The gray-cloaked middle-aged man was slightly stunned, cautiously looked at the majestic figure shrouded in darkness on the throne above, and said, "Lord Night King, although the 'Rejuvenation Spring' is expensive, it shouldn't be too much of a loss to be able to get an elder's submission, right?" ”

"If you can exchange it for his submission, you will not lose. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" The person on the throne said indifferently: "But this person calls himself the 'Demon King', hmph, the Bright Sect calls us evil demons, and he calls himself the 'Demon King', how can such an ambitious person be willing to succumb to others!" The current submission is just that he has just taken over as an elder, and his foundation is too weak to refuse, and if he has the opportunity in the future, he will inevitably establish himself as a king! ”

The gray-cloaked middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and he said: "Lord Night King, in that case, we might as well take the ninth district as our own before his wings harden, in this way, if he wants to be a 'demon king' in the future, he can only be a bare-pole commander." ”

"It is impossible to take it for yourself, but you must not give the opportunity to make the ninth district stronger, otherwise the pattern of checks and balances between the three kings will be broken and fall into chaos." The Night King said coldly.

"Yes."

……

……

The sky was bright.

Du Dian was still in his office looking through the information of the ninth district, after a night of reading, he already had a general understanding of the situation in the ninth district, in the entire twelve districts of the Dark See, the ninth district is below the middle, whether it is the number of believers in the area, wealth, and force, it is far inferior to other regions, especially the third district under the control of the 'Night King'.

"I didn't expect that the gap between the twelve regions would be so big, and I don't know if this Night King is a deacon of the Overseer appointed by the monastery." Du Di thought secretly in his heart, but then thought again, "It doesn't make a difference whether it is a person with the same identity or not, according to the words of the Minister of Punishment, once exposed, he will either return to the inner wall area to take up his post, or be pushed out to be in capital punishment, no matter what his identity is, he will either be a friend or an enemy in the future." ”

"Elder, you called me?" Hawkeye pushes the door in.

Dudian nodded and ordered, "Call all the five-star alchemists, great potions, great soothsayers, and the chief of the dark knights and the dark knights in our ninth district, and I want to have a meeting." ”

"Meeting?" Hawkeye was slightly stunned, but soon understood, nodded and said, "I'll go and inform them." ”

Dudian nodded, and when he went, he continued to look through other materials, which also included eleven other areas, all of which were gathered by the previous elders.

"The three kings of the twelve districts are the "Night King" of the third district, the "Sword King" of the first district, and the "Hades King" of the fifth district, and the three kings are attached to other elders, in addition, the second, tenth, and twelfth districts are all scattered factions, and there are no three attached to them, so it seems that they should be divided into four factions in total, and the three scattered factions should take care of each other, but only to a certain extent."

Du Dian's eyes flickered slightly, and he was silent in thought.

After a long time.

Eagle came forward to report and said respectfully: "Elder, the two five-star great alchemists Stuart and Corina have already arrived, waiting for you in the conference hall. ”

Du Dian glanced at the hourglass next to him, frowned, and said, "What about the others?" ”

Hawkeye bowed his head and said, "I'm still on my way." ”

"Is it usually so slow?" Dudian frowned.

Hawkeye glanced at him quietly and quickly lowered his head, "Elder, some of them have a long distance, and some of them have something to do, so it is inevitable that they will be a little slower." ”

Du Dian noticed his gaze, his face was slightly cold, and said, "What was the slowest meeting time for your meetings in the past?" ”

A hint of nervousness flashed in Hawkeye's eyes, and he said, "Elder Hui, the slowest in the past was about two and a half hours. ”

"Okay, it's been an hour now, wait another hour and a half." Du Dian waved his hand and said, "You can retreat first, let them wait first." ”

"Yes." Hawkeye wanted to speak and stopped, but finally held back and left.

An hour and a half passed quickly.

Knock, Hawkeye knocks at the door.

"Come in."

Hawkeye pushed the door in, looked at the desk and looked intently at Du Dian who was piled up next to him like several stacks of dangerous peaks, and quickly lowered his head and said, "Elder, the time is up. ”

Du Di'an's gaze withdrew from the information on the regional branches and numbers of the various professional grassroots personnel in the ninth district, looked up at Hawkeye, and said, "Are they all here?" ”

Hawkeye looked hesitant and said, "Elder, there are still seven people who have not arrived. ”

"Seven?" Dudian raised his eyebrows.

The total number of people in the meeting is only sixteen, and nearly half of them are not here at this moment?

