Chapter 122 The shy girl invites you to taste the cream cake
Inside the city hall.
"So, boss, are you sure you don't need us to stay and help you?" Mu looked at Li Cheng.
"Yes, Brother Li Cheng, this is already the 7th level secret realm..." Karenina bit her lip.
How could I let you guys do me a disservice? If you don't leave, I'll probably refine you as well... Li Cheng smiled warmly: "Go back, it's too dangerous here."
"But..." Karenina wanted to say something.
Mu patted her shoulder and said, "Just listen to the boss and trust him. We can't help much here now."
"I..." Karenina's throat moved, and finally she nodded: "I understand."
"But, Brother Li Cheng, I will catch up with you as soon as possible. Next time, I won't let you face the abyss alone. I promise!"
"Okay, I'm looking forward to it."
"Ah."
Karenina nodded, and opened the door to the World Tree with the other candidates.
After leaving here, their memories will be sealed, and they will no longer remember what happened here, only subconscious impressions will remain.
Mu was the last to leave.
He stood in front of Li Cheng, with his hands behind his back: "Boss Li Cheng, I must admit that I am not as good as you in exploring secret realms."
"Then what?" Li Cheng raised his eyebrows. He couldn't figure out what this little guy was trying to do.
"But you have to admit it." Mu sneered, raised a finger, and said calmly: "When it comes to cheating your father, you are not as good as me."
Li Cheng: …
Mu looked around and made sure that no one was around before approaching Li Cheng and carefully taking something out of his arms: "I stole this from my father, Boss Li Cheng, carry it with you."
"You... stole your father's underwear?" Li Cheng asked puzzledly.
"Hmm? Ahem, I got the wrong one." Mu Gan coughed twice, put his underwear back, and took out a small shield: "This is a relic that my father used when he was young. If it weren't for this thing, he would have been beaten to death with his pretentious personality."
"Oh?" Li Cheng took the shield.
This thing is golden all over and only as thick as a wrist. It is more like a wrist guard than a shield.
[Shield of the Dark Crawling (Epic):
[This relic was used by the God of War Bass in his early years. After many improvements, he placed hundreds of earth-attributed rune spells in it.]
[When you are lying or prone on the ground, your defense will increase tenfold. ]
[When you don't maintain this posture, the only effect of this relic is to blind others with its golden color. ]
"This shield..." Li Cheng smacked his lips twice.
It was mentioned in the background story that in his early years, the God of War Bass was young and frivolous, and often lay on the ground and fought with others.
So lying down is not for showing off, but to trigger the special effects of the relic, right?
It's a serious game...
"In short, Boss, you must survive." Mu patted Li Cheng's shoulder, restrained his expression, and said solemnly: "I am still looking forward to meeting you at the top."
His appearance made Li Cheng feel dazed.
When will this little one be able to look like a paladin?
“Then I’m leaving.” Mu nodded, turned around, and threw his robes: “Boss, we’ll have more over there—Ahhhhh, hoolulu!”
Before he could finish his words, Mu's left foot tripped over his right foot, and he fell flat on his face. His whole body spun like a Hot Wheels and rushed into the gate of the World Tree.
The candidates who had just walked in the door heard the roar coming from behind, and as soon as they turned their heads, they showed expressions of fear.
Memories of the dead come flooding back.
Holy shit, a three-faced monster ball?!
Listening to the screams of the crowd, Li Cheng was silent for two seconds, then slowly closed the door and showed a sunny smile.
"Well, very energetic!"
"Now that things have come to this, let's run for election!"
There are still 34 hours until the Witch of Rebirth returns to the City of Deception.
What he had to do was very simple, that is, to run for the position of Chief Speaker within this time, burn the City of Fraud to ashes, and activate the National Refinement Formation in advance! -
Dusk had arrived, and the sound of the magic radio echoed over the city filled with flames.
"Good evening, City of Fraud!"
"The final result of this morning's report feast is 3000! Thanks to the half-demons for putting aside the facts, there are more than demon law enforcement officers hanged in the Civic Square alone; Oh, by the Mother Goddess of Fraud, I think this city no longer belongs to the demons!"
"Half-demons, drive these bastards of the demon clan out of this city!"
The half-demons had already gone crazy after so many days of free purchases, coupled with the connivance and protection of the city hall.
There are few sane half-demons left in this city.
Even conservatives think the extremists are too conservative.
Their slogan has also evolved from "Protect the legitimate rights and interests of half-demons" to "Overthrow the tyranny of the demons, the abyss belongs to the half-demons!"
Under the guidance of such slogans and with the help of Mayor Christian, the population ratio of half-demons and demons in the City of Fraud finally reached 1:1, while the total population, in contrast, was less than %.
Flocks of abyss vultures circled over the city. They had never lived such a wealthy life.
Can you believe that you can’t even finish eating the corpse?
Sitting in the office on the top floor of City Hall, Li Cheng smiled warmly as he looked at the most chaotic city in history.
"Sir." Christine bowed and said, "We have followed your instructions and controlled the population ratio to 1:1, but..."
