Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 219: The situation is open, and the showdown flow must go all the way

After some introduction, Star finally made "Sun" Derrick understand the effect of this extraordinary item jointly created by him and "Bai Zao".

It does have the effect of turning decay into something magical - it transforms the influence left over from the ancient sun god - the authority of shadow, darkness, corruption, filth, mutation, etc., allowing the monsters bred by darkness to be transformed from inedible to edible.

Even though Derrick of the City of Silver didn't know that this was due to the common origin of the two, he knew from the remaining legends that the Creator had once shone as the "sun" on the "God-forsaken Land" and possessed the authority of purification, holiness, and light.

It would be more feasible to create such an extraordinary item to expel the toxins and curses from monsters.

Of course, the core of it still uses the method of "tampering" to amplify the various magical effects. Otherwise, if it is really "created in vain", it would be a bit difficult for him, a mere clone among clones, to deal with it.

"Then there won't be any negative effects?"

If this extraordinary, dreamlike item had only positive effects, wouldn't it seem unreasonable?

So, a supplementary question arises.

"Yes, but it's not a 'negative' effect." Star replied, "This extraordinary item will amplify the hunger, making the 'transformer' feel that monsters of the same origin are very tempting, and they will want to fight with them to get their delicious taste."

"But that's nothing. Due to the core extraordinary characteristics and some of the power stored in it, the user will have great strength, agility and speed, as well as super self-healing ability."

"From this perspective, if you capture a monster and are able to restrain it, you can consider using up some of the 'durability' of this belt at once."

"Make it a permanent... um, Amazon... maybe do some farming..."

Considering that classmate "Sun" may not have been exposed to it, he doesn't know what breeding means.

Star paused here and briefly introduced Derrick to a creature called "Meat Ganoderma" and "Black Tai Sui" in the flower-growing family legend:
When there is something to do, cut some meat; when there is nothing to do, keep the Amazon's breeding ecosystem in captivity.

As for reproduction, the authority that comes from shadows, darkness, corruption, filth, and mutation will naturally make the monsters bitten by this Amazon be "assimilated" into the same Amazon.

This won't make them lose their fighting power, but at least they can be eaten, right?
Being able to eat, the foodie attribute common to people in the other world can naturally stimulate their fighting power and attack them.

It just takes a little more effort to preserve the food.

Hearing this, the "Sun" classmate and the "Hanged Man" next to him were stunned:

Derrick: This extraordinary item can be developed in so many ways? This is a miracle, right?
"The Hanged Man" Alger and others: Monster breeding? Mr. Wheel of Fortune actually came up with such an idea. It is really like what Emperor Roselle said, "The higher the talent, the greater the courage"...

That's right. He could think of the truth about the "fate curse" that Mr. "Sun" bore from the "black-faced grass" and the "God-forsaken Land". Maybe he had already known the effect of the powerful seal of the Silver City from the "Creator". Maybe he already had a countermeasure.

In short, after hearing these introductions, "Sun"'s eyes showed a kind of enthusiasm that seemed to be real.

But he was a little confused:

"But, Mr. Wheel of Fortune, what price should I pay to get these things from you..."

If Derrick had the financial resources of Miss Justice, he would have been considering buying it right now. In any case, he would order a few first.

"I have a great idea."

In order to ensure that he has the possibility to lend out the "Gift of the Earth", the foundation of the Silver City that deserves the name of "God-level Sealed Object" that has fallen into his hands.

Legally, he was a favored person of the "Silver City Creator", and the "Gift of the Earth" seal was given to Silver City by the "Silver City Creator". It didn't seem unreasonable to ask for the privilege of borrowing this seal for a while.

As a favor, he would bring Silver City some other reliable sources of food to support it, so that the "Gift of the Earth" seal would not be taken too seriously. Otherwise, Silver City's own food production would not be guaranteed, so how could it hand over the "Gift of the Earth" to others?

Therefore, to the surprise of everyone in the Tarot Club, Star looked at Xiao Ke, bowed and said:

“Mr. Fool, what I am going to say next may be a bit presumptuous, so I would like to ask for your permission. Please forgive me.”

Klein was a little confused: What does Star want to do?
However, he was already prepared to cooperate well. After all, Sta had already told him to act according to circumstances in this Tarot Club.

