Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

Chapter 736: Advantages in Competing for Ranking
"If I sell 'Sunrise Over the Mountain' and gain 500 million in assets, I won't have any problems trying to top the rankings this month."

"But the price I have to pay is this painting of 'Sunrise over the Mountain'."

"Now, I have already opened up a gap of 2 billion on the list. Even if Kamisato Yinghua wants to catch up, it won't be that easy."

"Although the extra 500 million is more secure, the strategic value is not particularly great."

"Anyway, I should stay here and wait until the last moment before going out."

"This way, there will be more room to respond to changes in the rankings."

"If that doesn't work, you can exchange it with the "Sunrise over the Mountain Shadows" painting, and that will be fine."

"after all……"

"If you use the Sunrise Over the Mountain to exchange for liquid assets, you won't make much money. All you get is these liquid assets. But if the amount is too large, it will be difficult to convert it into what you really need."

"If it's not used to top the rankings, but just to exchange for liquid assets, then the strategic significance is too small, and it's almost useless to me now."

After weighing the pros and cons, Chen Ye did not choose to sell "Sunrise over the Mountain" so quickly, but decided to wait for a while.

Let the bullets fly a little longer...

If Kamisato was really that capable, he could have blown up so much asset value and rushed to the level he has reached now...

that time.

Let’s see whether we should make a deal with the time merchant. There is no rush.

Moreover, for Chen Ye, "Sunrise in Shanyin" has other strategic significance.

It’s still different from the Bone King Medal.

The Bone King Medal is only worth collecting. Perhaps if you hoard it, you will have a chance to exchange it for more things, but now that you have time, if the merchant offers a friendly price, then it is already the best choice.

Moreover, there is no point in keeping it even if you don't sell it.

On the contrary, "Sunrise over the Mountain" has a close connection with his own [Supreme Destiny], which is one of his professions.

It was because of Zixia that he entered the realm of [Supreme Destiny]...

and so.

Anyway, let's investigate this dynasty and find out what happened later.

It will be of great benefit to my career development, including the subsequent relationship and cooperation with Zixia.

"I plan to think about it again. After all, this painting, Sunrise over the Mountain, is quite pleasing to my eye."

“There may be more treasure chests to be fished out later!”

"My current need for copper coins is not that urgent, so I plan to wait and see, and may consider whether to exchange for other things later."

Chen Ye said with a smile, not making his words too final, but leaving enough room.

He could see that the time merchant was still somewhat interested in the painting "Sunrise over the Mountain".

Completely destroying the other party's desire to buy is not a good thing either.

Make the other party interested in cooperating with you in the future...

This will help develop long-term alliances.

"Haha, yes."

"With this brother's skills, I'm sure he can catch more good things in this sea area."

"Of course, you should keep the collection you like for yourself, so that it can be a commemoration of your fishing trip."

“I understand this principle very well.”

The time merchant smiled.

then……

Chen Ye, the fisherman and the time merchant returned to their respective areas and continued fishing.

This time...

Instead, the fisherman caught a wooden box first.

"I'm really blessed by you guys today. It was so smooth for me to catch something good. Haha, I'm so lucky today!"

After the fisherman fished up the wooden box, he did not hide it but happily carried the box back to the edge of the Sharp Cliff to share it with everyone.

"Old man, what did you catch this time?" asked the girl in red, with her hands on her hips.

The fisherman laughed and said, "The treasure we caught this time is of great use!"

Followed by.

After the fisherman opened the wooden box, a pipe suddenly appeared inside.

The girl in red looked at the pipe for a moment, frowned and said, "You old man, you are really a smoker. This is obviously just a pipe. It doesn't have any extraordinary value, right?"

"Don't you already have a large collection of pipes?"

"Why are you still so interested in this kind of thing?"

The fisherman chuckled and said, "You girl, of course you don't understand. Although the pipes all look the same, they have different functions."

After saying this, he took out the walnut pipe from the wooden box he had just brought up from fishing, put it in his mouth and took a puff.

soon……

There was a scent of intoxicating fragrance coming out from the mouth of the pipe and rising up.

The old man chuckled and said, "Girl, did you see any clues?"

The girl in red was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to realize something: "There is no tobacco or firewood, so how can I smoke it?"

"Haha, I really haven't spent so much time with you in vain. You still have some good eyesight!" The fisherman laughed. "This pipe doesn't require any resources, you can smoke it endlessly, and it can also refresh your mind. Isn't it a good thing?"

"This..." The girl in red seemed a little speechless. "You really have all kinds of pipes. I didn't expect that you would find something that can be smoked without tobacco. Now you don't have to worry about the stock of tobacco, right?"

The time merchant seemed a little distressed and laughed: "It seems that I will lose a big customer who can buy tobacco at a high price in the future!"

The fisherman rolled his eyes at the time merchant:
"The tobacco we buy from you is really too expensive. It's a bit outrageous. Even though I have been staying in this hellhole for many years, it's not easy for you to come here occasionally, but you can't charge such a high price to an old friend like me. You are really taking advantage of me!"

The time merchant smiled and said, "Scarcity makes things valuable. The rarer the source of goods, the higher its value. As businessmen, we still have to abide by the laws of the market."

"Humph, you are just talking nonsense. I think you set such a high price just for me!"

The fisherman sneered, not being fooled by the time merchant's lies.

Chen Ye stared at the tobacco and, through his talent of [Blood Word Research], he also knew the general information about the pipe:
"Spiritual Light Pipe, I didn't expect that just taking a puff of this pipe could increase the upper limit of spiritual power by 20%. Although it is only temporary, for most spiritual beings, this is a very good improvement!"

