Chapter 110: Sir, Please Stay!
Three days later.
Reykjavik Old Port.
Located next to downtown Reykjavík, the Old Port is a historic area.
In the past, it was the main stopping point for merchant ships and fishing boats; Today, it is mainly used for tourism and entertainment, such as whale watching and fishing tours.
Today, the old port welcomed a new alien, all of whom disembarked from the ship in groups of three or five, and the non-human species were required to be injected with [Virtual Illusion Midoshin], a special type of mimusin that is as common on the otherworldly side of Terra as the masks worn by humans.
A dose of [Virtual Illusion Mimusu] is capable of creating a virtual human image for a twenty-four hour period in front of an ordinary person.
Of course, the appearance of the image is in line with the injector's appearance score in the ethnic group - that is, the ugly is still ugly, and the handsome is still handsome.
All the human visitors who disembarked had changed into Reykjavik's usual outdoor attire.
Reykjavik is located in the northern part of the Western Ocean, and the climate is changeable, so the locals dress in a practical style.
"Phew~, this is Reykjavik."
Zhou Zhou, dressed in standard outdoor clothes, looked around like a curious baby, followed by Xia Xiu and Tours, who were also wearing outdoor clothes.
All three of them wore a waterproof jacket suitable for wind protection and warmth, and the color was mainly dark, which could not only resist the changing weather from time to time, but also conform to the aesthetics of the central area; On the legs, he wears a pair of hard-wearing wool trousers, which are the most insulating; The shoes are a pair of non-slip hiking shoes designed for rough terrain.
They each wore a rugged woolen scarf around their necks, which was a traditional handicraft woven with a geometric pattern unique to Reykjavik, showing a deep ethnic tradition; The gloves are also made of wool, which is thick and warm.
On their heads, a regional-style knitted hat protects him from the cold winds, the color of the hat echoes the scarf, which is based on the earthy tones of the region, and on top of his head he wears special sunglasses, which are designed to resist the strong sunlight and snow reflections of Reykjavík.
This outfit was specially purchased by Xia Xiu when he arrived in Reykjavik, and of course, he also paid for the money.
"Don't look around like a hillbilly."
Turce, who looked like a child on the side, wrinkled his nose slightly, and looked around with disgust.
"You, a little guy who needs to be accompanied by a parent to travel, are not qualified to talk about me." Zhou Zhou turned back and said calmly to Tours.
"Heh-" Turce smiled disdainfully, he wasn't tall and much better than you guy with a often formatted 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.
Nestled on the edge of the Chaos Sea and Ocean, this city is like a shining pearl, with a different kind of beauty and silence.
On a sunny afternoon, the city exudes an alluring atmosphere of rich history, rich culture, and unique natural beauty.
On both sides of the street, a patchwork of houses stands there, brightly colored and with strong Nordic characteristics; Their walls are of different colors, red, blue, yellow, and white, like tiny blocks of color embedded in the city's green vegetation background; Their roofs are flat, like drawing boards to support the sky, and the antennas on them are like random lines scribbling on the drawing boards, highlighting a kind of geometric beauty.
At the heart of the city is a towering building known as Hall Grimms Church, with its spire reaching into the sky and being seen from almost any angle.
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 of you is the entrance to the Hub [Smoke-Free City].
There, Xia Xiu saw three bankers with special signs: the National Bank of Reykjavík, the Commercial Bank, and the Savings Bank.
The staff of all three banks did not shy away from walking outside the church with briefcases bearing their bank logos.
He naturally understood that this was deliberately done by the three banks, which had a risk control function in Reykjavik, and the staff of the three banks appeared outside the [smoke-free city] at the same time, and there was no evasion at all, which was obviously the intention of the regional government to convey information to the outside and convey the latest information inside the [smoke-free city].
Reykjavík, a small country, operates with an extraordinary system, and 78% of thaumaturgists rely on the [Financial Street], and now the flow of extraordinary resources within the [Financial Street] in all of Terra is in a sluggish state, which is very uncomfortable for local thaumaturgists who are overly dependent on foreign thaumaturgical resources.
Therefore, the revitalization of the local economy is a top priority for Reykjavík.
These bank personnel who come and go are estimated to be the [risk control agency] to conduct [risk assessment], and they estimate that they have reached a special cooperation with [secret alliance].
