Global Mining.

Chapter 936 The Vacancies in the Bronze City Flower Position

Although they were on different factions, Uriel felt that their personalities hadn't changed much from before, and they were even talking more. After all, Uriel used to just leave his character AFK mining and transporting resources, with almost no interaction between them.

Sometimes you only feel lost when you lose something.

Uriel tried his best to salvage the situation: "What about the Plague Angel? She also participated in the Millennium Competition, why didn't she advance?"

The wine angel sighed, "Promotion is very strict. If she isn't promoted, then she can't be promoted."

The shoe angel lamented, "It's a pity, she's also the only lady whose shoes I have absolutely no interest in."

Pawa landed and sighed, "What a pity, I didn't even have a chance to say a few words to her."

Emmmm…

The answer was nonsensical and amounted to nothing. Forget it, just hearing her name tells me her crimes are far more serious than those committed by a drunkard; she shouldn't be forced to leave.

Uriel asked, "Can I enter the village now?"

Wine Angel: "No way!"

Shoe Angel: "Hidden agenda!"

I just wanted to meet the four city beauties!
Pawa said, "We are not the guardian deities of this village, and in principle, we have no right to refuse entry or exit."

Uriel laughed and said, "Pava's landing was not only rational, but also professional."

The Wine Angel laughed and said, "Old Shoes and I have only served as guardians of the Chamber of Commerce. Pava is the guardian of the Great City. We are not as professional as him."

The shoe angel exclaimed, "An unprofessional god must do unprofessional things; he's not allowed into the village!"

The wine angel nodded: "That's right, you're not allowed in."

"Fuck you!"

Uriel was at his wit's end, so he called out to the guild leader in the guild channel: "Guild leader, please respond if you hear me..."

The crowd burst into laughter: "Uriel, the greatest mercy we can show is that we didn't arrest you on the spot."

Just as the laughter was starting, people arrived at the throne room of the Bronze Church where Metatron was located.

Metatron was suddenly startled: "The city lord and his wife have arrived!"

Gabriel sighed, "It must be about finding Tifa."

Metatron sighed helplessly, "Fine, it's boring to just sit in the lobby all the time, let's go out and look for something."

The city lord came over and bowed: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Metatron sighed, "I understand. I'll go find Tifa myself."

The city lord shook his head: "Your Majesty, the city flower is a key candidate in the selection of the empire's cultural cities. The position cannot be vacant for too long. My wife and I mean that we should take our time to find Tifa, but we cannot let the position remain vacant for too long because of her. We should select a new city flower immediately."

The crowd erupted in an uproar: "The new city flower!"

Metatron was also bewildered: "This...is there such a rule?"

The city lord sighed, "My newly submitted supplementary clauses have not yet been approved by the empire."

The lady said urgently, "That's why we came here to ask for Your Majesty's support and guarantee."

Replace Tifa!! Tifa was the perfect NPC I created!
Metatron was extremely unwilling: "Tifa is your daughter, are you really willing to let her be replaced?"

The city lord sighed, "Tifa wasn't kidnapped by pirates as the announcement stated. She was evading investigation by palace spies. The empire is covering up for her, which is also covering up for the city. She has already committed a crime, and the empire cannot let a criminal affect the operation of its offices. I cannot let a daughter's mistake affect the city's development."

The lady cried even harder, tears streaming down her face: "It's also my fault. I raised this child to be too willful since he was little."

Hmmmm... Is there a process of raising it?
Metatron then asked, "But the city flower must be the city lord's daughter, right?"

The city lord's wife cried, "We can adopt her as our daughter!"

The city lord sighed, "Actually, it doesn't matter if she doesn't want to be an adopted daughter. I will apply for new terms to remove this restriction, and outstanding and beautiful female mages under the age of 18 can be hired."

Metatron grew increasingly annoyed: "So, do you have a candidate for the new City Flower?"

The city lord sighed, "We're still looking for someone. The requirements for strength aren't that strict. The key is that she's pretty and has an idol-like aura."

Michael said, "It seems that this is inevitable."

Gabriel immediately thought of someone: "Isn't there a little mage in Southern Canyon Village who sails an ice boat? She stopped us from both monster attacks on the village, so she's quite capable, and she's also good-looking. I can hire the village's most beautiful doctor to open a clinic, so Xiaomei can hire her to be the city's most beautiful girl too!"

Sila panicked: "Fuck, Southern Canyon Village is my territory. Are you trying to undermine me?"

Gabriel laughed, "That's exactly what we want! First, we'll poach a village beauty, then a junior mage, and it'll be much easier to infiltrate and control Southern Canyon Village!"

Michael nodded: "Gabriel makes a good point. Anyway, Sila is too busy to handle this matter right now. It's highly likely that the success rate will be very high if we entrust this task to Xiaomei, a top figure with the status of a guardian deity."

