Chapter 527 Extra: Adventuring Packages
However, the Beginner Adventuring Package that consisted of a Grade 2 weapon and armour coupon along with some potions and such was predicted to be selling like hotcakes. (And in hindsight, it did exceptionally well with the new crowd from Day One.) Not just chi potions were sold within that package but medicines similar to the ones he sold in the Goblin World too.
By making use of the experience he had gained from designing the Dungeon Cave, Jin had asked the System to make ailments in the current dungeon design as a noticeable side effect. Effects like fire would make them feel like it was searing their skin away and freezing could potentially slow their entire body to a halt.
Jin had also permitted the System to appoint random elemental inscription on various monsters and make those who already utilised them stronger.
For example, Werejackals\' Vice Leader Grey loved to use fireballs, and the System amplified the effect through the dimensional instance, causing the cultivators to receive a burning effect whenever they were hit by the fireball.
While it\'s true that those who had high control of chi or had water magic can remove the fire, those of lower grades would have to purchase those anti burning potions or creams to prevent or reduce the consequences of burning. The same was true for poisons as well as other effects like causing the chi to generate slower or general paralysation.
Hence, this allowed him to sell an Adventuring Pancreas Pack that featured these kinds of potion and included chi regeneration potions as part of the sales too.
The dungeons were not the only thing that received price cuts, as Jin had ensured that it also affected the Service Instances. All the Service Instances were priced at 15 Yuan except for the Panda Muscles Service Instance which was priced at 5 Yuan per visit though he also offered monthly and annual membership deal for Panda Muscles Service Instance as to entice more people to use his services.
Since the fishing instance was combined with the Restaurant Instance, it was not affected by the 15 Yuan entry fee, but it had their prices slashed to a more affordable price range in the hope that more people would be able to patronise Chef Roro\'s superb sushi skills.
Meanwhile, the food was subjective to Lynn\'s way of pricing, which Jin did not object a single bit. He also gave Lynn full authority over the Pandafull delivery service when it came to food, and it allowed her to provide daily discounts depending on the System\'s predictive analysis.
Despite Jin making all these price adjustments, he suddenly understood the System\'s point of view of making it expensive. When it meant long term growth, the System was anticipating a new sort of crowd as soon as the portals were up and operational.
Foreigners.
If Jin converted the Yuan to other currencies, it would definitely be inferior to say the Euro or US dollar. Hence, Jin made it clear to the System that the prices stay as per their foreign currency. What he meant was that an American paying the dungeon would not be paying 25 Yuan, but be paying 25 USD instead.
Jin found that this was the fairest in accordance with each cultivator or magician\'s personal expenses and at that point wondered if he should open separate shop instances to accommodate to a different crowd so as to avoid bias.
That was when he realised how bloody useful Another Jins could possibly be as he could exist at various shop instances as they teleported into the shop instances. But of course, Jin would need the System to \'install\' their language into his Another Jins to be able to have effective communication with foreigners.
"Maybe I instead of calling them Another Jin 1 or Jin 2, I can start referring to them as America Jin, European Jin, African Jin, oh Farming Jin and Dungeon Jin. Hahahahah!" Jin joked to the System as he prepared and input the various price deals into the System for consideration.
"It is technically possible, but System feels the need to remind User that having too many Another Jins will ultimately strain your body and chi. Thus, System has an obligation to not allow Jin to be out of the store unless all the Another Jins recombine with you should User attempt such a feat." The System spoke its concerns out, and Jin understood.
"Anyway, no need to get ahead of ourselves. Let\'s concentrate on China first before we expand outwards. Maybe before our expansion, we could get some foreigners in too." Jin shrugged his shoulders as he stretched his hands and continued to fiddle with his personal projects despite having only a few more hours before the opening ceremony.
Considering that he was in the Dungeon Maker, time moved at a different pace that he did not feel anxious about the opening ceremony at all.
With time currently at his side, Jin had been reading reports on the Demon Rats provided by the System and learnt that they were more widespread than they had initially thought. Although he had yet to make time to greet the new monsters that entered the System, he knew their names and what they had been doing.
For example, Weslie the Scholar of the West was reverse engineering a Steam Tech control that might possibly turn into the game changer and allow them to create the legendary tool for Operation Pied Piper, which was taken directly from the Pied Piper of Hamelin or that was what Jin thought when he read about the news.
It would fit nicely into Jin\'s scenario of creating the multi instance Military and Police exercise operations Hou Fei had talked about. He had been missing the crucial element of attracting the rats, and if he had some way to amplify that control and push all the rats into the multi instance, it would be advantageous for him.
In the meantime, Gold had sent out his Werejackal scouts that reported tens of Demon Rat battalions and human slaves coming from their capital to the captured towns so the rats could \'liberate\' them from their control again.
The Dark Templars and Lord Wolte were then in charge of surprise attacks, causing the battalions to be delayed in their march but it was more than just a dent in their schedule. Still, every single hour counts, and that was what matters.
Because the Dark Templars were playing the defensive role, the Three Goblins were acting even bolder in attacking the towns ever since the incident at Town of Wecha. The news spread fast, and the Demon Rats began shoring their defences up in those controlled towns.
But this time, the Goblin Trio brought Meomi with them as the Southern Stars Leader had criticised Meomi being an unwanted risk after what had happened.
Thus, Meomi commanded the Mousefolks while Flame Ripper brought the Western Skies adventurers along with them. With the Mousefolks fully contracted to the System, Meomi was not afraid of utilising them in freeing more towns.
As for the Western Skies Adventurers, they were tasked to disrupt any supply caravans towards those rat infested towns, and in exchange, they were allowed to keep the gold they earned.
The adventurers also tasked to spread the news, rumours and gossips that a resistance group was doing its best in liberating the towns from the rats. As the Sea Port Towns were still under the protection of whatever Northern Guards were left in the region, Gold hoped they could be spurred into action with all the positive news.
With all these happening, Jin felt that another Raid instance was needed to assist his monsters and he needed to do something a little more drastic to increase the manpower since they had no help except the pockets rebel groups in the region.
That was how the idea of \'Squads\' came to be.