He said in a nonchalant tone:
"It doesn't matter. He has already greeted me."

Him?
The god-like being behind Star?

At this moment, everyone in the Tarot Club undoubtedly understood a lot, and seemed to understand why Star was late. Mr. Fool did not pursue it too much.

Even the diaries of Emperor Roselle were handed over to Mr. Fool by Mr. Wheel of Fortune through the hands of these Tarot Club members because the so-called “Creator” made friends with Mr. Fool?

Everyone looked at Star, with their minds full of thoughts...

Regardless, Star silently praised these words in his heart, and thought that he must say a few good words for Klein in front of Bai Zao later.

Then he continued calmly:

"My suggestion is that you can explain this matter directly to the highest leader of your Silver City."

“You can open up a whole new channel here.”

That's right. If the new food acquisition channel is to be accepted by Silver City, the hurdles of Silver City's six-member council and Silver City's chairman must be overcome.

Even if Star later sent them more acceptable "mushrooms", they still needed to know the origins of these things that Derrick handled.

If that's the case, why not talk about it right from the start?

The butterfly effect can be seen from the experience of Tingen City tearing up the script:
Star didn't care about this at all - he had been clear with Xiao Ke from the beginning...

If he was really worried about not having enough strength, he already had many people to rely on, and he himself was at a cheat level, at least in terms of support (recovery). Even if he didn't have the soft power of "nuclear deterrence", he could directly crush the regrets left by the original development of the fate.

In fact, if Star hadn't suspected that it was a certain "writer" who had insisted on keeping Ins for some reason.

Star had long wanted to open the "box" of Ins the moment he contacted the people (Miss Messenger, Mr. Azik).

How could this lousy screenwriter live to see the moment when the "Tingen City Incident" occurred?
When it comes to Derrick, Star has no intention of letting fate follow its original development. In fact, the "Forsaken Land of God" is his home ground:
Most of Bai Zao's "strengths" can only be used there...

Therefore, when it comes to the "Gift of the Earth", a "divine seal" or "divine artifact", even the price of "women's clothing" is acceptable to Star. How could he let such a few difficulties hinder him from achieving his goal?

Now that we have decided to go for a showdown, let’s go all the way!
Even without talking about the ultimate benefits that Star would reap, it would be better to reach a direct cooperative relationship with Silver City than with Derrick as an "individual".

As for the City of Silver, they were able to directly gain a channel to contact the outside world that was doubly guaranteed by the gods - jointly certified by "Mr. Fool" and "Silver City Creator", and even including Star himself, an existence whose identity was unknown, these three high-ranking beings used their personalities as a credibility guarantee.

For the members of the Tarot Club, they can directly benefit from the huge material trading market that can be operated by Silver City in a place like the "God-forsaken Land" that is full of extraordinary resources. It can be said that there are business opportunities everywhere, and even if they become a "dealer" and sacrifice practical materials from the steam age, they can share some of the profits.

For Derrick himself, even if he was an important intermediary, he was equivalent to a stable recommendation for the top management of Silver City - he didn't have to play the "who is the undercover" game with Lovia as in the past - anyway, they had become Sta's subordinates in a sense, and they were all flesh and blood, so they didn't fight each other.

So, when Star said this, people with quick minds, such as the Hanged Man, had already realized the various needs behind such an extraordinary force living in a place full of despair, and the huge profits that could be generated.

Suddenly, the "Hanged Man" had the idea of ​​becoming a "trader" -

This was indeed the new era he had imagined before, with people from different regions uniting to complement each other's needs. How big would the gap that would be created be?

As a captain and "navigator" who had been adventuring on the sea for many years, Alger knew that in the northern and southern continents, it was precisely because the supply in some places could not meet the demand, and the unbalanced supply and demand relationship gave rise to various industrial transactions.

Well, now, after Mr. Wheel of Fortune's suggestion, he couldn't imagine how huge the profit space would be stimulated by such an extraordinary force living in a desperate situation under the extreme supply and demand relationship!
He himself had been working on the sea for many years and had come across many cases in this regard. With an active mind, he soon thought of various feasible trading plans.

