Chapter 906: How civilized people conduct elections (seeking votes)
Weapons of mass destruction like this really cannot be possessed by one person or a small organization.
It's like putting mushroom bombs in the hands of a tyrant, because you don't know when he will suddenly go crazy, or if he is forced into the sewer pipe by the rebellious people with guns, he will jump over the wall. Take the mushroom bombs
He threw it around as if he didn't need money, planted it everywhere, and dragged the whole world to his funeral.
It is not that there are no such lunatics, on the contrary, there are many.
Therefore, the war fortress must be strictly controlled and handled with caution.
After a few old guys waited for a while, they couldn't help but began to argue in a low voice over the ownership of the war fortress. Gradually, the sound became louder and louder.
Listening to their noisy laughter, Lorraine felt her head hurt.
He smiled bitterly, then clapped his hands and said softly: "My lords and gentlemen, please be quiet."
Although his voice was not high, the people around him immediately closed their mouths, and all of them stared at Lorraine with their eyes wide open.
The eyes were all gleaming green, and Lorraine felt a chill when she saw them. If he had encountered this in the middle of the night, he might have thought he had encountered a pack of vicious wolves~!
These elites all have this kind of virtue. When they encounter a little benefit, they are like a vicious dog that bites a fleshy bone. Even if they are beaten to death, they will not let go.
But this is not surprising: I don’t know how to work hard for my own interests. That kind of idiot will either become a beggar or a slave, or his bones will be dismantled and used to boil oil. How can he have a chance to change his job?
, become an elite.
Among these people, Lester and St. Paul had the highest position and the most powerful abilities, but they were also the most violent.
At this time, they also ignored their dignity and kept winking at Lorraine and making various hints.
Not to mention that the two of them have high positions and extraordinary abilities, even after removing all official status, Lorraine still cannot afford to offend them.
One is Adele's grandfather, and the other is Hilmeria's father. If you offend that one, you will have to suffer when you go home. Otherwise, Lord Luo would have picked up the broom and used the dog-beating stick method to beat him.
These two old guys rushed out of the house.
Lorraine looked at them and coughed lightly, and then said: "Gentlemen, gentlemen, everyone calm down. It is not an option to continue arguing like this. There is a solution to everything.
What age are we in now? It’s extremely bad for us to still argue like this. It also hurts feelings.”
Lorraine paused for a moment, then continued: "We are all civilized people. We must talk about democracy and equality. I propose that we hold democratic elections to determine the ownership of the war fortress."
St. Paul struck his palms and burst into laughter.
He smiled and raised his hand and said: "Okay, that's good. Our Holy See is the most democratic. Let's elect, elect. We have one person, one vote. Vote collectively. Vote."
After saying that, he glanced at Lorraine with approval. This young man is still very discerning~!
You know, in order to respond to Lorraine, all the elite papal guards were deployed. There were hundreds of papal guards and ascetics outside alone. Even if they voted with their feet, the Holy See would win.
But Lester didn't get it for free.
Looking at St. Paul's smile with his molars exposed, I just thought about it briefly and already understood the fishiness behind it.
He rolled his eyes at St. Paul, snorted heavily, and said: "The Vatican is the most democratic person? This joke is so cold~!"
St. Paul was immediately furious and said: "What do you mean? Do you want to resist democracy? This shameful behavior is going backwards in the carriage of history. It is a barbaric behavior. It is simply a barbarian~!"
Listening to his big hats being put down one after another, Lester didn't care at all.
He smiled coldly and said: "It's okay to have an election. But let's determine the qualifications of the electors first, otherwise we may boycott the election."
As he spoke, he winked at Ohid next to him.
Oshed immediately understood and shouted: "That is, we must determine the qualifications of the electors. Don't think we don't know that every election of yours involves fraud.
For example, last time when you chose that or something, there were a hundred people in total, but they got 128 votes."
"Bah~!" St. Paul said disdainfully: "It seems that the elections at your mage headquarters are so clean. Believe it or not, I will expose all the secret operations you have done.
To tell you the truth, I also have an undercover agent in your place."
Everyone listened to the two gangs getting angry and exposing each other's secrets. They couldn't help but look at each other: It seems that these two gangs are not good birds. This place is still very dangerous. Let's hide and watch.
Forget it.
At this time, Lester and Ohid also looked at each other and smacked their lips in unison: These bald guys are actually playing with our Infernal Affairs? It seems that the Mage Association needs to conduct another serious review.
Lester coughed lightly and said vaguely: "No matter what else, let's clarify the election procedures. I propose that only the first people to board this war fortress are eligible to vote."
