As a painter, how should I face the original heroine

As for when this unlucky guy can get his name back, it depends on when Rem wakes up in the original book. Anyway, at least Li Wei didn't wait for the old thief Changyue to fill in the hole before crossing, so it can only be say sorry

Chapter 462 The Development of the Five Candidates

"Teacher Leviathan, is there really no problem with this?"

Emilia looked out of the car window with some worry. She did not wear a cloak that could cover her original appearance at Li Wei's request, and she was traveling with a silver-haired half-fairy appearance.

"Don't worry, after experiencing the crusade against the White Whale and the Sinister Archbishop of Laziness, everyone must have realized that you and the Witch Cult are hostile to each other. Due to the negative attitude of the kingdom before letting go of the Witch Cult, they prefer to be willing and capable. Leaders who confront it head-on.”

The Witch Cult usually doesn't attack the princes and nobles, and they are more tormenting the people at the bottom. Therefore, the high-level officials of the kingdom have always held the attitude of having nothing to do with themselves.Of course...if they knew the cause of the previous royal family's illness, they might not think so.

In short, the deeds of the crusade against the white whale and the lazy spread throughout the country and even the world, and at the same time, a wave of publicity was also made for Emilia. Li Wei even secretly used A lot of credit is also pushed to the head of the half-elf girl.

Even if they go to the streets now, people may still fear and reject Emilia, but at least there will be no hostile or abusive behavior, and there will be some respect for her as a candidate for the king, after all That was a real feat.

"What about the Duke of Karsten? She is the leader of the white whale crusade, and she was originally one of the most popular candidates."

Leticia asked curiously. She and the teacher had met each other a year ago, and she seemed to be a very powerful nobleman.She doesn't care about Lugnica's king election, but she has a good personal relationship with Emilia, so she hopes that the half-fairy girl can win.

"Cursch...she's in a bad situation right now, and it's said that her public approval rating is at the lowest level just like Felut's. She hasn't been active this year, and the few decisions she made seemed indecisive. It is not like the Valkyrie who was vigorous and resolute before."

Li Wei actually learned more detailed news through the intelligence network built by the intestine hunters.For example, those who originally supported the Duke's faction could not see the hope of winning, and voted for other camps one after another.

The nobles of some local factions were attracted by Roswaal, and the nobles who supported the "noble" blood were partial to Felut, and those who simply followed the trend of investment and sought advantages and avoided disadvantages were shunted to Priscilla and Anastasia.

So much so that the former Duke, who lived in seclusion behind the scenes, had to come forward to stabilize the situation. This time, he went to the city of Watergate to find the Bishop of Gluttony, which was probably the most urgent thing they needed to solve.

"Public support rate... I remember the teacher mentioned before that Duke Carlsten and the "Bloody Bride" are the highest rank, Miss Anastasia and Miss Felut are the second rank, and Miss Emilia... is the bottom rank, is it now? What's changed?"

Leticia couldn't help asking, because the dragon Polkenika will only sign a contract with the king whom the people favor, so the so-called "popular support rate" is particularly important, and it is directly related to the candidate who wins in the end. .

"Priscilla has not been idle for the past year. Her territory is bordered by the hostile Phlakia Empire, and there are constant frictions. But that woman directly pacified those turbulent neutral areas and merged them into her own territory. , the empire also strangely did not respond."

Li Wei shrugged helplessly as he said that, needless to say, it was such bizarre luck that it was so outrageous that no matter what Priscilla did during the day, her wishes would come true. , otherwise it is useless no matter how powerful it is.

"Amazing……"

Emilia covered her mouth and exclaimed, she felt that she was still far behind in comparison, and she had to work harder.

"As for the little girl Felut...how can I say that she gathered a bunch of low-class guys and called them 'Sun Yin Zhe', which means buried talents. Abi also came up with a bad idea, saying that she would build a Sin City without any legal restrictions, asylum for those who can."

It sounds absurd, but Li Wei knows that it is absolutely feasible, because Felut has the most powerful combat power in the world - "Sword Master" Reinhardt.Sin City, which is ruled by absolute force, is actually easier to manage. Anyway, if you don't obey, you can kill them. They are just scum.

"...I always feel that Ms. Felt will end up with a title like 'Tyrant' in the future."

Leticia was also a little bit dumbfounded, this was the selection of the king and not some competition for the leader of the gangsters, the style of the whole camp was different from the others.

"With Felut's personality... the title of warden or director of the labor reformation center is more suitable for her. All in all, after this year's changes, the five candidates are divided into two echelons. Scarlet Bride and Anna Tasia's first echelon, us and Crusch and Felut's second echelon."

As Li Wei said, he stretched out his left hand and raised two fingers, and his right hand raised three fingers. Their current situation is still not optimistic. These two in the first echelon are indeed a little too aggressive.

"Miss Anastasia...has she unknowingly become the favorite of the king?"

Emilia still remembers that when the other party first came to the Lugnica Kingdom, they were often criticized by the civil servants at the king's election ceremony because of their status as foreigners and their origin as orphans in slums. Now the backhand is to slap them in the face .

