Chapter 8: Different Prices for Golden Collectibles?!
North of the administration building at Dam Zero is an area made up of shipping containers, the same length as the entire administration building.
Further north is the interior area of Dam Zero, separated from the outside by a concrete wall.
Except for the easternmost evacuation point, the interior of the dam is not always open. It is usually in one of three states: completely closed, open, or requires completing a wall-breaking task to enter.
Yang Feiqi just observed that the interior of the dam is currently sealed off, and the task of breaking through the wall requires going out from the west building to the outside to receive it.
Although Yang Feiqi was not sure if there was a mission, completing the "Breaking Through the Wall" mission required clearing out a large number of Asara minions.
Given the current strength of Asara's minions, Yang Feiqi is worried that if he tries to do a mission alone, he will be trapped inside the dam's vault by the minions and unable to get out.
So he didn't bother to check if there was a mission, and simply chose to clear out all the ALS soldiers in the container area first.
I checked the time; there were still twenty minutes left.
In the game before the time travel, the evacuation point on the Zero Dam map was a three-minute delay after the gate was closed.
Now that the time available for action has been extended, the countdown to pulling the plug and evacuating has reached eighteen minutes.
So Yang Feiqi went to the control room and pulled the evacuation gate.
With a loud broadcast that echoed throughout the administration building of Dam Zero, the evacuation point on the map of Dam Zero was activated.
Eighteen minutes later, all players located near the evacuation point will evacuate from this map.
However, Yang Feiqi did not rush to the evacuation point. He first threw away the samurai bulletproof vest that he was wearing, which had 40 durability points but a maximum durability of only 50.
Then go back to the box where Said was, and put on the samurai bulletproof vest that still had 80 points of durability left.
Then go downstairs to the westernmost part of the container area and begin searching the containers throughout the entire area.
Although the container area is not as well-stocked as the administration building, it still has two high-explosion-rate air cargo containers.
When Yang Feiqi touched the second flight box, he found a Level 4 Armored Repairman.
Considering that a Level 4 Armor Repairer only costs 40,000 Haff coins and takes up three slots, Yang Feiqi directly used the Armor Repairer to repair his Samurai Bulletproof Vest.
After looting the entire container, Yang Feiqi headed towards the evacuation point while estimating his earnings.
Not counting the 4.4 million yuan room key for the manager's office in the east building, his income had reached 1.1 million yuan.
If you include the room key, the income would be 5.5 million.
Previously, this kind of income was only possible with top-secret maps.
The exchange rate between Haffcoins and real-world currency in this world seems to be 100 to 1.
In other words, Yang Feiqi's income from this trip, converted into real money, was as high as 50,000 yuan.
They made a killing.
No wonder there are special training schools for tomb raiders in war-torn areas.
As the evacuation countdown ended, Yang Feiqi felt everything go black.
When he opened his eyes again, he had already left Dam Zero.
However, he did not return to school, but instead came to a place that was very similar to the Special Operations Unit that everyone in the Delta game had before he transmigrated.
However, this special operations unit is more than ten times larger than the one in the game, and there are a lot of people walking around.
"Students who just evacuated, come here to settle your accounts."
Yang Feiqi looked up and saw that his teacher was not far ahead.
Just as he was about to walk over, another person came up beside him.
He was the fat guy who spoke to him before he entered the special operations warehouse.
"Old Yang." The fat man put his arm around Yang Feiqi and whispered to him, "Don't go over there yet."
"What's wrong?" Yang Feiqi looked at the fat man in confusion.
"The special operations department at this school is really shady. They just charge you the normal Haff coins for gold items. I didn't even know that, and I ended up getting ripped off with a pirate coin."
"Uh, is there some significance to golden items?" Yang Feiqi didn't understand what the fat man meant.
"Are you stupid?" The fat man patted Yang Feiqi's chest and continued, "Haf coins are settled at a ratio of 100 to 1. But gold items are settled at a ratio of 10 to 1 in Haf coins outside."
A pirate gold coin worth 58,000 Haff coins should be worth 5,800, but they only paid me 580 here.
Yang Feiqi hadn't expected that items in the war zone of this world, especially those of gold rank or higher, would have an additional conversion rate.
He then asked, "How are the red items calculated?"
"It's a one-to-one exchange rate. If it's a particularly rare red item, there might even be a premium." The fat man said to Yang Feiqi, "Haf coins can only be exchanged for resources in the Beacon Zone, but gold and red collectibles can be used to craft vehicles in the Total War mode and to build and upgrade Special Operations Units. How can it be settled simply based on the value of Haf coins?"
With Fatty's explanation, Yang Feiqi also understood the value of the collectibles in this war zone.
As mentioned before, the Delta can be divided into two modes: the fire zone and the all-out battlefield.
The supplies in the Fire Zone are not particularly significant in the real world. However, the gold and red items in the Fire Zone can be crafted by the Special Operations Department into war tools such as tanks, helicopters, and rocket launchers for use in the full-scale battlefield.
Only by achieving a certain number of victories on the battlefield can one obtain technologies from the Delta that humanity has not yet developed.
In other words, gold and red items are actually very important and cannot be simply valued using Huff coins.
After the fat man finished speaking, Yang Feiqi immediately realized what he meant.
The value of the two room cards I obtained from the map earlier was definitely not calculated in terms of ordinary HAF coins.
Because there are two safes in the East Building manager's office with a high probability of yielding red items, they are important containers for players to gamble for red items.
Therefore, the manager's office in the east building is most likely also directly linked to the value of real-world currency.
"What if I want to sell things?" Yang Feiqi asked, pointing to his backpack.
"Even though this is the school's special operations unit, the school can't just take away the supplies from our chest straps, pockets, and backpacks. You can just secretly hide the gold and red items."
"Okay, thanks bro." Yang Feiqi patted the fat man on the shoulder to express his gratitude.
"By the way, how much supplies did you bring out this time? Did you estimate it? Let me tell you, I risked going into the small substation this time and finally brought out supplies worth 300,000 Haff coins."
"I'm confident I'll be in the top ten among our group of trainees," the fat man said proudly.
"I didn't calculate it," Yang Feiqi lied, then deducted the value of the two room cards and the crossbow he had previously obtained, and said, "But it should be over 500,000."
"You're bragging, 500,000? Wait a minute!"
At first, the fat man didn't believe it, but he soon discovered that the bag Yang Feiqi was carrying was actually a 24-slot MVP reconnaissance bag, and the armor he was wearing was actually a samurai bulletproof vest!
