Chapter 1106 The hustle and bustle of all kinds of big news in August

There were demons in the pirate holy land of Kadein Island, and it was not the two or three big cats in the past, but famous ones. In most legends, they can definitely serve as the ultimate villain. The mighty army of demons led by Glinal, one of the most powerful abyss lords in the abyss, the "burner" Glinal. In the past years, a small group of demons who occasionally appeared around the world could trigger destructive power that was close to natural disasters in the local area, not to mention an old abyss lord and a vast army of hundreds of thousands of demons. However, the speed of the coalition forces of the various countries arrived was "quick" so that everyone was stunned. After a great battle, the abyss lord fled in panic, and the demons were basically wiped out. Therefore, such a major event was only at the topic of talks between the citizens of Neosfia.

The masters and great figures of the "Inner World" may understand that this matter is far from over. What is the purpose of the demon army? Where did the runaway Glinal go? How did they come? Is the main plane protected by the world barrier really as safe as imagined?

However, all of the above has nothing to do with ordinary citizens. They just think the nearest sea is really wonderful.

However, as Lu Xi expected, a larger topic of discussion happened after this incident. The Federal high-speed warship, led by the well-known pirate leader, suddenly descended to another pirate base camp, which is also covered with a mysterious veil.

The existence of this city is not short, and it should have a history of nearly two hundred years. With the prosperity of Chenhai's maritime trade and the expansion of the pirate group, it has gradually developed. Now, it is said that it has a permanent population of nearly 100,000. Among the island cities in Chenhai, this is already a large city of considerable size.

The pirates traded, rested, consumed, and carnival. The princes and nobles and wealthy businessmen of the nations also deepened their tentacles into every part of the city, either for the treasures that were wandered into the black market, for the exchange of information, or for the private interaction with the pirates. Originally, the controllers of the black market were the rationalists and moderates in the Black Sea tribe and the Pakens, but now due to the influx of the forces of the nations, such a situation of intertwining the island. Therefore, everyone has almost made clear the location of the island, and it is also on a very busy route, but no country has launched a strike against it.

The city of Tatuga does not exist! The big men explained this to their subjects, but unfortunately few people believed it.

Thus, this led to the fact that the Federation was the first country to issue a military strike against this city where extrajudicialists gathered.

However, it must be said that this opportunity is indeed very clever. The main force of the four pirate kings outside Kadein Island and the Black Sea nomads did not understand why the big melee occurred. Both sides suffered heavy losses, and most of the surviving people were also captured by the coalition forces. Tatuga may be at the most unprepared moment in his history.

However, even so, the Pirate City had nearly 100,000 residents. The only five federal high-speed cruisers, including sailors, were only more than one thousand people... However, under the leadership of Misty Eyes, they still descended on Tatuga Island with a high, sub-zero or even arrogant attitude. Facts have proved that the lack of the "bandits" led by the leader will not be much better than the timid little citizens when facing the army. In just one hour of battle, Tatuga's weak resistance was completely disintegrated. Squinting, Brigadier General Dunboree Dandy Lain immediately announced to the nations the absolute sovereignty of the Natia Federation over Tatuga City and Tatuga Island.

This is a little bit embarrassing... Lu Xi really wants to know what the expression of the master's wife would look like at this time. Of course, there is still a time when there is a fight after this incident, but no matter what, the Federation was the first to announce sovereignty over this "borderless land", and it really took the lead.

However, it is conceivable that squinting eyes actually gained strong domestic support, and it is almost impossible at least this year or the first half of next year. You should know that at this time, the federal election has completely entered the white-hot stage, and various events have been spread to Neosfia bit by bit in the form of "big news".

You should know that the so-called "elected politics" does have such a problem. Every five years, the term of the Supreme Head of the Federation, that is, the chairman of the ruling committee, will end (unless the country is in a large-scale war at the national war level). At that time, all people with senators in the Senate will be qualified to compete for the position of the next Supreme Head of the People's Republic of China. But the problem is that the federal political system is a country ruled by the Magical Alliance, so there is no such very "bright and righteous" setting as the so-called candidates representing their respective political parties to run for election.

In fact, since the Academic Alliance has been nearly monopolized by the Austrian nobles in the past hundred years, the candidates for the chairman have been taken turns by the aristocratic families, which has almost become a farce. A civilian-born magician wants to reach a high position, either marry into a wealthy family or join the crowd, otherwise they will only live "excellent senior elite combat mage" and "good general" in their lives, but they will never want to master political resources in their lives. Until this year, Russell Clement emerged and seriously caused a sunny day in the encirclement of the aristocratic faction.

The federal campaign system is also very interesting. First, all the Senate who intends to compete for the Supreme Head of State submitted applications, and then the House of Representatives will determine the two final candidates after several rounds of voting to participate in the final competition. At this time, the decision of which of these two is the final winner is decided by all those with voting rights, that is, the federal citizens.

