Chapter 15: Misguided (8)
Early the next morning, after the Battle Mage Regiment officially went to the administration building to ask Bernice to withdraw from the competition, and quickly announced that they had joined Angel's camp......
The situation has entered a certain stalemate.
Will the powerful Silent Spellcaster announce its withdrawal?
Will Angel, who has already united a large number of forces, withdraw?
Will the old vascular tubes that are not afraid of boiling water be withdrawn from the dead pigs? Of course not.
Will Gaozong, who values face above all else, withdraw?
It's a stalemate, an absolute stalemate.
Around noon, Bernice summoned all four student leaders for a second, crucial second meeting.
......
At 1:20 p.m., Qili of the Silent Spellcaster arrived.
Her face was a little haggard, and her eyes were deep. The strands of hair were slightly cocked, and they looked very embarrassed.
At one twenty-three o'clock, Aurora's from the High Sect Society arrived.
It still looks so elegant, except that the corners of the clothes are stained with some dirt. His face was full of anger.
At 1:24, the president of the old maintenance council, Jarvis, arrived.
The face is calm and the demeanor is low-key.
At one twenty-nine o'clock, finally, Angel arrived.
The same face is calm. The difference was that he walked in front of everyone with his head tilted slightly. The pace was clean and clean. A pair of eyes as if they have seen through everything, extremely calm.
At this moment, he seems to have become the focus of everyone.
Twenty-four hours ago, when Angel first appeared in front of them, he was at the bottom of the nine contenders, but at least in terms of strength, he would never be considered a serious contender.
The others were institutions with a long history, and he's just a bunch of people who have a patchwork of people in his hands.
However, reality is always unexpected, and life is always full of ups and downs. This is true for both the Blood Elves and the Humans.
Twenty-four hours, nothing can happen, things can happen that you can't count, and earth-shaking changes can happen. This is called the thickness of time.
For twenty-four hours, Angel worked non-stop, one action after another...... He was the only one of them who saw this contest as a war. Yes, the only one. He was extremely serious, as if he would lose his life if he failed. He is pervasive, scheming, and energetic.
So, what was set in front of everyone was Angel's, which belonged to Angel, and it was extremely thick and extremely thick for twenty-four hours.
Twenty-four hours ago, almost every contender could ignore him and look down on him, but now, anyone must be wary of him. Or...... It is more suitable with a fear.
Qili looked at Angel with a stunned gaze.
Aurora looked at Angel with disgust.
Yalves looked at Angel with a wary and hesitant gaze.
All eyes were on Angel, who just stood quietly, quietly facing the closed wooden door of the conference room.
The posture was so upright that everyone else felt as if they had been neglected.
"Don't you wonder what they're thinking?" the devil whispered.
"Not curious, but I enjoy it. For the first time, I felt jealous and hated...... It's such a enjoyable thing. Angel replied quietly.
"Hahahaha, it's really a thing to enjoy. Especially when the other party hates you and can't do anything about you, they can only watch you move forward little by little, until they trample him under their feet. In fact, if you are interested, I can also take you into some new areas. For example, crying. You know, fear, crying, sadness, despair, are all great emotions. Of course, I mean when it appears to someone else. Do you want me to help you open a new world?"
"For the time being...... No, you don't. ”
"Okay, I'll let me know when you need to. ”
The four of them stood silently, waiting.
At about 1:40 a.m., the door to the conference room opened, and a staff member from the Academic Affairs Department came out.
"Aurora, please come in. ”
"Me?" Aurora froze.
"Yes. The clerk smiled sweetly.
Glancing towards the others, Aurora took her wand and stepped inside.
The door to the conference room was closed.
"Why did she go in first, did she do a better job than we did?"
However, Angel ignored her and just continued to stand quietly. Jarvis was even more silent.
Ten minutes later, the door to the conference room opened again. Aurora walked out, glared at Angel, and walked away in a huff.
Yes, just left.
The three people waiting outside the conference room quietly squinted their eyes and watched her leave.
