City of a Thousand Tops, Central Administrative District.
This was the absolute heart of Lucia. The central organs of the brain were all concentrated here, but now it was full of parents and girls who came from all over the country.
Although they came from all over the country, most families living in Siberia and the Far East could not come even if they wanted to. The air tickets were expensive, and even if they came, they might not be chosen. It was better to stay at home and watch the fun.
Most people came here to increase their sense of participation. But even so, the floating population of the City of a Thousand Tops had instantly risen to a terrifying level.
There were young women everywhere, and all of them were trying their best to dress up beautifully. Those who knew clearly that this was a selection of Extraordinaires, but those who did not know would think that the Tsar was choosing a concubine.
But this was much more precious than choosing a concubine. Lucia had countless concubines in its history, but it was the first time that a Transcendent was chosen. If one was chosen, they would instantly reach the peak of their life, and their fate would be rewritten.
So not only the middle class, but some ordinary citizens also gritted their teeth and came from all over the world. Lucia was a vast country, and it was not a small expense to travel from the easternmost part to the capital.
The hopes of thousands of families gathered in the Central Administrative District, and the eyes of the whole world were focused on it.
This time, Lucia's news shocked the whole world. Before the world could recover from the nuclear weapon above Musilica, Lucia threw out another trump card.
Even though there was no promotion abroad, with the help of the media of other countries, everyone knew that Lucia was going to openly select Extraordinaires from among the people. And from the video that was released, this Extraordinaire was extremely terrifying.
"The spread of Extraordinaires, from East Asia to the whole world!"
"Lucia's Extraordinaire Inheritance Secrets"
"How many secrets do we have around us?"
"Global Extraordinaire Collection"
As long as it was related to Extraordinaires, the sales would increase in a short period of time. A new wave of Extraordinaire craze swept the world.
In the past, the people of Europe only looked at Extraordinaires from afar. After all, there was no clear case of Extraordinaire happening in the world in Europe. Although there were many Extraordinaire events in the Island nation, they were too far away from Europe.
In the eyes of many people, the terrifying, high-handed, and overbearing Lucia government seemed to be much more pleasing to the eye. At the very least, the news of selecting Transcendents from among the commoners gave people a good impression. Although the Island nation also had Transcendents, the inheritors were also chosen from a small group of Sword Dao masters, which instantly prohibited the thoughts of ordinary people.
However, Lucia's Transcendent Selection was only for the country. Although it was in line with the country's interests, some of the organizations in Europa who had gone mad pulled up banners to protest in their own capital. Those who had the ability to act went to the City of a Thousand Tops to protest. Why didn't the Selection be given to the whole of Europa?
"Protest!
This is the wealth of the whole of Europe, we can't just let Lucia have it! "
"Everyone should have equal rights!"
"This is our Norse god."
Protest groups from several Northern European countries held banners to protest at the airport, and their angry appearance made people around them hide far away.
Although most Nordic people did not have much enthusiasm for political participation, it was hard to guarantee that there would not be some clown-like freaks.
"What a bunch of idiots, coming here to protest."
A Lucian intelligence officer did not know what to say to this group of Nordic idiots. His mission was to monitor the possible appearance of foreign spies.
There should not be any stupid spies hiding among the protesting crowd. The City of a Thousand Tops had completely become an intense spy battlefield, and the intelligence officers of various countries gathered in the City of a Thousand Tops.
Other than the TV videos that the Lucian government took the initiative to expose, all the countries were confused about Lucia's Transcendent Inheritance. They did not know what form the Transcendent Inheritance was in, nor did they know what the specific process was. However, with the mentality that there was no way out, several countries were willing to use their spies to test the waters.
When everyone did bad things, then the bad things could also be turned into righteous actions, which should be the case.
Among the people gathered in the Central Administrative District, there must be spies from other countries. They could be spies who had snuck in through some means, or they could be local citizens who had been instigated to rebel.
It was very difficult to trace the identity of modern spies. Maybe the owner of the small supermarket downstairs was a spy who had been hiding for more than ten years.
"Dad, if I am chosen, can I become Elsa?"
A blonde girl with braided hair and blue eyes looked at her father beside her. In order to increase the probability of being chosen, she was specially wearing Elsa's costume from "Frozen".
Looking around, there were many children in the Central Administrative District wearing Elsa's costume, like blue flowers decorating them.
No one knew whether this would increase the success rate, but the cosplay vendors were making a lot of money.
Metaphysics was common in any country. What if the Snow Goddess had really watched "Frozen"?
"Yes, Lisa."
The bearded old man with a stocky back touched his daughter's head and said, "You will definitely be chosen."
