Chapter 913: The Dragon Clan Elders' Council (First Praise)
Dragon's Nest is not a valley, but a collective name for a huge mountain range. Unlike the dragons of the Demon Dragon Island, the dragon nests in the Dragon Valley are all relatively close to each other, and the ethnic relationships are closer.
At the heart of the Dragon's Nest is the Peak of the Holy Spirit in the central mountains, a huge mountain to look up at, towering into the sky and looking imposing.
This is where the ruler of the Dragon Nest and the palace of the Dragon Emperor Pallgoris are located.
The palace of the dragon clan is completely different from the feeling of the elves who want to be beautiful and delicate to the hair, and it looks more majestic and ...... "popular".
The so-called "popular" is the feeling of the nouveau riche, even if every inch of the ground is a valuable treasure, it looks crystal bright, but I am afraid that people do not know that this is a valuable commodity in general, this is the consistent style of the dragon family.
In the palace, a regular meeting of elders is being held.
The convening of the Council of Elders is a major event for the Dragons, and under normal circumstances, it is held once every 5,000 years, and the Dragon Emperor and all the elders will attend, mainly to discuss the personnel changes of the Dragons and discuss the future development, as well as to vote on some important matters.
Personnel changes include the promotion of elders, the selection of elites, and so on, and today's conference has attracted the attention of more dragons than ever before, because it is said that this personnel change is an unprecedented big move.
Meria, the descendant disciple of the previous Great Elder Nirence and the current Great Elder, is likely to step down, not only that, but Meria has committed countless mistakes in the past 30,000 years as the Great Elder, which can be described as a bad deed, and will be judged by the Council of Elders, and if the crime is confirmed, the Great Elder is likely to face solitary imprisonment or even exile.
For the dragons of Dragon Nest. Although the Great Elder Meria sometimes seems to be very strong and domineering. Sometimes there are a lot of evil methods, which make many dragons complain, but as a great elder. Meria is definitely competent, I don't know how many times she has contributed to the maintenance and help of her clan over the years, and almost every dragon in the magic department in the entire Dragon Valley has received more or less guidance from her, and her prestige is extremely high.
This time, the most promising person to replace Meria as the Great Elder is Steinwell, who is a "newcomer" who was single-handedly promoted by Dragon Emperor Pallgoris after he ascended the throne, and his promotion speed is very fast. In just 20,000 years, he has become the second largest person in the Council of Elders, except for Meria--for the dragons, 20,000 years is really nothing, just like a guy who has no foundation and has been in politics for less than ten years. He actually held the important post of deputy prime minister.
In fact, everyone understands that behind Steinwell is the Dragon Emperor Bixia, and for generations, there has been a delicate balance between the Elders and the Dragon Emperor in the Dragon Valley, and the decision power of the Elder Council is sometimes constrained even by the Dragon Emperor. is somewhat similar to the relationship between the king and the parliament in Chen Rui's previous life, of course, this "king" has much more power.
The current Dragon Emperor Pargoris belongs to the type of eloquent and authoritarian. He has always wanted to remove this shackle and achieve his absolute rule, but when he first ascended the throne 20,000 years ago, his foundation was unstable. Therefore, the method of tenderness was adopted for the Council of Elders, and Laura's marriage was one of the means he used to entrap the Grand Elder Meria.
As a result, Lola actually ran away from marriage, and the elf king beat Peilin angrily. Meria is a very smart person, under consideration. Instead of calming the situation, it made the matter bigger. It is equivalent to taking the initiative to hand over the "handle" to the Dragon Emperor. Not only did he not blame Meria, but he also admitted the mistake of "messing with the mandarin duck score", and appeased Meria and his wife.
The result of this event was a win-win situation, Meria gained the trust of Pargoris, and the position of the Dragon Emperor was further secured. However, the power of the position of the Great Elder allows him to interfere with every major decree, and Meria's high prestige among the dragons has always been a matter of control to Pargoris.
As the saying goes, once a son of heaven is a courtier. For 20,000 years, Pallgoris has been cultivating his direct shili, and his cronies Stanwell are the representatives of this.
This time the Council of Elders was the time when Stanwell "showed his sword", to be precise, it was the Dragon Emperor Pallgoris who had been planning for 20,000 years.
After Meria, Bearing, and Groas arrived at the palace hall, the Council of Elders was officially convened.
First of all, the Dragon Emperor Pallgoris routinely summarized the development of the dragons in the Dragon Valley over the past five thousand years, and expressed his gratitude to the Council of Elders for their support.
After the Grand Elder Meria paid tribute to the Dragon Emperor on behalf of the Council of Elders, Stanwell was attacked, pointed at Meria with his halberd, and listed a series of crimes. Stanwell's attack was expected by the elders, in fact, everyone knew that those so-called "crimes" such as concealment and bullying, misconduct, enriching one's own pockets, and suppressing newcomers were partly caused by Meria's strength, but more of them were unexcused for the crimes they wanted to add.