It's still the same staff. This time, she reached out and opened the door to the conference room completely, then stepped aside, smiled and said, "Guys, come in." ”
"Hehe, Aurora is out. Qili couldn't help but laugh and walked into the conference room.
Jarvis glanced at Angel and stepped along.
It wasn't until the other two had gone in that Angel let out a slow breath and walked into the conference room.
......
"You're all excellent, in fact, I don't even know what to choose. From your performance, we already have a relatively clear understanding of your strength. ”
This time the layout of the conference room was changed to two rows of tables. One row is the only three remaining contenders, and the other row is the "examiner". Bernice sat directly across from Angel and said, "Qili, you have the widest network in the school, you can mobilize the most people, and your strength is also the strongest of everyone. We've seen that. ”
Qili smiled sweetly.
"Arvis, as the president of the old Maintenance, you have inherited everything from the Old Maintenance. Procedurally, it is the most satisfying and impeccable. As for Angel......" Turning her gaze at Angel, Bernice smiled and said, "Your personal ability is what we admire the most. He is also the most diligent and effective student leader. We are amazed at what you have done. ”
Angel slowly closed his eyes, then nodded slightly in response, and opened them again.
Taking a deep breath, Bernice continued, "You're all very good, but only one of you can become the new president of the Vascular Council. And no matter what kind of choice we take, there is actually a certain degree of unfairness to the other two people. So, we discussed it for a long time and finally came to a decision. ”
All of a sudden, the three remaining contenders all looked at Bernice with their eyes slightly wide.
All eyes in the conference room were on Bernice.
The most, most important thing is coming!
The entire conference room was silent, except for the gentle blowing of the wind, and the rustle of the leaves of the sacred tree could be heard in the distance.
After a long pause, Bernice whispered, "We need your union." Yes, joint. Any two parties will join forces to obtain the position of the new Guardian Council President. Any two parties. But there will only be one president of the maintenance committee. You know what I mean?"
The three contenders all stared blankly at Bernice, as if they hadn't reacted yet.
Bernice continued, "Or to put it another way. When either of you is willing to submit to the other, then the other side will be elected as the new President of the Conservation Council. Wouldn't that be clearer?"
Angel's eyes widened and he nodded slightly.
After a moment's hesitation, Kiri and Jarvis nodded their heads.
"This may sound like a bit of a vexatious request, but in fact, it was our decision. Bernice spread her hands helplessly and said, "This task is very heavy, very heavy, and we hope to achieve it all at once." None of you are strong enough for us to believe that you can achieve it. So, what we're asking for is an organization that has the traits of either of you. For example, Angel's personal ability is combined with beautiful connections. For example, the combination of beautiful connections and the execution of the old vascular committee. Or maybe Angel's personal competence is combined with the execution of the old Vascular Committee. Of course, there is only one president, and whoever becomes the president is a matter for you to discuss. ”
As she spoke, Bernice slowly stood up on the table, "I'll give you enough time to think about it, just give me the answer before five o'clock in the afternoon." You can consult here, or go back and consult with your partners, that's fine. Come on!"
Clapping her hands slightly, Bernice turned and walked away with the other members of the Academic Affairs Department.
The door closed quietly, and only Angel, Kiri, and Jarvis were left in the conference room. Quietly, so quiet that there was not a single sound.
All three remained motionless, holding their breath in unison. The eyes moved from side to side, deliberately staggering each other. At the same time, everyone's brain is spinning rapidly.
This is the final decisive moment.
A bird landed on the windowsill, pecked at the potted plant on the windowsill, turned its head and flapped its wings and flew away.
The three of them remained motionless.
Time ticked by.
For an hour, for a whole hour, they sat like that.
