Chapter 435: The City of Teasing

Since in the past, the main activity sites were all on the shore, and even if they were close to the water source, they were at most close to some great lakes where only some aquatic monsters lived, so the impression of marine races such as mermaids, fish people, or squid girls was limited to Diana's science popularization at the beginning of the time.

The races are complex, and it is obviously a waste of time to explain them one by one, so to summarize the marine race in a simple sentence, that is, these guys who live in the sea are all funny!

This map cannon is big enough, but even if I stand on the street and shout like this, I believe that nine times out of ten people will raise their hands in agreement.

Take the merfolk who are most well-known to everyone, although they are known as the king of teasing in the ocean group, but judging from the fact that the consul of the sea capital has been in office for thousands of years, it is obviously not a matter of IQ to have this title.

In my words, merfolk...... No, the whole race of the ocean group is a group of people who go crazy, they have a normal IQ, but something is wrong with the emotional regulation raft in the brain, and the director says that everyone has become crazy people who only want to be happy in the moment, regardless of the outcome.

"It's fun to choose an archon by lot, so let's do it!"

"The first few consuls drawn out are too unreliable, and if you finally find a coolie, of course you can't let it go at will...... Eh, but then again, aren't we going to be able to play the lottery again? This is unbearable, so let's overthrow this consul and elect a new one!"

Because of this logic, which is incomprehensible to normal people, in the history explained by the Admiral, the scattered settlements of the entire ocean have rebelled together for such a trivial matter.

Admittedly, an army of insane people was not at all threatening, and even if they were left alone, they could destroy themselves, but after all, coups d'état every day were troublesome, so the extremely rare normal consul introduced a new policy. That is, the first popular election for the position of lord of the sea capital.

Voting conditions: 15 years of age or older, aborigines within the power of the Sea Capital, or people who hold a residence permit issued by the Government of the Sea City.

Requirements: Free registration, but if the vote rate is less than 3% of the total votes, the candidate will be stripped naked and hung on the street of the cross.

Although the policy was somewhat rudimentary, the decree was immediately supported by the crowd, after all, voting is more interesting than drawing lots. There are so many things that can make them play high during the election campaign, such as canvassing for votes in advance, forming a campaign headquarters, and smearing other candidates, and the civil strife in the maritime capital also ends in such a joking ending.

However, because the lords were elected in such a playful way, in order to avoid electing some strange objects, the consuls had already set the rules from the beginning, first of all, the chief of the lords was elected for a period of five years and could not be re-elected, and they did not have the power to participate in internal affairs.

The position is said to be a lord, but the only occasions that need to be made are the opening ribbon cutting and the appearance of a speech on a specific festival. It would be better to call it a city ambassador or a mascot.

At first glance, it sounds like a big problem, but looking at the past history of the sea capital, there has never been a dispute between the consul and the lord, and I wonder if the mentality of the elected lord is correct, or whether the consul has a set of means in dealing with the lord.

After listening to the uncle Admiral introduce the origin of the Sea Capital, I also have a deeper understanding of this place, if you choose people by popular voting, then even if an orc lord emerges, it is not too unusual. It's just that since I want to ask, I have to ask thoroughly, and I coughed dryly. Continuing to play the role of a curious baby, he asked, "And what is the matter with this fox lord now?"

"She was just as much of a bard as you were before she became a lord." Glancing at me with a slanted gaze, the uncle admiral continued: "I remember that she came to the sea capital about two years ago, but unlike you, who took the creative route, our current lord is a singing bard, because of his good singing voice and beautiful appearance. She quickly amassed a large number of followers, and at the time of the election of the new lord, she applied for her name and ascended to the position of the new lord in a crushing manner."

"Are you upset with her?"

When I asked this, the uncle and admiral hurriedly smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "No, how can I feel dissatisfied. There is no chance of conflict between the headquarters and the lords. We've even worked together a few times in the past two years."

"How many times have you worked together?" I paused for a moment before I reacted: "Well, I probably know what the situation is, although the lord has no real power, but anyway, he is still the representative of the sea capital, as an officially recognized local organization, if you want to travel, bodyguards and other work are in charge of your headquarters."

The uncle admiral gave a thumbs up to indicate that my guess was correct: "After all, she is a bard, even if she becomes a lord, she has no intention of suspending her acting career, regardless of the lordship, from the perspective of image ambassador, she can be said to be the most successful one in the past, unlike those who have lived in the lord's mansion for five years after becoming a lord, she actually drove the local tourism of the sea capital in turn, and last year she even cooperated with the headquarters to hold a sea concert, when the venue said that it was as sensational as it was, However, I am afraid that the threshold for lordship voting will also become higher in the future, and it may be that in the future, when the sea capital is close to the lordship election, countless bards will compete to enter the city."

"Congratulations, it seems that in the future, the city of the sea will have another nickname of the city of literature and art." I heard so much from the uncle and admiral, but there is very little information that is really useful, except for the fact that most of the sea-dwelling races are pitfalls, that is, the lords here are basically indifferent, and it is best to go to the consul if there is anything important...... Wait a minute, I realized that I seemed to have made a big mistake before.

Since the lord is a mascot of a power without the power to participate in the government, then there is no point in me sending a message to her! It's no wonder that after waiting for so long, no news came back, and inexplicably asked the idol to come out for dinner, don't ask what the idol party will react to when he sees it, it is estimated that this letter was brushed off and thrown into the trash as early as the agent helped screen the fan letters!

What's more, I wrote my real name on the worship post, and for the idol lord who can't get in touch with the government, the ghost knows who Xu Mo is...... Well, you may know that with the publication of League of Legends, I'm kind of famous among the many bards, but even if people really want to meet me, it doesn't make sense.

In the face of an idol lord who doesn't know anything about government affairs, I really don't know what common topics we can talk about, except for the wind and snow and how to hold an exchange concert. (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you for the reward of "Ji Dong lost exia".

Having said that, some people think that the commentary chapter is quite watery, I wonder what you think?

If we don't like this way of writing, we'll try to shorten this kind of plot later.
