When Lu Ping'an was on "vacation", time did not stand still. The originally planned trajectory was being pushed forward smoothly or helplessly.
But it seems that something is not going well.
"Did the exhibition get bombed?"
When Lu Ping'an got the news, he was also stunned.
This was a task he received when he first came here. Various cities in Changping Prefecture took this opportunity to hold trade fairs to showcase their city's latest products and trophies from other lands.
It's called an exhibition, but no one expects to receive many orders in such an environment. This is just another way to show the strength and heritage of their city.
The "Flying Boat" that Gucheng brought out as its main product also had some trophies from the outside world. Lu Ping'an even went to stand on the stage and watched the "Exhibition War". Of course, he can't end up like this, otherwise it would not be a competition but a war. .
But to be honest, among the many cities in Changping Prefecture, the harvest of the ancient city can only be considered average (at the time of Green Planet, there were at least three others like it), let alone Changping City itself.
They have rules-level combat power that can be deployed. The exotic harvests of these big guys are crushing in all aspects.
But if one side of the arena is Changping City, and the other side is other cities in Changping Prefecture except Changping, then it is a different matter.
Many cities have their own ideas and ambitions, and naturally they want to overwhelm the city at this time. In a sense, this is a different kind of forced palace.
"Tsk, when I talk about those short-sighted people who only care about their own small family, they all look angry. Now they are fighting among themselves for the development rights of their own cities, but they feel that there is no problem at all. This is probably the duality of the new era. Mark it."
Lu Ping'an sighed helplessly. If he could really be completely rational, give up his ego, consider the overall situation, and strive for the rise of all mankind, then he might really be a saint.
But obviously, thieves are common, but saints are rare. If the whole world is full of saints, it may be quite uncomfortable.
There was no winner in the trade fair, because judging from the results, both parties lost.
"The Central Committee has also come to an end. It's really a little bit like that."
The local snakes fighting each other did not fight the Dragon Crossing the River this time, but maybe others were just passing by.
The business groups sent by the central government brought out exotic products and trophies, and also took advantage of the place to create an expo.
Naturally, they are not here to sell things, they have their own purposes.
On the one hand, it is to show one's own strength and strengthen the authority of the central government. Due to the existence of supernatural forces, this world is still a state-capital federation system, which is different from the centralized system in Lu Ping'an's memory.
So, there is no strict allocation of superiors and subordinates and personnel. To what level the central government's policies and instructions can reach and to what extent they are implemented depends more on the strength and authority of the central government.
It needs to show its presence from time to time, especially in the current chaotic situation, and it needs to show its strength regularly.
On the other hand, it is to display some imported products from foreign countries and indirectly advertise the plan of the seventh district.
This is the "imported product" of this foreign civilization, which makes the internal fighting in the cities of Changping a joke. The foreign products have attracted too many people's attention, and the other exhibition areas combined are not as good as a fraction of it.
And the fact that it is only on display but not for sale has also solidly created a wave of advertising for the future "duty-free port". At least Lu Ping'an was very moved when he saw the standard armors on the shelves.
"Holy shit. The power can has a complete automatic survival system."
Lu Ping'an felt his DNA move when he thought of the chainsaw and heavy gunner's crossbow he had obtained before.
Obviously, those cross-star civilizations already have very stable cross-world weapons mass production technology.
Also appearing at the same time were small spacecraft for personal use (taking off and landing within the atmosphere), supernatural radars whose sensitivity surpasses current technology, regenerative dolls with spare physical levels (another life), and so on.
The most important thing is that these equipment generally have low requirements for use, giving low-level professionals and even ordinary people additional ideas.
The emergence of these "treasures" will crush the exhibits in other cities to a catastrophic level.
The result was a "literary fight" between the parties, and then the dragon passed by and trampled everyone to death.
".This is quite subtle."
On the other hand, the big sports meeting has also begun.
However, unlike expectations, this time it did not receive much attention. The Abyss War incident has not been completely resolved. The focus of public opinion is still on the number of casualties that exceeded the limit.
"Uncle, you are so strong, why don't you fight the monsters of the abyss."
"Me, I don't want to shoot me"
In front of a TV interview, a contestant was directly questioned by a crying five-year-old child. The child's father died in the abyss, but what followed was an inter-city competition under the banner of friendly exchanges.
Could this be someone's arrangement? It's not clear, but the result has been achieved. Some media pointed out that the current major sports games and trade fairs are "flexible internal fighting" in a sense, and they are meaningless in themselves. They are just a waste of human resources and combat power. So, There is the scene of breaking the defense before.
Then, driven by public opinion, the incident and the movement itself were actively suppressed by local officials.
Obviously, even the organizers of this competition and activity did not expect that their arrangements would lead to such a result.
Lu Pingping, who was watching all this, was quite indifferent.
It's not easy to tell his superiors about his position. Some things just have to go as they go.
