A game where you have to pay to win? But I have a lifespan roulette wheel!

Jiang Lin felt that this task was not difficult.

What a pity~~~

He underestimated the amount of hypocrites in this world.

Normal people assume that everyone around them is normal.

Those who, when faced with a life-or-death crisis, shout "I was wrong, I was wrong!" and know fear are actually normal people.

The Free City has been facing too many troubles lately.

Moreover, given his relationship with the Beast King, the residents who have returned to participate in the reconstruction are all somewhat conscientious.

Jiang Lin has no intention of causing trouble in the Free City.

He was considering whether to go to another city.

Or perhaps it's better to return home in glory and visit Earth.

It's evening of the fourth day now. Judging by the time, Liang Zhong's side will probably need to restock again.

Jiang Lin decided to log off and take a look.

I just logged off.

Then I saw Lu Keke sitting in his beloved little nest.

"Holy crap, what are you doing in my house???"

Lu Keke glared at Jiang Lin with annoyance.

"Didn't you tie me up the whole time last time?!"

"Oh, is that so?"

That seems to be the case.

Last time, during that disguise mission, Jiang Lin disguised himself as Lu Keke.

To keep her from running around, I always keep her by my side.

At this moment, Lu Keke looked at Jiang Lin with a mixture of shame and indignation, not because she felt ashamed for being caught at Jiang Lin's house.

Instead, she remembered the gift Jiang Lin had given her before!

"Damn it! What's the meaning of that thing you gave me?!"

"Something? Oh~ that's something I made with great care, how's it? With this, you'll never need to buy sanitary napkins again."

"Thank you so much!"

Lu Keke was so angry her teeth itched.

How can there be such an unromantic man!

Jiang Lin touched his nose.

That thing is clearly very functional.

Practical and durable!

Isn't that enough?

Still not satisfied? Women are such a hassle.

"Okay, okay, since we're all offline now, how about we go grab something to eat together?"

Let's change the subject.

"Have a meal?"

Is he making a date with himself?

Lu Keke's expression changed. Was she trying to apologize?

She's fairly sensible, but...

"Are there still people selling things now? With the advent of pay-to-win games, you'll die if you don't earn more lifespan."

"Just go out and see for yourself."

Given the speed at which Earthlings adapt, they should soon realize that fighting monsters is not the only way to extend one's lifespan.

Lifespan has become the sole currency, but while the currency has changed, the fundamental principles of commerce remain the same.

Once they reached the street, both of them put on masks.

Lu Keke is a celebrity, which is perfectly understandable.

Jiang Lin, huh?

Jiang Lin just committed murder on live stream, and now is the time for his live stream clips to go viral, so it's best to keep a low profile.

As Jiang Lin had predicted, things turned out exactly as he had expected.

The Blue Star adapts at an extraordinary speed. If there are stalls in pay-to-win games, there can naturally be one on the Blue Star as well.

There are many small vendors outside the gate of the residential area.

For example, a classic among classics: hand-whipped lemon tea.

Original price: 8 to 15 RMB.

It's currently priced at 20 minutes.

There are also 25s available, but the price hasn't stabilized yet.

normal phenomenon.

"I'm a big star, you don't expect me to just eat at a roadside stall, do you?"

Jiang Lin gave Lu Keke a disgruntled look.

"If you want a nice meal, it has to be available when the restaurant is open."

It's understandable that these small vendors set up stalls nowadays; they play games all day, get tired, and then set up a stall at night.

Anyway, it's all about working for yourself and making your own money.

However, those fancy restaurants require the owner to pay them. Although some people buy back gold, the government has exchanged too much of it at once. The main source of income for others is still from fighting monsters.

Those bosses can't accumulate that much lifespan in a short time.

Upon hearing this, Lu Keke thought for a moment.

"You're right, it's already pretty good that there are even roadside stalls open."

Men are a strange species.

It's not that I'm unwilling to take pretty women out for fancy meals.

However, he would feel even more accomplished if this beautiful woman were willing to eat at a roadside stall with him.

There's really no special reason.

The fact that someone would agree to work at a roadside stall shows that what wins them over is not their wealth, but their personal charisma.

Actually, this double standard exists between both men and women.

Women will seek out men who can provide emotional value in exchange for money, and they will seek out wealthy men who can provide emotional value.

Men just want to be rich so they can keep dating 18-year-old girls, while hoping that the girls aren't after their money.

Hahahahaha.

Jiang Lin is a superficial person anyway.

The two chose to eat barbecue.

Because it's braised pork intestines with scallions, it's Lu Keke's favorite dish.

I used to be unable to indulge myself in order to maintain my figure.

Nowadays, as professionals, people don't need to worry about their physique going out of shape. Unless someone has a particular fetish, everyone can have a fit and healthy body.

It is foreseeable that the gym industry will disappear forever.

Earth is still very interesting now.

It's like a comic convention, everywhere you go on the street, everyone is dressed in weird and wonderful outfits.

A child at the next table looked on with envy at the gear his parents were wearing.

"Dad, your gear is so cool! When can I get into this pay-to-win game? I want to be a player too!"

pity.

"Kill Life Game" is an 18+ game.

"Hey, did you buy the job change scroll directly in the game? Or did you buy it from the government? A job change scroll from the government only lasts for a month, which is much cheaper than in the game!"

"Of course I'd buy the country's property. My lifespan isn't something that just appears out of thin air."

"Haha, I should be able to accumulate enough lifespan by tomorrow and switch to a regular job. When the invasion portal opens, my chances of survival should be higher."

"Don't be afraid. If we can't beat them, we'll just log into the game. I've seen how friendly the players in the main city are to us."

"You know nothing! They're friendly because we're still in the newbie protection period. Apparently, many years ago, newly joined civilizations never had a good time. They wouldn't offer any help at all. Until one time, an experienced player targeted a new civilization, and a being called the King of Sin was born. The king was tortured until he was the only one left in the entire civilization, and then he started to take revenge. Everyone couldn't take it anymore. Since then, everyone has followed a rule: invade normally when you invade, but in the early game, you're not allowed to restrict other people's development. Otherwise, who knows when another King of Vengeance will be born, and that would be hilarious."

"Not only that, not only that, I heard there's also the story of the Beast King here. The city he built is called the City of Freedom. Inside, there are homeless wanderers who couldn't defend their own territory because their own civilization failed to do so. They're quite friendly."

"Wait a minute? I heard that the main force of the invasion will be those who don't have territory?"

"Oh, you don't know anything. Those invaders, even if they don't have their own territory, must still have some power to invade other worlds. The civilizations in the Freedom City are just insignificant. They're just a few isolated individuals in the entire civilization. What are they going to invade?"

"So that's how it started. I wonder if our Earth civilization can survive this."

"Don't worry, it'll definitely work. We withstood the invasion of foreign powers back then, so we'll definitely work this time too. Besides, the country is selling job-changing scrolls at such a low price right now, we can't afford to lose."
