For the general public, the Bounty Hunter Association is the organization they are more aware of - because almost the vast majority of powerful people have joined the Bounty Hunter Association.
The influence of the bounty hunter profession and the bounty hunter association in New Testament City can be seen from one name: "Julyflower Hunters Association".
That’s right, one of the three branches of government in New Testament City, the de facto rule-making body, has a name related to bounty hunters.
This name was given to record the first group of people who came to Canglong City to settle and build it. The vehicle they were riding was called "July Flower".
In order to survive in the New Testament city, one must become a hunter in the wilderness. "Hunter" is a respectful title.
It was not until later, when money gradually became very important, that the name "bounty hunter" came into being, and the meaning of the name "hunter" was also very different from what it originally meant.
The original meaning of "Julyflower Hunters Meeting" was a meeting of the "hunters" who came here on the "Julyflower" vehicle to discuss major events that affect all personnel.
The name has been retained to this day.
After Gu Ran briefly recounted the history of bounty hunters, Helis also felt a little emotional. However, when he heard that Gu Ran still insisted on abolishing the Bounty Hunter Association, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.
"Master Gu Ran, do we really want to completely abolish the Bounty Hunter Association? The Bounty Hunter Association has existed for thousands of years. Wouldn't it be too... sudden? If the Bounty Hunter Association is abolished, what will happen to all those bounty hunters?"
When Helis heard Gu Ran talking about the history of bounty hunters, he almost thought he was going to change his mind, but he didn't expect the sudden turn at the end, which almost sprained his waist.
Gu Ran: "The Bounty Hunter Association has long deviated from its original purpose and is no longer suitable for this era. It will only hinder the development of New Covenant City."
As he spoke, Gu Ran glanced at Hailis and said, "Although the development of New Covenant City has little to do with me, the Bounty Hunter Association has provoked me time and time again. You can think that the Bounty Hunter Association has a grudge against me, and I don't want it to continue to exist in this world.
"If any bounty hunter is dissatisfied, I welcome him/her to challenge me at any time. As long as he/she can defeat me, the Bounty Hunter Association does not need to be cancelled."
Feeling Gu Ran's determination, Helis was speechless.
This is a matter that depends on strength. There is no bounty hunter in the Bounty Hunter Association who can beat him, so there is nothing to do but to cancel it.
"Okay... Since Lord Gu Ran is so determined, then... I will follow your orders." Helis was still very humble, even making Gu Ran feel that he was too humble and not like a strong man at all.
However, in many cases, the one who possesses this kind of versatile ability is the most suitable leader.
"Lord Gu Ran, please wait for a moment. I will draft a first draft of the peace treaty and then let you take a look at it." Helis bowed slightly, then slowly stepped back, walked into the meeting room and picked up a pen.
Gu Ran nodded, and after Helis took the "peace treaty" with the seal of the New Testament City's Executive Office and the signature of Helis' name, he opened a space portal in front of Helis.
Helis was slightly surprised, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly realized.
... ...
Outside the light screen.
"Gu Ran actually conquered a main city, and New Covenant City surrendered to him?" Many people found it incredible. "By the way, do we have any strong men from New Covenant City? And the strong men from Canglong City, do you know the details? Gu Ran... ... even after losing his spatial ability and martial arts, he still had such terrifying strength?"
"Yes, that's right. Back then, Gu Ran... was indeed that powerful. But so many years have passed. If I hadn't seen the scene displayed on the light screen, I would have forgotten it." A strong man from New Covenant City said with emotion in his eyes, "At that time, my strength was not that high. I was just an ordinary bounty hunter. I didn't see Gu... President's battle with my own eyes, and I only heard about the battle that took place at that time.
"I never thought that the President could be so powerful just by relying on his physical strength and telekinesis. He is truly gifted and amazing. Since then, it took a long time for New Covenant City to slowly recover."
Originally, he wanted to call him "Gu Ran" directly, but when he thought of Gu Ran's powerful strength, he somehow changed his mind to "General Manager".
At this time, another person continued his words and said, "I actually witnessed Gu Ran killing the masters of various financial groups with my own eyes. I even followed him all the way, wanting to see what his final outcome would be. Perhaps it has been a long time, and I have forgotten a little bit before. However, what I never expected was that the man would become the president of the Human Alliance many years later, and he would make the position of president, which was previously a mere formality, reach an unprecedented level."
"Not only has there been no such thing before, I don't think there will be any like it after." Someone said with emotion, "The reason why we want to overthrow Gu Ran is because he is too oppressive and cruel. After this, we must limit the power of the president, and it would be best if we could return to the power we had at the beginning."
The amount of power one has at the beginning is... no power.
Everyone knows this.
But can the position of president really return to the level of power it had at the beginning
Many people glanced at Lin Fan.
Although Lin Fan showed that he had no interest in the position of chief executive, they knew that Lin Fan had always been interested in it.
On the surface, those who cheer for Lin Fan seem to have nothing to do with Lin Fan, but in fact, everyone knows it, but they just don't say it out loud.
Of course, even if someone really succeeded to the position of chief minister, it would be impossible to achieve the power that Gu Ran had when he was in power.
Even Lin Fan, the one who suppressed Gu Ran.
Because everyone has a tacit understanding with each other - to resist the orders of the President together, openly or covertly, so that the position of the President no longer has the authority it once had.
