0001 Inheritance Ceremony

After a night of madness, the relationship between the two became more intimate, and the movement was very loud, I don't know if outsiders heard it, at least there was nothing abnormal on the faces of Yun Qi's uncle and nephew and Franklin, and even the little mustard seed did not show anything wrong, which couldn't help but make Cen Mu question, is the sound insulation of the house really so good?

The next day, Franklin promulgated a series of policies before he stepped down:

Establishing 'Bounty Hunters' and 'Heaven's Light' as the only two legitimate official bodies in Bounty Town;

Set up a small town mercenary team with a maximum of 50 people; (As long as you want to make a living on the Bounty Town quest platform, you must comply with this rule.) )

Take back the personnel rights and task review and approval rights of the bounty task platform, which belong to Catherine;

Establish an arms ban and draw up a ban on the sale of weapons on the list, and none of the weapons on the list can be sold; (The sale of a range of weapons of war is mainly prohibited.) )

Dissolve the Bounty Council, take back legislative, judicial, and executive powers, and establish the Bounty Council, composed of eleven members, with the power to propose draft laws, but the Bounty King has a veto power.

……

There is no doubt that these policies basically eliminate the possibility of growing a second Thunder Axe or Lone Wolf team locally, and in addition, the strategic materials seized from the Thunder Axe and Lone Wolf bases are uniformly collected and confiscated to the official warehouse, in this regard, Franklin and Cen Mu have the same tacit understanding, that is, to grasp the important materials in their hands and distribute them uniformly, and the approval power of distribution is in their own hands.

In this way, Catherine's centralization of power was maximized, and she became the supreme leader of the town.

Garfield was completely reduced to her foil, for Garfield's arrangement, Franklin did not break the agreement, but only used a clever means to bypass his commitment restrictions, after the fall of the Tuoba father and son and Billy, his use was further weakened, and he was framed by Franklin to die in the system, as long as his ability did not reach the point of crushing the ability of Bounty Town, he could never threaten Catherine's position.

After the issuance of these decrees, rumors were boiling, among which there were many mocking voices, and people said that Franklin had done democracy all his life, and when he was in the wilderness, he actually broke the strategy he had insisted on for decades, went against the grain, and embarked on the road of dictatorship, which has to be said to be a great irony!

So much so that Franklin's reputation in the first half of his life was ruined, which also indirectly illustrates a problem, people are selfish, and saints can probably only appear in legends!

To celebrate the rebirth of Bounty Town, Franklin arranged a simple inheritance ceremony, the first in a decade.

Cen Mu can guess his intentions, it is very simple, it is a psychological hint of natural imperial power, this is how the class is generated, this old man is still so obsessed with power at the age of Shimono, it is really embarrassing.

The process of the Inheritance Ceremony is simple: in the town square, Franklin hands over the Platinum Scepter of Glory, which represents the highest power in Bounty Town, to Catherine, and then the Bounty Queen leads the newly formed Council of Citizens to express gratitude to the townspeople, and the ceremony ends with a horse-drawn carriage parade through the main streets of the town.

When Catherine stood quietly on a carriage, wearing a crystal tiara, a white gauze pleated skirt, a crystal clear deep sapphire, and a white gold glory scepter, waving to the people, the townspeople on both sides of the street were dumbfounded, especially the scavengers on the periphery, who had never seen such a touching scene, Catherine, who had been moistened by the rain and dew, at this moment, like the most brilliant jewel in the world, radiant and exuding amazing charm, both men and women, were all stunned by her in an instant.

Someone muttered, "It's so pretty! ”

The most simple rhetoric often best reflects his mood at the moment.

"Alas! I don't know which man will be cheaper in the future! In addition to sighing at the beauty, everyone's logic is to unanimously express such feelings.

"It's probably a very happy thing to be led by such a woman!"

After Catherine's carriage passed, people gradually returned to normal, the boss was changed, and there was a beautiful woman again, and everyone's resistance was much less.

What father doesn't love his daughter?! When he was in the next position, he also took advantage of his lifelong reputation, and this sacrifice was big enough. Looking back, the townspeople reimagined Franklin's approach, and they couldn't help but feel some sympathy.

After all, after being cut off a few catties of flesh and blood, Cen Mu worked hard to get mixed up with the status of a political councilor, and Yun Qi was also able to rank in the carriage convoy because of Cen Mu's face and high-level ability, and he also obtained the status of a councilor.

Looking at the celebratory crowd on both sides, Yun Qi approached and said angrily: "Sitting like this, it's really fucking like a clown, others feel like it's very beautiful, Senator!" Actually! It's just a tongue-wrenching harlequin, that's it! I used to respect this old mayor, but now it seems that he is just a power-hungry old power bag! The older you get, the more confused you get! ”

It seems that he was unhappy with Franklin's series of policies and distribution schemes, and he did.

