Volume 15 The War of Kings!Chapter 18 The Struggle
"Wait a minute, do you want to continue the previous one before moving on to the next one, and since Brother Angus Gale is fine, can you please allow Boris Knight's recommendation for succession to pass?" Morgo Watts interrupted President Sengerorton with a sudden remark. γFengyun Reading Network.γ
"Oh, yes, that's ......," Sengerodon picked up the recommendation on the table with some hastiness, and he looked at it, as if he couldn't grasp the attention, so he turned his gaze to the vice-president of the list.
Soliment closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened his eyes, he slowly turned his head, glanced at Domoor, and asked expressionlessly, "Do you have any other reasons for objecting?"
Domor and Naorather looked at each other, and then at the Grand Knight Frederick, but no one spoke.
Now the Knight Alliance and the Mage Council only have four Monk Chiefs combined, which is the same number as the other party, and if they oppose it, there is still one seat missing, so they simply keep silent.
Since there is no objection, let the elders make a decision. Listed Mente turned to Sengeroton.
Sengerodon breathed a sigh of relief, he calmed his breath and said loudly: "Please come up with Knight Boris." β
Boris inhaled hard, his chest heaving as he gripped the sword at his waist tightly, rose from his seat as a high-ranking member of the Monks' Order and walked up the steps above.
"Knight Boris, please stand in the middle. Longville stepped down from the stage and led Boris to the middle of the circular staircase where the Friar was.
When Boris stood firmly, President Sengeroden stood up, he picked up the recommendation in his hand, and said in a loud voice:
"Papal Templar Boris, recommended by the Friars Morgowards, Dean Reims, Friars Landiston, Angus Gale, procedurally just and legitimate, and without any opposition from the Friars, I declare that the recommendation of the Knight Boris to succeed the Friars has passed, and he has officially become the Friars' Friars, and his authority will be upheld by the Monks' Order, and I hope that his name will always be inscribed on the Pillar of Glory, and below is the oath, please follow me to recite it......"
When the rather lengthy oath of Sengerorton and Boris was finished, the horn symbolizing glory suddenly sounded, and the audience suddenly resounded like a tidal wave of cheers.
In any case, the fact that the ordinary members had witnessed the succession of a chief monk had already made them extremely excited, and their hearts were even more envious to fantasize about when they would be able to stand there.
Longville smiled and bowed, and gestured in one direction with his hand, "Brother Boris, there is your seat." β
Brother Boris
Hearing others say this name to himself, Boris's expression couldn't help but be in a trance, at this moment, he seemed to be in a dream, he didn't expect how much effort he had put in, and finally waited for today
He took a deep breath, then strode towards his seat and sat down slowly.
I, Tagil Boris, have finally become a true chief friar today
The hard work has finally paid off
He only now feels that everything he has done before has been worth it
Of course, he won't forget who got him in this position.
He silently reminded himself that then, it was time for him to reciprocate.
Domoore's face became even more ugly.
Looking up, the seats of the Holy See suddenly changed from three to four, and the number of the opposing side has completely overwhelmed its own side, and it is not as contradictory as its own side. This means that when deciding on the agenda next, your side will face a greater dilemma.
Domoore's heart was suddenly filled with gloom at this moment, and his eyes full of coldness kept sweeping over the faces of Luo Lan and several monks in the Holy See.
He still couldn't figure out why the sheepskin had become blank, and how the other party had done it.
Yes, that was indeed Luo Lan's tricks
It's just that this is not a profound skill, but the use of the means of the king's strong man, using dark energy to forcibly erase the traces of pen and ink written in it.
Regarding the fact that Angus Gale and the Council of the Dead had a private trade that might be used by the other party, Luo Lan did not think about it in advance, and even he knew that this was Angus Gale's death hole.
Once this matter is exposed, then the Holy See will also follow Angus Gale into passivity.
Therefore, he had long been on guard against the opponent's hand, and he had indeed prepared a set of methods beforehand, ready to fight back at any time.
But when he got the parchment, he was surprised to find that the entire letter was written in magic potions.
As for why this is the case, he used to be a disguised thief and knows the reason very well, magic potions are not easy to tamper with, and once changed, the magic rules that were originally left in them will be destroyed automatically if they are broken, so many people choose to use it for the sake of protecting secrets.
Luo Lan himself is proficient in tampering with other people's letters, and he can do it without even the original owner of the letter seeing any flaws, but this requires the preparation of tools in advance, and it takes a certain amount of time, and it is not possible to succeed in a moment, but there is no way to write letters written by magic potions.
But that was only in the past.
Now he is a king-level powerhouse, a person who has seen the truth, and his understanding of the rules is not at all what ordinary people can imagine.
If the other party used ordinary ink, then he would have no choice but to do it in full view of everyone at the moment, but the other party just used magic potions, and it was almost no difficulty for him to simply destroy this elemental condensation, and even easily move his fingers.