This immediately excluded St. Paul and the others, and in the Holy See, only Cardinal Obachm had the right to vote.
Ohid shouted from the side: "Agree, agree~!"
St. Paul rolled up his sleeves, glared and said anxiously: "You agree~! If we hadn't come to save you, you would have gone to sing with Poseidon."
"We can still run away without you~!"
"Just the two of you together are not enough for that old bone to rub with one finger."
"You launched a sneak attack from behind, and even so, you didn't injure the old man seriously. It doesn't seem to be too bad."
"..."
Seeing a few old men arguing again and again, Lorraine helplessly slapped his forehead and said: "Stop, stop, stop~!"
"Let me tell you something," Lorraine scanned the people in the room and found that basically all the people from the Rangers were here.
He smiled and said immediately: "Well, we drove the War Fortress together and protected it together, so everyone in this room is eligible to vote."
Lester moved his mouth and wanted to speak, but Lorraine said directly: "Anyone who has any objections will be disqualified."
Adele immediately glared at her grandpa. She saw that Lorraine's lips had lost all color and she was just trying to hold on. She was already impatient. She wished she could drive all these people out.
Lester is also a ruthless character who is not afraid of heaven and earth, but when he looked at his granddaughter with an unkind look in his eyes, he could only grin and said nothing.
"Okay, now the election begins." Lorraine said: "I hope to drive the war fortress to Fantino, raise your hand."
St. Paul and Obachm raised their hands and looked around expectantly, only to find that everyone was suddenly interested in the layout of the room.
Some are looking up at the ceiling, some are lowering their heads to study palm prints, and some are simply whistling and wandering around the room - are you kidding, now let us take a stand?
Although you are a veteran of the Holy See, if I dare to express my opinion, even my wife and children will blame me to death when I go back.
Lester and Oshed simply put their hands behind their backs and looked at St. Paul with a smile.
Saint Paul was so angry that his face turned black.
"Two votes." Lorraine snickered in her heart, knowing that this was the result, but her face remained calm. If St. Paul saw him gloating about his misfortune, the old guy would have to tell him in front of Hilmeria when he went back.
Bad words.
"Raise your hands if you agree to go to the mage headquarters." Lorraine said.
Lester and Oshed immediately raised their hands quickly.
People around him were still studying the ceiling and floor.
The people here are all elites, not only skilled in skills, but also smart in brains. Although Lester and Ohid are lip-syncing and winking to canvass votes just after returning from school, no one will make such political mistakes.
of.
"What? It's such a big fuss. I thought you were sure of victory, but it turns out it's only two votes." St. Paul said in a strange tone on the side.
Lorraine saw many people showing sinister smiles of victory, which made her feel proud.
It can be seen that whether it is the Holy See or the mages, they are used to being domineering and arrogant, and they are not popular at all. Everyone rarely catches a chance, and they all trap them to death.
Lorraine smiled, and then mentioned the names of several countries, including the elves, but only one or two people raised their hands each time.
"Raise your hands in agreement with the Ruman Empire." The last thing Lorraine ordered was the Ruman Empire.
"I, I." Leo raised his hands and shouted, jumping on his feet, then jumped on a chair, faced the roar of the crowd, put one hand on his hips and raised his fist, and made a classic speech pose of the head of state, shouting.
Said: "Anyone who votes to support our Ruman Empire, handle Ruman immigration procedures without a visa, get money, houses, and women after settling in, one is not enough to get two.
And give away a full set of souvenirs of the Demon Tribe Adventure produced by Flying Eagle Company, each of which is exquisite and rare.
What are you waiting for? Raise your hands and vote!
The top three voters will also receive double bonuses, so vote quickly."
Three people below raised their hands to support Leo. Lorraine laughed when he saw it, because these three were all Ruman people.
Four votes, twice as much as the others. Although it is not satisfactory, it is already the highest number of votes, and the voting has ended.
Leo looked at Lester and St. Paul with a victorious expression, put his hands on his hips, raised his belly, and laughed loudly: "This is called a fight between a tiger and a lion, and the hunter gets the advantage. In the end, I won~
!”
St. Paul smiled cunningly and said leisurely: "Protest, bribery and canvassing for votes, go against the spirit of the election, and demand the cancellation of the election results of Representative Leo."
Lester nodded quickly and said: "The election was fraudulent and the results will not be recognized."
Obachm smiled and said: "I agree, I am opposed to vote bribery."
Others followed suit and shouted, "Agree to plus one."
