Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month

The next second.

Chen Ye immediately concluded a contractual relationship with the "Insomnia Rescue Center" in front of him.

Bloody text popped up in front of me——

[Real estate scope +20 square meters]

[Personal asset value +20W! 】

At this moment, after trading this real estate, Chen Ye's personal assets changed from "41 gold coins, 116 silver coins, 1,022,650 copper coins" to "41 gold coins, 116 silver coins, 822,650 copper coins".

But at the same time, the total real estate area increased from the original "70 square meters" to "90 square meters."

Together with this month's asset value, it also increased from 580,000 to 780,000.

At this moment, Chen Ye's list had already reached tenth place.

Suddenly, a series of discussions took place on the public screen——

[Holy shit, look, Mr. Chen Ye’s points have already reached the tenth place! 】

[It feels like we can watch the list battle again this month! 】

【Stimulate! 】

[I wonder what surprises Mr. Chen Ye can bring this time! 】

[I feel like Master Hua is in danger...]

[Last month, Hua Shao opened a plug-in and almost won the first place on the list, but this time he had to deal with Ayaka Kamisato, and it felt like it was not so easy to compete for role models. 】

[Why do I feel that Hua Shao is showing off? I haven’t seen that guy Shui Gongping or the forum these days. He used to like to show off like this, but now he doesn’t talk anymore? 】

[You call it a mess if you call it second place on the list? 】

[Perhaps Mr. Hua also knows that competing for the rankings in advance will reveal his trump card, so he has learned to keep a low profile this month. 】

[He is mature and I cry to death! 】

[Alas, maybe people can only learn to grow and become mature when they are hurt. 】

On the public screen, the discussions among the players were in full swing.

Even Hua Shao, who was pushed out of the first place on the list some time ago and lost his popularity, has been promoted again.

…………

On the top floor of the business building, Mr. Hua in a suit glanced at the public screen with a disdainful expression.

"Hmm, so what about this month's role model?"

"I hold so much real estate. If I sell all the real estate in an instant, how should you respond?"

"Some players have discovered that real estate will also be counted as part of personal assets."

"As long as you buy it, you can rush to the list."

"etc……"

"Why is my real estate area so small? Is it an illusion?"

Hua Shao rubbed his eyes. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that his real estate had changed from "288,820 square meters" to "288,800 square meters." He wondered if he was dazzled.

Can jointly owned real estate be reduced?

He frowned slightly, made a phone call, and called Ah Fu over.

Not long after, Ah Fu, wearing a butler's costume, came to Mr. Hua vigorously and resolutely.

"Master, what happened?"

Mr. Hua said in a deep voice: "I just saw the real estate panel, and it seems that part of it has been reduced. What's the problem?"

The housekeeper thought for a while and said:

"Master, there have been ghost puppet incidents frequently in the pedestrian street recently. There may be some supernatural beings. If you activate the characteristics, they will snatch the real estate from you..."

"To be honest..."

"It's very possible that this has been happening, but Master, you rarely open the panel recently, so you haven't noticed these changes."

Mr. Hua's face immediately turned ugly.

Ever since Chen Ye overtook his ranking last month, he has been ridiculed everywhere on public screens and forums.

My mentality is broken!

From then on, Hua Shao developed a phobia of public screens and no longer dared to open public screens, not even looking at his personal panel.

In the past few days, he has been consistently ranked second on the list, and he has control of 280,000 square meters of real estate. In addition, he discovered that players can increase their personal asset value by exchanging copper coins for real estate...

Then if you sell the real estate yourself and assist the player to reach the rankings, you can still get an increase in personal asset value!

Moreover, real estate is real estate, and if it is exchanged with players, the other party will not lose money.

It can be sold at any time.

Lessons learned from last time...

Hua Shao understands that he still has to use his trump cards last, not allowing other players to easily control them, so that he can force out their potential and allow himself to formulate a strategy plan to overtake them.

After overcoming his fear, he logged onto his personal panel again and suddenly found that his assets were inexplicably missing by twenty square meters?

Of course he is not happy!

This is the trump card that will allow you to turn around and become the master in the future. How can you say less is less?

So, he quickly contacted Ah Fu and came over for questioning.

