The plan to absorb the hidden inheritance, as Lin An thought, did not encounter any obstacles.

If the pentagram had not been promoted, the emperor might have been slightly jealous of Lin An's appeal to the hidden inheritance, but under the premise that the pentagram was in charge, the emperor had a reassurance, so the entire empire under his control was like a clockwork machine, and every qiē had to make way for war mobilization.

The next day, the people of the hermit lineage went to the Earl's Court to ask to see Lin An.

Lin An had already received the emperor's permission, so he directly introduced them to Master Don Quixote and the old sword master.

After the first trial of the two masters, the second trial of the emperor, the third trial of the pentagram, and the bargaining between the two sides, but still maintaining a reserved shelf, the hidden inheritance is a foregone conclusion.

As Lin An expected, both the emperor and the hermit lineage were interested in joining the royal secret magic group, rather than the court mage group that was more intimate with the royal family.

It has to do with the level of trust between the two parties.

Even with Lin An's endorsement, trust cannot be built overnight.

At present, the relationship between royalty and hermit is more like that of an employer and an employee.

Of course, the royal family will not treat the mages who come to serve them badly, and there are precedents and standard specifications for all treatments:

The status of the elders of the Royal Esoteric Order is equivalent to that of a duke, and they can obtain the control of the Amber Tower and the Emerald Tower, as well as part of the transfer rights of the Royal Esoteric Order's inner treasury, even if they stay in the Royal Esoteric Order residence and do nothing, the royal family will spend 300,000 gold rego or equivalent resources for each of them every year;

The Elders serve the royal family free of charge for two months each year, beyond which the royal family will have to pay a price depending on the difficulty and length of time they need to be dispatched.

But this is only the most basic, more generous treatment, and the real recognition and centripetal force of the hidden inheritance to the royal family, and it will take time for both parties to brew.

Lin An just hopes that the hidden inheritance will be born, not that they will lower their prices, so she does not pay attention to some off-the-table negotiations between the hidden inheritance and the royal family.

After all, compared to the previous elders, the archmages of the hidden inheritance have a great family and a deep heritage, and it is more difficult to be driven, and if it were not for Lin An's sake, it would be basically impossible for the royal family to make a group of leaders of the hidden inheritance agree to be born at such a price.

If the masters of the hidden inheritance are willing to do things, Merlin will inevitably show sincerity.

This process takes about four days, and the efficiency of the whole process is amazing, based on the important process and the time consumed.

The only thing that is difficult to decide is the attribution of the position of chief elder of the elders.

Excluding the roof of the Black Dragon, the remaining three major inheritances are indistinguishable in terms of strength, such as Master Biyulai, Master Grant and Master Brooke, and their influence in the hidden inheritance is also indistinguishable.

"It's easy, didn't they come here on the recommendation of Master Lin? It's up to her to take care of it! ”

Master Don Quixote rightly mentioned, "Although there is no precedent, there is no provision that the Grand Mage of the Court cannot concurrently serve as the Chief Elder of the Secret Law Order. ”

Since Lin An has been promoted to archmage, now even the unruly Master Don Quixote no longer calls Lin An a little girl, and it is too rusty to call him a master, so Master Don Quixote and the old sword saint and others are the same as the emperor, and they call Lin An Master Lin.

This Jian yì is in the hands of Master Biyulai and others.

They are fighting for the position of chief elder, and all kinds of explicit hints are not just to let Lin An lead them in the name of righteousness?

The true origin of the hidden inheritance, except for old guys like the Deep Blue Law God, everyone else knows a little about it.

Even Gucci and other pentagram stars think that the hidden inheritance is closely related to the legend behind Lin An, but the relationship between Lin An's "teachers" and the Tower of Babel.

If the royal family knew the deeper insider, then they would never continue to exist in seclusion.

No royal family would allow an organization that could manipulate their fate behind the scenes to survive, even if the Wardens had established a hidden legacy to prop up the Merlin Empire.

And because of the oath, Lin An's life and death are related to the entire hidden inheritance, which can be said to be the biggest weakness of the hidden inheritance.

If she dies, the hermit inheritance will also be buried with her.

Even if the Hidden Inheritance has its own thoughts, it is completely consistent on issues related to their own life and death, and if they are killed, no one will expose Lin An's true relationship with them.

Lin An was slightly surprised when he learned that he was going to "concurrently" serve as the chief elder of the Royal Secret Law Order, but he was not surprised.

In order to prevent the royal family and the hermit inheritance from being influenced by her, Lin An completely stayed out of the whole process of coordination between the two sides, but there was Master Biyulai, a traitor, and the general entrance and direction of the city were within her knowledge.

It is not difficult to speculate on the purpose of the hermit inheritance to ask her to be the chief elder, but it makes Lin An a little crying and laughing.

