758 Chapter 796: Shock (Part 2)
When the news reached the Goudan, Li Goudan was still lying calmly on the deck. He didn’t even blink his eyes. His attitude was very clear: “It’s none of my business…”. …
It had been three days since they left the icy domain. The speed of the Goudan was naturally not comparable to the sailing ships or old-fashioned steam engine ships of the natives of the western islands. With the old captains who had been brought out from the icy domain, they knew the way, with the correct route, according to the forecast, they should not arrive at the western islands for more than ten days.
The thought of being able to arrive at the destination in ten days and see different customs and customs made dog egg’s heart bubble with joy…
As for the City Lord’s preliminaries in the main base, what did it have to do with her. Anyway, this dog egg was not going to participate in the selection… …
However, when this news reached the ears of Lei Xue and Wang Ye who were traveling with them, it was no different from a sudden clap of thunder! ! !
Having been here for so long, through the comparison of their intelligence, the two of them could almost guess what kind of existence the main base city was. It had absorbed a new population.., the players’genetic surgery, the growth of new players, and the training were almost all completed in that city. What did such a city’s management authority represent. One could even imagine how important the person who became the city Lord would be in the international community…
As a developer, Lei Xue reacted much faster than Wang Ye. She instantly woke up from her shock and began to analyze the message that the system had sent.
Firstly, the city Lord was very important. If what was said in the message was true, then this city lord had extremely important strategic significance!
This could be seen from the authority that the system announced. Firstly, the construction rights could directly start new construction projects. According to the intelligence that she had gathered previously, many of the projects in the base city were contracted by the players, once the construction rights were in their hands, wouldn’t the city lord be the one to decide who would be the contractor?
Management Rights: needless to say, all kinds of projects and benefits could be biased to their own people to the greatest extent.
The most ridiculous thing was the legislative rights. If they met someone who did not care about their face and was a little more ruthless, they could make a racial citizenship law and directly divide the benefits according to their racial class. The players from other countries might not even have a place to cry at that time.
As for their face? Hehe, with the righteousness of the nation in front of them, who would care about those useless things?
At the thought of this, Lei Xue’s gaze immediately turned cold. She thought to herself, no, this city lord must not fall into the hands of foreigners!
At the thought of this, she quickly analyzed the short message from the system… …
The message said that the castellan selection would choose a player from over 40 countries that had opened up the passage, which meant that the selection was not based on the player’s level.
After all, if the selection was based on the player’s level, there was no need to say the previous words, because it was impossible for any overseas player to surpass the Huazhong players in terms of level. According to Wang Ye’s information, the most powerful private player in the New World already had a private city and a population of over 100,000!
In other words, everyone might have a chance…
This was not good news. In that case, the Huazhong Players’advantage would be gone… …
Finally, there was the last sentence at the end of the message: “We will announce the nominees later.”This sentence made lei xue very concerned.
Nominees? From the words, it should mean that not everyone could participate in the election, but they had to pass the nomination first.
Then what were the criteria for the nomination? Who would decide? The so-called Luofu sect master? Or was it the candidates nominated by the LUOFU high-level factions?
Lei Xue remembered that the Xuanji sect master, Qin Xuanji, had said in the intelligence report that there were overseas forces in the Luofu high-level faction. In other words, if the nomination was proposed by the Luofu high-level faction, then there would definitely be overseas people nominated this time…
At the thought of this, Lei Xue’s heart was in turmoil!
“What’s Wrong?”Li Goudan seemed to have noticed Lei Xue’s abnormal expression. He could not help but pinch the other party’s face and ask, “What’s wrong? You look constipated…”
Lei Xue:”…”
What did the way he was deep in thought have to do with constipation?
“Are you very excited to know that we are going to reach our destination in ten days?”Li Goudan chuckled and said, “You are looking forward to it, right?”? “I’ve heard the old captains talk about the customs of the western islands for the past two days, and I feel that it’s quite interesting, do you know?”? “There’s a country where the status of women is extremely high. The husband only has the right to ask the bride to sleep with him on his wedding night. After this day, if he wants to climb into the woman’s bed, he has to get the consent of the other party. Moreover, he can’t care about the other party’s usual relationship with other men. Damn, do you dare to think about such a custom?”
Lei Xue:”…”
What’s with the look of anticipation on your face? Can’t you see that the face of the guy next to you has turned green?
Of course, the Elf Ball, Wang Ye, is usually green as well…
“Captain…”Lei Xue hesitated for a moment before asking, “When… when can I go back next time?”
“Ah?”Li Goudan didn’t expect the other party to ask this, tilting his head, he thought for a moment before saying, “It will take us ten days to reach the western islands. We must first establish good diplomatic relations here and try our best to establish trade relations with a few large countries. We must also try our best to gather as many mages as possible. You must know that the mages here are very precious. It will be a little difficult for us to sneak them back without being discovered, so I’m afraid it will take a lot of time. I estimate that it will take at least three months!”
Lei Xue immediately frowned…
Three months, the daylily had gone cold! !
“Is there any way to make me go back early?”Lei Xue asked carefully.
Li Goudan glanced at her, he said lazily, “I still want to. Do you think I don’t want to go back and eat Wang Goudan’s barbecue from time to time? I still miss my mother, but what’s the use of thinking? “This ship doesn’t have a teleportation function, you know that, right? “You can’t possibly ask us to sail the ship back for you, right?”
Lei Xue was instantly speechless…
Actually, if it was possible, she would naturally want to participate in this voyage opening mission seriously and happily. She also liked this place. She also wanted to easily see the western island countries that the old captain mentioned. She wanted to see all kinds of local customs…
But she couldn’t do it at this time… She couldn’t enjoy everything here with the attitude of an adventurer like Li Goudan. …
“Actually, it’s not that we can’t go back…”Li Goudan suddenly said.
“En?”Lei Xue’s heart shook, and she immediately looked at him.
Li Goudan smiled and said, “Actually, there’s something I didn’t tell you. After the surgery, the backup brain will be in the main base. Once the body is damaged, the data will be immediately sent back to the base.”
Lei Xue was stunned, and she looked at the other party in shock, “You mean… that we… won’t die here?”
“Under normal circumstances, it doesn’t seem like it…”. “…”Li Goudan scratched his chin and said, “But the side effects are very big. For example, for me, I spent a lot of energy to possess my current body and strength. If I were to be reborn, I would have to start all over again and become like him…”. “…”as he said that, he pointed at Wang Ye, who was still in the elf ball.
Lei Xue was instantly stunned. There was such a technique?
“Lei Xue…”. “…”Li Goudan said faintly, “You’re a newbie. It’s not a pity for you to be reborn. After all, you’ve only been here for less than a month, and your body hasn’t evolved much. However, you have to know that once you choose to return, this voyage will have nothing to do with you “…”. “…”
“Thank you, Captain! !”Lei Xue immediately bowed in excitement.
The other party had made such a straightforward choice. Li Goudan immediately pursed his lips, appearing a little unhappy. He had originally planned to ignore the other party, however, after thinking for a moment, he still bit his lips and said, “Next Time… you can not miss work. Otherwise, this captain will fire you!”
Lei Xue was stunned. Then, she revealed her heartfelt gratitude and once again bowed deeply!
