In the scene where the crowd from inside the hall gradually fell silent, the light of the thrones gradually lit up one after another, and the figures of several great magicians were all reflected in everyone's eyes, and they seemed to have long been accustomed to the feeling of being watched, and they began to greet each other with their own eyes: "It's Romulus...... Hmph, how is your 'Adam' plan done? ”

"Don't give random names to my greatest masterpiece, Ms. Herm."

Facing the old lady's subsequent question, the middle-aged man who had answered earlier had a feeling of disdain in his gentle voice: "My puppet is not a work that you people can easily understand, and her appearance will overturn the entire school system of the wizarding world. ”

"That's what you claimed the last time we met." The old lady's voice was still full of bitterness and meanness: "It's been two years, and your supreme masterpiece still hasn't been released—it can't be an illusion made up out of thin air, right?" ”

"Shut up! Watch your words! The voice of the middle-aged man known as Romulus finally lost its previous warmth and calmness: "You are now talking to the members of the seven-member council of the Mage Council!" And the ruler of the future Tower of Tyranny! You-"

"Alright, okay, let's stop."

An indifferent voice then came from the air between the two of them, accompanied by another magician sitting in front of a certain magic throne gradually revealing a clear figure, waving his hands, he then pulled the huge wide-brimmed magic hat on his head, and at the same time showed him a staff inlaid with a huge magic crystal ball in his hand: "This time is different from the place where we usually meet, everyone else is watching us." ”

"Even if you're stared at by a bunch of lowly ants, you won't get much attention in your mind." He was answered by the grim voice of a female magician sitting on the last magic throne: "I don't think the presence of these ants will be of much help to our upcoming operation. ”

"At least it helps preserve the image of our Mage Council, doesn't it?" Slowly raising his head, the man with the huge crystal magic wand who was silenced from behind then revealed his eyes from under the wide magic cap: "And as far as I know Spery Detritley, what we need to discuss this time is also related to the secular world. ”

"We need to listen to them."

The corners of his mouth were like his eyes, and he smiled and gestured around him, and the crowd in the hall who had been in a stupid commotion because of the previous conversation gradually sank into their discussions with his action, and refocused their eyes on the center of these thrones in the center of the hall: "That's right, this meeting is mainly to discuss an issue. ”

"Concerning the future disposition of Tania."

In the voice of the old man named Wiggins, a huge magical light began to gradually condense in the sky above this hall, and the developing energy wielded by Wiggins or others gradually took shape under the extremely subtle operation, reflecting the three-dimensional outline of Tania after most of the city collapsed and had just undergone the baptism of disaster: "Tania's fate, I think all of you colleagues already know, the torrent of energy has destroyed most of the city's leylines, If left unrepaired, the city and its inhabitants will eventually be left in ruins. ”

"Allow me to thank all of you for all of you for your previous efforts for the city, on behalf of the members of the Council of Seven." Wiggins's voice paused for a moment before he continued in an unresponsive silence: "Without your mutual assistance during this time, this monumental project would have been almost impossible. ”

"But this incident has seriously delayed our original plan."

No one dared to interrupt the words of the leader of the Mage Council at this time, only Romulus, who was sitting below his left head, had the courage and qualifications to do so: "Proper remedies have allowed us to do our part for the world, and I don't think we should continue to waste more energy and time in this place." ”

"That's right, the Magic Council is eyeing them, and the dark forces behind them are ready to move." The vision of the city was retracted from the phantom of the city composed of magical lines above, and the magician named Sber Detritley, who was also part of the members of the Central Throne, also smiled and spoke: "I agree with Lord Romulus, otherwise we may fall behind again in future battles." ”

"Clifford, what do you think?"

Instead of nodding his head at the other party's voice, Romulus, who was approved by the great magician, set his eyes on the other magician sitting in the crowd at the back of the crowd who was close to the side: "You magic-making schools are also supporters of Sber?" ”

“…… That's right. ”

As if anticipating the question that appeared before him, the magician known as Clifford stood up and bowed slightly, and he gestured to the other magicians sitting around him who also nodded in greeting, and then repeated in a loud voice, "Lord Sber is our mentor, and we will naturally listen to Master Sber. ”

"You, you really have no ego! Lacks the self-judgment that a magician should have! A caustic voice named Lady Herm rang out over the hall, accompanied by the old lady-like figure waving her arms frantically: "Think of what your mentor just said! Do you really think he's thinking about the future of the Mage Council? ”

"You don't look like a selfless man who cares about Tania's future, Your Highness Herm." Then came the sneer of a dissolute voice in her ears: "Don't be angry about opposing your old rival, old lady. ”

"Rex! It's not your turn to speak here! Clearly discerning who was making the sound, Herm turned his finger to the wandering young man who was reclining on his throne: "Do you want me to tell the secret of that night?" ”

"I say, who the hell is this Lady Herm?"

Looking at Rex, who was being confronted by the opposite party, hurriedly waved his hand and retreated, Duan Qing, who was already immersed in this grand event, couldn't help but whisper to the red-haired girl sitting next to him: "I don't seem to have heard of this person before, and I haven't heard of any master who dares to provoke so many great magicians in the Council of Seven so unscrupulously......"

