Chapter 235: The Third Episode of the Southwest—Siga
The Magician Association, the Sijia Branch, the vacant position of president, was finally recommended by the Council of Fourteen, and the great magician Hydera Kunnishi, who belonged to the Qingzhuang faction among the members of the council, received the support of the most magicians in the election of the Five Cities, and successfully took over as the president.
There were of course some unexpected episodes, especially the 'Assassins' from the Cadiz Order.
The assassin here is not referring to the assassin, but to the person who sniped at the throne of the president of the Siga district. It was a veteran great magician in the Siga district, with a lot of prestige. But his idea is that the four districts of the Southwest Peninsula will develop peacefully and equally.
Perhaps not many people know how much oil and water the former president used to squeeze the Cadiz district by using the puppet candidates. But after all, because it was obtained from the interests of the Cadiz district, it did not directly benefit most magicians, so the words that won sympathy and peaceful development were still quite marketable.
In fact, it is the so-called applause, who will easily let go of the meat in their mouths. Even if it's not yourself who bites the meat, it's just your own person. But as long as that piece of meat is not cut from oneself, it is better to be cheaper for oneself than for outsiders.
Therefore, before the undercurrent of the Cadiz branch arose and completely broke free from the control of Sija, the new president smoothly took over most of the forces left by the former president. However, it was not entirely without losses, and the other two sub-districts co-opted many of the forces that originally belonged to Sija before the new president of Sija district was elected.
The wrestling between the four divisions under the table, with the appointment of the new president of Xijia District, launched a new wave of confrontation.
As for the chief inspector who was originally the most favored and should be the strongest in Siga right now, not considering a certain departing lich, Grand Wizard Greenwyn, did not fight for the throne of the president. Although it is said that the president and even the various positions in the branch are occupied by the strong, but the strong must also have the will, and there are still many people who do not want to be tied up by secular affairs.
But the person who will become the ombudsman is not the kind of person who is cold to power. Greenwyn didn't want the position of president, he wanted something else.
Back a few days ago, the place where the chairmanship was discussed under the table was the original dining room on the first floor of the Great Sage Tower, which was also the largest room in the Great Sage Tower, and was converted into a conference room during the confrontation with the Abyssal Gate. There were 14 participants.
After the death of the former president, the candidate to be added to the Council of Fourteen is the former president of the Orange Fruit Eaton's student chief, Chuckweis. But he didn't rely on the former president's student, or the identity of the heir to the power. The reason for being able to sit in the Council of Fourteen is because he is the tower master of the Great Sage's Tower.
Just like Wulian City, the tower owners of the five magic towers are all qualified to attend. In the past, the Demon Lord fell at the gate of the abyss, and after Shuleon was killed at the gate of the Middle Tower, if there is anyone in the current Xijia District who no one dares to offend, the tower owner of the Great Sage Tower is definitely the first.
Seeing the status of the tower master of the Great Sage now, everyone couldn't help but think of the former tower master who let all this go in vain. Should I feel sorry for his regrets, or should I rejoice in his stupidity? Anyway, the one left.
Someone died, someone left. Those who are alive, those who remain, must move on. Therefore, a group of elders who hold the real power of the Sijia District Council, in addition to coming to the Tower of the Great Sage and giving the same power to this tower master, they also have to decide who will be the next president.
Since the development of the southwest of the country, it has a history of more than 200 years. Since the establishment of the Xijia Branch, there have been 16 presidents. The vast majority of the president's successors are produced in a way that the four tower owners come forward to compete, and the winner enters the middle tower. The vacant tower is then succeeded by a person who has both ability and virtue.
But the sixteenth president, Orange Fruit Eaton, was too good at staying up, and the other four tower masters were powerless to succeed as president. Although the Wizards' Guild is a loose organization, the powerful figures in each district are definitely not idle. If you really want to do it seriously, it is not impossible to die of overwork.
Now that the four tower lords have withdrawn from the competition, the rest of the people are in terms of prestige, and everyone is among them; In terms of power, although there are superiority and inferiority, the difference is not far behind. Only personal strength, Grand Wizard Greenwin, as the chief inspector, and the sharp knife of Xijia District, do the most difficult errands, and fight the most troublesome opponents.
In the face of such an opponent, no magician dares to say that he is sure of victory. Even if you use your own hole cards, the other party has no hole cards to lift.
In particular, Greenwin and the current tower owner of the Great Sage's Tower, Chuckweis, because of the relationship between Orange Fruit Eaton in the past, the two faintly became allies.
Even if Greenwin didn't completely take over all the forces of the former president, no one would have the confidence to slap the table with him just because of the Great Sage's Tower standing behind him. This tower is too ferocious.
"Don't worry, I don't want to compete for the chairmanship."
