Chapter 2781 Times Have Changed (Bonus Chapter!)

Chapter 55 "50,000 Contribution Points?"

"Tenth Place?"

Upon hearing the words of the Green God staff member, Zhuo Linqiu was completely stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.

At this moment, not to mention Zhuo Linqiu, even the indifferent Han Yifeng beside him felt a little dazed.

Originally, in their eyes, Shi Feng was merely a pawn, but now he not only stood at the same level as them, but had even become a chess player, vying with them…

"No wonder he didn't take us seriously. He contributed 50,000 points in one go, directly ranking tenth." Zhuo Linqiu looked at Shi Feng, somewhat enlightened, then a hint of mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth, "It's a pity he doesn't know that the current contribution point ranking is just a warm-up for the real competition."

The Contribution Competition had been going on in the Upper Zone for many years. For those who were determined to compete, they generally wouldn't reveal their strength in the first two months.

Because contribution points were the biggest trump card for all participants, and the deeper these trump cards were hidden, the better, so they could erupt at the last moment and play a crucial role.

Moreover, secretly accumulating contribution points had another benefit, which was that at the last moment, one could determine whether to continue competing in this Contribution Competition. After all, contribution points accumulated in secret, apart from tasks that had to be submitted on time, could be used later and didn't necessarily have to be used now.

Over the many years that the Contribution Competition had been held, there had been no shortage of people who had been accumulating contribution points, constantly accumulating for several years, and then erupting in one fell swoop, directly taking the top three and moving into the Middle Zone.

With the Contribution Competition having only started for a month, the current contribution points were just testing the waters, and most of these contribution points came from the special bounty missions issued by various Green God companies, which could only be completed within a specified time and were not long-term tasks that could be submitted at any time.

Exposing one's contribution points too early was simply the most foolish choice.

"Although I don't know why he did this, it's a good opportunity." Han Yifeng shook his head and returned to his usual indifference, "Lao Zhuo, you go talk to him later. I can buy the contribution points hidden in his hand for double the price."

"Double the price?" Zhuo Linqiu couldn't help but look at Han Yifeng, feeling that this offer was a bit too high. "Young Master, according to past practice, being able to buy at 1.5 times the price is already a high price. After all, these people can't possibly get into the top three, and they're useless in their hands. Now, buying his hidden contribution points at double the price, others will definitely raise the price if they know about it."

In the Contribution Competition, it wasn't uncommon for players to join forces with others in the end. After all, before these contribution points were exchanged with the Green God Corporation, except for the contribution points given by the tasks, they could all be traded secretly.

Many times, at the last moment of the Contribution Competition, especially the players who were not far from the top three, would desperately buy contribution points, so there would be a price negotiation. This time, they wanted to compete for the top three, so it was inevitable.

As for the price negotiation, it was to buy the contribution points that had not yet been submitted at a price higher than that of the Green God Corporation. For example, the points given by the Green God Corporation could be directly transferred. As for the contribution points, although they couldn't be transferred, the real use of contribution points was in the Middle Zone, and the Basic Layer simply didn't need them.

Moreover, even in the Middle Zone, due to the restrictions of authority, the items that required contribution points to redeem were limited, which meant that the contribution points that could be used were also limited, and more was useless.

During price negotiations, people generally exchanged for various limited-purchase items of equal value. After all, whether it was exchanging points or exchanging contribution points, the purpose was only to exchange for those limited-purchase items. Wouldn't it be better to directly get those limited-purchase items in large quantities?

"Go ahead. This time, the Green God Corporation has rewards for the top twenty, so many people want to compete for the top twenty, and the price of contribution points will naturally be more expensive than other times." Han Yifeng shook his head, because he had already secretly received news that the Green God Corporation planned to further squeeze their financial groups, intensify competition, and offer the special case that the top twenty could exchange for limited-purchase items in the Middle Zone.

Once this news came out, it was certain that the price of contribution points would rise.

But it wouldn't be too exaggerated, after all, the contribution points needed to exchange for items were only so many, and it wasn't an open exchange. As long as the contribution points needed to exchange for items were met, other contribution points were simply superfluous.

"I understand." Zhuo Linqiu nodded and walked directly towards Shi Feng.

On the other side, Shi Feng was overjoyed.

One second ago, he was still a poor man in the Upper Zone, but now he had five million points, enough to buy five ordinary houses in the Basic Layer of the Upper Zone.

Of course, these points were far from enough to buy a large villa in the Basic Layer, but they were definitely enough for his daily expenses, at least enough to maintain the daily lives of Bai Qingsxue and Shui Se Qiangwei and the others.

"But it will be difficult to exchange for so many next time. It seems that I must find a way to obtain a large number of Seven Luminaries Crystals for a long time." Shi Feng sighed.

Five thousand units of Seven Luminaries Crystals was not a small amount, but it only exchanged for five million points and 50,000 contribution points. Not only was there a big gap from entering the top three, but even in the Middle Zone, these contributions and points were probably not enough.

After all, if he wanted to live in the Upper Zone for a long time, he would have to exchange for a lot of resources. Even if he wanted to obtain a reserved spot in the Upper Zone, and the Water of Life worth 30 million points and one million contribution points, five million points and 50,000 contribution points were simply not worth mentioning.

But this was not particularly difficult for him, after all, he was now in the Ancient God Domain, and the God Domain of that era was extremely rich in resources, which was not comparable to the current God Domain Continent.

After receiving five million points and 50,000 contribution points on the optical brain, Shi Feng was also ready to go directly to the entrance of the Upper Zone to pick up Bai Qingsxue and Shui Se Qiangwei. After all, it was very easy to have problems when entering the Upper Zone for the first time if there was no one to lead the way.

Because there were too many taboos in the Upper Zone, if he accidentally violated them, being kicked out of the Upper Zone would be a small matter. Being permanently removed from the identity would be a great injustice.

However, before Shi Feng had time to leave the exchange window, Zhuo Linqiu was already standing beside him.

"Guild Leader Shi Feng, we meet again." Although Zhuo Linqiu was unhappy with Shi Feng, as Han Yifeng's chief steward, he was still very cultivated and greeted him.

"Master Zhuo, I wonder what's the matter?" Shi Feng looked at Zhuo Linqiu and asked calmly.

Although he was not surprised that Zhuo Linqiu came to him directly, he did not expect Han Yifeng to act so quickly.

Ke Rui had already told him about the various things in the Contribution Competition, so he knew very well that those who wanted to compete for the rankings would secretly buy contribution points. He had just exchanged 50,000 contribution points in one breath, which was not a small amount. It was almost impossible for those who wanted to compete for the top three not to react.

"There is indeed something, and it is a great thing for Guild Leader Shi Feng." Zhuo Linqiu smiled faintly, "I believe Guild Leader Shi Feng should also know about the various things in the Contribution Competition, so I will not beat around the bush. Our Young Master Han wants to buy the contribution points that you have not yet exchanged, and our Young Master Han is willing to offer double the price. I wonder what Guild Leader Shi Feng thinks?"

ps: Lao Mao has already paid off all the owed updates for the rewards.
