Chapter 580: Quentin's Ambition
Reed looked at the other party with some disdain, "In other words, you just wrote a blank check just to trick me." If you can lie to me once, you can also lie to me a second time, why should I believe you? β
"You can't say it's a lie, it's just a little strategy," the man touched his nose, "As for why you believe me, it's just that I'm Quentin. Carol. β
Hearing this name, Reed's pupils suddenly contracted, a name he had naturally heard.
Quentin. Kylo is the former Grand Director of the Penal Division, and the longest-serving person in this era of humanity, with 3.6 million years. And before entering the Penal Division, he also served as the warden of the Purgatory Gate for more than 1.5 million years.
This name is simply a legend, and it is rumored that this man has long been the strongest king, one of the most terrifying beings in the human camp. However, after retiring more than 800 years ago, he has not heard from this man again.
Such an inconspicuous man in front of him actually said that he was Quentin. Kylo, which makes Reed completely incredulous, thinks the other party is fooling him.
"Don't believe it, do you?" The man also seemed to see Reed's suspicions.
Reed was about to say something, but found that his surroundings had changed, and he had appeared in a courtroom where he had been in the port.
"This is my miniature world - the impartial court." Quentin said, snapping out the identification on his watch.

Quentin unabashedly revealed his identity to Reed.
Reed set off a monstrous wave in his heart, he didn't expect the other party to be the real Quentin. Carol. Although he knew from the beginning that it was unlikely that the other party would be fake, because in a position like the federal government headquarters, once exposed, it would be an act of looking for death. But really see Quentin. Kylo's identity number jΓΉ. Still a little scared.
"You really are"
"You believe it now, right?" The corners of Quentin's mouth lifted slightly.
"But why me?" Reed suddenly felt a little flattered.
"First of all, you are affectionate. The second point is that you have a clean background. The third point is that you have the supernatural powers of a gamer, and you are capable of doing the work I have given you. Quentin named three reasons for choosing Reed.
"Actually. I sent you that email, too, on purpose to see what kind of person you really are. And now, the results of the trial, I am satisfied. People who are willing to risk their lives for their friends are enough to show that you have a good character. β
After listening, Reed's originally tense feelings finally relaxed a little.
"Although I have not been in contact with the Council of Elders, I have heard some news. The Chief Elder fell under the Celestial Tribulation, and the Council of Elders is now divided into three camps. Compete for the top spot. But I haven't heard of any of the three camps headed by you. β
"That's because I don't belong to any of these three camps," Quentin answered calmly, "In fact, I have been in the House of Elders for more than eight hundred years, and I have not attended a single meeting of elders, and there are more than a hundred elders, and the total number of people who have met me in these eight hundred years or so adds up to less than three. Most people think I've fallen. β
"Then what are you going to do with people?" Reed had guessed this result when he asked the question. "To compete for the chief, you need not only strength, but also connections."
"Of course I know this, that's why I want your help." Quentin's slightly chubby face smiled again, and it was clear that this guy was already thick-skinned.
"Rely on me? In the presbytery, there was a random person. One finger can pinch me to death. Although Reed's strength has improved a lot, he also knows who the elders are, and if he gets in the way, he may be unaware of being eliminated.
"You don't have to worry about this, I'm here. No one dares to touch you. Quentin said this aggressively, and he continued, "Although I haven't been seen in the elders very often, with my prestige, I can poach some people. It's just that digging up the foot of the wall, doing it too directly is equivalent to slapping someone in the face. So, I need your help to make some plans for me to dig into the wall. I will provide you with the details of those in the Presbyterian Council, but I will tell you in advance that the information of these people is top secret and must not be disclosed to anyone except for your own view. Otherwise, I don't need someone else to send someone to hunt you down, I will be the first to kill you. β
Hearing this last sentence, a cold sweat oozed from Reed's back, "I understand this." β
These people in the Presbyterian Church used to be members of the highest level of the federal government, and the confidentiality of each person's information was extremely high, and they had permission to view it, and there were less than five fingers in the entire universe. Once it is accidentally leaked out and known by foreign races, it will cause a huge blow to the human camp.
Quentin Ken revealed this information to himself, obviously because he had great trust in himself, and on the other hand, it also showed that he was really eager to compete for the position of chief.
