Ever since Vila Nova Dônia and its core team had been officially established, it had been on a steady rise.
After discovering a unique mineral resource in the area and proving its potential for future development, he had truly entered the sights of the people of Eich.
After defeating the challenge of the local Seymour people and successfully building the city, it proved that the new party had some skills. An outstanding party was the key to success.
Later on, after defeating the Evil God's challenge, New Donia City was already established. Many people saw it as a well-run legal person, and they were all guessing when it would go public (establish a divine system) and take the next step.
Some people estimated that the earliest commercial shares had increased by at least thirty times in just five short years.
If someone had had good foresight back then and directly suppressed it, it would have become a commercial miracle in the new era.
As for the internal shares that could only be controlled by the churches of the New Gods, the amount of shares that could only be controlled by the churches of the New Gods had been repeatedly snatched up. As the situation in New Tonia City improved several times, the large churches also increased their investment quota several times.
It was difficult to calculate how much the shares had increased, because the transfer of every bit of shares wasn't just a matter of money.
If one had to estimate the growth quota, the market value of the Game Church had increased by more than fifty thousand times … This exaggerated increase wasn't only because the Game Church had been weak back then, but also because the Game Church's media, entertainment, and toy industries in the new city had matured.
The Game Church wasn't an exception.
Even if the small and medium-sized Churches that had persevered back then weren't strong enough to enter the board of directors, their market value had increased by more than a hundred times. Some Churches had even sold their shares to the Griffin Church and the Oakson Church, who wanted to enter the game. Their profits were even more incomprehensible.
All along, Vila Nova Dônia's situation had been exceptionally good, so it was naturally valued by the Aishi market. But today, this city had suffered its greatest failure in history. When the news reached the Aishi Saul, it caused the entire market to shake. Then … the market value increased by another 10% in a single day.
"Are these people crazy? They lost a battle and were pushed to the ground, yet they still want to inflate our share price? You still need to invest more? "
However, even the grumbling Rorschach knew that the two were completely incomparable.
Although they had lost the battle, they hadn't lost any of their foundations, nor had they become mortal enemies with Titan. In fact, they even managed to establish relations with him … although many people still had reservations about this.
Just by proving Titan's existence and the fact that Titan's divine weapon was in that lightning zone, countless New Gods were tempted. They immediately took action.
In just twenty-four hours, more than ten large churches had attempted to acquire the shares of the board of directors and become one of the owners of the city. However, it was clear that their goal was not easy to achieve.
In the past, Griffin and the Sons of Oak were able to successfully acquire the Gryphon and successfully enter the game mainly because the situation was unstable at the time. Many people lacked confidence in Vila Nova Dônia.
Most importantly, many of those churches were the initial members of the new city, and they were also the weakest batch.
Back then, Rorschach and the Game Church didn't have much room to be picky in order to make up for the numbers. Many weaker churches joined in.
Just like how there would be people losing money in a large bull market, there would be plenty of churches that weren't well-managed. Besides, exploring Ansorenne was a risky endeavor to begin with. The New Gods' early investments failed, and their elite descenders died in battle. All of this could lead to the collapse of the cycle of development.
Thus, as long as a large church was willing to offer a price, there would always be people who would sell their shares, even if they knew that this was a short-sighted decision to let go of this opportunity to soar … However, if they were about to starve to death, they shouldn't think too far ahead. It was better to think of a way to fill their stomachs first. This was especially true since many people had their confidence destroyed by the cruel trials. They believed that they and their companions had no ability to compete for this large cake of the new generation.
But now, the members of Vila Nova Dônia's board of directors had already been replaced twice. The remaining members were either completely invested in the opening of the wastelands and entered a virtuous cycle, or ambitious individuals who had their eyes on Titan and Vila Nova Dônia's new Gods in No Man's Land.
In such a situation, how could they possibly quit? Even if they were short on money, they wouldn't directly sell their jobs … but such a thing still happened.
