【42 years of disaster】

After the return of human hero Asa Akto, the City of Doomsday prepared a grand dinner for him.

The camp territory belonging to the Doomsday City, the neutral gathering place, and the small free cities sent people to attend the dinner to express their attitude.

The dinner was set up in the Great Hall of the Outer City of Doomsday, and the scent of desserts lingered in the soft hall.

People in formal clothes held up their wine glasses and talked. The white long tablecloth was swaying the lower half of the corner like cream, and from time to time, messengers carrying trays walked by.

The scene can only be described as "upper".

People whispered, the topic was simple and restrained, and no one wanted to make a mistake on such an important day - they all wanted to see Aktor, who had been regarded as God for the past 10 years.

The information left by Aktor made the technology of Doomsday City visible to the naked eye. Such a person who led their existence from the perspective of scientific and technological resources and thoughts almost became a brand new artificial god.

Anjie was the host of the banquet. She stood at the door of the banquet hall and waited to greet one guests after another.

The alliance of the Free Alliance, Chang Andevis, Baird of the Inquisition, Anita of the Yaoguang Mercenary Legion, Yalin, the city lord of the City of Hope, Bog of the City of Antofa, Doris and Rayshaw of the Group...

The Battle of Dawn has been launched for 10 years, and the situation is extremely chaotic, and various small forces have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. Even there are divisions and reunions within the camp, and those in the same camp are not venting their anger. Naturally, these guests also have people with ulterior motives.

"Su Mingan's attitude is so majestic that all the overlords attend his dinner like they are coming to a pilgrimage."

In the corner, Windsor, a remote control legion player in a white dress, looked up. She was an angel player with clean and fair skin that was almost transparent.

"He is indeed worthy of these glory," said Rimusheng.

He leaned his scabbard against the wall and sorted out the suit that he didn't fit in with.

Their remote control legion team had already been involved in the battle group early in the morning and now they also acted together in Keusta. At this banquet, 20% of the participants were players, and they mingled in the dessert area to eat desserts.

"Speaking of this, there are not many chaos in Doomsday City in the past 10 years." Player Ruiying said: "Akto has not appeared for 10 years. Many people have not obeyed the leadership of Tretia and others over the years."

"But now Akto is back." Rimusheng looked at the banquet hall where the heroes gathered: "Then even if the former leader made mistakes, Akto is absolutely 'correct', and he is enough to clear the hidden dangers of the city-state in an instant."

Ri Musheng noticed that behind the white curtains not far away was an inconspicuous figure.

——That's Sen Kelstia.

Sen Kelstia is the deputy lord of Doomsday City and the original leader who started with Actor. Even Tretia has a reputation as much as him.

But Sen's extremely high reputation and status were limited to 10 years ago.

It is impossible for humans to have no desires and selfish interests. If a person sits in a high position for a long time and does not have enough supervision, he will make mistakes sooner or later. Sen is the example.

He made a fatal mistake. In the sixth year of the Battle of Dawn, in order to save his dying son, he privately called for medical resources that should have been allocated to the reconnaissance team, which resulted in a team of reconnaissance teams being unable to treat them and was wiped out.

This incident shocked Doomsday City. Although it is common for death to go out to work, they should not die in the hands of their own family.

People have doubts about the fairness of the leadership class in Doomsday City - Akto has not appeared for several years. Is it because of the leadership class represented by Tretia and others who imprisoned him and were holding his name and shaking his skin?

Sen is a hero of Kaicheng, who has worked hard and made great contributions. He has been working diligently for six years. Almost all the small commanders of the Doomsday City are from Fenghuo. The interests of Doomsday City are united together, and the top leaders are unwilling to punish Sen to calm the anger of the people.

As a result, a public opinion storm broke out, and the families of the reconnaissance team made a fuss about this.

