Chapter 188: Lobbying for Votes, Staying Out of Each Other's Way (Seeking Subscriptions)

No matter which world it is, strength is the Foundation of everything.

If the Star Alliance Conference cannot bring substantial help to Lin Yuan, there is no need to waste energy on it.

"Why don't I ask around?"

Lin Yuan finished today's Cultivate and connected his consciousness to the Virtual World.

A personal space.

A sturdy, elderly man with a red nose was sitting leisurely in front of a dining table, occasionally picking up the wine pot in front of him to take a sip, his Face full of enjoyment.

Right at this moment.

Lin Yuan's figure appeared.

"Hahahaha, Brother Thirteen, come over. This wine is a rare fine wine. If it were outside, I couldn't afford it and could only drink it in the Virtual World."

Red Nose Shi Feng immediately greeted him.

"Brother Shi Feng, every time I see you, you're drinking." Lin Yuan walked over and sat opposite Red Nose Shi Feng.

Red Nose Shi Feng was a good friend Lin Yuan made in the circle of founders and also the founder of an evolution path.

Because the two were in the Annan Star Alliance, Red Nose Shi Feng often pulled Lin Yuan to drink with him.

After a while, the two became familiar with each other.

Compared with Lin Yuan, Shi Feng was much older, having lived for tens of thousands of years, and his citizen Rank had also reached Rank Six.

"Wine is indeed a good thing, that feeling of being half-drunk and half-sober—" Red Nose Shi Feng sighed and said.

With his strength, as long as a thought moved, he could sober up, but why sober up? Wasn't it good to immerse himself in a drunken state?

"Good wine."

Lin Yuan picked up a cup, tasted it slightly, and nodded slightly.

The fine wine of the Virtual World belonged to pure luxury goods. Many fine wines in reality had many magical effects.

For example, improving the Physical Body? Nourishing the Soul? Or healing injuries and so on.

But in the Virtual World, the fine wine only had taste left. Precisely because of this, the fine wine in the Virtual World was far cheaper than in reality.

Just like the fine wine Lin Yuan drank just now, named 'Fantasy Wine', it could make one's Soul purer. Placed in the real world, a cup was worth at least one billion civilization coins.

But in the Virtual World, it was only ten million a cup, a hundred times cheaper.

"Alright, Brother Thirteen, what do you want from me?"

After chatting for a while, Shi Feng took the initiative to ask.

Thirteen was the name Lin Yuan gave himself in the founders' world.

"I want to ask about the Star Alliance Conference." Lin Yuan asked directly.

Although Lin Yuan had no interest in such a conference, he still wanted to hear Shi Feng's thoughts.

Being Rank Six Citizens, Shi Feng had lived for tens of thousands of years, and in terms of connections and vision, he was much stronger than Lin Yuan.

"The Star Alliance Conference?"

"Oh, it's the Star Alliance Conference again."

Red Nose Shi Feng's expression was enlightened.

"Brother Shi Feng, do you think there is any need to attend this Star Alliance Conference?" Lin Yuan expressed his confusion.

"The need to attend?"

Red Nose Shi Feng immediately became spirited, "Of course you have to attend. Why not seize an opportunity where treasures are given away for free?"

"Given away for free?" Lin Yuan was slightly confused.

Could it be that the Annan Star Alliance was so rich that it gave heavy treasures to every Rank Six Citizen participating in the conference?

"That's right."

"Brother Thirteen, you are still young and haven't been promoted to a Rank Six Citizen for long, so you don't know the rules inside."

A smile appeared on Red Nose Shi Feng's Face.

"The purpose of the Star Alliance Conference is to resolve contradictions among the many Star Domains within the alliance, but how to resolve them?"

"For example, a resource planet of rare value appears at the junction of two Star Domains. Who should it be given to?"

"Or the resources allocated by Human Civilization are only enough for three Star Domains to use, how should one choose?"

Red Nose Shi Feng clicked his tongue and said.

"Right, who should it be given to?"

