Chapter 63: Chapter 63: New Event - Angel Investor


    ?


    On the first day of the fourth week, at midnight, the prompt from "Lord Era" arrived as scheduled.


    "The raid event has ended, and any unused Points in the point store have been cleared."


    "Now awarding Points Leaderboard rewards."


    "First place..."


    "This week''s event: Angel Investor"


    "Choose a character as your investee and invest in them. The Resources you invest will determine your return... or your loss."


    "With each rise or fall in the investee''s earnings, you will gain or lose corresponding Points."


    "Invested Resources will be returned at the close of the event. The more you invest, the more you can earn-yet, the more you could lose as well."


    "Please note: Investors cannot interfere with their investee''s world, please invest with confidence."


    "Please note: As the event progresses, there will be restrictions on the Resources you can invest (remember this)."


    "The Angel Investor event includes a Profit Leaderboard, with rankings based on final earnings obtained."


    "First place: 500,000 of 3 types of Basic Resources, 50,000 of 4 types of Special Resources, 10 Advanced Treasures, 10 rare Building Blueprints."


    "Second place: 500,000 of 3 types of Basic Resources, 50,000 of 4 types of Special Resources, 6 Advanced Treasures, 6 rare Building Blueprints."


    "Third place: 500,000 of 3 types of Basic Resources, 50,000 of 4 types of Special Resources, 4 Advanced Treasures, 4 rare Building Blueprints."


    "Fourth to Tenth place: 500,000 of 3 types of Basic Resources, 50,000 of 4 types of Special Resources, 2 Advanced Treasures."


    "These rewards are getting more ridiculous by the minute," he muttered. "Half a million in Basic Resources plus fifty thousand in Special Resources, the number of Advanced Treasures and rare Building Blueprints has doubled."


    But the more extravagant the rewards, the less confident Qin Muye felt, because as they were still in the Adaptation Period, would "Lord Era" really be that generous?


    This felt like eating a final meal.


    "But this time it doesn''t involve combat power, so it seems like there is a chance to compete?" Qin Muye realized that this event depended entirely on vision... or perhaps luck. "Drawing investee instance..."


    "Draw complete, investee instance: Sky Breaking."


    "It''s over." Qin Muye felt numb. Couldn''t you just change one word and make ''Sky Breaking'' to ''Vast Sky''?


    This one-word difference completely skewed the storyline.


    "Please select your investee..."


    A long list of names appeared, covering everyone and everything within the entire investee instance.


    How should one invest here?


    total earnings remaining: -0.01]


    ""


    Qin Muye was utterly dumbfounded by this development.


    "Wait a minute, if the return is negative, wouldn''t I have to pay out money?"


    "The human heart is treacherous..."


    It was only then that Qin Muye realized.


    The formula for resource return was investment x earnings, and if it ended like this, he would directly lose 1,000 Gold Coins-no wonder he gasped in shock.


    However, another prompt quickly refreshed on the screen.


    [Fang Miao turns the tables, ends his marriage early, and declares ''Thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west; don''t bully the young and poor'', your investment returns increased by 0.1, your total earnings remaining: 0.09]


    "This storyline seems familiar; are you sure this thing isn''t plagiarized from Emperor Yan or something?" Qin Muye reflected on this familiar storyline and words.


    Although the conditions were of his own choosing, he was still bewildered if this was the


    actual plot unfolding.


    After all, who could have anticipated such developments?


    [Fang Miao sets a three-year challenge, your investment returns increased by 0.1, your total


    earnings remaining: 0.2]


    "What''s next, is it time for Yao Lao to appear? Oh, this knockoff investing world might not have a Yao Lao, who knows what kind of ''Lao'' will show up."


    [Fang Miao trains hard on the back mountain, a soul named Fu Lao appears in the ring, and he


    learns the true reason why his strength has regressed and cannot advance, your investment returns increased by 1, your total earnings remaining: 1.2]


    "Hiss~, it seems the time ratio isn''t the same; it''s only been a few minutes for me, and the


    guy already knows about Yao Lao... oh, they call him Fu Lao."


    "If this wave isn''t profitable, what a waste of such a good script."


    After watching for two minutes, Qin Muye didn''t continue to pay attention. He didn''t dare use


    his Points anymore; he had to wait until the trading closed, as the outcome could fluctuate with the rise and fall of earnings.


    This round had already turned a loss into a profit.


    Qin Muye knew he had bet correctly.


    Of course, once the investee dies, the investment freezes immediately. As for the multiplier of the returns, it naturally depends on whether they''ve experienced a drop or rise before death; it won''t decrease to the negatives, so even if Fang Miao dies now, Qin Muye''s hundred thousand Gold Coins would return an earning of one hundred twenty thousand Gold Coins.
