Stable

But precisely because of this, Old Wang was at a disadvantage from the very beginning.

Since no Neutral Faction participated this time, they still have their votes.

As for Old Wang's Neutral Faction stance, they no longer acknowledge it.

This situation continued for seven days, during which Old Wang's votes remained lukewarm under attacks from both sides.

This finally made them stop paying attention to Old Wang, because he seemed posed no threat at all.

Three days later, after they cast their votes for the Legion Commander for themselves, everyone knew the time had come.

"Start the operation!"

As soon as Qu Zhihua sent the message, everyone immediately began to take action.

First, Old Wang cast his vote for himself as the Legion Commander, but they didn't care; it was just a futile struggle.

Then the Spacetime Legion started to move, and the hundreds of millions of votes instantly allowed Old Wang to recover a little bit of his disadvantage.

Neither side paid any attention, and their subsequent efforts were merely futile struggles.

Then Xun Min's side also started to get motivated. He cast his vote for the Legion Commander for Old Wang, and then his subordinates and the people of the Star Domain under his jurisdiction followed suit.

In the blink of an eye, both sides saw Old Wang's vote count Rocket.

Useless... Damn it, how come he's catching up with us?

But Old Wang's men didn't stop their efforts. The Lobbying Company also started to exert their strength, trying to win over thousands of companies, including dozens of large, neutral ones.

Their thoughtful door-to-door service made these people, who had never imagined they would receive such treatment, readily agree to join them.

Of course, some promises were made, but they were all relatively unimportant things. It was their first time enjoying such treatment, and they hadn't yet begun to take advantage of it.

Of course, there are greedy people too, but Old Wang and his team won't associate with them. They'll settle scores with them once they succeed.

After these people started to exert their efforts, Old Wang's votes were now tied with both sides.

Finally, those who went down to the grassroots level started to exert their strength, and Old Wang's votes directly surpassed theirs and began to run away with the lead.

The influence of Grassroots Cadres far exceeded that of Old Wang and his team; the number of votes they brought in was more than that of the Star Domain they were currently in charge of.

Old Wang has basically secured his victory at this point. As long as he remains stable and doesn't get carried away, he can basically prepare to take office.

In just three days, the situation completely reversed!

Only then did Zhang Ping'an and Li Yulong's men begin to study their strategy.

They discovered that the man's strength wasn't actually that great, but he used every ounce of his strength to the blade.

Whether it's Lobbying Company or poaching employees from their ranks at the grassroots level, every plan they come up with would normally be considered brilliant.

But now all they feel is bitterness. It's not that they didn't value Old Wang; it's that they didn't value him enough.

These fragmented pieces of intelligence had also appeared on their desks, but they were unable to piece them together.

At the same time, they had only cared about their own little corner of the world and ignored other possibilities. Their defeat was not unjust, and they accepted it wholeheartedly.

"We still have a chance. The neutral legions haven't voted yet, so a draw is still possible."

"As long as we draw, we can advance to the Runoff Stage, and their tactics will be useless!" one of Li Yulong's men said.

"It's too late. Just now, Carrot and his men cast their votes for him, and Wang Dalong and the others followed suit!" someone said.

"Damn it! What are they trying to do? Are they really going to make an Otherworlder the Alliance Chair?" The person who spoke first slammed his hand on the table and said anxiously.

If Li Yulong fails this time, their entire investment will be lost. Not only will they receive no return, but they will also be in danger.

The danger, of course, doesn't refer to Old Wang settling scores with them, but rather to their own enemies not letting them go.

Especially him, who is used to being arrogant and has many enemies.

"Should I make a move?" After slamming his hand on the table, the man made a downward slicing gesture and said menacingly.

"If you want to die, don't drag us down with you. Do you know how difficult it is to silently kill a Legendary on the Alliance Central Star?"

It would take at least Legendary Fifth Tier or higher to kill a newly entered Legendary!

And once you open that door, do you know what you'll face in the future?

"If you make even the slightest noise and get caught, no one can save you!" Li Yulong said.

