Chapter 262 Sir, please stay!
Three days later.
Reykjavik Old Port.
The Old Port is located next to the center of Reykjavik and is a historic area.
In the past, it was a major stopping point for merchant ships and fishing boats; now, it mainly serves tourism and entertainment, such as whale watching and fishing tours.
Today, the old port ushered in a new group of outsiders. These outsiders all got off the ship in groups. Among them, those of non-human race were required to be injected with [Virtual Image Memesin] before disembarking. This kind of Specially made mimetics are as common on the otherworldly side of Terra as masks worn by humans.
A dose of [Virtual Image Memesu] can create a virtual human image in front of ordinary people for 24 hours.
Of course, the appearance of the image is in line with the injection person’s appearance rating in the ethnic group - that is, whether the person should be ugly or handsome, whether he should be handsome or handsome.
All human tourists who disembarked have changed into common outdoor clothing in Reykjavik.
Located in the northern part of the Western Ocean, Reykjavik has a changeable climate, so the locals’ clothing style is mainly practical.
"Huh~, this is Reykjavik."
Wearing standard outdoor clothing, Zhou Zhou looked around like a curious baby, and behind him were Xia Xiuhe, who was also wearing outdoor clothing. Tours.
The three of them are all wearing a waterproof jacket suitable for windproof and warm. The color is mainly dark, which can withstand the changing weather and is in line with the aesthetics of the Youyang area; their legs are wearing a durable Wear wool trousers, which provide the best warmth; shoes are a pair of non-slip hiking shoes designed for rough terrain.
They each wear a rough woolen scarf around their necks. This is a traditional handicraft with Reykjavik's unique geometric patterns woven on it, showing a deep ethnic style; the gloves are also made of wool. , thick and warm.
On their heads, a knitted hat with a local style protects them from the cold wind. The color of the hat echoes the scarf, both of which are based on the earth tones of the region. Wearing special sunglasses on top of her head, these glasses are specially designed to withstand the strong sunlight and snow reflection in Reykjavik, and are very outdoor-style.
This outfit was specially bought by Xia Xiu for the two of them when they arrived in Reykjavik. Of course, he also paid for it.
“Don’t look around like a country bumpkin.”
Tulsi, who looked like a child, wrinkled his nose slightly and looked at Zhou Zhou who was looking around in disgust.
"You, a little kid who needs to be accompanied by your parents to travel, have no right to criticize me." Zhou Zhou turned around and said calmly to Turs.
"Haha——" Tours smiled disdainfully. Even though he is not tall, he is much better than you, a guy who often formats his brain.
Xia Xiu didn't pay much attention to the mutual sarcasm between Zhou Zhou and Tours. He stretched out his hand and pulled the scarf wrapped around his neck, while looking around at the city in front of him.
This city located on the western edge of the Sea of Chaos is like a bright pearl, possessing a different kind of beauty and silence.
On a sunny afternoon, this city exudes an extremely alluring atmosphere, which is intertwined with profound history, rich culture, and unique natural scenery.
On both sides of the street, scattered houses stand there, with bright colors and strong Nordic characteristics; their walls are of different colors, red, blue, yellow, and white, just like Small blocks of color are embedded in the city's green background; their roofs are flat, like drawing boards used to support the sky, and the antennas on them are like lines scribbled on the drawing board, highlighting a kind of Geometric beauty.
In the center of the city is a towering building called the Holgrim Church. Its spire reaches into the sky and you can see it from almost any corner.
The white stone structure and simple design seem to tell the world that this is a place where faith and art are intertwined.
The church in front is the entrance to the hub [Smoke-free City].
Xia Xiu saw three bank personnel with special signs there. They were Reykjavik National Bank, Commercial Bank and Savings Bank.
The staff of these three banks were not shy about walking outside the church holding briefcases with the logos of their banks.
He naturally understood that this was done deliberately by the three banks. These three banks have risk control functions in Reykjavik. The staff of the three banks appeared outside the [Smoke-free City] at the same time, and at a glance There are no taboos. It is obvious that the regional government intends to convey information to the outside world and convey the latest internal information of [Smoke-free City].
For the operation of the extraordinary system in the small country of Reykjavik, 78% of thaumaturges rely on the [Financial Street]. Now the flow of extraordinary resources within the [Financial Street] of the whole Terra is in a sluggish state, and this is for Local thaumaturges who rely too much on foreign thaumaturgical resources are very uncomfortable.
Therefore, revitalizing the local economy is a top priority for Reykjavik.