"Okay." Dudian got up and said, "Write down the names of those who didn't come, and give them to me later." ”

Eagle Eye saw that Du Di'an's eyes were not good, and said: "Elder, you have just come to take over, they will inevitably want to put up a fight, if you get into trouble with them, the impact on our ninth district will be too great, in case they take refuge in other districts, the loss will be even greater, I hope you don't ...... impulsively."

Du Dian was just about to pass by him, but when he heard this, he stopped, his voice was indifferent, and said, "Please remember one thing, in my territory, no one can fight with me!" ”

Hawkeye was stunned.

Dudian had already strode out the door.

Hawkeye hurriedly turned to follow, leading Dudian in front, while secretly looking at the eyes on Dudian's mask, only to find that instead of the imaginary anger, he saw a pair of calm and deep eyes.

Under the guidance of Eagle Eye, Du Dian passed through the hall on the second floor, and came to a spacious room on the left, he could see eleven figures sitting in the room, five of which exuded the heat of a blazing flame all over their bodies, and the breath of the remaining six people was relatively dim, just slightly higher than that of normal people, however, the bodies of these six people were a little weird, and the heat of the bodies was unevenly distributed, two of them had extremely hot arms, but the body heat was very dull, and one of them had a red chest and average heat in the limbs.

"Elder, please." Hawkeye took the initiative to push open the door and said respectfully to Dudian.

Dudian entered the room, a sumptuous conference hall, decorated with gold and gold, including the tables and chairs for the meeting, all of which were made of expensive materials and made by a master craftsman.

As soon as the door opened, the laughter in the conference hall stopped abruptly, and everyone turned their heads, or raised their eyes, to look at Du Dian who was standing in the doorway, and when they saw the mask on Du Dian's face, some people frowned.

In the face of everyone's gaze, Du Dian was not nervous, although he knew that everyone present was the boss of the Dark Sect, and they were all "demons" on the side of the famous town outside, which was terrifying, but now he is no longer the immature child of a few years ago, when he obtained the achievements of the master of divine arts, he had seen all the masters of the temple, and he was able to deal with these occasions calmly.

He came to the conference hall to sit down, looked around, and said, "Hello everyone, meeting for the first time, I am the new elder, codenamed 'Demon King', I called you here today, I just want to chat casually." ”

"Demon King?" Hearing this undisguised domineering codename, everyone was stunned, and there was a trace of astonishment in their eyes.

Soon, a bewitchingly dressed woman sitting on a nearby chair immediately said, "Code name Demon King? Elder, do you know that among the elders of the twelve regions of our Dark Holy See, except for the three kings, no one dares to include the word 'king' in the code name, is it too flamboyant for you to do this? In case the Three Kings misunderstand, wouldn't our Ninth District become the target of public criticism? ”

"yes!"

"Elder, your code name is too provocative, change it!"

Two people next to him chimed in.

Du Di'an's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quietly waited for them to finish, and saw that no one else spoke again, so he said: "On the first day of meeting today, let me change my codename, is this your welcome ceremony?" ”

The faces of the three people who spoke before changed slightly, and the bewitching woman said: "Elder, you misunderstood, we don't mean anything else, it's just that your code name is too ostentatious, our ninth district is in the twelfth district, it is only of a medium level, if you cause the three kings to be unhappy, the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

Du Dian stared at her, and from the clothing, he could roughly tell that this woman was a great potion master, he smiled slightly, and said, "What is it like to be unimaginable?" ”

Seeing the thorns in his words, the bewitching woman couldn't help but look ugly, and said, "Elder, I'm just kind......"

"I know." Du Dian interrupted her, the smile in his eyes instantly became cold, he glanced at everyone, and said slowly: "I called you over today, just to chat a few casually, talk about the future positioning and development of our ninth district, I have only one goal, the strongest!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the conference room suddenly fell silent.

Everyone looked at Dudian in amazement.

"The strongest?" A middle-aged man next to him was stunned for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Elder, you have just taken office, and you may not know much about the situation here, our ninth district ......"

"I understand." Du Dian interrupted him and said, "I have already seen the situation in the ninth district, and I also know the information of the three kings. With our current ability, there is really no way to compete with the three kings, but we can develop and catch up, don't you want to keep looking at the faces of the three kings, and swallow your anger when you are plundered of resources, dare to be angry and dare not speak? ”

Hearing his words, everyone looked at each other, and from the last sentence alone, they knew that Dudian had indeed done his homework.

"Of course we want to, but how difficult it is to catch up with the Three Kings, with the resources and connections in our hands, even if they stagnate, it will take us ten years to catch up." Another old man next to him said helplessly.