Lose in hake, but gain in herring. Little Mustard was present, and Cen Mu couldn't say clearly that he had taken Catherine down, and she was now the second-in-command of the Second Xingtian Regiment. However, having said that, if there was no such additional gain, maybe Cen Mu's mood would be the same as Yun Qi's, and he would be angry.

Cen Mu said with a smile: "Old Yun, don't keep staring at the loss in front of you, take a long-term view, I have already told Catherine to support me in building the Church of the God of Good Luck in Bounty Town, this is the biggest gain!" ”

Yun Qi was surprised: "She agreed?" Didn't Franklin say it wasn't allowed? ”

"He's not in charge now." Cen Mu nodded and gestured to the carriage in front of him, and said, "Our female boss is quite easy to talk to. ”

Yun Qi wanted to speak and stopped, paused, and felt unhappy, he asked, "Did you reach any agreement last night?" I found Catherine to be ...... Not in ...... Spend the night in your own room and she ran out of your room early in the morning? Went to see you so early? Let's get better! ”

Cen Mu met his sly gaze, and found that he was pointing something, thinking that he had found something, Cen Mu smiled, touched his nose, and said: "There are some agreements, when I go back to the meeting, I will announce it again, and keep it secret for the time being." ”

Yun Qi showed a knowing smile, shook his head and smiled: "Young! That's nice! ”

Xiao Mustard suddenly interjected: "Brother Xiao Cen, if I build a church here, should I be the chief pastor?" ”

Cen Mu shook his head and said, "No." ”

The hopeful look on Little Mustard's face immediately dimmed, and a wisp of sadness crept up her face.

Cen Mu smiled: "Little mustard, you just caused a big incident yesterday, why did you forget it today?!" You can't be too revealing now, you have to hide yourself, you either follow your uncle, or follow me, you can't be separated for a moment, and the veil on your face is not allowed to be removed! ”

Little Mustard turned from sadness to joy, and said with a smile: "Okay, I know!" ”

At this time, Bounty Town was immersed in a celebratory atmosphere, and a hundred miles away, on a yellow-brown scorched earth, two black shadows leaned against a withered and knotted root, gasping for breath, and in front of them lay a circle of beast corpses, most of them in tatters, each wound filled with a tyrannical aura.

One of the middle-aged men had gray hair, his clothes were tattered and covered with scorching marks, and his hands, body, and waist were tied up with strips of cloth, on which purple-black blood stains oozed; The other was a young man, who was still in good condition, but his right leg was tied so strong that he could not contain the penetration of blood.

The two are Tuoba father and son.

Tuoba Hong licked the dry skin of his mouth, his teeth bit the largest piece of scorched skin, his jaw was wrong, the scorched skin was torn open, and the red blood flowed down from his lips, and he sucked it into his mouth, fishy and salty.

Tuoba Feng was slightly stunned when he saw his action, paused, and said, "Dad, that old ghost is really too treacherous!" On the one hand, we are not allowed to approach Master Cen, and on the other hand, we have reached an agreement with him in private, and we are stabbed twice! It's simply not human! ”

"Benjamin, what I lost today will definitely be taken back with my own hands! You'd better not die too early! Otherwise, I will sprinkle these retribution on Catherine! I'm going to let her taste all the pain of the world! ”

Tuoba Feng hesitated: "Follow...... Catherine doesn't have anything to do with it, right? ”

Tuoba Hong shook his head and sneered, and said: "You will be ruined by her in this life, if you can't let her go, don't follow me, go back to her!" ”

Tuoba Feng said depressedly: "Dad, we are all like this now, you are still talking angry!" ”

Tuoba Hong said angrily, his face was flushed with excitement, and he scolded: "This is not angry words! You don't understand! Lao Tzu has worked hard in Bounty Town for decades, and finally caught such an opportunity to reach the top! Such a good opportunity, let Tuoba Tao go, nine out of ten! You stupid to pick up girls, you pat Lao Tzu's chest! Finally lost to a?! What a fucking shit!! ”

Tuoba Feng was scolded wildly, and he was also stuffy, arguing: "Didn't Uncle Tao keep up? He must have surrendered to Franklin, he is a traitor, and you still praise him?! ”

Tuoba Hong glanced at him with disdain, and said: "That's better than you, the eighth has the principle of the old eight, he does this, at least retains most of the strength of the thunder axe, I make a comeback, and there is still a glimmer of hope." ”

Tuoba Feng pouted, "You knew they would still listen to you?" ”

Tuoba Hong raised his eyebrows, and was about to get angry, but when he saw Tuoba Feng's pitiful appearance, he endured it.

Tuoba Feng asked, "Dad, what do you say...... Yesterday, was that elf-like girl real? I thought I was dazzled! Did she use illusions? ”

Tuoba Hong thought for a moment and muttered, "I don't know if it's an illusion, but I know that she might be a shortcut for me to return to Bounty Town!" ”

"Dad, do you have a plan?" Tuoba Feng asked excitedly.

Tuoba Hong nodded silently.
