Chapter 470 The Best Era
Lilith turned and pointed at the Famine Knight. Leah also looked at Him, and then found that the Knight's descent posture was not complete, as if he was a creature that was pulled out of the mother's body before it was formed, and there was even dried amniotic fluid on the surface of his body.
Compared with the followers of the Rising Sun, the Knight who was high above and in charge of Famine, He now looked more like a bloated black fat.
He couldn't help but say: "This thing..."
"Ah, of course I can't summon a complete knight, the consequences of that would be unbearable even for me, so I made some moves when using the curse, and used the body of the black goat kid to breed Him again."
"Of course, this process caused most of the black goat kids to die or be injured, and those who survived became waste that only knew how to eat."
"But it doesn't matter, mother will forgive them... I have sent them to see mother personally."
Lilith's voice was still relaxed and happy, and she didn't realize how great she had done.
At the beginning of the curse being revealed, the power of the knights had not yet fully recovered, which created very favorable conditions for those who summoned the knights and wanted to use them to do something. Perhaps the Apocalypse Knights could be killed, but their authority would never be extinguished, and would remain waiting for the birth of the next knight.
This is the so-called knight inheritance, except that the ordinary knight inheritance is automatically selected by the previous knight, and the number of inheritances has been counted in thousands of years, but this is the first time someone has taken the initiative to kill them just to seize authority.
The existence of Meme One is already rare to the point of abnormality. Usually these people cherish their lives very much and rack their brains to find ways to continue to be promoted to Meme Zero. No one will be so full that they will provoke the Apocalypse Knight.
However, the woman in front of the current famine is completely an exception. Her thinking is extreme and she will do anything to achieve her goals. She believes that everything she does is to please her mother and look forward to her mother's early arrival.
Now Lilith thinks that Leah is the best knight successor. Although it is indeed difficult to let Leah bear all the responsibility alone, Lilith still does it based on the principle of mutual consent.
Anyway, both the trader and the traded party are very satisfied.
It is a pleasure to trade with the Lord of Trade.
"Ms. Lilith, I think you summoned me here not just to see me and then hand over the power of famine to someone else."
Liya continued to pull the tentacles on his body as if nothing had happened. Seeing that he couldn't pull them off, and that they would wrap around him again if he pulled them off, he simply let them go.
They pierced his flesh again.
Lilith couldn't help but smile: "We are all colleagues of 06 and shareholders of the Order Association, so I won't beat around the bush with you."
"To be honest, the famine curse had already loosened before I revealed it. I think you know the reason for all this-
The arrival of the plague caused the rampant supernatural pollution, which led to frequent wars, and the scale of the momentum became increasingly uncontrollable. The advent of war inevitably caused famine. Behind all this, death came quietly, and His advent just lacked an opportunity."
In a country ravaged by war, prices will soar, supplies will be in short supply, and vegetation will disappear after the land is affected by the war. Normal crops can no longer grow on the polluted land.
"The current Famine Knight is not complete. His clones are all over the world, and I think you are familiar with the names of those clones."
Lilith said here, deliberately keeping it a secret.
"They are not starving ghosts or farmers and breeders who grow crops. Their identities are more special."
"Do you know what people call them?"
"They call them..."
Lilith's voice became softer and softer, and Leah's pupils gradually shrank.
"Those who make money from people's lives--"

...
[When the third seal was opened, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!"]
[I looked and saw a black horse. The rider on the horse held a scale in his hand. ]
[I heard a voice among the four living creatures saying, "One gold coin for one liter of wheat, one gold coin for three liters of barley, and oil and wine must not be wasted."]
[A loaf of bread, the final auction price is 500,000 gold coins! ]

...
At the same time, all over the world.
Buyers buy milk from ranches at 30 taels per ton, and then sell it at 30 taels per liter.
People simply couldn't afford such expensive prices, so tons of milk were dumped, and the river was completely turned into a milk river. The large number of fish that died in the river made the whole river produce a foul and strange smell under the sun.
Since the outbreak of the war, the demand for factory output has increased rapidly. The hourly wages of workers have increased by 2%, while the productivity of factory workers has soared by 55%.
At the same time, farmers' actual income is also decreasing due to the continuous decline in agricultural product prices, rising rents, taxes and living expenses.
The enemy's artillery fire is ruthless. They know where the lifeline of the economy is, so a large number of buildings have been destroyed, including but not limited to: streets, schools, banks, factories and even hospitals.
The current situation seems calm, but a serious economic crisis has broken out in many parts of the world. Many banks have collapsed, the stock market has fallen into chaos, and the value of gold has skyrocketed and plummeted. Many people can't help but sell their shares indiscriminately and then go bankrupt overnight.
At this time, buyers cannot afford the goods and sellers have no one to buy the goods, creating a vicious cycle.
The number of beggars on the street has increased significantly, but at this time, there are still people in bright clothes, selling food to those people with pity: "Bread, the last loaf, someone has already bid three pieces of paper, is there anyone else who wants to buy it?" ?”
The black-hearted businessman showed a cruel smile: "If you don't buy it, after a while, you won't be able to buy it for five pieces of paper. You don't want it, but there are many rich people who want it."
On the other end, there is another businessman holding a ghost scale, lying about eight taels of barley for ten taels, and deliberately raising the price and then discounting it to lure people to buy.
At this moment, people understood that the devil will always be the devil, and those who can make money will never lack sources of funds at any time, thus making a lot of money.
…
After hearing such news, Riya fell into a brief silence, but Lilith gently patted Famine's body surface.
He said.
"Isn't this a great time for you to perform? From my personal experience, famine is actually the most suitable authority for you. With memes like the Black Merchant, how smooth will it be to perform? This is really the best era..."
"Really?" Riya's tone was still indifferent, making it difficult to hear the emotion in it.
