[320] The Senate Triumvirate
The crow would never have imagined that he had only been in the Exorcist Organization for more than a month before he would be personally summoned by the three giants of the Senate.
It was pitch black all around, except for three high platforms that stood in the air, and the crows who had to look up at the three chiefs were as small as prisoners about to be tried.
(Here's ...... Subspace? I appeared here as soon as I passed through the portal, and I always felt that the air, gravity, and the outside world were subtly different...... )
"Raven, as Nank's guide, how much do you think you know about him?
An old but sonorous voice sounded in the space, and it was the white-bearded old man sitting on the high platform in the middle who spoke.
Named Qin Qi, nicknamed "Old Man", cultivating his true qi with a human body, he has lived to a record of more than 300 years old, although some gossip claims that Qin Qi used witchcraft to kill people and continue his life, but it does not affect Qin Qi's prestige as the first seat of the Senate in the exorcist organization.
He has lived from the Ming Dynasty in China to the present, his skin is shriveled, wrinkles are piled up, his face is covered with age spots, the top of his head is slightly bald, and the rest of his long hair hangs down on his shoulders, frost white as snow, plus a loose black robe embroidered with an armillary star chart, which is very much like the villain boss in a martial arts TV series.
"What do I know about Nanke......" The crow swallowed under Qin Qi's spiritual power before continuing, "My knowledge of Nanke is really limited, I can only be sure that he is not a bad person in nature. ”
"Not a bad guy?"
The middle-aged man on the high platform on the left frowned, revealing half of his body from the darkness.
Tony. Spencon's first impression is of a business tycoon, with a slightly chubby stature, a businessman's professional smile on his face, and a fierce and domineering face that is not deliberately hidden. Compared to a wide nose, mouth, and thick eyebrows. Spencon's eyes are small. But his eyes are sharp, as if he can easily see through the desires of others and manipulate them. Nicknamed "The Demon Sucker", he wears a snow-white high-end suit, a bright red designer tie, the buttons on the suit are all made of white gold, and he has a freshly extinguished Cuban cigar in his left hand.
The most powerful of the four families is the Spencon family, which originated in South America. Spencon as the current head of the house. In fact, he is over 100 years old, but he only looks like a middle-aged man in his 40s.
"Spencon, get it straight."
Qin Qi glanced at Spencon with a little dissatisfaction, he had forced Spencon to extinguish his cigar just now.
"I mean...... "Spencon placed his cigar on the raised table, "Nank killed a normal man against the purpose of the organization, and a 15-year-old boy before he officially joined the organization...... Shouldn't we give him a harsher punishment? ”
Without warning, a cry suddenly sounded on the high platform on the right, and a noble lady in a navy blue evening dress took out a handkerchief to hide her face and wept. Elsa. Coming from the Elsa family, one of the four major families, her age is a secret. No one dared to ask.
It's not that Elsa will send everyone who dares to ask her age to the west, but although Elsa has a lot of life experience, she is particularly easy to cry because of all kinds of trivial things, and you will always be embarrassed if such a noble lady tears ripples because you ask her age.
"Woooooooooo......oo At only 15 years old, the flowers of life have withered before they bloom, is there anything sadder than this? ”
"That's right," Spencon chimed in, "Our purpose as exorcists is to protect ordinary people from demons and monsters, and Nanker killed a fifteen-year-old boy for the sake of a demon god, and I think he should be sentenced to prison at the least......"
"Incarceration?" Elsa paused, and her cries echoed through the vast, dark space.
"Woooooooooo......oo Nanke is only 17 years old, and what could be sadder than putting a 17-year-old boy in prison and depriving him of freedom and sunshine? ”
Spencon's nose was crooked, and he tapped it on the platform with his thick fingers, and snorted, "Elsa, according to your opinion, what do you want to do with Nanke?" ”
"I don't know," Elsa shook her head unassertively, "just hope there won't be more sadness in the disposition of him......"
"I think Nank did a good job."
Qin Qi twisted his white beard lightly, and his sudden words made Spencon and Elsa stunned.