Ah Fu has also been busy signing lease contracts with players in the pedestrian street recently. He knows the place quite well, and he is not like Hua Shao who suffers from the "bloody mobile phone phobia". He continues to maintain a high level of surfing. For the latest news, he is still More understanding.

After listening carefully to the story about "Puppet Strange Tales", Mr. Hua frowned and became thoughtful.

After a moment, he waved and smiled and said:

"It's just a small thing!"

"Since it's related to the Puppet Ghost Story, let's go to the Burning Sun Church to cooperate, and then purchase a batch of gunpowder from the underground world."

"Use holy silver to pour gunpowder and turn it into a bomb that can bombard evil spirits. Let these monsters experience the baptism and salvation of fire!"

Ah Fu nodded and agreed immediately.

Suddenly, Mr. Hua seemed to remember something and said:

"Have there been any strange people or strange things happening in the pedestrian street recently?"

Ah Fu was stunned for a moment and said in confusion:

"Master, what are the strange people and strange things on the pedestrian street?"

Hua Shao explained impatiently:

"That's it... are there any talented people in Pedestrian Street who have done something more influential recently? I can consider recruiting them to form my personal team. If I encounter any dungeons in the future, I can establish a good relationship and hire them. Coming down is a way to accumulate strength among the player community."

Ah Fu suddenly realized that the young master's intention was to use resources to expand the player's network.

It's also... the treacherous veins and connections are all useful.

As expected of the young master!

After the last defeat, I have indeed become more mature and steady.

Ah Fu thought for a while, listed some representative information in his mind, and took stock in turn:

"There used to be a cafe in the pedestrian street. The dancers there were very attractive, and many customers were fascinated. Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, the cafe suddenly turned into a huge hemochromatoma tissue one day. It was abnormal. Disgusting, many tenants nearby are afraid of the risks caused by giant sarcoma, and have expressed their desire to quit the lease."

"Currently, the catering industry has the largest traffic volume in the pedestrian street. Most of those [chefs] are first-level players or players with only related characteristics. The food they make... can only be said to be barely edible. It is not obvious yet. What a strange thing."

"However... there are rumors recently that a restaurant called Honesty Restaurant has been repeatedly smelling of charming fragrance, but the owner has stopped accepting customers for the time being, saying that he has a big order and is too busy."

"According to my personal judgment, that order is likely to come from the aboriginal people. As for the aboriginal family in the pedestrian street, I have also sent the record officer in the company to investigate and record it."

"However, it seems that because the salary is not very high, the recording officer is a bit lazy and passive, and the progress is very slow."

Mr. Hua frowned uncontrollably, but his focus was mainly on topics related to "Integrity Restaurant"...

As for the recording officer... Well, I have money anyway. With the current employment environment, if an employee doesn't want to work, there will be many employees rushing to do it... If the recording officer is passive at work, then resign and replace him with someone else.

The flesh and blood tissue on the pedestrian street... seems like a weird story at the moment, but there are a lot of weird stories in this world. In Hua Shao's eyes, this ugly sarcoma is not as high-end, mysterious, and possessive as a puppet. With incredible power and the ability to snatch real estate from his own hands, it is naturally not worth paying attention to.

I don't know why, but when I heard "Integrity Restaurant", Hua Shao subconsciously paid attention to it. Even his usually frivolous expression became a little more cautious at this time for some unknown reason.

"There may be some strange people in this honest restaurant. If they can be recruited by me, maybe they can find help to solve the puppet problem?"

Thinking of this, Mr. Hua looked at the housekeeper Ah Fu and said in a deep voice:

"I've been paying attention to this 'Integrity Restaurant' recently. If they can do a good job, pay close attention to the players and build a good relationship."

"clear."

Ah Fu nodded immediately.

…………

At the Insomnia Treatment Center, after Chen Ye concluded the contract, the shop in front of him suddenly sprouted tentacles.

Seeing this scene, Shen Meng couldn't help but feel his scalp numb. He felt that this thing was so disgusting.

"etc……"

"Is this what you tied me up with last time?"

"It seems to have certain characteristics that can actually make real estate look like this. It seems quite scary..."

