Epic halo. Rarely does a Seeker's mask display such light. crack
The moonlight can be felt. When the grace of the epic wall takes effect and the mask of the soloist under the moon appears with a faint golden halo, the eyes of some explorers in the audience seem to be on fire.
Many people choose to join this dangerous industry with very pure beliefs in their hearts. And leaving one's own mask on the epic wall, letting the mask appear with an epic halo, such an honor is the most direct proof of this belief!
I don’t know how many successors there will be, but today’s scene is imprinted in my heart, and that kind of eagerness is burning in my soul, hoping that one day I will be the one standing on the stage...
Sean is not that obsessed with leaving his mask on the epic wall. However, when he discovered that Ivan was quietly staring at the completed entry in the commotion, he had a deeper understanding of his old buddy: Although he seemed a bit cold on weekdays, he had no interest in anything other than knowledge. He is indifferent to other things, but deep down in his heart, Ivan is actually an explorer who values honor.
Not to mention Moonlight, although he seemed to be waving calmly to the people in the audience, there was already a sound of crying in his throat. Yes, this guy cried. Sean felt a little moved, but besides being moved, he also found it a little funny.
"Okay, let's find something affordable." After all, it was the top Ace. Arthur seemed to have no feelings about this kind of moment. He pulled Sean over and signaled to move on to the next step quickly, the real settlement——
Rewards for epic quests. crack
Due to the special nature of the exploration industry, epic rewards have always been kept secret from the outside world. However, people have imaginations about how generous the rewards will be, and there are also rumors. Sean had heard about it a little bit, but when they left the epic wall and came to the minister's office to confirm the rewards in person, he still felt a little dazed.
It’s true that we should get something more affordable, but isn’t the association being too sincere?
Sean was convinced that the rewards he heard about at this moment were originally not at the level of their team. If it hadn't been for Arthur's gift, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to achieve this level of gain after a mission until he became Ace.
Among them, the most important reward is one that they don't even need now: a "root" reading opportunity. This is a qualification that many Aces have to try to accumulate contributions to redeem. Its value is comparable to a powerful B-level mysterious inheritance.
The second bonus is that all spiritual rituals are free. This means that for the most expensive Sun Dome Wheel, they only need to prepare B-level ritual materials. All the fees that other explorers have spent so much money will be waived.
The equivalent of $2,000 in association purchasing power. You can buy it in the fifth-floor commercial street, or you can directly deduct the auction price.
These three items can be regarded as a reward for the explorer’s resources, and the last one, even Sean did not expect: Pi
200 shares of the New Zealand Explorers Association.
Although there are rumors, things like association equity are kept secret from those who have not obtained it.
Sean and others obviously had no idea about this matter. After the settlement, Arthur gave them a brief explanation:
"First of all, this thing is different from the stocks on the securities market...
"It's very difficult to buy. Of course, if you must buy it, there is a chance, but the price is ridiculously high.
"Because, basically, those who hold the association's equity are not willing to sell it easily."
"Why?" Sean asked. crack
"Because Explorers with equity are different from those without. Equity not only symbolizes the value of the association, but more importantly, it also represents power——
"This is a very interesting part of the association's articles of association. In some major decisions, every share is a voting right. It is called equity."
"Every share is a voting right? One share is one vote?"
"That's right, one share is one vote. So, the current situation means that, for example, the next president election, it originally had nothing to do with you, but now, you also have votes..."
In other words, the stock is some kind of direct power, the power of the Society of Explorers. Sean understood immediately. No wonder association equity is so difficult to obtain, and once owned, people are reluctant to resell it.
No need to ask about the specific price, you can imagine how much something like this is worth.
"How many shares are there in total?"
"98,000 shares constitute all the power of the association."
In comparison, the 200 shares on hand seem a bit small. Five percent of the vote.
Moonlight said: "In other words, the more equity a person has, the greater the influence he has on the association?"
"That's right. But the articles of association also stipulate that the equity a person can own is limited, and it must match his rank. For example, Sean, you are King now, and you can only own up to 600 shares in your hand...
"The largest vote base is nothing more than the president, vice president, department heads, and Aces. Nearly half of the equity is in the hands of these big guys."
Sean knows that the equity game is a game that can control the trend of the entire exploration industry. And I just got the ticket for this game.
Only then did he understand how the so-called president election would be conducted. It’s a game for the support of equity holders. crack
“What is the current support ratio between Phillips and Nietzsche?”
"It's very bad," Arthur said matter-of-factly. "Ninety-eight thousand people were divided into four parts. One-quarter supported old Phillips, one-quarter were neutral, and the rest supported Nietzsche.
"So you know," Arthur said with a wry smile, "why people are saying that Nietzsche is coming..."
It was difficult for Sean to comprehend the undercurrent of this. The electoral showdown between Phillips and Nietzsche turned out to be not only a conflict between two ideals, but also various exchanges of interests and commitments behind it.
Sean knew, and he could even say so directly: "So the key is not the concept of development at all, the key is the distribution of benefits?"
Shh. Arthur raised his finger and smiled. That expression means...
As long as you understand, don't say some things so clearly. crack
"There is no doubt that we have to prevent the Black Joker from ascending to the throne, right?" Sean doesn't want to face a power monster six months later. if that is the case……
He could almost see the strong men coming out in front of Nietzsche's figure.
Arthur's eyes flickered for a while and he said, "Without a doubt."
·
Sean is tired.
He dropped Moonlight and Ivan home, and then drove back home. When he parked the car in the carport, he realized deeply: he was tired.
I need to take a good rest... With this thought in mind, he got out of the car. When he closed the car door, he saw a thin girl standing at the door of his house. crack
Aaliyah.
She was wearing cotton pajamas, her hair was tied up, her nose and ankles outside her slippers were red. After a while, her eyes turned red and her nose became even redder. She yelled and ran over:
"Sean!"