"Of course, taking advantage of her status as a candidate, the Hexin Chamber of Commerce has now opened up trade routes across the country. Basically, the financial lifeline of the entire kingdom is already in her hands. Even the Sage Association depends on her face."

Therefore, Li Wei advocates that businessmen should be restricted, otherwise capitalism is prone to such things as stealing the country.Moreover, Lugnica is still a feudal kingdom. If Anastasia is allowed to win the throne, the eighteen-hour work system is still waiting for the people at the bottom.

"Amazing……"

This is the second time Emilia has said this. She subconsciously believes that the crusade against the white whale and the lazy archbishop are all due to Li Wei.The only thing I can say is that I have liberated the mixed-race demihuman village with less than 100 people in Sanctuary, which is completely incomparable with other candidates' nationwide layout.

"It's just a means of opportunism, gaining the favor of the people of the whole country through appropriate concessions, and taking the throne back after taking the throne. Unless Anastasia can complete the transformation from a businessman to a king, otherwise all this painstaking planning It's all just bubbles."

If it is placed in a low-magic world, such a large consortium can only rely on the awakening of the people to fight against it.But in the Kingdom of Lugnica, where high-end force is rampant, Li Wei believes that the Iron Fang Mercenary Corps and Julius alone cannot save the opponent's life

Chapter 463 Arriving at Minato City and Water Hagoromo Pavilion

After twelve days of trekking, everyone successfully arrived at the watergate city of Priestella. As rumored, the structure of this city is very peculiar, and it is completely built in the middle of the lake.

This is a freshwater lake formed by a tributary of the Tigurasi River. It has a large area and is located at the junction of the Kingdom of Lugnica and the city-state of Kararaki.

The entire city is surrounded by a high wall, which separates the lake from the water, which is actually higher than the street level.If you want to enter Priestella, you can only pass the bridge across the lake, and the registration for entering the city is also done here.

"Candidate? Love... Lady Emilia!?"

The magistrate who was in charge of collecting the registration form took the materials tremblingly, and quickly let everyone go.

Originally, registration in the city required a series of procedures such as signatures, guarantees, and oaths, but now they are all simplified to avoid dissatisfaction from the other party.

"Am I so scary?"

The half-elf girl asked the other partners in frustration. She hadn't been treated differently along the way, and she thought her appearance would no longer cause panic.

"Well... maybe it's my problem, after all, my reputation outside is not very good."

Li Wei touched his nose with a guilty conscience. According to the news obtained by the intestine hunters, because of his attitude of humiliating the emperor and his own strong strength at the king's selection ceremony before, he became only a half-hearted man under the circumstances of false rumors. There are horrible rumors that the fairy girl will be slaughtered on the spot if she speaks a little louder.

After being guided respectfully by the sheriff, everyone successfully passed through the inner gate of the city wall, and what appeared before them was the bustling streets of the watergate city Priestella... No, more precisely, it should be the waterway.

"Wow--"

Everyone who was shocked by the oil painting-like scene in front of them couldn't help being amazed at the same time. Priestella, surrounded by high walls, was not depressed as imagined, but because the waterways that criss-cross the entire city brought a sense of freedom and romance perception.

In addition to the waterways that spread throughout the city, two wide canals divide the entire Priestela into four areas. On both sides of the canal are neatly lined with exotic stone buildings, which are reflected on the clear water. Looking at the boats and passers-by, it looks like a beautiful city on the water.

"The Priestela city has been built for more than [-] years. It is said that it was originally designed to kill some kind of trap, so this row-by-row shape was deliberately built to gather the lake water into the center of the city."

Li Wei, who has done his homework well, told everyone that this is knowledge that doesn't even exist in Betty's forbidden library.

"Trap? Is it to deal with monsters or something?"

Emilia asked curiously, what kind of existence required so much effort to build such a magnificent city?

"The arrogant witch Tifeng, okay... don't discuss this topic, don't forget the purpose of our coming here, maybe there are people from the Witch Cult in the city, and it will be difficult to provoke them to attack wildly."

Li Wei didn't care about the shocked crowd, and waved a "dragon boat" with local characteristics. Naturally, this kind of dragon boat is not the kind of dragon boat race on the Dragon Boat Festival, but is really powered by some kind of monster. Towed in water.

It belongs to the same category as the earth dragon that usually runs on land. The bluish-blue guy with a catfish beard, a smooth body and a lizard head is called a "water dragon", while the so-called dragon boat That's how it got its name.

"Are the guests just visiting Watergate City? Where are you going to visit first? Or do you want to hear Miss Liliana's concert?"

The boatman driving the dragon boat approached the waterway very enthusiastically, and even though he saw the silver-haired half-elf standing behind, it was too late to turn around at this time, so he could only bite the bullet and prepare to take over the business.

"Diva? Well... Forget it, let's go to the "Water Hagoromo Pavilion"."

Everyone carried a lot of luggage, all of which were stuffed in the system's own warehouse by Li Wei, but it was too troublesome to take them out, so it was better to go to the hotel to put the things away before thinking about things to play.
