Although Hobert's control over the "Nation of Disorder" is still very limited, as long as it is a sealed item or magical item below the level of a demigod, his seal can basically greatly reduce the negative effects.
This pocket watch has certain living characteristics, so after being wrapped in the "Power of Order", it immediately showed obvious tremors.
After being ravaged by the "Power of Order", Hobert held the pocket watch in his hand again, and the negative effects were indeed greatly reduced:
"There will be no negative effects within two hours of wearing it. During this period, it will steal the spirituality of people around the wearer, including the spirituality of the wearer's opponents. After wearing it for more than two hours, it will begin to steal the wearer's vitality and luck, and there is a certain probability of stealing the vitality and luck of the wearer's opponents. Take it off for an hour, and then re-accumulate the wearing time."
Hobert nodded in satisfaction: That's more like it!
He put the pocket watch on the stone platform over there. He doesn't plan to wear it usually, and plans to use it as his trump card.
Hobert looked at the colorful Beyonder characteristics on the stone platform, as well as the sealed items and magical items, and suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment.
His current accumulation is already as much as a small Beyonder organization, and the title of evil god is gradually becoming a reality.
Just as Hobert was about to leave the "Nation of Disorder", he realized that the star representing Elliot suddenly lit up.
It seems that the matter of purchasing the water pump has been finalized.
Spreading his spirituality to the star belonging to Elliot, Hobert heard the other party's prayer: "...Great 'Creator', the patriarch hopes to purchase two new water pumps at once, and gave me a sealed item that seems to be of a high level, hoping that I can use it to complete the second bribe."
Hobert pondered for a while, he would accept Elliot's "bribe" without hesitation, and he could earn more from two water pumps, but he would have to wait until he became the "Baron of Corruption".
He's not far from that step, so he can agree first, but he still has to use the "alt account".
Hobert left the "Nation of Disorder", and then prayed to himself: "...Great 'Creator', please ask your devotee to prepare the gold, I will place the order now, the production cycle is about a week to ten days. After the water pump is assembled, we will trade."
Then Hobert entered the "Nation of Disorder" again, first using the image and tone of the "Creator" to reply to Elliot: "Okay!"
At the same time, he put mosaics on the picture of his prayer and threw it into Elliot's star.
Sitting on the "Iron Throne", Hobert thought that he had to set up a company, which was so troublesome.
At this time, he thought of the missing devotee: Upton.
Didn't this kid want to be a businessman? Give him a chance.
However, the "Creator" can't say this, alas, he has to use the "small account" again.
Hobert left the "Nation of Disorder" again somewhat helplessly, and prayed to himself: "...Great 'Creator', please help me contact Upton, I have something to entrust to him, the reward is part of the main material of the 'Briber'. Meet at 16 Wanbo Avenue at 10 pm two days later."
After the prayer, Hobert entered the "Nation of Disorder" again, and the protruding part of the "Iron Throne" was almost worn smooth because he went in and out.
After putting mosaics on his prayer just now, Hobert threw it into the star representing Upton.
At this time, the star representing Elliot lit up, it was Elliot's thanks, Hobert listened to it once, and in order to maintain the identity of the "Creator", he did not reply again.
The pool returned to its former calm, Hobert complained: My operation just now seems like a very large company, but the manager is myself, the employees are myself, and the huge company is supported by me alone.
He shook his head with a smile and left the "Nation of Disorder".
...
Loen Kingdom, Desi County, Conant City.
This is the most famous tourist city in the world, with beautiful beaches, pleasant sea breeze, cheap subtropical fruits and seafood.
There are unique hotels everywhere, restaurants with unique flavors, and bars with different decoration styles.
Of course, there is also a special product here: the gangs!
Because most of the shops here are service industries, the gangs have the space to collect protection fees.
They also have their own bars, their own industries, and the establishment of gangs is also to protect their own interests, because the efficiency of the local government is very poor, and many times it is impossible to solve their problems and realize their demands through formal channels.
Also, because these gangs have their own industries in the local area, they never extort tourists, they just make money from tourists, but sometimes they rip them off.
It is precisely because of their "professional ethics" that they have never damaged the image of this city, and the tourism industry here has always been very prosperous.
In the private room of the "Coast Bar", several gang members of the Coast Gang were sitting around their boss, praising the boss's power and celebrating the victory yesterday.
In a gang conflict yesterday, their boss Upton once again used his terrifying power to drive away more than a dozen members of the Black Fish Gang, once again defending the interests of the Coast Gang.
Now this most prosperous coastal street is basically their world.
The rise of the Coast Gang has been in the past month. Before that, they were unknown, just a small gang running a bar.
Just a month ago, a gang raided the "Coast Bar". Mr. Upton, who was traveling from Backlund, happened to pass by, drove away the raiding gang, and protected the "Coast Bar".
Their former boss, who was dying from the beating, handed over the Coast Gang to Upton and died.
From that moment on, Upton led them to fight back against other gangs, bribe local officials, and in just one month, the Coast Gang became one of the largest gangs in Conant City.
While the atmosphere was warm, their boss Upton suddenly froze, then seemed a little scared, and then seemed relieved. In short, the expression on the boss's face was very complicated.
Upton, who originally liked to wear shirts, black pants, and dress like a young master, is now wearing local silk clothes, which looks like a gangster.
Everyone in the room didn't dare to breathe. After a minute or two, Upton said, "I'm going back to Backlund."
No matter how everyone cried and tried to persuade him to stay, Boss Upton seemed to have made up his mind to go. He said, "I'm not going to die, why are you crying like this? I'll be back in a while."
...
Backlund, Blanca Street.
Hobert opened Rex's notes and flipped through them. After reading a few pages, Hobert discovered that it roughly recorded Rex's movements after returning to Backlund.
The main content is the record of the seven ancient ruins he discovered in Backlund, four of which had already fallen into the hands of the Loen royal family.
Rex discovered that the royal family seemed to be making some modifications to those four ruins.
