Eddison Confederation New York

Lawrence Livermore stood atop the Statue of Liberty, and his assistant Winston came to him through the aether.

Winston had a glass of ice American in his hand, and he handed it to Livermore, who took the ice American and took a sip, then looked at the rising sun and said to Winston:

"[Equivalent exchange], this is an undoubted transcendent iron rule, which can make the weak strong, the decay into immortal, and at the same time, it is also the most basic law of exchange in finance. Winston, when I was a kid running errands on the streets of New York, I was very interested in the constantly changing data on the trading board, 5 hours a day from Monday to Friday, 2 hours a day on Saturday, and all I thought about was: the numbers are constantly changing! ”

"Why has it changed? And, why can't people in the stock market run away? Why do they lose money? Is it because of the impetus of money, because of the synergy brought about by the overall action of people? Maybe.

Outsiders always wonder why people in the stock market don't pay attention to why?

If they have been immersed here for a long time, they will understand that stocks are ahead of macro, and chips are ahead of policies. ”

"To make the leap from high roller to professional trader, you need to understand one thing: the market is always right.

The market evolves along the path of least resistance, and this is the trend; The general trend of the overall market determines the trend of stock evolution, and the real profit comes from the general market trend, rather than the short-term fluctuations of individual stocks. ”

As always, Winston hunched over and silently stayed by Livermore's side, who looked down at the financial street below.

Before dawn, a large number of investors were already gathering around the exchange in the narrow streets of New York Manhattan.

They looked nervous, and their eyes revealed uneasiness about the future.

Addison's stock market has been falling in a row for the past few days, causing people to fall into extreme panic and anxiety.

Finally, the doors of the exchange slowly opened, bringing a new day of trading. Investors are eagerly flocking to the trading floor, hoping to keep up with the latest market conditions and seek possible ways out.

However, what they saw made everyone gasp.

"Whoever buys a stock in the middle of 1590 and keeps it in his possession will have to wait for most of his life to fade away before he can recoup what he has lost."

Livermore looked at the desperate crowd and sneered:

"The 'Roaring Twenties' that belonged to Addisi and belonged to Colombia are over.

In the past, the essence of the Roaring Twenties could be described as a certain incongruous combination of Terra modernism and an iconoclastic spirit. In the meantime, modern thaumaturgical theory and modern science seem to be able to make everything possible, the potential for economic and technological development seems to be infinitely enormous, and everyone is in a new and very different era.

New technologies, especially the pedigree, ether engines, automobiles, movies, and radio, have brought "modernity" to a large part of the population. The principle of pragmatism makes it possible to remove all unnecessary redundant decorations, both in the field of architecture and in everyday life. ”

"Look at what a magnificent bubble [the Financial Street] has created, and look at our dear Addison people – speculation is so hot that thousands of people are pouring money into stocks and [extraordinary assets], and many of them are buying more stocks with leverage.

Today, stockbrokers lend more than two-thirds of the market value to small investors on a daily basis, and the total amount of loans in the market exceeds 850,000 trillion dollars, which is more than the total amount of money and [extraordinary assets] in circulation today. The rise in stock prices attracted more people to invest in stocks, and at the same time, investors expected that the stock prices would continue to rise, further pushing up the stock prices under speculative trading, and then forming this magnificent economic bubble. ”

"You see, everyone has seen the upheaval in Heaven, which means that the sustainers of the bubble have retracted their hands."

"Now, the bubble is bursting!"

Livermore looked at the sky and opened his arms.

"The Great Depression is coming!"

"[Financial Street] is going to have a devastating blow, but this is not a disaster, but an opportunity, an opportunity for Colombia to take another step, we will break free from the shackles of heaven, and we will be greeted by a freer market!"

The financial streets of Manhattan.

All stock exchanges were in turmoil, with investors dumping their shares, causing stock prices to fall sharply.

The upheaval of the kingdom of heaven, the starry war of [Crystal Heaven].

