Troublesome.

He probably had to go to the other side to pick up the mission.

Fang Heng muttered in his heart as he roughly flipped through the mission list.

Eh?

This was good!

Using survival points to directly exchange for contribution points!

Due to the game’s restrictions, the monthly exchange limit was limited.

The exchange limit was 100:1. Currently, the maximum amount that could be exchanged was 1,000 contribution points per month.

Fang Heng currently did not lack survival points.

[Hint: You have used 100,000 survival points to exchange for 1,000 contribution points from Raptor Company.]

With contribution points, he could think of a way to exchange for some driving tools to leave this place. He could find a wild monster area and find an opportunity to farm monsters.

Fang Heng quickly formulated a targeted plan.

“Excuse me, is there a teleportation passage here?”

“Teleportation passage will be unlocked when your membership level reaches Level 5.”

It was the membership level again.

Fang Heng frowned. “How long will it take to reach Level 5?”

The young lady revealed a formulaic smile. “It’s very easy to reach the low-tier membership level. A total of 7,500 contribution points will do.”

“Fang Heng.”

After asking for some information, Mo Jiawei returned to Fang Heng’s side and pointed to Fang Heng. “I’ve asked already. Our luck isn’t good. This place is one of the top ten famous mining areas in the game.”

“Mining area?”

“Yes. There are a significant number of mining areas in a large area nearby. This place is occupied by a company called Weixing Technology. There are many small companies and small guilds. There are also many teams of purely unspecialized players who are here to mine for money.”

Mo Jiawei continued to explain in a low voice, “Many large companies purchase ores outside. Some buy them according to contribution points, while others buy them according to real-world cash. This place supports a lot of people, including the peddlers.”

“I heard that there are mutated beasts in the periphery deeper into the mining sites. The player will be troubled by the mutated beasts while mining, but there are no large boss-type creatures. Therefore, this is not a good place for us to obtain the high energy evolution crystal.”

Fang Heng nodded to show that he understood.

This was not a good place. It was better to leave early.

Mo Jiawei continued to ask, “Fang Heng, we are preparing to collect some contribution points to leave this place, right?”

“Yes…”

Fang Heng was thinking with his head lowered when he suddenly heard a familiar exclamation not far away.

“What the hell! You haven’t heard of the Ark Company?!”

Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei could not help but look at each other.

Sandy?

Did he start to stir up trouble again?

“Let’s go and take a look.”

On the right side of the trading hall, a group of people gathered to join in the fun.

In the crowd, Sandy was arguing with another player, looking indignant.

“I told you! We’re from the Ark Technology Company! We have properties all over the world, why don’t you cooperate with us? Discrimination? Looking down on us?”

Seeing Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei squeeze into the crowd, Sandy became even more aggressive.

“Boss Fang, tell me, aren’t they being unreasonable?”

Fang Heng still didn’t understand what was going on.

The player who was arguing with Sandy noticed Fang Heng and felt even more annoyed when he saw that he was still wearing a mask. He waved his hand and said, “Go, go, go. Don’t make trouble here. I want to do business with the gaming company. I’ve never heard of the Ark Technology Company. It’s best if you leave now…”

As a few of them were talking, a few more players walked over. They were all wearing the same black uniform.

The nearby players all avoided them when they saw them.

The young man in the lead, Zhao Xiu, looked at Fang Heng and the others.

“Causing trouble?”

Zhao Xiu was a little surprised at first when he heard that someone was causing trouble here.

“Listen well. This is Weixing Technology’s territory. You can only trade here after you have accepted Weixing Technology’s registered license. Also, every time the transaction is completed, Weixing Technology will charge 20% as a form of protection fee. Yes, this is to ensure everyone’s safety.”

What kind of overbearing clause was this?!

Sandy had never been angered like this before. He glared at Zhao Xiu and said fiercely, “Why should I give you money? We don’t need your company’s protection!”

“Of course, business cooperation is all about mutual consent.”

Zhao Xiu spread his hands and said indifferently, “You can try. If you don’t accept our company’s registered license, you can try and see who dares to trade with you here.”

As he spoke, Zhao Xiu looked around.

All the players avoided Zhao Xiu’s gaze.

For many years, paying protection fees to Weixing Technology had become a tradition.

“Alright, disperse. Don’t cause trouble. If there’s a next time, I’ll ask you to leave this place.”

Zhao Xiu licked his lips and looked at Fang Heng and the others with a threatening gaze.

“Let’s go.”

Sandy gritted his teeth as he watched Zhao Xiu and the others leave.

Fang Heng could not figure out the situation, so he asked, “Sandy, what’s going on?”

“Fang Heng, I saw it just now. That kind of stone ore is very good. It’s a type of ore necessary to build a temple. I’ve been searching in the apocalyptic world for a long time, but I still couldn’t find it. I just negotiated a deal with that person…”

Sandy gestured to Fang Heng and explained.

“These people are really shameless.”

“Don’t get too agitated.” Mo Jiawei was used to this kind of thing. Instead, he nodded and said, “It’s quite normal. This place is controlled by Weixing Technology behind the scenes. Weixing Technology has a huge plate and since one person can’t ‘eat up’ all the ore mining, they chose to cooperate with the players. The 20% protection fee is just a pretext.”

Fang Heng had a rough idea after listening to Sandy’s explanation.

So it was Sandy who was the arrogant one in other people’s territory.

It couldn’t be regarded as a provocation.

“F*ck, this matter won’t be settled just like that!”

Sandy cursed and pointed at Zhao Xiu and the others who had left. “Fang Heng, you have to help me.”

“Okay.”

Fang Heng agreed and looked at Mo Jiawei. “It seems that it’s unrealistic for us to cooperate with Weixing Technology. Is there any other way to get a large number of contribution points by bypassing Weixing Technology?”

“North River Heavy Industry has already withdrawn their investment from District 11 a few years ago. I can buy some contribution points offline, but getting them will take some time.”

Mo Jiawei touched his chin and pointed at the sparsely populated area on the right which was entrusted to Raptor Company.

“Otherwise, we can only trade with NPCs. Even the people of the Federation have no control over trading with NPCs.”

“Eh?”

Fang Heng was confused and asked, “Isn’t it good to trade with NPCs?”

“Yeah, I just asked around. The mid-game is not as good as the early stage of the game. The contribution points that can be exchanged by directly handing over resources to Raptor Company are relatively small. It’s far inferior as compared to trading with players.”

Fang Heng nodded to show that he understood.

“Let’s go to Raptor Company to see the situation.”

In short, it was a little late today. Fang Heng thought that he should go and pick up some missions first and arrange for the zombie clones to hack for a night.
