On the other side, the Inner Circle, the Platinum Courtyard.
This was the political core of the Inner Circle. Most of the policies of the Wasteland Alliance were discussed and produced here.
For example, the most basic wasteland constitution.
In addition to the most basic administrative functions, the Platinum Courtyard was also the largest private meeting center of the 13-man council.
That's right, the highest authority of the wasteland was a blatant private meeting center.
Most of the high-level business transactions in the wasteland were actually conducted here.
Of course, to ensure that no scandals or strange things were exposed.
The Platinum Courtyard did not have any seafood.
Most of the entertainment activities here were cards, chess, or some simple combat sports and so on.
In the meeting room of the 13-man council, two candidates for the groom were summoned.
The two candidates spoke about their experiences and the scene of the battle between Ludi and the King of Nightmares.
"Ludi did fight with the King of Nightmares in the end, but we don't know the final result.
The environment was too dangerous, and we couldn't stay.
However, according to my personal judgment, they should be dead!
Because after the red pillar solidified, all the mutants retreated.
If the King of Nightmares didn't die, those mutants would never have retreated. This was recorded in the previous War of the Black Tide. "
As the candidate for the groom spoke, the other staff members handed over reports to the council members.
The 13-man council members were silently looking at the reports handed over by their subordinates.
A few of them showed a happy expression.
"The King of Nightmares is dead, and so is Ludi. There shouldn't be anything more joyous than this, right?"
The council member who spoke was called Jia Hu. After he finished speaking, he realized that no one was paying attention to him, so he lost interest in continuing.
The other council members also began to talk in low voices.
The reason they didn't go to the east of the Fourth Ring was mainly due to Ludi's uniqueness. They couldn't let a Seventh Grade powerhouse go uncontrolled. That would be too dangerous.
They never thought that Ludi could really defeat the King of Nightmares. Their original plan was to use the King of Nightmares to kill Ludi.
However, he actually did it. Ludi killed the King of Nightmares, and it was a mutual destruction.
In a sense, this was indeed a good thing.
However, the situation in the Fourth Ring was already out of control. For them, this was a rather bad situation.
Chairman Shi Haoxuan kept tapping the table with his fingers.
Da da da! Da da da!
As he knocked, the meeting fell into silence again.
This continued until Shi Haoxuan turned around and looked at the other members of the Parliament.
"Although the Nightmare Lord is dead, and so is Ludi, you seem to have forgotten. There was still Qiao Xing in the East Huan!
He was also an uncontrollable factor. What are you so proud of?
And have you ever thought that the next four rings will still be controlled by the inner ring? "
Councilwoman Jin Lu stood up.
"Qiao Xing's current location is in the South Ring. She hasn't come out since she entered Noah's Amusement Park.
So I think he may not be that much of a threat.
Moreover, even if Qiao Xing came out, it would be the Church's business to deal with him. It has nothing to do with us.
This is just like Ludi this time. "
Shi Haoxuan glanced at Golden Deer. He really didn't have any good impression of this big-breasted, brainless woman.
But it couldn't be helped. It was now a period of change in the wasteland. The 13-member Parliament still needed to maintain a minimum level of stability and cooperation.
He no longer looked at Golden Deer. Instead, he shifted his gaze to an elegant middle-aged man with glasses.
This elegant middle-aged man was Hitomi Hakuzuki's biological father, Luo Xuemin.
Luo Xuemin glanced at Shi Haoxuan. After the two of them nodded to each other, he began to recount some information.
"Since you don't have an accurate understanding of the Fourth Ring, then I'll analyze it for you from the data level.
At present, you're still stuck in the old concept of the changes in the Fourth Ring.
You think that even if the Fourth Ring is in chaos, you can suppress it with force and retake it.
But after careful investigation, I found that things are not that simple.
The level of the Fourth Ring's dark energy has increased by about 4.53 times in the past two months.
The number of Extraordinaires registered in the past month has increased by 15 times compared to the past.
Listen carefully, the number of people registered is 15 times the total number of people in the past.
And under normal circumstances, many people don't know that they have awakened the extraordinary talent, the sequence.
So, most people don't register.
According to the inaccurate investigation, the probability of the Fourth Ring becoming an Extraordinaire has exceeded that of the Inner Ring, reaching an astonishing 25.7%.
And this number is still increasing. Many people are at a loss because of the increase in their strength.
Power has caused their self-confidence to expand without limit. They have become selfish and uncontrollable.
After talking about so much data, my personal conclusion is also very simple.
Based on the current situation, the Inner Ring will soon lose control of the Fourth Ring.
As for whether it will be lost forever, it depends on the next decision of the Inner Ring and whether the Fourth Ring has the kind of person who can decide the future development of the Fourth Ring. "
Luo Xuemin's speech was reasonable. After he spoke, the others fell silent again.
The members of the Assembly were not fools. Everyone knew the price of losing the Fourth Ring.
They had just given up on the East Ring. It would not be easy to clean up the mess now.
Shi Haoxuan looked at the other members of the Assembly and gradually smiled.
