◎District Mayor Selection◎

The next day, all players received a system announcement.

【District Mayor Selection Competition Officially Begins!】

[Selection Rules: Players sign up voluntarily. After signing up, all survivor players in the area will vote. Each player has one vote, and the one with the highest number of votes wins.]

[Qualification deadline: 8:00 PM on the 14th day of the competition.]

[The district chief's power is temporarily hidden, please actively sign up~]

As the announcement was made, a window popped up forcibly.

District Mayor Selection Competition (Countdown: 64 hours)

Registered players: 0, votes: 0]

Yan Lan thought for only a second and clicked the registration button without hesitation. Her name immediately appeared at the top of the registration column, and she cast her only vote.

Players are discussing this new event enthusiastically.

"The district chief sounds really impressive. Does anyone want to sign up?"

"With great power comes great responsibility. A small fry like me is not going to join. I'll wait for the big guys to take me to the top."

"I want to give it a try, what if I get chosen? Haha! Hi everyone, before I started playing the game, I was the mayor of Shanhua Village, a town under City A. Please give me a vote."

"You really are... hilarious."

"Yan Lan signed up!"

"Jin Buwei also showed up!"

"Oh my god, even Sandman has signed up! They're all big shots in the group!"

"Everyone has a precious vote. Who are you going to vote for?"

Shi Yuanyuan lurked out from behind the group chat: "It must be Yan Lan. She has good character, acts uprightly, and is also extremely powerful!"

Yuan Zhou: "When it comes to contributions to this district, no one can compare to Yan Lan. She truly deserves it!"

Lu Zilin: "Yan Lan has helped me many times, and all the members of our group chose her."

Xie Yuan: "Me too. After she becomes the district chief, our group will definitely get better and better."

Wang Da: "Everyone, please support Yan Lan!"

…

There are many players in the group who have benefited from Yan Lan, and her supporters immediately left the other two players far behind.

But most players are still waiting and watching. There are still 64 hours left until the election, so they are not in a hurry.

"I suggest everyone stop being so frivolous in supporting Yan Lan. After all, the title of district chief isn't just about selling supplies. It requires not only a sense of service from participants, but also strong personal strength and leadership."

"Don't you think Yan Lan, as a girl, is too weak at times? Although what I say may be unpleasant, there are times when those in power must be ruthless and decisive."

"Look at the founding emperors of every dynasty; which one didn't climb to the top by licking blood and knife's edge? Look at the leaders of various countries in modern history; only strength and tyranny can safeguard a country's interests."

This man quoted from classics and spoke eloquently, which quickly moved the players' already weak hearts.

"I think... he's absolutely right. Yan Lan has certainly helped a lot, but being a great seller doesn't guarantee leadership. This is the selection of a district chief, no joke."

"That makes some sense."

Yan Lan's loyal supporters immediately became dissatisfied upon seeing this: "This is a game world, how can we compare it to historical figures! And how do you know Yan Lan has no leadership ability? I think she is quite strong."

The player spoke up again: "I have a guess, I don't know if it's correct, but the game requires each district to elect a district leader, who will later lead everyone in PK competitions with other districts. If she needs to kill someone, can she do it?"

"Yeah, girls are always soft-hearted."

"Boys tend to be more rational and more ruthless at times like this."

"I also think it would be better to elect a male district chief."

Shi Yuanyuan had long lost his temper and started cursing himself:

"Who says boys are naturally stronger than girls? Last time at the supply station, which of those boys could beat Yan Lan? On the contrary, I'm more optimistic about girls because they are soft and kind-hearted, which makes them the perfect fit for this inhumane survival game."

A player whispered back, "But don't forget, the district chief is going to lead us in the PK competition."

Shi Yuanyuan: "Bah, that's just a guess, don't just listen to it and start talking nonsense."

"But I think what he said makes sense. Besides, look at our country's leaders, most of them are men."

"Yes, it's not that we don't trust Yan Lan, it's just that a real boy would be more suitable."

Jiang Tiantian watched with great interest from behind, and laughed so hard when she saw Yan Lan's followers being criticized.

Ahahahahahahahaha!

She was so happy. Normally, everyone praised Yan Lan highly for supplies, but now that their own interests were involved, they dragged her down with them!

This play is so interesting, she loves watching it!

Jiang Tiantian didn't mind getting involved: "I think what the brothers and sisters said is very reasonable. Although I am also a girl, girls help girls, but this is after all related to the vital interests of all players, I can't show favoritism. Sorry, Yan Lan, I can't support you this time~~"

"However—our President Jin, Comrade Jin Buwei, possesses exactly the qualities you mentioned: masculine, strong, and capable of leadership. Everyone is welcome to vote for him!"

Jin Buwei is a brainless man, making him a perfect candidate for being fooled and manipulated by her.

Jin Buwei: "Please vote for me. I will lead H-38 District to glory!"

Zhang Shiyi: "Support President Jin!"

Wang Twelve: "President Jin is first!"

The lackeys of Sandman also took the opportunity to advertise.

Li Zhiyong: "Times like these are when Brother Sha should step in! Look at the hundreds of people we lead. Who wouldn't obey Brother Sha's leadership?"

Liu Man: "Exactly, we have real examples! Unlike some weak women, the number of team members can be counted on 5 fingers, and yet they brag about their strong leadership. It's shameful~"

A passing player said: "What you said seems to make sense. The Sandman team has hundreds of people, and they are all completely obedient to him without any objections. I think he should have no problem leading us."

Shi Yuanyuan: "But Sha Renfan not only traffics drugs, he also kills people intentionally!