There is currently a total population of 35 million in the federal state, but it includes more than 20 million civilians and slaves. There are only 10 million citizens who have the right to vote (there are magicians among their direct relatives within three generations, with high tax records of more than 10 years, have served more than 5 years of military service for the federal government, or have made special contributions to the country). The basic foundation of these magicians rule the Federation, that is, the person who truly decides the highest head of state within 5 years...at least, this is nominally. Natya Sky Federation also uses this as a basis to prove the advanced nature of its political system, although it is directly criticized by Karin as a fool's politics.

The current final candidate, the leader of the powerful, the first Austrian family, the parents of the Violet family, and the current Minister of Interior, Lu Xi's "Seaweed Dad" Turner Vilanbart. As for the other person, it is natural that the first in the federal military department, the current Minister of Military Affairs, Russell Clement, was not surprised. As we all know, Russell will sooner or later compete for the high position of the head of state for his political ideals and to defeat the country's biggest borer. However, according to common sense, although the position of the Minister of Military Affairs is extremely high, usually ranked third or even second in the ruling committee, there is no room for improvement.

Perhaps everyone thinks that although the Minister of Military Affairs is a "civilian" in casual clothes, he is essentially more like a military uniform. If a soldier is chosen as the supreme head of state, wouldn't the Federation become a military government? No, no, this is not politically correct at all! Although everyone ignored it at this time, according to federal law, all the wizards are active or reserve soldiers of the Federation. In short, in federal history, no one has ever "transformed" successfully from the position of Minister of Military Affairs.

However, perhaps it is because Master Russell has made great achievements in leading everyone to win the war of the Undead, and perhaps his personality and integrity have really infected many conscientious federal representatives. He has indeed become the "soldier" and "civilian" who is most likely to become the head of state in the more than 400 years since the founding of the Federation.

But in the same way, we also know that once the election faces the masses, there will naturally be a situation where demons dance around and enjoy it. Anyway, in any era, there is nothing new under the sun.

So, in July when Russell became the candidate for the head of state, Natia's famous newspaper "Elichar Metropolis" swore: "The crime of bullying is 1213. In Valvak, Gloren, 34 witnesses proved that Mr. Russell Claremont was guilty of bullying and attempting to occupy a kelp farm. It was the only resource for a poor local widow and her 23 hungry orphans to survive. In order to make the other party submit, since Master Russell Claremont is now running for the head of state in front of everyone, he may be able to condescend to explain the following. As the great commander of the federal army, as a great master, as a prestigious magician, and also as an alternate to the head of the federal government, whether for himself or the great people who demand to vote for him, he has the responsibility to clarify the truth of the matter. Will he do this?"

"Bullying? What the hell is bullying?" Lu Xi asked Grant: "Is there such a crime in federal law?"

"No, Master, I have never heard of it." Grant, who had been upgraded from villager a to number one dog leg a, confirmed with confidence.

"In addition, what kind of widow can give birth to 23 orphans? Goblins? Is the kobold?"

"It seems that there is a kowtowish settlement outside Port Gloren? It's a lot of people. Gloren's custodian also hired them to dig moats and clear the silt at the harbor. This... should not be completely groundless."

"Oh, so that's it. The kobold also knows how to raise kelp. This is such an inspirational story!"

So, the "Heavenly Man Times", which is very influential among the middle class, said: "We need to find out whether the new chairman candidate is asked to explain the following small matter to citizens who are eager to vote for him? That is, when Master Carlemont was studying at Natia Central Magic Academy, the classmates who lived in the same dormitory with him would always lose a lot of small things, and later they were found in Master Clermont's body or "box" many things? And Master Clermont, who was only 12 years old at the time, was so angry that he relied on the magical talent given by the Goddess of the Sky and the truth of the Ancient Law, he actually beat a classmate who had raised objections to paralyzed. Now, we have found the granddaughter of the victim that year to correct him and have brought out tangible evidence. Our current military ministers commanded the army with such courage and majesty, right?"

"Oh, a 12-year-old classmate, paralyzed all over and now he has a granddaughter. It's indeed a miracle!" Lu Xi sighed.

"If the master's classmates are precocious, it is not impossible..." Grant said with a dry smile.

Then, when Master Russell faced the public's first speech in July, a large group of skin colors, appearances and even races were different. He was wearing tattered naughty kids rushed from the crowd to the podium, holding his legs and shouting "Dad", it was not surprising at all... Huh? Have you seen this scene somewhere?

In short, this is really too special to have a sense of visualization. When Lu Xi read the various newspapers that were delayed for a month before they were delivered to Neosfia, he couldn't help but feel deeply moved, thinking that there was nothing new under the sun, although these newspapers were really too big to die. After all, the times are not the chaebol behind the scenes. If you don't have to cherish the reputation of the ruling people, you won't really completely loosen the dog chains of the verbal gangs.