An hour later, Yalves slowly stood up and walked up to Kiri, but his gaze was on Angel. He whispered to Qili, "Let's unite. I have only two demands, and the president's allowance is five thousand, of which two thousand must be given to me. I am the vice president. Also, kick all of Guggill's men out of your team. ”
As if awakened, Qili looked at Jarvis in some surprise: "No...... No, I can't. He's part of my team and I can't leave him behind on the eve of a win. Neither would anyone else agree. ”
"But I don't want to work with him. Before Qili could answer, Yalvis looked at Angel with a smile again: "Or, Angel, you can propose more favorable terms." For example, on the other hand, I am the president and you are the vice president. The subsidy of three thousand shall be mine, and the two thousand shall be yours. What do you think?"
Angel slowly looked up and looked at the smiling Jarvis with some surprise.
"It's time to bargain, hey, hey, hey. The devil muttered quietly, "You should take advantage of this opportunity, and perhaps speak of a good joint condition." Negotiation should be what you do best, and I have a lot of confidence in you. ”
Silence, silence for a long time.
After a moment, Angel replied, unexpectedly, with a smile, "Yes." ”
All of a sudden, not only Qili was stunned, but even Jarvis, and even the devil were stunned.
For a moment, Jarvis didn't even know what to say next.
"Wait!" Qili quickly stood up and shouted, "For...... Why don't you ask my opinion? I can also make you vice president, and I can also give you a subsidy of 2,000! No, I can give you a subsidy of 2,500 and we will divide it equally!"
Angel glanced at Qili lightly and said softly, "I think it's more appropriate for me to join forces with the president." ”
As he spoke, in Qili's stunned gaze, Angel turned his head to look at Jarvis: "President, I think you are suitable to be the president after all." In fact, I never wanted to be president myself. ”
Yalvis was stunned, staring blankly at Angel with a tired face.
Bowing his head slightly, Angel took a deep breath, and then said: "Actually, it doesn't matter who is the president, and the subsidy is not so important. If we continue to stalemate here, then tonight, our partners will definitely have to sleep out again. They are all good and should not be treated this way. I just want to hurry up and get it over now. ”
"But I can also give you the same conditions!" Qili hurriedly shouted: "Even, better conditions than him!"
"You can't give it. Angel said flatly: "There are too many people under your command, I know how much money can be given to the new maintenance committee, and if it is evenly divided, everyone will only get a little." I have a responsibility to the people who support me and I have to make sure that they get the best treatment I can get. At the same time, I also hope that the chaotic state of the magic academy will end soon, so that everyone can return to normal study life as soon as possible. ”
Qili was stunned.
Not only Qili, but Yalvis was also stunned.
Looking at Jarvis, Angel continued: "So, President, I don't want any vice president position, and I don't even want a subsidy of two thousand. None of this is what I want. The answer I hope to get is that you treat everyone who supports me as equally, just as the original members of the Vascular Council who supported you. I hope they all become members of the new Vascular Council. ”
"End...... No problem at all. ”
"And. I want to maintain the original system of the Vascular Society, which Bernice wants, and a kind of protection for those who support me. ”
"Same ......" Jarvis licked his somewhat dry lips and replied softly, "I fully accept your idea. What else?"
These two articles must be notarized by Bernice. ”
"No problem at all, what else?"
"No more. ”
"No?" Jarvis was a little relieved.
"Yes, no. Angel slowly stood up, then smiled and said to Jarvis, "If you agree, I will go back now and inform my friends of my announcement of my withdrawal, and at the same time, prepare to enter the list of new maintenance councils." ”
"End...... Totally agree!" Jarvis replied hesitantly, "No problem! I will agree to all your requests!
The victory came so suddenly, and it was probably a little difficult for him to accept for a while. Originally, he just wanted to negotiate a good condition and a good price. Who knows...... Eat it all?
"Okay, then you talk, I'll go back first. See you here at five o'clock. ”
With that, Angel turned around and walked away.
Behind him, Jarvis had an unconcealed ecstasy on his face, and Kiri was completely stunned.
As he stepped out of the door of the conference room, the devil whispered, "Are you crazy? With the chips in your hand, you can talk about conditions that are a hundred times better than this!"
"Yes, but that's not what I want. Angel replied lightly.