After only a moment's thought, he decided to abandon his original plan, and without hesitation, he began to erase the magic handwriting from the entire parchment scroll.
This is true of the first parchment, and the same is true of the second, this is the great power of the king's power, and those who have not reached this level will not understand how they do it at all.
Luo Lan knows very well that if they are entangled in the issue of Angus Gale today, then they will not be able to continue the next topic, then the matter of Boris Knight succeeding the chief monk is also far away, and when the Holy See can come up with enough convincing evidence, who knows what the situation will be like at that time, and what will happen to the Mage Society and the Knight Alliance?
So he chose the most direct and simple way.
Spoiler
He avoided the other party's spearhead and did not take the move, so that the other party was powerless at all
Sure enough, his choice was extremely correct, and when Domol couldn't figure out what was going on, and couldn't come up with new evidence for a while, he could only remain silent, watching Boris succeed as the chief monk, but there was nothing he could do.
"Next topic. At this point, Sengerodon could finally say this boldly without fear of any problems or obstacles.
He picked up another letter of recommendation and said, "The four chief monks have jointly elected the shield knight Callerod to succeed the vacant seat of the chief monk, and the recommenders are Brother Frederick, Brother Mayvis, Brother Domor, and Brother Naoratha, may I ask you, is there any opposition from the chief monk?"
The members of the Friars below, who originally belonged to the Knights' Society, looked nervously at the Friars at this seat of the Holy See.
With the addition of Angus Gale and Boris, the Holy See now has a total of five seats, and if they oppose it together, then there is a high probability that this successor will be suppressed
The reason why it is said that it is very probable, but not absolute, is that the opponents must come up with sufficient reasons, and cannot simply tilt against each other.
But this problem is where Callelord's flaw lies.
Since he himself has not made any meritorious achievements, and even his rank has only reached the minimum requirement of level 12, he only has some reputation in the Knight Alliance, which is far from being comparable to other monk chiefs, and even Boris, at least Boris was born as a Templar Knight, and his status is high enough, and he has made enough meritorious deeds, so the other party has no way to oppose it from this aspect.
But if the Holy See used the reason of merit to oppose Calelrod's succession, the Knights League could not find any rebuttal.
Callelord is actually only a temporary candidate, and the Knight Alliance originally decided that the successor was the Grand Knight of Uther, so he was specially sent to the temple to obtain meritorious service, so that he could rightfully succeed the seat of the chief monk in the future, but he was killed by Ibusel, so once Callelord was suppressed, they really couldn't find any suitable candidates for a while.
"Excuse me, is there any opposition from the monk?" Sengerodon asked again, his gaze turned to the side of the Holy See, he had seen the scene just now, he did not believe that the Holy See would let go of this opportunity to fight back so easily.
But he guessed wrong.
The Friars have no objection.
Everyone sat on the stage and did not make a sound.
Pass
Domoore's spirits perked up, and he almost jumped up as he had been leaning back in his chair.
Five seats
This means that the number of mages and knights combined is the same as that of the Holy See, so they will at least not fall behind in the next confrontation
But at the same time, he couldn't help but secretly worry, because since the Knight Alliance was so easy to pass, when it was their turn to be a mage, would the Holy See let them go so easily?
Also, he wondered why they let the Knights go so easily, and what was the reason for that?
He was racking his mind again.
"Then Knight Callerod is invited to the stage. Sengerorton had just said this, but he was interrupted again.
"Please wait a minute"
This time it was Dean Lance who stood up, and he said with a grin, "May I ask if the next topic is to talk about the succession of another Friar?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Sengerorton nodded.
Dean Lance shrugged and said, "Then, I suggest that you take the affidavit after the next item is passed, which will save you from pronouncing twice in a row and saving a lot of trouble." β
"That seems reasonable......" Sengerorton replied without thinking.
The faces of Domol and the others changed, and he himself even jumped up directly and shouted: "This is not in accordance with the regulations"
If this is done, the Monk Master chosen by the Knights Alliance will not be able to play a role in waiting for the Mage Council to come up with a successor.
"It is true that every prefect is unique, and there is no substitute for him, and no one can share in their own personal glory. Sitting on one side, the vice-president Liement, who had not spoken much, suddenly spoke, "Also, Brother Dean Reims, please pay attention to your words, the succession of the Chief Monk is extremely sacred, and it is not a 'trouble' matter. β
Dean Lance shrugged and sat back down.
Domol let out a long breath, and he slammed the armrest, damn the Holy See, it really wasn't so peaceful
After Callelord came to power, Sengerodon retook the oath with him, but this Callelord didn't seem to be good at words, and then he stammered, and the original passionate oath made him feel drowsy and dry.
After Callelord sat down on the side of the Knights' League, everyone in the audience had a sense of relief that it was "finally over".
