Chapter 1349 Vivian Crushes the Audience and Everyone Applauds
As for how the demon hunters selected this "tourist and research (researched) group", the people in charge like Gregor and Hasselblad had to worry about it. Hao Ren only gave them a selection quota and waited for notification. time, and then prepared to say goodbye and leave. When he got up, he saw the cat girl who was snoring lazily in front of the fireplace. The latter had curled up into a small ball, her furry ears trembling slightly in the direction of the fire, and her tail wagging gently at an extremely slow speed. , looking completely like he was about to fall asleep - the excitement and restlessness when he first arrived was completely gone.
A warm fireplace + soft blankets, for a cat, this is simply a drug-taking process. If you add some catnip, Hao Ren has no doubt that this cat will immediately swear to join the witcher. …
"Go away," Hao Ren stepped forward and tugged on the cat girl's tail, "Let's go, let's go."
"Big Cat—" Cat Girl squirmed lazily, her voice sounding like she was coming from her sleep, "I decided to make up for it by sleeping in the morning, noon, and evening..."
"Hey, I'm dozing off now," Hao Ren twitched his eyebrows, "Let's go, we've finished talking about the business, now we can go catch cod."
Gun raised one eyelid slightly and his voice became more ethereal: "What is cod? I don't want it anymore, meow."
Hao Ren suddenly coughed dryly: "Ahem... I was so excited to catch fish before I came here. How come it's just like this?"
Nangong Sanba patted him on the shoulder: "Landlord, let me tell you, cats are very fickle creatures, and women are also very fickle creatures. If these two species come together, she can change seventy-two times, do you know?" ?”
Hao Ren thought for a while and felt that there should be no small animal protection or women's federation personnel activities near the North Pole, so he bent down and grabbed Gun's belt to lift the stupid cat up. He ignored the latter's claws and claws and put it on his shoulder: " Let's go, let's go to Athens quickly. After handing over to the Shadow Council, it's time to go to Horleta - we have a tight schedule today, so we don't have time to reason with a cat."
While he was enjoying the fireplace, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and then the warm fire went away from him. He immediately started struggling with kicks and kicks: "Put me down! Put me down! Big cat, you are in trouble. You are in trouble! I want to warm the fire, I want to warm the fire, meow——"
Before the silly cat could finish the second half of his "meow", he was swallowed up by a white teleportation beam.
Gregorian and Hasselblad looked at each other and smiled bitterly, shaking their heads slightly: "That ancestor really doesn't make people worry-free every time he comes."
"But this time is also a good thing," Hasselblad said. "Hao Ren has been taking action. Perhaps as you said last time, the day will eventually come when the Dream Plane will be fully stable. Sooner or later, those of us who do not belong to this world will We want to return to our homeland - at least some of the tribesmen will choose this. This planet ruled by humans is not very suitable for us. We can survive here, and even survive well, but we will never become an independent nation. Civilization or a complete country, and I have been thinking about this recently. I am ready to participate in this visit to the Dream Plane."
Bai Huo lowered his head and pulled out the game console from his pocket and fiddled with it: "I also want to have a look, but I don't think I will leave here in the future. The Dream Plane is a place that is closely related to us, but I don't belong there. "
The wrinkles on Gregorian's face seemed to have relaxed a little: "Among young people, there are also those who are as content as Bai Huo. It seems that the industry we have been operating on this planet until now will not be succeeded by anyone."
What this old hunter was thinking about was the legacy that demon hunters had inherited on earth for thousands of years.
Bai Huo continued to play with the game console: "I heard there is no wifi there."
Gregorian: "..."
On the other side, Hao Ren and his party had arrived at the Athens Sanctuary located in the shadow layer. They have also sent messages here in advance, and since Vivian also has a more substantial seat and influence in the Shadow Council, many things have actually been conveyed in advance by Vivian through the "spokesperson" Hesiana. After that, all the members of the Shadow Council already knew Hao Ren's arrangement, and the latter came here just to make sure.
Compared with demon hunters who still need to participate in a series of subsequent test projects, the projects that ordinary aliens have to participate in are much easier to worry about. They only need to select a list of people to participate in the "extraordinary inspection".
In order to save time, Vivian asked Hesiana to send the news in advance and also listed a few death criteria and asked them to draft a list of personnel in advance, so that Hao Ren could confirm everything directly after he passed by. There are only three of these dead standards:
First of all, the moderate ones, because this time they are going to work with demon hunters, and they are also going to a different world where aliens are everywhere and all races have everything. The various races in that place have already killed ten thousand people on the earth. For the aliens of the 2000s, basically all of them are enemies. Even if the mythical war on the earth is over now, the accumulated habits are still difficult to change (for example, when a werewolf sees a vampire, he lays a brick first, and when the night devil sees a werewolf, Just burrow into the shadows), so the people joining the group this time must be moderates, which will make it easier to manage.
