Chapter 261 The Education Bureau, the carnival of black businessmen!
"Mermaid Queen!"
"It only takes 50,000 points and a psionic crystal to upgrade!"
"More than 80% of aquatic creatures have a favorable impression, and 100% of mermaids have a favorable impression!"
Among the three upgrade attributes, Sumo saw the eye-catching third one at a glance.
Not to mention the six new abilities derived from this upgrade method, the bug-level ability of favorability alone is quite unbelievable!
Unfortunately
"It's fine if it's 50,000 points, but you need a nether energy crystal, which is too expensive!"
If you run out of survival points, you can earn more, and the upgrade method can also be gradually increased. But if you run out of nether energy crystals, you want to wait for the next one, and you don’t know when it will be.
"Try to return to your ancestors first. If it doesn't work, you have to think of other ways. You can't spend all your survival points on this."
Yesterday's gain was only 900 points, and another 2,800 points had to be spent, which is equivalent to negative growth.
Even though there were still a small 20,000 survival points, Sumo still felt a little distressed after seeing another 2,800 survival points disappear.
Fortunately, the changes in the tortoise shell on the ground quickly attracted Somo's attention.
The mermaid's blessing, which originally accounted for only about 10%, suddenly expanded like an inflated ball after receiving the help of the system's green light.
The area is only so big, what should I do if I want to become stronger?
It was a robbery at that time!
In Somo's sight, the green light of the system seemed to be the backer of the mermaid. Before the lion man could react, he was stabbed hard by the powerful mermaid.
Then when the lion man reacted, the mermaid had already occupied 30% of the territory, and the lion man's suppression was completely broken.
As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain.
After the lion man's black and blue reaction, the two immediately "struggled" together. One moment you were riding on my head, and the other moment I was on your crotch.
After about five minutes, when the mermaid finally got half of the territory, the system sent out the final boost.
This boost directly caused Mermaid to charge forward. From the initial 10% of the territory, it finally expanded to about 65%, mainly against customers.
And between the two, there is also a zone accounting for about 5%.
In this zone, the two blessings are magically blended together. They seem to be fighting each other, but they also seem to be fused together.
"Good guy, if you look at it this way, the mermaid's blessing is stronger than the lion's wind!"
Fighting with the magical power of "blessing" is quite new.
But what Sumo is most concerned about is the achievement of returning to his ancestors, which cost a whopping 2800 points.
Concentrating his thoughts, after half a second of scanning, a light blue panel appeared with a new mermaid blessing attribute.
Extraordinary attributes: Ocean affinity (lv1)-growth potential (two and a half stars)
Extraordinary source: The blessing from the real mermaid clan priest, and during the blessing process, signs of a second return to the ancestors were slightly triggered. The high priest of the mermaid clan personally presided over the return to the ancestors ceremony.
Extraordinary ability ①: Avoid water (when the shelter is completely surrounded by the ocean, no moisture will enter the shelter by default, and it will not cause any water corrosion to the shelter shell - it can be upgraded to enhance waterproofing)
Extraordinary ability ②: Breathing (after receiving the highest blessing from the mermaid clan for foreign creatures, oxygen will circulate by itself in the shelter - it can be upgraded to increase the circulation rate)
Extraordinary ability ③: Friendly (the shelter and its players naturally gain a certain amount of favor from marine creatures)
Evaluation: According to legend, this is the best blessing from the mermaid family to foreign creatures, and they sincerely wish them a peaceful life in the sea.
"Great!"
"As expected, the ability to avoid water has been further improved, and the special effect of breathing has also been added."
"Is this friendliness caused by the talisman?"
Pulling out the talisman paper from the storage space, Sumo looked at it curiously. Now, the talisman paper has been charged 70% since it was last used.
At this rate, you only need to wait for more than ten days before you can use it again.
Moreover, the flood that had evolved on the talisman paper turned into waves crashing on the rocks, which looked extremely mysterious.
I tried to put the talisman paper close to the core. Unfortunately, this time the talisman paper and the mermaid blessing seemed to be dead, and there was no "chemical reaction" between the two like the last time.
