Collectors of Beauty World

Chapter 152 I want to be the city lord

Sofia finally began to realize that something was wrong.The weird magician in front of him has an unusual number of cards in his hand.

Moreover, the other party's magic claimed to be from the same school, which was completely different from the magic system he knew.This made this fight actually very uncomfortable for her.

The key is that in the later stages of the game, she noticed a very critical problem.That is the guy in front of me, there seems to be something wrong.

His own fear magic had no effect on him.This person appears to be human, but appears to be some kind of special magical creature, perhaps even a demigod.

She actually guessed it right.Lu Xiao was really a demigod, but he was a little different from the demigod she imagined.

The demigods in this world are a real level.From legend to demigod, one step at a time.

But Lu Xiao is actually different.For him, there are actually no steps.In theory he is already a god.Because all the steps leading to the gods have been leveled.

But his divine power is very weak.Completely unable to meet the standards of a god or even a demigod.

Therefore, he is actually a child god.He can even do nothing. As long as he grows up, he will naturally become a complete god.But demigods cannot do this.If they do nothing.In the end, it can only be a gradual death of old age.

The cursed dagger was very scary, so Lu Xiao had naturally taken precautions against it.Sofina's teleportation magic is not unlimited.Her robes need some time to cool down.

Therefore, her previous close attack completely ruined the duel.

The Spear of Judgment in Lu Xiao's hand is a more dangerous weapon than the cursed dagger.

The spear swept across, Sophie's body was retreating, and her body was still scratched by the suddenly extended spear.

Neither her protective magic nor the magic robe could resist the attack of the Spear of Judgment.

At the same time, the Eye of Shangri-La in the sky was activated by Lu Xiao.A ray of hot sunlight fell from the sky and enveloped Sophia.

In Lu Xiao's understanding, light magic must be used to deal with the necromancer.Especially since he is still using magic after the sunlight gathers.In theory, it can be said to be the absolute nemesis of undead creatures.

Sophia screamed.The whole person turned into a red mist, seeming to be preparing to escape from the battlefield.But the Eye of Shangri-La in the sky, like the Eye of Heaven, followed her movements.

Dazzling golden light filled the entire arena.A few monsters hiding in the corner that were lucky enough to survive were roasted to a half-cooked texture by Lu Xiao's magic.

Sophia's body popped out of the shadows again.Magic power surged around her body, and she seemed to want to use some magic.But a golden light flashed before her eyes, and a golden spear pierced her body.

Although the Spear of Judgment does not have the bonus of Anubis.But this thing is still a first-class powerful magic weapon.And it has powerful demon-breaking properties.

Sophia's defensive magic had no effect at all, and she was directly nailed to the ground by the spear.

She roared angrily, but the effect of the Spear of Judgment still made it impossible for her to cast other spells.As for physical strength, she was completely unable to compare with Lu Xiao.

At this time, several other people finally dared to appear on the battlefield.When they arrived before, they planned to step forward to help.But after Lu Xiao performed solar magic.A few of them wisely chose to hide in the shadows and watch the battle.

It wasn't until Lu Xiao pinned Sophia to the ground that they finally dared to appear on the battlefield.

"Before this, I never thought that magicians could be so dangerous. Why can't the ones I've seen do it to this extent?"

Adkin looked at Simon again.But this time Simon didn't respond to him.Instead, he looked at Lu Xiao not far away with an adoring gaze.

As a spellcaster, who would think about just tinkering with some unfashionable little spells every day.Like Lu Xiao and Sophia, those who have full control over elements, nature, space, and time are magicians in the true sense.

Lu Xiao didn't pay attention to Simon's eyes.He is more interested in Sophia now.Because he found Sophia's body interesting.

As a necromancer, Lu Xiao had thought that this guy was not a human in the conventional sense.But in fact, she is more complicated than she seems.

Her body is strange.It looks like a body of flesh and blood.But the wound won't bleed at all.But it's not the undead body as imagined.