Reed knew that the other party had already divulged too much to himself, and there was no way back for him. He pondered for a moment, then asked again. "Are you sure that as long as you become the chief elder, you can help me rescue Guding?"
"If it were someone else, I guess there would be no good way, after all, the rules of the Purgatory Gate are there, and it is not easy to break. However, Guding is a demon of the era, and as long as he finds a suitable reason, his sentence can be cut short. Even, as long as he agrees to some conditions of the federal government, it is not impossible to be released directly. Quentin raised an eyebrow, not thinking it was difficult.
Reed kept his eyes on him as he spoke, and he could tell that the other party wasn't lying about it.
"If you have any other questions, let's ask. I'll try to tell you the truth. After asking, we officially started work. Quentin knew that Reed was unlikely to say no to him now, and he generously gave Reed the opportunity to ask questions.
"Why are you fighting for this chief position? It can't be for power, right? Reed felt that the motive for power was not valid, and the other party disappeared for more than eight hundred years, ignoring the affairs of the Presbyterian Church. Clearly not a rights-keeping person.
Hearing this question, Quentin stared at Reed for a long time before speaking, "I can tell you the reason, but what you heard next is completely buried in my heart and cannot be known to anyone else." β
"Hmm." Reed nodded hurriedly, and he could see Quentin's gaze become serious.
"The dream of every strongest king is to break through to the realm of the gods. I'm no exception. In the more than 800 years that I have disappeared, I have been trying to impact the Heavenly God Realm, but the result is that the impact has failed. But even if I fail, it is not without gain, and I found the reason why I can't hit the success, that is, I don't understand the rules enough. β
"As you should know, I've served as a warden at Hellgate before, and it's been for quite some time. And inside the gates of Purgatory. Imprisons a truly powerful depository. I was able to reach the strongest king because I was guided by his words. So. Now that I have found the crux of my inability to break through the gods, I hope to be able to enter the gate of purgatory again and visit that strong man, which is also the only chance for me to break through to the realm of the gods. β
"However, anyone who has served as a warden, or a keeper of the rank at the gates of Purgatory, will leave the gates of purgatory once they lose their position. After that, they will be denied entry by the Infernal Gate. Only the Human Leader and the Chief Elder have special privileges and can enter and exit the Gates of Purgatory at any time. I can't compete for the position of human leader, the responsibility is too heavy. β
"I have been the director of the Penal Division for many years, and I have seen too many dramas about power struggles, and I have long been not interested in rights. I'm vying for this chief position. Just to fight for a chance to become a god. And once I become a god, I can directly resign from the position of chief elder, and when the time comes, the chief elder will be whoever he likes, and it will have nothing to do with me. β
"In other words, you are only fighting for this position in order to break through to the gods." Reed frowned slightly when he heard this, "Then you leave, what do we who help you get?" β
Helping the other party fight for the position of the chief elder, many people must be hugging the chief elder's thighs, but listening to Quentin's statement, he is ready to pick his son and leave at any time. In that case, I'm afraid not many people will be willing to help.
"Don't worry, before leaving, I will definitely appoint a guy I trust to take this chief position, and you can just take refuge in that person when the time comes. When the time came, I arrived at the Heavenly God Cultivation and appointed a chief elder, and no one dared to say a word. Quentin also thought about the next steps.
"The people in the Council of Elders can take refuge in the Chief Elder, but in my capacity, I am afraid that I will become an outcast by then." Reed shook his head and smiled wryly.
"With your identity, it is true that you cannot enter the Council of Elders, to enter the Council of Elders, you must have enough qualifications and merits, even if I reach the realm of the gods, I can't change this rule." Quentin also nodded, "So, where do you want to go?" I can help pave the way for you. If you want to mix politics, my apprentice is now the chief of the Penal Division, and he can guarantee you a smooth journey. β
"I want to mix the military department." Reed shook his head and gave another answer.
"Although I haven't mixed with the military department, I also know some old friends, and I believe they will also give me a little thin noodles. However, the promotion of the military department will be stricter, not just the above sentence, but the accumulation of enough meritorious service. Quentin didn't expect Reed to make that choice.
"I'll earn the merit myself, I just hope that I can do what I want to do freely." Reed is clearly a very ambitious man.
"I see, that's it. You help me get the position of chief elder, and I will help you rescue Guding, and arrange a place for you in the military headquarters. Quentin said, holding out his hand, "Happy cooperation!" (To be continued......)
