Chun couldn’t believe it, could this really work?! As expected of the Ten Lords, their connections are much stronger than mine. Giving up 50% could revitalize... no, that’s not right!
I’m not recognized by the system as the City Lord, the Black Flag Order has never worked on dead people, I can’t control Evil Spirit Island at all.
But still, it’s good this way, they won’t trace it back to me. As an old buddy once said, public sentiment is the biggest politics. Even if the system doesn’t recognize it, as long as they do, it’s fine...
...
Ten Lords Chat Group.
As the evil spirit lawyer issued multiple golden documents for signing, there was applause in the chat group. Of course, this document was just a contract securing 50% shares in the bank. The distribution between the two princes Shariel Raphael Mermaid would need to be renegotiated among the five of them.
Meanwhile, considering the possibility of the Crown Prince, Third Prince, and Fifth Prince joining, the internal division is not properly discussed yet. First things first, installing the banking machines.
The next step is to connect to the Hell Bank.
This point is actually quite tricky.
Raphael thought for a moment: "Currently, the only Hell City we can directly access is Shadow Stream City, right? But it seems the only players who can connect with Shadow Stream City are Alpha and that person from the Divine Presence Corps?"
Sariel replied irritably: "Absolutely do not let Curry get involved! Anything Curry is involved in is doomed to fail! Not to mention something as confidential as this. I even suspect that Turtle Island was an alteration by Alpha behind the scenes."
Sela said: "Let’s not rush. Anyway, the Commerce Guardian God of my association also wants to investigate the Shadow Bank. Besides, the Black Dragon Lord is right next to me; she must have a way and is interested in opening a business in the surface world, right?"
Michael said: "What Sela said makes sense. The current primary task is to stabilize the cooperation between Evil Spirit Island and the prince through the bank. Profits from the bank are not important."
Sariel remembered something: "In theory, the Sea of Creation can also connect to Hell, probably the 4th layer of Hell? Anyway, the Old Turtle can move, we could consider exploring Hell, that’s the original goal of building the ship!"
Metatron sighed: "For this goal, I even got a smuggling charge. Now with the Old Turtle, there’s no need for shipbuilding."
Michael: "Right, after dealing with these troublesome events, we might consider making some moves."
In the midst of the discussion, Sela suddenly received a notification — Broken Bottle Commerce Association notification: The Commerce Guardian God wants to contact you.
Sela smiled: "Look, she must be here to ask me."
Contact!
Sela asked: "What’s the matter, Guardian God?"
Guardian God: "Does the Elder know how to set up a bank account in Hell?"
Just as expected! Sela immediately asked: "Are you in urgent need of money?"
Guardian God: "Just interested, it feels embarrassing not to have a Hell account as an Evil God."
Sela asked: "Boss, if I say I don’t know, I’d feel embarrassed too. Should I hint a bit about Turtle Island?"
Michael considered: "Sure, it might trigger an event. But since it’s not done yet, don’t give too many details."
"Understood."
Sela replied: "Currently, I’ve heard there’s a secret sea-based Evil Spirit force that might have this capability."
Guardian God was surprised: "Sea-based Evil Spirits? Ordinary people wouldn’t even be able to use their money there, right?"
Sela said mysteriously: "But supposedly, that force is an island carried by a giant Turtle God, capable of crossing secret spaces and can move to the seas near major cities."
Guardian God was taken aback: "Island on a Turtle God?"
Sela said: "Yep, I can only wait for further news on that."
Guardian God was silent for a moment: "You mean, you can get information about this island?"
Sela suddenly realized the conversation seemed off, as they could only gather info from a player level, not from a game level.
"Actually, it’s not certain whether the information is true or not."
Guardian God: "Understood, if you get any news, contact me."
"Rest assured, sir."
Ending the conversation, Sela felt perplexed: "I have a feeling this conversation was a bit off, did I trigger an event?"