"The three people sitting over there are all candidates for the Council of Seven, that is, replacements for the Council of Seven." Lowering his voice as well, Thousandknuckle Crane shrank his head towards the front of the hall: "If something happens to someone in the Council of Seven, like Mr. Marlock, then the seats in the Council of Seven will be created from among these alternates. ”

"But there's something special about this Ms. Herm." Speaking of this, her brow furrowed slightly: "She is one of the members of the former Council of Seven. ”

"I see, it's a senior." Let out a slight sigh, Duan Qing then glanced at the old lady who was still losing her temper everywhere: "You individuals also made friends with her because they valued this identity before." ”

"Don't, don't say it so ugly." The red-haired girl glanced back at Duan Qing with an angry gaze: "This is no different from ordinary tasks, it is also a personal prestige, and walking inside the Mage Council, you will always encounter a moment to deal with these people." ”

"Then why do you care so much?" Duan Qing pointed to the door when they came: "At that time, they seemed to be the ones who completed the task normally, since it was a bounty for lost property, naturally whoever completed it was considered to have the greatest ability." ”

"If that's the case, that's fine." Then Thousand-Fingered Crane's expression became even more unhappy: "The magic gem that Lady Herm lost is not easy to recover, and it will take me a long time to trace the clues, they ...... They must have inquired about the characteristics of the gem and then paid for a similar gem to fill in. ”

"This trick of smashing tasks with money has been used many times in the past!"

As she said these words in a huff, her gaze involuntarily fell on the members of the Wind Breeze Guild looming behind Ms. Herm's seat, and they had just sat back in their seats, and then they also put away their restrained movements, and then the voice of Wiggins from the center of the hall was heard in her ears to confirm again: "In other words, you still support the people who continue to help Tania's side, right?" ”

"Even if we don't look at it for the sake of being members of the Duchy, we adventurers still hope to have Tania's support." Sitting on the side of this group of players, the headwind holding the blue magic ball replied in a leisurely voice, "Continuing to help the Duchy will also give our adventurers more opportunities to trust, which is a win-win situation." ”

"From the adventurer's point of view, you are indeed the one who should support the Mage Council to help." The jaw gestured, and Fernando Wiggins' gaze then became complicated: "But—I remember you're still nominally Rex's apprentice, right?" Don't you need to ask Rex himself for his opinion? ”

"Of course not." Saying this answer for the other party, Rex, who was leaning over, waved his hand casually: "In fact, you can completely ignore my existence, after all, I am completely indifferent to these worldly affairs, so if my vote is abstention-"

"Is that really good?"

The cold voice abruptly interrupted the other party's words, and at the same time, the eyes of the crowd were once again focused on the sorceress who had cowered in the dark corner and had interrupted Sber Debattlely: "You are a member of the Council of Seven, and your opinion represents one-seventh of the highest decision-making level of the Council of Mages. ”

"Now it's not one in seven, it's one in five."

Unconcerned about the results of his previous incompatible attitudes, Spery Detritley then smiled and slowly pulled off his magic hood: "Christine has not been heard from, Shanaido has not returned, and there are only five members of the Council of Seven, including the newly promoted Lord Romulus. ”

"Prad Infelidi."

Raising his voice to pronounce the name, Wiggins then called out a handsome young magician sitting behind Romulus with the group of magicians around him, "Are you and your puppet school following the advice of your mentor?" ”

"Allow me to correct the words of the Elder Speaker, as the most powerful and outstanding apprentice in the school, my research direction is mainly in ancient magic—uh."

The rather haughty look was then interrupted by a glance from the front, and the young magician, known as Prader, replied in a respectful voice, "Yes, I, Pudranc, and the apprentices behind me, are all following the instructions of Master Romulus. ”

"Then it's two-for-one."

Summing up in a low voice, Wiggins landed his old and energetic gaze on Kim, "What about your opinion?" ”

"I'm against it."

The answer was still so short that he didn't want to say a word, but the burly man in the golden magic robe then said an answer that surprised everyone, and also made Wiggins, who was looking at him, furrow his eyebrows slightly: "You also object?" Why? ”

“……”

Maintaining a motionless posture on the spot, Jin, who represented the leader of the earth magic of the Mage Council, then fell into silence again, and then the rock-like cold attitude also made the others around him lose the idea of questioning, and together with Wiggins, he turned to Freya, who also seemed restrained and silent: "It's your turn, Lord of Flames." ”

"I, we agree!"

Sitting on the throne formed by the flames, Freya, who was called, frowned herself, but the voice belonging to the Thousand Fingered Crane suddenly appeared in Duan Qing's ears, attracting everyone's attention: "I, I ......"

"We are willing to lend a helping hand to Tania."

As if asking for Duan Qing's opinion, the red-haired girl who had mustered up the courage to stand up glanced at Duan Qing secretly, and then repeated loudly with her chest puffed up in the other party's nodding motion: "Even if our ability is limited, we should try to help those in need, the citizens of Tania are currently living in dire straits, and they need our strength." ”

"This also represents my opinion." The brows gradually relaxed, and Freya's divine light that seemed to be burning with flames gradually converged into her closed eyes: "I agree." ”

"This is the first case of an apprentice who can decide this vote in reverse." Witnessing a scene that was even more surprising than King's answer just now, Wiggins then put away his rather interested expression, like the other magicians who were looking at the center of the hall in shock: "Then it's three to two." ”

"Ivlit."

His gaze returned to where the last sorceress was.

"It's you at the end."
