Chapter 614: Choice
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Now that Luo Sheng is a full-fledged member of the council, according to the regulations, Luo Sheng will choose to assume a position next, have you considered this aspect?" After laughing, Hatchell asked Luo Sheng with a solemn expression.
The official members of the Nine Rings Council can have such a large authority and so many benefits, and naturally they also have to bear considerable responsibility. In fact, every official member of the Nine Rings Council must undertake a major business of the organization and make sufficient contributions to the Nine Rings White Tower. And every once in a while, the parliament will also evaluate the contribution of the councillors, and the councillors who have not served the organization for a long time may even be stripped of their status.
However, generally speaking, the pinnacle masters of the Golden Rank who can become official members of the Nine Rings Council are basically from the disciples of the legends, and they are the successors cultivated by the White Tower of the Nine Rings. Therefore, in terms of professional requirements, the parliament is not harsh, and the members themselves have great autonomy. Except for some emergencies, the council will directly recruit members of the council level to go to the town to carry out combat missions, most of the time, councillors can choose the tasks they want to be responsible for. Especially for people like Luo Sheng, who have made special contributions before and won the favor of Kunnier, they have more freedom when choosing their positions. Basically, as long as it's not too outrageous, it's accepted.
Of course, for a newcomer like Luo Sheng, it is also very important to choose his own position for the first time. Choosing a suitable position is not only conducive to one's own cultivation and promotion, but also greatly improves the council's evaluation of individuals, which is very beneficial to enhancing one's influence in the council in the future. After all, at the level of formal parliamentarians, there is not much difference in combat effectiveness and personal connections, and whether they can stand out depends to a large extent on whether they can make a big enough contribution to their positions.
And if Luo Sheng made a mistake in choosing the first position, did nothing in office, or even made a major mistake, then things would be in trouble. Not only will it greatly reduce the personal evaluation of Luo Sheng by the core layer of the Nine Rings White Tower, but it is also likely to have some adverse effects on Quinir, who strongly recommends Luo Sheng to take the position.
After all, not everyone is satisfied with the current situation in which Quinnir is almost in power. Although factions like Maximi, Addison, and Deborah don't say it, they may not have the idea of letting Quinil lose points in order to increase the influence of their factions. Once Luo Sheng makes a mistake, it is likely to cause a series of internal turmoil. So when this question was mentioned, Hatchell's expression was quite solemn.
"I did think about it. As a newcomer, if I directly intervene in those duties that were originally divided, it is easy to cause conflicts, so it is better to choose a project that no one is responsible for. And my territory happens to be in Hokuriku, so I want to choose to be in charge of Hokuriku, what do you think, senior brother?" Luo Sheng responded very calmly.
As the core leadership of the Nine Rings White Tower, the official members of the Nine Rings Council are second only to several legendary bigwigs, because of their amazing power and status, they don't have many choices when it comes to really doing things. Basically, there are only two directions, either in charge of an important project in the Isle of Truth, such as Hatchell, who is now in charge of assisting Quinir in preparing for the Tree Legion, or going out to sit on one side, such as Bunir, who has a good relationship with Rason and is now in charge of the Elson Kingdom.
Of the two options, staying on the Island of Truth is safe, stable, and not stressful, like Hatchell, who can have a lot of time to devote to his own cultivation in addition to normal research. If you choose to go out, it is a combination of pressure and profit. For example, Bunir, who is now sitting in the Elson Kingdom, is responsible for handling all affairs related to the White Tower of the Nine Rings in the Elson Kingdom and the surrounding area as a member of the Nine Rings Council. Although facing many challenges such as royal power, nobility, and the Holy See of Light, the power and resources in his hands are amazing.
For Rasen, it was not realistic to stay on the Isle of Truth and join an important research project. After all, these important projects require a great deal of expertise. Although Luo Sheng's personal strength is not bad, he is still far behind in professional research. Even the Treant Legion, the project most closely related to the druid's profession, is far from being compared to someone like Harchel who has been studying for many years. If he joins by force, it will not only affect Hatcher's interests, but also he will not be able to give full play to Rasson's strengths, and the growth he will get will be limited, so Rasheng can only choose to go out and sit on one side.
However, although Luo Sheng has now obtained the qualification to sit on the side, there are not many places to choose to sit in the town. In recent years, although the White Tower of the Nine Rings has greatly expanded its sphere of influence, quickly mastered the coastal countries of the Northland, and produced a lot of chassis, in the process of expansion, positions like Bunier who sit on one side and have rich oil and water have basically been allocated. After all, in order to control those newly acquired spheres of influence, it is inevitable to send powerful official councilors to take charge, and without the suppression of these masters, the rule of the Nine Ring White Tower in these areas will soon become rootless duckweed. Now there are no parliamentarian-level figures left, only a few marginal areas of little significance.
Therefore, without being prepared to directly clash with other parliamentarians because of this kind of interest issue, choosing Hokuriku, which is now unpopular and not valued by others, is the best choice for Rason, who has a sprout collar.
"Running Hokuriku? That's a sound choice. Hatchell was slightly stunned, then a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he nodded slightly.
Luo Sheng chose to run Hokuriku, on the one hand, to avoid conflicts of interest with other parliamentarians and factions, which can be regarded as a kind of humility, which is conducive to Rasen, a newcomer, and other parliamentarians to build a good relationship. On the other hand, because everyone doesn't pay much attention to Hokuriku, even if Luo Sheng can't make any big achievements, he won't be attacked, which can be said to be the safest choice.
"Then Luo Sheng, do you need any support? As long as we can deploy it on our side, I will try to deploy it for you. After affirming Rason's choice, Hatchel asked with a smile.
Among the more than 30 members of the Nine-Ring Council, only Hatchell and Rashon are druids, and theoretically speaking, Rashon is the most likely to have a conflict of interest with Hatchell. Rason's choice to run Hokuriku is not only to avoid conflicts of interest with other parliamentarians, but also to express his attitude of not competing with Hatchell for interests. In return, Hatchell naturally has to fully support Rason's work.
"Then I won't be polite to you, senior brother. I need twenty silver-tier druids, as well as all the research materials of Purple Bloodwood, and whether or not I can make a name for myself in Hokuriku depends on these. Luo Sheng said with a smile.
