In the Temple of the Dark Elves, the High Priest personally poured a cup of tea for Hermes.

Seated in his master's seat, the high priest looked at Hermes with deep eyes, waiting for his next step.

Taking a sip of tea gently, Hermis seemed to be organizing the language, but in fact he was receiving Yang Bai's instructions.

"In my opinion, if you want the Dark Elf Kingdom to be more prosperous, unification is inevitable. The current Dark Elf Temple, there is no healthy competition at all, this is dross, and it should be eliminated! Finally, Hemis spoke.

With a frown, the High Priest did not speak, but remained silent, knowing that Hermes would continue.

"Ever since the day I became the chief priest of the North, I've been thinking about it. Should you stick to the side of the Western Chief Priest, or join your command and unite the Temple? Hemis continued.

"What is your purpose, you can't convince me with these words alone." The High Priest shook his head.

"For the unification of the Temple, of course......," Hermis raised his voice.

The High Priest shook his head again, and then locked on Hermes's eyes with a scrutinizing gaze.

After a few seconds of silence, Hermes sighed deeply.

"As you know, although there are four of the chief priests, including you and me, we are the only ones who can enter the Senate."

Theoretically, the other two chief priests were much more senior than Hermes, but why was it only Hermes who became members of the Senate?

That's because the Senate has an iron law, that is, members must have noble blood.

Dark skin, white hair as thin as spider silk, and pride and warlike are the characteristics of the isolated Dark Elves.

They lived mainly in their own kingdom and had less contact with other races. However, because they are the only ones who have the ability to use magic to create flying ships, there have been many dark elf giants active in various parts of the continent since ancient times.

And the dark elves and the elves originally belonged to the same origin, and later because they were cursed by the god of beauty, Venus, they became the appearance of fallen elves.

Because of the curse, the dark elves basically have a violent and self-centered personality, coupled with their powerful magical abilities, they do not have a good reputation in the world.

However, if it is a dark elf who once had the royal blood of the elf clan, the personality will be relatively closer to the elf...... That is, to be calmer and smarter.

Although among the civilian dark elves, there are also some wise men. But for the senators, such a screening is inevitably too cumbersome.

Therefore, the Senate directly laid down a rule that non-aristocratic dark elves were not allowed to enter the Senate.

"You want to gain a foothold in the Senate?" The high priest understood what Hermes meant.

First of all, as both of them are patriarchs, if they are united, then the power of the temple will inevitably be tightly held in their hands, and the chief priest of the West who promoted Hermes will not be able to jump.

And then that's the purpose of Hermes, although he is now a member of the senators, but obviously belongs to the most marginal existence, no matter what, he can't express his opinion, he can only be regarded as an observer.

In the High Priest's view, Hermes was different from himself, and Hermes was younger and naturally more ambitious.

At this time, seeing the change in the high priest's expression, Hermes looked happy and immediately struck while the iron was hot.

"You may be upset if I say something, you are not young anymore, even if I lift you to that position, you ...... So there is no conflict between the two of us. ”

"When you are alive, I will assist you wholeheartedly. And you want to help me elevate my position in the Senate, so that our alliance is completed! ”

Hermes's words may have been a bit off, but in the eyes of the high priest, they were true.

At his current age, he may live another hundred years. If he cooperates with Hermis, he can draw a perfect end to his life.

And for Hermes, as long as the high priest died, then he could inherit the position of high priest. Until then, there should be no reason for him to do anything unfavorable to the High Priest.

"I need to see your sincerity!" After pondering for a long time, the high priest uttered these words. And this means that he acquiesced to Hermis's opinion.

"This high priest has been ruled out." Yang Bai secretly removed the high priest from the object of suspicion.

His words, deeds, and way of thinking are obviously not possible as Herder's puppet. If he was, then it was impossible for Herder to allow the High Priest to ally with Hermes for the sake of his own plans.

The rest of the time was met with the High Priest. And Yang Bai's side also represents the completion of the first phase of the plan.

He succeeded in eliminating a suspicious target, and was supported by the High Priest. This means that in the next plan, it will be easier for Hermes to get rid of the "puppet".

Over the next few days, Hermes' operation began. Without giving the chief priest of the West time to react, the High Priest and Hemis immediately emptied the power of the chief priest of the West.

The full power of the temple was successfully held in the hands of the high priest. And after this was done, the high priest did not do anything to unload the mill and kill the donkey.

It's better to say that because of the cooperation, both sides have some handles from the other, so he can't unload the mill and kill the donkey.

Relying on his connections in the Senate, the High Priest quickly helped Hermes secure his position. When more than half of the people are not ignoring Hermes, it means that he has some right to speak.

……

Huttonmar, Left Chancellor's Office.

Standing in front of the Left Minister Berenk were a hundred spirited knights.

The heavy rain did not shake anyone, and all that could be heard in this square was the heavy gasps of the knights.

These people were all Bellenk's mortal private soldiers who had spent a lot of money on training, dressed in pure black heavy armor, and each of them had a pitch-black sword hanging from their waists.

"Warriors of the Night Army, years of training are just for this day, please help me become the king of this land!" Drawing the broadsword at his waist, Belenk was in high spirits.

"For Lord Bellenk!"

"For Lord Bellenk!"

A hideous smile appeared on his face, and listening to the shouts below, Belenk's eyes seemed to glow blood.

"Destination Belmar Palace, Destination Queen Skadi's head, go!"

On this rainy night, under the leadership of Berenk, a group of powerful and good guests are about to arrive at Belmar Palace.