"Second."
"support."
"top."
"Ah?" Leo was immediately dumbfounded.
Seeing that almost everyone was against him, he stamped his feet anxiously and said: "You...you...why? You didn't say you couldn't canvass votes.
Besides, didn’t I succeed? These four votes all belong to our Ruman Empire.”
Saint Paul gave Leo a contemptuous look, meaning "Is this your first day out?"
Lester also sighed and said: "The fact of vote bribery has already existed. No matter what the result is, it violates the election rules. You must be disqualified from the election."
Lorraine secretly thought: A few old foxes have been holding back their tricks for a long time, waiting to resist the election results that are unfavorable to them. These old guys are good at political struggle, and have been proven to be thick and dirty politicians for many years.
The so-called fair election is a joke to them.
St. Paul slapped Leo on the butt, drove Leo off the chair, and said with a smile: "Boy, play with us, you are still young. Wait until you are your father's age."
"
Leo knew that he had been tricked by a few old guys again. He immediately puffed up his cheeks angrily and looked at them. He said angrily: "You... you..."
But when he saw those old guys all looking at him with smiles, he could only stamp his feet heavily in the end and said: "You are so cruel~! Let's see~!"
As he said that, he jumped down from the chair and walked to the side, holding his arms there, staring at a pair of big black and bright eyes, just waiting for the opportunity to cause trouble for them.
Lorraine pouted: He is still a little too young now. At best, he is just a little gangster. How can he not suffer from these old gangsters?
He was still thinking about driving the war fortress back to his hometown of Fort Lorraine.
Stop at your doorstep and build a theme park, a triple-A scenic spot. If you want to see it, you have to buy tickets. If you buy the entrance ticket, you have to buy a first-floor ticket, and a second-floor ticket...
Low input and high output, you can make a lot of money.
But Lorraine knew that he was no match for the three old foxes put together.
If he wants to drive the war fortress back to Ruman, these old guys will definitely mess around with him, even if he calls the high priest of the undead to fight, there will be no result.
At this time, Lorraine already had an idea and said slowly: "Now that it's all said and done, let me make a suggestion."
He paused for a moment, and then said: "I propose that we drive the War Fortress to Maple Leaf Danlin College."
Several old guys lowered their heads and thought for a moment, then looked at each other and saw each other's attitude.
Lorraine looked at their expressions and said with a smile: "Maple Leaf Danlin is a neutral area, where the Three Saints resisted the demons. It has great historical significance.
Moreover, it is not far from the Ruman Empire, Fantino and the mage headquarters. It can be said that the location is impeccable.
The most important thing is that our United Nations headquarters is still there, and each country can also send representatives to participate in the study of war fortresses and formulate development plans for war fortresses. It is also fair to all countries."
Obachm first responded to Lorraine's suggestion and said: "This is a good idea. This can avoid unnecessary quarrels and squeeze out time to do practical things. Maple Leaf Danlin's scientific research strength is also very strong."
In fact, both St. Paul and Lester had this idea, but the first thing everyone thought of was to seek the best interests for themselves.
When the greatest benefit cannot be achieved, we will settle for the next best thing.
Lester followed up with support and said: "I have no objection, Maple Leaf Danlin is better."
Lester also knew in his heart that it would be more beneficial to him to place the war fortress in Maple Leaf Danlin than to place it in the mage headquarters.
Because Maple Leaf Danlin is Lester's old territory, and the old guy is domineering there and says the same thing.
In the mage headquarters, "The Forbidden Curse Mage, the hero who penetrated into the demon clan, the occupier of the war fortress, the greatest mage in history, one of the greatest, the challenger of the undead high priest - Bracket, came back alive, Bracket - what?
Magister Lester, who is "extraordinary", will definitely be envied by many of his peers.
I don't know how many people's eyes turned green.
If it were to be located in the mage headquarters, there would be quite a few barking beasts there. And all of them would be loud, howling beasts.
When the time comes, there will probably be quite a few brats jumping out to take credit from Lester, ostracize him, or hold him back.
But in Maple Leaf Danlin, Heng Heng, to put it bluntly, it's a dragon, you lie down for me, it's a tiger, you lie down for me, there, Lester is the boss.
Lorraine is such an awesome person, but Lester just wanted to protect his precious granddaughter and let him graduate early, so he proposed Maple Leaf Danlin.
But Lester is a mage after all, and his sense of self-consciousness as a mage makes him have no choice but to mention the mage headquarters first, otherwise he will become the public enemy of all mages.