These bank personnel coming and going are probably the [Risk Control Agency] to conduct [Risk Assessment]. They estimate that they have reached a special cooperation with [Secret Alliance].
This is a manifestation of alliance without alliance.
The situation between the hub and the regional government is very special. Although the hub is embedded in the territory of each country, there are all kinds of strange ethnic groups and forces living inside the hub. This has led to the emergence of a special kind of national government. The phenomenon of a country within a country, coupled with the two-system agreement signed by the Kingdom of Heaven and the regional government with them, makes this phenomenon of a country within a country more and more obvious.
Because inland countries have powerful and extraordinary armed forces, their domestic hubs are similar to vassal states. But for countries in coastal areas, these hubs are not as simple as vassal states. In some coastal countries, Hubs can even reach out to influence regional governments.
"Hey, you two, stop making trouble. We have to buy a ticket to enter the [Smoke-free City]. People from the three major banks happen to be here, so we can just go there and buy a pass." Xia Xiu turned his head and said to Zhou Zhou and Turs.
“Sometimes I admire Reykjavik. They have to charge tickets to enter the hub, but they still do business.” Tours also turned his attention to the staff coming and going at the church. them.
“This kind of thing itself is legal and legal. There are also fees in inland areas.”
Xia Xiu simply said, and then he motioned for the two of them to follow him. , he led the two of them toward a phone booth in front. Inside the phone booth, a middle-aged man wearing glasses, a suit, and hair oil was talking on the phone.
The phone booth was made of a special golden color, and the material looked particularly like gold. The most important thing was that there were special ripples emanating from all sides of the phone booth.
“[Art Installation·Cross-hub Telephone]······”
Xia Xiu lowered his head and murmured a few words, and then he diffused the [weakened sense of presence] on his body Meme is rendered on the surface of the week and tulsi bodies.
The two people naturally felt the fluctuations of Memusu. They did not resist, but allowed Memusu to color the surroundings of their bodies.
Soon, the three of them came to the phone booth quietly.
The blond young man crossed his arms and leaned against the phone booth in a familiar manner and began to listen to the conversation openly. Zhou Zhou and Tours subconsciously looked at each other with their eyes.
This guy is so skilled, he probably does this kind of sneaky thing a lot.
Both of them understood each other's meanings from each other's eyes, but don't tell me, this contradictory feeling of being aboveboard and being quiet is not bad to experience.
So, the two of them naturally began to approach the phone booth and listened to the conversation inside. "Manager, it has been confirmed that the game will start as usual."
"Yes, yes, the gaming at the Colosseum will open as usual in the second quarter, and many dwarves have already signed agreements with [Financial Street], exchanged their power and equipment, and registered [financial cards]; At the same time, they have also revealed a lot of [Extraordinary Securities]. Well, we have already discussed with them. Now there are only three banks in their hands to acquire them; I know, I know, these dwarves’ [Extraordinary Securities] They are all unstable and belong to high-risk and high-risk controlled items, so the purchase price has been suppressed. These dwarfs who are addicted to gambling will not think too much. "
Lewis, who is the compliance officer of the National Bank, is. He proudly reported to the risk management manager of COSCO on the phone at another hub in the country. This time [Secret Alliance] opened as usual, but it attracted the attention of a lot of non-human beings. For [risk control agencies], it’s just a lot of leeks.
Although the probability of using these leeks' coupons to get out of control and backfire is very high, this does not hinder the bank's acquisition.
The operation of [Financial Street] in the extraordinary world is very different from the stock market in the real world, because the extraordinary world allows a single person to form the market, that is, one person represents one company.
The operation of [Financial Street] is very weird, and it is basically not the same ecosystem as the current financial system.
Even if there is a forced equivalence peg with the Western Yuan, it is difficult for the financial operations of this world to affect [Financial Street]. [Financial Street] is essentially a huge twisted machine operating in the [Ether Ocean]. It is unique to Edici. The Federation's [Financial Genealogy] framework, a huge anomaly that twists EVE particles and seven levels into financial operations.
"Well, okay, I'll hang up if there's nothing else. You can go do your work." Lewis smiled and hung up the phone in his hand.
After hanging up the phone, Lewis smiled and pushed open the door of the pavilion and walked out. Just when he had just taken two steps, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Sir, please stay."
A gentle and warm voice came from behind, and Lewis was frightened by the sudden voice.
when! ?