This is a manifestation of disalignment.
The situation between the hub and the regional government is very special, although the hub is embedded in the territory of each country, but the hub lives inside the strange ethnic groups and forces, which leads to the emergence of a special phenomenon of a country within a country, coupled with the agreement between the kingdom of heaven and the regional government and the two systems signed with them, which makes this phenomenon of a country within a country more and more obvious.
Landlocked countries have strong and extraordinary armed forces, so their domestic hubs are similar to subject countries, and for coastal countries, these hubs are not as simple as subject countries, and in some coastal countries, hubs can even reach out and influence regional governments.
"Hey, you two don't make any more trouble, we have to buy tickets to enter [No Smoke City], it just so happens that the people from the three major banks are also there, let's just go over there and buy a pass." Xia Xiu turned his head and said to Zhou Zhou and Turce on the side.
"Sometimes I admire Reykjavik, you have to charge for tickets to enter the hub, or they do business." Tours also turned his attention to the staff who came and went in the church.
"This kind of thing itself is also compliant and legal, and there are no fees in inland areas."
Xia Xiu just said simply, and then he motioned for the two to follow him, and he led the two of them towards a phone booth in front of him, where a middle-aged man with glasses, a suit, and hair oil was on the phone.
The phone booth is a special golden color, the material looks particularly gold, and the most important thing is the special ripples that emanate from the perimeter of the phone booth.
"[Art Installation, Cross-Hub Phone] ······"
Xia Xiu lowered his head and muttered a few words, and then he spread the [Presence Weakening] Mimu on his body on the surface of Zhou and Tules' bodies.
The two of them naturally felt the fluctuations of Mi Mu Su, and they did not resist, but let Mi Mu Su render the surroundings of their bodies.
Soon, the three of them quietly came to the side of the phone booth.
The blonde young man leaned against the phone booth with his hands on his chest and began to listen to the conversation openly, while Zhou Zhou and Tours subconsciously glanced at each other.
This guy is so skilled, I guess he does this kind of sneaky thing.
Both of them read each other's meanings from each other's eyes, but don't say it, this contradictory feeling of openness and quietness is really not bad to experience.
So, the two of them also began to naturally approach the phone booth and listen to the conversation inside.
"Manager, it's been confirmed that the game will start as usual."
"Yes, yes, the Colosseum's gambling will also open as usual in the second quarter, and many dwarves have already signed an agreement with [Financial Street] to replace their strength and equipment and register [financial cards]; At the same time, they have also broken out a lot of [extraordinary securities], well, we have discussed with them, and now there are only three banks in their hands; I know, I know, these dwarves' [extraordinary securities] are all unstable, high-risk and high-risk controlled items, so the purchase price has been suppressed, and these dwarves who are addicted to gambling don't think too much about it. ”
As the compliance officer of the National Bank, Lewis was proudly reporting to the risk management manager of COSCO in another hub in China, and the opening of the [secret alliance] as usual this time has attracted the attention of many non-human races, and those non-human races who are about to go wrong are a large number of leeks for the [risk control agency].
Although the probability of the coupons that burst out of these leeks is very high, it does not prevent the bank from acquiring them.
There is a huge difference between the operation of the [Financial Street] in the transcendent world and the stock market in the current world, because the transcendent world allows a single person to become a market, that is, one person represents a company.
The operation of [Financial Street] is very strange, and it is basically not an ecology from the current financial system.
Even if there is a forced equivalence peg in the Western Dollar, it is difficult for the financial operation of the current world to affect the [Financial Street], which is essentially a huge distorted machine running in the [Aetheric Ocean], which is a unique [Financial Genealogy] framework belonging to the Addison Federation, a huge anomaly that twists the EVE particle and the seven levels into financial operation.
"Well, okay, I'll hang up first if it's okay, you go and get busy with yours." Lewis laughed and hung up the phone.
When he hung up, Lewis smiled and pushed open the door of the pavilion and walked out, and just as he had barely taken two steps, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Sir, please stay."
A warm, warm voice came from behind him, and Lewis was startled by the sudden sound.
When!?
A hint of fear flashed through Lewis's mind, and at the same time, a yellow [Financial Card] with the logo of the National Bank popped up on his black cuffs, and he had already connected to [Financial Street] at this time, and the [Position] of the card in his hand had lit up.