Lorraine's proposal was exactly what he wanted, and Lester kept saying "agree, agree".
"Why do you agree? I don't agree~!" But Oshed quit and shouted loudly.
The human relations of the great wizard Ohid, and his registered residence at the mage headquarters. He is a black eye in Maple Leaf Danlin, and no one knows him.
At the mage's headquarters, he was able to pull together a group of students, disciples, and senior brothers to devote themselves to the research on the war fortress and take the initiative in the entire plan. As a result, he became famous throughout the ages and became a famous figure in the history of magic.
But in Maple Leaf Danlin, he knows other people, who knows who he is?
The relationship between Maple Leaf Danlin magicians and the mage headquarters has not been very good. Maple Leaf Danlin called the guys in the headquarters a fool. The headquarters scolded Maple Leaf Danlin for not doing his job properly.
When the two groups saw each other, they were all very jealous. If they fought, it would be more fierce than fighting with the priests.
If he goes to Maple Leaf Danlin, he might be given the title of consultant and just be a spectator.
But this reason cannot be put on official terms.
Ohid rolled his eyes, and then said seriously: "Everyone, I believe that you all know that Maple Leaf Danlin's talent strength is not as strong as that of the mage headquarters, especially space spells, which is Maple Leaf Danlin's weakness.
Therefore, placing the war fortress in the Maple Leaf Forest affects the speed of construction. In the future, if there is a war, I don’t know how many lives will be lost..."
When he said this, he shook his head repeatedly. The look on his face that was concerned about the country and the people, and so upright, made people look at him in awe.
As a colleague of Oshed, Lester had already guessed the little bit in his heart - the person who hates you the most is your colleague, but the one who understands you is also your colleague.
Lester pulled Oshed's sleeve and whispered: "Come on, let's talk."
I winked at Lorraine and Obachum, and they followed suit with understanding.
St. Paul muttered: "It's mysterious. It's not a good thing."
Lester pulled them away from the crowd and hid in a corner, saying: "Oshid, we have a life-long friendship. You know better than me what the virtues of those guys at the headquarters are.
I won’t tell you more. In Maple Leaf Danlin, the entire project is still led by you. We appointed you as a tenured professor at Maple Leaf Danlin College. I will let you come to whomever you need. Whatever you need, I will give it to you.
something.
We will carve your statue in the middle of the council chamber."
Ohid is somewhat moved, and the tenured professor of Maple Leaf Danlin can be very important.
Seeing his appearance, Lester smiled slightly and added fire.
"Our college is full of 10-year-old girls, as fresh as spring onions. As a professor, if something goes wrong, can you pay more attention to their ideological work? Let's talk to female lecturers and female professors in various departments.
Work situation, exchange new experiences..."
Ohid said simply: "Deal. Of course, I am not doing this to teach female students or exchange experiences with female professors. I am doing this for the benefit of all mankind."
What Ohid said was aboveboard and upright.
Seeing bad things is contagious. This old man has only been around Lorraine and the others for a long time, and his political and eloquence values have skyrocketed.
Lorraine and the other three said seriously: "We all know this."
Obham smiled and said: "Master Ohid's dedication is worthy of admiration."
Oshed's old face turned red, and Lorraine and the others couldn't help laughing.
Ohid immediately made up his mind to take this opportunity to send all his granddaughters to the academy. Firstly, to study, and secondly, to find a better ruffian than Lorraine, who will envy those bastards in the future.
.
St. Paul saw a few of them walking back and said, "Okay?"
"Okay," Lorraine said, "Oshid has agreed."
St. Paul shook his head with a joking expression and said: "Okay, let's go to Maple Leaf Danlin."
Although the Holy See did not benefit from this, it also had nothing to lose, so he simply agreed.
The huge threat of demons and undead was there, and he had no time to waste words.
What's more, in the academy, the Holy See accounts for one-third of the power, and the war fortress cannot be separated from the control of the Holy See.
The four old guys reached an agreement, turned around and looked back at everyone, saying: "Who has different meanings?"
Everyone shook their heads at the same time. They were stared at by the bosses of mages and priests at the same time. They were under great pressure. Anyway, they had done their best.
St. Paul said simply: "Well, unanimously approved, let's set off for the Maple Leaf Danlin."
St. Paul sent the silver-winged Pegasus of the Papal Guard to inform the mages and the Ruman Empire to gather for a meeting in the Maple Leaf Danlin. At the same time, he prepared magic crystals on the way forward.
War Fortress adjusted its direction slightly and roared towards Maple Leaf Danlin.
