Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

Dulles City, in front of the Starry Sky Church.

7:20 am.

The square at the entrance was already packed with people, with stalls connected to each other in a big circle. This area had become a safe zone in the main city.

These people were essentially reselling supplies needed for various opening events, and their business was quite good. They supported a number of small vendors, and even attracted local residents who set up stalls nearby.

Jinse's face was tense and she was very nervous. She had used up all her capital this time, but she was still ranked fifth. Her position as the hero who opened the door was shaky. She had been working hard for three years and had fought her way here. She would fight to the end no matter what.

"Shorty... No, God Jin is very rich." At this time, there was a commotion among the people queuing around. Brother Tangshan walked over from a distance and said with a smile.

"That's not possible. We can only survive on the meager prize money from the competition. We only have a few warehouses of supplies. Zhou Shen is the rich man. His live broadcast business is booming."

Jinse also had a fake smile on her face. She was recently reading a sadistic novel called "The Black-hearted Prince's Beautiful Abandoned Concubine". The villain in the novel, the Eighth Prince, was just as weird as Brother Tangshan. In the book, not only was he weird all the time, he also used various means to cut off the heroine's kidneys and made soup. Jinse was almost angry enough to get breast cancer while reading this book. At this time, she automatically classified Brother Tangshan as the villain and retorted.

Their eyes collided with each other, and Brother Tangshan snorted and couldn't help but feel a heart attack. The competition results and Gleipnir were his two major weaknesses. Now that his weaknesses were attacked, he couldn't even fight back with his mouth, and could only use his eyes to attack the opponent's height.

"Oh, shorty, Zhou Ming, you two great guys are here so early. What are you discussing? Are you discussing height? Or are you discussing the results of the competition?" At this time, Shuidi Chenxing also came here with boxes of supplies. Today he specially put on a set of +15 weapons and armor, and from a distance he looked like a moving ball of light.

"Oh my god, this is so annoying..." Jinse and Brother Tangshan fell into silence. Except for not being handsome, Shuidi Chenxing looked like Da Zhangwei, but he was rich, tall, and had good competition results. This was the first time they found Shuidi Chenxing so annoying.

Around 8am.

There was a commotion in the distance, and the crowd was separated. Zhou Ning, wearing a white windbreaker, arrived at the scene along with Kelly and Bruce Wayne.

"This... the Wayne version in the white windbreaker is so damn handsome!" Jinse followed Zhou Ning's figure with her eyes wide open in a daze, and was instantly stunned by the sudden beauty.

Looking at the others, their reactions were similar to mine. It seemed like I wasn't alone in this illusion. Not only was the game fun, but I could also see Wayne all the time. Playing Apocalypse was such a joy!

Zhou Ning couldn't help but cough dryly. He seemed to have underestimated the charisma boost of the "Friendship Robe." His base charisma was already terrifying, but perhaps this charisma was truly transcendent. Even these players, already accustomed to his charm, couldn't help but stare in awe. He was really dragging things out!

The closing time for the opening event had been previously determined, and it would officially end around 3 p.m. With about seven hours left, it was foreseeable that the next seven hours would be a bloody affair.

To this end, Zhou Ning spent a large amount of money on the lottery yesterday, filling up the wishing pool and personal store to the brim. He was just waiting for the players to take the bait.

When the opening ceremony resumed, Jinse immediately opened the wishing well and cast her eyes on it.

"Dragon Sword..."

"Thor's Sword..."

"Tessaiga..."

"The undefeated purple grass..."

"Fang Tian Hua Ji..."

……

“…Oh my god…”

There are so many top-quality items! Jinse's eyes widened, and she continued to hand in the supplies without hesitation. She was going to show off her power today.

Her investment method was different from others. She didn't put too much money into strengthening, but instead used donated materials to directly draw from the wishing pool. This was the most cost-effective method. She had quietly accumulated these cheap materials for three versions, storing a huge amount of materials, and only now was she taking them out all at once.

Time passed by minute by minute, and from time to time, players would cheer when they drew something good. In particular, a druid player named "You De Bi You Shi" drew the Thunder God Sword and was immediately entangled by the Underwater Sinking Star:

"Brother, are you selling your weapons? I'll pay a high price!"

Pulling out a weapon alone, what luck! Zhou Ning was very familiar with this player called "You De Bi You Shi"; he was simply an eccentric. Even though his druid mentor had already died, he managed to reach level 58 by relying on the general skills he learned from him.

In the end, the sword was sold for 62000 Victoires, which was just a mediocre piece of art in the wishing well.

Zhou Ning is like an old farmer, watching with satisfaction that his own chive field thrives, being cut and growing again, and being cut again.

He didn't bother to control the item drop rate. The probability of winning good things like the Sword of Victory and Promise was about 0.1%, and the probability of winning miracle items was about 0.3%-0.5%, which was impossible to win.

But at this moment, a noisy voice came from not far away:

"Fuck, the short girl is out!"

"What happened?" Shuidi Chenxing hurried over and exclaimed after a moment:

"Holy crap! The Miracle Item Ascending Dragon Sword? Is Jin Shen selling it? I'll pay a high price."

Then he was pushed aside by Blue Melancholy, the owner of the Deep Blue Club: "I can't sell anything."

"Is this all because of a miraculous item?" Zhou Ning's eyes narrowed and froze in an instant.

Fortunately, the continuous shipments sparked a new wave of enthusiasm for the opening event. The wishing fountain, in particular, saw a buying frenzy. For a moment, the square was filled with the sound of people praying to Zhou Ning for good luck.

Zhou Ning only occasionally responded to these prayers, using golden light and shadow effects to give them positive feedback, and then they would be able to draw some ordinary unknown strange objects.

Soon after, several top-tier unknown artifacts from the Wishing Well were drawn one after another. The top five in the faction event remained: Shuidi Shenxing, Haicheng, Vayne Lion Twei, Tangshan Big Brother, and Jinse. As of 3:00 PM, if this ranking remained unchanged, they would be the fourth opening heroes.

Zhou Ning had already prepared their ultimate reward, and the authority of "Gun God" was the best reward.

Time passed quickly. In the next few hours, the top five positions kept changing wildly and the competition was very fierce. As the most powerful profession currently recognized, there were many wealthy players among the Wandering Gunners, and there were many who could spend money lavishly. Shuidi Shenxing's first place was still very stable, but Jinse had dropped to sixth place, and his face turned green.

But since she had already rushed here, she had no choice but to take out all the dowry. Jinse gritted her teeth and had no choice but to continue rushing.

At the last minute, the awkward scene reappeared. The top wishing pool had barely been touched, but the bottom pool was practically empty. This made Zhou Ning feel like he was committing a scam. But the players didn't care. To them, wasn't it normal for the top prize to be so hard to come by? Contribution points continued to soar.

Finally, by 3 p.m., Jinse made a final push, managing to hold onto fifth place. Since the reward was the Gunslinger's Authority, the cost was ridiculously high. The final opening heroes were then determined: Shuidi Shenxing, Haicheng, Tangshan Daxiong, Alex, and Jinse, in that order. Yes, Alex ultimately edged out Vayne and Shitwei for fourth place.

Jinse breathed a sigh of relief silently. It was a close call. She almost became the heroine of a tragic novel, and her efforts were in vain.