Lu Xiao had never really understood the necromancers in this world.What's more, the person behind Sophia is said to be a master-level figure among the necromancers.Therefore, the existence of Sophia is still very meaningful for research.

Edkin's idea was to hand Sofia over to the Harpers.They have special prisons to hold these red-robed mages.

But Lu Xiao directly rejected his proposal.

"Go back and tell the Harper Alliance that you can ask for Sophia. But I need them to do one thing for me."

"Actually, you don't have to do this. You defeated Sophia and saved Neverwinter. The entire Harper Alliance will be happy to help you."

"No, what I want to do is just helping me is not enough. I need them to use more resources to help me do this."

"what do you want?"

"You'll know then."

Lu Xiao has been bringing the ground for some time.But he never found any trace of the fragments.

The most important thing is that the standard of combat power in this world is really high.Moreover, the gods were too close, and he did not dare to be too high-profile.

The Harpers are not a powerful organization in this world.But their intelligence network is very large.A thief like Edkin, who wants combat power but not strength, and intelligence but not IQ, can dominate the team because he is a Harper and can always get more information.

Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that several other people are too dishonest.

Neverwinter was saved, and the evil red-robed mage was defeated.But the most embarrassing thing is that the culprit of all this is actually the city lord of his own family.

Although Fletcher did not die, his crimes were fully publicized.Suddenly he became a criminal who everyone shouted to beat.

Fletcher's ending is a small problem. The most important thing is that Neverwinter is now leaderless.

Fletcher's impact is not just the loss of a city lord.A large number of city guards who conspired with him were also implicated.

Together with him, these people plotted to acquire the assets of wealthy merchants and nobles in other cities.You will naturally be held accountable afterwards.

As a result, this prosperous city was missing its city lord and a considerable part of its defense force.

Some nobles in the city immediately held a meeting to elect a new city lord.

Several other surrounding cities also sent delegations to try to intervene in this matter.At the same time, they all had a tacit understanding, that is, they unanimously ignored Lu Xiao's existence.

Although Lu Xiao saved the city and defeated the evil red-robed mage.But between his heroic actions, he is recognized as a good guy.Since he is a good person, he must be bullied.Therefore, Lu Xiao was naturally kicked out of the reconstruction meeting.After all, Neverwinter is a huge piece of fat.Who wouldn’t want to take a few more bites?

Lu Xiao almost laughed out loud after hearing the news.

"Okay, since Neverwinter City is going to hold a reconstruction meeting. Let's discuss now, who is more suitable to be the city leader?"

Lu Xiao said this to Adkin and others.This made several people look confused.

"But the reconstruction meeting was held in the city lord's palace."

"No, this is the real reconstruction meeting. I need you to vote now. Who do you think is the most suitable to be the city leader?"

Lu Xiao actually didn't care about this so-called city lord position at first.He couldn't stay in this world forever anyway.

But just because he doesn't do it doesn't mean he likes to be ignored by others.Especially if you think about it carefully, as the city lord of Neverwinter City, he will naturally have more resources in his hands.

Moreover, with different status, it will be much easier to act in this world.

Although Edkin is not very smart.But at least it's better than others.He was the first to see something was wrong with Lu Xiao.

"Well, judging from the configuration of our team, I would first recommend you as the city lord. After all, among us, no one is more suitable to be the city lord than you."

"I support you too." These were the words of the half-elf druid.

"I agree." This is Horgai the Barbarian.

As for the warlock Simon, he is now Lu Xiao’s disciple, so it goes without saying.In addition, the little girl Qi La who was rescued also gave Lu Xiao a vote.

"Very good, it has been unanimously approved. Therefore, I am now the Lord of Neverwinter City."

".However, there may be different opinions at that meeting." Adkin said cautiously.

"No, they won't." When he said this, Lu Xiao's tone began to become dangerous.

