I'm being watched by a sword

Chapter 254 The Birth of a New City Lord
On the morning of July 9.

Gao Yang's departure spread throughout the entire Cucumber City.

As the supreme commander of the city army, Gao Yang's status in the hearts of the residents of Cucuma City was even higher than that of the late city lord Chi Cucuma.

It is conceivable how much shock Gao Yang's departure brought to the people in Cucumber City.

Tens of thousands of city residents spontaneously took to the streets, held massive demonstrations or sat in front of the city lord's mansion, which directly led to the complete shutdown of almost all industries in the morning.

However, what is even more surprising is the actions of Modi and the city lord's guard.

Modi didn't care about the demonstrations.

When the patrol team of the city lord's mansion passed by the parade, some even joined it.

Because Gao Yang left, most of the city's army left, so the guarding and defense of Cucumber City almost fell into the hands of the city lord's mansion guards and hidden guards.

The leader of the hidden guards was finally able to step out of the shadows, and turned into the chief guard of the city lord's mansion, commanding the city lord's mansion guards and the city lord's mansion's dark guards.

If there is no unexpected situation, the foreign race will not approach the city in broad daylight.

In other words, during the day, each city gate only needs a few guards to watch it, and only at night does the city gate need to be guarded.

Therefore, Modi ordered the leader of the hidden guards to mobilize some city lord's mansion guards and dark guards to guard the city gate and the city lord's mansion, and then lay down in the gentle village of Tingting, the third concubine of Cucumber, and couldn't get up.

However, to Modi's displeasure, the fifth concubine of Chi Cucumber was missing.

For this reason, Modi sent people to search the entire Cucumber City, but there was no trace of Chi Cucumber's fifth concubine, as if this person had disappeared out of thin air.

It was noon, and tens of thousands of people demonstrated as Modi expected.

——It lasted only one morning, and the hungry gatherers suddenly dispersed, as if the massive demonstrations that morning had never happened.

There have been many such incidents.

Every time the city government is replaced, there will be more or less ceremonial demonstrations by the residents of the city. The long ones will last for a week or two, and the short ones will disperse within three to five hours.

This is why Modi did not control the demonstrations of residents in the city at all.

In a world that is collapsing, survival is inherently difficult, and faith is nothing more than an extravagant hope in the heart.

It is enough to hope that a morning or a week or two is enough, and you want to play for a month?Unless the whole family doesn't want to live anymore, they all want to starve to death!

In the collapsed world, most people live at the bottom, living a miserable life of starving and starving.

If the residents at the bottom want to have a way out and live a good life, they can only rely on the growth of their own cultivation or the awakening of special talents.

Of course, if you have a good daughter, or a good son, who possesses a very high talent, or awakens a special talent with excellent quality, then it is not impossible to directly live a life of a superior person.

However, there are really few low-level jumping dragons like Lu Shan, and it is not bad if it is as few as one in a million.

This is also the reason why Lu Shan became a fairy-level disciple, became a master, and received extremely high attention.

Of course, it is undeniable that the involvement of the Monster Beast Administration is also one of the reasons why Lu Shan's attention is so high.

As for Mo Feifei, who has some family background, as long as he is talented, he can get the attention of many wealthy and famous families.

These people will generally join those big forces, or enter the schools of big powers to study. People who are a little bit more motivated or lucky, if they are favored by big figures in big forces, they may also become some big people's disciples.

Once one day awakens a special talent with excellent quality or similar to bloodline, it will be easier to get the favor of those big shots.

Although it is not difficult to become an ordinary disciple, there are very few people like Mo Feifei who are directly accepted as personal disciples.

As Mo Feifei's biological father, Modi not only knows how to control the people, but also understands the conflict of interests among the big forces.

So, he began to drift away, drifting away in the true sense - he also sneered at Lu Shan, a small upstart, and dismissed it, feeling that it was the same.

