Chapter 1005: So Arrogant?
Ma Sen and Ou Ling were originally very strange, how could Grosso, who had always been arrogant, hear Lin Li speak, the two of them realized that it must be their roommate who did something to Grosso, it is said that he has stepped into the legendary realm, I am afraid this is the method of the legendary mage.
The three of them continued to chat, and then left the side hall, leaving Grosso standing stiffly in place, watching the three of them leave, but they couldn't do anything, the feeling of not being able to control their bodies almost made him collapse.
Lin Li, Ma Sen, and Ou Ling didn't look for a special place, so they just found a quiet corner in the hall and continued to chat about their respective affairs in the past few years. However, it didn't take long for Odwin and others to come over and inform Lin Li that the regular meeting was about to begin, while Masson and Ou Ling were sent by their respective teachers to study in the library of the Supreme Council.
Under the leadership of Odwin, Lin Li followed everyone towards the venue where the regular meeting was held, and at this time, the people who were originally in the hall were all the same, some of them walked in the direction of the venue, and some of the younger disciples and students walked outside the hall, presumably most of them were also going to the library to study.
In almost a minute or two, the people in the hall were gone, and the hall, which was originally filled with all kinds of whispers, became silent. No one noticed that in one of the side halls of the hall, there was a young man standing there with frightened eyes.
The venue where the Supreme Council holds its regular session is an oval-shaped venue, and the seating arrangement in the meeting hall is also an ellipse from the inside to the outside. Each councillor's position is spacious, with a certain distance from each other, and each table has a councillor's name tag.
When Lin Li came to the venue, there were already a lot of people sitting inside, and in the direction directly from the exit, Speaker Anduin and Deputy Speaker Northon were already seated, and on either side of them were the positions of high-ranking councilors.
As the president of the Orlana Magic Association, and with the contribution of the last exploration of Osric's tomb, Odwin is sitting next to Anduin, which shows that his status is second only to the two speakers.
After bringing Lin Li and the others into the venue, Odwin said to a few people, and then took a step forward and walked to his position. The rest of Lin Li, Medellin, Joey and Haenner are all just ordinary councilors, but the positions of the four are not together, especially Lin Li is a new councilor, and his position is in the outermost area.
When all the councillors were seated, the meeting finally began, and the first topic to be discussed at the meeting surprised Lin Li, who had participated in this kind of meeting for the first time.
"The border situation between the Kingdom of France and the Kingdom of Leiding has become increasingly tense recently, and border clashes have occurred from time to time. I would like to invite members of Parliament to discuss the attitude of the Supreme Council in response to a possible war between the two countries in the future. After Anduin finished talking about the regular meeting, he sat back in his seat and waited for everyone to speak.
As soon as Anduin sat down, someone motioned to speak, and after receiving permission, the councillor stood up, looked around the venue, and said in a deep voice: "There is one thing, I believe everyone here should have experienced, the magic genius who was once favored by himself and thought had a great future often fell into a bottleneck at a certain stage, as if all his talents disappeared overnight, and became so ordinary that he could not be more ordinary, which disappointed us greatly. ”
Seeing that the deputies nodded slightly, the speaker also became more confident, gradually raised his voice, and said: "The reason is that the Anriel Continent has been peaceful for too long, so that the young magicians can't get enough experience, so that they don't even have enough courage to face difficulties. Only by experiencing the baptism of war and the real test of life and death can they know how insignificant the difficulties they are facing. Therefore, I believe that not only can we not stop this war, but we must also push it and make it more intense, so that the young magicians can be trained enough. ”
The congressman made an impassioned statement, then looked at the reactions of the surrounding members of the House of Representatives, and then bowed to Speaker Anduin and sat down.
There is some truth in this councilor's view, and it is a well-known fact that people will burst out with greater potential in life and death. Moreover, there are many examples of people in the world who have taken risks to break through bottlenecks and eventually succeeded, so war can indeed be used as a catalyst.
However, not everyone would agree with this view, and shortly after the previous member sat down, someone stood up and retorted unceremoniously: "It's just nonsense, you only see the trials of war on people, but ignore the destruction of war on people." In those wars in history, it is true that a lot of talents have emerged, but how many outstanding talents have fallen in the wars, and how many talents have been stifled before they have achieved something, you have not calculated. I can tell you that there is definitely a lot more to lose than to gain. ”
"Since it was eliminated by the war, it cannot be called a talent! The power of magic must be comprehended through war, and without war, ......" and a congressman who supported the theory of war immediately stood up.
Lin Li sat in the back seat, listening to the hundreds of parliamentarians divided into two factions and constantly arguing, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. No wonder, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Supreme Council can decide the fate of Anriel's world. Regardless of who is right and who is wrong on both sides, it does not seem to be a problem for them to manipulate such a war involving the two great powers, they can let it happen or they can let it not happen.
The pro-war and anti-war factions took turns to speak, and the debate in the room was very fierce, while Lin Li sat in the corner and said nothing. He was a little new at first, but as time went on, he gradually felt a little drowsy. Just such a topic was discussed for a day, and until the end of the meeting, Lin Li didn't even know whether they had discussed it or not.
After the meeting, Lin Li, who sat at the end, walked out of the venue first, stood at the door and waited for a while, and Medellin and others also came out. As for Odwin, as a high-ranking councilor, he has to stay with other high-ranking councillors to continue to discuss the topic just now and prepare for the final resolution.
At another exit not far from Lin Li, Medellin and the others, a middle-aged magician in his fifties had just walked out of the door, and a great magician in charge of the order of the venue greeted him, and leaned closer and whispered a few words.
