I'm just an internet cafe owner

A new map has been released: King's Canyon.

Two new maps have been added to the snowy mountains: Buwanga Training Grounds and Ice Dragon Skasa's Nest. New costumes, new items, and special holiday gift packs are also included. The Abyss system has been added to DNF, allowing players to challenge stronger opponents in random Abyss dungeons using tickets or by forming a party.

Destroying the Abyss Pillars will spawn Abyss Demons, followed by various trials. These trials include data simulations from NPCs and other players. Challenging the Abyss offers a chance to obtain Epic equipment and Cosmic Souls, making it a fantastic challenge for players who enjoy constantly growing stronger.

Anyway, holiday gift packs aren't released on a single day for any given holiday, so it doesn't really matter to internet cafe customers. Most customers have money to burn, and some, while on a tighter budget, see the price of the gift pack—300 yuan a set? That's damn cheap! They'll buy ten sets, just to have some fun with the game.

Yes, the minimum is ten sets, not ten sets per account, but ten sets per character. Hundreds of sets are possible, given the incredibly low drop rate for crafting Sky Sets in internet cafes. Even more alarming is that all the drop rates for DNF (Dungeon Fighter Online) gear sold in internet cafes are genuine.

How terrifying is the true probability? Take enhancement as an example. The upgrade from 12 to 13 is clearly marked. One percent is one percent. It won't be deliberately written as 30 percent and then said to be the server probability.

The probability of synthesizing the Sky Set is also unpredictable. Someone has calculated that even in the worst-case scenario, it would require around 200,000 attempts, and so far no one has broken that 200,000-attempt limit for a certain "Hedgehog Head" set. Most people synthesize it with just 10,000 or 20,000 attempts.

"I just got the new version update? Let me see what my Summoner Awakening is!"

Agumon was the happiest of all the Digimon when it saw the Awakening feature released in DNF. The Priestess's eyes widened as she watched the male and female priests awaken.

"Ah! Apokalli???"

"Apokreik?"

"Yes, Apokreik!"

Each class has its own awakening ability, but this awakening has brought joy to some and sorrow to others. With both active and passive awakenings, the character's strength has increased significantly.

However! The awakening quest is exceptionally difficult.

Complete the Lava Cave, the King's Ruins, and the Bilmak Empire Test Grounds all by yourself.

These are minor issues; the biggest problem is the Boken doll.

Yes, for many people, the hardest part of awakening isn't actually completing the game. Completing it? You can just grind it out slowly. If you can't get past that, you have resurrection coins. If you disable resurrection coins, you can use potions. You'll eventually get through it.

Moreover, by constantly improving one's skills during combat, one can feel the enhancement of one's own power and feel great satisfaction in completing missions.

The real pain is opening the jars, and the awakening quest has a really annoying task: opening the clay pot doll. Opening this thing requires red crystals and money, and the probability is not 100%. There is a high probability of opening the Boken doll, a certain probability of opening the title, and a very low probability of opening the clay pot doll.

As a result, many people got stuck.

However, generally speaking, as long as you spend a lot of money to buy materials, you will eventually be able to open the clay pot to make a doll.

With the appearance of the abyss, the people in the internet cafe began their challenge of the abyss.

Everyone carefully read the Abyss update, and the epic equipment stats were making everyone envious. Especially the Shadowless Sword from the Ghost Knight series; according to the internet cafe patrons, it's practically a god-tier weapon.

In addition, the Abyss also has a very high drop rate of powder items. Even without getting an epic item, the drop rate of powder items can make players rich overnight.

While players are happily grinding through the Abyss, the combat experiences of many people in the real world have also changed due to the introduction of Awakening Skills.

For example, in the new map, the Abyss of the Ice Dragon Skasa, the Priestess is constantly fighting while wielding her hammer.

"The Light of Faith!"

"God's teachings!"

"Follow God's will, and victory will be yours..."

Seeing her teammates all fall and the powerful enemy emerging from the abyss, the Priestess changed her fighting style, grabbing the cross and pulling out a hammer formed of holy light from behind her.

"Follow the will of God, victory... never mind, Apocalypse!!! The Hammer of Repentance!"

This kind of thing keeps happening in every corner of internet cafes. As the saying goes, the support role is always there while the DPS role is always there. The original male and female paladins can only increase the combat power of their teammates by about 25% and greatly increase the margin for error.

However, due to the awakening, both male and female paladins can nearly double their teammates' damage output. But a problem arises: while damage output is significantly increased, the enemies in the Abyss are also extremely powerful. Furthermore, the Ice Dragon Skasa is no pushover, and players' physical limitations in the game lead to frequent instances of sudden death.

At this point, the paladin in the team plays a powerful role. This is because players in internet cafes typically use both male and female skills, and what they shout when casting spells in the game doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter whether you release a female paladin who calls herself Apocalypse or a male priest who calls himself following God's will.

Because it is a dual-class system, people tend to shout "follow the will of God" when they are purely supporting, but when their teammates are all dead, the paladins take out their crosses and start to fight the enemy head-on.

While there was a head-on clash, some discordant voices also emerged within the internet cafe.

"Wait? Captain? Why did the healer you placed get a cross on the map?"

"Captain! The milk you released has turned into a demon!"

"Dad? Why did you unleash your dogs in the map?"

Because the four classes of priests look similar, many people who release people often have poor eyesight and end up releasing some healers like the Ground-Stabbing Healer, Transformation Healer, and Dog-Slaying Healer.

However, these are minor issues for the customers of internet cafes. After all, it's easier to pass with a support character (like a healer), but most players can pass even without one.

Furthermore, those who play the Priest class progression system are highly skilled and possess strong combat abilities, so people just joke about it and don't take it seriously. Surprisingly, the issue of accidentally choosing the wrong class has also been preserved.