As long as we don't openly oppose you, what can you do to us
Are you going to kill us again
The precedent of Gu Ran causing a crusade from almost the entire human alliance is not far away.
Aren't you afraid of provoking another coalition attack
Many of the strong men present were smart people, and they understood this principle as soon as they thought about it, so they usually didn't care about Lin Fan's showmanship.
Anyway, it would be useless even if the presidency was taken away.
Only when Gu Ran sits on the position of chief ruler can he play the role that the entire human alliance dares to obey.
Because Gu Ran gained his power through constant fighting.
There is no strong person in the entire human alliance who does not feel wary and afraid of Gu Ran.
Oh, no, there is a person who is not afraid of Gu Ran. He even gathers the strong men of the Human Alliance to attack Gu Ran and replace him.
Lin Fan!
Some people looked at Lin Fan, whose face had no expression, and thought that he was truly courageous. Even now, each of them was still somewhat surprised—
It actually worked!
They actually succeeded in suppressing Gu Ran, and soon they were able to kill Gu Ran completely, causing him to fall.

Gu Ran walked out of the space portal, looked at where he was, and then hurried back towards Lanxin University.
What Gu Ran didn't expect was that Canglong City was actually broadcasting relevant news about New Covenant City at the same time.
"New Covenant City is ruthless and has detained and killed our people, and wantonly looted our property. The temporary special committee is in an emergency meeting to discuss measures to counter New Covenant City. Please do not go to New Covenant City for the time being."
"According to the news from the front, Special Envoy Gu Ran appointed by the Temporary Special Committee rescued millions of our imprisoned people... Special Envoy Gu Ran killed three S-level bounty hunters. That's amazing! Special Envoy Gu Ran is a hero of our Canglong City!"
"I'm urgently inserting a message. In response to the brutal and brutal behavior of New Covenant City, Special Envoy Gu Ran launched a revenge operation. The relevant members of the July Flower Hunters Club who pushed for the decision... were all killed by Special Envoy Gu Ran..."
When broadcasting the last message, even the announcer himself seemed a little unconvinced, and his words began to hesitate and pause.
Due to the development of Star Stone Technology, although there is still some lag in the flow of information between the two main cities, if one party exerts subjective initiative and makes every effort to spread the information, the flow will still be very fast, and some urgent related information can be quickly transmitted back through the remote communicator.
"The anti-Canglong City power group headed by the Mellon family was completely destroyed by Special Envoy Gu Ran. All the members of the July Flower Hunters Club involved in the incident were killed. New Covenant City sent a peace treaty to Canglong City... requesting peace. The peace treaty was brought back by Special Envoy Gu Ran. New Covenant City... surrendered? Surrendered?"
The announcer even thought he had read it wrong and repeated it subconsciously.
Wasn't the temporary special committee still discussing how to launch a retaliatory action of the same level against New Covenant City? Why did New Covenant City suddenly surrender? Although the relationship between the two main cities was full of gunpowder, the war had not yet begun.
The enemy surrendered before we even had a chance to start the war
Not only did the radio announcer feel confused, but even the slum residents who were listening to the news wondered if the announcer had made a mistake.
But they waited for a while, but instead of the announcer apologizing or admitting the wrong news, they heard the announcer's uncontrollable excitement.
"New Covenant City's General Governor Helis Johnson has sent a formal official communication to Canglong City. That's right, New Covenant City has surrendered! Because Special Envoy Gu Ran scared them, hahahaha!"
The final joy was almost overflowing.
The entire Canglong City was plunged into great joy.
There had been internal strife among the top leaders and invasion by the demon army. Although there were no casualties among civilians, the impact on the morale of the people was still very large.
Everyone is confused about the future and feels an indescribable worry.
Although Xue Yingsong, as the president of Lanxin University, has always had a high prestige in Canglong City, he is a complete political novice. Many people are still worried about him being the actual "ruler" during the transition period.
Moreover, although the purge of the military and administrative departments was carried out in secret without much fanfare, many people still learned of the news.
Although everyone can understand that a major purge was carried out after the coup, this was also conducive to purging the team and would have more benefits for future development.
However, at the beginning of the Great Purge, the decline in Canglong City's overall strength was real.
This is the worry that many people have about being enemies with the New Testament City.
If it weren't for the pride of the people of Canglong City supporting them, and if it weren't for the fact that New Covenant City was too arrogant and had to fight, there would definitely be many doves in Canglong City calling for avoiding war.
It’s not that they don’t love Canglong City, but they think their ideas are best for Canglong City.
However, this sudden news caught both the pro-war and anti-war factions off guard.
They have not yet discussed clearly how Canglong City should deal with New Covenant City, and they have not yet mobilized Canglong City’s resources.
Is everything over
it's over
Canglong City won
New Testament City surrendered
Everyone was confused when they first heard the news, and then they were even more confused when they heard that it was Gu Ran who forced the New Covenant City to surrender alone.
One person forced a main city to surrender
Moreover, this main city is not a small or weak city. The overall strength of New Covenant City has always been only slightly weaker than that of Canglong City.
This kind of thing is unheard of, and most people dare not even think about it.
Suddenly, the name "Gu Ran" became the topic of conversation among all the people in Canglong City.