"Next topic. Sengeroten paused, he looked around, and when he saw that no one had interrupted him, he exclaimed, "As for the recommendation of the successor to the Monk, there are four Monks' recommendations for the Descartes Succession Seminary, and the ...... recommender"
"Wait a minute, please. Boris suddenly spoke up, having just become the chief monk, he was about to show his existence.
He asked in a deep voice, "Excuse me, what rank is this Cartesian mage?"
Sengerodon looked down at the recommendation and said, "Level twelve." β
Boris said with a serious face: "Although he has reached the rank approved by the chief monk, has this mage made any meritorious deeds?"
Naorather stood up and responded, "In the Battle of the Heroic Temple, Mage Descartes pinned down the Council of Kings and successfully uncovered their conspiracy, which directly led to their final defeat."
Boris smiled contemptuously and said, "Then Brother Olasser, you should know who defeated the Council of the Dead in the end, who thwarted their plot, is it Brother Lantiston, do you want to erase Brother Lantiston's merits?"
Domol stood up with a grim face and said, "Isn't Friar Rantiston also promoted directly from an ordinary member to the rank of Monk?
Boris glanced at him disdainfully, and said, "After the failure of the Monks' Monks' multi-way attack, the Monk Lantiston killed the black dragon Nimbast by himself, and finally made the Monks' tentacles successfully extend to the South China Sea and gain a firm foothold.
Domol was speechless for a moment.
Naorather sighed and said, "Descartes is indeed not suitable, and if you lift him to this position at this time, he will be crushed if he falls." β
He shook his head and sat down.
Domor frowned, he also knew that Olaser's attitude was not very much in favor of this candidate, although he had thought of this ending for a long time, but he was not afraid, because he still had a backhand, Descartes was originally thrown out for temptation and sacrifice, their mage will not lack suitable people like the Knights Alliance, just the living Three Elements Tower Master is enough to be qualified to sit in this position.
"So, may I ask the chief monks who wrote the letter of recommendation, do you have any other suitable candidates?" asked Sengerodon.
Domore straightened his shirt, and he was about to stand up, but someone preemptively spoke.
"I think I should recommend someone. β
Luo Lan stood up.
Domol was stunned for a moment, then stood up with the same sneer, and said, "Does Bishop Landiston want to recommend members of the Holy See for this seat? β
Luo Lan smiled faintly and said, "Of course I won't recommend people from the Holy See. β
Domol said sarcastically, "Oh, is it still our Mage Guild that Monk Lantiston recommended?"
Luo Lan smiled at him and said, "That's true. β
Seeing Luo Lan's smile, Domoore's heart was shocked, and he had a bad premonition.
Luo Lan said slowly: "I propose that Master Abner succeed him as the head monk."
"Master Abner?" Domor was stunned for a moment, and blurted out, "He's long gone"
The so-called disappearance is actually death, after Abner was banished, no one could find him, since even his mentor Adriman was dead, then it is obviously impossible for him to survive, and it is possible that he will not even be able to find his body.
Even in order to appease the mages who worshiped Adriman, they added a lot of feats to Abner, which were dead anyway, and they were not afraid of someone taking them.
But now I didn't expect that Luo Lan actually brought up this person, and the feeling of uneasiness in Domoore's heart became stronger and stronger.
Sure enough, Luo Lan said in a deep voice: "Master Abner didn't die, he was just shot to other places by magic catapults, and he just recovered from his injuries a few days ago. β
Without waiting for Domor to speak, Luo Lan continued: "Master Abner reached the middle level of mage at the age of fourteen, and has the title of genius laurel, and he is a disciple of His Excellency Emperor Adriman, with a prominent status, and also participated in the layout of the contest with the Council of the Dead, and successfully repelled the attack of the Council of the Dead, these merits, the Mage Council also recognizes, Master Domor, am I right?"
Domol's hands were trembling, and he felt bitterness in his mouth, if he didn't recognize Abner's merits, then it meant that the mage would lose the battle of the Temple, and if he did, then he would confirm Abner's honor.
"This is a testimonial. Luo Lan took out a bunch of parchment rolls, walked to the front of Sengerodon's stage and put it down, and said politely: "Elder, we are a total of five chief monks who have recommended Master Abner as the successor of the chief monks. β
"Five?" said Domol stared at Luo Lan's back, what does this mean? It means that before Boris became the head monk, he wrote the name of this group of damn bastards in this recommendation
Sengerodon suddenly had a lot of good feelings for Luo Lan, and few people respected him so much as the president, and usually no one took him seriously.
He nodded, and said softly to Luo Lan: "Brother Lantiston, please give me the letter of recommendation, and I will announce it." β
"Please wait a minute"
Again, he was interrupted.
Vice President Soliment stood up, and he said coldly: "This letter of recommendation does not comply with the rules."