Lin Yuan also became interested. It was hard to have a clear boundary for such problems. Even if the Three Goddesses came forward, giving it to one side would inevitably offend the other.

Could it be that the resource planet was cut in half, one half for each?

"Then we have to look at us."

Red Nose Shi Feng smiled and said: "At the Star Alliance Conference, contradictory problems between Star Domains will all be brought to the table and finally voted on by us."

"The side with more votes wins."

"So that's how it is." Lin Yuan suddenly understood.

Of course, the problems and contradictions that could be mentioned at the Star Alliance Conference belonged to the kind where both sides had their own reasons.

Problems and contradictions that could be slightly clarified had long been decided by the Three Goddesses.

"Therefore, our voting rights as Rank Six Citizens are very precious."

Red Nose Shi Feng said pointedly.

"Very precious?" Lin Yuan looked at Red Nose Shi Feng.

"Because the two Star Domains experiencing problems and contradictions will both pay a huge price to please us, hoping to cast their votes for them during the conference vote."

Red Nose Shi Feng said.

"I understand."

Lin Yuan nodded.

Simply put.

When encountering things that even the Three Goddesses could not decide, or rather, no matter which side won, it would not affect the overall situation of Human Civilization.

Then it would be left to high-level citizens to decide.

"There are not many unresolved problems and contradictions between Star Domains. Every Star Alliance Conference has about a dozen or so. Brother Thirteen, as long as it doesn't involve the Star Domain you are in, how to vote is entirely up to us, right?"

Red Nose Shi Feng said with a smile.

"Quite interesting."

Lin Yuan also smiled.

In fact, this was also a reflection of the special status of high-level citizens.

Being able to participate in the decision-making power of hundreds of Star Domains.

"In addition, after every Star Alliance Conference ends, we high-level citizens will take advantage of our presence to hold several exchange meetings to exchange for the resources and treasures we need."

Red Nose Shi Feng continued.

Although the Human Civilization Alliance had a special mall app to sell all kinds of treasures.

However, some precious and rare treasures were often in short supply, and this kind of exchange meeting was for these rare and precious treasures.

"That's not bad."

Lin Yuan thought of the weapons and treasures of those alien races obtained by his Primordial Spirit going to the Alien Race Battlefield, as well as the inheritance of the Eighth-Order Evolver Ou Yin.

There were many things inside that he couldn't use.

As for selling directly to Human Civilization, that would be too much of a loss.

It could be disposed of through this kind of exchange meeting.

"Still participating now?"

Red Nose Shi Feng asked.

"Participating."

Lin Yuan nodded.

The premise that he was not interested in the Star Alliance Conference was that it could not bring help to himself.

But now, hearing Shi Feng's description, for Rank Six Citizens like them, participating in the Star Alliance Conference could completely make a fortune.

"Hahahahahaha."

Red Nose Shi Feng laughed loudly and said.

"Right, Brother Thirteen, do you need me to help introduce those few Star Domains that need votes?"

Red Nose Shi Feng asked.

If Lin Yuan didn't have a Star Domain he wanted to vote for, he could completely 'sell' his votes at a very high price to those Star Domains that needed votes.

"Thank you very much, Brother Shi Feng."

Hearing this, Lin Yuan said seriously.

Ordinary Evolvers couldn't do this kind of matchmaking; it required someone with very extensive connections.

"No need to thank me."

"We are all friends."

Shi Feng waved his hand and then said: "Then Brother Thirteen, wait for me for a moment."

After Shi Feng finished speaking.

His figure disappeared.

Obviously, he went to contact someone.

Lin Yuan sat down and waited for a while.

A moment later.

Red Nose Shi Feng appeared again.

In addition, a young man appeared beside him.

"This is Brother Thirteen. Just talk to Brother Thirteen about your Star Domain's affairs." Red Nose Shi Feng said casually.

"Mr. Thirteen."

The young man slightly bowed toward Lin Yuan, "My name is 'Nadan', coming from the Looking Moon Star Region."

