Chapter 115 Long Term Posts
Arthur made it so that any private documents wouldn't be accidentally revealed on screen and would need multiple permissions before it could be accessed. That way, he wouldn't have it open by mistake while someone else was watching.
Arthur also enabled the 'Owner Presence' security which meant that only when he was in the Dream Pod V3 or was holding the Smartphone in his hand would the documents be visible. If it was in the hand of someone else, the documents would not even appear in the directory.
"Phew~ that's good now." Having done all that, Arthur felt a lot better. "Let's get rid of the last proof…" he said before burning the ripped up paper.
The book that possibly contained information worth billions, turned into ashes just like that leaving only Arthur who had access to it now.
"Time to see how much revenue we got now." Arthur flipped open his Smartphone and logged into the Grand Nexus Forums.
>User Identified<
>Logging in!<
>Welcome to Grand Nexus Forums!<
Arthur saw his posts that were still doing rather well and quickly moved on to the revenue section.
<User Revenue>
——
Total Generated: 4697 UC
——
"Ahahah! That's good enough for a deposit all ready!" Arthur couldn't help but laugh out loud after seeing the number.
He quickly clicked on the option to withdraw the funds.
>Would you like to withdraw the Generated revenue?<
"Withdraw all generated post revenue." Arthur permitted.
>4697 UC shall be credited to the user Grey Watcher's account<
Then a moment later, Arthur saw the notification from the bank pop up.
~DING~
>4697 UC has been credited to your account<
>Total Balance: 5844 UC<
He had spent about a 1000 UC on the smartphone before, and a few more UC on some miscellaneous things. But even then he had over five thousand UC which would be more than enough for a deposit for the apartment.
'I'll still have quite a bit leftover and I'll generate more later.' Arthur pondered on it. "With a few more posts, I should have enough to pay a major installment for the Dream Pod V3 as well." He reckoned.
Arthur decided that'll write another article while on the way to the Honeysuckle Street and got ready to leave. Putting on his hoodie, he left his tiny apartment and went downstairs.
No one was there this time around and Arthur quickly walked to the bus stop. A few minutes later, the bus he needed to take arrived and he got on.
'Honeysuckle Street… here we go.' Arthur entered his destination on the digital display and paid for it with his phone before sitting down.
The bus he had taken was different than the previous ones and was a bit more modern. It was of a higher quality and went to the areas that were more affluent.
One could tell the difference in treatment that the people faced, even in sorter of public transport just from this.
Arthur didn't care much about it for now though and just typed away on his phone.
The bus was half full when Arthur got on, and more people joined along the way. But no one paid attention to Arthur, who was engrossed in his phone. It was a common scene and people didn't really care about the others as long as they didn't get in their way.
No one knew that Arthur was writing some high value information on his phone at all. They also wouldn't expect something like this from Arthur's outfit that was still a bit lacking.
Buying new clothes was on Arthur's list of things to do for sure, but it came a bit later.
He would rather prioritize getting the apartment first before doing anything else.
Time passed like this, while Arthur finished writing what was possibly his longest article so far.
——
<How to get to the beginner towns fast! (conditions apply check below)>
-Applies to the players in the following villages only - Pepper Mill Village, Oak Wood Village, and Pointbreak Village.
-Players in any other villages other than these would be able to use this information. Please be warned.
Cost to open article: 2 UC

Arthur smiled as he finished writing the article.
'I should be able to make a lot more this way, haha.' Arthur laughed internally.
Arthur was certainly going to guide the players in getting to the beginner towns, but it would according to his timeline.
'As long as I don't let the players from Kestrel Village know more, it should be fine. Plus, adding information about multiple villages would make the players confused about where I am.' Arthur thought to himself.
By making posts targeting players from different newbie villages, Arthur would be able to make a lot more than normal.
After all, not all the newbie villages were the same and had different areas and mobs around them. Even if the general trend of the quests and mobs was similar, there were still differences that needed to be addressed.
Arthur wished to exploit these and earn a lot more than he would be able to normally.
'Right now, there are around twenty newbie villages that are populated. Soon there would be a lot more joining. I should be able to reap the rewards from these for the coming few days before I move on to the new ones.' Arthur roughly calculated and estimated that he could make at least ten posts by doing this.
Ten posts over time would generate a good amount of revenue, as players would get greedy for progress.
Once they would see others getting ahead, they would wish to do the same and fall to the temptation of the guide. Plus, with the cheap cost of just 2 UC, there wasn't much for them to regret.
Though they didn't know that they were getting spoiled by these secretly.
By giving them the tips and easy methods, Arthur was weakening the player's ability to learn normally.
Thus, when the time came for them to face tough enemies, they would falter and wouldn't be able to keep up!