Who can believe that Lin An can't avoid this burden that has been planted on his head!

As a witness, Lin An watched the process of signing the contract between the ten archmages and the royal family.

This contract is certainly not a soul contract, but a law contract, that is, a contract endorsed by a third party.

This third person refers to some powerful beings above the law, such as gods, such as demons, such as the law of the origin of the plane, and their common feature is that they are all law-based beings.

Therefore, the devil's contract is the most typical type of law contract.

The contract that Lin An made when he responded to Kronos's call was not only a soul contract sworn by his soul, but also a law contract witnessed by the origin of the plane, and the two were one;

Many of the contract scrolls that the Warden gave to Lin An, such as the contracts signed with Salen and Sidney, were legal contracts endorsed by the true names of demigod fellows, and in the Krell plane, the reliability was second only to that of the plane's origin witness.

There are no locally-born gods in the Crell plane, and the royal family will not use the devil's contract to sign, so naturally they can only choose the law contract witnessed by the origin of the plane.

One of the characteristics of the legal contract witnessed by the plane origin is that the contract can only be an equal contract, not an unequal contract that favors either party.

To put it simply, both parties to the contract must stipulate the corresponding scope of obligations and accept the constraints of the law of origin of the plane, and the content of the terms must be equal and balanced.

It is precisely because of this that Kronos lived in Lin An's body at the beginning, but he couldn't do any harm to her, let alone occupy the magpie's nest and take Lin An's body.

Under the restrictions of the contract, Kronos can only guide Lin An to act according to his intentions at most, so if Lin An encounters an accident because of this, it is due to Lin An's own active behavior, and it cannot be counted within the limits of the Kronos contract.

It can be seen that even a binding plane contract or soul contract does not mean that it is absolutely reliable.

But all contracts will always have loopholes, and you can't find them if you just look at them.

As a result, the mages of the Ancient Magic Dynasty believed in contracts, but remained skeptical of them, and did not advocate relying too much on their binding force.

The Elder Contracts of the Royal Esoteric Order have been in use for a long time, and the various terms and conditions have matured for thousands of years.

This is not to say that the Elder Contract does not have loopholes, on the contrary, it is not small, otherwise Master Rice would not be able to unite the former Elders so easily.

The reason why such a loose contract has been used is because, in the final analysis, the elders of the Arcane Order and the royal family are in a cooperative relationship, relatively equal.

As royal worshippers, the archmages would not be foolish to sign the terms of the contract if it was too strict and unfavorable, after all, the signing of an equal contract is based on the equality of both parties.

The existence of this contract is similar to that of a legal contract, but of course, it is more fair and coercive than that of law enforcement agencies.

After completing the signing of the contract and appointing Lin An as the chief elder, the whole thing was settled, and two-thirds of the members of the hidden inheritance officially joined the Royal Secret Law Order.

Due to the unconventionality of the archmage, such matters are usually carried out only by circumstantial witnesses and simple ceremonies into the city, and there are no balls to celebrate.

The emperor will issue an edict to publicize this matter, which can be regarded as a great boost to morale after the all-out war mobilization of the demon disaster is issued.

Lin An, who had just become the chief elder, returned to the Royal Secret Law Order with the new members of the Elder Body.

As the actual controller of the Royal Secret Law Order, the elders have their own disciples to handle the details of personnel handover and familiarity with specific matters, so they don't have to do everything themselves.

The only thing that needed to be handed over by them in person was the control of the two main towers of the Royal Esoteric Order.

"Cassandra. Miracle, this is the tower of the Amber Tower, Cassandra, who came out to meet with a few elders. ”

The resinous inner wall of the Amber Tower was surging, and a huge female face appeared on the surface of the wall, looking down at Lin An and the others from above, and a soft female voice said:

"Welcome to the elders, I'm Cassandra. Miracle, if you need help in the future, please feel free to ask. ”

"The Tower of Amber actually has a tower spirit!" Master Beyolai shrieked, "You are indeed a miracle. ”

"Thank you for the compliment." Cassandra replied flatly.

Lin An knew that the hermit lineages were not unaware of Taling's existence, but it was only the first time they had seen Cassandra, so they were surprised and surprised.

"It's a pity that Cassandra's appearance is very accidental, and of the two main towers of the Arcane Order, only the Tower of Amber gave birth to the tower spirit."

Briefly introducing Cassandra, Lin An did not give the archmages time to study:

"Cassandra, I think you've learned that I've been authorized by permission."

"Yes, from the time you and the Archmages entered the Tower of Amber, you have obtained the control authority of the Tower of Amber and completed the certification."

It's really convenient to have Taling.

"Very well, then please prepare a conference room for me, I want to have a meeting with the elders, and I don't want anyone to disturb me in the meantime, can you?"

"Of course."

The archmages looked at each other, not knowing what the new master was going to do.