A flash of fear flashed through Lewis's mind, and at the same time, a yellow [financial card] with the National Bank logo popped up from his black cuffs. He was already connected to [Financial Street] at this time. At the same time, the [Position] of the card in his hand has lit up.
[Position] is the location where [Extraordinary Securities] are stored inside the financial card. The five series [Financial Card] issued by [Financial Street] correspond to five types of pedigree books, and [Position] is similar to the ancient method. The [Spell Slot] in the game is just that the [Spell Slot] costs more to play than the [Spell Slot].
The [Extraordinary Securities] uploaded by the Extraordinary will be [Category·Entry] by [Financial Street], that is to say, [Extraordinary Securities] is equivalent to the magician's thaumaturgy, while [Position] is It is a special device that contains and drives [Extraordinary Securities].
Lewis stared at the three people who suddenly appeared with cold sweat on his face. The palm of his hand holding the [financial card] was already covered with a slight amount of sweat. After all, he was just an office worker. Fighting was simply not possible. Just no experience.
Just when Lewis was extremely nervous, a blond young man headed by the three people stood up. The other person raised his hands with a kind smile and said to him:
"Sir, calm down. [ The position] has been wiped out. I see that the card in your hand has three [positions], and you are one [position] short of becoming a bank manager. If you accidentally clear the position now and cause the [position] to collapse, it will not be worth the gain."
Of course Lewis could not easily believe the other party. Just when he was about to scold the three of them loudly, he saw two shadows floating behind the curly man and the kid behind the blond young man.
The Incarnation of Dominance······
You came out so early!
"You're right!" Lewis quickly put away his [financial card], and then said to the three of them with a flattering look.
“It’s not a big deal. The three of us came to Guibao for the first time and planned to go to the [Smoke-free City] to watch the competition at the Colosseum. We happened to see someone from the [Risk Control Agency] making a phone call here, and we thought I want three passes from you. Only your three major banks can open this thing, and you happen to be here. It’s a coincidence that it saves us having to go to the bank to do business.”
Xia Xiu is right. He said to Lewis, who had a slightly fake smile in front of him. At the same time, he, Zhou Zhou and Tours slowly approached Lewis, whose eyes were slightly twitching.
In such a cold weather, I met three bandits, don't stay so close to me.
Lewis felt in his heart that he was extremely unlucky today. Opening three passes was equivalent to using his [financial card] credit to register these three men. If the three of them committed any crime inside, he would be responsible. It will be directly placed on the [Dishonest List] for quotas, and you may not even be able to cover your position in the future.
Lewis began to try to struggle.
“If [Master] goes directly to the institution to apply for it, he can enjoy the fast track and get it quickly...”
“No, you can open it directly for us. How? , can the three of us blow up the [Smoke-free City]?”
The blond young man interrupted Lewis’s excuse, and then pointed at himself and the other two people, asking how the three of us could be bad guys. expression.
"Ah hahaha, the three of them are good people at first glance. How could it be possible? How could it be possible? I will issue certificates to the three of them right away."
Lewis smiled reluctantly and took out his [debit card], then used his personal account to make purchases and issued certificates for the three people. Three passes appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Xia Xiu and the other three took the pass handed over by Lewis one by one. When Tours took the pass handed over by Lewis, he said something special to him.
“You kid makes a lot of money.”
“What?”
Tours didn’t say much to Lewis. After he got the pass, he followed Xia Xiu walked together towards the entrance of the church [Smoke-free City].
When the three people's backs disappeared from his sight, Lewis, who felt that he was extremely unlucky today, lowered his head and sighed. Then he summoned the [financial card] and planned to see the names and information of the three registered people. , he suddenly found that there were three [positions] in the [financial card] in his hand.
Lewis wiped his eyes in disbelief and confirmed again and again.
“Why, [position] can only be opened if a transaction share that satisfies [Financial Street] is made. Even if three people are [masters], how can such a small thing as issuing a certificate be possible· ·······"
While speaking, he also looked at the certificate issuance information column.
On the information bar, it was a mess of black and garbled codes.
"How is it possible, how is it possible that [Financial Street] cannot be entered, even [Crown] and [Mythical Creature] cannot escape the entry of its information!?"
········· ··
Reykjavik National Bank.
【DidiDi——】
【Detect high-risk events and automatically adopt crisis response strategies——】
In the command room of the National Bank's risk control center, all the display screens suddenly turned red, and then a large number of [Extraordinary Securities] were sold off in the [Financial Street]. The CEO and Chief Risk Control Officer of the bank turned green at this time.
MD, why!