"What does it mean to kill well?" Spencon was puzzled, "Mr. Qin, as the head of the Senate, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to make such remarks, right?" ”
"Mr. Qin," Elsa said as she sobbed, "Killing can only bring sorrow, please don't say such ruthless words again." ”
Qin Qi adjusted his sitting posture, and his body was slightly tilted on the high platform, as if to indicate that what he was going to say next did not represent the official opinion of the senior management of the exorcist.
"Nank was killing people when the other party was pointing a pistol at his head, according to me, it was completely justified defense! Although I don't think it's worth it for Nanke to kill a woman, it's not necessary for him to be punished for it. ”
"It's not a woman, it's a female demon god." Spencon corrected maliciously beside him.
"Alas, what a sad thing it is that humans and demon gods cannot be combined because of worldly prejudices!"
Elsa began to cry again, she really deserved the nickname "Tear Girl".
"Hmph, I don't care if Nanker likes people, dogs, or demon gods." Qin Qi knocked on the high platform to signal the scene to be silent, "The only thing I care about is, is he strong enough?" ”
The white-bearded old man's gaze looked down at the crow, and although the three giants of the Senate did not deliberately release their spiritual power at all, the crow still felt as if he was in the deep sea, and fear and cold were invading from all directions.
"More than the average five-star ability." The crow's words are very clever, neither is it a lie, nor does it reveal that Nanke has actually stepped into the realm of the six stars, and if he is continued to be questioned, he can also use "his own knowledge" to throw the black pot out.
"I'm afraid that a five-star ability can't kill the vampire Anderson, right?" Qin Qi looked at Spencon when he said this, as the client who hired Anderson, Spencon made an innocent gesture very perfectly, and didn't seem to understand what Qin Qi meant by looking at him.
"Nanker triggered the [Sin Pattern Chain] because of his anger," the crow explained, "According to the analysis of the technicians, the Wrath Sin Pattern once allowed Nank to reach the realm of flying in the sky for an eight-star ability in a very short period of time, and during the rest of this battle, his spiritual power was basically maintained at the strength of a seven-star ability. ”
"It's good, it's terrible!" Qin Qi smiled all over his face, and the folds on his face were squeezed together, "What the organization lacks most now is the talent who can really fight, it is said that the tiger father has no dog, and when Nanke finishes the trial task, give him the position of Dongshan City Inspector as an encouragement!" ”
"Wait!" Spencon stopped, "Nanke doesn't have any merit, so what qualifications do you have to accept this official position?" And we have never set up a city-level inspector......"
"The rules are set by people," Qin Qi sat up slightly, "Anyway, Nanke's main activity area is also Dongshan City, what's wrong with giving him an official position related to his father as encouragement?" Have you forgotten that he exists as a [Sin Tattoo Equalizer]? The Inquisitor was originally an official position to supervise the ability to commit crimes, which did not conflict with Nanke's duty to protect the Doomsday Seal, and even overlapped...... The legal age of marriage in the world of the capable is 16 years old, since Nanke is already enough to control a woman, why do you think that he can't control a small Dongshan City inspector? ”
Qin Qi was born in the Ming Dynasty of China, although he is not so old-fashioned, but there is a kind of idea of male superiority and inferiority of women in his bones.
Hearing that Nank might be awarded the position of Inspector of Dongshan City, Crow was surprised and delighted, surprised that the 17-year-old boy had such a smooth career after entering the Exorcist Organization, and was happy that he had always had a good relationship with Nanke as a guide, and maybe he would be able to get Nanke's shadow in the near future.
"Old man!" In order to accentuate his tone, Spencon called Qin Qi's nickname loudly, "Nanke's short attainment of eight stars by relying on the [Sin Pattern Chain] is just an accident, he is not the kind of peerless genius you have always favored!" Although the position of Inspector of Dongshan City is not very powerful, it is more like a title, but it cannot be arbitrarily awarded to Nanke! ”
"I've decided, I'll do it." Qin Qi was very capricious at his age, he twisted his white beard as if he could use it to predict the future, and after a pause, he said: "Unless Nanke will mess up the trial task, he will be the inspector of Dongshan City!" ”
"Then I wish him all the best." Spencon's gaze turned from blazing to gloomy, and he clasped his fingers together with a plan in his heart...... (To be continued......)