Although there was no result from the research, at least the Assembly's attitude was unified. They could not give up control of the Fourth Ring.
"Old Luo, prepare for the press conference!"
"Got it."
… …
On the morning of December 21st, the Minister of Civil Affairs, Aries Assembly member Mr. Luo Xuemin gave an important speech.
"Today, I will mainly talk about two issues.
First, the recent events in the Fourth Ring's East Ring, I express my deep regret. I personally express my deep condolences to the people who died.
I always feel that the people of the Fourth Ring and the people of the Inner Ring have always been one.
We will not be afraid of danger, we will not be afraid of difficulties, we will persevere and work hard to build a new Fourth Ring.
We will repair the high wall and keep the mutants out of the wall.
Second, the Assembly will continue to pay close attention to the strange movements of the Fourth Ring's dark energy.
I would like to appeal and advise the people who have awakened extraordinary abilities or talents to register at the Security Bureau.
This is very important. Not only is it a form of respect for others, but it is also for your own safety.
Although I, Luo Xuemin, am an ordinary person, I know the dangers of dark energy.
If there is no reasonable method to absorb dark energy, there will be a huge risk of distortion.
So, everyone, if you respect your own life, please register at the Security Bureau.
There, you can at least understand the most basic training methods!
Here, I also hope that the entire Wasteland Alliance can be peaceful forever. "
After finishing his speech, Luo Xuemin walked to the backstage with a peaceful expression.
After returning to his own workshop, he stopped smiling and showed a rare coldness.
"Boss, Young Master Luo Shan just called."
Luo Xuemin did not immediately reply. Instead, he poured himself a glass of strong alcohol and lit a cigar.
He lay on the sofa tiredly and took a deep puff of the cigar. After letting the smoke cover his face, he slowly opened his mouth and said,
"What did Boss say?"
"Young Master Luo Shan said that Miss has grown up and their relationship is not good. So, he will not touch this bad luck."
"Not good? If they are not good, they can steal money from home to buy mechs?
If they are not good, they can fight and smooth things over when they were young?
If he doesn't want to go, then don't go. When did Boss become so cunning?
What did he learn in the Military Police Regiment? "
Luo Xuemin's glasses were a little reflective. Right now, he was a little different from the nice guy in front of the people.
The subordinates beside him did not dare to speak in front of Luo Xuemin, even if he was already a Fourth Grade expert.
In front of Luo Xuemin, they still felt fear.
After a moment of silence, Luo Xuemin spoke again.
"How is Tong Tong recently?"
"Miss has been working in the Circle Workshop in the East Ring as the workshop's weapon designer.
She has also received 5% of the company's technical shares and is now considered one of the company's shareholders. "
"What about that Lü Luo? The one that Tong Tong likes. "
"I just received news that the boss of the Circle Workshop, Lü Luo, has returned to the workshop and brought back the church's Saintess, Bambusa Chinensis.
The relationship between the two is quite close. It seems that there has been a breakthrough. "
As this subordinate spoke, he had already started to sneak glances at Luo Xuemin's expression.
Sure enough, after he said that Lü Luo and Bambusa Chinensis were quite close, Luo Xuemin's fingers suddenly tightened.
He crushed the alloy wine glass with one hand! Moreover, he did not use any energy.
The subordinate swallowed his saliva unnaturally.
Not to mention anything else, just Luo Xuemin's strength and the reaction speed he had shown in the previous few assassination incidents.
He had already completely crushed this Fourth Grade confidant.
However, no one knew the true extent of Luo Xuemin's strength.
This man was definitely not as cowardly as the rumors said he was.
Luo Xuemin was a person who knew how to restrain himself. There were not many things that could make him angry, but Hitomi Hakuzuki's matter was definitely one of them.
"A councilman's daughter chasing after a Fourth Ring kid!
She is simply degenerating! "
The subordinate knew Luo Xuemin's temper. At this time, Luo Xuemin needed a way out, which meant that he needed to speak.
Although he was afraid of being hammered, if he did not speak, he probably would not need to come tomorrow.
"But last time you said that this Lü Luo has a lot of potential. If he is properly trained, he will be a good match for Miss!"
"Nonsense, when did I say such a thing?"
The subordinate lowered his head submissively.
"Probably yesterday!"
"Did you really say that?"
"Yes, I did."
"Even if I did say such a thing, this kid is too much of a playboy. He already has Hitomi, but he is still fooling around outside."
"Er, boss, Lü Luo knew Bambusa Chinensis before Miss!"
"But as a man, he should not be so playful. Is my daughter not beautiful enough?"
"But last time you said that a man with a successful career has three wives and four concubines is a very normal thing!
Moreover, in the eyes of many young people in the inner circle, Miss Bambusa Chinensis is not only beautiful, but also has a good figure and a good personality, so … "
The subordinate was already a little flustered when he said this.
Usually, at this time, the boss would have already used this opportunity to get out of the situation. But what was going on today?
If he continued, he felt that he would be gone soon.