"It seems that the energy accumulation must be full before the special effects can be triggered."
Looking at the talisman and the mermaid's blessing, the breathing and breathing are at the same frequency, and looking at the core that has now grown by half.
Following Somo's thought, the two items disappeared into the underground shelter at the same time.
In the apocalypse, being able to upgrade is a simple and simple pleasure.
Reopening the iron door on the first floor and looking at the sparse refugees migrating to Tieshi Mountain outside, Sumo stretched beautifully.
Man, it's just weird.
When I'm alone, when I see people of the same kind, I really want to move there and live together.
But when people actually come, they will be on guard again, fearing that the other party will take away their "interests", and want to put a layer of thorns on their bodies to protect themselves.
Especially when the opponent is a strong person, this strange psychology will be even more serious.
This is the case for these relocated refugees from Candlelight Village.
When Somo went there before, every time he saw these refugees, he could see the lingering respect on their faces.
But now, when they abandon their original "hometown" and really move to Somo, we can see a trace of fear of superiors in their eyes.
They are afraid that Soma's current status will usurp their interests.
They were afraid that Soma would use them as a shield and command them to die in the apocalyptic wasteland.
It is easy and simple to rebel against the management of Candlelight Shelter. At worst, everyone will mutiny and leave together to create a new shelter.
But when it comes to Somo, you can't help yourself, and you will basically be trapped for the rest of your life!
"People are very cautious before making every choice, including these poor people. It seems that no one has the courage to invest all their wealth."
"However, keeping such an appropriate distance is good for them and good for me!"
"As long as I wait until Dad comes here, I can cooperate with Dad and really try to conquer these people!"
Sumo himself knew that he could be so respected and loved by the refugees.
It can bring a sense of security, but without really getting involved, maintaining this level and relying on commanding Chen Shen can maintain the current situation.
As for truly winning back the hearts and minds of the people, it is too troublesome and tiring for Soma now.
There is no need for that!
After touching the Oreo dog's head lying next to him and sitting in front of the gate, Somo seemed to have transformed into a "patron saint".
Just sitting here can give all the refugees who migrate here a complete sense of security.
But the days in the wasteland are endless as long as you get busy.
With the end of the horizon, Moore, who was driving a Tihu, returned, and the task of collecting all the grain into the warehouse officially began.
Bags of fragrant wheat were unloaded from the car and carried by the refugees in the storage space. They were placed in the warehouse according to the plan.
Crystal white cabbages, thick red gourds, and bags of soybeans that have not yet been dried are spread out in front of the shelter.
With the breeze blowing, this little fragrance comes up after scratching it!
As the boss of the base, Sumo naturally did not interfere in these trivial matters. He only occasionally gave instructions on the positioning and lazily rocked the recliner.
In the eyes of the refugees, Sumo's appearance made him more "strong".
But what they didn't know was that at this time, Sumo's mind had already sunk into the game panel, and he was quickly checking the material prices that were changing rapidly.
Four o'clock in the afternoon is the time when people are most sleepy and anxious.
The price of materials on the market has also dropped to a critical value. If it goes up, the market will not be able to take such a large share, and it will all be lost.
The next step down is the bottomless abyss, falling until no one cares.
So a delicate balance has been formed. Those who are selling are not in a hurry, and those who are buying have stopped. Everyone is waiting for the next market change.
With just a little push, the market may go up or down.
For example, at this time, if Somo starts to receive goods quickly, it will become "good news" in the trading market.
Most people who are still selling at low prices will immediately cancel their orders, wanting to see what Somo will do next.
If the purchase continues, then everyone will raise the price, and the dealers will be like sharks smelling blood, pounce on them, and buy the materials of these ordinary refugees.
Later, as long as Somo still needs these materials, he will become Daozu's fish and meat, at the mercy of these bookmakers.
Of course, if the dealers make a wrong judgment, Somo does not need to continue collecting.
