Chapter 405: Federal Election (Part II)
Just when Rachel felt wavering, Ruan Chi suddenly took the initiative to speak: "Lei'er, you go with them, and I will explain to her on Sally's side." ”
The elven swordsman looked at Ruan Chi, her beautiful eyes trembled, and she said in a low voice, "Thank you!" ”
……
Leaving Rachel at the dilapidated house, Ruan Chi later returned to Dream Town on his own, and found Sharisy in the academy's office that day.
"Bastard, what's the matter with the two of you, one of you left his post temporarily and went to the North for almost a month, and now the other has applied for a temporary leave, where are you going to be Hilled Combat Academy?"
After hearing Rachel's request to leave, Shalith said with a little headache as she lifted the glasses on the bridge of her nose.
"Hehe, in fact, in addition to Teacher Rachel, I plan to take a few days off tomorrow." Ruan Chi did not forget the agreement between Jì and Duncan, so he made his words clear in one breath.
"......" A black thread slipped down Sally's head, and now she really wanted to slap the guy in front of her in the face.
……
Following.
After Ruan Chi ate the breakfast cooked by Helan, he immediately opened the system backpack and took out a directional teleportation scroll, in order to save time, Ruan Chi had made a lot of money this time, and had already marked the coordinates on the side of Nugel City before he came back, and now he only needs to tear off the scroll in his hand, and he can be directly teleported to Nuger City.
Half an hour later.
Under Duncan's arrangement, Ruan Chi successfully boarded a carriage arranged for him, and the person in charge of the joint was still an acquaintance of Ruan Chi.
"Long time no see, Your Excellency the Elven King. Yes. Wrong. I should call you Mr. Ruan Chi now, right? Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, West smiled awkwardly and changed his words.
It seems that Duncan's side has already made his identity public before proposing cooperation, so Ruan Chi just shrugged his shoulders and said that it didn't matter what the Sven official in front of him said.
Today is the grandest day for the entire Free Federation, and indeed for the entire Terran, and from the way in, the entire city of Nugel is shrouded in a grand atmosphere of lanterns.
Pull back the curtains of the carriage. Ruan Chi could see banners and buntings lining the streets on both sides, and glanced at the contents of the banners, which were nothing more than the canvassing slogans of some candidates participating in the election.
The streets were also filled with people who supported their candidates, and it was not difficult to see from their hoarse voices how excited they were now.
I have to say that the human race is the group that the Miracle Continent has seen so far that is closest to the earth's political system, and it is very similar to the earthlings in terms of personality and values.
The carriage probably traveled through the crowded streets for about two hours, with the assistance of West. Successfully enter the interior of the Court of Liberty through a secret passageway.
Incidentally, the Court of Freedom is the stage where the federal election is about to take place.
"Mr. Ruan Chi. Come in! West took Ruan Chi to a room and stopped and said.
Ruan Chi nodded and followed the door to enter.
The layout of the room was not complicated, and there were three people standing in it, and one of them was the old man Ron lying on a purple crystal bed.
Now he seems to be in a bad condition, his eyes are closed, and he looks like he is asleep.
"Three adults, Mr. Ruan Chi has already brought." West stood by the door and respectfully reported to the three people standing in the room.
"You're finally here." Duncan's expression was obviously very happy when he saw Ruan Chi appear, but Yufpe, who was standing next to him, showed a hint of displeasure.
Among the three, Tang Shide, the boss of the Bloody Hand Knights, who had a face-to-face relationship, smiled kindly: "This little brother is the candidate recommended by Duncan?" ”
"Yes, boss, his name is Ruan Chi, although his personality is a little eccentric, but his strength is quite strong, I believe he can help us." Duncan said.
"Uncle, are you complimenting me or sarcasm me, what is a bit of a strange personality." Ruan Chi said in a dissatisfied voice.
"I've never been very much in favor of involving an outsider in our operation." The female knight made a nasal sound, obviously dissatisfied with the helper Duncan had found.
"Actually, I don't really want to come, but my uncle is desperately begging me, so I have to reluctantly come." Ruan Chi spread his hands, as if he couldn't see the cold gaze cast by the female knight.
"Enough Yuffie, since it's Duncan's person, we should be able to trust it." It was Tang Shide who spoke, and he opened his mouth to stop what the female knight was about to say.
"By the way, what is my part of the job going to do?" Ruan Chi cast an inquiring look at Duncan.
Duncan coughed lightly and continued, "Now, Lord Ron is about to go into a coma because of the upcoming reincarnation ceremony, and this time, coinciding with the time of the federal election, lasts for about three days. During these three days, I hope you will protect Lord Ron every step of the way. ”
"Huh? I protect the old man, but what about you? The corners of Ruan Chi's mouth twitched, looking at the three Bloody Hand Knights in front of him.