"What! Anyone dares to do it here? The middle-aged magician was shocked when he heard this, but he remembered that it was not appropriate to make noise here, so he lowered his voice again, and hurriedly said to the visitor: "Take me over quickly!" ”
The archmage who had come to report the news persuaded while leading the way: "Councilor Reddings, don't worry too much, Grosso has not been harmed, but is trapped by magical confinement. ”
Before the meeting began, Reddings saw that his student Grosso had not come to him, and thought that he had gone to the library to study. Unexpectedly, at the end of the day's meeting, I was told that I had just found out that Grosso had been imprisoned by magic and trapped in a side hall for a whole day.
Although Reddings knows that magic confinement doesn't cause much harm to people, but his student is inexplicably imprisoned for a day, isn't this equivalent to slapping himself in the face naked!
The person who can use magic to imprison and trap a level nineteen great mage for a whole day is at least a legendary level. This is where Reddings is angry, a person with legendary-level strength must also be a member of the council, what can't he say to himself, but he has to embarrass the junior.
Soon, Reddings came to the side room and saw Grosso, a student who had been trapped all day.
As soon as he saw the teacher appear, Grosso was about to shed tears, conscious but unable to control his body, the whole day was like a nightmare that he couldn't wake up from.
Fortunately, Lin Li didn't use much strength to imprison Grosso, and Reddings quickly lifted the magic power on Grosso's body, and then asked with anger: "Grosso, who made you like this." ”
With the support of the person next to him, Grosso, who was stiff, sat on the chair, endured and endured, and finally did not lose face in front of people, and said in a trembling voice: "Yes...... It was a guy with Masson Orling, whom I had never met before. ”
As soon as Grosso heard Grosso talk about Masson and Ou Ling, Reddings, as a teacher, immediately knew the possible cause of this incident, after all, Grosso had not targeted Masson and Ou Ling for a day or two. However, that doesn't mean that Reddings forgave the man for what he did to his students.
However, hearing Grosso say that he had never seen that person, Reddings couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. It's not once or twice that I bring my students to the regular meeting, and basically these councilors, even if they are not very familiar with them, should not be said to have never seen them. Is it a new MP? I really didn't pay attention to this, and I only discussed the issue of war at the previous meeting, and I didn't pay attention to whether there were any new faces.
Reddings saw the archmage who brought him over, they were in charge of the order of the venue, and there should be some news, so he asked, "Bejena, is there a new councilor attending the regular meeting today?" ”
"Well, it seems so," Bechena thought for a moment and said, "There are two new councillors today, one is President Joy of the Thousand Sails City Magic Guild, and the other is President Ferrey of the Breeze Plains Magic Guild. ”
"The Plain of Light Wind Magic Guild, Tower of Dusk?" Reddingston's eyes lit up, Joey's waste was only a nineteenth-level archmage, and he had no ability to imprison his own disciples, and the Captain Ferret of the Tower of Twilight was said to be a legendary mage, so it was very likely.
"What, Ferry! Is he Ferrey? Teacher, I'm sure ...... did it to me" Grosso realized at this time that the person he didn't pay attention to in the first place turned out to be the culprit who abolished his brother in the first place.
But before Grosso could finish speaking, Reddings shouted: "Shut up, President Ferrey is a long-term member of the council, and he is a new member of the Supreme Council, how can he do something to a junior like you." Come with me, don't embarrass me here. As he spoke, he glanced at the Archmage of Begena next to him.
Grosso was still a little aggrieved at first, but when he saw the teacher's hint, he suddenly understood a little in his heart, stood up forcefully, and obediently followed the teacher outside.
Watching the teacher and student leave, Begena shook her head amusedly, turned around and returned to the venue, only to act as if nothing had happened.
Grosso followed the teacher outside, and when he saw that there was no one around, he couldn't help but say: "Teacher, it must be that Ferre, he and Masson Orling were roommates at the beginning, and they had a good relationship, and my brother Gryffindor was abolished by him, and he must have wanted to abolish me as well." Especially, after they trapped me, they said things like waste students, waste teachers, not to mention how ugly they said. ”
Without Grosso's provocation, Reddings would not have given up, and a new MP would not make him jealous. No matter what the reason is, my students are cleaned up, and if I don't show up as a teacher, I won't be laughed at by others.
"It's just a new councilor, he dares to be so arrogant, you go and ask where he lives, I don't think he wants to do it!" Reddings dared to say this, not to save face in front of the students, but to be sure enough.
Members of the Supreme Council may seem great to others, but Reddings, who is also a member of the Council, knows that the identity of a member of the Council is nothing here. There are hundreds of members of the entire parliament, all of whom have the same identity, and they are really connected.
A new councilor who just joined today can have any great connections, don't look at the Joy of the Thousand Sails City Magic Union is also a new councilor, but he has been the president for so many years, and he has at least three or five friends who have a good relationship.
As for Lin Li, in Reddings' opinion, he is just the president of a new union that has only been established for a few years, and he is still in a place like the Light Wind Plain, so he has no opportunity to communicate with other magic unions at all, so where does he have connections.
But Reddings is different, after so many years of being a parliamentarian, many parliamentarians who do not give a little face. What's more, in the Supreme Council, the two speakers and eight high-ranking members really hold the supreme power. And he is having good friendships with several high-ranking councilors, and can even speak through them, and Deputy Speaker Noxon.
Therefore, in Reddings' opinion, with his own connections, it is simply too easy to pack up a new councilor, and maybe a few words will make the other party pack up his baggage and roll back to the Breeze Plain. At that time, the other party will not even have the identity of a parliamentarian, and he can knead it at will, so that he knows that this is the price of offending himself!