"Not bad." The bewitching woman nodded and said to Du Dian: "Elder, since you said so, do you have any plans, if you just talk about it, it is better to say less about it, so as not to cause the wrath of the three kings, this is not something that our ninth district can bear." ”

Du Dian said indifferently: "The plan is very simple, just improve the course training of the academy, vigorously cultivate new five-star alchemists and great potions, and at the same time cultivate more dark knights." ”

Hearing this, the bewitching woman was stunned, and only after half a sound did she react, her eyes widened, and she said, "Elder, you, are you joking?" ”

Dudian said very seriously: "Isn't it? ”

The bewitching woman couldn't help but laugh and said, "Of course what you said is true, but the problem is that it takes time to cultivate a new five-star alchemist or a great potion master, or even a great fortune teller, and it will not take a few years to do it, even if you are lucky enough to meet some genius students, it will take seven or eight years to achieve something, we want to cultivate a new five-star alchemist, and it will be good to have two in ten years." ”

"Don't think about this too hard." Du Dian said indifferently: "I have my own way to do this, I called you here today, just to tell you that in the future, I hope you will carry out the tasks I will assign seriously, if the task fails due to personal reasons, the consequences are definitely not what you want to see." ”

"Humph!" A heavy cold snort suddenly sounded, and a middle-aged man wearing a black shoulder cloak sitting at the end of the conference table raised his eyes slightly, his rough face was full of sneers, and he looked at Du Dian coldly, and said, "Ignorance! I don't know how someone like you could be appointed as an elder, it's ridiculous! What do you think alchemists and potions masters are professions that you can learn if you want? Do you think that with the blessing of God, everyone can become the Dark Knight Captain? Ignorant! ”

Dudian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at him quietly.

"What, you're not convinced?" The middle-aged man's eyes were full of cold arrogance, and he looked directly at Du Dian, not afraid at all.

Du Dian knows where his confidence is, as a dark knight chief, he is definitely a high-level figure in the region to which he belongs, even the elder needs to be polite to him, otherwise he can defect to other regions at any time, although the defection will have a certain impact on his reputation, it is difficult to defect a second time, but after all, there is room for free choice.

Moreover, its own strength and influence, as well as the team of dark knights under its command, even if the elder orders his arrest, it is difficult to do so, which is what makes the dark knight chief awesome.

"Anything else?" Dudian Road.

The middle-aged man snorted coldly and said: "Come over today, I wanted to give you a little thin noodles, but I didn't expect that the new one was a pus, and his feet didn't stand firm, so he dared to call out to the three kings, full of boastful talk, I knew it was so, I might as well sleep at home, waste time!" ”

Dudian still just watched him quietly.

The middle-aged man saw that Du Dian was slow to talk, his face was a little unsightly, his eyes were even more gloomy, and he said, "What, don't you have anything to say?" ”

"Now that you're done, I'll talk about it." Du Dian said slowly: "You just said that it is very difficult to cultivate alchemists, and it is also difficult to cultivate dark knights, indeed, it is very difficult for you, otherwise the ninth district will not be just in the middle and lower position for so many years, but now, from today on, the ninth district is under my control, this is my territory, you only need to do the task I assigned, at most half a year, the ninth district will become the top five districts!" And I, too, will be the new king! ”

"I'm here for the words, you can choose not to believe it, but whether you believe it or not, I'll only say it once, if the task I gave me is not completed for personal reasons, or if I collude with other regions privately, I will not be lighthearted!"

Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised, including the bewitching woman and the middle-aged man, their faces changed slightly, but they didn't expect Du Di'an to be so angry.

The middle-aged man frowned, a little dissatisfied in his heart, but seeing Du Di'an's determined appearance, the sarcasm in his heart came to his lips, and finally he held back, after all, half a year passed quickly, if the newly appointed elder did not have a little confidence and no reason to say such a big thing, then he would lose his trust to everyone, and the elder would be in vain, and his prestige would be lost.

Such a consequence, he believed that Du Dian would definitely know, no matter what, it was also a person sent from above to serve as an elder, and this brain should have it.

"Elder, what are your plans?" The old man next to him asked curiously.

Du Dian said: "This is natural. ”

"Since you have already said this, Elder, let's believe you." The bewitching woman glanced at the audience and said to Du Dian.

There was not the slightest joy in Du Di'an's eyes, he turned around and said to Hawkeye next to him: "Is the list of people who didn't come written?" ”

"It's written." Hawkeye hurriedly handed it over respectfully.

Du Dian didn't answer, but said: "Don't look at it, everyone on this side has all been canceled from their positions." ”