Metatron, still exasperated, said, "She's got cream."

Gabriel sighed, "Well then, since the city lord is here to win your support, you can also offer your suggestions, such as reserving a position for Tifa and appointing the second city flower as the new one."

Raphael laughed and said, "The name 'City Flower Number Two' sounds awful. Let's give it a better name: 'City Flower with Dancing Sides'."

"Ok."

Metatron then said to the city lord, "Actually, I also have someone in mind, and I'll personally invite them. But I also request that the terms be amended, otherwise Tifa's fans won't accept it..."

The city lord nodded repeatedly, "As expected of the God of the Throne, but the selection of the city flower may still face challenges from other candidates. Does she have the ability?"

Metatron wasn't entirely sure either: "In any case, the City Flower Contest will definitely boost Bronze City's popularity, right?"

The city lord was quite pleased: "Thank you for your support, Lord God Throne!"

Metatron: "Then I'll set off immediately."

Metatron then teleported to the teleportation array and was immediately transported to Black Iron City.

At this moment, the citizens of Black Iron City exclaimed in astonishment and worship: "It is Lord Bronze Throne!"

Metatron flew to the animal protection event, where Natata War God and his staff enthusiastically shouted, "Greetings, Lord God!"

Metatron waved his hand: "Keep it up!"

So I flew straight out of the city, and Southern Canyon Village was right in front of me. I have to say, impersonating a guardian deity felt really cool; the mobility was amazing, hahaha!
Metatron landed in the village, where the village chief and other villagers, along with the remaining Chinese players from the Royal Club, came forward to greet and watch.

The village chief was apprehensive and confused: "This is Lord Bronze Throne, I am Village Chief Malegobi, what important matter do you have to discuss, Lord?"

Metatron looked around at the villagers: "The Bronze City's beauty has gone missing. I've come to hire a young mage from your village who performed exceptionally well in the village defense battle as the second beauty. The salary is very high. Where is she?"

The villagers erupted in uproar: "The city's most beautiful flower?! Isn't that a position only the strongest and most beautiful mage, chosen from among millions, can hold?"

Metatron explained, "Tifa's position is still there. I'm talking about the second city flower, which is like a backup dancer. Her salary and benefits are the same as the city flower."

The villagers exclaimed in surprise, "I heard that Chenghua earns over 100,000 yuan a month?"

"Tens of thousands? That's for Black Iron City, Silver City spends hundreds of thousands!"

"Hundreds of thousands? Gem City would spend millions!"

The village chief snapped back to reality: "They must be looking for Sherry! Someone, go to the animal farm and find Sherry!" A moment later, Sherry appeared, her face covered in shimmering paint.

Gabriel exclaimed in surprise: "It's her! But her makeup is clearly more beautiful than the one I saw during the last village battle. Mei, ask her."

Sherry stepped forward awkwardly: "Lord Bronze Throne!"

Metatron asked, "Your paint is very beautiful, what is it?"

Sherry said shyly, "It's runic magic, it's prettier!"

The elders were shocked again: "Runic magic?"

Metatron asked in surprise, "You're a rune mage?"

Shirley nodded: "Yes!"

Gabriel exclaimed excitedly, "Ask about cosmetics!"

Metatron then asked, "Is this something that makes you look prettier, something that's never been seen on the market before?"

Shirley wasn't sure: "I don't know."

Metatron asked, "What material is it?"

Sherry: "Four-Colored Stones"

Raphael was astonished: "The four-colored stone is just a low-end version of the five-colored stone. If you use the five-colored stone, it will definitely be an exclusive high-end cosmetic on the market!"

Gabriel exclaimed, "The four-colored stones alone are already top-tier cosmetic materials!"

Metatron confirmed for her: "Miss Shirley, this one development alone meets the criteria for the city's most beautiful woman. Please accept my offer. I can also help your product enter the high-end luxury market and sell like hotcakes!"

The village chief also urged, "Miss Shirley, you must accept the offer! This is about becoming the city's most beautiful woman! Once you become the city's most beautiful woman, come back and help us develop the village. The village will definitely develop even better!"

The villagers immediately cheered, "Miss Shirley, please accept the job!"

Sherry, her eyes glistening with tears of excitement, said, "Lord God, I have always admired the City Flower. Being her backup dancer and singer is my dream. I am willing to accept the offer, but please allow me to return to develop the village."

Sila laughed: "Absolutely! Xiaomei, quickly agree."

Metatron said with satisfaction, "Sure! However, there is a process of accepting challenges before becoming the City Flower. Fortunately, I have modified the rules, and I believe you should be able to handle it with your strength."

Sherry then remembered something: "My Lord, I need to go back and get my staff, but it's quite large."

