Chapter 539 Grab The Opportunity

I would be a fool if I missed out on this opportunity to earn an extra buck from players struggling from the siege. Since no one has decided to exploit them, we might as well do it first.

I have plenty of masks I designed and I got a new one to use for the sake of becoming the mysterious player who started selling potions. That mask is the Plague Doctor mask.

[Plague Doctor Mask]

Type: Mask Equipment

Info: A traditional mask that is a replica of the certain mask that a certain Plague Doctor used. When worn by a user, the user will gain the ability to increase the effectiveness of any medicine within the 20 meters radius vicinity around the player wearing the mask. Medicines-type items sold while wearing this mask will have additional prices added to them depending on how impactful the medicines are. Since it was a replica, the downsides the original has is nonexistent in this particular mask.

Note: "I am the cure!" -quote from the owner of the original mask.

After showing my wares to the resting players, the moment they realized that I am selling potions of a different kind alongside some supplies needed for battle, they didn't hesitate to swarm to me as they started to squeeze to be the first person to buy a potion as soon as possible.

"Don't fight with each other! I have plenty of supplies so please organize yourselves! Come and get it! This will surely help out in your upcoming battles that are still happening!"

"ME! ME! GIVE IT TO ME!"

"Boss! Give me a dozen of Hp Potion XXL, please! I will pay in full!"

"I needed a Mana Potion XXL too! Hey! Stop pushing!"

The players are all chaotic and scrambling to get their share of potions. Of course, I handed all of them to the players who get to pay upfront and waited on the players who have yet to pay as the players started to get more wild just to get served first.

Of course, I didn't have to worry about running out of potions anytime soon. I made sure to brew a lot and with also the help of my mother, we brewed potions quite fast. The others helped by harvesting materials which are ingredients for the items needed. At the end of the day, the amount of money I will receive here is just a small amount as I will be handing most of it to everyone who contributed. But it was already easy enough to keep them on track so I am not worried at all.

The players continue to pour in. Of course, I continue selling stuff to anyone who needed it. Soon enough, the sales started to slow down and the amount of gold I got already reached 20 million gold just by selling the potions. I haven't even sold my stash of other items yet and I already got this much? Very impressive indeed.

Since the sales have gone down a bit, I checked my stocks of potions left in my inventory and I still have a few thousand bottles left. It will take a while but it will eventually dry up in a few moments once the climax of the monster horde for the day will end and the players will be completely wounded.

Still, it was quite easy money for me already and I am quite sure someone will come by tomorrow and will start to imitate what I am doing right now so the only day I can sell potions is only for today only, it will be a different story if I continue to sell stuff tomorrow. The only day I can sell is only for today. Copycats will soon appear so I would rather go and disappear the moment the sale is over. After all, I already got quite a lot of sales.

BOOM!

An explosion occurred in the distance, followed by the roars of players and the sounds of more explosions, blades clashing each other, and screams of pain from the monsters. That means the wave of monsters has already reached the point of no return and the only way to stop them is to kill them and defend the last bastion of the Capital's entire population.

And just like what I expected, a few players started going back to my position and ordered more potions. They ordered a lot and every one of them ordered XXL bottles. It was also very clear that the most profitable item is the Health Potions. I was right that the XXL bottles are the best and everyone has finally gotten a lot of confidence in battle now as they started to defend the place as monsters march through.

As I waited through the current situation, Sigma called.

"Hey Bladeheart, how are the sales doing? Is it that good like you expected?"

"Yep. I already predicted it but still holy crap. That's a lot of money we received. It wasn't that easy but it wasn't hard either. Don't worry, you guys will have big shares once this challenge is done. You guys won't have many problems after this. But don't expect we will get this much of resources forever. We will be only doing this much for today as copycats will soon appear later on. We can then relax and have a good day after that."

The battle has finally entered the climax session. Players have finally entered another round of going to me and ordering potions once more. They came numerous times and since the players are just doing what they do best, they have earned enough money to spare for another thing that would soon fall into my hands.

Once I felt that the situation is getting dire, I decided to switch my products to other stuff and the moment I revealed it, the players started to get ready as they soon realized that the items I had are all explosives.

"Come on, come on! This time around, I switched my products from potions to tools. Sure, the enemies are farther but the moment you realized things are now much different, the products I have would easily defeat enemies in one go. So if you guys have any monster-related problems, then come on by and solve your problems with my line of products!"

Then, I laid out all types of explosives on the table, Molotov type of explosives, grenades, plain explosive dynamites, different pipe bombs, and other stuff that would sure pack a lot of punch once it explodes.

As soon as the players who were just buying potions saw the things I have lined up, they started to order multiple items at once.

"Ah! Damn, where are you man when things were really bad? This is the most lifesaving item ever! Now we will just go and start blasting for the sake of everything now!"

"Oy! Don't use that as a volleyball! It will explode and it might cause damage in return!"

And just like that, it got another huge popularity on the battlefield. Earlier, explosive attacks are pretty rare as the magic spells need quite a lot of mana and it takes a long time before the next thing is ready. But now with my little trinkets for sale, the players who bought from me started blasting at the incoming enemies.

...

The day ended with the siege for the day the moment the sun has fallen has concluded. The players all sighed in relief as the situation was much better. In fact, they managed to survive due to my products. But that is not what is important. The important thing is that I managed to earn quite a lot of bucks that the items that were previously not possible to earn.

Of course, that is not only the good news but the stash I brought for everyone has finally been sold out. Every single bottle of potions and every single explosive I bought along are now sold out and has been converted into quite a lot of money.

The players started celebrating the current situation after a whole day of successful siege finally done for the day. That is also my cue and escape without alerting everyone that I was there before. Not only did I receive quite a lot of money, but it was also evident that some players have already found a reason after a few while in the game already.

I didn't know at that time, that I will become part of the reason for the rise of the EX Jobs after this. And the items that are previously just for the sake of knowing whether they are useful or not will soon appear and will soon have quite different ways to tackle the economy for all players.

And just like that, another legend has been born and the players started to like speculate on the new plague doctor's identity and how he managed to bring the items that will soon destroy everything in its path.
