Chapter 440: The Other Side of the Ocean

"Aren't you a native of Nolan?"

Qiao Xiu browsed through the entry information records filled in by the contestants himself, and his eyes fell on the column of names.

Dorothy Becksner.

Joshua remembered the name Dorothy, and there was a player named Dorothy in the "My World" server of the Four Princesses.

The name is not common in Nolan.

After Qiao Xiu took a look at the girl standing in front of him, he could basically conclude that she had just arrived in Nolan not long ago, and...hadn't found a place to put her luggage yet.

"I'm from the Iron Nation."

Dorothy answered Joshua truthfully, she didn't think there was anything to hide about this kind of thing.

In the country of steel, Joshua has never opened a branch of the Hearthstone Tavern in places other than Nolan.

And those outsiders' impression of Hearthstone Tavern is no different from that of ordinary taverns. Even if Qiao Xiu played the advertisement of 'Black Rock Mountain' on the TV station, Qiao Xiu didn't think that the girl wanted to attend on a whim after seeing the advertisement. competition.

After all, even Nolan's audience focused on 'Where did that black dragon come from after seeing that advertisement! '

"Miss Dorothy, the minimum requirement to sign up for the Nolan Open is to have a complete deck and rank within 2,000 in the tavern."

Joshua was able to confirm that the red-haired girl in men's clothing standing in front of him was the Dorothy who played "Minecraft" with the four princesses.

"A complete deck? I have twelve decks in total."

Dorothy waved her hand and opened the interface of her magic net, wanting to show Joshua her deck, but Joshua shook his head with a smile.

"The test version on the magic net cannot be included in the scope of 'cards you own'."

Joshua interrupted the girl's start of the game "Hearthstone" by making a sound first.

"Test... version?" Dorothy didn't quite understand the meaning of Joshua's words.

"These cards don't exist in reality, Miss Dorothy, you should be able to understand, right?" Joshua said.

Dorothy nodded, of course she understands that the magic net constructs a completely virtual world, whether it is the black dragon Nefarian in "Hearthstone" or the dwarf wearing a red hat in "Super Mario" They are all fictitious, products drawn by people.

Then somehow bring them to life in a fictional world.

"The cards on the Monet are only for you to experience." Joshua took out a palm-sized black primordial crystal, which is also the 'card box' that stores Hearthstone legends. "The cards inside are the real ones." Belongs to you, um... Since you are the first contestant from the Iron Country, this raw spar is considered a gift."

Dorothy took the original crystal that Joshua put on the table, activated the original crystal with magic power, and a transparent interface was displayed from the original crystal.

This is the My Collection interface in Hearthstone.

"Missing... a lot of cards."

Dorothy flipped through the cards in the collection, and the cards inside were seriously missing, only a part of the novice deck.

"You should collect the missing cards." Joshua said.

"Collection, it sounds a bit like a story about dungeon adventures." Dorothy is a shrewd businessman, and she quickly understood what Joshua meant by collection. "How much does a card cost?"

"Well, if you are just starting to build your own card collection, I suggest you start buying from card packs first."

Qiao Xiu pointed to a magical machine behind him, which was specially used to buy card packs.

Years of experience in business made Dorothy fall into vigilance at this moment.

But if she wants to win the next Nolan Open, it is impossible to rely on these basic cards to fight.

She walked slowly to the magic machine, and embedded the black crystal into the groove of the machine.

Now Dorothy can only pray that the so-called card packs will not be so expensive.

"A...gold coin?"

Dorothy stared at the price of a pack of cards and was stunned for a moment.

If she remembers correctly, the exchange rate between Nolan's gold coins and the country's currency Bislk is 3.2 to 1.

That is to say, the price of a card pack is about one-third of Bislk!

For the same price, you can have a full meal at a relatively ordinary restaurant in the country of steel!

If it were the same as before, Dorothy might think that the price is a little expensive, but now the funds she carries are only fifty-two bislks.

In exchange for Nolan's gold coins, there are only one hundred and sixty-six gold coins.

This money is enough for her to go to the staff shop to buy a high-quality magic wand. If she saves a little, she can spend about half a year in Nolan!

But here it can only be replaced with one hundred and sixty card packs. The key is that the cards in these card packs are still inscriptions that only exist in the original spar. They are not real things, but virtual things. !

Is it really worth it?

Dorothy was lost in thought.

In the end, she still put all the ten gold coins she had on her on the grounds that 'this is to save her family's business'.

Seeing ten gold coins turned into ten packs of cards, Dorothy felt her heart was bleeding. This feeling of bleeding was far more uncomfortable than when the chamber of commerce kept losing money.

Because it used the private money she had saved!

Ten brand-new classic card packs appeared in her collection inventory, and Dorothy opened her own card packs directly on the magic machine she bought.

