Chapter 67: The Great Sage
Sunlight shines in the conference room, gilding the conference room, and the tall floor-to-ceiling glass reflects a panoramic view of the imperial capital, which is a great view.
When Victor entered the room, he felt like he was back on Earth, and saw that the study was built in a modern architectural style. With white walls, light tubes scattered in all directions, marble floors, and collapsible chairs, the conference rooms that Victor saw on Earth were almost identical to those of this place.
There's a smell of the 21st century here.
"Hughes, what's the matter, just say it!" A middle-aged man spoke at the round table, he was none other than the leader of the Alchemy Guild, Hill Tyrone.
"Elder, this is Victor Corleone, who is from Tirisfa, and he has brought bad news that the county town of Tirisfal has now been taken over by the Church. Hughes nodded, and opened his mouth to explain the matter directly.
"What? Something happened to Tirisfa, sit down, sit down, speak slowly. Listening to Hughes's words, the elder's face changed, and he was also shocked.
Hughes and Victor sat down, and together they told the story.
After hearing what they said, the elder lit a cigar, and he took a deep breath and began to think about it.
After a long while, he spoke, his brows furrowed, and he asked in a low voice, "Hughes, does the old king know about this?"
According to the normal situation, this kind of thing is known to the king first, and now, the royal court does not know about it, and it is not good for President Tailong to act alone.
"Elder, Victor has just arrived in the Imperial Capital, and no one else knows about this matter except for me and you. Hughes rubbed his hands together and whispered.
"Don't tell anyone else about this first, you and I just need to know about this matter, and let's talk about it after next week's affairs!" Next week is the annual "Audit Day", and President Tailong is also very embarrassed.
"I see. Please rest assured. Hughes stood up and bowed respectfully.
The day of the review is the day of the audit of the high-level leaders of the Alchemy Guild, and all the high-ranking members of the Isis family will come, and if the elders of the Isis family know about this, President Tyrone is likely to be impeached, not to mention the dissatisfaction of the head of the family and the patriarch.
The Isis family is not a word, all the affairs of the family are decided by voting, and President Tyrone is a candidate for patriarch, so he doesn't dare to release the news at this juncture.
"Hughes, is there anything else?" the president took a puff and extinguished the cigar.
Seeing that Hughes had no intention of leaving, President Tyrone also guessed that he still had something to say.
"Allow me, President, to introduce you to one person, and that is him, the creator of the Alcohol Elixir and the Seventeen Horn Inscription Array, Victoria Corleone. Master Hughes stood up, and pointed a finger at Vidor, who gave him a brief introduction.
"Is he the creator of the ethanol potion and the seventeen-horn inscription array?" Tai heard this, Chairman Long frowned slightly, but after the council, he couldn't help but smile. His three points of laughter were an accident, and a seven point was a surprise, he really didn't expect Vidor to be so young.
Seeing that President Tyrone smiled, and Master Hughes also smiled with him, Hughes couldn't help but show a little embarrassment on his face.
"Victor, the ethanol potion you made is very useful, now that the entire imperial capital has been popularized, it will definitely be popularized in more places in the future, this ethanol potion should not have been approved yet!"
The high-grade potions invented and made by the people of the Isis family can get Isis points, which Master Charles did not know, and Master Hughes never mentioned it to Vidor.
"Victor's ethanol potion hasn't been approved yet, but I've already declared it for him, and it should be reviewed next month!" With that, Master Hughes motioned to Victor, and he raised his hand.
Victor understood, and he hurriedly stood up.
"I'm afraid you still have a big thing to say today! Don't sell it, just say it!" Both of them stood up, and the elder also understood that this matter was asking him.
"Hello, Elder, I'm Victor Corleone, I'm from Tirisfa, I heard about the mission at the Nightmare Circus, and I want to serve the goddess Isis. After a brief introduction of himself, Victor took a deep breath and spoke out about his mission.