Metatron was genuinely surprised and excited: "A big size? That's a unique label for idol talent, go get it."

"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty."

Before long, the sound of rushing water came from the entrance of a mine outside the village, and suddenly the ice boat that we had seen last time slid out!
The elders suddenly realized: "So this ice ship is her magic staff!"

Gabriel laughed: "Your unique idol charisma is off the charts! Even if your skills aren't as good as the city's most beautiful girl, it doesn't matter anymore. Hurry up and go back to the city to create some hype!"

Metatron excitedly boarded the ice ship to show off his skills: "Let's go back to Bronze City."

Metatron began to unleash his divine power, the ice ship gliding and teleporting, the Black Iron Walls looming in the distance.

Meanwhile, Metatron also noticed that this so-called ice ship was simply a thick tree trunk wrapped in rounded blocks of ice. The trunk was covered with densely packed, shimmering runes. The magic for creating ice and water was entirely generated by the staff.

Therefore, so-called rune mages don't actually need to rely on their own magic power to operate; the magic power stored in their artifacts is also sufficient.

Metatron suddenly had a brilliant idea: "If we're going to hype things up now, Iron Flame Village is the real focus. Should we send her to Iron Flame Village to meet the other four city beauties?"

Sila retorted irritably, "Do we even have the time?"

Metatron laughed and said, "Yes, there's still a day left. We'll hold the second city flower welcome event in Bronze City first, and then set off at dawn tomorrow, going upstream along the Blackwater River next to Iron City. It's much less strenuous than gliding on land."

Gabriel laughed: "I didn't expect Metatron to have such an idol management mindset."

Sila laughed and said, "You're quite enthusiastic. Don't you miss Tifa anymore?"

Metatron was suddenly taken aback. It seemed he really wasn't so heartbroken without Tifa? Nonono!!
Metatron was annoyed: "How could that be! Tifa's backup dancers have to be top-notch."

……

Da Chun's phone rang again; it was Zhou Qing.

"Brother Chun, something's happened in Southern Canyon Village. The Bronze Guardian himself came to the village to invite that mage Sherry to become the city flower of Bronze City. This is a screen recording from the team members who stayed behind..."

Damn it! ?
Da Chun immediately started screen recording. Of course, this wasn't some Bronze Guardian God; it was an imposter, Metatron!
Therefore, after Tifa's position becomes vacant, a new person will fill the vacancy, and this new person happens to be Sherry, who has been targeted by the Ten Elders!
Da Chun was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. Since his imprisonment, he'd only occasionally returned to see Shirley in his spirit form. His initial dream of training her to become a great mage had also become uncertain, leaving him with no choice but to let her learn as much as she could on her own…

But to everyone's surprise, she's now the city's most beautiful girl! It was Ten Lao who fulfilled her wish!

Is this considered undermining me? But Shirley has clearly stated that she wants to come back and develop the village, so Lao Liu should be fine...

Da Chun could only reply: "It's a good thing. She's a city flower that we personally cultivated in the China region."

Zhou Qing laughed and said, "Players rarely have the chance to see her, so personally training her is probably out of the question. By the way, Feng Xingcuo was frightened by this, should we give up exploring the sewers and go back to the village?"

Da Chun broke out in a cold sweat: "Honestly, you're all a professional team, you don't need to ask me about things like going back to the village, do you?"

Zhou Qing laughed and said, "When you encounter a major problem, pray to the gods first."

Da Chun was both amused and exasperated: "Am I a god?"

"What do you say?"

Da Chun laughed and said, "Then God said, you decide what to do."

"Alright then. If Feng Xing makes a mistake, he can continue to work in the sewers."

Da Chun asked in surprise, "Feng Xingcuo hasn't found anything in the sewers yet?"

Zhou Qingyi's smile vanished: "To be honest, Fengxing suspects they've encountered a maze. There are a few places where it feels like they're going in circles, but they can't break free!"

Holy crap! The sewers of Iron City are surprisingly sophisticated?

Da Chun advised, "If you believe in the skill level of professional players, then it means you've already made some discoveries. Keep at it!"

"understood."

The only way to break this deadlock is to turn to Biliana.

Da Chun switched to his main account and was about to contact Ai Lian when the Magic Mirror messaged him first. Needless to say!

Ellen: "Darling, Southern Canyon Village... Sherry became the city's most beautiful girl..."

Da Chun laughed and said, "That's a good thing. I've always thought she was the Black Iron City Flower who was rejected before. She has the ability, right?"

Eileen sighed, "I wonder if we'll get a share of the profits if her cosmetics sell like hotcakes!"

Uh, is this what you're concerned about?

Da Chun, let's get down to business: "Has Biliana had enough sleep? Let her go to the sewers again..."
