Volume 15 The War of Kings!Chapter 19 Promotion
The opposition of the listed gate caused a commotion in the audience.
"May I ask the vice president of the listed mente, is there something wrong?" Luo Lan turned around quietly, his face not showing the slightest annoyance of being stopped.
Despite being seventy-nine years old, the old man stood very straight, and from the angle below, the old man's gray hair was meticulously combed, and his gaze was indifferent but majestic.
He said very seriously: "It is a very sacred thing to recommend a successor to the head monk, even if the recommender is now the head monk, but as long as he has not had this status before this, then his name is invalid. ”
He paused, his tone became a little more stern, and said, "Moreover, to discuss the succession of the chief monk at the meeting of the monks' council, according to the procedure, it is necessary to submit the recommendation to the president in advance, so your actions at this moment will definitely not be recognized." ”
Domol could hear every word of the list clearly, and his heart could not help but be overjoyed.
He doesn't have any good feelings or disgust for Abner, but the other party is indeed a talent, but at the same time, the other party is a disciple of Adriman, once he sits in this position, he is likely to continue Adriman's system and fight against Merlin's traditional forces, so he is against this candidate in his heart.
What's more, now that the Holy See wants to support this person to come to power, then he will obstruct it even more.
It's just that before he could make a move against the other party, he was already rejected by the listed men, which was really an unexpected surprise.
He snorted, the Holy See was too urgent this time, so much so that it ignored the rules of the Monks' Council, in fact, everyone was doing things that broke the rules, and no one would really care, but it was in private, and now in the meeting of tens of thousands of people, as long as they are still members of the Monks' Council, then no one dares to blatantly break these regulations.
If the Holy See were to be defeated this time, the situation would change dramatically.
"I'm afraid you're mistaken, that recommendation Sun is just a copy of the one we handed over, and the original is already in the hands of Mr. President. ”
After saying this unexpectedly, Luo Lan turned to Senge Oton and said, "Elder, please take a look, if nothing else, it should be in the next topic." ”
Sengerodon hurriedly lowered his head and flipped through it, and without fiddling with it a few times, he took out a sheepskin recommendation letter, and said with surprise on his face: "It's really ......."
The look of surprise in Liement's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice, "Since there is already this recommendation, why do you have to hand in another copy?"
"That's right," Luo Lan explained: "Whether it is Master Domore's proposal, or our Holy See's proposal, the two discussions are actually the same issue, the difference is only that there is a difference between the candidate we launched and the candidate launched by the Mage Association, so there is no need to discuss it separately and hand over the copy, it is just to remind the Elder, and for the purpose of respect, we try to be solemn in the procedure, I didn't expect to cause trouble to you, Vice President." ”
Liement's gaze fell, and he said slowly, "Is that so?"
"Yes. Luo Lan said with a smile.
"Are the names of the five chief monks in the recommendation handed over?" said Listed Mente, accentuating the words "chief monks."
"Yes, that's it. Luo Lan nodded and replied affirmatively.
"I see. Lymente turned to look at Sengerodon and said calmly, "Then please continue to pronounce the recommendation." ”
The minds of those present were very nimble, and the fact that Listment said this was obviously equivalent to indicating that the chief monk who signed the name was not Boris, but someone else.
Domol was very puzzled, even if the Holy See added Angus Gale, it was only five chief monks, but since Boris was excluded from it, then where did they find a chief monk to sign the recommendation? Could it be someone from the Knights' League?
This is not impossible, because the Holy See did not embarrass them before, maybe this is the exchange of interests reached between them?
He pricked up his ears and listened carefully to Sengerodon's announcement, skipping the names of the previous people, until he couldn't help but open his mouth wide in disbelief when he heard "Brother Naorather".
Not only him, but there was also a sound of surprise from the audience, no less than the reaction when the listed Mente stood up against it just now.
That Olasser, it's him?
Domor turned his head angrily, he looked at the blue-robed "arcane mage", he stared at the other party as if he were looking at a betrayer, a naked deceiver.
"Why?" the words came out of Dormoor's throat.
Naoraser glanced at Domol absently, and said lightly: "Because Abner is more suitable than Descartes." ”
"How dare you betray the Mage Society...... You ......" Domol pointed at the other party, his eyes were bloodshot at this time, he had thought about everything, but he never thought that in the end, it would be "his own people" who had a problem.
"Please watch your words, Brother Dodor. Olaser also replied unceremoniously, "I chose the same mage from the Mage Society, and both status, status and merit are much higher than Descartes, why do you say that I betrayed the Mage Society?"
"Isn't it a betrayal to privately decide with the Holy See who will succeed the Monk?" Domour laughed angrily and said, "I thought you should know your position after that old fellow of Adriman died, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn, hum I will explain everything to the elders when I go back"
There was no response, and he simply closed his eyes and turned his head away, ignoring him.
At this time, Senger Orton had already asked twice in a row if anyone objected, but no one spoke up, since the mage guild had not dealt with this matter internally, the people of the Knight Alliance would naturally not have much trouble.
