It is true that the long-eared intelligent species are warm and friendly, but that is basically limited to their compatriots. Their attitude towards non-elf intelligent species other than Li Lin, especially humans, will not be so friendly.
"It doesn't matter who you are, what your origin is, and what race you are. The important thing is how you do it and whether you work hard for it. What should be the dominant ideology of this city, let you have a good experience today."
Roland felt his shoulders being held and raised his head. The young man was afraid of any danger and his confident smile looked particularly bright, as if he was saying that someone's child was going to be unlucky.
In order to let Roland see the whole picture of Alfheim, the black dragon circled twice and then slowly landed towards the central square in front of the white palace, where many elves had gathered spontaneously.
There were many naughty children climbing on the linden tree in Unter den Linden. There were also toddlers learning to talk riding on the shoulders of their parents. More elves and men and women stretched out their hands to the sky and burst into loud cheers.[
Since Agen Tolatun became the legal residence of elves, the total population of Alf Sea, as a political, economic, and industrial center, has exceeded 150,000. At this moment, there are at least tens of thousands of elves gathered in the square.
A large number of citizens came from other streets, and the tsunami of cheers from the surging crowd almost knocked Roland off the dragon's back.
Before the untimely show came out, Li Lin hugged Roland and jumped off the dragon's back neatly. Watching Li Lin's every move with concentration, the background called "Crowd" suddenly burst into even more enthusiastic and loud cheers.
In response to this heat wave that was on the verge of going crazy, Li Lin raised his left arm. The heat that condensed countless noises and thoughts temporarily retreated, and with the sound of sucking in air, the heat began to continue again.
Roland understands.
Li Lin not only bears the reverence and love of the elves, but also bears the extremely dangerous hope and attention.
A hero will not disappoint the public; a hero will not disappoint the public.
The focus was changed to the king, to the hero in the eyes of the elves - Li Lin, the same thing.
In response to an expectation that had accumulated over a thousand years of time density and was more fanatical than religious belief, Li Lin raised the thing tied around his waist.
It has a gold base, decorated with red francs, and a gorgeous scabbard with curly vine patterns painted on it. Above it is a sword hilt of the same texture and uncompromising luxury.
All the enthusiasm was concentrated on the unsheathed sword, and all the trembling eyeballs were caught by the sword that could not be imagined as a weapon.
"Gram!"
Breaking through the surprise and shock, a young elf in a cadet uniform shouted the name of the sword, and his stagnant thinking was activated.
"Gram!"
"The Sword of Glory and Kingship!!"
"Symbol of the Kingdom!!"
"The Colonel retrieved Gram!!"
The fragments of passionate emotion spread rapidly like ripples, gradually becoming louder and louder, until in the end even complete sentences could not be uttered, turning into the roar of a tsunami and huge waves.
"Gram! Gram!"
"Colonel! Colonel!"[
"Gram!! Gram!!"
"Colonel!! Colonel!!"
burst into tears;
beam with joy;
Whether they are crying or jumping for joy.
The tens of thousands of elves in the square who were possessed by [Blind Obedience] and [Fanasia] all showed dazed expressions at this moment. There was no trace of [Self] in their eyes with a layer of mist.
Men, women, the elderly, children.
They only looked at Li Lin and Gram, and only Gram and Li Lin in their eyes.
There is no preset stage in the central square. But at this moment, the actor's strength is tested more than any gorgeous stage. Roland, who plays the role of "standing foil", feels suffocated in the face of the aftermath of physical pressure, and it becomes difficult to maintain a standing posture.
【It's just...just like climbing up a snow-capped mountain.】
The cheers contained some kind of substance that was about to explode. The temperature in the square continued to rise, and some citizens even fainted, but the dangerous and warm atmosphere was not affected at all.
In the unusual heat wave, Li Lin raised the King's Sword high, calmly bearing the heat that had been limited and amplified by his long-term despair, and greeted the citizens with a relaxed smile.
——Is this the charm of [King] and the trust the elves have in Li Lin?
Silently looking at the crowd of elves who were crowded and on the verge of losing control. With the only question in his mind that was thinking about his feelings, Roland was held by Li Lin and walked like a puppet on the red carpeted avenue.
##################
The Council Hall is the core room of the entire Council Building. Some bills are passed or received here every day, and then handed over to various administrative departments for implementation. This white domed building can be said to be the center of the entire Alfheim and even Argento.
The center of power of Raton.
——At least on the surface.
The guards in charge of security, the janitors who clean the rooms, the clerks who compile the files, the workers in the factories, the farmers in the wheat fields, and the students in the schools all know that the council is just complaining about the bills and occasionally picking out the eggs.
It is an annoying organization with no bones. The one who truly holds the real power and leads the development of Alfheim is the Supreme Commander of the Defense Force and his staff.
Although speaking from a traditional emotional point of view, the elves are not very interested in the military intervening in government affairs and forming a de facto military government. However, formal emotions will always give way to reality, allowing a young leader who has always been proactive and outstanding in performance to take charge.
Government, no matter what, is better than running a country with a bunch of decrepit people who can argue for three days over trivial matters.
What everyone desires is a powerful country that can protect the safety and dignity of all elves and achieve prosperity on this basis. As for what kind of philosophy that country upholds and what kind of system it adopts...
In the eyes of the elven citizens, who are always worried about the invasion of human armies and ruining their current good life, this is just a topic that can be discussed.
Only those who are driven crazy will have followers to echo such rhetoric as "Give me freedom or give me death". With the efforts of Li Lin and the ruling team, the unemployment rate is almost zero, and various factories are operating in three shifts day and night.
Alfheim, an industrial and commercial city that can barely meet production capacity targets, has a real impact on classical democracy.
Due to the lack of interest, the conservatives are trying to propagate the story of the ancient Gilmanian Senate and the republican market dominated by the elite oligarchy, which has not been successful. Instead, it is based on the current military-industrial symbiosis with the super genius Li Lin as the core.
The ambitions of the authoritarian system currently have no chance.[
[Core Colonel], [King Behind the Scenes], [Shadow Ruler] - some clues can be seen from Li Lin's nicknames. The guards guarding the Senate Building were full of honor and joy from the bottom of their hearts, respectfully
This is something they have never experienced when facing the elders every day. It is self-evident who holds the real power and prestige.
ps: Quiz Little Theater
Li Lin: Hmm, welcome to Alfheim.
Nidhogg: Although it is an unprecedented city in Wilt, why does the word "White Palace" have such a strong sense of immediateness?!
Li Lin: Whoosh! How about calling it [Bai Family Courtyard] according to the local translation?
Nidhogg: What a waste of earth...
