Infinity World: The Legends of the Legendary Astral Gladiator

In the year 2050, a company called Carnival Entertainment Org but also known as C.E.O, created something that everyone dubbed "the perfect game". A virtual reality game, a VMMORPG with a magical and almost real world called Infinite World. Where the motto is: One World, Infinite Possibility. Players can do whatever they want as if it were real life, as long as it doesn't go beyond the rules imposed by the company. Fish? Design and create clothes? Forge weapons? Cook? Mine? All this was possible and more. Hand skills can be used at the player's will so that he can create anything up to something that exists in real life. Combat classes? Magic classes? Ranged classes? Everything was possible. A player could learn any skill from any class as long as they have the required attributes and skill books. A warrior can use magic or a mage can use a bow. In Infinite World, players choose the possibilities for their characters. ... Wang Cai was a regular player of Infinite World, but he found the quest that gave him one of the game's tens of thousands of hidden classes, the Astral Gladiator. Because of his health problem due to a work accident, Wang Cai stayed in the hospital for several years. His parents died about ten years ago and his best friend also died in the hospital a few years earlier due to a car accident. With no visits from relatives, Wang Cai had a lonely life in the hospital, so he was immersed in Infinite World. But there was one exception, the only one exception he would never forget in his life. In his last breaths, he was discovering the last secret of the Astral Gladiator class. But destiny was cruel to him. Before he could look, he took his last breath and died. However, just as it was cruel, destiny was also something magical and strange. For some unknown reason, Wang Cai got another chance to discover this secret.

My Shop's auction

In the basement of some mansion in the Agoria Kingdom…

Wang Cai's theory was right, some general or noble was helping the Ancient God's Sect.

"The Steak Ball side failed. Someone intervened and killed him."

"Steak Ball, how did you die so fast?"

"An assassin killed me. His damage was so high that just one critical hit was enough to do over twenty thousand damage, the two hits were enough to do almost thirty thousand damage. I couldn't even see who it was because I was stabbed in the back."

"That's unexpected. But there aren't that many assassin players at that level in the Agoria Kingdom. It makes things easier."

"We also have another problem. The dagger was stolen. Also, that guy must be doing a quest about the missing nobles or that woman's dead husband. Otherwise, he would not have shown up at the mansion."

"I think it's about the dead husband. Since there is no evidence that the Ancient God's Sect was in the mansion. So there was only the second option left. This is really bad luck."

"But did the others manage to complete the task?"

"Not all. Some were interrupted in the same way but had chances to escape. The only problem is that we leave clues"

"We need to leave the city to go to the hideout, there must be new quests for us to pick up."

"I'll do it tomorrow. Now, I have to get out of the game to go to the market."

"I need to go to the bathroom"

"..."

These were some of the problems with playing online games with friends.

Some would always have to do some things during game time.

Two days later…

"My Shop is inviting you to the first major clothing auction that will take place in two days!!!!"

"My Shop is inviting you to the first major clothing auction that will take place in two days!!!!"

"My Shop is inviting you to the first major clothing auction that will take place in two days!!!!"

"Under the sponsorship of the Silver Hands' Old Shop, we have received some clothes to sell and part of the money will be donated to Plavin City's orphanage. You will not only help children in need, but you will also get beautiful and powerful clothes to wear."

"Under the sponsorship of the Silver Hands' Old Shop, we have received some clothes to sell and part of the money will be donated to the Plavin City orphanage. You will not only help children in need, but you will also get beautiful and powerful clothes to wear."

A group of NPCs and players advertised the auction of the only player-owned store in Plavin City.

As NPCs were working in the shop, there might have been quests.

So, some poorer players and beginners accepted the job in exchange for some gold coins.

Before long, more and more players and NPCs gather around the shop to see the auction, as something sponsored by the Silver Hands' Old Shop would not be common and not cheap.

Only the rich would have the chance to buy something like that as usual.

"WHICH??? THE AUCTION ENTRY FEE IS ONE GOLD COIN???!!!!"

"YOU ARE TRYING TO STEAL FROM US???!!!!!"

"THIS IS A DAYLIGHT ASSAULT!!!!!"

"THIS IS A JOKE, RIGHT?? THAT EXPENSIVE CLOTHING STORE WOULD NEVER PARTNER WITH A CASUAL AND CHEAP STORE LIKE THIS!!!!"

"YOU ARE JUST USING THEIR NAME TO ANNOUNCE THE AUCTION!!!!"

Players scream in rage because no one commented that there would be an entry fee to enter the auction. Thus, the poorest became angry.

The richest understand that a private auction was different from the auction house, where there were absurd fees.

By the shop's auction, there would be no outrageous fees, just ten percent because of the kingdom's tax.

A few big shots kept an eye on the auction to see if there was anything good to buy, but they just stood aside and didn't buy the entrance ticket, only a few brave ones did.

Before long, only about thirty gold coins were received, meaning less than thirty players and NPCs bought the entry fee.

Despite being curious about the clothes, many were still skeptical about what could be up for auction. Since the shop didn't have a great reputation within the city or kingdom.

Only when there are lots of auctions and monster sales will the store start to gain a reputation.

That was the first and most important challenge.

Thus, this auction was very important and crucial to the store's fame.

"Manager, it looks like the auction will be a failure."

"It will not be a failure. Just let everyone know that after the auction starts, the entry fee will be increased to one thousand gold coins. As the first My Shop's auction, we have to make a big impact on our customers."

"Yes, manager. We understand"

"Important announcement!!!!!!"

"Once the auction starts, the entry fee will be one thousand gold coins. Enjoy it while it's cheap"

"Once the auction starts, the entry fee will be one thousand gold coins. Enjoy it while it's cheap"

The signed players started screaming, and despite not believing much in the matter, they still decided to do it. Since they accepted the quest.

"This is a joke, right??"

"Are they so desperate to get the attention that they are doing this?"

"This is a big joke. Who would be insane to want to go to that auction?"

"The idiots who bought their ticket to the auction must be just trying to impress that busty manager over there"

The players who were listening to the screams thought it was the most ridiculous thing in the world.

When did nobody want to participate in the auction by paying a gold coin, then who would pay a thousand gold coins? This was great insanity.

After about half an hour, the auction would finally start.

At the door of My Shop, a small crowd was looking curious about what was going to be sold, but only about fifty players and NPCs were participating in the auction.

In front of the crowd were the three NPCs hired by Wang Cai to work at the store.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we appreciate your support of My Shop. As we announced before, thirty percent of the money raised by the auction will go to Plavin City's orphanage. As this is our first auction, My Shop has carefully chosen the clothes to be sold, you will not be disappointed. I know everyone is looking forward to the auction so I will get started."