Domol could only watch as the seat fell to Abner.
"Master Abner, please stand on the stage. ”
Standing up from the high stairs a person who covered his whole body with a cloak, he lifted his hood at this time, revealing a young face, the frivolity and freedom of the past have disappeared, and what has precipitated on his face is perseverance and depth.
He silently walked to the stage, listened to Sengerodon's proclamation, followed by the affidavit, and then walked to his seat without saying a word, and sat down, without even looking at the other two monks in his camp.
Domore's face was gloomy, no matter how dissatisfied he was with Abner, it was inconvenient for him to have a seizure at this moment.
We have to wait until the meeting is over.
"Next, there is the issue of the promotion of Friars Lantyston to vice-president. ”
Domol was stunned, Vice President? Is anyone willing to sit in this position? Is Landiston dazed? Or does the Holy See want to do so?
It is true that the vice-presidents themselves do not have any real rights, and they do not even have the right to participate in the decision on the succession of the chief monks, and they are only responsible for monitoring the chief monks, and what is even more unflattering is that they also have the duty of monitoring the king and the strong.
The authority of Somente, like that of Solmen, was accumulated by the fact that he himself had served as the chief of the friars, and had sat in that position for thirty-six years.
But despite this, he could only show himself at the meeting.
The vice-president didn't have any troops to use, and even if he did, he would have taken it back to the Monks' Guild.
At first, Dormore didn't think much of it, but after a while, as if he had thought of something, his heart was shocked, and his eyes widened.
He almost forgot that the vice president had another right
That is, in times of war or confrontation with foreign forces, the Monks usually temporarily hand over the power of dispatch and command to the vice president.
At this time, the Vice-President has the right to mobilize multiple Monk Chiefs to attack the enemy, such as Jonathan who presided over the crusade against the Black Dragon Nimbast. Although he was later proven to be a fake, Jonathan's identity was concerned, because he himself was from the Holy See, he was able to mobilize three of the Friars of the Holy See at once, and the other two of the Monks of the Mage Order and the Knights' Alliance, but they could not refuse, because he represented the will of the Monks.
But who knows exactly when there will be war?
The raid on the Council of the Dead has just been repulsed, and the continent has already begun to become turbulent, giving Landiston this seat at this time, who knows what will happen?
Domol felt a coldness spread from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't help but say anymore:
"I don't agree"
Sengerorton reacted quickly this time, and he asked, "Brother Dormol, please give me your reasons." "The election of a vice-president is different from the succession of the chief monk, which needs to be recognized by the vast majority of the chief monks, so even if a chief monk opposes it, he has to pay attention to it.
"The previous vice-presidents of the Friars have no direct subordinates and no army, but Bishop Landiston does, which is against the rules of the Monks," Domore accused Luo Lan loudly.
"I'm afraid you're mistaken, until now there hasn't been a single official member of the Friars loyal to Monk Lantiston, how can he break the rules?"
According to the rules, as a monk, you can gain the allegiance of at least thirty high-ranking members, three hundred middle-ranking members, and three thousand low-ranking members, as well as the servants and armies under their control.
This is one of the reasons why the chief monk is terrifying.
Not only are they strong in their own right, but they also have elite military forces in their hands, not to mention that they have their own camp behind them.
However, before the meeting, Luo Lan had not been given these rights by the Monks' Council, and no one had given him allegiance, so he actually had no direct subordinates in the Monks' Council, and he relied entirely on his own strength and power, but in the same way, he was also less constrained by the Monks' Council.
It can be said that once he and the monk will turn against each other, unless a war is started, the monk will have nothing to do with him.
In the face of Sengerodon's rhetorical question, Domour did not say anything to refute it, the reason why he said this was to remind everyone present that Landiston himself did not rely on the rights granted by the Monks, not only did he have a prominent position, but more importantly, he also had his own fiefdom and legion
But that was even more dangerous, because it meant that not only was there no one to check him, but he also had the authority to oppress the monks
He will not allow it
He believed that the people sitting here were smart enough to hear his subtext.
The crowd fell silent, apparently in thought.
At this time, Lymente spoke, and he said in a deep voice: "Although Landiston has had a lot of merits before, and it is indeed a good choice to be promoted to vice president, but I would like to ask, Brother Lantiston, your current rank. Please answer me carefully."
He looked at Luo Lan solemnly.
Luo Lan didn't stand up, but sat there, and said lightly: "Fifteenth level upper." ”
Liement's brow actually jumped, and the chief monks present all looked at Luo Lan in unison.
Everyone knew that Luo Lan, who could defeat the Black Dragon, defeat Ibsail, and even defeat many members of the Council of the Dead and the Mask with the strength of one person, should be very strong, but he didn't expect it to be so strong, and even, as long as he took one step further, he would be the real king
Domoore wanted to jump out at this moment and say that Luo Lan was lying, but his body leaned forward and held back.
There was nothing wrong with the previous opposition, not even a little more vehement.