"Ten packs with one lay on hands? The shipment rate is pretty good." Joshua said from the side.

"Why are they both common and rare qualities?"

Dorothy looked at the newly added cards in her collection with some confusion, all of them were of common and rare quality, and the only special one was the epic quality 'Lay on Hands'.

"Legendary cards are not so easy to get, you need enough luck." Joshua said.

At this moment Dorothy fully understood that she had fallen into the trap of a profiteer.

She forcibly stabilized the excitement in her heart, and looked at the magical machine in front of her.

"Then what are the chances of getting a legendary card?" Dorothy's business house also held this kind of lottery, and even the highest prize has at least a chance of getting one.

"One percent... probably."

Hearing Joshua's answer, Dorothy took a few steps back and almost fell to the ground.

The magical machine in front of her seemed to have turned into a money-swallowing monster, attacking her wallet with its fangs and claws.

One percent! Or roughly... that is to say, if you want to own a legendary card, you need to draw at least a hundred packs of the same card!

This is one hundred gold coins!

What's even more frightening is that a deck needs more than one legendary card!

At this moment, Dorothy understood why someone on the caster forum made a special post to celebrate after getting a legendary card!

"What about buying cards separately?"

Dorothy didn't dare to gamble with her wealth anymore, and it was very likely that she would be poor enough to live on the streets of Nolan.

She remembered that the cards that Joshua just mentioned could be purchased!

"This is a card that other Hearthstone players choose to sell after they open it. Of course, the pricing is also set by them. There is also a special consignment service here.

Under Joshua's guidance, Dorothy clicked on the card consignment function on the Magic Mechanism in front of her.

A large number of Hearthstone cards are displayed on it, and the prices are clearly marked. Judging from the names marked under each card, these cards come from Hearthstone players, not the operator of the tavern itself.

It was the first time for Dorothy to see this way of trading, and she searched for the card she wanted most among these cards.

That was the warrior's legendary card 'Grom Hellscream', which quickly showed more than a hundred results, and the price of each card made Dorothy a little dazzled.

Especially the golden Grom Hellscream, which cost as much as 1,500 gold coins!

This is too expensive, are all Hearthstone players so rich! This is no ordinary civilian game!

Are these legendary cards comparable to luxury goods!

Dorothy felt a little tight in her chest, this was the second time she had lost to 'money'.

Even if she spends all of her net worth now, she probably won't be able to make up a set of warrior decks that she plays on the magic net.

Is it only for this reason to give up the game?

Isn't it great to be a countess in Ossenburg! Come here to play some Hearthstone game!

Dorothy's aggrieved heart had reached its peak. She fumbled in her wallet and found the last gold coin in it.

It's a commemoration.

She sighed slightly, and put the gold coin into the mouth of the "money-eating" monster machine in front of her, planning to go back to her hometown to get married after drawing this card pack.

A classic card pack has reappeared in Dorothy's collection.

The card pack shattered into five points under Dorothy's click, and the five cards were spread out on a flat surface. She weakly clicked on four of the cards, all of which were the lowest-level ordinary quality cards.

The price on the consignment house was less than a silver coin.

However, just as she clicked on the last card, an inspiring voice rang in her ears.

'Wow! Golden legend! '

Dorothy froze there. She quietly looked at the card floating in front of her eyes. The name of this card clearly read 'Ragnaros, Lord of Fire'!

The golden fire demon king!

Dorothy's experience in playing Hearthstone for a month told her that Ragnaros, the Lord of Fire, is definitely the strongest orange card in Hearthstone, and it can be carried by almost all late-stage decks!

The terrifying versatility of this deck also determines its high price.

Dorothy immediately called up the consignment page and found the price of the Fire Demon King card.

'Ragnaros, Lord of Fire, golden legendary quality, consignor: Ax of Frost, price 4821 gold coins. '

Four thousand gold coins... With one gold coin, she won a golden legend worth four thousand gold coins!

Dorothy felt that she was a little unstable. The ups and downs of life made her head dizzy. It was Joshua next to him who stretched out his hand to support Dorothy, whose legs were a little weak.

"Your luck is better than I imagined." If Joshua remembered correctly, the girl only opened eleven packs.

"I...maybe I can open a few more packs. Can you exchange Bislk for gold coins?"

At this moment, Dorothy fully understands why the card pack is so expensive, and there are still people who will spend a lot of money to buy it!

This is the game! The girl has tasted the aroma of luck, and she doesn't intend to stop there.

"I don't provide currency exchange services here, but I think there are many customers who are willing to help you."

Joshua looked behind Dorothy. When the Golden Fire Demon King was born, a group of dwarves behind had put down the cards in their hands, and looked at the red-haired girl in disbelief.

In the eyes of these dwarves, the birth of a golden legendary card is no less than finding a relic that can be used underground!