Wang Jing had an expression of admiration, and his inner thoughts could be summarized as "Is this the top guy on the list?", "The top guy on the list is so scary", "Even his personality is so different"...

[Big real estate owner: (3/77)]

At this moment, Chen Ye glanced at the stage progress on the panel and smiled slightly.

The most difficult task to complete is [Real Estate Major], but the progress can be regarded as catching up!

Now there are signs of a breakthrough...

However, it currently requires a large amount of funds!

The area of ​​a piece of real estate requires at least 200,000 copper coins. With my current assets, if I can't complete a few tasks, I will have no money...

I didn’t expect that the task of unlocking [Big Real Estate Owner] would cost so much money!

Chen Ye originally thought that he had a million copper coins in savings, which was enough to solve most problems, but he didn't expect that just to complete a phase of the task, this little money could only be regarded as a drop in the bucket at best.

Make money! Make money! Make money!

You still have to make money!

Let’s set a small goal of 100 million first…

At this moment, Miss Puppet looked at Chen Ye with a worried and eager tone:

"Now we have to find the source of the puppet's strange talk, cut it off, and stop it?"

"If we ignore it, more and more tenants will be put in danger..."

Chen Ye originally wanted to say, does the safety of these tenants have anything to do with you? Players should consider their own interests first, right? It doesn’t matter whether others die or not, as long as you don’t die yourself...

However, when he raised his head and took a closer look with his talent of [Study in Scarlet Letters], he suddenly discovered that in addition to [Puppet Master], Miss Puppet also had a new profession - [Sister of the Burning Sun].

Uh, okay, now that you have become a [nun], you will indeed naturally have a sense of compassion. This kind of compassion cannot be completely regarded as empathy, but it is also part of professional performance.

Moreover, this strange story still uses puppets made by Miss Puppet herself. Although she knows that the killing method has nothing to do with her, as a puppeteer in the [Art Department], her puppets are like children. What parent can turn a blind eye? Watching your child become a murderer controlled by others?

However, Miss Puppet also knows that she is very strong, so she repays her hope...

But the puppet ghost story can’t be solved so quickly! You have to at least help yourself clear the [Real Estate Tycoon] stage mission, and then die gloriously, right?

He thought for a while, carefully considered his words, and tried to explain in a tactful yet rational way:

"Right now, there is still a lack of information on the Puppet Ghost Story..."

"Of course, I can understand your thoughts. After all, it would be uncomfortable for anyone to see their beloved puppet turned into a murder tool."

"But our current real enemy is not just this weird story. Von Lucius behind it may be more terrifying than imagined..."

Chen Ye paused, and then related his experiences in the underground world, saw the memory of the ghost ship three hundred years ago, saw Fon Lucius at that time, and saw the [black countdown] that was very similar to before the bloody countdown came. Day], and narrated and explained the guesses based on the [Spirit Realm] sequence that he had unlocked.

Of course, during the whole process, Chen Ye did not reveal his specific identity, skipped the relevant information of the 'Dragon God' and the 'Gate', and focused on the elaboration of memory and his own understanding, mainly to explain Feng Lu clearly. Hughes is very powerful, and the existence behind him is probably beyond imagination and related to the legendary "divine authority"...

Understanding the seriousness of the matter, Miss Puppet's face gradually changed from worried to solemn.

If it is just a simple ghost story incident, then, out of a certain degree of role-playing needs... or in other words... the player himself will also be affected by the corresponding identity role to a certain extent "self-awareness", so he will choose to have abnormal concerns and worries. , if it is not solved within a minute, it will be like having countless ants crawling on you.

But Chen Ye emphasized that behind this strange talk, it is likely to be related to some behind-the-scenes masterminds who are currently difficult to fight against...

Miss Puppet naturally knew that she was not to blame for this matter, so she would feel better if she blamed herself in her heart.

She nodded and expressed her understanding:

"Okay, I understand."

Then, she thought for a while and asked:

"Can I tell Miss Chen Xi the information you mentioned when I go back?"

After all, it is incredible that the [Black Sun] can have an impact on the "Lord of the Fierce Sun"!

But when this sentence came out of the mouth of Chen Ye, who was ranked first on the list, it was so valuable that even if it was a fantasy, it could make people believe it.
