Chapter 0006: The Game Goes on Sale (Part 1)

Hammer agreed with them that he would bring the game disc to this lounge at 4 PM tomorrow. The payment will be made on a first-come, first-served basis. This timing is just right, as middle school students will have finished school by then and will have time to come and make a purchase

Although the fire and electric elements cannot transform into solid forms, they can still take on various shapes in the palm of his hand

The community where his family resides is a middle-class neighborhood in Zone 2 of London, home to tens of thousands of residents. Alexander Hammer returned home with a game disc, had a meal, and chatted with his mother before heading out to the community basketball court

Hammer grew up in this community and knows many people. Today, he brought his laptop and 20 game discs, and his current idea is to gather everyone he knows around the basketball court to let them try out Plants vs. Zombies and see the results.

Hearing that Alexander has found a legitimate way to make a living and is so understanding, his parents are very pleased

However, Alexander did not encounter the situation he had anticipated. Instead of praising him, his mother hurriedly asked, "Where are you making money? With such earnings, Alexander, you wouldn't be doing something wrong, would you?"

He can transform ice magic into ice balls, as well as into dozens of ice needles. The ice magic continuously changes in his hands, taking the forms of ice needles, ice spears, ice balls, and ice roses

A few people thought about it and agreed that staying here would only drive them crazy due to that fool Rick. Moreover, since Rick was hogging the computer without doing anything, it would be better to sell it and go home to play however they wanted.

I also want a portion, I do not want to be with that fool Rick for even a minute, he is driving me crazy

After greeting his friends around him happily, Alexander said: "Rick, I have a game developed by an alumnus of our school who is promoting it. You know I study marketing, and I found it quite impressive after trying it out. I came back to see if you all would like it. A game disc is only 6 pounds, and I brought my computer so you can try it out."

"What game can earn you 400 pounds?" The voice of Alexander's father came from the doorway

Alexander looked at his mother's puzzled expression, speechlessly tapping his forehead in dissatisfaction and said, "Hey, Mom, I am a top student at the University of London. How could I possibly do something bad? Am I really that foolish? I have a bright future ahead of me"

"Then with the money you earn, why do you only go home for such a short time to make that money?" Alexander's mother asked in confusion

OK, Alexander, I would like a copy of ""

Alexander's mother joyfully embraced him and said: "That's wonderful, Alexander, you are truly amazing. You have no idea how hard your father is working right now. He is doing two jobs to support your college education, and we haven't added anything new to the house in a long time"

Rick, you are such a fool. I told you to listen to me, but you wouldn't. Look, you couldn't hold on, now it's my turn to play. You've been hogging it for a long time. Rick and a few others started arguing about who was playing.

Moreover, there are defensive spells that even a sniper rifle cannot penetrate, let alone a handgun. Just thinking about it makes William feel delighted

You want one, he wants one, and soon the 20 game discs brought by Alexander were sold out. Alexander had to rush home to bring the remaining game discs. Within two hours, 200 discs were sold out, and there were still many people around who had not bought any and were clamoring to purchase.

Hello, Alexander, how come you have time to come back today? Weren't you always at school before?

Hammer watched as they argued, attracting the attention of those around him, feeling delighted inside. As Rick and the others began to curse, Hammer quickly intervened, saying: "Hey, guys, I have game discs here, priced at £6 each. It would be much better to buy one and play at home rather than fighting over it with this guy Rick"

As soon as Hammer entered the basketball court, he greeted several acquaintances and after looking around the court, he finally found some of his best friends to play with.

Haha, Mom, you probably don't know, but today is truly my lucky day. I sold 200 game discs in less than 3 hours at the community basketball court, earning 400 pounds

After bidding farewell to Rick, whose belly was round from eating, Alexander Hammer returned home with a joyful expression. Upon seeing his mother, Alexander excitedly exclaimed, "Mom, guess how much money I made today"

William excitedly transported himself from the bathroom back to the bedside, and then the entire room became his experimental ground. He moved to the edge of the table and then to the wardrobe, opening the door more than ten times before he finally stopped, feeling mentally fatigued.

William then practiced all the ice and fire magic. One advantage of this system is that there are no fixed spell patterns; as long as he can skillfully apply them and has sufficient mental strength, he can use any magic he knows in any form.

William thought to himself that he still had to move out, as the dormitory was too small and many spells could not be practiced. Moreover, with so many people in the dormitory, it was inconvenient due to the noise and chatter.