They sparked the Great Panic of the Addison Transcendentals, which led to a massive run on the Transcendents.

The curtain is the foundation of order, and because of the existence of the veil, many transcendent beings are willing to interact with the [Financial Street] with their own might, and this interaction forms a variety of chains.

And now, the kingdom of heaven has weakened, and the first end of the chain has begun to reclaim its assets, and then the whole chain has begun to crumble.

[Financial Street] gathers a large number of [extraordinary assets], and at the same time, it also issues a large number of [assets] to others.

And now the fundamental problem is that [the financial street] can't get so many [extraordinary assets] out, [extraordinary assets] are not the current currency, not the currency that you want to print, and even if it is the current currency that you want to print, you have to consider the inflation problem.

Earlier, [the subprime mortgage crisis] was already the beginning of a bubble bursting, and now the problem of excess has caused the bubble to fully inflate.

In the final analysis, the drastic changes in the kingdom of heaven, the starry sky war is just the trigger, and the most important root cause is - the promoter of the four monarchs and the red king.

Yes, [Financial Street] even dares to do their business.

Now, they want the [Financial Street] to spit out the money with interest.

At this moment, the twelve [Addison Federal Reserve Banks] began to restrain the collapse of the market, and the circuit breaker mechanism was triggered in various countries.

In Addison's financial phase space, the twelve giants begin to mend the seams in the hub of New York, so as to prevent the impact of [Financial Street] from spreading to the real world.

The bubble burst, and the federal government of Addison felt that it could still top it now.

However, some things happen in a hurry.

Livermore looked at the pocket watch in his hand and said with a smile:

"Now, the Oretin Empire is estimated to have completed the centralization of power, and the Daevite Empire should also suppress the revolution; The news of the alliance between the two countries and the launch of an all-out war should have reached here, and at the same time, the news of Addisi's downfall in the [mobile city] of Oletin is estimated to have arrived..."

Boom Boom –

In the sky above New York, the Heavenly Kingdom's space-based anchor, which was originally used to maintain the veil, was directly squeezed by the huge etheric tide.

The gears of fate began to turn.

The projection of [Financial Street] appeared directly in the field of vision of the people of Addison nationwide, and immediately after, a terrible change occurred.

An irresistible force suddenly descended on New York, like a raging storm, sweeping through the city.

Lightning streaked across the night sky, and with an earth-shattering roar, a huge crack fell from the sky and tore through the New York skyline.

The skyscrapers of Manhattan trembled, and the tall buildings roared in the wind, as if they were struggling, trying to resist the impending catastrophe.

The Empire State Building, once an unattainable symbol, is as fragile as glass in this moment. Cracks spread from the top to the bottom of the building, and the towering giant was easily torn apart like a toy under the raging storm. The glass curtain wall of the high-rise building shattered, like thousands of diamonds shining in the dark night, and then fell, like a lifeless meteor shower, falling into the abyss with broken memories.

The skyscrapers of the financial street also crumbled in the face of irresistible forces.

High-rise buildings tremble in the storm, skyscrapers collapse one after another, and smoke fills the air, as if the end is coming. A long history is buried at this moment, and countless efforts and toils are annihilated in the torrent of destruction.

The Statue of Liberty, once a symbol of freedom and hope, is not immune. The torch she held aloft swayed in the wind, and she was about to leave. The goddess of liberty seemed so vulnerable in the storm, as if the freedom and hope of the world were crumbling.

The streets instantly turned into chaotic battlefields.

Streets were littered with ruins and rubble, screams resounded through the sky, people fled in terror from the crumbling skyscrapers, buildings were torn apart like toy building blocks, crumbling downwards like a tidal wave, and the city was on the verge of despair and destruction.

The sky was shrouded in dark clouds, and lightning cracked like the wrath of the gods surging through the city.

Heavy rain poured down, drowning out all hope and plunging people into endless darkness.

And at this moment, a towering giant appeared, which was more than five hundred meters high.

