[Shield Heroine / Not Overpowered / Anime Fan Fiction]
In the perception-defying full-dive game NewWorld Online, Lin Zhe awakens the unique class [Tycoon]: gold is power, and wealth is health. While other players obsess over grinding monsters and leveling up, his way of fighting is to unleash a capital storm, blast the battlefield apart with AOE skills fueled by burning gold, and cripple guilds' economic lifelines with leveraged blowouts.
"Defense? My armor is a financial statement, and my shield is a stock chart."
Maple comes crashing into his business empire, munching on maple cookies. "But my shield can block a boss. Can your gold?"
"Of course." Lin Zhe's abacus flashes with golden light. "All we have to do is put the boss on the short-selling list."
This is a wild collision between financial logic and game mechanics: gold can buy the right to clear a dungeon, corporate espionage is deadlier than an assassin, and the ultimate endgame skill is plunging the entire server into an economic bubble. When the shield heroine with absolute defense meets a tycoon who burns gold, the most hardcore online game world is about to be swept away by the most unreasonable tide of capital...
It doesn't matter if you give yourself a five-star rating, no one will see it anyway [laughs evilly]
