Chapter 458: Chapter 158: Heaven wants to ruin me! Then I’ll have to take someone down with me!_2

OK, cut this segment and paste it into the video as is.

It should help Number One Player Company get a wave of promotion.

...

"The optimization this time is pretty good, they fixed the bug where players couldn’t spend money."

In God Nick’s live streaming room, Cloud Top went online the moment it finished maintenance.

And he started live-streaming the card draw.

The stunning drop rate and the mechanic of unique drops left the entire audience in the live stream dumbfounded.

Many viewers started to log in, ready to vent the frustration accumulated over more than ten days in the in-game store!

Even including some players who didn’t usually play Cloud Top, who felt the mechanics were a bit confusing, but purely thought this game company was too conscientious, downloaded Cloud Top and spent a few tens of dollars to use it as a card draw simulator.

For a time, Cloud Top was flourishing!

Revenue also started to surge forward! Charging towards the top spot of the new game rankings!

Meanwhile.

At the Number One Player Company, in the CEO’s office.

Ke Jin also opened the Cloud Top client as soon as the server went live.

He intended to try the little plugin he had made himself.

To see if the effect was good or not.

Before opening the store, Ke Jin almost laughed out loud.

Because he imagined a bunch of tycoons anxiously waiting outside the storefront, looking at the queuing list running into hundreds or thousands, their expressions extremely agitated, and he found the thought incredibly satisfying.

Just thinking about the scene was funny.

They were truly ridiculous!

Jesters! A bunch of clowns who wanted to spend money! Hahaha!

"Huh?" But the next moment, Ke Jin’s smile froze on his face.

As soon as he clicked on the store, he could enter right away.

The loading speed was lightning fast!

"That’s not right..." Ke Jin scratched his head, exited, and clicked it again.

Still, he got in instantly...

Ke Jin looked up in confusion at the wall clock.

The hands pointed to 9 PM.

At this time, it should be the peak of player activity, and when the store servers were under the most strain.

But why...

Why is the store loading as smoothly as if it had been coated with Dove chocolate?

After several unsuccessful attempts, Ke Jin logged out completely and tried again, to no avail.

He even restarted his computer.

Still no use!

There wasn’t a single person queued up in the storefront!

Filled with a sense of foreboding, Ke Jin hurriedly opened the system backend’s real-time revenue tracking interface.

With just one glance, his pupils dilated.

For the past ten days, the revenue had almost been locked below 20 million.

But today, after the maintenance, and in less than half an hour since the servers went live...

The backend revenue data had already doubled!!

Now it stood at over 42 million, and it was still soaring at the insane rate of five to six thousand dollars per second!

Faced with such a terrifying sight.

Only one word crossed Ke Jin’s mind.

Damn it!

This thing could make 50 million in an hour...

With a minimum target of 300 million... even if the trend slowed down later, it looked like it would break through in less than a week...

In such a situation, even if he activated the final stand buff, it would be to no avail.

The final stand might allow using all 300 million in revenue for recycling, but there were still almost 20 days left until the end of the month.

Getting back to 300 million wouldn’t be a problem at all.

What’s more, the final stand buff might have side effects, tempting the players to spend again.

The last time Eternity held an event, it was like that.

They thought it would reduce the flow of money, but after the event’s huge success, the revenue increased almost tenfold... like trying to stop a breach in a dam that simply could not be plugged.

However, if they thought they could defeat Mr. Ke, who had been hardened by a thousand trials, they were still a bit lacking.

After so many failures, Ke Jin’s mentality had been tempered to be as strong as steel.

Pick me up, I can still fight!

If the queuing plugin couldn’t stop them, then just keep lowering it!

If 30% wasn’t enough, then go for 10%!

If 10% wasn’t enough, then try 1%!

Until he blocked all the tycoons out!

Ke Jin couldn’t care less at this point!

Kill them! All the tycoons!

Must die!

And just as he had adjusted the queuing plugin to 1% the next moment.

What happened next crushed Ke Jin’s last hope.

As he operated back and forth,

he had barely set the limit to 1% and hadn’t even caught his breath.

Suddenly, his computer emitted a warning sound.

A prompt box popped up on the screen.

[Oops, the queuing plugin crashed~]

Ke Jin: "???"

Good lord... does tormenting others ultimately lead to being tormented?

Previously, whenever players opened the store, they would see this prompt.

Who would have thought, after thirty years on one side of the river, it has come to my side?

With a complex expression, Ke Jin had no time to react.

At the moment the plugin crashed,

alarm bells rang loudly in his mind.

It was just like the thrilling scenes in a spy movie when the infiltrator is detected by the enemy’s sensors.

[Ding ding ding] The sound kept echoing in his mind, the alarm bells nearly shattered.

Then, the system interface turned red from blue, changing from a tech-blue glow to a deep red color.

Continuously emitting ’Warning!!’ ’Warning!!’ ’Warning!!’ sounds!

Upon closer inspection,

with the complete crash of the queuing plugin, the per-second revenue had broken past ten thousand!

If this trend continued, surpassing 300 million in revenue...

That would probably happen in the next couple of days.

This rate of increase, probably even Brother Tong Zi hadn’t seen it since he bound himself, which is why he was taken aback.

Ke Jin could distinctly feel Brother Tong Zi’s panic.
