Standing outside the Great Hall of the Demon Hunter Headquarters, Jiang Chengyong was anxiously waiting.

He is not a deacon, and he is not even a witcher, and he is not qualified to participate in the meetings of the highest authority of the witchers, and he can't observe, so he can only wait honestly outside.

The meeting in the Great Hall had been held for two hours, and Jiang Chengyong couldn't hear any news, so he could only be anxious.

There was a 'squeak', and the door to the Great Hall was pushed open from the inside. Jiang Chengyong tried his best to look inside at the door, and after a while, he saw Sun Zheng's figure.

"Mr. Sun, Mr. Sun, please stay." Jiang Dashao hurriedly squeezed to Sun Zheng's side and asked, "How is the situation?" ”

Sun Zheng shook his head, and said with a not very good-looking face: "It's still the intermission of the meeting, and the proposal you want to promote has only been discussed for half an hour, and there are no definite results yet." But ......"

The two words 'but' made Jiang Chengyong's heart sink.

Sun Zheng sighed and continued: "But the situation is relatively bad, you have to be mentally prepared for failure. ”

"Please also ask Mr. Sun to do his best."

"I will." Sun Zheng looked around twice, and then asked, "Why didn't you see Li Wei?" ”

Jiang Chengyong said helplessly: "He said that he is not a deacon, and he can't attend this meeting, so he can't come." ”

"This guy ......" Sun Zheng was a little angry, he was entrusted by Li Wei to make a generous speech at the deacon conference, against many opponents, and he was at the scene, but the guy didn't even come to the scene.

……

The intermission of the meeting was not really a break. With the energy of a group of sub-evolutionaries, a meeting of two or three hours will not be exhausted. This so-called intermission is more like giving everyone a private contact time when there is no result in important meetings and important topics.

Perhaps, communicating with each other privately about some of the more complex and anxious negotiations will help make a breakthrough in the deadlocked meeting, which is also the wisdom of the demon hunters.

Soon, the break lasted more than forty minutes, and soon, as the bell rang in the Great Hall, the deacons returned to the Great Hall one after another, and the tormented negotiations resumed.

A female senior deacon stood up, one of the results of Sun Zheng's intermission of more than 40 minutes, and she persuaded a senior deacon who had already agreed with her to become more resolute and willing to charge into the meeting.

After the female senior deacon finished speaking, several deacons stood up, no less than in the first half.

At the same time, Ittihad and Orison also spoke at the same time.

The two deacons had a much greater say, and for a while, the side that agreed with the 'proposal' instantly became more powerful at the beginning of the second half, and seemed to reverse the decline of the first half in one fell swoop.

But all this, after He Chengming stood up, disappeared like a bubble in the sun.

"It's all lies!"

As soon as the four words came out, the audience was suppressed. If you want to say that you have a loud voice, there are really few people who can compare to this old gentleman.

He Chengming is ninety-six years old this year, his body is still healthy, and his gray hair and beard make it almost impossible to see his true appearance. He was dressed in a white robe and had a cane in his hand.

He was also a member of the Elements List when he was younger.

The body aging rate of a person with strong elements is slower than that of ordinary people. Normal human beings begin to enter a more obvious aging period in their fifties, while those with strong elements basically reach the age of seventy.

This old gentleman was famous for his hot temper when he was young. is old, and his body is not as capable of fighting as before, but his temper is more irritable than it was back then.

"Why do you say mutants are human beings like us? Hear this! Those bloodthirsty monsters with rat heads, lizard heads, can't control their emotions, you call them 'humans'? ”

"Sun Zheng! You said that the Black Autumn Mountain Guild recruited a large number of mutants to join the team of demon hunters, why did this matter be implemented without the approval of the deacon's assembly? This is a blasphemy against the tradition of witchers! Why did Weber have such power? Who gave him this power? ”

"Abolish the task of hunting mutants, then let me ask you, who is in charge of those things that we often hear about in a village or a community, where angry mutants suddenly appear to hurt and kill people? Are you going to rely on the rotten police of the Kingdom of Westdum to take care of this? ”

"And those who say that these hunting missions are just a little money, not to mention the matter of money, aren't these disasters the job of our witchers?"

"Besides, even from an economic point of view, can the money be given up as you say? How many low-level hunters live by relying on these small tasks to accumulate experience and make money? With one mouth, you cut off so many people's way of life? ”

……

The meal was impassioned, and many people were speechless.

In fact, his remarks are not without room for refutation. It's just that people with a status not as high as him, including Sun Zheng, don't dare to speak up against him. The chief deacon, who was in the same position as him, did not want to make the scene too ugly, after all, this matter had nothing to do with his own vital interests.

As a result, the scene was a little embarrassing. The party in favor of the proposal seems to have been suppressed by He Chengming alone.

There was a bit of a beating of the water dogs, and the deacons who had just been suppressed on He Chengming's side also spoke out after him. For a time, the west wind overwhelmed the east wind, and the situation was completely reversed.

When the two sides quarreled and He Chengming's side began to gain the upper hand, Sun Zheng soon found that things were not good. Many of their own people began to waver. Some of the wall grasses quickly swayed towards the other side under the huge momentum, and even a few people who were originally on the side of the favor became shaken.

However, Sun Zheng didn't have any good ideas, and he couldn't think of any words. He could only look at Orison and Ittihad with a distressed gaze.

Both of them saw his gaze, but they could only shake their heads, indicating that they couldn't help it.

Finally, when another deacon, who was originally neutral, began to gradually stand on He Chengming's side, Sun Zheng's gaze finally gradually despaired.

His eyes looked outside the Great Hall, and he apologized to Jiang Chengyong and Li Wei in his heart: "No way, I have done my best......"

At this moment, he saw that the door of the Great Hall was suddenly pushed open, and Levi strode in.