"pity……"

"For this temporary increase in the total amount of spiritual power, you can only choose one BUFF to stack. If you choose another BUFF, the effect of the previous BUFF will be invalid."

"After all, the reason why the total amount of spirituality is increased is that it can only be achieved in a special spiritual state."

"For example, after I eat the food that doubles my spiritual power, I can temporarily gain double my spiritual power. But if I use tobacco, the double spiritual power increase will be replaced by a 20% increase."

"This is obviously a loss for me..."

"But the advantage of this pipe is that it does not require any resources to be consumed and can be used anytime and anywhere."

"This is much more convenient than I imagined."

"My double spiritual food amplification means that I need to make it myself, which is quite troublesome." "If the subsequent professional level of the King Realm is upgraded and can also make food of the same level, then I can give this task to him."

Chen Ye evaluated the function of this pipe and felt that although it was of some significance to him, it was not that great.

If you really need this amplification effect, spend some effort and make more SSS-level food, then you will still have a chance to achieve this effect.

and so.

This pipe only increases spiritual power by 20%, which is actually not very meaningful.

The fisherman obviously had no intention of selling the pipe, but planned to keep it for himself.

after all……

As a fisherman, apart from fishing, the rest of the time is very boring.

Basically waiting for the fish to take the bait.

at this time……

I’m afraid I’ll fall asleep while fishing!
If there is a refreshing pipe like this to help, it can help to kill this boring time.

It can also prevent you from falling asleep on the boat due to boredom...

This will result in missing out on the good stuff you'll catch next time you fish!
and……

With the increase of spirituality, the efficiency of fishing will definitely be higher!

Considering the fisherman’s current status, even though it’s only a 20% increase, it’s definitely not small!
The time merchant was a little envious of the pipe that the fisherman had caught, but he did not make an offer. It was obvious that he had seen that his friend was planning to keep the pipe for himself.

Naturally, there is no need to bid for the acquisition.

"This sea area really has a lot of good things!"

"Next..."

“I wonder how many good things I can catch!”

There was a gleam of anticipation in Chen Ye's eyes. In addition to the two treasure chests of special collection value that he had caught, the fisherman's harvest this time also made Chen Ye's eyes light up.

In this area, if you fish, you might even get special items that temporarily increase your spiritual limit!
It still has an improving effect on my actual combat!

and so.

Chen Ye's next focus was not intended to be limited to fishing for the Xuanhuang treasure chest.

As for the treasure chests scattered everywhere, shining with glass light, you might as well consider whether to go fishing there.

Next.

Chen Ye once again immersed his spiritual power in the water at a depth of 500 meters.

However, this time, Chen Ye felt that the resistance was much smaller than before.

"Fishing for treasure chests, facing the complex situation of the abyssal sea, can also be regarded as a spiritual tempering."

As Chen Ye thought about this, he digested the information about the performance of [Spirit Angel] again.

really……

Only through practice can we increase our experience and achieve real role-playing progress.

In fact, Chen Ye already has a deep understanding and mastery of many acting rules.

But there is still a gap between knowing this and actually achieving the desired effect.

As the saying goes, "To know this matter thoroughly, you must practice it yourself"...

One must actually endure the test of this spiritual pressure to know what the next spiritual stage will feel like.

Sometimes, before reaching this stage, we may just be aware that this thing exists.

But to really experience that feeling...

There will still be a certain gap.

just now.

As Chen Ye's performance as a role player continues to improve, his status as a [Spirit Angel] is also constantly improving.

The water depth of 500 meters is almost completely adaptable to Chen Ye now.

The pressure from the deep sea will just feel extremely cold and bone-chilling, but once you get used to this feeling, you will gradually become numb to it, and then it won't have much of an impact.

just now.

Entering a water depth of 500 meters, the feeling is similar to the 100 to 200 meters in the initial stage.

"We can explore deeper areas..." Chen Ye thought.

Then, his target was immediately locked on the area with a water depth of 800 meters.

Most of the treasure chests in this 500-meter area are Xuanhuang treasure chests. Occasionally, there are some special treasure chests with strange colors scattered everywhere.

Occasionally there are also glass treasure chests.

But it seems that it doesn't mean much to me.

Therefore, when Chen Ye was at a water depth of 500 meters, he did not consider these glazed treasure chests, also because the job transfer items he needed were too high-level now.

Although the value of the job transfer items is also very high...

but.

If it is to be converted into asset value, the return is still not as good as these dark yellow or golden scale treasure chests.

And if you want to advance yourself...

Then.

The quality of these glass treasure chests is totally not enough for my own use. It is really tasteless to eat them and it would be a pity to throw them away.

But if you reach a depth of 800 meters...

There are already some glazed treasure chests here, shining with brilliant luster, transforming into a long glazed bridge, connecting with one's own luck aura.

Therefore, Chen Ye knew that if nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to find some good things at a water depth of 800 meters!
Not to mention it's related to the main profession...

Even if it is a special item that a fisherman uses, which can temporarily enhance spirituality or has some other use, it is acceptable.

There's still plenty of time anyway.

Chen Ye plans to catch more goodies...

at this time.

When he opened the bloody phone, he could already see some comments, and was extremely surprised to find that the value of his assets had instantly jumped to 5.2 billion.

The values ​​of the second and third places have changed slightly, but they have not increased too much in an instant.

It can be said……

Chen Ye is now in this special "Forgotten Land", and the advantage he has in competing for the rankings is definitely the greatest!

You just need to stay in this place, fish out various treasure chests with extremely high asset values, exchange them with the time merchant, and you can win!

at this time,

Chen Ye noticed a treasure chest shining with colored glaze not far away!
