After reading all the lengthy complaints, Marcos entered Django.
