179: Luo Lei really dares to kill you

Outside, the rain was not small, and the wet ground would splash water when stepped on.

Lecture hall.

The auditorium was basically full.

In the aisles next to the seats, the reporters filming the live broadcast were crowded.

Leader election, this is a major event concerning all Humans!

Currently, online discussions are almost entirely about this matter.

There are only two candidates for this term: Li Huaishu and Li Shantu.

...

"Oh my God, it's candidate Li Huaishu again, it's been over ten years, and he still feels so reliable!"

"I think Li Shantu is also good; he's been a candidate for seven consecutive years, shouldn't it be his turn to be elected this year?"

"Agree with the comment above, Li Huaishu has been in office for so many years and hasn't achieved anything outstanding; it's better to give the opportunity to Li Shantu, maybe he can bring us a brand new era!"

"What's the use of us talking? The final decision still depends on the votes of those Leaders."

In the reporters' live streams, the bullet comments surged and never stopped.

Under the gaze of countless eyes, the two protagonists of this grand event entered one after another.

The next moment, a White-Haired Old Man walked out onto the stage: "The new Leader will be chosen today between Li Huaishu and Li Shantu; no matter who the result is, I hope they can lead us Humans towards a better future!"

Upon hearing these words, most people in the hall nodded slightly with serious expressions.

"Everyone has arrived, so please invite Mr. Li Huaishu to first deliver his important speech."

"Clap clap clap..." Applause rang out.

In every Leader election process, candidates have an opportunity to speak.

They mainly talk about their plans after becoming Leader and prove their capabilities.

It's equivalent to campaigning.

However, giving a speech in front of these Leaders makes no difference whether you speak or not.

Their votes will go to whoever they were intended for; there can be no change!

Li Huaishu clearly understood this point and wasn't very enthusiastic about the speech.

Most of his thoughts now were elsewhere.

Through his intelligence network today, Li Huaishu already knew that Luo Lei had arrived at the central Base City!

Coming at this time, still silently, neither deliberately hiding nor being ostentatious.

He vaguely felt that Luo Lei would definitely not be so well-behaved.

...

He went up to give his speech and came down when it was over.

For nearly half an hour, Li Huaishu performed at his usual level.

Amidst a round of applause, he returned to his seat.

It was Li Shantu's turn.

Drawing everyone's attention, as soon as he stepped onto the stage, he said seriously: "After I become the Leader, I will lead everyone to reclaim the Old World..."

As Li Shantu painted this grand vision, waves of applause in the hall did not stop for a moment!

Looking at the Leaders whose expressions were even somewhat fawning, Li Huaishu furrowed his brows.

The speeches ended, and the voting process began.

One by one, the leading figures stood up and walked towards the two boxes below the stage.

Compared to previous terms, in this current term, Li Huaishu felt like an outsider!

He just sat calmly in his seat, watching the election ballots being cast into Li Shantu's box.

"No way, did candidate Li Huaishu do something that angered both Heaven and Humans? Why is no one voting for him?"

"It's very possible!"

The audiences in various live streams began to speculate.

Li Huaishu looked up at Li Shantu.

He found that the other party had already cast a mocking gaze towards him.

There was no verbal exchange between them, but they read the meaning in each other's eyes.

Li Huaishu had anticipated this situation.

After the God's death, the nature of the Leader's position had changed!

During the apocalypse, one needed ability to become the Leader.

After the apocalypse, one needed a background to become the Leader.

This was the current reality!

With the tide turning, no matter how unwilling he was, Li Huaishu was helpless.

After all, in the eyes of others, after he brought up that matter again in the council hall a few days ago, he had already completely stood on the opposite side of the Source Stone Hall.

The results of the vote were quickly announced.

"The final candidate for the new Leader is... Li Shantu!"

"Clap clap clap clap clap..."

Waves of applause rang out.

Li Shantu, standing on the high platform, curled his lips into a smile: "Finally, after so many years, I'm finally in this position!"

"I have to thank Luo Lei and that woman for killing the God for me, changing the structure of the World, and fulfilling me!"

In his murmuring words, Li Shantu was completely intoxicated!

Until... "Boom!"

Without any warning, the ceiling of the entire lecture hall was cut open by a streak of scarlet sword light, completely without warning!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"

The heavy rain outside poured in directly.

Many people in the hall screamed and backed away.

In the misty, watery sky, A Man standing in the void, holding a blood sword in one hand, was revealed in everyone's sight.

"Has the threshold for becoming a Leader now dropped to this level?"

In the sky, A Man's voice was like muffled thunder, making many people's eardrums ache!

Li Shantu suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with disbelief: "Luo Lei?!"

The moment he saw this man, the panic in his heart flashed and disappeared; remembering what Wang Pu had told him when he arrived, he calmed down slightly.

"What are you doing? Do you know where this is? Destroying the Leader election venue, do you know you've already committed a crime!"

"This kind of behavior?" Luo Lei's expression didn't change much.

Drops of icy rain slid from his weathered face, and his wolf-like eyes fell upon Li Shantu.

"I never said I was just destroying the venue."

As the indifferent voice fell.

In the sky, Luo Lei's figure instantly disappeared!

"He's gone?"

Li Shantu was slightly stunned, and the others were also bewildered.

"Tap~"

The blood sword, made even colder after being soaked by the rain, rested on Li Shantu's neck without warning.

At this moment, Li Shantu's entire body trembled violently!

The people next to him were even more horrified: "When did he appear here!"

"Luo Lei, what are you doing? Stop quickly!"

In such a situation, the people present could not ignore it.

One after another, the leaders, their combat armors manifested!

Waves of powerful Aura converged, pressing directly towards Luo Lei!

The terrifying power would make even a Purple Crystal Peak unsteady.

But Luo Lei was clearly not in this category.

Even if his strength hadn't fully recovered...

"Luo Lei! You can't kill me! If you kill me, you'll be the enemy of all Humans!"

Li Shantu's throat was hoarse from shouting; he had never felt death so clearly!

"All Humans? That's just your own idea."

A strong person with no more reservations is absolutely terrifying.

Luo Lei's hand holding the sword suddenly exerted force!

"No!"

"Rip!"

Li Shantu's eyes widened; he now had only one question.

Why was Uncle Wang so certain that Luo Lei, this madman, wouldn't attack him?