Gabriel said: "The tone sounded quite shocked, and there was a few seconds of silence, it should have been triggered, right?"
Sela got excited: "Really looking forward to the business proceeding, what would it be like for Uriel to transfer money to her."
Gabriel laughed: "That’s not the point at all, aren’t we suspecting Iron Flame Village of possibly having this kind of Shadow Bank?"
Sariel laughed: "We must eliminate it! We cannot leave competitors for our Evil Spirit Island’s Shadow Bank."
Sela became impatient: "Ugh, when will this animal protection event be over, our Commerce people, the Feng Xingcuo, have already swept through the sewers with five pets, is progress this slow..."
Sariel was suddenly startled: "Hey, hey, another Holy Spirit Architect has appeared, there’s tremendous potential on the island..."
...
Evil Spirit Island Bank.
The long-time unseen foreman Piyande also appeared, directing renovation for the installation of two ATM machines.
As Chun was filled with emotion, the Magic Mirror in the inventory stirred.
Could it be a stroke of luck, with news of the Blood Crystal Bat?
Aileen: "Dear, Bilenna heard from Vivian, does our Evil Spirit Island have the function of a Hell Bank now?"
Chun was suddenly startled, Holy Shit! They’d barely initiated the plan! How did the NPCs hear about this?
It can only be the Ten Lords, Sela!
Chun immediately understood and quickly asked: "It’s only in the planning stage, how did the news reach you so fast?"
Aileen was puzzled: "It’s Dark Remia asking, she’s the Evil Spirit supplying Silver City’s Mithril Silver Mine to the island and knows there shouldn’t be a Hell Bank here. The only possibility is that there’s a traitor on the island?"
Holy Shit!! The Ten Lords just messing around, misled the NPCs to think there’s a traitor on the island!
Chun panicked: "There’s no traitor on the island, don’t overthink it, it’s probably the Elder."
Aileen said solemnly: "I always thought she wasn’t a Bitch, was I wrong, if she ever gets out, I’ll definitely cast her till she’s dizzy!"
Holy Shit!
Chun got anxious: "Don’t stir up trouble, the Commerce relies on the Elder, don’t alert her."
Let alone, I even gave her that big chunk of Divine Format from Ruins City, the cost was huge.
Aileen said: "We understand, don’t worry."
Chun was more anxious: "How can I not worry?"
Aileen laughed: "You can relax, also, my Power of the Mirror God is increasing, I’ll be contacting you faster in the future."
Hearing her cunning laugh, Chun couldn’t help but feel reassured: "Alright, dear..."
Ending the conversation, Chun felt tumultuous inside.
Then suddenly thought about how Sela’s battle in Ruins City probably earned her millions of Privilege Points, with this many points, plus the various means of the Ten Lords, it’s possible to dethrone me, the imprisoned president, and usurp my foundation, right?
And with Dark Remia as the Commerce Guardian God aware, she can contact Fafnir to prevent Sela from taking my base, right?
Thinking of this, Chun indeed felt relieved. Speaking of which, Remia knows about Turtle Island, Fafnir should know about it too, and considering how I tried to hide it from her for so long, it feels embarrassing...
...
At 9 PM.
The bank erupted in cheers, the renovation and relocation had been officially completed. To celebrate, the princes activated the cannon functions of three ships, the whole island’s Evil Spirits were enveloped in the festive atmosphere of the fireworks.
Chun was also immensely relieved, connecting to Hell wasn’t important anymore; what mattered was that there was now a real bank. When everyone’s not around, he would check if his mechanical body state could facilitate transfers from and to the bank.
Holy Shit, that’s a limited vision! With the bank, there are opportunities for all kinds of loans and financings; doesn’t that mean the territory’s development can take off?"
Wait a minute! Suddenly, Chun noticed a festival Buff above his head!
Holy Shit, they actually created a festival! But the festival effect was too weak, there was no attribute bonus, which is, well, having a festival is better than not having one, I guess.