Sen regretted and suffered. He protected these residents for so many years and was willing to sacrifice for the city-state. He knew that he had killed the reconnaissance team. In order not to make things difficult for Tretia and others, he took the initiative to eliminate all military positions and fame and fortune, and locked his blood cloak into the cabinet.

The dignified lord in front of the beacon actually turned into a despised rat crossing the street.

Sen was standing next to the curtain at this time, his body was almost hidden in the shadow, and his face no longer had the energy he was as strong as 10 years old. He was obviously only forty years old, but he looked like an old man.

“…He’s here.”

Suddenly, at this moment, someone whispered softly, and the hall was silent in an instant.

I saw a young man with extraordinary aura and handsome face coming to the door, which made people recognize him at a glance. Over the years, his face has often lit up on LED screens in various cities.

In the middle of the City of Doomsday, there is also a bronze statue of him. A fountain and garden are built around the statue for people to rest and admire.

The hall suddenly became quiet, and people almost dared not recognize him. Akto did not look like the information said, a powerful warrior who could use one person to stop the disaster of strange beasts. He was like a scholar without any strength, without any blood or hostility on his body.

It's more like a... very suitable for a noble young man in the banquet hall.

Su Mingan did not speak at this time, and neither the aura of missionary nor the passive faith played a role. In people's eyes, he was not even as majestic as he was telling the story of the lighthouse on the screen.

Su Mingan looked around and saw many strange faces. At this moment, he vaguely felt what the 10 years of human beings mean.

Infants and young children can grow into children, children can become teenagers, and middle-aged people will turn white. Some old people who are drooping and old will completely disappear.

Cheng Luohe, a child holding a vermilion sniper rifle, grew up and became a young man in his early twenties. Yaowen also became the captain of an elite reconnaissance team, with a stinking face in the corner.

Xia Sheng had no change, and he still looked so cold and solemn. Staci, Jocelyn and others were much more mature, and they even wore wedding rings on their hands.

Su Mingan recalled the news collected by AI Yeya over the past 10 years.

...People will change.

If these people had always been the small leaders in the shelter and had only a few hundred people on hand, they would not be obsessed with profit and just wanted to survive together. But if their horizons were relaxed, there would be more and more people on hand, even to the point where millions of people had to rely on Doomsday City... the people would have completely changed.

They would not help but think... Since they are already a hero in the city and have such a great power and such a high reputation, why can't they make a little progress?

They also have relatives, some have children. In such a world of stagnation... they really want to consider the next generation and are unwilling to give people the resources and status they hold tightly.

In the past 10 years, there have been many intrigues among the top leaders of Doomsday City. Rongyuan even got married and established a family, hooking his friends during the catastrophe in the century to create a large number of illegitimate children, busy fighting for power and profit, trying to turn the Second Legion into his family's private army.

In order to balance him, Tretia formed an alliance with the surrounding city of Hope, Antofa, and Beatlis, and carried out a bunch of Tongmenghui puppets to fight with his relatives and officers. Even Xia Sheng, who was not concerned about power, was implicated and forced to help her Tongmenghui improve her voice.

Marcia, the main member of Fenghuo, was even more unwilling to be lonely and took the initiative to join the trial office. He used Sen's blessing to drive away dissidents on the grounds of judging the heresy of gods and heresy, and removed a bunch of wings of the commanders such as Joslin.

As soon as Akto disappeared, these people seemed to have lost their backbone and could not suppress anyone. Doomsday City successively established the Federal Parliament, the Core Committee, the Union Society and the Tribunal, and there were thirteen major commanders, forty-seven minor commanders, three marshals, and three major legions, which divided the power into a mess.

These people have never made major principled mistakes, but various small power disasters emerge one after another, and even cultivated their own direct descendants.

Looking at the banquet hall that seemed calm but privately surged, Su Mingan sighed.

"Welcome back, Lord Akto."

"City Lord, where have you been in the past 10 years? We have always missed you..."

