Chapter 440: The Other Side of the Ocean

"You're not a native of Nolan?"

Qiao Xiu browsed the entry information record filled in by the contestant himself, and his eyes fell on the column of his name.

Dorothy Bexner.

Joshua remembered the name Dorothy, and there was a player named Dorothy in the Four Kings' Minecraft server.

The name is not common in Nolan.

After Qiao Xiu glanced at the girl standing in front of him, he could basically conclude that she had just come to Nolan not long ago, and... Haven't found a place to stay for luggage.

"I'm from the Iron Country."

Dorothy answered Qiao Xiu truthfully, she didn't think there was anything to hide from such a thing.

In the Land of Steel, Qiao Xiu had never opened a branch of the Hearthstone Tavern outside of Nolan.

And those outsiders' impression of Hearthstone Tavern is no different from ordinary taverns, even if Qiao Xiu broadcast the advertisement of 'Black Stone Mountain' on the TV station, Qiao Xiu does not think that this girl wants to come to the competition on a whim after watching the advertisement.

After all, even Nolan's crowd was concerned about 'where did that black dragon come from?' ’

"Miss Dorothy, the minimum requirement to sign up for the Nolan Open is to have a complete deck and a rank of less than two thousand in the tavern."

Qiao Xiu was able to confirm that the red-haired girl in men's clothes standing in front of him was the Dorothy who played "Minecraft" with the Four Princesses.

"A complete deck? I have a total of twelve sets. ”

Dorothy waved her hand to open the interface of her magic net, wanting to show Qiao Xiu her card deck, but Qiao Xiu smiled and shook his head.

"The beta version on the web can't be classified as 'cards you own.'"

Qiao Xiu interrupted the girl's action of starting the game of Hearthstone with a first step.

"Testing... Version? Dorothy didn't quite understand the meaning of Qiao Xiu's words.

"These cards don't exist in real life, Miss Dorothy, you should be able to understand that, right?" Qiao Xiu said.

Dorothy nodded, of course she understood that the world built in the magic web was completely virtual, whether it was the black dragon Nefarian in "Hearthstone" or the dwarf in the red hat in "Super Mario", they were all virtual products that were drawn by people.

And then somehow let them be brought to life in the fictional world.

"Those cards on the magic web are just lent to you to experience." Qiao Xiu took out a palm-sized black primordial crystal, which was also the 'card box' for storing Hearthstone, "The cards in this are really yours, um... For the sake of you're the first contestant from the Land of Steel, this primordial hedron is a gift. ”

Dorothy took the protozol that Josiu had placed on the table, activated it with her magic, and a transparent interface was revealed from the protocrystal.

This is the interface for my collection in Hearthstone.

"Missing... A lot of cards. ”

Dorothy flipped through the cards in her collection, which were badly missing, with only a few starter decks.

"It's up to you to collect the missing cards." Qiao Xiu said.

"Collecting, it sounds a bit like a story of a dungeon adventure." Dorothy is a shrewd businessman, and she quickly understands what Josiu means by collecting, "How much does a card cost?" ”

"Well, if you're just starting to build your deck collection, I'd recommend starting with packs."

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

Years of business experience made Dorothy vigilant at this moment.

But if she wants to win the next Nolan Open, she won't be able to fight with these base cards.

She slowly walked over to the magic machine and embedded the black crystal in the grooves of the machine.

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

"One... Gold? ”

Dorothy looked at the price of a card pack and was momentarily stunned.

If she remembered correctly, the exchange rate of Nolan's gold coins was three to two to one with that of the Iron Country's currency, the Bisrk.

In other words, the price of a card pack is about one-third of the Bisrk!

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

If it were the same as before, Dorothy might have thought that the price was just a little 'expensive', but now the money she carried in her whole body was only fifty-two syrkes.

Converted to Nolan's gold coins, there were only one hundred and sixty-six gold coins.

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

But here it can only be exchanged for one hundred and sixty packs of card packs, the key is that the cards opened in these card packs are still only the inscriptions that exist in the original crystal, and they are not real things, but virtual things!

Is it really worth it?

Dorothy fell into deep thought.

In the end, she still put all the ten gold coins she had on her body into it on the grounds that it was to save her family's trading house.

Seeing ten gold coins turn into ten packs of cards, Dorothy felt that her heart was dripping blood, and this feeling of dripping blood was far more uncomfortable than when the Chamber of Commerce kept losing money.