"This time, the contradiction between our Looking Moon Star Region and the Golden Dragon Star Region will be brought up at the Star Alliance Conference."

"At that time, I hope Mr. Thirteen can cast a vote for our Looking Moon Star Region."

After the young man 'Nadan' finished speaking, he respectfully placed a piece of white paper on the dining table.

"As long as Mr. Thirteen agrees, the treasures and resources on this will be the remuneration paid to you."

The young man 'Nadan' slightly bowed to Red Nose Shi Feng and withdrew from the personal space.

"Tsk tsk, this Looking Moon Star Region is also miserable. Its strength is inferior to the Golden Dragon Star Region, and it can only seek help everywhere like this—"

Red Nose Shi Feng sighed and said.

Some powerful Star Domains cultivated many Rank Six Citizens, and these Rank Six Citizens would naturally vote for their hometown Star Domains at the Star Alliance Conference.

Conversely, weak Star Domains had scarce Rank Six Citizens and could only pay a huge price to seek help from Rank Six Citizens of other Star Domains.

The Three Goddesses knew about this situation, but they did not stop it. The purpose was to encourage major Star Domains to Cultivate more high-level citizens.

High-level citizens did not necessarily have to open up an evolution path or research and create to have it.

Going to the Alien Race Battlefield and fighting against alien races could also earn a large amount of Merit Points.

"Let's look at the conditions given by the Looking Moon Star Region."

Red Nose Shi Feng glanced at the piece of white paper in front of Lin Yuan.

"Looking Moon Star Region?"

Lin Yuan thought for a moment. If he remembered correctly, this should be the hometown Star Domain of the Eighth-Order Evolver Ou Yin?

"Let me take a look."

Lin Yuan picked up the white paper and shared it with Red Nose Shi Feng to view together.

"A Rank Seven Soul defense treasure."

Red Nose Shi Feng clicked his tongue slightly. The first line of treasures on the white paper made his heart beat a little.

This was a Soul defense treasure that guarded the Soul. No matter which evolution path an Evolver cultivated, they were extremely eager for it.

"Huh?"

Lin Yuan's heart stirred slightly.

Although he had an Eighth-Order Soul defense treasure, it was damaged after all. Who knew how long it would take to repair it.

Before that, temporarily using a Rank Seven Soul defense treasure as a replacement was not a problem either.

Lin Yuan was not worried that after the Eighth-Order Soul defense treasure was repaired, he wouldn't know how to dispose of this Rank Seven Soul defense treasure.

Treasures that guarded the Soul like this never lacked buyers. As long as Lin Yuan was willing, he could sell them at a premium at any time.

Lin Yuan's gaze moved away from the first line of the white paper.

Looking towards the second line.

"Jianmu fragment, containing a large amount of vital energy inside, can reshape the Physical Body for a Rank Seven Evolver once."

Compared with the Rank Seven Soul defense treasure, the second Jianmu fragment was slightly inferior, especially for Lin Yuan who possessed the Divine Ability of 'Rebirth from a Drop of Blood', it was even rather tasteless.

But just because Lin Yuan couldn't use it himself didn't mean other Evolvers couldn't use it either. It could completely be sold or bartered.

Lin Yuan continued to look towards the third line of the white paper.

"Azure Heaven Water, can purify Physical Body Impurities and consolidate the Physical Body Origin—"

"This Looking Moon Star Region is very sincere."

After reading the three treasures, Lin Yuan nodded slightly and said.

These three treasures were all treasures that Rank Seven Evolvers greatly desired, especially the first one.

"Should I agree to them?"

Lin Yuan looked at Red Nose Shi Feng.

Whether it was the Looking Moon Star Region or the Golden Dragon Star Region.

It had nothing to do with Lin Yuan; voting for either side had no impact on Lin Yuan.

"Don't rush."

"Let's first see the attitude of the Golden Dragon Star Region side."

Red Nose Shi Feng finished speaking and disappeared again.

By the time Shi Feng came back, a tall man wearing a golden robe appeared beside him.