Even selling the common and inexpensive lighting items here as commodities in the God-forsaken land that is shrouded in darkness all year round can still bring considerable profit margins!

This... this is simply unimaginable...

Alger, the Hanged Man, was so surprised that he looked at Star.
How did he come up with this idea?
After all, in the extraordinary world, hiding oneself is the norm, and all kinds of disguises give people a feeling of "Dark Forest - Hide yourself and clean up."

In the end, even a false "sincerity" is valuable.

And this kind of thinking, this kind of confidence...

Alger suddenly felt that he and Mr. Wheel of Fortune were from two different worlds and that he had no way of understanding his thoughts.

This sudden brightening situation was just like... just like what Emperor Roselle had said:
"The pattern opens"...

He perfectly embodies this term...

Alger muttered to himself.

And Klein, a genuine history major who had received modern education, would not have known what Star meant.

"Triangular trade"!
He thought of this famous term, the three-sided model of "Silver City - Tarot Club - Reality", which quickly reminded him of this historical event.

Unlike this infamous historical event, thanks to a series of preparations made by Star, the participation and share of the cake that the Tarot Club members can get are all manifestations of "good deeds bring good results."

"Creation of the universe"... Klein didn't know why this phrase suddenly popped into his mind.

Yes, this pattern has appeared in some of the novels Klein has read, and there are even stories of the style of "cooperating with the higher-ups to develop another world."

It’s just that in this world where Extraordinary people exist but are suppressed by the Church, Extraordinary people have long been accustomed to hiding.

Klein, a modern man from a flower-growing country, was so cowardly that he did not even think of the possibility of letting the "Sun" "show its cards".

However, this is probably because Star has some kind of guarantee himself... If it were Mr. Fool, who is just an "empty shell", then it would be hard to say - he still doesn't know if he can pull someone under the nose of a high-sequence person.

Of course, after thinking about it, Klein thought about how the style of the Tarot Club would be distorted if there were more people in the future.

This side is selling "gas lamps" and that side is selling food?

The scene was so beautiful that Klein didn't dare to think too much.

But even if Silver City is in the process of survival, its purchasing power in areas other than survival will not be very strong. Such a market here is a delicious "cake".

At the very least, the people's livelihood in Silver City is in trouble, but the purchasing power in the extraordinary field is huge.

But the reality here is just the opposite. Even though the industrial level in the Victorian era was just starting, the materials for daily use here were unimaginably beautiful to the people of Silver City who were still in the "God-forsaken Land" and unable to leave.

Because of this, at the very least, the members of the Tarot Club will not have to worry about common extraordinary materials in the future?
Klein suddenly felt as if he had been blessed with great wealth and was about to become rich—

Not to mention the distant future, just talking about the present, he doesn’t seem to have to worry about Mr. Fool not being able to participate in this “bilateral transaction” “from reality and from the City of Silver”.

Not to mention the cooperation with Star, as a "logistics center" connecting the two places, it is not easy for him to just "bring people who are so far apart together". If he wants to go through the "God-forsaken Land", it will cost a lot to get the commission, and then naturally there will be a steady stream of money flowing into his pocket.

Of course, this reason still needs to be considered. After all, if people find that the area where Silver City is located is actually somewhat connected to the outside world, it would be a bit unseemly for a fool like him to charge a separate fee for a project that benefits the people of Silver City.

It can’t be possible that the “God-forsaken Land” is really completely isolated inside, right?
I really want to open a secondary account... Klein thought spontaneously.

……

As a "mind reader", Audrey saw the reactions of the crowd and even saw the "sun", and she suddenly realized something. Having received education since childhood and having excellent political literacy under the influence of her family, she naturally understood the great significance behind Star's idea.

Regardless of whether it was from the perspective of rescuing the distressed residents of Silver City, or allowing the Tarot Club to participate and take advantage of the situation to get a piece of the pie.

Even several members of the Tarot Club were unknowingly led into the game by the interests pointed out by Sta. While "working" for Sta's purpose of assisting Silver City, they also had to thank Sta.

This kind of behavior of taking into account the interests of all parties and coordinating the forces of all parties makes him worthy of being the person who triggered the "Tingen City Change"?
He is like a real angel...

Audrey looked at Star, her eyes revealing an emotion that even she couldn't explain.
