Seeing this notice, the players on the forum went into a buzz .
Xueli_The_Strongest: “Haha! I, Xueli, am finally going to be a pirate king!”
Crayon_Shinchan: “The naval headquarters have been established, the pirate king from above please surrender yourself!”
Watermelon_Taro: “Isn’t the Son of the Sea fruit the Devil’s fruit? Damn, I was trembling with excitement and could already imagine a magnificent sea war happening, but when I saw that the cheapest Specter Ship requires 200 soul coins, I could only shrink into the corner and sob uncontrollably . The word ‘fuck’ isn’t enough to explain my emotions!”
Invincible_Loneliness: “The Calamity Ship looks good (funny face) . Also, I’m accepting soul coins indefinitely . Don’t assume that I don’t have enough money, I’m just afraid that you don’t have enough soul coins . Players with soul coins please join this group (318815704)”
Ye_Xueer_is_the_cutest: “So sad, I’m really short on soul coins . Why hasn’t this bastard game opened up the top-up channel?! And who is the bastard boss of this game, did he actually give the research and development team salary?! (Angry)”
Little_Tiger: “Looking for a sugar mommy, one that buys me soul coins!”
Chief_Of_Demolition_Officers: “There are so many treasures in the Underworld Sea . I have a hunch that I will soon acquire a hidden character class inheritance . ”
Cultivating_Longetivity (Qi Ming): “Wow, this world is getting more and more wonderful . Let’s not talk about it, I’m going to ask my grandson for money to get FortifiedByUsingCash!”
Ye_Chen_The_Most_Handsome replied to Cultivating_Longetivity: “Grandson? How old are you?”
Cultivating_Longetivity replied to Ye_Chen_The_Most_Handsome: “Hehe, I’m over 120 years old . ”
Ye_Chen_The_Most_Handsome replied to Cultivating_Longetivity: “Haha (Middle Finger)!”
Director_Of_Demolition_Officers: “Interesting, seems like we have another goal . No matter ocean or land, we Demolition Officers will be the first!”
harder_said_than_done: “Naval Battle? In reality, I’m a chief mate, looks like it’s time to fight! (Surprise . jpg)”
Prandtl: “As an explorer, I’m ready to sail! Other than that, I want to collect soul coins to build my own ship and start my own great adventure on the sea ~Happy~”
After the release of the new expansion pack Ferocious Waves, the response from the players was very strong in addition to being curious about the Underworld Sea region . Suffice it to say, the price of soul coins fluctuated again soon after the release of the expansion pack .
All of the major guilds wanted to build a guild-level Specter Warship one step ahead of the others . Thus, under mass acquisition and demand, the price of soul coins began to rise to the point where it was practically priceless .
This was also because the players were full of curiosity and had a deep desire to explore the sea . They also wanted to build their own Specter Ships and were therefore unwilling to sell their soul coins .
This then further led to many complaints on the forum as a few hundreds of thousands of players pinned a thread of comments titled “Rubbish game, top-up channel still not open, we strongly protest!” at the top of the main page of the forum . Their purpose was very much obvious, which was to force Lu Wu to quickly open up a top-up channel .
However, Lu Wu merely glanced at it as he continued to peel an apple calmly . Then, he put it near Bei Li’s mouth and watched her eat it bite by bite .
Top-up? What top-up? Such a thing does not exist!
