Section 225 Guns and Roses (II)
"You look at the guitar they have, it's a wonderful invention. Huo Qiu, an expert in the study of flesh and skin, said: "In the eyes of many flesh and bones, what does it look like?
He winced his eyebrows and pointed to Rand's lower body, "So, this phenomenon is actually a fertility cult. Also, notice that there is a certain degree of resemblance between the guitar and a woman's body, when the guitarist stands on the stage, puts the guitar in front of the crotch, plucks the strings with one hand, and slides the other hand up and down the handlebar, it will make the girls associate and suggest. โ
Rand looked at his friend speechlessly, and Hocho couldn't help but laugh.
At the climax of the performance on stage, the lights went out and everything except the stage became dark.
But it doesn't matter, some fans stretched out their fingers, and a bright cloud popped out of their fingertips, and among the people who came to listen to the song must be a Skynet Arcanist or a real magician.
The sporadic illumination light floated in the theater like glowworms, and people waved their fingers to form a thin trail of light, and it was a perfect performance.
However, accidents always happen, otherwise they wouldn't be called accidents.
There was a loud bang at the door of the Grand Theater, and the heavy door was pushed open.
The crowd was still immersed in the music, and the four performers on stage were also playing intently, except for the people closest to the door in the back row.
A crowd poured in, mostly young people, and most of them were Terrans, and only a third were orc youths.
Although their clothes are different, they are almost uniform in color, and they are all blue. Even if there is a difference in the navy light blue. But it means they're organized. Otherwise, I wouldn't have paid attention to this in the details.
They also wore white headbands on their heads, and the orc youths had white armbands on their arms.
They came in shouting slogans, and they all raised their right arms and shouted: "Down with the black-hearted capitalist Liziba! Oppose the criminal ambergris trade, stop all aggression against the Azure Continent, long live freedom! Long live equality!"
The unanimous roar of these young people interrupted the singing in the Grand Theater, and the four members of Guns and Roses on the stage had to stop, looking at the sudden group of people in amazement.
The stage performance stopped. The audience in front of them finally sensed that something was not quite right, and they all stood up and looked back, and some of them did not listen to the persuasion of their companions, and left their seats to teach this group of crazy people a lesson.
But before anyone could get closer, the orc youth who rushed in the group of young people came out more and more, subdued the other party, and pushed him to the ground with his arms clasped behind his back.
"What for?"
"What's going on?"
People asked each other, not understanding what was going on.
"Quiet, quiet, we are the Freedom and Equality Society. The occupation of the Grand Theatre has now been officially announced, and Salomon Entertainment Limited and the government have been demanded to hand over the Luxe Blossom. She is the initiator of the sinful ambergris trade, it is she who has caused great suffering to the Emerald Continent, and the crimes she has committed must be liquidated. "In the crowd that rushed in, a leader-like man stepped out, followed by a law enforcement team of orc youths, each with a white armband on his arm.
Surrounded by a group of powerful orc youths, he walked all the way to the stage of the Guns and Roses show, and snatched the guitar of the rhythm guitarist Gith, and his rough behavior made Gise angry, and another member of the band, Dagu, rushed forward excitedly.
However, at least four young people of the Tygo tribe immediately rushed over from the law enforcement team of the Free and Equal Society to stop him, Tygo and the Rhine have always been at odds, the Rhine is the majority in Asturias, and Tygo only has a small number of immigrants who have emigrated, usually the young people of the two races will still fight privately, usually the Rhine beats the young people of Tygo to escape, but at this moment on this stage, Dagu alone will definitely not be able to do the four Tygo in front of him.
"Damn, I've met these political lunatics. Huo Qiu in the audience was slightly nervous and cursed.
Rand couldn't help frowning, he would rather continue to listen to Huo Qiu than encounter this kind of thing.
He had heard of this Freedom and Equality Society at school, and even had members in the Hyde branch, but most of them were students.
This society was the periphery of the Fury Party, which was a new party, and only the Demoxius Party and the Sainz Party succeeded in forming a government before the Fury Party.
Since Queen Tiffany overthrew the brutal Margaret through the glorious Revolution, the political system of Asturias has changed, with the old aristocracy sharing political power with the new classes, including a large number of mages who defected to the kingdom and led the development of the magic, as well as the merchant class who financed the development of the kingdom and the study of magic.
In the first upper and lower courts, the upper houses were mostly old aristocrats, while the lower houses poured into the new class in large numbers.
But with the development of the kingdom, this situation gradually changed, and the boundaries between the old nobles and merchants were blurred, because once the nobles got used to it, they actually had many advantages, whether it was in terms of connections or residual privileges, even if it was money, even if it was a broken settlement, there were three points of nails.
An example of the transformation of the aristocracy is the Bernadotte family, the elder Bernadotte was born into a ruined aristocratic family, but now he founded his own family and became a member of the House of Commons, and the Jimenez family, who was close friends with him, is an example of the success of the adventurer.
Therefore, in politics, more and more people begin to form circles with their own interests and political goals or political ideals, and then form parties.
After the Ambergris War, the Demosis Party was founded successively, the Demoxius Party's political slogan was democracy, and its main members consisted of the aristocracy and merchant class who had become factory owners and run companies, while the Synzus Party was composed of many magicians and mage merchants, and their political views were different from the Demoxis, believing that the driving force of the world lay in the study of magic and the industrialization supported by the development of magic.
Although the views of the two parties are different, there are some overlapping interests, such as the fact that the changes brought about by the study of magic will also increase the profits of the Demoxis.
The Demosis Party and Sainz have two more nicknames, known as the Sweet Party and the Salty Party, respectively.