In the City Lord's Mansion, a reconstruction meeting is being held.A large number of nobles and wealthy businessmen gathered together and were trying to carve up the city.

And at this time, the door opened.Lu Xiao walked into the conference room with several members of the protagonist group.

"I'm sorry everyone, but the meeting is over. Now I announce as the city lord of Neverwinter that you will be expelled from Neverwinter City from now on. This decree takes effect immediately."

Next to him, Horgai stepped forward in a ruthless manner. The giant ax in his hand made the scalps of these nobles go numb.

A barbarian warrior carrying an ax stares at you fiercely, who would not be afraid to see it.

There are several guards in the conference room.They originally planned to draw their swords.But when he saw it was Lu Xiao, he retracted his sword rationally.

Many people saw the fight between Lu Xiao and Sophia that day.Even if you can't see it, it's not fake that the super arena, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, was almost razed to the ground.

The man in front of him is undoubtedly a magic master.And there was a barbarian warrior in front of him.This combination makes people lose the energy to draw their swords after seeing it.

The nobles at the meeting were stunned for a moment.Then there was an explosion.They didn't expect that Lu Xiao would suddenly come out and do something like this.

"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry that the Reconstruction Committee did not nominate you for election."

"Really? Then I request the implementation of the emergency plan."

At this moment, everyone in the conference room suddenly changed their expressions.Neverwinter City has been established for a long time, regardless of whether the law is fair or unfair.But every aspect is taken into account.

In this situation where the city owner is suddenly lost, an emergency plan can be used.That means bypassing nominations from various committees and layers of screening.An acting city lord is selected directly through public opinion.

This plan has never been used since its inception.the reason is simple.How could the city lord be elected based on public opinion?

Just like Fletcher before, he was able to directly choose the city leader within only two years of coming to Neverwinter City.Do you believe he was elected by the people?

It is as if now, according to the procedure, the conditions of the emergency plan have been met.But no one mentioned this issue at the meeting.Because no one wants the emergency plan to take effect.

After all, comparing public opinion with Lu Xiao now, isn't it just a matter of giving someone a slap in the face?
A hero who just saved the entire city, a super magician.At this time, as long as he raised his arms and shouted, he could account for more than [-]% of the votes in the entire city.If this were a real election, he would have already secured victory.

It was for this reason that these guys sneaked away from Lu Xiao.Prepare to nominate your own candidates in the traditional way, and then completely carve up the city.

According to their thinking, heroes like Lu Xiao are generally not interested in such things.

Even if they are interested, good people like that are usually thin-skinned.Without informing him, he would be too embarrassed to come and ask.

Yes, this is a typical show where a good guy should be held at gunpoint?But they ignored that Lu Xiao was not the kind of person who would not fight back after suffering a loss.

He is not the kind of person who is so thin-skinned that he is embarrassed to speak out when someone takes advantage of him.

I've said it before.If it weren't for those Torre assassins being too rude.He might join forces with them and directly destroy the protagonist group.Because those guys acted more unscrupulously, it was more convenient for Lu Xiao.

But his bottom line is still a bit high.Plus those guys' necromancy magic is really a bit dangerous.He finally sat on the side of the protagonist group.

In fact, if it weren't for him not wanting to make things too big.The scum in the conference room had long been turned into ashes and thrown into the river.

However, because the dangers in this world were too high, he still took a detour.Because I know that Fletcher was elected before.

At that time, he obviously relied on the assistance of the red-robed mage to get to the top.Lu Xiao was originally planning to repeat his path to the top.

But while studying the laws of Neverwinter, I discovered the so-called emergency plan.This time it is even simpler, there is no need to go through the so-called committee nomination.

According to the emergency plan, he can now directly launch an election with direct public participation.

Everyone in the conference room still didn't want to give up.

"Sir, we know that you have powerful magical power. But the reconstruction and management of the city cannot be replaced by power. This is a very complicated job. Are you sure you are qualified?"

"Ha ha!!"