"Okay, let Second Brother and Jin Chen go and talk to Hitomi. Also, you don't need to come to work tomorrow."
"Boss? I … "
"Go with them."
"Ah? Thank you, boss! "
… …
The next day, in the Blue Sky Base, Lü Luo looked at the blind studio members and revealed a smile.
Keeping this base was perhaps the best choice he had made recently.
Although this base did not really belong to him now, he did not intend to let this base out.
Nonsense, how could he give up something that was already in his hands?
Bambusa Chinensis was outside with some female members of the studio, treating the wounded around them for free.
This was not a saint, but a strategic action.
Even in the tribal era, everyone understood the role of an excellent healer. Healers would mostly become the tribe's witch doctor or elders, let alone in the wasteland era.
Bambusa Chinensis, who could treat the wounded for free, quickly won the support of the surrounding people.
They themselves had already become the first wall of the base.
Bambusa Chinensis could even help the studio select talented and well-behaved people during the process of treatment and negotiation.
This was killing two birds with one stone.
Hitomi Hakuzuki was tidying up her machinery room. The space here was obviously much bigger than the previous warehouse.
Especially the bottom area, it could even accommodate a giant petri dish that was dozens of meters tall.
Now, it was all contracted by Hitomi Hakuzuki and turned into a huge comprehensive workshop.
She only had one request for her office, and that was to be big, big enough!
Big enough to store heavy weapons, machinery, and even mechas!
Then there was the problem of money. Although Lü Luo did not have any money.
But based on the current situation of the Fourth Ring, it was uncertain whether the economic system would collapse.
So, in a sense, not having money might be a good thing.
As for whether the Fourth Circle would be under the control of the Inner Circle or not, it had not been decided yet.
If the Inner Ring did not manage to manage it, then the monetary system would have to be rebuilt!
Moreover, ever since Hitomi Hakuzuki came back, she never mentioned the relationship between Lü Luo and Bambusa Chinensis.
This was what Lü Luo was most satisfied with!
Yes, everyone was harmonious and loved each other as a family. How good would that be!
[That's what all the old perverts think.]
"Again, I'm not old."
Just as Lü Luo was fantasizing, Zhou Kai walked in and interrupted him.
"Brother Luo, there are a few gangs in the north that organized a regional safety assembly. They specially invited us. Do you want to go?"
Regional safety assembly? This kind of gang-related thing was useless in the past, but it was different now.
Many ordinary people had to rely on gangs, or they would not be able to survive.
There was no other way. The high wall had not been repaired yet, and the mutants could come in at any time.
Although the Security Bureau had just cleaned up the mess, it could not be done so quickly. They would definitely push forward layer by layer.
Also, they had to send a large number of hunters to help guard the gap in the high wall. Lü Luo knew that they would not be able to handle it at this time.
So, it was better to go.
"What's their attitude like?"
"The people who came were more modest, but Brother Luo, we should not be afraid of their hostility, right?"
[Brother Kai is starting to get arrogant!]
Hearing Zhou Kai's arrogant tone, Lü Luo immediately spoke earnestly.
"Brother Kai! The stronger we are, the more we have to keep a low profile.
At this time, the situation in the Fourth Ring is unknown. The best way to do it is to hide our strength as much as possible, understand? "
"Then we're not going?"
Lü Luo touched his nose. How could he not go with this kind of opportunity to show off?
"Of course we're going. If we don't go this time, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future!"
"Then?"
"You and Brother Gu get ready. The three of us will go together."
"Okay!"
… …
After giving some simple instructions, Lü Luo brought Gu Fangyi and Zhou Kai to a gang stronghold not far from the north of the base.
This was originally a train station. After it was destroyed by the mutants, it was temporarily built as a gang stronghold.
When Lü Luo and the other two entered, they found that the meeting had already begun.
A Second Grade Extraordinary was spouting nonsense in front of him.
"Right now, what the Fourth Ring needs the most is a new order. Only a strong team can bring about a new order.
If a team wants to become a strong team, it must have these five types of people.
Tigers that guard the mountains,
Eagles with foresight,
Wolves that are good at fighting,
Agile leopards,
Loyal dogs! "
When the Transcendent said this, Lü Luo and the other two just happened to enter. The Transcendent took the opportunity to look at the three of them.
"A few more friends are here. Guys, what kind of roles do you think you can play in the team?"
Zhou Kai frowned. He looked at Lü Luo and then waved his branch arm.
"Grass on the wall?"
Lü Luo thought for a moment and immediately remembered his appetite.
"A bucket to hold rice?"
Zhou Kai: "A horse for the sea?"
Lü Luo: "A stick to stir shit?"
The more the two talked, the more excited they became. They both looked at Gu Fangyi.
Gu Fangyi refused to talk and turned his head away. However, he was pulled back by Lü Luo.
"Brother Gu, this big brother is asking a question. Why don't you give him face?"
Gu Fangyi was so angry that he laughed at Lü Luo and Zhou Kai. Was it really that fun to tease a group of noobs?
He had no choice but to speak.
"If the conditions allow, I want to be a person."
