The first thousand and forty-fifth chapters of the era of drunken gold fans
In fact, even if the several family leaders at the scene expressed no objections, Vivian herself was not very interested in serving as the "Speaker of the Shadow Parliament", which was laborious and had little benefit, because she knew that the new order of the natural camp would be very chaotic at the beginning.
, she knew that those ethnic groups with constant intrigues and quarrels would not obey the restrictions honestly. She knew that there were still many people who did not care about a stable and prosperous new life. They just wanted to rush out of the shelter and make a bad breath in human society.
, there are even some stupid people who simply hope to show their strength in front of "weak" mortals, and these messy things will annoy her.
More importantly, Vivian felt that she had a more important mission and existence value beside Hao Ren. She had to cook, mop the floor, wash Hao Ren's clothes and change Doudou's water. The countess was busy.
Now, how can I have the time to deal with the issue of "new world order"?
But it was one thing that she was not willing to serve as the Speaker, and it was another thing to be pointed out in this way by others. The Countess was immediately embarrassed and unhappy. She really wanted to beat up the juniors in front of her, but she thought about it.
, felt that he had to pay attention to his image as an elder, so he could only smile indifferently: "You've been itchy since I haven't slapped you for three days and I haven't slapped you for hundreds of years, right?"
Representatives from all parties quickly denied it, while Vivian waved her hands magnanimously: "Okay, in fact, what you said makes sense. I am not suitable to be the 'speaker' in all aspects. Old qualifications does not mean that I am capable.
I know I'm not good at this. You can nominate your own candidates, but I think I still have a special seat in this 'Shadow Council', right?"
"Of course," Gene Lucas put his right hand on his chest and bowed slightly, with thoughtful and elegant etiquette, "Your Excellency, the Countess, will always have a place in the Shadow Council, just like you have a place in all associations, secret societies, and councils throughout the ages.
Your special place.”
When Hao Ren heard this, he was immediately curious. He leaned next to Vivian and whispered: "Special position? What does it mean?"
"Just like today, we broke into their high-level meeting and made comments." Vivian said casually.
As the oldest alien in the world, as a person who has met almost every natural group in the world, participated in every epic event, and was the most powerful life form on this planet in its heyday, Vivian has unique qualities in any camp.
An unwritten privilege, this privilege is not just as simple as "giving her some face". It means that if she is willing, she can express her opinion on any natural force, and this opinion will be greatly respected.
She is a sage and elder recognized by all forces. Even if she is poor, even if she is driven crazy by people every now and then. Even if she is a weirdo who wanders around the human world all day long and likes to live with humans, she still gets this kind of natural treatment.
Vivian has never participated in any alien forces. She does not belong to any family, nor does she have a family under her own name, nor has she participated in various associations organized by aliens. But if she wants to express her thoughts on these forces, all
Everyone must listen honestly, even werewolves are no exception. Although she had many fights with other races in the past, when disputes occurred between these groups, she also acted as a "passing expert" more than once.
Arbitration and conciliation.
When she is frantic, everyone regards her as a moving natural disaster, but when she is calm, everyone respects her.
Vivian is such a great contradictory being in the circle of natural creatures, moody and awe-inspiring. Today, when the family representatives at the Athens Sanctuary are holding a high-level meeting, she can break in and criticize. Tomorrow
, after the establishment of the Shadow Council, if she felt unhappy, she could still run to their headquarters and have a blast. She was qualified by default to participate in any meeting of any ethnic group. This was Vivian's "special position".
Without thousands of years of life and experience in the mythical age, it is difficult for ordinary people to understand this phenomenon.
Hao Ren doesn't understand either, and he has no interest in understanding. He can almost never feel how great Vivian is in the circle of natural creatures. Of course, he will occasionally marvel, but after that, that's it.
, he prefers to marvel at Vivian’s cooking skills and her wealth fortune that can make her lose all her money just by going out to buy a popsicle.
