Talent-based advancement is an open secret among high-ranking officials in various countries.
However, not every nation's chosen ones are strong enough to survive several instances in a row, so the nations have not revealed this secret to their citizens.
After all, if people knew that the chosen ones' talents would allow them to advance, and then watched them make mistakes and die, it would be too cruel for the people who were hoping for them. Watching their hopes be dashed and having to start all over again is worse than not knowing at all.
Moreover, even so, some people still believe that the Chosen Ones are Celestial Dragons who will abuse their talents and do whatever they want.
It's true that not every chosen one is a good person. Occasionally, there are cases where highly intelligent criminals are chosen and granted early pardons to serve the country. Most chosen ones are actually ordinary people. However, because a few bad apples spoil the whole bunch, the relationship between the public and the chosen ones has always been in a very delicate state.
Of all the countries, the Cherry Blossom Country is probably the most "harmonious." Hirano Sane's long-term immortality has garnered her enormous popularity, to the point that some fans have even publicly stated that if she were to die in the alternate world, they would commit suicide to follow her.
As for the extent to which her talent has developed, even the higher-ups in Japan couldn't say for sure.
Let alone controlling the Chosen One, it's already a miracle that the high-ranking officials of the Sakura Kingdom aren't being controlled by Hirano Sane. Right now, they have to beg Hirano Sane not to get into trouble, otherwise, the unrest in public opinion could lead to a lot of social problems.
Having learned from the example of Japan, other countries dare not create gods, but they also cannot allow their people to be hostile to the chosen ones.
In countries like the Dragon Kingdom, the chosen ones are constantly portrayed as martyrs. However, the Dragon Kingdom has too many people, and some people always feel that the country is brainwashing them. They like to sing a different tune. Long before the strange rules appeared on Earth, there were always some outrageous statements questioning why the descendants of martyrs should be given preferential treatment. After their arrival, some people were dissatisfied with the fact that "the chosen ones are still alive and yet they have to enjoy so many benefits."
This may be the downside of modern technological development: anyone can go online and speak freely. Out of billions of people, there are only a few idiots, and you still think you're living in paradise.
However, the think tank will try its best to prevent its chosen ones from seeing all this negative information.
Currently, the chosen ones who are able to return to Earth, whether it's Yin Zhu or Ji Liao, are both good citizens of the Dragon Kingdom. An Zhi naturally hopes that they can relax and have peace of mind during their return, leaving other issues to them to handle.
Compared to the relatively normal situation in Dragon Kingdom, the conflicts in Sloth Kingdom are much more acute.
Indeed, the Chosen Ones are working hard to protect the entire country, but their Chosen One is a serial killer who murdered the children of seven or eight families for his own amusement. If he hadn't been chosen as the Chosen One, this scum would have rotted to death in prison.
So before Mike entered the Grand Theft Auto dungeon, the people of Sloth Country on the internet were arguing almost every day.
Because the Sloth Kingdom's higher-ups publicly pardoned his crimes in order to reassure him about his adventures, this guy returned to Earth and, during his rest period, swaggered off to travel abroad with a group of officially appointed bodyguards, infuriating many victims' families.
Even the most righteous bystanders wanted to pull out their guns and shoot him, but they were afraid that there would be no more outstanding chosen ones in the future, and they would become sinners in the Sloth Kingdom.
Fortunately, Mike died in the ghost story instance later, otherwise there would have been more arguments afterward.
However, these events also planted seeds of trouble for various countries. Some people began to spread rumors that the Chosen Ones could kill people at will without breaking the law. Others claimed that they had heard that the Chosen Ones of a certain country had forcibly abducted women. Combined with the country's attitude of protecting the Chosen Ones, they firmly believed that this was true.
Having seen too many of these rumors, Yin Zhu knew that once she became the chosen one, she would probably not escape this fate. She could only hope that the cyber police would step up their efforts.
Fortunately, she is a woman; they can't spread rumors that she forcibly abducted a man, can they?
Leaving that matter aside for now, Yin Zhu naturally connected the city lord's talent to Ji Liao's death, her expression somewhat complicated: "So that's how it is. After the Unspeakable leaves Dawn Star, they will probably be very wary of the chosen ones with the Fire Thief talent."
"Anyway, as long as He leaves Dawn Star, that's fine." Wei Chuxing didn't care. "After He occupied half of Dawn Star, the words 'Chosen One' can no longer be mentioned outside Sin City, otherwise it will be further corrupted by Him. Only Sin City has maintained its previous normalcy, where people can speak freely. How long has this cloud been around?"
At this point, Wei Chuxing pointed to the dark clouds overhead.
At this moment, the Ferris wheel was completely out of the illusion, allowing Yin Zhu to easily see everything above her head.
"It can shield us from unspeakable gazes. As long as the Cloud of Sin exists, Sin City will forever remain humanity's Sin City." Wei Chuxing proudly raised his chin, noticing Yin Zhu's silence.
"Hao Xun, are you surprised?"
"A little, the city lord is indeed a genius." Unfortunately, there was a traitor among the humans, and the plan ultimately failed. Yin Zhu couldn't bring herself to say the rest of her sentence.
The unspeakable, the inability to look directly at the City of Sin, then the final destruction must have originated from humanity itself.
The death of one Holy Light can create countless more. It can fail countless times, but Sin City can only fail once, and then it can never recover.
"Sheng Hui has taken down several supervisors, hasn't he?" Yin Zhu turned to look at him. "Then I should definitely go find the city lord and become the supervisor. Places without order will only descend into chaos. Someone has to be the leader, so why can't it be me?"
“Even if you knew where the city lord was, he wouldn’t see you,” Wei Chuxing sneered. “He values his life very much.”
"Can't you make an introduction?" Yin Zhu raised an eyebrow.