Li Zhiyong: "Excuse me, do you have any evidence? If you don't have any, don't talk nonsense. I'll sue you for defamation!"

"you!"

Shi Yuanyuan was furious and went to the "Get Rich Together" group to complain bitterly, "They must be crazy to actually elect Sha Renfan as district chief!"

Yuan Zhou: "Hasn't the loss I've suffered been enough?"

Luo Wen: "Don't worry, Yan Lan is still ahead in votes for now."

Shi Yuanyuan: "But Yan Lan's votes should have exceeded by a large margin!"

Yan Lan said, "Don't worry for now."

Shi Yuanyuan was already impatient, and upon hearing this, he became even more anxious: "It's not urgent yet, you'll be surpassed soon! Don't you want to be the district chief? Even if you don't want to be, we can't let the Sand People snatch it away. His petty mind will retaliate against us."

"I'm a boy, so I have a natural advantage. How about I sign up and everyone canvass for me to vote?"

Yan Lan chuckled and comforted him: "Don't worry, everyone. I know what's going on. There are still three days until the end of the selection. A comeback is possible at any time."

She studied the vote count and found that there were more than 10 people who signed up, but the players mainly supported those three.

Jin Buwei's minor fight can be ignored, leaving only her and Sandman to PK.

The event should be at its hottest when it first comes out, but all the votes added up to just over 1,000, which means that most players remain on the sidelines.

The next few days were a process of mutual competition, and as long as he could capture the main opponent, Sandmanfan, it would be easy to win the game.

She continued, "What's more important now is this map. Haven't you noticed that the air is getting drier and drier?"

Luo Wen was observant and noticed this anomaly, but because of his personality, he didn't dare to raise it unless there was a problem.

When Yan Lan mentioned it, she immediately replied, "Yeah, yes. The humidity was 40% yesterday, and it's dropped to 35% today. I'm sure it will be even drier in the next few days."

Shi Yuanyuan, who had been at the peak of his emotions, realized that they had a more serious difficulty to face. The energy that had been rushing in his body suddenly dropped from the top of his head to the soles of his feet with a "pop".

He felt a chill down his spine and shuddered inexplicably. "If the weather was dry, I could still endure it. Could there be some other unexpected events?"

"Binggo, you're right."

Shi Yuanyuan scratched his head with both hands: "Oh my god, I thought I could live peacefully for the next few days!"

Yuan Zhou: "That's wishful thinking. Yan Lan, tell me what you think?"

"We can prepare in advance..."

Several people discussed the matter in and out of the group before dispersing.

As soon as the district chief selection competition was announced, it successfully became the hottest topic among all players.

An unknown private group.

"Friends, what do you think, Yan Lan or Sandman Fan?"

"I think what that player said is right. We need a tough male player to lead us. Yan Lan... is a very good person, but Sandman is obviously more suitable."

"That's what I thought."

"Okay, let's decide this."

Lei Xiaoyan, who had been lurking behind them, quickly came out and said, "Wait, everyone, wait a minute!"

All the friends in the group looked at her.

"Uh, what's wrong with you? Are you asking us to choose Yan Lan instead?"

"Did you accept any favors from her?"

"Or did she save your life?"

A drop of cold sweat dripped from Lei Xiaoyan's forehead. She didn't dare to say that Yan Lan had indeed saved her life.

Her mind raced, and she came up with an idea: "Of course not! I don't even know her, so why would I vote for her for no reason? It's just that I think this voting right is extremely valuable, so why not save it first? Who knows, maybe I can exchange it for resources later."

"Oh, you're right!"

"Luckily, I was slow and didn't throw it out."

“Thank you, Xiaoyan!”

Lei Xiaoyan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her group members had given up the idea of ​​voting. For the time being, she had no other choice but to find excuses to delay, hoping that later players would come to their senses.

Jindabang internal group.

Jin Buwei: "My votes are still a long way from first place, hurry up and promote me!"

Zhang Shiyi: "President, I've gathered a group of players who are willing to join us, but they might need a little bit, uh, a little bit of supplies."

Wang Twelve: "President, this is what I am talking about."

Jin Buwei waved his hand and said, "Approved!"

Zhang Shiyi: "Then I'll contact them right away and give us a boost in votes!"

Wang Twelve: "The president is so powerful!"

Jiang Tiantian sneered, haha, it’s not that the players need supplies, they just want to make some money from it!

She can take the benefits, but others can’t!

She narrowed her eyes slightly, and a plan came to her mind: "President Jin, this is absolutely inappropriate!"

Jin Buwei now gets a headache whenever he sees Jiang Tiantian. He wonders if it's because of his anxiety disorder.

He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "What's wrong, Vice Chairman Jiang!"

Jiang Tiantian continued to persuade them, "If we increase the vote count all at once, they'll definitely guess we're playing tricks. If we don't tell them, voting rights will become a hot commodity, and players will definitely raise the price. It's better to hold on until the end and launch a surprise attack to catch them off guard!"

She also cunningly pulled out the gang's national treasure, Chen Shengsheng: "Shengsheng, don't you think so?"

Chen Shengsheng had been completely controlled by her, so of course there was no reason for him to listen to her: "Tiantian has a point."

Jin Buwei was quick-witted and quickly convinced: "Yes, Vice President Jiang is right. Let's stabilize those players first, and then attack them by surprise. Hahaha, they will definitely be dumbfounded!"

Jiang Tiantian glanced at the chat panel indifferently and rolled her eyes, "What an idiot."

Of course, she didn't think Jin Buwei was capable of getting the title of district chief, but if he did, she would also contribute to his success!