But now, if you accuse the other party of lying, it is tantamount to damaging the reputation of the other party, and you can directly propose a duel with yourself.
In this way, even if you are killed, you can't say anything.
Now that he had done all he could, he could only hope that the other monks would remain calm enough.
He didn't believe that the chief monks of the Knights could not see the problem, and as for Abner and Naorather, he had lost hope.
He sighed, once Lantyston was promoted to vice president, he couldn't imagine how much trouble he would cause for the mage
It's going to be a freak
The listed monk nodded and said, "Whether it is from the point of view of merit or his own rank, the promotion of Brother Landiston to the vice president is in line with the rules of the Monks' Guild, since this is the case, then it is decided in the most direct way, who is in favor and who is against?"
"I'm in favor," Boris was the first to speak, and he said firmly.
"I'm in favor of it too. Mogowatts said unhurriedly.
"Naturally, I wouldn't object. Dean Lance said with a smile.
Angus Gale was the fourth in favor.
Next was Abner, who looked at Luo Lan and said loudly, "Yes"
Na Olaser only hesitated slightly, and then said in a deep voice, "Yes." ”
"I'm against it" Domor's breath became short, he felt a stone in his chest, if it wasn't for the meeting, he would almost scream, wake up, wake up, don't you see that this is clearly the Holy See is expanding its power nakedly?
Finally it was the turn of the Knights' Alliance.
At this moment, their attitude is particularly important, and the audience was infected by an inexplicable atmosphere, and many people unconsciously held their breath.
Surprisingly, before Brother Frederick could speak, Mayvis spoke one step ahead, she raised her eyebrows, and said coldly, "Yes." ”
Brother Frederick's brows furrowed slightly, he glanced at Mayvis, as if thinking about something, and finally nodded, "I, yes"
Calelrod had just become the chief monk, and he was simple-minded and didn't have so many ideas, and seeing that the two leaders of his camp had no objection, he followed without hesitation and said, "Yes." ”
Domoor's eyes widened, it was not strange that the head monks of the Holy See and Angus Gale agreed with him, and it was not strange that Abner agreed with him, but it was actually that Olaser and the three heads of the monks of the Knight Alliance agreed?
In the end, he was the only one who objected?
He felt that his eyes were dark, his body shook, and he hurriedly held on to the table so that he did not fall to the ground.
Crazy, the whole world is crazy
His heart roared, don't you see the danger in this, don't you see that the Holy See is using the power of the monks to eat away at itself?
But the big picture is decided.
He didn't want to listen anymore, but he vaguely heard Senger Orton announce that Landiston had become vice president, and at this point, the situation on the stage was already reversed, and even if he had the heart to do something, there was nothing he could do at the moment.
After the first day's meeting, he returned to the lounge somewhat numb.
As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw at a glance the ** division of Lednoisa waiting there, and couldn't help but say ashamedly: "I'm sorry, father, I disappointed you." ”
"My son, what are you worried about?"
Lednoisa smiled, not only did he not see any frustration in his expression, but it made people feel as if everything was still under his control.
Domol clenched his fists and said, "Landiston has been promoted to vice president, once there is a war with the Council of the Dead, his power will expand dramatically, no, not only him, but the entire Holy See, their power will become unstoppable"
Lednoisa comforted him, "My son, I'm glad you saw this, but don't worry, even though Landiston has become vice president, he may not be able to stand firm. ”
"But what makes me even more angry is that the traitor Olaser actually agreed to this proposal" Domour clenched his fists in anger.
"What about Olaser?" Lednoisa shook his head and said, "You blame him, he didn't betray the Mage's Guild, and he approved because I made him do it." ”
"What? You asked him to do it?"
Domol looked at his father in disbelief, he couldn't figure out what was going on.
Lednoisa smiled deeply and said, "Just six days ago, the Elder and the Holy See Pildoca II, as well as General Hogg of the Knight Alliance, had a secret meeting, and it won't be long before the Monks Guild will send a number of monks and strong men to go deep into the hinterland of the Council of the Dead, recapture the Horn of the Abyss and prevent the Abyss Gate from opening again Due to the old age of the Vice-President of the Listed Ment, this time it must be Landiston who will lead the battle, and the only people he can directly mobilize are those who are now......"
Speaking of this, Domore finally understood his father's plan, this mission must be extremely dangerous, even if it can be completed, I am afraid that there are few people who can come back alive, thinking of this, he calmed down, but he suddenly asked: "What if Landiston comes back alive?"
Wouldn't that make him more prestigious? At that point, there really would be no one to stop him.
Lednoisa sneered, "Do you think that only Angus Gale is secretly trading with the Council of the Dead?"
Despite being his father, this grim smile still made Domol break out in a cold sweat.
He immediately understood the meaning of the sentence.
His father was going to leak the entire plan of action to the Council of the Dead
If this top-secret news were to be learned of by the Council of the Dead, they would have mobilized their men to kill the enemy deep into the hinterland, and would never let them run back alive
Lantiston, too, will be no exception
