Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

Chapter 1302 Seeking the Trump Card

The screen lit up, revealing a map with lifelike embossed mountains, rivers, and lakes.

The camera locked onto the west side of the Eastern Continent of Apocalypse, Fort Boldan, the capital of the Byron Republic!

Zhou Ning couldn't help but be slightly startled. On this map, he could see that the city was surrounded by a black, illusory river of time. This river of time flowed through the entire Bordan Castle, connecting the beginning and the end, which meant that it had entered a cycle of time.

In a desert filled with dust and yellow sand, a group of people in black robes trudged towards Fort Boldan. Behind them, two groups of people trailed in the distance: one dressed as alchemists, the other scholars. Beyond them, in the desert beyond, a thousand miles of barren land lay, where half-giant tribes and even armies were decimated by the dense swarm of undead.

The picture then zoomed out again, and above Fort Bordan, silhouettes of gods appeared one after another from left to right. They were the Sun Goddess, the Goddess of Life Elves, the God of Craftsmen and Alchemy, the Earth Goddess, and finally the God of War.

Then the sky suddenly darkened, the river of time began to boil, and a line of words burning with blazing flames jumped out on the screen:

【Welcome to Apocalypse 4.0 - Beyond Doomsday! 】

The ninth episode of Apocalypse Preview ends.

"Apocalypse Forecast" is indeed very good.

After watching the show, Zhou Ning felt a little unsatisfied. While dealing with the players' enthusiasm, he fell into deep thought.

Although this issue of Apocalypse Forecast is still very interesting, I have to say that it still contains a lot of useful information.

At least Zhou Ning understood his own strength and position. He was officially ranked seventh. This was when his level remained at that of an ordinary god, and he would soon become a true god.

Furthermore, everything undoubtedly pointed to Fort Bourdin, which made his trip to Fort Bourdin imperative.

But this must be done after one has achieved true godhood.

Also, there is a scene in the easter egg plot where the Curse Cultists massacred tribes and armies in the desert. As far as I can remember, apart from the Northern Pirate War that Zhou Ning experienced, the Curse Cult rarely carried out such large-scale operations.

Zhou Ning had a guess that their actions were most likely to help the God of Death return from nothingness faster.

As mentioned before, the concept of "returning from the void" is the path for gods to return after their fall. Upon becoming a god, their fate becomes bound to the very essence of this world. As long as the world endures, so does the god. However, if appropriate backup plans are not laid, this return will take an incredibly long time.

That was the path for the gods to return after their fall. Upon becoming a god, their fate became bound to the very essence of this world. As long as the world endured, so did the gods. If a suitable backup plan wasn't laid, the time it took to return would be incredibly long.

Creating more deaths is the fastest way for the god of death to return from nothingness.

"I feel like the current situation is very similar to the ancient wars between gods. All the righteous gods are influencing the material world in their own ways." Zhou Ning thought silently.

But compared to other righteous gods, his greatest advantage was not the simulator, but rather that he was the only newly promoted god in the new era. He could walk freely in the human world without the help of the kingdom of gods, the astral realm, or even divine descent, and could fight against those powerful righteous gods.

A smile appeared on Zhou Ning's face. He was now extremely grateful that he had become strong enough and had enough foundation to gain the upper hand in the increasingly fierce confrontation.

However, after several rounds of consumption, his cards were almost used up, and he had to find time to replenish them.

The sale lasted until 4:30 in the afternoon. The players reluctantly watched Wayne Stewell's figure slowly disappear from the spot. There were too many people rushing to buy this time, and the supply was too high. And why did Boss Wayne get off work earlier and earlier? Wasn't he very short of money?

Why is Boss Wayne so skilled in playing the Inch Stop Challenge?

……

After returning to his room, Zhou Ning unconsciously smiled.

He once again underestimated the players' determination to improve in the new version. Less than eight hours later, the Wayne Consortium felt like it was about to be revived. Zhou Ning counted his gains—a total of 387 million Vectra.

This was even when Zhou Ning implemented hunger marketing, which almost wiped out the damage caused by Guarani to himself.

Selling various spellbooks and skillbooks accounts for about 40% of my income. Although I'll only be selling them for a few days, I can foresee that this income stream will be sustainable. I sell not only spells but also ultimate skills, which are needed by almost every player. And it's pure profit with no investment.

The income from selling various props and equipment accounted for 50%, about . This was not beyond Zhou Ning's expectations. Now Zhou Ning rarely sold low-end equipment. This business was transferred to Bruce Wayne. After all, only a few people could afford to buy top-quality equipment.

The only thing that fell short of expectations was the dungeon collection stone that Zhou Ning had placed the most hope on, which only accounted for less than 30%. In the past, this figure accounted for at least half of the total revenue. It is speculated that the difficulty of this group dungeon is a bit too scary, and many players choose to wait and see for the time being.

Zhou Ning was not worried about the sales of the summoning stones. After all, the group dungeon was an important part of the game and was a necessity for every player. In the past, there was a fierce competition for the first kill in each group dungeon. The demand for summoning stones would gradually increase as players became stronger.

Sure enough, in the next few days, a long queue formed in front of the entrance of the Starry Sky Station.

While the income from magic books and skill books remained the same and were cleared out every day, the sales of Zhou Ning's products continued to rise, especially the group summoning stones, whose sales doubled, and we have Jinse to thank for that.

After proving that the infinite monster farming method was feasible, Jinse began to immerse herself in the group dungeon without sleep, and would go out to reset after finishing the group dungeon. She had not logged off for three consecutive days. Apart from burning money and wasting teammates, there was nothing wrong with it. After all, her famous saying is: Why do people sleep?

As the level was rising rapidly, she had the computer urgently repaired on the same day, reducing the monster experience by 30%, but it was still possible to brush it. Inevitably, this group dungeon became popular because of her.

As his wallet grew fatter, Zhou Ning also booked a trip to the south of the New Bryston Theocracy. Tomorrow morning, Zhou Ning would take a ship to Heber Harbor, a port city on the coast of the Byron Republic, and then take a steam train from there to the New Bryston Kingdom.

This will be a journey that will last at least a week, and Zhou Ning looks forward to completing his spiritual cultivation in the process.

That night, Zhou Ning opened the time travel simulator again, preparing for the final simulation before departure.

If possible, he wanted to seek additional authority similar to that of Thunder in the simulator, or some powerful trump cards.

I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart today. My heartbeat was very fast for more than 10 hours. I barely updated one chapter today. There will be no next update. I plan to go to the hospital tomorrow. I may not be able to update, but I'll just say this first.