"Really?" Looking at the densely packed crowd around her, Lisa was a little nervous.
Other than on TV, she had never seen so many people in real life.
The bearded old man was also frightened, but not because of the crowd, but because of the spy mission. He now deeply regretted how easily he was instigated to rebel back then, causing him to have no choice but to step into the abyss step by step and listen to the guidance of foreign organizations. With the crimes he had committed, once exposed, there was absolutely no other way but to die.
If his daughter was chosen, her identity would definitely be investigated in detail, and it would be impossible to hide from the eyes of the government. However, the bearded old man believed that his daughter would absolutely not be chosen!
The crowd gathered in the City of a Thousand Tops was increasing, and some people who joined in the fun were broadcasting it to the world. This was already the most cost-free way to get rich after an extraordinary event.
A few days ago, there were some people from the Island nation who were bold enough to broadcast Zhufu City, but nothing could be seen in the thick fog, so the effect of the broadcast was zero.
No one knew how the so-called selection would be carried out.
At least, talent in foreign languages, singing, dancing, and basketball should be useless in the selection.
"It will definitely not be chosen from these people." A resident of the City of a Thousand Tops watched from afar. "They are all whimsical idiots."
"If there is really something good, how can it be their turn? There are so many big shots in the City of a Thousand Tops, which family doesn't have a few children?"
"It's just the country tricking them, putting on an act for other countries to see."
The residents of the City of a Thousand Tops watched with their arms crossed. Although that was what they said, if they had daughters at home, they would definitely bring their children to participate in the selection. It was a small matter that did not require much effort, and if they succeeded, it would completely change their fate.
The military and police held their weapons and guarded the surroundings, the scene was very solemn.
"It's time for the selection."
The crowd looked forward, waiting for the Lucy government's response.
Tens of thousands of eyes looked in the direction of the Kremlin, which had long been sealed off from afar.
Under the supervision of the military and police, an official who looked familiar to the Lucians but could not name strolled over.
The official was followed by vehicles and soldiers who were ready for battle, and his majestic aura was shocking.
The photographers gathered around pressed the shutter, not knowing what the meaning of the Spring and Autumn Period of the newspaper industry could be explained.
"The number of people who have rushed to the City of a Thousand Tops has reached more than 120,000. There are a million applicants in the City of a Thousand Tops, and there are many more applicants coming."
The secretary followed closely behind the official, reporting the current situation in real time. "But compared to the 4 million applicants online, it's still …"
"As expected, it doesn't matter how many people come, the most important thing is to attract the attention of the people, we need to boost the confidence of the whole country."
The internet was bustling, and the number of people who actually signed up was not small compared to the population base, but the number of people who could make up their minds to put it into practice was still very few, and most of them just stopped talking.
"Yes."
The secretary did not say anything. His position in the government was not considered low, not much different from the leaders of the ordinary countries, but he knew nothing about the methods the government would use to select the Transcendent inheritors.
Otherwise, his daughter's chances of winning … would not be that high. There were many big shots in the City of a Thousand Tops, and if there were any benefits, it would not be his turn.
Moreover, when it came to the inheritance of the first Transcendent in the country, the Snow Goddess, no one dared to be careless. At least, it was said that the Great Commander would fight with an iron fist to ensure the fairness of the inheritance.
The only thing the secretary knew was that there was an 'Inheritance Object' in the specially modified vehicle at the back. The appearance of the Inheritance Object was mysterious, and they could boldly bring it to the public, so the government was quite confident.
The eyes of the whole country and the whole world were focused on the City of a Thousand Tops, and the fact that they dared to show the appearance of the Transcendent inheritance in front of the mass media was also a great boost to the national strength of Lucia and the confidence of the people.
"It's right in front."
The focus of the crowd and the media was first on the official, then on the vehicle behind. The armed guards accompanied the vehicle, bringing with them a strong sense of killing.
The real big thing was in the vehicle!
— — Everyone had the same thought in their mind.
"They're here, and the one walking in front is the Emergency Minister … I guess the vehicle behind him must have an Extraordinary item."
Lucia had many YouTube users, they would not let go of such a good traffic, and the government did not stop them.
[Is it finally going to be real?]
[I don't believe that Lucia can take out an Extraordinary inheritance for the people.]
[Maybe it's a scam!]
[It must be a scam!
It's just like what Lucia always does!]
[With Lucia's territory, it's not impossible for a Transcendent to appear.]
Seeing that the people in the livestream were arguing, the YouTube users were happy to see the comments in the bullet screen. The more people there were, the more lively the livestream would be.
As for whether or not the government was deceiving the people, the truth would be revealed later.
"Achoo!"
He sneezed all of a sudden, and shook his clothes.