After all, placing the wrong item won't affect passing the level. A little slower speed is fine; people come to internet cafes to play games not to pursue efficiency, but to have fun.

Little did they know that this behavior would have a huge impact on the future of DNF, especially during the raid era. This impact lasted for three raid expansions before raid leaders changed their habit of casually dropping ground-based healers or transformation healers into raids.

While the internet cafe customers were enjoying their games, an ordinary-looking customer entered the second branch.

Hibiki Sakura, an ordinary middle school girl, has recently gained a little weight due to overeating. She wants to lose weight, but as she thinks about it, she finds herself in an internet cafe.

Chapter 562 Let's Work Out, Girl!

"Where is this? An internet cafe?"

Sakura Hibiki looked around the internet cafe, glancing left and right, and felt that this place wouldn't help her lose weight, much less make money.

That's right, she wants to lose weight while also earning some extra money to spend. She's been eating a bit too much lately and has spent all her allowance.

Just as she was thinking, she noticed a blonde loli speaking to her.

"Hello, this is 4D Space Internet Cafe. Sir/Madam, we can meet any of your needs. Would you like to stay and give it a try?"

Leticia was giving a presentation, explaining that she now had a wealth of experience, and with the help of the internet cafe's intelligent system, she and Leticia could make it easy for anyone to stay in the internet cafe.

Hibiki Sakura's eyes lit up when she heard that any need could be met: "Excuse me, can I lose weight here?"

"Losing weight? Of course!"

Leticia smiled and said, "Our restaurant can help you maintain a perfect figure with ease, while also letting you eat food you can't even imagine."

"real or fake?"

Just as she raised her question, Sun Wukong walked to the front desk and grabbed a bottle of cola.

"Big sister, it's true! You can become super, super strong here, and there's delicious food and drinks. Plus, the food that the big brothers and sisters cook is amazing."

Little Goku pursed his lips as he said the word "delicious." The glowing food he had eaten back then was unforgettable, and he really wanted to eat it again, but he didn't have any money.

No worries, the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament has already started accepting applications, and the competition will begin in a few days. Once we get a ranking, we'll have money to buy delicious food.

Yes, Sun Wukong belongs to the poor group in the internet cafe. The reason for his poverty is very simple: he doesn't understand how to be a middleman and finds it too troublesome, so he earns money by his own physical labor. He has enough for internet access and food and drink, but he's still a little short of money to buy perfectly prepared dishes.

Looking at the little Goku with a tail, Hibiki Sakura asked excitedly, "Really?"

"real!"

Sakura Hibiki gave a thumbs up: "Then give me a day's work!"

Sakura Hibiki glanced at the internet access prices. Although they were expensive, she could accept the price if it would allow her to maintain a perfect figure.

Leticia smiled when she heard the newcomer's request to go online.

"Lesser! Take the guests to Unit 22."

"Received~"

Reisen, carrying Sakura Hibiki, turned on the computer and said, "If you want to maintain your figure, I personally recommend you play the game DNF."

"This game allows you to freely use your skills in your world to burn off excess fat. If your stamina is low, you can purchase Senzu Beans from our shop; one Senzu Bean can provide your energy for seven days."

Sakura Hibiki exclaimed in surprise, "That's amazing?"

"Guests, please feel free to try it. Trust me, our shop will satisfy all your desires."

Thank you! Thank you~

While expressing her gratitude, Hibiki Sakura felt her stomach rumbling. After a moment of silence, she asked softly, "Excuse me, is there anything to eat here?"

"We can provide whatever you want to eat. However, we personally suggest avoiding foods with strong odors. If it affects the experience of other customers, you will be asked to leave."

"Don't worry, don't worry~ Just give me a bowl of ramen, with lots of meat!"

As she made her request, Reese placed a bowl of ramen filled with Wagyu beef chunks in front of her.

"Please enjoy your meal, sir. If you need anything, just raise your hand and tell me what you want!"

"How amazing..."

Hibiki Sakura swallowed excitedly as the ramen appeared almost instantly in front of her. She picked up the bowl and took a sip of the broth; the perfect soup base brought a blissful expression to her face.

"Delicious!"

In just a few breaths, Hibiki Sakura finished a bowl of noodles.

"Hello! Another bowl, please!"

"Another bowl, please!"

"Again..."

The ramen at the internet cafe was so delicious that Hibiki Sakura couldn't resist eating a little more. Not much, only about twenty bowls. Compared to usual, it was just enough to make her feel a little full.

"Waaaah, I really want to keep eating, but the food here is so expensive! And my stomach..."

Hibiki Sakura poked the extra fat on her stomach that she had developed from overeating and lack of exercise, and felt completely emo.

Meanwhile, Little Goku noticed Emo's Hibiki Sakura and, looking at the twenty large bowls beside her, excitedly asked, "Big sister, you can eat a lot! You're obviously very strong!"

"Strong? I don't know how to fight."

"It's okay!"

Little Goku excitedly said, "Come open Mugen, let's have a spar! Baki said that people who can eat a lot and don't look fat are very, very promising."

"Shall we give it a try?"

Since it was just a game, Hibiki Sakura didn't pay much attention. However, when she entered Mugen, she found that there were already a few other people in the game room that Goku had brought her into.

Baki: "Yo! You brought in a newcomer? Hmm...?"

When Baki saw Hibiki Sakura, he had a vague feeling of unease. Unlike Hardbone, he had a feeling that this woman was a fighting genius.

Garou also sensed Sakura Hibiki's difference. They were all martial artists and fighters, and their long-term battles had given them a very special ability, creating a sense of mutual respect.

If you get this feeling, it proves that the other person definitely has something extraordinary about fighting.
