Chapter 238 - 238 The Uproar Before The Game (Part 2)
238 The Uproar Before The Game (Part 2)
There was a 12-hour time difference between the Freedom City of the Mieln Federation and the Central City of Yunmeng Kingdom. It was still 1 am on January 1st in Freedom City.
Walking in the most prosperous Times Square of the Freedom City, there were still neon lights everywhere and people surging. Countless young people were here to squander their beautiful youth.
It was the new year today, so there were many people here to celebrate the New Year.
At this moment, the disciples preparing for the competition must have adjusted their jet lag and fallen asleep. Ning Shi did not want to disturb them.
He strolled around Times Square with Hao Meng and celebrated New Year’s Eve with a couple.
The two of them bought a lot of things in the mall. Ning Shi bought most of the clothes, but he also bought some jewelry for Hao Meng. As for electronic products, he had experienced better ones in the Titanium Pole World and didn’t think much of them.
After walking around for a long time, Ning Shi was a little tired, so he pulled Hao Meng to sit down on the steps in the center of the square.
Looking at the stream of people coming and going, Ning Shi sighed, “Mengmeng, it seems that the Mieln Federation’s economy is particularly prosperous this year. Look at the endless stream of people. The mall is so popular, and most of them are smiling and have bought a lot of things.”
Hao Meng snuggled up to Ning Shi and said, “Yes, the Mieln Federation’s economy had been in a slump in recent years, and their position as the financial overlord is in jeopardy. However, everything changed after the world’s passage to the World of Moen.
“The Mieln Federation’s discovery of a foreign world was considered by the Western world to be a great event that surpassed the discovery of a new world by the Glen Tribe.
“As the World of Moen’s culture is closer to the Western world, the Western world is in a jubilant mood after the Mieln Federation announced that they would establish diplomatic relations with the Brad Empire.
“Everyone in the society is overjoyed and the morale of the people is greatly boosted. Under such emotions, the Mieln Federation’s economy miraculously revived and rapidly prospered.”
Ning Shi was speechless. This was the power of confidence.
Joseba had already followed Ning Shi’s instructions and did not give any substantial benefits in his dealings with the Mieln Federation.
However, the Mieln Federation’s publicity department described the future of the development of foreign worlds as very beautiful.
As a result, the entire society formed a consensus of confidence, and everyone believed that the future economy would improve.
The people were more willing to spend money, and enterprises were more willing to expand their scale of recruitment. Whether it was investment or consumption, everything began to prosper.
More importantly, the Mieln Federation’s stock market had risen all the way, attracting global capital to invest in the Mieln Federation market.
As a result, the Mieln Federation re-consolidated its position as the financial overlord.
With the influx of money, the Mieln Federation’s economy took off.
Seeing Ning Shi’s speechless look, Hao Meng smiled and said to him, “Brother Shitou, your goal is to control the world. You should have a bigger structure. It’s a good thing that the Mieln Federation is prosperous. The benefits they create will eventually go into your pocket.”
Ning Shi shook his head and explained, “It’s not that I’m not ambitious enough. It’s mainly because the Mieln Federation has done many bad things.
“They wantonly provoke war, bombard civilians, conduct biochemical virus research, control global public opinion, use the false values of democracy and freedom to beautify themselves, and provoke the internal peace of other countries. Who doesn’t know about these things? It’s very difficult for me to have a good impression of such a country.”
Hao Meng understood Ning Shi’s feelings. The Mieln Federation had been established for more than two hundred years and had only not launched a war for more than twenty years.
Any normal person would hate this country.
Just as Hao Meng was about to speak, the huge electronic screen in the Times Square building began to play the promotional video of the National Awakeners’ Competition.
In the promotional film, the reason for the world competition was first introduced.
The Yunmeng Kingdom was packaged as an evil clown and occupied the treasure that should not have been there – the awakening potion. Under the leadership of the Mieln Federation, countries around the world rose to resist this injustice.
In the end, the Mieln Federation broke through all the obstacles and pressure and won the right to compete fairly for all the countries in the world.
After that, the promotional video began to introduce the contestants from various countries.
Among them, the 10 contestants from the Mieln Federation were all bright and beautiful, and there were a lot of cameras.
Especially for the three seed contestants, who were given enough packaging and praise, and each of them was given a domineering title.
Darison of the Mickey Mountain described his earth-type special ability as endless as a mountain range, and it crushed his enemies.
Jenna, the Wings of Freedom. Her wind-type special ability was unpredictable, and she could advance and retreat at will.
There was a Young Goat called Delis, whose ability was unknown.
The promotional video deliberately hid his ability and gave him the title of a mountain goat to whet people’s appetites to the maximum.
In the Mieln Federation, the pinyin of the letters for mountain goats was the same as the first letter of the best in history. Therefore, the nickname Young Goat was generally used to describe the best in the history of a certain field.
Delis was known as a Young Goat. Although it was prefixed with the word young, the Mieln Federation’s confidence in him was evident.
At the end of the promotional video, the players from the Kingdom of Mies, Long Island, and other countries appeared. Although they did not receive special treatment, they all appeared normal.
When it was the Yunmeng Kingdom’s turn, the screen suddenly turned dark. The background music was as gloomy as if it had seen a ghost, and the voiceover and subtitles were also very unfriendly.
Luo Yao was short and small, so she was called the “little one who can be blown away by a single blow”. Jiang Bichao was tall and big, so he was called the “clumsy big guy”. As for Zong Shangren, because of his delicate and pretty appearance, the words “manless sissy” were typed out in the subtitles.