"But what?" Li Cheng tilted his head slightly.
"But those disgusting half-demons don't even know how to appreciate your kindness. Instead, they say things like 'Wuxiang is also a demon, he should get out of the City of Fraud', 'We have never known Wuxiang, Wuxiang is not our leader at all' and other such cutting remarks."
Christine clenched her fists in anger.
"So they're not going to vote for me?"
"That's right. Not only that, they also plan to nominate one of their own as the chief speaker and become the master of the City of Fraud." Christine handed the support rate form to Li Cheng.
As expected, besides himself, there was another familiar person on the list of candidates for the Chief Speaker -
The one who wrote the "speechless incident" before was a black-skinned female "succubus" who was 1 meters tall and weighed 5 kilograms.
At this moment, she has become the opinion leader of the half-demons.
The Chief Speaker's approval rating has reached 49.8 percent.
Li Cheng's support rate is less than 1 percent.
These people are naturally the City Hall and Vivian and others.
"Sir, these people are so hateful. It was with your help that they achieved such a high position." Christine was so angry: "Sir, what should we do now?"
"Don't feel so burdened, Christine." Li Cheng smiled indifferently.
If desire and power are not restrained, such consequences will inevitably occur.
This group of extreme half-demons,
When their number accounts for 10%, they will say that the demons are doing the right thing and will try to adapt to the life of the demons;
When their number reaches 30%, they will accuse the demons of some behaviors and ignore the rights of half-demons;
When their number reaches 40 percent, they will begin to accuse the demons of having demon gaze and not taking their feelings into consideration.
When their number reaches 50 percent, they will openly carry out team building, blasting, reporting, and cross-dressing to demand that the government fully listen to their opinions, and stigmatize the demons in all aspects, using the sentence pattern of "I am a demon and I also xxx" to drive the demons out of the city of fraud.
Fortunately, Li Cheng had no intention of winning over this group of half-demons. He just wanted to burn the city to ashes.
"But, sir, if you continue like this, your goal will be..." Christine hesitated.
"It's just a matter of increasing the support rate. What's so difficult about that?" Li Cheng looked at her. "Since the half-demons and demons are unwilling to support me, then I'll just kill them all."
"But sir, we can't get around the fraud law." Christine frowned. She had already thought of the solution of "killing them all".
But the City of Fraud has strict rules and restrictions on the City Hall. It doesn't matter if it targets a few people on a small scale, as long as it pays a small price.
But if you want to carry out large-scale massacres, you must abide by the law.
Otherwise, there would be no need for Li Cheng to incite the riots. He could just let the city hall lead people to suppress it.
Currently, the "Anti-Half-Demon Discrimination Law" promulgated by Li Cheng has basically blocked the route of "killing them all".
If we want to re-legislate, we need to gather enough members of parliament.
The congressmen are almost dead now, where can they find people to hold meetings...
Christine, who noticed all this, was really furious. At this moment, she hated those ungrateful half-demons.
In her opinion, what Li Cheng is doing now is part of the Regeneration Witch plan.
Now that Li Cheng’s support rate is so low, his hope of becoming the chief speaker has almost been declared dead. Doesn’t this mean that the witch’s plan has failed?
This was something Christine could never allow.
But no matter how angry she was, Christine couldn't think of a way to turn the situation around.
"Haha, of course I know that the law has limitations, but it doesn't matter, just bypass the limitations." Li Cheng smiled and took out a note: "Christine, find a way to pass the words on this paper to the demons." "Words?" Christine opened the note, took a look at it twice, and his pupils were stunned.
There was only one sentence written on the paper:
"Who are you to assume my race?"
It took Christine half a minute to figure out what this sentence, which sounded like the whisper of an ancient god, meant.
At the same time, she looked at Li Cheng with even more respect.
As expected of Lord Ominous, he came up with a way to deal with "half-demon political correctness" in one go.
Yes, the half-demons said that the demons discriminated against them.
The demons can also say that they are not demons!
"It's a forbidden spell, no doubt about it. This is definitely a forbidden spell-level magic!" Christine bowed respectfully towards Li Cheng: "I will teach them this sentence right away!"
Christine left.
And a bloody storm also took place in the city of fraud.
This is a movement that is even more terrifying than the half-demon power movement just now!
On this day, when the half-demons were still enforcing the law on the streets as usual, preparing to send the demons to the gallows by "putting aside the facts", the demons began to fight back.
They used a forbidden spell—"Who are you to assume my race!"
So the law enforcement team that arrived fell silent.
The law enforcement team said that since this is a conflict within your half-demon race, there is naturally no discrimination involved.
It can't be that you half-demons are discriminating against yourselves, right?
So the law enforcement team left.
The demons who had been trapped for a long time finally smiled.
We have been politically correct for so long, and now we are finally liberated, how can we still tolerate you guys?
So they took up arms and took to the streets.
But the half-demons were dumbfounded.
No, wasn't the tower crooked? How come it suddenly became straight?