"Jin Tianzhao, the price given by the Looking Moon Star Region to Brother Thirteen is not small. You need to step it up."

Red Nose Shi Feng reminded him.

Obviously.

The tall man wearing a golden robe beside him was named Jin Tianzhao, coming from the Golden Dragon Star Region.

"Mr. Thirteen?"

The golden-robed man Jin Tianzhao carefully looked at Lin Yuan, "Mr. Thirteen should be attending the Star Alliance Conference for the first time, right?"

Jin Tianzhao asked.

"Indeed the first time."

Lin Yuan nodded.

The Star Alliance Conference was once every hundred years. For Rank Six Citizens, a hundred years was not considered long, and even if they weren't familiar with each other, they more or less knew one another.

"Since that's the case, does Mr. Thirteen know the strength of my Golden Dragon Star Region?"

Jin Tianzhao continued to ask.

As soon as these words came out.

Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged.

Red Nose Shi Feng's brows frowned instead, "Jin Tianzhao, what do you mean by that? If you want Brother Thirteen to vote for your Golden Dragon Star Region, quickly bring out the remuneration. Don't say those irrelevant things."

"Remuneration?"

Jin Tianzhao shook his head and said: "I came here just to see Mr. Thirteen and say a few words to Mr. Thirteen."

"Mr. Thirteen, you just became a Rank Six Citizen not long ago, you shouldn't forge ties with my Golden Dragon Star Region—"

Jin Tianzhao hadn't finished speaking yet.

"Get lost."

Red Nose Shi Feng was full of impatience and directly kicked the other party out of the personal space.

"This Jin Tianzhao is too arrogant. Who is he threatening?"

Red Nose Shi Feng's expression was somewhat irritable, "I originally thought the Looking Moon Star Region would put some pressure on the Golden Dragon Star Region, but the other party came directly over and threatened us?"

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Yuan didn't care.

Since they couldn't talk terms, there was no need to talk.

"I'll go properly ask that Jin Tianzhao who gave him the courage."

Red Nose Shi Feng's figure disappeared again.

Another personal space.

Red Nose Shi Feng glared angrily at the man wearing the golden robe.

"Jin Tianzhao, what on earth do you mean? Brother Thirteen is my friend. Even if you don't need Brother Thirteen's vote, there's no need to say things like that."

Red Nose Shi Feng's tone was dissatisfied.

"Brother Shi Feng, you should know that with the strength of my Golden Dragon Star Region, even if that Looking Moon Star Region invites foreign aid everywhere, it cannot win."

Jin Tianzhao said indifferently.

This was the confidence coming from a powerful Star Domain.

Relying solely on the Rank Six Citizens cultivated by itself, the Golden Dragon Star Region was the sum of several or even ten Star Domains.

"Brother Shi Feng, how long have you known that Thirteen? To think so much for the other party—you, oh you, you just love to make friends with those so-called friends—"

Jin Tianzhao shook his head and said.

"So-called friends?"

Red Nose Shi Feng's expression was weird.

"Brother Thirteen, although he just became a Rank Six Citizen, his age is definitely no more than a thousand years old, and his future potential is limitless. Otherwise, why do you think I befriended him?"

Red Nose Shi Feng sighed, "You gave Brother Thirteen so little Face, there's nothing I can do. But after thousands or tens of thousands of years, when Brother Thirteen grows up, I hope you can still be like today—"

"A Rank Six Citizen under a thousand years old."

Jin Tianzhao's expression changed slightly, then he calmed down.

"So what."

"Could he still become a Rank Seven Citizen in the future?"

"Even if he becomes a Rank Seven Citizen, he can do nothing to my Golden Dragon Star Region."

"It's nothing more than—"

Jin Tianzhao said indifferently: "Staying out of each other's way."

"Staying out of each other's way?"

Red Nose Shi Feng glanced at Jin Tianzhao and turned to leave.

Staying out of each other's way?

Who is the tiny well water.

Who is the vast river water.

Heaven knows.