Not long after, these quite happy newspapers were more or less banned and inspected. After the digital editors were killed or (by) temporary workers, several newspapers finally issued apology statements tremblingly. This is a bit curious. You should know that the News Office, which manages the federal media newspapers and the Inspection Office, which maintains domestic public security, are actually under the jurisdiction of Shio Cai's internal affairs department.

"It is said that this is a resolution passed by the Senate. His Excellency Turner Verander Bart even went crazy in private, believing that using such despicable means and false rumors to attack a respected great magician and the highest military commander of the country would seem to have some results in a short period of time, but in the long run, it will only have a counterproductive effect." Grant said again.

"Madame Seaweed is a sensible person. The candidate for the Independent Party written by Twain is just a kind and upright, but cowardly and weak mediocre person, but Master Russell is a strong and powerful wizard who cannot win his will! There are many people who can do wet life in their hands. If Madame Seaweed doesn't do it first, and wait until Russell takes out a lot of slander and spread rumors, plus evidence that the aristocratic faction colludes with the media, then it will be really passive." Lu Xi said: "Madame Seaweed has more resources and more financial resources. However, there are too many teammates in the pig, and it is indeed unknown who will kill him in the end."

"This is also great. If Master Russell can become the head of state, the federation in the next five years should still be worth looking forward to." Grant smiled, and then asked in confusion: "But who is Twain? What is the Independent Party?"

"You are so naive! Young Grant! Can you change the status quo by becoming the chairman? I'm afraid it will be more painful and depressing than now? Reality is very difficult, and politics is not only difficult, but also very stinking." Lu Xi sighed, pondered for a moment, but signed a check of 10,000 gold mira and handed it to Grant: "Please hand this to Mr. Alan, the secretary of Master Russell!"

In fact, just like ordinary citizens, so much news is just a little bit of talk after dinner. Although he still receives a salary of hundreds of gold and allowances from the federal government every year, Lu Xi lacks a minimum sense of immersion in the achievements of "his own country" in expanding territory. Of course, the chaos in the federal election made him sweat for Master Russell, but he was more of a very interesting drama... a little funding is also the only thing he can do for the other party at present. I just hope that the other party will not treat this as a "bribe". Fortunately, although the other party is upright, he should not be the kind of obsessive-compulsive patient who can't stand a little sand in his eyes, right?

On the contrary, the news that Auckland is not very big made Lu Xi a little worried. In June, Karin, who had just ascended the throne, immediately reintegrated the Privy Council and then asked the (formerly) first prince of the empire, the Draxley family, the family of the Grand Duke of Longbao, to explain: Why were the griffin knight soldiers sent to Yongchen Palace? Why did His Highness Disaster female Duke attack Her Majesty Caterina in order to personally attack Her Majesty Caterina? Why did His Highness Disaster female Duke collude with cultists of unknown origin?

However, naturally, there was no response.

So, the rebels, led by the Privy Council chief and the Duke of Lancaster, immediately headed to Longbao, but the initial battle was not smooth. Subsequently, Her Majesty the world's No. 1 Queen changed her strategy of countering the rebels, mobilized nearly 200,000 troops to surround the territory of the Grand Duke of Longbao, and then adopted a strategy of step by step and slowly building the net.

This scene also has a sense of immediacy. However, if you lose, it is Sarhu, and if you win, it is the fifth time for Mr. Kaishen. It only depends on whether the generals from all walks of life can calm down... Lu Xi was indeed a little worried, so he wrote a letter, but soon received Karin's response "no matter what is going on," and repeatedly guaranteed in the reply that she "will be within the expectation of the queen", "will never take risks again", "will never leave Yongchen Palace and the imperial capital by next year".

"Why did Karin say that she would never leave Yongchen Palace and the imperial capital before next year?" Although Lu Xi felt a little confused, she felt relieved when she thought that although Her Majesty the world's No. 1 Queen often fooled people, but she didn't seem to have breached the contract for what she promised herself. At this time, the busy August ended in so many big news.

With the orders of several federal newspapers and media that died in the federal government were ordered to suspend business and rectify, the chaos in the federal government seemed to be about to calm down, and Captain Claire also left Neosfia with his new equipment. Now he has learned about the busy work in August. Although there is still a lot of work left, Lu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief. The schedule that was originally arranged was finally free, and he should have time to deal with another important matter... Well, this matter is not important to the country, not very important to society, nor to the future development plan of the Rotary Club and the guiding industry, but it is very important to Lu Xi.

However, in the end of this busy summer, I actually pushed all such important work to others. Even with Lu Xi's shame and lower limit, I still feel a little guilty.