"The evidence of these charges is conclusive, and many things have been heard and witnessed by everyone. I'll give you just one example," Stein Well, glancing at Bearing, "when Meria and Bearingn were married, Meria's daughter Lola ran away. Meria not only did not go to Peilin, but instead instigated her husband Spann to come to the door to commit murder, seriously injuring Peilin, and ransacking his wealth! This kind of domineering atrocity is simply outrageous! Elder Peilin, as a victim, you just need to say, is there such a thing?"
Peilin didn't dare to look at Meria, but nodded and said, "Yes." β
"Great Elder," Stanwell smiled slightly, "what do you have to say?"
Meria didn't even look at Stanwell, and her gaze fell on the Dragon Emperor Pallgoris: "Bixia, do you think so too?"
Pargoris shrugged his shoulders and smiled without saying a word.
"Stanwell, go on. Meria turned her head, looked at Stanwell, and said lightly.
Stanwell only felt that the two gazes of the Fairy Dragon Great Elder penetrated his soul like sharp arrows, he shivered slightly, did not dare to look directly, looked away, and then said, there are many "crimes" in the next that are false, and most of those true things are actually deliberately connived at Meria by Pargoris that day, but Meria did not explain, and Dragon Emperor Gelgoris never spoke.
Speaking of zuihou. Stanwell finally bared his fangs: "Meria is no longer fit to be the Grand Elder, and her actions are too bad. I suggest that she be imprisoned for 10,000 years or banished from the Dragon's Nest. Set an example. β
Whether it is solitary confinement or expulsion, it is the most serious punishment, and there is basically no possibility of reversing the situation. It seems that the Dragon Emperor is determined to bring down the Great Elder this time, but Meria's prestige is here, and these years are not only hard work, but also the credit cannot be buried. If they really want to be punished like this, the elders can't help but feel that their lips are cold and their teeth are dying, and for a while, there are many discussions.
βbixiaγ I have an urgent matter to report. After Stanwell finished speaking, Groas stepped out and said, "The Trials of Stormwind Island has been destroyed. β
"What?" said Pargoris, frowning, "who did this?"
Groos looked at Meria: "It's the son-in-law of Grand Elder Meria." β
Grois may seem aloof, but he is not a simple-minded man, and after the battle on Stormwind Isle, his first instinct was to block the news and forbid anyone to send messages to the Dragon Nest. Including bearings. And Meria and the others just happened to enter the palace at the right time to participate in the elders' meeting, which was also Groas's idea, in order not to give Stanwell time to prepare or respond, and now he took the initiative to "expose" this matter. Undoubtedly, retreat is advancing.
"It's Meria again!" Stanwell immediately jumped out and accused: "This place of trial is very important to the dragon clan, and it was originally one of Meria's few right decisions, but I didn't expect it to be ......"
"Wait. Palgoris heard a key question and directly interrupted Stanwell: "You just said. Her son-in-law?"
The elders also realized this, and the discussion suddenly became quieter. All eyes fell on Groas.
"Laura, she's back. Groas's next sentence shocked the audience: "She defeated Elder Bearings." β
"Lola...... Defeated Bearing?" Pargoris was taken aback, thinking he had misheard, "Are you sure it's Lola and not ...... Meria or Span?"
"Yes, it's Lola, and it's a complete defeat. Gloias glanced at Peilin, "Elder Peilin?"
Peilin felt everyone's surprised gaze, and wanted to find a hole to drill into, but the facts were in front of him, even if he fought with Lola again, it would only be more ugly, and he couldn't deny it at all, so he had to nod.
"Laura defeated him with the power of lightning that Elder Bearings is best at, don't laugh at Elder Bearings, if it is the same realm, whether it is me, Span or Meria, against Laura, it will be the same result as Elder Bearing!"
Stanwell was shocked, "What do you mean, Lola has reached the peak realm?"
"It's not just an ordinary pinnacle realm! At that time, I was in the Land of Trials to protect the dragons who participated in the trial, and I attacked her without knowing it, and the result was ......" Groas sighed and paused, "Laura actually received a heavy blow from me unscathed, and this matter, Elder Peilin, including all the dragon elites in this trial, can testify." Lola, the most remarkable genius of all races I have ever seen, there is no one!"
Peilin also nodded hurriedly on the side: Losing to the most outstanding is not a scandal, especially since Gloyas has admitted that he himself is not Lola's opponent in the same realm.
In just 20,000 years, he has reached the realm of the pinnacle realm! He is invincible in the same realm! And he can also fight beyond the ranks!
Three things that are almost "impossible", all concentrated in one person!
No wonder Gloyas used two words, the most remarkable genius!
Not to mention the elders, even Pargoris was moved, Stanwell didn't expect such a turn, and was stunned for a while.
"Meria, is this true?"
This effect was exactly what Meria expected, and Meria smiled indifferently: "Compared with other things, I am more happy to be reunited with my daughter." As for strength...... Laura is now outside the palace, and if Bixia doesn't believe her, she can be summoned immediately. β
"Good!" Pargoris nodded, "Groyath, bring Laura to the main hall immediately, I think, not only me, but all the elders are impatient to see the most outstanding dragon genius." (To be continued......)
PS: I had a meeting outside in the afternoon and slipped out early in the morning, ha.