The reason for these two eccentric names is that the leaders of the two parties, Benjamin and Austin, had different hobbies when it came to drinking tea, and Benjamin's style of drinking tea maintained the habits of the traditional aristocracy. Black tea must be used for tea. It is also the standard afternoon tea mode when drinking. Because of his friendship with many magicians, Lord Austin has also been affected in his living habits to a certain extent, and likes to try some new things, so he drinks tea not only like the black tea of the Emerald Continent, but also the green tea of some heterogeneous planes, and he also likes it, and has learned to use the way of boiling tea and salt from heterogeneous planes.
The very different ways of drinking tea between the leaders of the two parties are usually as big as bills when the two parties are at odds with each other, usually when deciding which groups the kingdom's policies favor towards. As small as daily habits will become an incident of quarrels among parliamentarians, so whether to add sugar or salt to tea has also become one of the symbols of the two parties.
As for the Fury Party, with the abdication of Queen Thivanie, the role of the royal family as the third pole of balance has become smaller, and new political forces will inevitably emerge.
Beginning about a decade ago, the Fury Party emerged as an emerging party and won seats in both houses.
The Fury Party advocated freedom, and they believed that thirty years earlier, and even more sixty years earlier, the royal family and government had fooled the people from the first war of ambergris. Through the manipulation of public opinion and other means, internal pressure. and waging wars of aggression against foreign countries.
Their political ideas were supported by some low-level workers' organizations and students, and they won more than a dozen seats in the House of Commons, and these dozen or so members of parliament proposed a bill to remove the restrictions on the arbitrary movement of wood elves and a few orc immigrants (mainly against the orc tribes such as Tiger, who came from Aurora), claiming that it was against the spirit of freedom.
This bill was a sensation back then, and the reason why there was a bill restricting the free movement of the Wood Elves was because the Wood Elves were forced to integrate into Asturias after the defeat, and the kingdom was worried that the Wood Elves would still resist and cause an incident, so they were scattered and not allowed to move at will. In fact, after many years, as the Wood Elves got used to life in Asturias, and the kingdom did ensure the personal safety of the Wood Elf residents, the Wood Elves were not much different from other Asturians.
But when the Fury Party used this as an opportunity to fire the first shot, everyone was reminded of this, and the Wood Elves also rarely united, and their members responded to the Fury Party in parliament and completely canceled the bill.
At that time, the Demoxius Party was in power, and they actually had no ill will towards the Wood Elves, but they were very angry that a small emerging party of the Fury Party dared to make such a challenge, but the Prime Minister at that time, Benjamin, the leader of the Demoxius Party, underestimated the determination and influence of the Fury Party, and was successfully made a big fuss about the relationship between democracy and freedom by the Fury Party, and as a result, in the parliamentary debate, the Demosy Party, which had a clear advantage, did not veto the bill, but was passed by a majority, including some Demosy Party members voted in favorใ
The Fury Party became an instant hit, and over the years, it became the third largest party in Parliament, enough to affect the balance between the House of Democi and the Sains.
However, Fury's party does not seem to have any intention of uniting with either of the two parties to gain the power to form a government, but is ambitiously trying to replace one of the two parties and form a government independently.
This party is more radical than the two parties, and because it is a rising star, although it has the support of some people because of the relocation restriction proposal, they still seem to feel that it is not enough, and they have been looking for opportunities for more development.
On stage, the leader of the Freedom and Equality Society gave a speech with impassioned waving his hands, complaining to the audience in the theater that the ambergris trade was a criminal war, and that the greatest cause of such a tragedy was that the kingdom and the government had restricted the people's freedom to know the truth.
He frothed at the mouth of the froth and spoke to the crowd about the Fury's proposals, both freedom and equality in the long term, and the fight for the right to vote in the medium term, which meant universal suffrage for every citizen of the kingdom.
The immediate goal is to reveal to everyone the astonishing fact that the ambergris trade and its wars sixty years ago were a criminal war, an unjust war waged by a few to kidnap the majority for profit, and that although Asturias was one of the victors, the suffering was not confined to another continent.
For this reason, the Society of Freedom and Equality demanded that the aforementioned Lady Lizzie be tried, because after a detailed investigation and verification, it was determined that it was she who had sold the sinful thing of ambergris to the High Elves in the first place.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have no intention of reckoning with every crime committed in the Ambergris War, because there are too many, and there are many people who have been deceived and fooled by the government of the time, and they did not mean it. But we demand that people like Lizzie be held accountable for their crimes, because we have to show that justice may come late, but it will come eventually!"
Of course, there is a reason why the Freedom and Equality Society came here to cause trouble, because the Times Theater is the property of Salomon Entertainment Co., Ltd., and it is believed that the lady has always controlled it.
There was a lot of chaos in the Grand Theater, people who had come to watch the performance, but they were interrupted by this group of liberals and occupied the stage, and there were already people in the audience who were in contact with them and ready to do something to them, but the president's statement and the final declaration of justice actually moved some people, so the audience in the theater was divided into several factions, some supported, some opposed, some neutral, some just wanted to watch the performance, and some coaxed the people of the Freedom and Equality Society to perform instead of Guns and Roses.
Hocho cursed in a low voice, he didn't have much affection for the Fury, and the Bernadottes and Jimenez were both Demoxites.
And Rand on the side moved in his heart, and muttered in his mouth: "Jade Continent?"
The surroundings were too noisy, Huo Qiu didn't hear what he said, and couldn't help but ask blankly, "What did you say?"
Rand smiled slightly, "I said that I found a way to get rid of the family arrangement for the time being. (To be continued.) )
