Unexpected Twists in the Election
"Can't you run for the title of 'Thousand King Gamblers'?" In the conference room of the Space-Time, after everyone was seated, Wang Xinghe asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.
If Old Wang can participate, they will do everything they can to push him up, even if it's Old Wang.
Old Wang shook his head and said, "Besides the requirements for Military Rank and Military Merit, one must be of Legendary status to be eligible for the selection!"
Hearing this, everyone felt a little regretful, but they didn't say much and continued to discuss how they should choose sides.
"Those who have been trying to win us over now completely trust us. Should we all stand together this time, or continue this charade?"
This is indeed a problem for everyone: taking all sides is high-risk and high-reward, while taking separate sides is low-risk and low-reward.
The specific choice needs careful analysis, as this election will determine the Future direction of the game.
"We should first consider whether our alliance can play a decisive role in the election. If so, then forming an alliance is a high-return, zero-risk endeavor!" Yang Wanli.
"Can't get up!" *3
Wang Qianduo, Qu Zhihua, and Wang Xinghe spoke at the same time.
Yang Wanli: "..."
You guys make me look really stupid!
"There's no special meaning to us sticking together, because the number of Player is still too small compared to the NPCs in this world!" Qu Zhihua said.
Earth Star has only recently entered the interstellar age, and its population is relatively large, mainly on the moon. Compared to the countless Planet in the Mecha World, it is insignificant.
Even if everyone on Earth Star joined the game, they would only make a ripple in this election.
Unless they go all out and use every means at their disposal, it would be too much of a loss to help an NPC rise to power at such a high cost.
"Then we'll have to split up and each go to our own faction. Thousand King, who will you choose?" Qu Zhihua.
"Of course I've chosen the Neutral Faction!" Old Wang.
"Zhang Yi? He's definitely a good choice!" Qu Zhihua.
"No, no, no, it's another one!" Old Wang.
"Uh... good luck!"
Old Wang actually had no choice. If he wanted to maintain his Neutral Faction, he had to choose Ye Wuyou.
Only by choosing that person can we prevent Zhang Yi from taking power and making it difficult to target him.

Three days later
The election has officially begun and will last for a month.
In previous elections, the votes of the Neutral Faction leaders were always the highest at the start.
Because Neutral Faction voters never reserve their votes to prevent others from nagging them; they always cast their votes as soon as they arrive.
But this time was different. Wuyou only got a few votes when she came up, and those people kept all the votes in their hands.
This is the impact Zhang Yi has had on the Neutral Faction. He has already Legendary Ninth Rank the legendary realm. If he can take that step, he will be the number one in the world.
While they were hesitant to offend him, they were also considering helping him get promoted, to see if he could become the one to take that step.
If they become human, they will have a second Epic powerhouse. In that case, if that person doesn't emerge, humanity will have the possibility of launching a counterattack against the Insectoid.
Neutral Faction, regardless of their considerations, prioritize dealing with the Insectoid.
But everyone suddenly noticed that after a brief lull in votes, the number of votes suddenly began to increase rapidly.
"Whose men made the move?"
"I don't know?"
"Is that Old Luo?"
"No matter who it is, I suddenly realize we've been overthinking it. Whether he can take that step or not has absolutely nothing to do with whether he becomes the top leader or not. We'll support him even if he doesn't become the top leader!"
"That's right!"
"That's perfect, we don't have to break the rules anymore!"
After they figured it out, the votes for the Neutral Faction leader, Ye Wuyou, increased even faster, far exceeding previous levels.
At first, no one paid much attention, because they knew that the Neutral Faction member would never become the leader of the Alliance.
But after two Red Ballot and a bunch of Yellow Ballot were thrown in, everyone panicked.
Especially for Zhang Yi's side, a bad premonition arose spontaneously.
There are three colors of ballots in the election. The red ballot represents the Legion Commander's choice, and this is the most important ballot.
Previously, the entire Alliance only had four Legion Commander, and now there are only five.