The giant's face carries a mask, which is made of metal and has a curved shape that completely covers Loki's head, including his forehead, eyes, and chin. There are many intricate patterns and ornaments on the mask, depicting strange symbols and geometric shapes, giving it a mysterious and absurd feeling.

Behind the giant there is an elegant black aura, and inside the aura, a small aura of crimson, a crimson and an olive green is overlapped.

[Loki] stands in the collapsed New York, and then, he gives all the New York citizens a [transcendent insurance], he never makes loss-making transactions, this money is not only insurance for the citizens of New York, but also for himself, he binds himself to the lives of many citizens.

"The New York will be the trading hub of the worlds, it will break away from this world and become the connection point between the other world and the human world!"

Loki stretched out his hands, and a small sapling appeared in his hand.

The moment this little sapling appeared, it began to thrive, and the four auras behind [Loki] also began to light up.

Inside the giants, Livermore holds aloft the miracle creation of the Addison Federation, the [Staff of Hermes]!

【Staff of Hermes: Forced Trade!】 】

"Great Miracle: Equivalent Exchange!"

On the distant island of San Migue, the World Tree, which was fighting fiercely with Jörmungad, suddenly withered, and then began to shrink gradually, while on the other side, the sapling mentioned by [Loki] grew taller and taller.

The sapling took root in the shattered earth of New York and then grew.

After founding the Mayflower Foundation, Lawrence Livermore, under the guidance of the Red King, found two World Trees, and at the same time, it reached a non-aligned partnership with the think tank of [Financial Street].

Yes, the tree is plundering everything in the world tree of the island of San Miguel, it is devouring each other.

Thundered!!!

Soon, the World Tree in the New York region had surpassed the height of [Loki], nine world nodes, and that were nine fruits.

As a matured World Tree, it skipped all the links, and even the only god who protected it could not be transferred here because of the presence of Jörmungad.

Loki stretched out his hand and plucked nine fruits, devouring nine worlds.

As the fruit was devoured, its body began to swell, and a huge force penetrated through the seven levels of the ether, and it slammed [miracle] at this moment.

On the other side, as the nine fruits were devoured, the ripening World Tree in New York stopped growing and began to crumble directly, while Livermore, who hit the [Miracle], directly inserted the [Staff of Hermes] into the World Tree, and as the staff was inserted.

[Financial Street Think Tank Hermes] is loaded directly into the inside of the World Tree, and then, devouring everything about it, it grows wildly.

The think tank of [Financial Street] directly burned countless [assets] to complete the growth of the world, and with its actions, the projection of [Financial Street] in various countries began to collapse.

The terrifying aetheric tides began to crash and tear apart the barriers of the present world, and many people in the present world could see the distorted changes in the sky.

At first, a faint glow spread across the starry sky, as if an illusory picture was unfolding.

Then, the sky began to tremble, forming strange ripples and ripples.

The starry sky began to appear, their silhouettes distorted, their light becoming unstable, as if trembling at the edge of the world.

[The collapse of [Financial Street] is detected, the forced salvation is triggered, and the [Toning Volume] begins to be released——]

Suddenly, a dazzling light flickered, and the entire distorted starry sky was completely torn apart.

Subsequently, everything returned to normal.

In the New York area, the "World Tree" at this time has exceeded a kilometer, no, it should not be called the World Tree now, it should be called the living god - [Hermes].

The city that was once called New York was completely destroyed in just one day, and was replaced by the connection between the Atlas and Terra, the [New World City].

Along with the new world, there is also a unique beast, who came out of the earth, stood on the land of the new world, and shouted to the sky:

"Roar—"

And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, having two horns like a lamb, and speaking like a dragon.

When the New World was completely born, Livermore, who had ascended to [Miracle], stood on the body of [Hermes] and looked up at the sky.

There, the roaring Jörmungadr tore through the space and rushed towards this direction, a single space-based weapon representing the Heavenly Sword-Bearer aimed here, and countless angels were projected from orbit.