This was after the Lord of the Four Towers once again expressed his idea of not succeeding, and everyone focused on Greenwin, so he had to take a stand. The first sentence he said was also shocking. It's just that such a headless declaration is even more worrying. So he didn't sell it either, and continued:
"I hope that whoever succeeds as president will support me in taking over the role of Head of Orange Eaton College. At the same time, the Charlie Richarder Fund can also support the operation of the college. ”
At the power table, the most afraid of encountering people has no desires. But as long as there is something to ask, there is room for negotiation. Greenwin's request is acceptable to anyone who is willing to compete, but it doesn't mean they can understand. Greenwyn shrugged his shoulders and said:
"I just don't want the old man's name to stink like that. And the academy incident, no one thinks it's a bad thing. Since it's not a bad thing, someone has to come out and do it well. Instead of letting some bastard stuff fool around. ”
Speaking of his teacher, Chuckvis changed his previous indifference and expressed his agreement. This point naturally made Greenwin's requirements more sufficient. As far as the power of the entire district is concerned, the academy is only a very insignificant part, and it is not guilty of fighting against the most capable combination in Sijia District for the sake of petty profits.
So the president is contested by the rest. Although it was only a contest within the Council of Fourteen, it had to be voted on by all the magicians in Siga. However, in the past, as long as it is a candidate recommended by the Parliament, it is a sure thing to become the chairman. Therefore, people who are willing are actively courting each other and exchanging benefits.
Chuckvis sat in the corner of the conference room with Greenwyn and chatted in a low voice. The focus is, of course, on that academy. "Can the academy still be saved? Get Trippwood back? He asked with concern.
"Don't count on that one back, he has some reason to stay in Siga. If it's me, there's only one reason to turn back. ”
The former president, a proud protégé from a merchant family, is not a young man who doesn't understand the world. Hearing Greenwyn mention the only reason for this, he immediately thought of it. "Is it the Tower of the Great Sage?"
"Of course. So many people took so many things from him, and finally forced him away. He also understands that if he doesn't leave, his life will be taken away in the end. If you want to persuade him to come back, in addition to giving him a clear guarantee, even if you can't give him everything back, you must return the most precious one. The only one that meets all the conditions is this tower. ”
"Then return the Great Sage's Tower to him, okay?" Chuckvis looked a little tired. He asked instinctively, but didn't know what the answer would get.
Seeing this, Greenwin asked rhetorically, "Did you encounter any difficulties?" ”
With a wry smile, Chuckvis said, "Maybe ask me what I can solve, and I can say a few more words." I don't understand this tower at all. Pointing to the sky, he actually refers to the fact that he is now staying in the core room on the third floor, some of his cronies and apprentices, and a few people who are not very talented in magic, but who are quite experienced in learning the P language, are studying this magic tower together.
Sighing, Chuck said earnestly, "Although I have found some people to study the procedures at the bottom of the Great Sage's Tower. But no matter what fame that group of people came up with, I still don't understand, I don't understand what they understand, and I don't know if they are doing something behind their backs. If there is, it is only a covert shift of dominance to that group of people. I still can't fully grasp it. ”
Patting the somewhat depressed young man, Greenwin understood the feeling of powerlessness. But unfortunately, he didn't have a good solution. And the discussion of the successor of the president will also come to an end. In the end, it will be Hydra Kunnich who will come out on top, and he will also receive a joint statement and support from the 14-member parliament.
Return to Wulian City, regardless of whether the new president has fulfilled his original promise very happily. Greenwin, who had won the letter, began to run and prepare everything needed for the new Orange Fruit Eton College.
Among them, the most important person is Elihuber, who originally left the academy but is still staying in Siga district.
In fact, this fat man was old Eton's subordinate from the beginning; Sent to the academy, both for surveillance and for protection. But since the death of the elder, Elihuber has a vague intention of staying away from the power of the former president.
In fact, people with such an attitude account for the majority of the former president's forces. Because these people have all received the favor of Orange Fruit Eaton, and they use it for their use, not a combination of interests. Now that the benefactor has passed away, and he has not left a serious heir, it is normal for him to regain his free body. In fact, Greenwyn himself could be counted among such people.
Because of Eli Huber's identity, Greenwin has dealt with this one several times. When we met again, Greenwin said a few polite words and went straight to the point.
"You want me to be the dean of the academy?" Eli Huber was surprised by Grand Wizard Greenwin's proposal. originally thought that this person was coming to be a lobbyist for someone, but he brought up something that couldn't be beaten.
Greenwin nodded and said, "Running a school is a good thing worth doing. And you're the only one who stays, the only one who has been watching from the founding of the Academy. The task given to you by the president must have been to observe and record the actions of that one. I hope you can use that experience to help me, and I will be taking on the role of Head of the College myself. Don't ruin the place that was built in his name. ”
After thinking about it for a while, Elihuber said: "There is only one condition, anyway, the group of children who originally stayed in the academy have already entered the door, so there is no need to recruit them back." Leave the opportunity to other children. ”
The reason is high-sounding, but how could Greenwin not know that the fat man in front of him was a little resentful about what happened at the beginning. So he held out his hand and agreed, "I agree, it's reasonable." ”
Eli Huber shook Greenwin's hand, smiled like a flower blooming on his face, and said, "That's great, let's work together." ”