After the general concept of "Shadow Parliament" was thrown out and accepted by everyone, Hao Ren didn't have much interest in this matter. He was a neutral observer, so he had no interest in participating in the management and control of any force.
Monitor the situation more closely. Only when the situation gets out of hand will you intervene. So he left the conference room and went outside with Vivian to get some fresh air.
Others move freely.
Calm has returned to the square outside the meeting hall, with only a few people walking around in the empty square. Those who had gathered to make trouble before were like senior extras. When the filming started, the crowd was so excited that they dispersed as soon as the lunch box was packed.
Got it clean.
They didn't even leave any household garbage behind. This quality impressed Hao Ren.
"They were not like this before," Vivian stood next to Hao Ren and looked at the empty square, then glanced slightly at the meeting hall behind her. "These races were originally violent and war criminals. They would fight if they disagreed.
Elements, although they also engage in intrigues, they are all "above and aboveboard intrigues". But I didn't expect that they have also learned these tricks of human beings. They are building public opinion, exerting pressure internally and externally, expressing their positions in a roundabout way, and fighting for hidden territory.
Benefits. Tsk tsk. Although I knew they were always changing, this change is still surprising."
"Because they have long been attached to human civilization," Hao Ren said casually, "so they are becoming more and more like humans."
"You seem to have some questions?" Vivian looked at Hao Ren with a smile.
"I just didn't expect them to be persuaded to come down," Hao Ren scratched his head. He knew that Vivian had delicate thoughts, but he didn't expect that the doubts in his mind would be seen so easily. "I thought he
We want to seize glory."
Vivian just smiled and looked up at the city streets in the distance. After a long time, she suddenly said: "Did you notice that this new street uses electric lights?"
Hao Ren: "Ah?"
"Actually, it's not you and I who persuaded these people. Although our negotiation today was also very effective, these guys are very stubborn. What really determines their behavior is their own judgment," Vivian folded her arms and said at the corner of her mouth
Qiao Qiao said, "Even if we don't come, they won't really carry out any counterattack on the earth, and they won't allow anyone else to do this. Do you think they are stupid? They have long enjoyed the convenience of modern society, and they know that the world has already
How comfortable it is to be transformed by humans. The development of humans for thousands of years has not only replaced the status of the "gods", but more importantly, it has developed the world from a barbaric state to the present level. This is an era of enjoyment,
Civil aviation aircraft can fly faster than any vampire, the tools produced by modern industry are more convenient than anything in ancient times, mobile phones are more convenient than communication magic, and tablet computers can crush all classical entertainment. Those who are immersed in this have long been
Intoxicated with life and money.
"So, do you think they would allow someone to destroy this comfortable and beautiful era?
"Of course they don't allow it, they have to enjoy all this more. What they want is profit, not war and ruins. Only people who have nothing will fight with passion, because they only have passion, and in the shelter
Any guy who is not too miserable will not do this. They have too much, so they will not give it up easily. All they want is to be freer and enjoy this era more simply. So when the Witcher disappears
After that, what they thought about was not at all about fighting for hegemony from humans, because this 'hegemony' meant the barren and barbaric old world. What they wanted was just to get out of the shelter and openly embrace this new world. And that was all they wanted.
The big family has set this unspoken rule, and those little guys jumping around are just pawns they throw out to wave flags and create noise. The farce in the square was not for any reason to set off a counterattack, it was just for some big families to
Fishing in troubled waters."
Hao Ren thought for a while and shook his head: "It's too confusing and I can't understand it."
"To be honest, I don't quite understand their thinking, but whether they are humans or aliens, they have been developing in such a noisy way for thousands of years," Vivian curled her lips, "It's very troublesome and boring, and many people enjoy it endlessly."
Hao Ren smiled helplessly and said nothing. He just stood next to Vivian and looked up at the chaotic shadow dome of the shelter.
Soon, this dome will be useless. (To be continued.)
When the ground comes down and the clouds come down, come to the pavilion and you can get the view.】