On the other side, twelve [financial behemoths] tore through the aether and came to the [New World City], where they stood guard by [Hermes] and looked at the forces of Heaven.

"The war between the Oretin Empire and the Daevite Empire has involved the main forces of the Heavenly Kingdom and the first sword-wielding man..."

Livermore looked at the sky and smiled.

He knew that it would be Addisia's negotiation with Heaven, not war.

[Crimson King], you really played a big game of chess.

[Crisis Sequence: Financial Street]

==Access requires [Upper 3-Wise Angel Cherubim] permission==

Number: 0-01 (number 0-01 is a special number, there are multiple identical numbers, the number is never fixed)

Command Class: Red (This level of anomaly is generally associated with an apocalyptic threat (to humans) or a similar type of crisis, and is usually uncontainable. )

Task Type: Administration.

Responsible: Eden, [Supreme Procedure], Resolution Assembly.

The following is a description of "Financial Street":

[In fact, it is not as simple as an extraordinary aggregate, its foundation is to exist on the basis of the future of people in reality, and when [extraordinary assets] are insufficient, it will overdraw the "future" of mankind.

The Financial Street cannot be destroyed because it was born from the collective human race, and it is our creation, the embodiment of the thirst and greed of the human soul, and the Financial Beast is one of the manifestations of this distortion.

Go in and out of [the financial street], pledge your future, get your first asset, and then have to trade every week.

The impact of the financial street is as follows:

1. After the transaction is completed, the increase or decrease of assets will be reflected in the living individual. When assets are zeroed, they will go bankrupt, and people in this world will be desperate and eventually die, because there is no future to speak of (unstoppable, irresistible to "death"). It will devour the concept of existence step by step and completely).

Two: The scope of the impact is not only for individuals. Once a person is completely wiped out by the financial street, it will lead to [cognitive crisis] and [logical paradox], both of which will breed a large number of myogenic viruses that destroy human consciousness.

Three: When the degree of collapse is large enough, it will affect humanity as a whole and even Terra as a whole. The shock wave generated by the collapse of the financial street will have a strong impact on other financial streets that are still in operation, causing losses and affecting the real world situation, and the closer you are, the greater the impact.

Fourth, there are periodic economic crises, accumulation crises, environmental distortion crises, social crises, cognitive crises, and logical crises... 】

Addendum 01:

Caribbean Republics: With the collapse of the regional financial streets, the fictional "Caribbean Republics" that existed in the Caribbean Sea, which at the time were then land, also disappeared{related information+}.

Oaxaca 24: With the collapse of the regional financial street, the 24 countries have been swallowed up to only 16 countries remaining{related info expand+}.

Addendum 02:

Addison Federation - [Future Redemption].

As the birthplace of the financial street, Addison has the right of redemption in the future, so they dare to develop the financial street unscrupulously. Those of Addisi's losers were given the "One More Round" game{info expand+}.

Addendum 03:

The financial beast that brings about the Honkai: When the two horns are like a lamb and speak like a dragon, it will look to the worlds and it will devour everything.

[Special Countermeasures]:

The current approach to Financial Street is to control it by any means necessary, and to that end, Eden has stockpiled a large amount of [Tome of Atonement] while negotiating with Addison to obtain [Future Redemption].

When there is a large-scale collapse of the [Financial Street], the Kingdom of Heaven will redeem the future of mankind.

Special Responses: [95 Thesis] / [Debt Collection Scheme]

Once the [Toning Book] is promulgated and enters the market, it is bound to be hoarded in large quantities.

Beings who hold the [Toning Tomath] will be granted the right of pardon to circumvent the control of the Veil, and the [Ninety-Five Theses] are a transcendent code of periodic restrictions, which cannot cure the root problem.

When the Financial Street is stabilized, the Kingdom of Heaven must forcibly requisition all [Toners], no matter what means are used!

[Do you give up the future and save the present, or sacrifice the present and choose to have a future with no possibilities?] 】

It is estimated that the day after tomorrow will be able to completely turn the page, and it is about to enter the next volume.
