These players looked fairly rich.
The few of them combined together totaled up to 600 gold coins.
Actually, the bald boss had 180 gold coins on him, but he only took out 120 gold coins and secretly left 60 gold coins behind.
However, his underlings did not understand their boss and obediently handed over all their gold coins.
As the boss, he naturally knew how much money his underlings had.
As he watched them hand over all their gold coins one by one, the bald boss felt his heart ache a little.
After all, this was money!
After handing over the gold coins, the bald boss gritted his teeth and squeezed out a smile that looked even uglier than crying. He carefully asked,
“Then... can we go now?”
Mike’s expression was a little ugly, but he still nodded.
The bald boss and the others quickly ran away.
After they left, Mike sighed and said to The World’s Greatest Sword Hero, who stood at the side with a happy expression,
“Go look for more people. Find a few who looks more powerful.”
The World’s Greatest Sword Hero was immersed in joy as he felt that he had successfully completed the mission his master had given him.
When he heard Mike’s words, he immediately went to look for another target.
According to his understanding, the reason his master asked him to look for an expert was definitely that experts tended to have more money on them.
Mike’s thoughts were very simple.
An expert would definitely not easily give in. He might even resist on the spot. In that case, Mike could snatch his equipment.
If the only thing he could snatch was their gold coins, then how long would it take for him to gather 200,000 gold coins?
Mike sighed. He was already tempted to go and clear dungeons.
At the very least, clearing a dungeon would drop a few pieces of equipment. Other than the worthless white equipment, the green equipment could also be sold for some money.
At least it would be faster than robbing money.
If blue equipment was dropped, then the money would come even faster.
In fact, Mike had thought about whether he should forge some gold equipment to sell.
However, the current players would generally not have any gold coins on them. No one could afford to buy gold equipment.
Even Super Rich paid with federation coins.
If he were to use federation coins to purchase gold coins, Mike had the capability to do it now. However, he did not want to.
Since he had decided to buy a good house for himself, Mike had set a rule for himself.
That was to never use federation coins to buy gold coins.
He wanted to save money and improve his life.
Thus, using federation coins to buy gold coins was not an option.
However what if he used gold equipment to exchange for gold coins?
It would not work either.
On one hand, no one could really spend that many gold coins to buy gold equipment.
On the other hand, if too much gold equipment appeared on the market, the value of the equipment would depreciate.
Not only would gold equipment depreciate, even green and blue equipment would also become worthless.
This was definitely a loss for Mike.
After thinking about it, Mike decided.
In the future, he would only sell the equipment he forged to Super Rich, and the money he earned would be used for his own real-life consumption.
He would earn the gold coins in the game via other methods.
Just as he was deep in thought, a girl with a magic wand came to Mike.
“Excuse me, is a robbery happening here?”
Mike was slightly stunned.
‘What does she mean?’
Before he could say anything, the girl took out 20 gold coins and handed them to Mike with a red face, and then she ran away nervously.
Mike looked at the 20 gold coins in his hand and fell into deep thought.
‘What the hell is going on?
‘How did the female magician know that I’m robbing people here?
‘Moreover, isn’t she supposed to run away if she knew that I’m robbing here?
‘Why did she automatically hand me the gold coins?
‘This is too strange!’
Before he could figure out what was going on, another person came.
This time, it was a female sharpshooter.
She also had a shy expression on her face. She stood before Mike with a little shyness and remained silent.
Looking at the girl staring at him, Mike had a strong feeling in his heart.
The other party seemed to be waiting for him to rob her of her money.
The corner of Mike’s eyes twitched twice, and he asked tentatively,
“Uhm, robbery?”
After hearing this, the girl heaved a sigh of relief. She took out 50 gold coins and stuffed them into Mike’s hands while patting her own chest and talking to herself.
“I thought I made a mistake.”
“What?” Mike was slightly stunned.
“No, nothing.” The girl realized that she had let the cat out of the bag and quickly ran away with a reddened face.
Looking at the reaction of the female sharpshooter, Mike felt that something was wrong.
‘What on earth is going on with these people?
‘Why will someone take the initiative to send money over???
‘This world has become so strange!’
Just as he was thinking about this, another person came from afar.
This time, as if to avoid another strange situation, Mike took the initiative to shout from afar,
“Robbery!”
He hoped to see the other party escape or resist.
However, reality disappointed him.
When the swordsman across from him heard Mike’s words, an excited expression appeared on his face. He even quickened his pace and ran over.
“You want to rob me, right? That’s great. Here are 100 gold coins. I’ll give it all to you.”
After giving the gold coins, the swordsman left happily.
This time, Mike was completely dumbfounded.
There must be something wrong.
Something must have happened!
Otherwise, such a strange phenomenon would never occur.
Mike looked around with a puzzled look and found that another female fighter was clearly walking towards him.
He narrowed his eyes and did not say anything, quietly waiting for her to come closer.
When the female fighter walked over, Mike narrowed his eyes and asked,
“You’re here to be robbed by me too?”
The female fighter was slightly stunned, then she nodded and asked nervously,
“May I ask if you want to trade directly with me, or do you want to use other methods?”
When Mike heard this, the corners of his eyes twitched twice.
This woman was actually so proactive, so cooperative, and so orderly???
He finally could not hold it in anymore and asked,
“You don’t have to give me the money. I just want to know, how did you know that I was robbing here?”
The girl tilted her head and thought for a moment before she answered,
“I saw it on the forum. Someone said that God Slayer was robbing here and was probably short on money. Hence, I came over.”
“Don’t you know about this? This post is quite popular on the forum. It’s already a trending post now.”
Mike was completely dumbfounded.
‘What’s going on?
‘Who posted this?’
While Mike was in a daze, the female fighter took the initiative to give 80 gold coins to Mike and then left with a red face.
Mike looked at the increasing amount of gold coins in his hands. After a moment of silence, he opened the forum.
The most eye-catching post at the top was...
“Shocking, the best player in the new region, God Slayer, is robbing outside the city!”
