Chapter 555 259. Disaster is worried about you, and it brings you its favorite misfortune

Two-thirds of the way through the auction, the person in charge of the auction noticed something was wrong.

“Is the frequency of premiums too high today?”

"Yes, especially after the mid-term, the number of premiums increased significantly. It would be okay if it was once or twice, but it is really strange that so many people want to buy the planet at any cost."

"Don't think there's anything wrong."

Concerned, they quickly approached the Planetary Resources Agency and informed the responsible officials.

“Premium frequency increasing?”

The official of the Crystal Tower thought for a moment and shook his head:

"What does it have to do with us? It's a good thing to collect more ammonium gold."

The person in charge of the auction was quite worried: "But after all, the people participating in the auction are either rich or noble. If they are made unhappy, will they be angry with us..."

"Can they still blame our Planetary Resources Agency?" The official said dismissively: "These workshops usually make a lot of money, but now in this difficult time for civilization, they have to sell state-owned resources, so they can spend more money to help It is their obligation for us to get through this difficult time. How many people want to buy a planet are not qualified!"

"That's it!" The auctioneer suddenly realized.

From the perspective of the Planetary Resources Agency, this operation itself is to expand foreign exchange, drain the workshop of foreign exchange, and prevent them from escaping.

Planets are the same as real estate. They are both typical bundled assets. Once purchased, they require long-term operation and maintenance. Once a planet is purchased, it is like a house slave who paid a down payment and needs to continuously repay monthly payments. So civilization is the least worried about their escape.

On the contrary, due to the difficulty of early development, most of the workshop owners who purchased planets will rely more on civilization. At most, when they become rich in the future, they will have the idea of ​​​​setting up their own business. Even if they fall behind, they will not be able to do it. It will take a long time, but the ammonium gold collected will at least be enough to withstand the current difficult days.

Li Ozi also grasped this point.

"Your method of operation is not clever at all."

Nikita pouted:

"No. 016, 190, and 122 are going to be auctioned, so you will increase the price significantly. If you continue like this, aren't you afraid that they will surround you later and buy the White Candle Star?"

"Of course I'm not afraid. The prerequisite for bidding is that you have sufficient reserves. Otherwise, it will be regarded as illegal behavior and fraud."

Li Ozi crossed his fingers and said hehe:

"Although I have been acting as a trustee, I don't just raise the price casually - only if Nikita you confirm that the planet is valuable, I will continue to increase the price, and the number of price increases is not fixed. Every operation can make the other party At least the premium is 30% of the actual value - if you do this a few times, the other party will probably not have enough funds."

"But in this case, everyone knows that buyer No. 077, that is, you are disrupting order." Nikita was a little worried: "Not everyone is short of money. There are always some who have more ammonium reserves on hand. If it comes At that time, they concentrated on encircling you..."

"Will not."

Li Ozi clicked on the catalog and looked at the planets that had been sold one by one, with purple-red nebulae slowly spinning in his eyes.

"Soon, they'll be busy dealing with the more pressing issues at hand."

Nikita was puzzled, but seeing how Li Ozi looked confident of winning, it was hard to say anything.

Li Ozi also had no intention of revealing his trump card.

[Sequence seventy-seven·Disaster]

After five years of cooling down, [Disaster] returned to Li Ozi's control. This arcane power has the ability to interfere with fate and amplify disasters. It has never failed to live up to Li Ozi's expectations.

The most crucial point.

[Disaster] is the one with the longest range and range of effects among the arcane powers in his hand.

The range description of [Disaster] is any object within the visual range, which is worth pondering: What exactly does the visual range include?

Intuitively look up at the stars, download a picture from the Internet, video chat with someone remotely, and see the microscopic world and particle surfaces...

These things, regardless of the difference in resolution, are actually within the 'visible range'.

It's just that [Disaster] is not a very precise arcana. For intuitive and rough targets, [Disaster] takes effect very quickly, but for more subtle individuals, [Disaster] is difficult to capture, and it needs to be activated slowly. Accumulate slowly.

The person Li Ozi used was not the person with a specific room number.

Simply put, he cursed the entire auction site, himself included. All have suffered misfortune equally.

This time, we are not in the same embarrassing situation as when we first faced the waning moon. The complete waning moon itself is the [Dominator] path, with high [charm] and strong resistance to arcane energy. It took Li Ozi several tubes of blue. Article, the scourge continuously accumulates the power of disaster, and only survives to be killed.

What's more, his purpose this time is not to kill, but to cause a small burst of blood among the internal academics and workshop owners of the Crystal Tower - this is just a sign of their abandonment of the three billion ordinary people on the White Candle Star, and He hindered Li Ozi's normal auction and took revenge no matter how trivial.

Disasters do not directly affect wealth.

In fact, Li Ozi himself has only figured out a little bit about this arcana.

The process of inflicting disaster is to continuously accumulate disasters until they completely explode.

The definition of disaster is relatively broad, and can even be said to be abstract. No one can give a final definition in one breath.

To put it mildly, drinking water to stuff your teeth, being late in a traffic jam, being checked by your boss, having a girlfriend who has always been lukewarm, a strange woman who suddenly decides to check your phone on a whim... this can be considered a disaster.

At a more serious level, the national examination papers were stolen, you were killed by a meteorite on the way to school, and you were preparing for the wedding ceremony, but the bride suddenly transformed into a fire-breathing monster, which made you suffocate.

When communicating with Nastisa, Li Ozi discovered this:

The function of disaster is to continuously inflict disaster.

For example, for the first time, it may make you allergic to pollen, but you put on a mask in time and stay away from the flowers. Then, it may arrange for a bicycle to hit you, but you are agile and can avoid it by turning around. Then Congratulations, the next disaster may be to arrange for a dump truck to come over.

If it doesn't kill you at once, then scale it up until it kills you completely.

When we first dealt with Cangyue, the disaster was just like this.

At first, Disaster tried many times, such as causing Zangetsu's equipment to be delayed, his body to malfunction, and his mind to be confused, but due to his strength, he could not kill the opponent no matter how many disasters he accumulated.

Then, the scourge changed tactics: it planned to attract Balcomon directly, but perhaps because as a Kappa (10th) level strongman, Balcomon was a bit too strong, and a strong destiny would always return to the right track.

So the disaster began to take a back seat, causing many small disasters, which attracted the attention of the strong men in other fortresses at that time.

However, perhaps it was still limited by the fact that Li Ozi's own "charm" was not enough to support someone who was too powerful, so it took a step back and finally screened through layers of layers and got Dean Nastisa.

Dean Nastisa of Eta level (7) is absolutely qualified whether it is beating up Zangetsu or clearing out the support of the Night Butterfly Federation, but even so, Zangetsu's hard power is still too strong, and Nastisa is Unable to kill Cangyue with his own hands, a series of subsequent problems occurred.
