Chapter 48, second update: I want to be the city lord, who has any objection?
The moment Ashu defeated the turtle shell, the Lord of the Free Base covered his heart with his hands, his eyes wide open.
He felt his vitality gradually dissipating, and his connection with the giant turtle suddenly disappeared.
After relying on the giant turtle's energy for so many years, he now even has difficulty breathing on his own.
"No, impossible..." The city lord walked with heavy steps to see what was going on.
As he walked, he looked at his arms in despair. The skin became dry, wrinkles appeared, and age spots followed one after another, all of which showed that the big turtle had completely lost contact with him.
He was eager to see what happened to the big turtle.
I really regret having slacked off in recent years.
There was no need to reinforce the spell on the turtle over and over again to deepen the control over her.
As a result, before he even walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, he fell on the road with his eyes wide open, deader than dead.
The white-robed messengers around them were confused about the situation, but they all sensed that something was wrong.
Although these white-robed messengers have always been supporters of the city lord and have always respected the city lord.
But at this moment, they had no time to collect the body of the city lord.
They have eaten a lot of turtle meat over the years and enjoyed the conveniences brought by their aristocratic status.
At this time, you may run to the mirror in fear, kneel on the ground in pain, and wait for your own death.
Or you may become furious and lose your temper at people around you, but your emotional fluctuations are too great for your aging heart to bear.
Or they may go to find their loved ones, take care of family affairs, and die in their arms in despair.
The only few who were still conscious closed the heavy door immediately.
Trap everyone inside to prevent the news from leaking out of the City Lord's Mansion.
The entire City Lord's Mansion was in chaos.
The supreme ruler died mysteriously, and the staff who maintained order also fell one after another.
The thousands of people who attended the rally also smelled the fishy odor of the cup of "holy water".
Those who drank it all in one breath even held their stomachs and retched, wishing they could vomit out all the gastric juice.
Xiao Ye and Lao Wang protected Xinxue behind them, looking at the room in the middle of the hall with uncertain expressions.
It was my first time attending a monthly meeting and encountering something like this, which was something no one expected.
Looking at the scene that looked like a picture of hell, Xiao Ye hurriedly stuffed poison into the hands of the other two.
None of the three of them are strong fighters, so they have to use this more unconventional method to protect themselves.
She was extremely nervous.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he looked anxiously towards the middle: "Why hasn't Ah Shu come out yet..."
Xinxue clutched her chest and replied, "Ashu hasn't been here since a while ago."
Ever since she had been united with Ah Shu, her body had begun to vaguely respond to her presence.
When Ah Shu was by her side, she would feel safe and relaxed without any contact.
But that feeling has been gone for a while.
Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door: "Everyone inside, get out of the way!"
Upon hearing this, all the people gathered at the door trying to find a way out scattered.
There was a loud bang of the door banging, and after several times, the heavy iron door fell down, raising clouds of dust.
Amidst the smoke and dust, a woman holding a long knife slowly walked into the house.
The wind blew her long, thick green hair, and the woman was holding a round object in her hand.
Those who didn't understand what was going on mistook it for a head, and were so frightened that they trembled and almost ran away.
Only Xinxue, feeling the arrival of Ah Shu, suddenly felt at ease.
She ran towards Ah Shu, hugged her tightly and nuzzled her affectionately: "Where have you been?"
"I'll tell you when I get home." Ah Shu remembered something and handed the turtle eggs in his hand to her.
He said apologetically, "We have another burden on our family."
In full view of everyone, she passed by the old, mummy-like corpse of the city lord, sat on the throne, picked up the city lord's crown and put it on her head.
She thrust the long knife vertically into the table, embedding it seven or eight centimeters deep.
She opened her red lips slightly, leaned lazily on the seat, and said with a wicked smile: "The previous city lord is dead, and now I want to be the city lord. Who has any objection?"
Now, people who were in confusion suddenly had an outlet for their emotions.
"Are you kidding me? Where are you from? Are you from Free Base? You want to be the city lord right out of the gate. You're so arrogant!"
"I'm a direct relative of the city lord. Although our base hasn't changed owners in decades, I feel I'm the rightful owner!"