Two of the members of the board of directors, one of which was a church ranked around 20 or so, both sold all their shares on the same day and chose to leave. However, there was no news about the new church that would replace them.
Over the past few days, Rorschach saw that the members of these churches who quit had unusually ugly expressions.
Rorschach could understand. Now that it was certain that a tremendous opportunity was right in front of them, who would be willing to quit? A powerful God's faction was about to rise up in the wastelands. Such an opportunity would be impossible to make up for with money and resources … Everyone worked so hard to obtain money and resources for the sake of a chance to rise up in power. Under normal circumstances, how could they possibly be willing to part with something like that?
Rorschach didn't believe that there wasn't something fishy going on behind the scenes. Two days later, news came from the Radiance Scroll.
These churches weren't independent to begin with. They had previously received support from other factions. Now that their superiors wanted them to contribute, they naturally did so.
Perhaps their superiors would give them enough in return, but it was impossible for them to give up on this opportunity to rise up in power. Naturally, the superstar churches of the various factions would replace them.
At this time, Rorschach was once again certain that forcefully becoming independent was absolutely necessary.
Sometimes, the most difficult thing to repay was this kind of intangible favor, assistance, help, and alliance. As the price for receiving support, or as part of the support themselves, many small and medium-sized churches had received "assistance" from the second and third line combat forces of other major factions. This was a very dangerous situation.
Two of the three churches had fallen due to such "assistance" and "alliance relationships." The last church was ridiculous because a God had suddenly gone crazy and made a bet with an unknown God. The God had then lost everything.
Setting up a trap. Immortals. Idiots. Various negative words lingered in Rorschach's mind when he heard such a small story. Most of them were true.
"Which factions are the new ones?"
If nothing unexpected happened, the core of the God's faction would be replaced this time. Once the God's faction was established, it would be too difficult to replace it. The members of the board of directors would also be fixed.
Rorschach was rather curious about his future colleagues.
But even the Radiance Scroll couldn't find out which church had decided to intervene. It only heard that one side seemed to be the elves, while the other side seemed to have the aura of death.
"Elves? That's the worst possible answer. "
Although Ansorenne's physical body was also of elven bloodline, Rorschach and his sister didn't like elves at all. And this time, Rorschach was certain that their dislike for elves was mutual after many unexpected encounters with elves.
"Aura of death? Aren't undead unable to perform Divine Bestowments normally? Then, is it Hell? Or is it a dark element mage? "
Although he didn't have an accurate answer, Rorschach still had a good impression of this negative faction in front of everyone.
The new board of directors would be held in one week. At that time, the members would definitely meet. At such a critical time, Rorschach felt that the newcomers probably wouldn't have the patience to wait until next year.
"I hope they're strong. The upcoming missions are going to be really tough."
At the new board of directors meeting, the first thing that needed to be discussed was naturally the result of the negotiations with Titan. The three trials sounded silly, but they were even more silly to do.
After that, how to deal with the arrogant Titan, whether to do the trial or not, how to do it, and how to arm and ask for payment after doing it, all needed to be discussed.
The first was the trial of strength after bargaining. Titan wanted the ants to prove that they had enough strength to be of help.
The original condition of killing the gray elder, the ruler of the earth, was directly ignored. Both sides knew that it was impossible. In the end, the condition became to kill an enemy Titan, and Wood had to provide the location of the other side.
The second was the trial of art that made people feel speechless. As the creator's top artisan, Titan was very confident in his own art of creation. Wood wanted the Aishi People to come up with enough art to prove that they were culturally capable enough to communicate with Titan.
No one would find this difficult even if there was no meeting. Considering the current level of culture and openness of the Aishi, no one felt that this would hinder the Aishi People.
The third trial made Rorschach feel that the first two trials were just to make up the numbers. Titan Wood's real goal was here.
"Nurture a Titan mixed-blood into a talent? Let him join the new god system of Vila Nova Dônia? And appoint me as his guardian? What kind of trial of wisdom is this? It's more like a kindergarten aunt's trial! "
