There were a lot of products displayed, and almost all of them are locked but can be unlocked upon reaching certain levels. And based on the interface, it seems that gold is the currency.
If gold is the currency, then how to earn it?
Richard's gaze flickered over to another floating screen, and there he found that he can earn gold by completing missions, unlocking daily rewards, and by spinning the wheel of fortune.
The more he looked at it, the more it started to look like a game.
As he was busy studying the system over entire night.