"What era is this? Are we still deciding the city lord based on bloodline? Vote! I suggest voting! Vote for the entire city! Elect the city lord!"
"She must have poisoned the city lord. I saw her as the last one to enter the room. No matter what, we can't let a murderer become the city lord!"
For a while, there were people trying to take advantage of the situation, people who were incompetent and furious, and people who just wanted to watch the fun.
There were all kinds of people there, and the level of chaos was even higher than when he saw the city lord die and the white-robed messengers fall one by one.
But only the slogans were shouted loudly.
Everyone waited for a long time, but no one dared to rush up and fight with Ah Shu.
In a situation like the current one, only those who are truly capable dare to step forward.
Xiao Ye tugged at Xin Xue's sleeve in astonishment, "Did you know that Ah Shu wanted to be the city lord? When did that happen?"
Lao Wang couldn't wait to ask, "Yes, I know she's very strong, but isn't it too hasty to suddenly decide to become king during a mission?"
Xinxue observed what Ah Shu gave her and realized it was an egg, so she put it away.
"The policies of Free Base are disgusting. We want to liberate this place." Hearing the question, she nodded calmly: "We were planning to come back and assassinate the city lord next time, but we didn't expect him to die on his own."
Halfway through her words, she smiled shyly.
He helplessly spread his hands and said, "It's true that plans can't keep up with changes. It's all because of the city lord's early death."
Now Xiao Ye and Lao Wang had to look at the couple with new respect.
One is so arrogant that he thinks he is the boss and no one is second to him; the other is so careless that he doesn’t care if his lover suddenly decides to become the public enemy.
What a perfect match!
However, they are very familiar with Ashu's fighting ability.
If we only consider combat power, Ah Shu might actually be able to become the city lord...
Xiao Ye asked doubtfully, "Should we go get some help now, or just stay here and watch the show?"
Upon hearing this, Old Wang turned his gaze to Xinxue, as if he regarded her as the person in charge.
Xinxue's gaze swept across the gate where people were constantly escaping and pouring in.
She decided, "Let's just stay here. Such a big thing happened in the City Lord's Mansion. The people in the Free Base must be in a panic. Team Lu and the others should have heard about it soon."
As she expected, the entire Free Base was in turmoil after the news spread.
The psychics who had been enjoying privileges here fell as soon as they saw their backers.
They all felt that their future lives would definitely change dramatically, so they began to pack their belongings, prepare vehicles, and flee together.
The numbness in the eyes of ordinary people who had been oppressed for many years also disappeared.
Some knelt on the ground in pain, some rebelled against their masters, some robbed in the streets, and some engaged in gang fights.
On Pink Street, Strawberry heard what happened in the City Lord's Mansion and her heart began to beat wildly uncontrollably.
The cake shop manager took a day off today and everyone was slacking off and not very keen on receiving customers.
Upon hearing the news, Strawberry's sisters excitedly screamed, "Ahhh! Who was the good guy who did this?! I hope the next mayor is a good person and can close this street!"
“I, I might know who it is…” Strawberry turned to look at her, her eyes sparkling as she said, “They should be two women from somewhere else.
They came to the store to eat cake, and I was the one who received them.
But they didn't do anything. They just ate the cake affectionately and talked a lot about how they wanted to oust the current city lord and become the city lord themselves! "
Most of them were sold to this street when they were very young and ignorant, and now they have accepted jobs on Pink Street.
But if given a choice, who would be willing to exchange their body for money?
They long for the day when they can take control of their own lives, and now... has that day arrived?
In a back alley of Fen Street, several elderly women gathered together.
A blind woman with delicate features and no wrinkles to mar her appearance.
Holding his friend's hand tightly, he asked, "Is it true? The mayor is really dead? Is Pink Street going to be shut down?"
Her friend was less optimistic and said, "It seems the City Lord is truly dead, but what will become of Pink Street... we still don't know."
The woman's cloudy, lifeless eyes trembled, and two lines of clear tears flowed down her cheeks. She asked in a hoarse voice, "If it's really banned, can you help me and send me home?"
The friend held her hand and gave her a warm feeling: "Okay! I'll take you home!"