Secondly, it has a certain influence within each race - because this "extraordinary expedition" is not as simple as a sightseeing trip. For the aliens, its greater significance is to let the tribesmen truly know that their respective races are not the beginning. In terms of making enemies of various ethnic groups and making them more aware of the fact and significance of "alien come from other worlds", a good old ginseng group without a certain influence is of little use.
The third point is to resist beatings, because Vivian clearly pointed out that so many races that have had the brains of dogs come together and act with the demon hunters, which is an unprecedented operation of welding detonators and sawing light bulbs. During this period, there were disobedience and violence. The probability of conflict, unauthorized departure from the team, etc. is almost certain to exist. Therefore, when such situations occur, as the order maintainer of the team, "Countess of the Red Moon" Vivian will resolutely implement the "beat to death" system , so team members must resist beating...
All the members of the Shadow Council believed that the countess's arrangement was reasonable and in line with public opinion, and then they gathered the most unpopular people from their respective tribes and formed a group to try to get through...
It was obvious that they had no intention of cooperating with Hao Ren's call, or in other words, they had not yet understood the significance of Hao Ren's call.
Fortunately, Hesiana had long been on guard against their attempts. With an advance notice, Vivian asked them to withdraw the list and reorder it.
The new list was drawn up very quickly. Basically, within half an hour after Vivian sent the list back, representatives from various families and other shelters sent up the new list, which was said to be "the result of internal urgent discussions." Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that this list has actually been prepared for a long time - the major families have probably expected that Vivian, the living ancestor, will not be easy to fool, so they have prepared such a back-up plan. These guys know the Countess of the Red Moon quite well. They know that although she disowns her relatives and destroys the world when she is sleepy, she is usually relatively easy to talk to. As long as she cooperates in time, she will basically not be beaten.
In the meeting hall of the Shadow Parliament headquarters, Vivian quickly browsed the list in front of her, then raised her eyelids and looked around at the faces in the meeting hall. As the Speaker, Mimir was "placed" in the chief position in the form of a head, flanked by high-ranking councilors composed of the heads of major families, racial leaders, and representatives of the asylum. Of course, Hessiana was among them.
Except for Mimir who always had a faint smile and Hessiana who always tried to get closer to Vivian, the expressions on most of the members' faces were awkward and nervous, and there was also a little bit of confusion hidden in them: they It seems that they have not yet fully understood the causes, consequences and significance of this "return to the dream plane plan". For this sudden "notification" that is almost an order, these old guys who are used to making orders rather than accepting them seem to be confused. A little uncomfortable.
"I just came back from Corpus," Vivian said. Her voice slightly eased the awkwardness of the scene, but the content of her words made the atmosphere weird. "Do you know, dealing with those demon hunters?" It makes me feel better than dealing with you."
A high-level vampire looked embarrassed: "Dear Countess, what you said..."
"Because they only have one race, and there are seventeen of you here alone. They have only one voice, and even within your own family, you want to divide into seven or eight factions to strangle each other. I only have a reputation among them. I have the status of a saint, but what I say there means that I am almost on the same level as the Speaker here, but if I want a list, you can give me two copies!" Vivian threw the list on the table. , "Do you really think that I don't know what's going on inside you when I'm just hanging around outside? I can't name you little bastards, and don't know what's going on with these people on your list?"
Most of the congressmen present were silent. They were basically family representatives who had made a random list to fool them before. Gene Lucas, the patriarch of the Lucas family, bowed slightly, with an everlasting elegance on his face. Smile: "So, Your Majesty the Countess, now this list..."
Vivian paused for a moment, and then heard the secret voice from Hessiana using the vampire mind connection spell: "Sir Vivian, Sir Vivian, there is no big problem with this list now!"
Vivian's face remained calm, and she nodded slightly to a group of anxious family representatives: "The list is more regular now, but I don't want to find anyone trying to fool me again. You must know that even if I am not on any When the shelter appears, I also have a way to know the situation in the parliament, and I know you all."
As she spoke, she glanced at the whole room with a unique momentum, and paused for a moment on the face of every congressman she felt displeased with - she didn't know any of them anyway!
Lily poked Hao Ren's arm and whispered, "Bat can really blow."
Hao Ren and Nangong brother and sister nodded together: "Yes, yes."
Gun was still lying on the table with a lifeless expression: "I want to warm myself by the fire... I want to sleep... I want to eat fish..."