Then there are the yellow tickets, which represent the choices of Legendary strongmen and are very important.
Finally, there's the Normal White Ballot. Aside from the holders of the two types of ballots mentioned above, everyone else, regardless of their Position, only has one white ballot.
Aside from their different meanings, the three colored tickets are identical; both red and yellow tickets represent one ticket.
As for why those two types of votes are important, it's because Normal people will use the choices of Legendary strongmen and Legion Commander as a reference.
Furthermore, if a person gains the support of more than 70% of the Legion Commander and more than 70% of the Legendary powerhouses, or more than 80% of the Normal people, they will directly become the next Alliance Chair.
Ye Wuyou already has the support of two Legion Commander. Although he knows he can't get any more support, it would be a waste of a lot of votes.
Zhang Ping'an and Li Yulong could accept this kind of waste, but Zhang Yi could not.
In the eyes of Normal people, his only advantage is the large number of Legendary strongmen under his command, but he is now inferior to Ye Wuyou.
Normal love to follow the crowd because they simply don't have the time to follow the candidates.
Although he didn't have any Position Legion Commander under him, he Legendary many powerful individuals, which should have been his advantage.
However, the two votes from Old Wang and Wang Dalong directly negated his significant advantage over the other two sides.
Since no one has ever received the support of two Legion Commander before, this could make his already difficult election campaign even more challenging.
When the third Red Ballot appeared under Ye Wuyou's name, his bad premonition intensified, and Zhang Ping'an and Li Yulong also began to panic.
These three votes were cast by Xun Min, who had already stepped down from office. These three votes allowed Ye Wuyou to directly absorb all the votes from scattered voters.
He's now far ahead!
It was Old Wang and the members of the Future Guild who started this trend. After they cast their votes for Ye Wuyou, the Neutral Faction members followed suit.
Wang Dalong is a representative of the Neutral Faction; it's impossible for him to vote for someone else.
Xun Min, clearly resentful of being kicked out early, reportedly led his subordinates Legendary a retaliatory vote.
In addition to the original Legendary of the Neutral Faction, Ye Wuyou now has the support of three Legion Commander and more than forty Legendary, and is also far ahead on the side of the Normal public.
But the farce ends here!
Because of one action by Old Wang, Ye Wuyou, who was just a tool, almost became a celebrity.
Once the men under the three men started moving, the strange situation finally stopped.
Their votes quickly surpassed Ye Wuyou's, and they began to take a commanding lead.
Since Normal retail investors have run out of shares, the three are now competing on the size of their own influence.
Li Yulong and Zhang Ping'an initially didn't take Zhang Yi seriously at all. He used to be a loose Neutral Faction, and his power was nowhere near that of the Alliance's First Family or the Alliance's Largest Academy.
However, the two soon realized something was wrong: their own votes had plateaued, while Zhang Yi's votes were still increasing rapidly.
"Something's wrong. Find out what happened!"
Seeing that Zhang Yi's votes were about to double theirs, the people on both sides could no longer sit still.
News of the investigation quickly came back: Zhang Yi's men had somehow gained complete control of seven large Star Domain centered on their Homeworld Star Domain.
The number of people under his command has long exceeded their combined total; this situation is just the beginning, and the gap will only widen.
"What do we do now?" Zhang Ping'an's subordinate asked, somewhat at a loss.
"It's too late for any other way. Where will they get the money?" one person said.
"Could it have been retrieved from the Outpost Star?" another person asked.
"Haven't we already recovered a lot of the money from the Outpost Star? The rest isn't enough, is it?"
"What? Actually, only a little over 10 billion of the real illicit funds were recovered. The rest was money seized from their property; it wasn't illicit at all!"
"Damn, so he's using dirty money to fight us? If he wins, where will we put our faces?"
"We can't let him win! He'll never be a good ruler! Let's end this pointless election!" Zhang Ping'an said as he cast his vote.
Voting goals ensure Ye Wuyou!
