The inhabitants of the Underground Federation will never call the Underground Federation by its full name.

The name "Twin Goddess Republican Federation" is almost completely unrecognized by the public when the two goddesses are not resident in the country.

They were indeed very grateful to the two goddesses for giving them the ability to live underground.

Thanksgiving, however, does not mean awe.

For the people of the earth fear nothing.

They don't respect the monarch, they don't respect their parents, they don't respect the gods.

They don't even have the concept of a state, a territory, a nation...... Because their "territory" has been being expanded, they have been a gathering of many "losers" at the beginning, and even now their membership has been increasing.

Compared to the narrow above-ground world, the underground world, with its almost infinite space and unusually abundant resources, allows the citizens of the Underground Federation to live quite comfortably.

Underground people even have a sense of superiority over people on the ground.

They would even often get together and laugh at the anxieties of earthly people.

Because there are always people on the ground who are worried that they will attack the ground along the subway. In newspapers and speeches, the threat of underground people is reiterated and the dangers of the subway are emphasized.

But the truth is that they simply don't pay any attention to the terrestrial world.

They don't have to worry about food and clothing, they can see the light, they have very low prices, they have a very wide personal space, and they can easily buy the specialties of various countries; There is no need to be sent to fight wars between nations, and there are not even lords, kings, and nobles...... They have few obligations other than having to pay taxes to the Council of the Wise and must obey the local laws proposed by the Council of the Wise.

The entire underground world is governed by the dual council model of the "Digger's Council" and the "Wise Men's Council".

However, this does not mean that the status of parliamentarians is higher than theirs.

In the underworld, there is no such thing as a "mayor" in every city. Rather, it is almost entirely governed by the members of the Council of the Wise - they have no clear positions, each in its own hands.

Because without being accountable to the state, the king, or the local nobility, the underground federation, which has been expanding outwards and has a small number of inhabitants per city, does not have any special affairs to manage.

Even in the different underground cities on the metropolitan level, the laws are completely different. Housing prices are extremely low and there are no immigration restrictions, and when local laws in one area are unpopular, residents will move to other cities on their own.

This is a very different place from the terrestrial world.

"That's why there are so few people here......

Si secretly looked around and whispered, "Because the environment here is not good?" ”

He didn't dare to speak out loud.

People here are unfamiliar with the place, mainly for fear of being beaten.

"Oh, not really."

It wasn't Jiu'er or Lin Yiyi who spoke.

Rather, it was a man with unusually pale skin in a leather coat with a long-sleeved raff collar.

"Because there was a big change here before, and it hatched a troublesome nightmare. In the past, it was not called the Spore Mill, but the Black Mushroom Mill...... After the nightmare, many people were troublesome, so they moved out temporarily. Be prepared to come back when the nightmare is gone. ”

The man said, stretched out his hand to Si Mingke, and smiled slightly at Lin Yiyi and Jiu'er: "Introduce yourself, I am the overseer of the Spore Mill. My name is Niusel.

"You are...... Where did it come from? Will come to the Spore Mill at this time, is it ...... Want to solve your nightmares? ”

His brown hair was naturally curled, and his eyes shimmered with a strange green light—the kind of eyes that glowed on their own, and their unusually pale or dark, plaster or obsidian-like skin was one of the main characteristics of the Underground.

Niusel has a faint smell of wine and tobacco.

…… Overseer?

Lin Yiyi suddenly raised a little vigilance.

If you want to say that they are the most similar point in the earthly world...... It's the underground world, where there are still positions like "policeman", "judge" and "lawyer".

The underground called the police "overseers," while the judges were members of the Council of the Wise—the law-makers themselves. Lawyers, on the other hand, are called "debaters", and in the underworld they are a profession that is disliked and degraded.

The laws of the different cities were determined by the deliberations of the local councils of wise men; The money for hiring an Overseer is paid by the members of the local Digger Council, or directly by the members of the Digger Council.

Of course, parliamentarians are certainly richer than citizens.

But that's not because you become rich by becoming a member of parliament. It is those who have the ability to become rich who are eligible to become parliamentarians.

The original Twin Councils were formed by the founders of the Underground Federation.

- The so-called, "wise men" and "diggers".

The highest point of "wisdom" and "hard work".

The Council of the Wise is made up entirely of followers of the Mystic Lady, with a small number of followers of the Flint Father. They were brilliant inventors, engineers, botanists...... The glorious civilization of the underground world was created little by little by these "wise men". Only the best and wisest can become members of the Council of the Wise.

Whether it's a subway powered by gray fog or an undersea tunnel, it's their masterpiece—not a gift from the gods.

As for the Diggers' Council......

Among them, the followers of the Silent Lady and the followers of the Buried Lady are equally divided.

Every person who volunteers to become a "digger" and open up new soil for the Underground Federation will receive a set of equipment and a ration to dive down to the exploration layer...... Just leave it to fate.

Not everywhere there are "wells" that can return to the earth.

In exploration layers that have no map and cannot replenish resources, it is not uncommon to lose light sources, lose food and water, and be attacked by underground monsters and even other diggers.

If you die on the Exploration Floor, you won't even be able to get out of the message "I'm dead".

It will only be "missing".

Valuable areas discovered by the digger are automatically vested in the Digger's Council, and the discoverer is granted council membership. However, before the discoverer dies, anyone who leases or uses the land through the diggers' council will have three of the costs paid to the discoverer; This figure is reduced to 10% ten years after the digger's death, and continues to be given to his family.

But under this extremely generous reward, the "digger" has a first-month "disappearance" rate of up to 70%.

This is also the reason why the "diggers" believe in the mother-in-law who buried the bones.

Because when they traveled, many people were already mentally prepared to "die in the soil".

- If the "wise people" rely on their wisdom and minds to earn wealth, so that citizens can respect and be happy. The "diggers" have won their wealth by virtue of "the diligence of hard digging", "the courage to endure great dangers" and "the luck of returning successfully".

Conversely, the Overseers are only directly accountable to the Diggers.

They don't necessarily arrest people who break the law, but people who the diggers want to arrest.

And if the Overseer is himself a "digger......

Lin Yiyi glanced at Niusel.

Her stupid brother and Jiu'er are both young people and unreliable.

Her Royal Highness Annan went to the Duchy of Winter for a trip, and now she can only come by herself.

Underworld...... It's not a place to be reasonable.

Weak people, here they will only be bullied. But if it's too troublesome, it will be unpopular.

Neither can make the other party feel tricky.

And make the other party jealous...... ?

So Lin Yiyi pondered for a while and had an idea in her heart.

She said in a deep voice, "My name is 'Yiyi'.

"We are the transcribers of ...... Hidden Eye."

Today, I made it even more annoying, and I slept and slept......
