HEAD-PATTING IN MARVEL

Chapter 9 : Chat group

*Ding*

The trade panel popped up exactly at 9 o'clock. But unlike the previous trade, he isn't in his room this time. He wants to know if other people can see what he's doing, so he's taking a walk around the house. Not surprising that there isn't anyone else who could see the panel.

Rather than list type, now it is more like an online shopping platform. First, he started by selling his antiquities and artwork he bought, after checking the general price of items.

Now it's easier to find items as the items are listed in categories. There's also categories for bestsellers, hot items and many more making purchase easier. He only got 200 tc now, for the items he sold before.

While scrolling, an item caught his eyes. It's an item for body strengthening that he knows. It's a gene optimization fluid, but now it's listed as an 'elementary' gene optimization fluid.

" I guess the quality gets better with higher authority ." 

Feeling excited, he clicked onto the item panel. Now he can buy higher level stuff.  Also, the product description is quite satisfactory in the higher tier such as;

>A gene optimization fluid that perfects the body, making you as strong as a cheap quality version of Captain America. Gradual strengthening of the body to up to 3 times the strength of a normal adult. Price - 700 ts.

"What the hell?!" 

His mouth was agape. He didn't think that a low priced gene serum has an outstanding effect. If he buys it, he could have his own team of super soldiers. Before he could finalize his shopping, the post was gradually greyed out. He was too late. The item was already sold.

" I can't hesitate next time!" His eyes was burning with determination.

There's an option to contact the seller. Ryan clicked on it and asked ;

Ryan : Hey do you have any more Gene Fluid?

Mythic shopkeeper : My stock is gone. Wait until the next session. Are you new here?

Ryan : Yes, I just got to tier 1.

'How can he/she know about it? Can others find out he's a newbie with only one line?'

Mythic: if you're new you can change your username to something else in the setting. Most guys here do that.

Ryan : why?

Mythic : It keeps the mystery of item selling (laugh) (laugh). It wasn't for keeping yourself from getting cursed or something, but most travelers do this to remember their real world by making their nickname related to it.

Mythic: Some also chose to make a nickname from their current world, so that people can find them quickly if they want to get technology related from that world. You are new so have you entered any group yet?

Ryan : There's a group?

Mythic: you can create a group at Tier 2. You can enter a group from others' invitation though if you're low in authority.

Ryan : I do want to enter a group. Is there a limit to groups you can join?

Mythic : there's none, but the admin may kick you out if you're not active in the group.

'Why does this remind me of discord?'

Ryan went to change his name first before continuing. He changed his name to 'Hydra is a bitch'. No spaces.

Hydra: Can I ask you something? Your serum is relatively precious, why is it so cheap?

Mythic: Ooh, are you from the marvel universe?
