Chapter 231: Qualifications of the Holy Son (I)
Sitting bored beside Cangxi and accepting the gaze of countless people, Mu Shi yawned a little boredly. Cang Xi yawned and laughed when he heard Mu Shi, "This thing is actually so boring, I don't know which idiot thought of it." ”
Mu Shi looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "Be quiet, this is someone's base camp." ”
"Afraid of what? I am the Chief Elder Emeritus! Saying that, Cangxi proudly straightened his chest, "How is it?!" Even the saint tried her best to worship me as a teacher, do you still dislike me? ”
Mu Shi smiled, "How dare you, Master, I'm honored." ”
Cangxi snorted, looking unbelieving. The people who were close heard the conversation between the two and their faces changed. The people who can sit in this position are the leading figures in the Li Kingdom, and after a little speculation from this dialogue, they can also understand who this strange-looking and arrogant old man in front of him is.
Then they were even more interested in Mu Shi's identity!
Mu Shi: ......
Fortunately, the Holy Election began, the Holy Maiden fell lightly in the center of the square with the Holy Light, smiling and looking at all the occasional representatives who participated in the Holy Election, the gentle voice was obviously not big, but the powerful elemental power contained in it spread throughout this huge meeting field, "I am honored to invite you to witness this Holy Election, I am the Holy Maiden Yuebai of the Holy See of Light, due to the temporary absence of the Pope, I will temporarily take the presiding position." ”
"If you have any opinions, Yuebai is willing to accept rectification." Not humble, not arrogant, pampered and not shocked. Mu Shi could only use these eight words to evaluate this moon white saintess, and looked at the beautiful woman who was generous and decently controlling the audience, and Mu Shi wanted to know the actual age of this woman for a while.
"The holy woman laughed, His Majesty the Pope died early, you have been diligently and tremblingly maintaining the peace between the Holy See and the Kingdom of Li all these years, we have seen it in our eyes, how can we have opinions!" On the pale gold seat, a middle-aged man with a big belly said in a kind way, if it weren't for the aura that completely offset the obscenity of the image, Mu Shi would have wondered if this person had other thoughts about the saint.
With this person taking the lead, the entire venue was echoed for a while. The saintess showed a hint of gratitude and said softly, "Thank you for your support and understanding, Yuebai is grateful." ”
"So!" The Holy Maiden suddenly swept away her look of emotion, and the speed at which she changed her face made Mu Shi amazed, "I am honored to announce here that the 169th Holy Selection of the Holy See of Light begins now!" ”
"Bang Bang!" The applause rang out like thunder, and the dazzling light elemental clusters flew in the air like elves, some of them surrounded the holy woman, and many people were stunned when they saw it, and they looked at the holy woman with their hands folded with reverence and whispered.
Mu Shi looked at this contrived ceremony, a little speechless, how can this Bright Holy See be a bit like a pyramid scheme leader?!
"As we all know, the Son is not only a representative of light, a spiritual symbol of the kingdom of Lai, but also the heir of the Pope." The Holy Maiden smiled and looked at the candidates standing at the top, "Therefore, the Holy Son must not only have the recognition of the light, but also have the strength to protect his people. ”
"The popular vote accounts for one-third of the Son's factors, and the remaining two points will be decided today." The saintess took a step, her body rose into the air, and her back showed pale golden light wings, looking like an angel of light.
"What are you waiting for, the time has come to show your strength." As soon as the words fell, several figures fell, all dressed in white, with a noble and elegant temperament, with the same warm smile. Li Yuansheng is also among them.
Mu Shi cheered up and said softly, "Is it finally about to start?" What to do? ”
Cangxi burped, touched his stomach and said lazily, "What else can it be compared to?" The so-called peaceful country is no different in this world of power. ”
"Oh—so it's still a fight!" Mu Shi knew that she was interested, and she really liked things like real guns and hand-to-hand combat. Sitting up straight, Mu Shi watched carefully.
There are a total of six candidates including Li Yuansheng, and Li Yuansheng should be the smallest in terms of appearance. But the oldest is only about 20 years old. After all, the Son and the Holy Woman are elected alternately, and the Pope is generally one term for women and one for one man. If the Holy Son in this election is too big and too strong, the Holy Maiden will fight back and seize power.
The remaining five people glanced at each other, all of them were far away from Li Yuansheng, faintly isolated. Mu Shidi frowned slightly, "It's not good, Xiao Sheng's voice is too high, and he is isolated by others." If it's a group battle, it's too much of a loss. "She still remembers that Li Yuansheng didn't have a contract beast.