Hammer looked at Rick in astonishment and said: "My goodness, Rick, were you just pretending all along? Buddy, when did your acting skills become so good that even I was fooled? My goodness, I really have to thank you, Rick. If it weren't for you today, there wouldn't have been so many people wanting to buy one to take home and play with. Buddy, everyone was really infuriated by you today"

"Wow, cool. Alexander, you started doing sales in your sophomore year. Buddy, I support you. Let me see how the game is. Is it really as fun as you said?" Rick said.

Alexander brought Rick and the others to the lounge area beside the court, started the notebook and the game, and then let Rick try it out.

William is sleeping soundly, but he does not know that there are some people who cannot sleep today

So, Hammer, are you going to treat me to a meal? I have sacrificed myself to support you, buddy, " Rick said with a strange expression.

"Yes, Mom, I know, but everything at home will be fine," Alexander said confidently

Initially, a few friends in the rest area were relatively quiet as they were unfamiliar with the game. However, within half an hour, under Hanmer's explanation, these individuals began to argue about the placement of plants, and their voices grew increasingly loud. Many of their friends, curious about the commotion, came over.

Alexander Hammer had to promise to bring back the game disc after finishing class tomorrow afternoon in order to calm everyone down

In the community basketball court, there are more than ten courts filled with people playing basketball. Although there are quite a few middle-aged individuals, over 90 percent are teenagers

Sitting back on the bed to meditate, William was surprised to find that his mental strength was restored in less than a minute. He now truly felt like a magical genius. If he were to engage in a fight in the future, he could open a portal right next to his enemy, first unleashing a barrage of gunfire, and if that didn't work, he could follow up with a flurry of spells. When he ran out of magic, he could simply step back into the portal, wait for a few dozen seconds, and then return near the first portal to unleash another storm of magic. Who could withstand such an onslaught? First, a barrage of gunfire, and if that didn't work, a flurry of spells, and when out of magic, retreat into the portal, wait a few seconds, and return to unleash another magical storm. Who could endure this?

He was also practicing fire magic, ice magic, nature magic, and even William saw light magic, healing spells. William was taken aback; healing spells, do such spells even exist

After watching the games on the notebook for a while, many people began to engage in heated discussions.

In the system of magical frameworks, one can cultivate spatial magic while simultaneously enhancing physical attributes through spatial magic itself

Many people even directly gave him money for the game discs, while some who did not bring money and could not find anyone to borrow from were extremely frustrated, fearing that there would be no stock available again tomorrow

Once I have learned the defensive spells, I will not worry about it anymore and will just wash up and go to sleep. I haven't had a good night's sleep these days. In modern society, there is not much danger, and staying in university is even safer. England is not like America, where there are daily campus shootings, and teachers and students carry guns to school.

Alexander Hammer, an outstanding student from the Marketing Department of the University of London, went to William's today at noon to pick up 200 game discs before rushing back to his neighborhood.

"No problem, let's go, buddy, I will treat you to a feast" said Hammer, as he rubbed Rick's shoulder. The two of them chatted and laughed as they went to enjoy a meal. Although it was called a feast, it was actually just a community restaurant, known for its affordable prices and generous portions. In the past, whenever he and a few friends had something to celebrate, they would come to this restaurant. Everyone was familiar with each other's families, and being able to come to this restaurant was already quite good.

Alexander looked at his surprised mother with joy, happy to be able to help alleviate the financial pressure on his parents

At this moment, Rick, who had been occupying the notebook, stood up and said to Hammer, "Hey, buddy, how did I perform? Ha, Hammer, I told you I was a genius, right? It seems my acting skills from school were not in vain. I won't do what those guys said, just to infuriate them. If they want to play, they should buy a copy"

Based on today's sales analysis, Alexander is confident about the sales prospects of the game called Plants vs. Zombies

Moreover, he experiences no aftereffects from using magic, only mental fatigue

Seeing his father return, Alexander happily said to him, "Dad, the game was developed by an alumnus of my school. Many students at our school think the game is excellent, so we sourced it from him at 4 pounds per disc. Today, we sold it for 6 pounds each to people in the community at the basketball court. It sold incredibly well, and there are still many people who couldn't buy it. Tomorrow, after my classes, I will go to the alumnus to restock. Given today's situation, I believe we can sell several thousand game discs in our community and the surrounding areas. Dad, I will soon be able to earn my own money, and you and Mom won't have to work so hard anymore"