"The total war has begun. City Lord, are you interested in visiting the Third Legion? The commander of the Legion Carlement has always regarded you as a teacher in the field of machinery. He has a gift to give to you."

The people around him greeted him with a smile, very flattering. Even An Jie, who came with him on his own, had awe and alienation on her face. She no longer dared to pat her shoulder and talk and laugh like she did 10 years ago.

Such an elegant, extravagant and soft banquet was even worse than the members of the beacon fire who were shaking in the cold winter 10 years ago, drinking sweet potato porridge around the fire to keep warm, and trembling in the cold night.

For the first time, he felt that time was such a magical thing.

[It can make a person like another person and make a city full of chaos.]

...

In the remote tea hall, Mercury Yuan helped a white-haired young man sort out the last wrinkles of his Hanfu.

"Peg, remember, you must do your best to please the city lord later." Rongyuan said.

"I get it." said the young man.

"Akto and Lin Guang were so close before. Who knows whether Akto will maintain his original intention after 10 years... But this is not important. Whether he maintains his original intention or not, he is the city lord. As soon as he spoke, we can have so much glory. Only by holding his thighs can we continue to be rich." Rongyuan patted the young man's shoulder:

"I asked a lot of people, and they said that Akto likes young people with gray hair very much. If you try to please him, maybe he can give you some official positions."

The white-haired young man is named Peg, and he is his nephew and can be his help to win over the city lord.

Peg walked out of the tea room, his slightly long hair hanging from his ears, his eyes as light as snow. The black and white Hanfu was particularly conspicuous in the banquet hall.

The deputy city lord Antofa City, who was talking about the military sending with Su Mingan, saw Su Mingan's eyes change.

The deputy city lord of Antofa turned his head and looked at the white-haired young man walking over, as if he realized an additional road close to the city lord.

...By the way, why didn't he think about giving white hair to the city lord?

"Hmm?" In the corner, the blue-haired player Yuna saw the white-haired young man walking over and said in surprise: "Is that person Lu Shu?"

Next to her teammate Jin Chendong narrowed his eyes:

"No, I'm just a NPC who looks very similar. Most of the commander has introduced it to please Su Mingan."

Jin Chendong shook his head: "If this continues, there will probably be someone playing Cheng Yueyue, or Cheng Noor, and even someone playing Cheng Xisin Naraku... These people can really do anything to fight for power and profit."

"Why do I feel that Su Mingan is like a newly promoted emperor? These treacherous ministers are frantically stuffing concubines to his harem..." Player Milala said sharply.

Player Gu Kaishun said: "White and delicate, how old is he now?"

Everyone looked at Gu Kai and Gu Kai shut up.

"I just heard Su Mingan's reply to the deputy city lord of Antofa City, Su Mingan said one by one." Jin Chendong sighed: "It seems that this ninth world has given him a lot of help - the first player can play power tricks now."

After hearing Jin Chendong's words, the eyes of several people changed slightly.

The first player can actually play power tricks...

"It is said that all those who pass the level perfectly can make a wish..." Yuna lowered her head and curled her blue hair with her fingers.

"Our team has some strength, so it's time to consider the issue of taking the team. If we stand in the right team, maybe we can still be like the people in the Fenghuo Shelter after the World Games end, like the people in the Fenghuo Shelter." Jin Chendong said: "Edward will definitely lose, Mizushimakawa...then the state will probably not last long, if we can help Su Mingan..."

They whispered.

In another corner, Yueyue, wearing a red rose evening dress, lowered her eyes and sighed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Lu asked her in a low voice.

"Look at him..." Yueyue looked at the center of the banquet hall, and the young man who responded to all the guests freely: "He has really changed a lot compared to when I met him in the fifth world."

She bit her lip.

She remembered the screen recording she had watched. At the end of the fifth world, the clone who made generous words at the Human Rescue Conference...

Su Mingan is very similar to the Ming Dynasty at that time.

"Is he... more and more clear?" she said.