"Don't worry, one-on-one fighting, point system." Cangxi replied by leaning back in his chair. This is the saint who walked over with a smile, "Are you still satisfied?" ”
"I'm satisfied." Cangxi came to the spirit, "Little doll, you are more capable of being a man than that old man!" ”
The saint smiled, sat down on the chair beside Cangxi, and said tentatively, "Who are the seniors optimistic about this time?" ”
Cangxi glanced at the Holy Maiden strangely and said with a smile, "What's the matter, do I think who can decide the final Holy Choice?" ”
The saint smiled silently. Cangxi helplessly reached out and rubbed his head, "You little girl has a lot of eyes." But let me tell you, I'm not optimistic about anyone. Only take a good look at my apprentice! ”
Mu Shi was stunned, and said in his heart, "What's the matter with me?" ”
The saintess glanced at Mu Shi in surprise, quickly restrained her emotions, and said with a smile, "Oh? Do you love your apprentices so much in the hearts of your seniors? Don't hide any selfish intentions~"
Cangxi laughed, stroked his palms and said, "Old man, I am a person who protects my shortcomings, and I finally have an apprentice, of course I have to take care of it." ”
The saint smiled slightly, looking at Mu Shi with a look of envy, "What a lucky little guy~"
Mu Shi was a little awkward, the other party obviously didn't look much older than himself, what was the situation with a little guy, "It was the master who lifted me, how could I have the ability to be a holy son?" After saying that, he glared at Cangxi, hinting not to talk nonsense. Cangxi understood, and smiled even more happily, "Yes, yes, I forgot, it's really not suitable." ”
The saint thought for a moment, smiled and said nothing.
The draw has ended in the central square over there, and six people take turns to play against each other, and one point will be added if they win. In the end, the person with the most points will decide the choice of the Son to stay according to the final evaluation.
The first round of combat began quickly, drawing most of the attention to the past.
Mu Shi immediately came to the spirit, light magicians are very rare, and one-third of places like Li Guo are light magicians. Therefore, for the battle of light magicians, Mu Shi naturally will not miss it, and he can comprehend and learn a little more. After all, the North Night can't teach itself anything about the light element.
After looking at it for a while, Mu Shi couldn't help but have a black line. These people are obviously unwilling to exert their strength, and the fight is like Tai Chi. Light magic itself is not as powerful as other types, but the damage to demons is too high. However, once you reach the level of advanced magic, your attack power will become very powerful, comparable to that of dark magic.
But it was clear that it was impossible for these people to perform high-level magic.
Li Yuansheng was the last to appear in the first round, but his style was different in the last two games, and as soon as he came up, he started a strong offensive, and the opponent was caught off guard, and he was beaten without even summoning the contract beast.
The resolute attitude made everyone present gasp, and Li Yuansheng's eyes changed a lot.
The opponent got up with a disgraced face, snorted a mouthful of dust, and was a little angry, "What kind of nerves are you, use all your strength now, I'll see what you do in the next two games!" ”
Li Yuansheng smiled slightly, "Don't bother." ”
The opponent had no choice, the ending was decided, so he had to go down the field with hatred.
Li Yuansheng glanced at his grandfather's location, and saw that the other party nodded very agreeably and satisfied, and his eyes brightened.
The white sunlight under the field squinted his eyes, hiding a trace of coldness.
Intermission was given a stick of incense and the second round began quickly. Soon, Mu Shi found that these people were like an appointment, and they reserved their strength to fight casually. I sighed in my heart, knowing that what I feared most had happened.
Li Yuansheng is still the last to appear, and Mu Shi, who is shouting loudly outside, can be heard here.
This time, the opponent was much more vigilant than the previous one, and instantly released the contract beast and concentrated on fighting Li Yuansheng. After fighting for a while, Li Yuansheng still didn't summon the contract beast, which made many people speculate.
The opponent was also annoyed and shouted, "Why don't you summon your contract beast!" Do you look down on me so much? ”
Li Yuansheng said with a bright smile while dealing with this anger, "Our Light Mage of St. Ann's Academy doesn't need contract beasts!" ”
"That's!" The young man laughed angrily, and his attacks became more and more violent. Li Yuansheng has less contract beasts, so he naturally has some disadvantages, not only to deal with the anger of his opponents, but also to deal with the attacks of contract beasts. Even if the spiritual weapon in his hand is powerful, he is a little too busy to take care of himself.
Fortunately, there was a thrilling victory, which made many people breathe a sigh of relief. Every time the Holy Election opens the gambling market, it is naturally not a problem, and most of them have suppressed Li Yuansheng this time.
Mu Shi's brows did become tighter and tighter, although Li Yuansheng won this time, the consumption was indeed huge. On the other hand, the other four people played soy sauce in general, and they didn't consume it at all. And Li Yuansheng's next opponent is Bai Ruge.
That guy is obviously at odds with Li Yuansheng, and I'm afraid that this matter is also fueled by the other party.
"The rules of your religion seem to make it easy for people to take advantage of loopholes." Mu Shi inadvertently spoke. The holy woman was slightly stunned when she heard this, but before she could say anything, the bishop behind her raised her eyebrows and scolded angrily, "Presumptuous! How can the rules of the Holy Election allow you, a yellow-mouthed child, to speculate wildly......." Before he finished speaking, a white light struck him like thunder, and he was immediately smashed to the ground and was so painful that he couldn't speak.
"You are presumptuous, and the old man's apprentice is also worthy of your reprimand?!" Cangxi blew his beard and glared at him, very unhappy. Mu Shi was stunned, he didn't expect Cangxi to be so protective of his shortcomings, and he couldn't help it.
The bishops looked vigilant in front of the saint, for fear that Cangxi would hit the saint. The saint was stunned, then smiled and waved the bishop away, "It's okay, you sit down." ”
