"I see," Edward exclaimed, his eyes ablaze with eagerness, "So, does this mean I can take the plunge into gold?""That's the notion. When it comes to gold, the name of the game is to kickstart a low-volatility to high-volatility follow-through strategy," Cicci reappeared on the screen, her gaze locked onto Edward, her eyes as wide as saucers."Low-volatility to high-volatility follow-through? What's the lowdown on that?" Edward couldn't resist but inquire."This strategy is in a league of its own, a far cry from the narrow range reversal tactic we delved into earlier. Given gold's rollercoaster-like volatility, it's tailor-made for the low-volatility to high-volatility follow-through," Cicci explained, her voice as melodious as a serene stream, leaving a sense of tranquility in its wake."But Cicci," Edward quizzed with genuine curiosity, "You didn't exactly dish out a straightforward answer to my question.""Didn't you mention that you're running low on the clock?" Cicci's laughter r
At the moment, Bellum‘s men took turns flaunting the QR code on his phone to Edward, their eyes fixed on the promise of riches.Edward, exuding a devil-may-care attitude toward money, casually transferred the $100,000 cash flow to each of them.The number of the people was small, a meager twenty or so.Edward couldn't help but entertain the notion that these crisp Benjamins he transferred might steer these souls away from the abyss of wickedness, a play he considered a noble act for the betterment of humanity.It might have run up a tab of roughly $2 million, but he viewed it as a bet worth making, for it might translate into twenty less demons haunting the world."Now that you've all cashed in, it's time to roll up your sleeves. Free those innocents unjustly caged in this dungeon," Edward commanded, a glint of resolve in his eyes."Of course, it's strictly business. We'll dance to your tune," one of the gang members responded with a sly grin."You've never asked us to tango with the
In the blink of an eye, Bellum unfurled a sprawling national map of the Gluttony Gang's covert lairs, each one etched onto the page like a canvas of criminal intrigue.As Edward took hold of the chart, his eyes stretched wide in disbelief, aghast at the panorama of sinister sanctuaries clandestinely stitched into the very fabric of the nation.These foul laboratories, infamous for their uncanny knack for snatching unsuspecting souls, unraveled the mystery of the persistent vanishing acts that had plagued him for ages.Edward's innate well of justice surged like an unquenchable inferno, and he pledged to turn these malevolent hives into ruins. But he was all too aware that embarking on this herculean endeavor solo would be nothing short of a fool's errand.As the ancient adage would have it, to collar a crook, you've got to first nab the big cheese.Edward was resolute in his belief that the Gluttony Gang's grandmaster had to be incapacitated or bent to his will. Swiveling to face Bell
"I'll be damned if I don't find that son of a gun Caelum and serve him a platter of revenge hot enough to make the devil himself break a sweat," Edward raged, his eyes burning with vengeful fire."This slippery snake probably thought we were pushing up daisies and skedaddled. But mark my words, he hasn't skipped town too far.""You're spot-on, Edward," Evelyn pondered, her voice dripping with resolute determination. "For now, our number one job is to get the heck out of this place and give Laura the send-off she's due.""You hit the nail on the head," Edward agreed, his resolve unwavering.Edward summoned a blazing inferno in his hand and hurled it like a meteor at the switch behind the iron gate.The moment his fireball collided with the switch, a deafening explosion rocked the dungeon. The switch went flying from one end to the other, and the iron gate, forged by artificers, began its slow ascent, revealing a path to liberty.With Laura's lifeless body slung over his shoulder, Edwar
“It must be Caelum,” seethed Edward, “It looks like we have to fight against him here.”Instantly, Edward floored his own car. He even wanted to make it fly if possible since it was now dangerous for them. Numerous missiles came flying toward them mercilessly. Fortunately, Edward had activated his Life Skills Package, so he could easily drive his car like a pro. “Haha, there’s no way for you to escape this time,’ here came the familiar voice as the car behind them got closer. Sure enough, the voice came from none other than Caelum. He had gone back to the dungeon and found no corpses of Edward. Consequently, he was sure that he and his friend had not been killed by deadly black smoke. “It’s fortunate that you narrowed escaped from the dungeon,” shouted Caelum, “Now go to hell!” He kept firing the missiles at Edward’s car in hopes of killing him in the explosions. Yet, what pissed him off was that his missiles were always missing. When he was only a few meters away from Edward’s
"No, I still have value to you," Caelum suddenly grew tense. "And some advantages you can take. You might take me to Gluttony Hell, at least you can think of me as a hostage for a more secure negotiation." Edward gave a cold snort and said, "I know what's going through your mind. If I were to measure your value to me, I'd say it's depreciated by at least three-quarters." With that, Edward let his large, green hand tighten its grip on Caelum's soul. In just a few moments, Caelum cried out in pain, "No, please don't kill me. I told you I'm the nephew of the Gluttony Gang's leader. If I die, I can guarantee that our leader will eradiate you all. Trust me!" Edward paid him no mind and continued to tighten his control over Caelum's soul with that green hand. Caelum's eyes started to roll back, and it seemed like he was on the brink of passing out when Edward suddenly loosened the grip slightly. Caelum took a sharp breath, feeling like he had come back to life. However, when he even t
Chapter 146 Roaring ThunderAfter disconnecting the video call, Edward thought that it was time for him to check his trades to see what was going on in the market.Edward gasped in awe as the profit soared dramatically. It looked like that the trading strategy that Cicci had offered to him was absolutely right.In the whirlwind world of high-stakes trading, where fortunes could be made or shattered in the blink of an eye.In the current market, the gold instrument had erupted like a volcano. A thousand pips soared, and it was as if the very air hummed with the thrill of it. No doubt, the market was awash with the fevered emotions of safety seekers because of regional conflicts that gained the attention of the world.Edward just couldn't believe his luck."Well, I'll be damned. A mere blink of an eye, and I’ve got a floating million bucks." He felt as though truckloads of cash were pouring into his account.Just as he was basking in his newfound wealth, Cicci's face beamed on his scree
‘Roaring Thunder?” Edward exclaimed, wondering what he could do with it. His mind was read by his system instantly, which sent him a new text message. [Roaring thunder, a kind of pill that can help you cultivate in the lightning. Most people will be dead if they are hit by lighting. Yet, if you take this pill’ Roaring Thunder,’ it will make you immune to lightning and thunderous attack. On the contrary, you will be tempered by thunder and lightning of several ten thousand volts.] ‘Wow, that’s amazing,’ exclaimed Edward again, ‘I’ve never expected there’s such a pill in this world. I have to say there are quite a few precious pills here in this online store. It looks like I can shop often here. Cicci will be quite happy if I do.’ Edward was on cloud nine now. Without any further hesitation, Edward instantly consumed five thousand luxury points to get ‘Roaring Thunder’ which went into his item inventory immediately. ‘Well, I’d better take it now just in case,’ Edward thought, ‘I ha
