After Robert received financial support from his nephew, William, he did not go to Vigilante A directly. Instead, he prepared to go to the newly opened shop, "Magical Provenance". He wanted to negotiate with the person in charge there.
He drove from his villa in the southern mountains and drove on the crowded streets of Qi City.
When he saw a long line of cars in front of him again, Robert could not help but feel depressed. He should not have been so low-key. He could have learned from those guys above and flown directly …
He looked ahead and saw that there were some arrogant fellows flying along the road at an altitude of 100 to 200 meters above the ground. They were flying along the road at a steady pace.
From time to time, some people would look down at the crowded traffic below and smile proudly, pointing at them.
After cultivating the universal ability "Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique" and entering Bucket-level, there were more and more people who mastered the art of flying.
In a densely populated place like Qi City, it was not uncommon to see people flying.
Moreover, being able to fly had replaced having a house as one of the new criteria for choosing a spouse …
Robert was only one step away from cultivating to Pond-level, so he could still fly.
As long as he registered for a personal pilot's license at Qi City's Special Affairs Office and learned the basic flying rules, such as limits on height and altitude, flying too fast, following a few fixed routes, and not flying randomly …
This city was already very congested. Although it was only a provincial capital, the main roads were no less congested than those big cities … Therefore, being able to fly was a huge advantage.
When the Era of Vitality began, because it was where the Dragon God was, more people came to live. It was originally just a provincial capital, but the population showed an explosive trend. Countless villages swarmed around the city.
During the Lunaette Crisis, the population rapidly decreased. After the crisis, the population quickly returned and even overtook the population. According to the latest statistics, the population of Qi City had exceeded 18 million, becoming a super city.
If not for timely control, the population here would have increased.
Robert looked out of the window helplessly and drove slowly with the traffic, but his mind had already flown to the other side of the ocean.
With the Pharos of the East's brilliance, at least the motherland could maintain its calm on the surface despite the turbulent undercurrents. The industry and agriculture could still operate as usual, and most ordinary people could continue to enjoy their old lives, and even have the chance to become better.
It was the same for other countries.
Thinking of this, Robert had a special feeling. It was as if Vigilante A should not have appeared in reality …
If the other party did not appear, based on the information he had, within a few short years, his mother country would suffer at least dozens of catastrophes.
Moreover, tens of millions of people were killed or injured in every disaster. How many people did the United States have in total?
In other words, without the appearance of Vigilante A, many of the countries on Earth would have been destroyed, just like Japan …
This was the true face of the Era of Vitality. Just as the dinosaurs could not immediately adapt to the new era, humans should also pay the same price in the face of the new era.
However, Vigilante A's sudden appearance was like a highly effective human immune system, killing the germs and toxins before they could spread.
In fact, he was very curious. How did the other party distinguish the existence of those villains in time? How could they not accuse anyone unjustly?
However, in the Era of Vitality, there were too many mysterious and inexplicable things, and this was just one of them. He could only guess that the other party had the Heavenly Eye to distinguish between good and evil … just like how some people could tell the truth from the lies.
This era could no longer be explained by the scientific theories of the past. New theories were being reconstructed to adapt to this new era.
After all, the history of the development of science lay in constantly overthrowing old theories and creating new ones.
As he pondered along the way, the originally half-hour drive took two hours. No wonder people said that if the subway was not repaired, Qi City could be renamed to "Crowded City" …
Arriving at the street where the "Magical Provenance" shop was located, Robert sighed and once again missed the small town in his hometown.
There would never be so many people in front of him.
In front of him was a large food and beverage city that occupied an entire street. Cars came and went, and it was extremely prosperous.
Several huge banners hung at the entrance. "A warm celebration for Fang's Restaurant Group Chairman and Head Chef Fang Ning winning the 13th International God of Cookery Competition …"
Robert was not interested in this. He raised his head and looked across the street. On the other side of the wide street was the newly opened shop — "Magical Provenance". Compared to the majestic Fang's Restaurant, this place was inconspicuous.
It was clustered together with a group of commercial banks and high-end office buildings. It was just a shop facing the street, and the area it occupied was only the size of an ordinary bank branch.
Robert turned the car into the underground parking lot of the food and beverage city. They were the only ones nearby who had free parking spaces.
Then, he walked a few hundred meters, crossed the road, and arrived outside the "Magical Provenance" shop.
In front of the shop, the floor was paved with pure white marble. The appearance of the shop was very simple. It was only a small three-story building with a wooden sign hanging in front of the shop.
On the wooden sign was written the name of the shop, "Magical Provenance". Around the words, flowing lights surrounded it, giving it a magical vibe. This distinguished it from the surrounding modern institutions.
Two white and square Whitestone people stood in front of the shop. They were the famous honest clan of the Upper Realm, the Whitestone people.
Using them as employees of this kind of institution, Robert had to admit that it was a good move.
He knew very well that in this industry with a huge threshold, as long as he followed the prescribed order, was honest, and did not play any tricks, he would be able to reap huge profits.
On the contrary, if he thought too much and always wanted to play around and learn the tricks of the modern financial circle, he would die too quickly.
"Sir, please come in." The Whitestone person on the left spoke to him in a low voice, giving off a sense of steadiness and gravity.
Although it was not his first time here, Robert still felt a little excited.
This was because he completely understood the great significance of this institution. It was one of the starting points for humans on Earth to surpass the races of the Upper Realm.
It could gather scattered and useless magical energy, and then trade it to a few powerhouses for concentrated use.
The reason why modern countries could far surpass the feudal medieval countries was because of the advancement of technology and the evolution of organizational forms, which allowed them to gather more manpower and material resources and exert power that far surpassed the feudal medieval countries.
This was the reason why a small country could defeat a bloated feudal country.
Although the latter was big, it could not gather manpower and was defeated one by one.
This was the significance of the Magical Energy Bank. Like traditional banks, it gathered scattered funds to do big things.