Seeing Modi like this, the beautiful woman shopkeeper Guo persuaded him several times, but it is a pity that Modi is in that kind of arrogance, how could he understand the kindness in the beautiful woman's heart.

……

With a mournful face and hunched back, Bei Pan lived in the City Lord's Mansion.

However, the shriveled corners of his mouth seemed to have a vague meaning, which seemed to be different from his face, or even completely opposite.

Bei Pan knew that the reason why he was forced to become the city lord by Modi was only Modi's provocation to Lu Shan.

However, Bei Pan didn't care. What he cared about was finally having the opportunity to attack those enemies who were hiding in the dark.

You know, even if Bei Pan is emptied by Modi, there will still be some people who follow the city lord.

Regardless of whether these followers were sincere or false, or even deliberately arranged by someone, at least when Bei Pan was still the city lord, these people still obeyed him.

Bei Pan moved into the City Lord's Mansion in the afternoon, and at noon, the announcement of the new City Lord was posted all over the bulletin boards in the streets and communities by the City Lord's Mansion Guards, and there were even big loudspeakers chanting repeatedly.

……

After lunch, people eat their stomachs and take a nap.

The people who were still marching and demonstrating in the morning were lying on the bulletin board in the afternoon to read the announcement of the appointment of the new city lord.

The bulletin board next to the refugee hut.

A middle-aged strong man gritted his teeth and asked the crowd, "Bei Pan? Who is it? Have you heard of this name?"

Next to the strong man was a taller man, who smiled and said: "I haven't heard of it, it must be a puppet, I don't know when it was killed again? Hahaha!"

Some people are worried: "It may be sent from above, and the name of Cucumber City has been changed, but I am not used to it."

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone immediately retorted: "The name Cucumber City is too ugly. I think it's a good change. I think it's good to change it to 'Beishan City'!"

There was also a voice sighing in the crowd: "What does it have to do with ordinary people like us? It's better to have more mercenary missions, so that we can earn some money and spend it more practically!"

Suddenly, the voice of new news appeared in the crowd: "Did you know? The trade union is going to make a big move!"

A group of people quickly asked in unison: "What big move?"

The voice just now continued: "I heard that the big shots in the trade union feel that the mercenaries are too scattered and their status is too low, and they want to use the resources of the trade union to create a registered mercenary organization and prepare to take over all the mercenaries. Mission, I don’t know if it’s true or not?”

Some people don't believe it at all: "Even if it is true, so what?"

Some people also brought up previous events as evidence: "Union registration requires at least a V-level. There are a few of us who can reach the V-level. At that time, we will not be able to eat meat and soup. We can't even eat a little bit of residue. arrive?"

The man felt that he was not trusted, and he couldn't hold back his face. He quickly explained: "No! I heard that the mercenary organization this time does not have any requirements for cultivation. Even ordinary people can register as mercenaries and accept ordinary mercenaries. Soldier missions can also make a lot of money."

This remark aroused the interest of many people: "Is there such a good thing?"

The man immediately identified his friend's friend: "Of course. As you know, my friend works in a trade union, and he has inside information."

Someone cheered up and longed for a life without going to the mining area: "It would be great if it was true, and ordinary people like us don't have to go to the mining area to suffer that suffering, and face the danger of being eroded by the mutant power every day."

There are too many people talking, and naturally there are voices of opposition: "Don't be too happy too early, when the registered members of the trade union were just talking about hype at the beginning, they changed the rules later, only for high cultivation bases (level V and above) Did the crowd serve?"

As soon as the opponent finished speaking, the person before said sarcastically: "It was then, and now is now. Anyway, I support the trade union."

Everyone responded in unison: "Me too! Me too!"

Suddenly, someone said: "Shouldn't ordinary mercenary missions also go out of the city to hunt and kill aliens?"

His question made the restless crowd in front of the bulletin board immediately quiet down. The scene was so quiet for a moment that it was almost audible.

Afterwards, everyone dispersed, leaving only the announcement on the appointment of the new city lord on the bulletin board, shivering in the slight wind.