After listening to Vidor's words, President Tyrone frowned slightly, he had already guessed that the matter was not small, but he really didn't expect that it would be a missionary matter, the Isis family has not had a missionary for decades, and the word mission is almost forgotten by him.
"You two sit down first! Let me think!" Missionary work was not as simple as Victor had imagined, and the stakes were so high that even President Tyrone could not decide lightly.
"The Scepter, the Sealkeeper, the Great Sage, what kind of missionary do you want to be, Victor?" President Tyrone did not ask about Victor's alchemy, nor about his status, but asked such a strange sentence.
"What is the Rod Bearer, what is the Sealkeeper, what is the Great Sage, and how many names are there for the Missionary?" said Victor.
"Whew. According to the rules of the family, only a magician or a grandmaster-level alchemist with a strength of more than the sixth order can take on it, if you want to be a staff bearer, then wait until you reach the sixth order!" To put it bluntly, the staff bearer is the "goddess's scepter", and the scepter is a weapon of the gods, not a divine weapon, where is it worthy of the staff of the gods. In the Isis family, the status of the Scepter is as high as that of the candidate patriarch.
There are three types of preachers, as if there are big gods, small gods, and streets.
"The Seal Protector, also known as the Guardian, has no cultivation and alchemy level requirements, only one requirement, to join the Isis family for more than two hundred years, if you want to be a Seal Protector, then wait for more than a hundred years. "In the Isis family, the Seal Protector is the highest in status, on par with the patriarch. Three hundred years ago, Master Isu, the god of dragon-blooded war, was the protector of seals.
"Victor, do you know what a great sage is?" Speaking of the great sage, President Tai Long was "sold".
"Hughes, explain it to him! I haven't heard about a mission for decades, and I should encourage him if he wants to preach, but there are some things that are simply unsustainable!"
The Great Sage is the most "wonderful" existence in the Isis family, which is a rule set by the first generation of patriarchs, not by the goddess Isis. The first patriarch was a descendant of the goddess Isis, whose faith in the goddess was unmatched, and he followed the same missionary route that he followed, which was much more difficult than the other two.
"Victor, you should know that the first generation of the president cultivates!" Hughes swallowed his saliva and asked in a low voice, he was also a little emotional, the great sage's missionary path has been nearly a hundred years and no one dares to go.
Seeing that the elder and Master Hughes were so strange, Victor also knew that things were going to be difficult, so he looked at Hughes and nodded very seriously.
"It's not that the first president didn't cultivate, saying that he didn't cultivate just for the sake of deifying him. Hughes startled Victor as soon as he spoke. How could a person who led the continent not cultivate, but others didn't know it, and if he wasn't from the Isis family, he was not qualified to know these things.
"Victor, the Grand Master has been assassinated thousands of times in his life, do you know why he can't die?" Master Hughes tilted his head and looked at the sky outside the window and asked, he didn't understand what he said.
Actually, Master Hughes also wanted to say it directly, but he was afraid of hurting Victor's self-esteem, so he was more tactful.
"Master Hughes, just say it! If there is no possibility of proselytizing, I will give up. Victor had already guessed something from the words "the first president has a cultivation".
"Victor, the first president is a descendant of the goddess, and the goddess has always protected him, and the secret arrow cannot hit him, nor poison can poison him, nor can it be damaged by fire, nor can it be drowned by water, nor can it be buried in the earth, and it cannot be broken by a knife. To put it bluntly, he was invincible in that era. You say that an invincible person has something to pursue, and if you make me invincible, I will lead the world forward like him. Do you think you can ......" Master Hughes was not finished when he was interrupted by President Tyrone.
"Hughes, the rest goes without saying. I'll just let you explain, and let him think about the rest! Also, what you just said is too presumptuous, and if someone else is present, you will be out of luck. President Tyrone cleared his throat and said in a loud voice with three points of anger, and with that, he left the back door of the conference room.
In the conference room, Master Hughes was also afraid, he was indeed a little "crazy" just now.
