the prophesied academy arc... even here...

Felix gulped a mouthful as his senses warned him that saying yes was nothing good. But, he completely ignored them and nodded his head firmly, "I will be honored!"

typically, people with wealth value stability over slight marginal gains from chance. Most people on the street, when offered $20 or a 50% shot for 50$ would choose the 20 despite it having a lower expected value. As the gamble here had a LOWER expected value than the garuntee, going with it truly made no sense at all... it's just not how people who plan for the long term think. this whole ordeal would be so much more acceptable if the potion was sold at, at minimum, 15 or so billion. (I'm assuming that the total gp value was 1 billion) if he was a person coming from an impoverished background, such frugality would be understandable and offer a chance for character development, but with his wealthy, educated, background, going for a gamble with lower expected value is nigh inexcusable. gods this whole thing bothers me so much

Regret started to wash over Felix like a tide after recalling that he gave up on the elemental potion for 9 billion SC.

literal idiot for not buying the 9b one. I will keep on commenting this. it was such a forced plot contrivance that I think it annoys me even more than all the time he spends being all disgusting and lusty.

"It failed, my materials, my money, my game points, all lost..." Unresponsive to Asna's taunts, Felix kept murmuring to himself in a daze.

again, not buying the 9b one was such a weird, unthought out, course of action.

He might not show it but he honestly was scared shitless that the concoction would fail, wasting at least 4 billion SC of materials and 12k game points.

like seriously, do you actually think all orbits are circular? just take an example everyone knows of, like halley's comet. that thing gets 70x further than its closest point every single time it orbits. The orbit is completely stable, no one is moving it in or out.

All of this caused by the unique orbit that their planet had around their star. For half a year the planet gets a bit too close to the sun while in the other half, the planet strays further away.

... if the success rate is almost less than 50% and a single batch of ingredients, excluding what he previously bought in earlier places, is already 4b(plus the commission price of like 600m? I don't remember), isn't that 9b a good deal?

Still, Felix spent four billion SC to secure an entire batch of materials in the Materials Auction. He preferred holding into his game points whenever he could buy anything with coins.

good good good, it makes sense that these exist in the story

some? empirically, better than all the ones in this game.

"Is it just me or are those golems even better than some gold players?" Lisa commentated with a speechless expression.

oh, I see, it's only to stay inside the alliance. that works, could be rephrased to be less clickbait

This meant those who were unwilling to participate were forced to join whether they liked it or not!

remember, their goal here is to win, not just to defeat landlord.

"No need to bring down the mood." Golden Elixir clapped his hands twice to attract their attention and said, "Two hunters will share one Turtle. This might not be as good as using one Turtle each to locate Landlord, but it was also much safer and secure."

it just doesn't make sense when their actual life is on the line. they're playing like spiteful rpg players with respawn capabilities and no care for the death penalty

Some of them might already have four losses in a row and they couldn't afford to lose the 5th one as they would be forced to drop in silver rank.

here's what I don't get: there can be only one winner. if they hunt and do not fish, they will fall behind in fp. their ONLY win condition is when everyone else is dead because they're so far behind. thus, for any hunter in this agreement to profit, they must kill all those higher than them. knowing this, why would they accept the deal? they're putting themselves in a potentially worse situation. the fishers immediately become the targets of all the hunters and the hunters get far behind anyone not participating.

wait... is this on his island from the beginning?

Who would have thought that Felix's effort to turn the island into one of the best tourist spots on the planet would result in turning it into a shelter?

90%sure he means impeccable

Felix chose the Dark Deviant just because of its excellent anti-surveillance system. Since Felix wanted to launch a single strike, his ambush needed to be implacable!

uhhh author... math pls... you don't gotta do it, especially if it's wrong. like there's literally no need for us to know the exact density, just make comparisons.