You are blatantly discriminating against us half-demons!
So they also took up arms and took to the streets.
come on!
Let’s have a fair, just and open samurai fight!
On this day, the war between half-demons and demons began.
Since the population ratio of the two tribes has been adjusted to 1:1 by Li Cheng, the demons are no longer invincible as they were in previous wars.
The two sides fought back and forth, and after all this, the total population of the City of Fraud dropped by 50 percent within a day and a half.
Li Cheng's approval rating also continues to rise!
The number of souls accumulated in the National Land Refining Array continues to increase!
Inside the office.
Li Cheng lay on the bed, enjoying Miss Vivian's careful massage.
The cool little hands rubbed along the swollen muscles, and the mental pressure brought by the continuous "kill all" policy disappeared little by little.
Although the demons and half-demons lost their lives, the City of Fraud gained fairness and freedom!
In order to promote equality for all and build a harmonious society, Li Cheng has really given a lot!
"Unknown Brother." Vivian gently massaged him, and occasionally applied medicine on Li Cheng's body: "Does it feel sore here?"
"Yeah, it's very comfortable. By the way, Vivian, have you been following the recent news?"
"Yeah, I see. The City of Fraud has suddenly become very chaotic..." Vivian whispered.
"Do you hate this?" Li Cheng half opened his eyes, a cold light flashing in his pupils.
"No." Vivian shook her head. "If you hadn't enacted these laws, I wouldn't have known that my people would be so crazy."
"I originally thought that they were just frustrated and blamed others because they were discriminated against and oppressed."
"But now, I realize that I was wrong. They were not resisting oppression at all. They... just wanted to gain something for nothing."
"Is that so, Vivian." The murderous intent in Li Cheng's eyes slowly faded.
"What's wrong, Brother Unknown?"
"I will give you and the tribesmen you trust a piece of pure land, a clean fraud city." Li Cheng smiled: "But when the time comes, many things will have to start from scratch, and you may have a hard time."
"Pure Land... Brother Wuxiang always says things I don't understand." Vivian shook her head and slowly lay on top of Li Cheng, her face flushed as she muttered softly, "But no matter how hard it is, as long as you're by my side, I believe I can get through it."
"What if I'm not with you anymore?"
"Ah?" Vivian's face turned pale: "Brother Wuxiang, are you going to leave me?"
"I'm just saying if."
"Then..." Vivian breathed a sigh of relief, the blush on her cheeks like the sky at dusk: "Then I will try my best to find you, Brother Wuxiang. Even if it takes a thousand years or ten thousand years, I will definitely find you. I swear."
"Hehe." Li Cheng smiled and shook his head, his eyes suddenly showing a little loneliness.
It's a pity, this is just a game and Vivian is just an NPC.
Besides, this is the last era, and I am a player of the next era.
No matter what, it's impossible for us to meet again.
"By the way, Brother Li Cheng." Vivian suddenly sat up, walked to the side and pulled a small cart with a small cake on it: "Actually, today is my birthday~"
"Oh? Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would have asked Christine and the others to prepare a big cake for you." Li Cheng sat up.
"No need." Vivian picked up the cake and lit the candles on it. "Well, you've done a lot for me, Brother Unknown. Well, when I was a child, I made a wish that when I grow up, I would be able to... In short, I want to celebrate my birthday with someone I care about."
"Now, the wish has come true!"
She smiled and sat down next to Li Cheng, watching the candle flame gradually burn out.
Night fell at the perfect time, and under the flickering candlelight, the girl's rosy face was so charming.
"Make a wish, Brother Unknown."
"It's your birthday, not mine."
"Then I will share half of my wish with you!"
"How can wishes be divided?"
"Oh, I said we can split it, so make a wish quickly!" Vivian rubbed her head on Li Cheng's shoulder.
"Okay, okay." Li Cheng stared at the cake and clasped his hands together.
"Quantum technology must have hidden something new in the brain-computer version. I hope I can complete the game with one life and get the hidden ending."
Vivian looked at his profile and followed his example, clasping her hands together.
Thirty seconds later, she opened her eyes and blew out the candle.
"What wish did you make, Brother Li Cheng?"
"Everyone is equal, and the world is at peace."
"You're lying, who would make a wish like that!" Vivian said coquettishly.
"So what wish did you make?" Li Cheng looked at her.
"Well..." Vivian's eyes wandered, and she circled her fingers around the hem of her skirt: "Well, I... I hope I can become stronger, and then, I hope... you can love me..."
"Oh? You are very selfish." Li Cheng teased: "Why don't you make a wish to make me stronger and let you love me?"
"Because you are already very strong, and I have already..."
Vivian stopped and looked at Li Cheng with blushing cheeks.
"what happened to you?"
"Come on."
Vivian suddenly raised her head and kissed him.
Then, under Li Cheng's dazed gaze, Vivian scraped off some cream from the cake and smeared it from her mouth to her chin and then to her collarbone.
She didn't dare look at Li Cheng's face, and her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
"Brother Wuxiang, please taste the cake..."