"Yes, I understand, I was just saying," the man said, then turned around and muttered, "Legendary Fifth Tier or higher?"

His voice was very soft; no one in the noisy conference room should have heard him.

After Zhang Yi fell, Wang Dalong and Carrot became the core of the Neutral Faction, not counting Ye Wuyou.

Their choice of Old Wang is tantamount to the entire Neutral Faction choosing Old Wang.

Now there's absolutely no suspense. All that's left is for the election to end, and then Old Wang can ascend to the throne of Alliance Chair.

While stabilizing the situation, the members of the Spacetime Legion began planning what they would do after Old Wang took office.

"We must keep our promises to all parties, but we must put people first in everything we do."

The chaebols and uncooperative forces were all purged, while the larger powers slowly eroded their influence.

This dark world, we must change it little by little; moving too quickly will backfire...

The bigwigs of the Spacetime Legion were discussing various matters and details at Old Wang's mansion on Central Star, while Old Wang, Wang Xinghe, and other gamers from the guild were quietly doing other things on the side.

They didn't understand these things either. If it weren't for the promotion, Wang Xinghe and the others wouldn't be here. But Old Wang couldn't leave without being here.

"Let's play this!" Wang Xinghe said, placing a black piece on the virtual chessboard in front of him.

"Are you sure?" Old Wang.

"Sure!"

"Okay, I'll play this one. There are four left, so I can't block either end. One gold, thanks!" Old Wang said. That's right, they were playing Gomoku (Five in a Row).

Moreover, Old Wang is a real dog; he played against the opponent using artificial intelligence, and the opponent never won once.

"Every step you take will lead to more regret!" Wang Xinghe said.

"No way, haven't you heard of 'once a move is made, it can't be taken back'?" Old Wang said.

"Thousand King Gambler, give me a chance!" Wang Xinghe said in a very smug voice.

"No... wait a minute, we have guests!" Old Wang suddenly stood up and said, and judging from the murderous intent emanating from him, the newcomer was clearly up to no good!

"What's wrong?" Lin Qimeng asked when she saw Old Wang suddenly stand up with a serious expression.

"Don't worry about these uninvited guests. They're not an enemy you can handle!" Old Wang said, then he walked out of the room.

At this moment, the mansion assigned to Old Wang by the Alliance was completely concealed by two layers of Magic Array.

The inner red layer is Great Restraining Array, designed to prevent Old Wang and the others from escaping. The outer layer, of unknown color, appears to be for soundproofing and blocking out shadows.

Standing at the gate of his mansion was a Spark of Light Mecha that bore an 80% resemblance to Yu Xiaoxin; this must be its Mecha Legendary.

This Light-Type Legendary Assassin Mecha excels at rushing in and finishing off enemies; surprisingly, it's also adept at assassination.

"Still having a meeting at this hour! You're really hardworking. There's definitely a reason you won!" said the pilot of the Spark of Light.

"Don't you know that we Otherworlder are unkillable? Besides exposing yourself, what else have you done today...?"

Before Old Wang could finish speaking, the system notification arrived.

"System notification: The Alliance Chair Ultimate Trial has begun. From this moment until you take office, any death or mission failure will result in disqualification as Alliance Chair!"

This system notification was a slap in the face to Old Wang; he only showed up after he had already spoken.

Old Wang looked up at the sky, then remained silent, summoning his Mecha and pointing it at the person at the door.

If there really is a God in this world, everyone can complain, but Old Wang is the only one who can't.

He has already received enough; one should know how to be content.

However, if possible, he still wanted to discuss with that person whether they could give him the hint before he had already spoken, as the feeling of being slapped in the face was not pleasant.

Seeing that Old Wang had stopped speaking and summoned his Mecha, the opposing Spark of Light did not immediately attack, but instead asked:

"It seems you know. I was quite surprised when I found out; you don't seem to be very popular!"

But I heard your Mecha is quite different. Could you tell me what makes it different?

You'll find out soon enough!

After saying that, Old Wang vanished from his spot in an instant, his fist, burning with flames, heading straight for Spark of Light's face.