[Position] is the location where the [Extraordinary Securities] are stored inside the financial card, and the five series of [Financial Cards] issued by [Financial Street] are for the five genealogy books, and the [Position] is similar to the [Spell Position] in the ancient law, except that the [Position] is more expensive to play than the [Spell Position].
The [Extraordinary Securities] uploaded by the Transcendent will be [classified] by the [Financial Street], which means that the [Extraordinary Securities] are equivalent to the thaumaturgists' thaumaturgy, and the [Position] is a special device that contains and drives the [Extraordinary Securities].
Lewis looked at the three people who suddenly appeared with a cold sweat on his face, and the palm of his hand holding the [financial card] was already covered with fine sweat at this time, after all, he was just an office worker, and he had no experience in fighting at all.
Just when Lewis was nervous, a blonde young man led by the three stood up, and the other party raised his hands and smiled kindly at him and said:
"Sir, calm down. Destroy the [position], I see that you have three [positions] on the card in your hand, and you can be a bank manager by one [position], if you accidentally clear the position now and cause the [position] to collapse, it will be more than worth the loss. ”
Of course, Lewis couldn't easily trust the other party, and just as he was about to yell at the three of them, he saw two phantoms floating behind the curly-haired man and the little fart behind the blonde youth.
Juggernaut Incarnate······
You're so early!
"You're right!" Lewis quickly put away his [financial card], and then said to the three of them with a flattering face.
"It's not a big deal, we first came to Guibaodi, and we planned to go to [smoke-free city] to see the Colosseum event, and we happened to see someone from [the risk control agency] calling here, so we wanted to ask you for three passes. This thing can only be opened by your three major banks, and you happen to be here, isn't this a coincidence, saving us from going to the bank to run business. ”
Xia Xiu said to Lewis, who had a slightly fake smile in front of him, and at the same time, he took Zhou Zhou and Tours to slowly approach Lewis, who twitched slightly in the corner of his eye.
On such a cold day, I met three bandits, don't be so close to me.
Lewis felt that he was unlucky today, and opening three passes was equivalent to using his [financial card] credit to register the three masters, and if the three of them committed an accident in it, he would be directly hung on the [dishonest list] for a limit, and maybe he wouldn't even be able to make up the position in the future.
Lewis began to try to struggle.
"If [the juggernaut] goes directly to the institution, he can enjoy the fast track and get it quickly..."
"No, you can just open it for us, what's the matter, we can still blow up the [smoke-free city]?"
The blonde youth interrupted Lewis's excuse, and then gestured to himself and the other two, an expression of how we could be bad people.
"Aha, the three of them are good people at first glance, how can they be, how can they be, I will issue certificates to the three of them."
Lewis smiled and took out the [financial card], then used his personal account to make purchases, issued certificates for the three people, and three passes appeared in his hands out of thin air.
Xia Xiu and the three of them took the pass handed over by Lewis one by one, and when Turce took the pass handed over by Lewis, he also said a word to him.
"You kid makes a lot of money."
"What?"
Turce didn't say much to Lewis, and after getting his pass, he walked with Xia Xiu towards the entrance of the church [smoke-free city].
When the backs of the three disappeared from his sight, Lewis, who felt that he was extremely bad today, lowered his head and sighed, and then he summoned the [financial card] to look at the names and information of the three registered people, and suddenly found that the [financial card] in his hand suddenly appeared three [positions].
Lewis rubbed his eyes in disbelief and repeatedly confirmed.
"Why, the opening of [positions] will only be opened if the transaction share that satisfies the [Financial Street], even if all three people are [dominators], how can such a small thing as opening a certificate be ·······?"
As he spoke, he also looked at the issuance information column.
On the information bar, there is a mess of black and garbled characters.
"How is it possible, how can it be that the [Financial Street] can't be entered, even the [Crowner] and [Mythical Creature] can't escape its information entry!?"
···········
National Bank of Reykjavík.
[Dididi——]
[High-risk events are detected, and crisis response strategies are automatically adopted——]
In the command room of the risk control center of the National Bank, all the display screens suddenly flew red, and then a large number of [Chaofan Securities] were sold by [Financial Street], and the bank's CEO and Chief Risk Management Officer were green at this time.
MD, why!
