through the dark road

There is no absolute fairness, nor can it be settled once and for all, but no one present could find a reason to oppose Mo Bei's proposal, nor did they have the courage to do so.

As a result, the voting was inevitable, and the two parties signed an agreement. Mo Bei only served as a notarizer and did not put forward any conditions about himself in the agreement, which surprised Antoine and Drest.

In fact, for a person who can dominate everything, such things as agreements are completely unnecessary.

But Antoine and Drest looked at Mo Bei secretly. With their superior eyes, they could only see a little impatience on the face of this young extraordinary strong man, as if he was eager to settle the matter at hand and leave. , showing no sign of hidden thoughts.

It was as if everything here disdained him, except the human life in his mouth. .

However, Antoine and Drest knew that most of the lives that Mo Beizhao cared about did not include them. .

. . . . . . . .

In a hotel located in a secluded alley, Raven, Agatha, and Yana sat around a small wooden table, listening to the news that had just been transmitted.

Raven looked sad and said in a low voice:

"This... must have been done by him, right?"

Agatha pursed her lips, with a smile in her eyes:

"It's probably true. This change is just as sudden as before. Do you believe me when I say I haven't been contacted?"

"Then you tell me, if the bear and wolf sides don't accept the voting method, will he kill all these two groups and rule the western border by himself?"

Raven looked playful, as if she had thought of some interesting scene.

Agatha shook his head slightly:

"I don't know. Speaking of which, the time we spend with him and our understanding of him are not much better than others. Moreover, it only took him a few years to grow to a height that we can't look up to. He is no longer the person we knew at the beginning. A teenager now.”

Raven was silent for a while, then shrugged and said with a smile:

"How do you choose? I plan to vote for Queen Tiara."

Agasa thought for a moment and said:

"I think that the skills that Gastian IV has always shown can help the Western Territory achieve better development. He is better at buying and stabilizing people's hearts. Compared with Queen Teela who frequently excludes dissidents, he should be able to quickly gather those who were originally with him. Those opposing aristocratic forces.”

"Forehead..."

Raven scratched his head when he heard this, but he didn't expect Agatha to analyze it in detail.

In fact, he had not thought carefully about the reasons for voting for Queen Teela. He probably just joined in the fun. He turned his face and looked at Yana, who was silent at the side, and asked:

"What about you?" Yana just blinked slightly inexplicably, as if she was asking what she was doing, and obviously had no intention of participating at all.

The crowd gathered in the main square was more than ten times larger than in the past, and it looked bustling. Most of these people were still discussing and watching, and nearly a thousand people had already lined up to put their votes into the ballot boxes one by one. The guard guarding the ballot box used a brush dipped in special ink to draw a line on the back of each voter's hand.

This kind of ink is extremely difficult to wash off. After marking, it can prevent some people from queuing up to vote again. However, it is inevitable that some extremists will peel off the stained skin and vote again after treatment and healing.

However, both Bear and Wolf have strictly ordered everyone not to make such small moves in accordance with Mo Bei's request. There are probably not many free adventurers who would do this.

At this moment, Mo Bei was leaning on the eaves of a towering spire, his figure mostly hidden behind a stone sculpture. No one in the square noticed his presence, but he could see the situation in the square through the early morning mist. Clearly.

Because he didn't have a very good impression on the nobles of the Western Realm, he decided to supervise here for a while. However, judging from the current situation, it seems that the awe shown by Drest and Antoine towards him is not fake. , from top to bottom, the Xionglang clan exuded an atmosphere of silence, and they organized the voting in full compliance with his requirements, not daring to go too far.

In the final analysis, he still has no clear understanding of how terrifying a deterrent he is in Sanctuary, and he is considered to be confused by the authorities.

The voting activity was conducted in such a regular manner that he felt a little bored after staring for a while. He was thinking about whether to leave, but when his eyes swept across the square again, his face turned happy:

"They are actually still in the western border..."

It makes sense when you think about it. The three members of the Agatha team are more like rangers. They go wherever they need people. Due to the internal friction between bears and wolves in the Western Border, there are always defense gaps. And speaking of it, they haven't even arrived here yet. In two years, if they didn't concentrate on leveling up, ordinary teams wouldn't be able to improve much.

It seems that these three people are still free adventurers. With their temperaments, they are probably not willing to serve alone.

This kind of adventurers who did not take sides accounted for about 40% of the total number, and became the target of lobbying by the two groups of mercenaries.

For the two factions of mercenaries, if they can pry someone from the opposite camp, in addition to generous rewards, it will also be enough for them to brag for a while. With such a trend, combat power and willpower will inevitably slacken, and the mortality rate in the Western Border is high. No less, there are various reasons, but ultimately it is caused by the internal friction between the two races.

If the conflict between bears and wolves is completely resolved, the defense forces in the western border will even become redundant, especially since the Gray Desert Island, the largest dangerous place, has been purified of the source of corruption, limiting the continued improvement of some teams. Able to travel far to Aranok.

However, both Lu Gaoyin and Kurast, after a series of events, the defense forces gradually became saturated, and with insufficient external pressure, other forms of internal strife were more likely to occur. Mo Bei felt that hell was causing trouble during this period. The intensity was a little overwhelming. .

There is still a considerable gap in strength between these areas and Harrogath and the Demon Fortress. There is still a long way to go before we can truly add to the front line.

As their thoughts wandered, Raven, Agatha and Yana were already at the end of the queue. The queue was moving forward very quickly. After all, all they had to do was throw the ballots into the box, but look at the queue. It's long and winding around the square several times, so it's unlikely that even an hour would pass before the queue could be reached.

Mo Bei was not in a hurry. He smiled and watched the three people whispering to each other while queuing up. Thinking back to the scene when he came to the shelter with a blind eye, got lost in the wilderness and almost died, but was rescued by the three people, he felt a lot of emotion. .

A rookie who had never even been in a fight was already destined to be able to survive in that situation. Who could have imagined that he could possess such powerful power now.

This world has given him too many gifts, and the kind helping hand of the three Ravens in the wilderness was the beginning of it all, so no matter when and where, he always misses him in his heart.