"Didn't I say that? The Draco Empire, through the Federal Assembly, pressured us to take care of security during the federal election, so we couldn't stay with Lord Ron for long. Duncan said helplessly.
"So, the job of protecting the old man is basically me doing it alone?" Ruan Chi suddenly had a feeling of being pitted.
"No, West will stay here to spy on you, after all, you were once the Elven King, and although you are now in name only, we can't fully trust you yet." Yuffie suddenly interjected.
“……”
After the three Bloody Hand Knights left, the room was left with Ruan Chi and West, and of course, Ron, who was lying unconscious on his bed.
Seeing that he was bored, Ruan Chi simply sat down by the window and looked out through the transparent window. The location of this room is good, just enough to look out into the atrium.
A huge stage was set up there, and the audience was full of canvassing teams brought by the candidates, and outside, there were crowds of civilian supporters, and the momentum was comparable to some of the world-class large-scale events that Ruan Chi had seen when he was on Earth.
After watching it for a while, he was really bored, Ruan Chi yawned and asked another living person in this room: "Then again, since Old Man Ron has stepped down, how can he still stay in the Court of Freedom?" ”
West said in a respectful tone: "Your Excellency Ron is the first and only person who can be re-elected as Prime Minister for three consecutive terms since the establishment of the Free Federation, and he has made great contributions to the Federation, although because of the Platinum Rebellion, the Federal Assembly put all the fault on His Excellency, but there are still many people in the crowd who have petitioned for Your Excellency, so although Your Excellency was dismissed, the Council still retained Your right to live in the Court of Liberty under the pressure of the masses." ”
"I didn't expect the old man to listen to it." Ruan Chi nodded.
"......" the corners of West's mouth twitched, he was the first person to hear someone always call Ron with the word "old man".
"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"
Suddenly, a cannon salute rang out outside, followed by the sound of solemn orchestral music, and it seemed that the federal election was about to officially begin.
Ruan Chi leaned against the window and could see clearly modified carriages in the middle of a large road made of white granite in the middle of the atrium.
The carriages of these carriages were quite large enough to accommodate almost ten people to sit on them, and it deliberately removed the roof, lowered the original guardrail, so that the people standing on them could see the upper body, and then each carriage was pulled by eight horses, and there was an honor guard of knights in front of it to open the way.
After the election began, salutes were not parked in the sky, and under the colorful flowers in the sky, the candidates participating in the election slowly drove in on this huge carriage.
Nguyen Chi also noticed that when these candidates entered the venue, in addition to waving to the civilians around them, they also had a flag bearer by their side, otherwise they were carrying the national flag of their own country.
The territory of the Free Federation is made up of 26 countries, so the number of candidates participating in this election is estimated to be about 26.
Ruan Chi yawned as he watched the candidates enter, but at this time, West came over at some point, and he also looked at the candidates through the window.
At this time, the last candidate's convoy entered the field, and the other party entered the atrium with a black flag, and when West saw this flag, his expression became obviously stiff, and he muttered to himself: "Here, the team of the Heavenly Dragon Empire." ”
The Celestial Dragon Empire?
Ruan Chi was stunned for a moment, and then looked in the direction that West was looking, only to see the black flag, with a lifelike five-clawed golden dragon clearly printed in the middle.
Such a special pattern was used by no country except for the only imperial power in the center of the continent.
The team of the Celestial Dragon Empire entered the arena, and the atmosphere of the audience also reached its highest point, and it was clear that they had the greatest popularity in this federal election.
As an old opponent who has been looking for trouble for himself, Ruan Chi deliberately cheered up and looked at the team participating in the election, first of all, his eyes fell on the carriage where the candidate was standing.
What is surprising is that the candidate sent by the Heavenly Dragon Empire to run for election this time is unexpectedly young, and he looks like he is only a half-old child, and he feels that he is not a threat.
After thinking about it for a long time, Ruan Chi couldn't figure out why the Heavenly Dragon Empire would send such a child to run for election, and his eyes moved to other places.
"Huh?"
Unexpectedly, Ruan Chi saw an acquaintance in the convoy, it was the man who had acted with the Nine Ghosts, and his name seemed to be called Niya.
Ruan Chi is still quite impressed by this man, because this guy is basically one of the main persons in charge of the new plan to transform people, and Ruan Chi has heard his name more than once.
Beside Nia, there was a tall man standing at this time, judging from his attire, his status seemed to be quite high, riding a demonic beast in white armor, leading the way in front of the team.
But because the distance was too far, Ruan Chi couldn't see what the name on this person's head was. (To be continued......)