If Su Shen doesn't accept it, wouldn't this material become waste in his hands? When the first small dealer starts to be unable to withstand the pressure and sell, it will quickly bring down the entire trading market like an avalanche.
This kind of behavior of using news to control the market is the most powerful method used by capital predators in the financial trading market on the planet.
And now, what Sumo wants to do is to use this piece of news from another angle to force these unscrupulous bookmakers to liquidate their positions quickly!
After greeting the refugees, he placed some wheat that had not yet been confiscated beside him, opened the market panel at will, and sorted the iron prices from high to low.
In the current market, the highest price is that 1 unit of wheat can replace 1.5 units of iron.
The lowest is the multiple of 1.2. If the multiple can exceed 1, some small dealers will inevitably panic and start selling in large quantities, which will bring bad luck to the big dealers.
Therefore, on the acquisition page, as long as you see a price that exceeds 1, several big bookmakers will quickly buy in, ensuring that the market will not fall quickly due to sporadic retail investors taking a desperate dive.
This is the last stubbornness of the big banker, and it is also the best moment for Sumo to attack.
"The price is controlled very stably. There is no one to supervise it. The leeks in this wasteland seem to be harvested very happily."
"It seems that the seed market didn't produce enough for you last time, and it just started to falter again!"
"Let me teach you the rules of the wasteland!"
He glanced coldly at the "familiar" names at the forefront of the trading market, as well as the arrogant words of acquisition.
With a sneer, Sumo took action decisively and directly bought the top ten most expensive iron bars.
Wow, nearly a hundred units of iron quickly appeared in front of the underground shelter door, and then disappeared, along with a hundred and fifty units of wheat.
The top ten orders were taken, which is naturally big news to the people who are anxiously watching the market prices.
Even on the World Channel, some people started talking about it.
"Damn it, someone is buying iron at a high price. Isn't it the banker who is causing trouble again? Why don't these Shabi bankers die!"
"That is, after purchasing so many iron nuggets, can you eat or drink them?"
"Originally, one unit of iron bar is exchanged for one unit of grain, which is the price everyone agrees on. But in the end, these bankers would rather cause trouble, bastard!"
"I'm still waiting for the price to come down to buy ships, don't let it go up!"
"The price is so low, why don't you buy it? What are you waiting for? If you want to pick it up, go to hell to pick it up!"
"I've received a lot of iron nuggets. The ratio is 3 units. If you want to sell it, go hang it up!"
"Fuck unit three, what's going on???"
"The top ten iron blocks in the market were bought by Sumo, and they were bought by Sumo in large sums!"
"Damn it, Su Shen is going to purchase materials???"
When the first news broke, Sumo, who was sitting in front of the underground shelter, seemed to have set off an invisible price storm in the market.
Hundreds of thousands of 1.2-ratio iron bars were canceled in an instant, and even 1.5-ratio bars were disappearing quickly.
In less than a minute, the interface of the iron block turned out to be empty, and even the interfaces of other basic materials began to become empty.
It was as if Somo was really going on a shopping spree, sweeping away all material markets.
However, the good times did not last long, and after another minute or two of brewing, material prices began to appear sparsely in the market again.
Ordinary refugees who were still waiting to dive for acquisitions were shocked to find out
Iron nugget actually has to be increased to 3 units of wheat to replace 1 unit of iron nugget!
Copper blocks have skyrocketed from the original 1.8 to 5 units!
Retail investors who were still reluctant to sell were also shocked to find that in the first few minutes, they could only sell iron bars at a ratio of 1 unit. Now, if the price is 2.5 or 2.8, they will be quickly eaten by the dealer.
Why is it the Chinese New Year again?
Looking at the large amount of food and supplies appearing on the ground, the iron block in my hand that I thought I was going to smash quickly disappeared before I looked at myself.
In this vast wasteland, all the refugees who dug out materials with sweat looked shocked.
However, after turning on the World Channel and watching it for a while, everyone was as they were during the disaster, with their slightly stooped bodies lowered.
Under the witness of this sky, any ordinary refugee who sold materials at a high price knelt down in piety!