The two important events, the trade fair and the Grand Games, were both "internal fights" in a certain sense, but judging from the results, none of the parties involved in the struggle got anything good, at least there was no winner in sight.
Is there a big hand behind the scenes that guides all this? Lu Ping'an suspected that this was very possible. Even if there was really a mastermind behind the scenes, Bazheng would be the place that most expected "unity".
It seems that some people are worried that they have created a real fire.
But he has no evidence, and it is impossible to find evidence, just as many people have guessed. In the end, we can only see the Central Commissioner constantly emphasizing unity and overcoming the difficulties.
".As long as you feel satisfied."
After contacting the ancient city, it was confirmed that the senior officials of the ancient city did not intend to continue to stir up trouble, and Lu Ping'an felt much more relaxed.
He has completed a few tasks in his hand, and I can't say it's good, I can only say it's not bad. He has become famous himself, and he has helped the ancient city gain some reputation.
Although he was a little regretful that he did not have the opportunity to kill in the big sports meeting, he was actually not interested in the kind of civil war that was destined to hold back and could accidentally turn into a blood feud.
He knows his position as a "thug". If the senior officials of the ancient city still insist on it, he will naturally do it, but now that they have backed down, he himself is of course happy to take some time off.
The big sports meeting is still going on, but after adjusting some schedules, it has become a lot more peaceful. Lu Ping'an even went to watch a few games.
Various relatively safe superpower competitions were mainly played, and there were also actual battles. However, ruthless characters like Lu Ping'an were eventually stopped, and some newcomers under the age of 20 were thrown in to show their youthful vitality (Lu: Wait, I also If I’m less than 20, why aren’t I allowed to participate?)
Lu Ping'an was vaguely aware that there might be some force guiding him. While avoiding internal strife, he turned the attention of each region to external pressure.
Media public opinion is also working hard, with various reports on "anti-foreign fighters" and "foreign gold diggers", describing internal fighting as heinous and foreign war as sacred.
is that useful? It is obviously useful, especially for young people. They originally came here eager for the opportunity to make achievements and become famous. Now that they seem to have clearer goals, it is naturally easy to change their paths.
".This set of martial arts? It's kind of interesting."
Lu Ping'an and his party were actually happy to take this opportunity to stay in Changping for a while.
The legend of the "trading place" has spread at some levels. Lu Ping'an's daily income is quite stable. Although the official admission qualifications are still restricted, there are many more bosses here than in the ancient city. The Taboo Library daily They were all very full.
On the other side, Lu Ping An has a lot of additional social resources here.
For example, Kun Ba Sword Master, who was grateful to Lu Ping An for his favor, carefully trained Lu Ping An's "Four Techniques of Law and Order" to help him pass each level.
He even taught Lu Pingan a set of self-created advanced swordsmanship to him based on his actual situation. Although Lu Pingan didn't fully learn it, he at least memorized it, and his swordsmanship level also increased a lot.
It seems that even so, Kun Ba still feels that he owes Lu Ping'an a lot, and he wants to find a way to repay it. Xia Qin suffers a lot and is often dragged over for extra training.
Of course, maybe this is a good thing for her.
After constant waiting, Lu Pingan also got the reward he had been looking forward to.
"Three mantras, choose one out of three?"
Lu Ping An's achievements this time were great. After completing the settlement, the fact emerged that gave him the highest priority.
And this time, there are three people who have released the mantra quota. This is not a suicide weapon that limits the environment like the abyss mantra, but a super strategic weapon that can be used by the entire earth.
However, Lu Ping'an's study did not go smoothly this time.
The first target he chose ended in failure.
"Have you failed in learning the Rainfall Curse?"
This is "Yu Weng" Huang Yushan's special skill, which is the legendary ability to call for wind and rain.
Regardless of the strength, just this strategic ability to directly change the battlefield environment is extremely valuable.
".The minimum requirement for learning is the mental power of a low-level gold level. At the same time, it also requires extremely familiar affinity with wind, thunder, and water elements. It is best to have similar innate abilities."
Lu Ping'an was very envious of this, because it was not only a "mantra", but also a corresponding set of tactics and inheritance by "Yu Weng" Huang Yushan.
At least seventy-two class hours, how much you can learn depends on your ability.
Of course, the premise is that you must master this mantra
"Well, it seems impossible for me to transform my blood into a water-like elemental creature."
"Try it, just in case it works."
Even though the attributes were inconsistent, under Big Cat's strong request, Lu Ping'an was still the first to choose this most valuable option.
But obviously, the compatibility of his attributes is too poor, and it is completely impossible to cultivate both.
On the other hand, among his own team, Mei Yuge may have the talent to learn if he can be promoted to level 5 or 6. But there is no way Lu Pingan would make such a huge investment in the future for a newcomer who has not yet reached level 2. .
The most valuable option has no choice but to give up, and is happily accepted by a person with matching attributes. Fortunately, Lu Pingping can give the remaining two options a try.