Because this is with the private money she saved!

Ten new Classic card packs appeared in her collection inventory, and Dorothy opened her own card pack directly on the magic machine she had purchased.

"Ten packs of a Holy Healer? The shipment rate is still good. Qiao Xiu said on the side.

"Why are they all common and rare qualities?"

Dorothy looked at the new 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 'Holy Healing'.

"Legendary cards aren't that easy to get, and you need a lot of luck." Qiao Xiu said.

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

She forcibly stabilized the excitement in her heart and looked at the magic guide machine in front of her.

"And what's the odds of getting a legendary card?" Dorothy's comptoir also held this kind of raffle, and even the highest prize has at least one chance of getting it.

"One percent...... Probably. ”

Hearing Qiao Xiu's answer, Dorothy took a few steps back slightly, almost not sitting on the ground.

The magic machine in front of her seemed to have turned into a money-devouring monster, baring its teeth and claws towards her purse.

Per cent! Or probably... This means that in order to own a legendary card, you need to draw at least 100 of the same card packs!

That's a hundred gold coins!

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

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

"What about buying cards separately?"

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

She remembered that the cards that Qiao Xiu had just mentioned were available for purchase!

"This is one that other Hearthstone players choose to sell after opening a card, and of course the pricing is also set by them, and there is also a special consignment service here.

Under Qiao Xiu's guidance, Dorothy clicked on the card consignment function on the magic guide machine in front of her.

It shows a large number of Hearthstone cards with a clear price, and judging by the name on the bottom of each card, the cards come from the Hearthstone player, not the owner of the tavern itself.

Dorothy had seen this trade for the first time, and she searched for the one she wanted the most.

It was the warrior's legendary card 'Grom Hellroar', which soon showed more than a hundred results, and the price of each card made Dorothy a little dazzling.

In particular, that golden Grom Hell Roar cost as much as fifteen hundred gold coins!

It's also a little too expensive, are Hearthstone players so rich! This is an ordinary civilian game!

These legendary cards are perfectly comparable to luxury?

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

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

Is this the only reason to give up the game?

Wouldn't it be nice to be a countess in Orsenburg! What a Hearthstone game to run over and play!

Dorothy's grievances had risen to the top, and she fumbled through her purse to find the last gold coin.

It's a souvenir.

She let out a slight sigh and threw the gold coin into the mouth of the 'money-eating' monster machine in front of her, preparing to go back to her hometown to get married after drawing the card pack.

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

The pack shattered into five points under Dorothy's click, and the five cards were spread out flat, and she clicked on four of them with some weakness, all of which were the lowest normal quality cards.

The price placed on the consignment line is less than a silver coin.

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

'Wow! Golden Legends! ’

Dorothy was stunned, she quietly looked at the card floating in front of her, the name of this card was clearly written 'Ragnaros, the King of the Fire Demons'!

The Golden Fire Demon King!

Dorothy's Hearthstone experience this month has taught her that Ragnaros, the Fire Demon King, is definitely the strongest orange card in Hearthstone at the moment, and almost all late-game decks can carry it!

The horrific versatility of this deck also makes it expensive.

Dorothy immediately pulled up the consignment page and found the price of the Fire Demon King's card.

'Ragnaros, Lord of the Fire Demons, Golden Legendary Quality, Consignee: Frost Axe, 4,821 gold coins. ’

4,000 gold coins...... She relied on a gold coin to draw a golden legend worth four thousand gold coins!

Dorothy felt that she was a little unsteady on her feet, and the ups and downs of life made her head a little dizzy, but it was Qiao Xiu next to her who stretched out her hand to support Dorothy, who was a little weak-legged.

"Your luck is better than I thought." If Qiao Xiu remembers correctly, this girl only opened eleven packs.

"I... Maybe you can open a few more packs, can you exchange the bisrk for gold coins here? ”

Dorothy has fully understood at this moment why card packs are so expensive, and there are still people who will pay a lot of money to buy them!

That's the game! The girl had already tasted the fragrance of luck, and she was not going to stop there.

"I don't offer currency exchange services, but I think there are quite a few guests who would be willing to help you."

Qiao Xiu looked behind Dorothy, and when the Golden Fire Demon King was born, the group of dwarves behind had already put down the cards in their hands and looked at the red-haired girl with some incredulity.

In the eyes of these dwarves, the birth of a golden legendary card is no less than digging up a relic that can still be used in the ground!
