Minutes and seconds passed in silence.

When someone stepped forward and suggested to Kiliman that the Council of High Lords suspend the meeting to meet the Cast General, who might be in trouble, Kiliman responded with a silent gesture.

The Supreme Ministers stood still.

These people were gloating at each other, but none of their thoughts were expressed, and from Killiman's point of view, these people were standing there with their heads bowed and not saying a word, like dead people.

The Supreme Ministers have reached a state where they don't say anything and don't react on the surface, but because they know each other too well, they can know each other's thoughts and mentality in their hearts as if they directly saw and heard each other's words and deeds.

They did manage to make the newly minted General's trip to Terra a bit abrupt and unable to attend the meeting before Killman's patience ran out.

Just as the Supreme Ministers had such thoughts, a sound of footsteps came from the corridor outside the hall.

The footsteps sounded unusually heavy, indicating the weight of the person making them.

Thinking of this, the Supreme Secretaries were already suspicious, and at the same time, they had a bad premonition in their hearts.

A general who was clearly the commander of the Mechanic Order's cathars, his armor embedded directly in his fleshless body, his left hand clutching his belt, his right hand resting on the hilt of his sword, his head held high and unusually proud.

"Until the final step of your canonization of my identity as regent continues, I am certainly not a casting general, but Agrippina's ruling sage." Vic saluted, smiling at his flesh-and-blood face that had been installed for diplomacy and good offices, "But now that you've done it yourself, I'm the Casting General." ”

Kiriman stared at Vic.

A man with a geared scepter, clad in a red robe, dressed as a sage of the Mechanic Order, hunched up.

Until the door of the hall was completely pushed open.

Not because the Casting General didn't get delayed in Terra and went straight to the Boulder Fortress, but because of the identity of the new Casting General.

But they all exclaimed in their hearts, why didn't this bastard go straight to the Boulder Fortress instead of grinding the program in Terra?

These two people are clearly the new casting general and the inseparable military commander.

"Vic?" Killiman stared sideways at the body of the newly minted general, "You are the newly minted general?" ”

After Calga's massive warrior stood sideways against the door, the two people behind him appeared in everyone's sight.

Karga, who had run in and whispered a few words to Kiliman, before leaving, as if conveying some kind of military message, entered the hall first.

And as someone who had heard Calga say that the casting general was coming, Kiliman should not have been surprised, but he was still very surprised in his heart.

The High Lords did not react on the surface, acting very naturally and not at all surprised.

The mood of the original body is very complicated.

Vic, Agrippina Sophisticer.

This guy once accompanied the Inquisition to the Tyrone Star Sector as Belisarius's lieutenant, and then became the Dominating Sage during the defense of Agrippina during the Empire's defense of the Black Expedition.

Later, during the Battle of Tyrone, Vic organized an expedition within the Mechanics, calling on many of the Foundry Worlds to contribute money for a "pilgrimage expedition".

Then he paused for a while, and even though he wasn't on the Golden Expedition, he could guess with his toes who was behind him.

It is likely that the Supreme Ministers will unite to squeeze out this person who is too close to the Tyrone, and then set off a storm of infighting.

But in addition to worrying, Kiliman also felt a little happy, because he felt that Vic's appearance was like Qin Mo secretly helping him, at least there was such a person by the side of Supreme Qing, and he would not have to fight with all Supreme Qing alone in the future.

"I really didn't expect the new casting general to be you, I haven't heard of this at all." Killiman cupped his forehead and exhaled slowly, "It's no wonder, your mechanical order is relatively independent, and I'm not in Terra. ”

"Isn't the Regent worried that I'm causing a civil war in the Order of Mechanics?" Vic asked suddenly.

Killiman looked at the other Supreme Ministers suddenly, wondering how Vic could ask such a question so directly on this occasion.

But the other supreme ministers were expressionless and motionless.

Only then did Killiman realize that everything around him had come to a moment's standstill.

"The Lord of Tyrone has really given you a lot of good things." Killiman smiled and shook his head, "I used to be worried that if you deliberately ran for the position of Cast General, it could lead to a civil war, but now that you have been chosen as the Cast General and have been pushed out to represent the interests of the Order of Mechanics, it doesn't hurt. ”

Hearing this, Vic smiled and sighed, a little embarrassed.

Gaining recognition within the Mechanic Order is not an easy task.

It's not really a big deal to get close to Tyrone, but I've worked with Kaul before......

To be able to become a casting general, partly by the reputation accumulated over the past hundred years, and partly by probation.

With the STC in his left hand and the doctrine of "who is the real Ohmesaiah" in his right hand, the former openly taking it out and sharing it in exchange for fame, and the latter secretly propagating it.

In addition, STC, which can improve the casting world of Shiyama code, is really famous as a Vic sage.

But Vic doesn't think he represents the interests of the Order of Mechanics as Killman says, and the election of the Foundry General is an extremely complicated matter, and he only dares to say that most of the Mechanics support him, and this mostly affects the appointment of the Foundry General, and that's it.

After feeling a sigh of emotion, Vic glanced at the Supreme Ministers and talked about the important matter at the moment: "When I arrived in Terra, I found that everything was not going well, just as the Om Messiah would not let me be appointed as the casting general, and then I speculated that these guys were trying to prevent me from taking office on time, but they didn't seem to be targeting me alone, but ......"

"It's putting pressure on me, you're right." "They don't want to go to war, they try to put pressure on me, they use me as a wishing machine to find a way to avoid war, but now war is really inevitable." ”

Vic lowered his eyebrows in thought for a moment, then raised his hand, and the Supreme Ministers who had just frozen as if they had been isolated from the entire space were all normal.

"The Order of the Mechanics will be fully prepared for the coming war." Vic glanced at the Supreme Minister, "Just like you and the Imperial institutions you represent. ”

The High Ministers did not hesitate at all, echoed Vic's words, expressed their support as firmly as they had at the beginning of the meeting, and then quickly completed the process, issuing an order to prepare for war in the name of the High Lord's Council and the Regent, as if these High Ministers really supported Killiman with all their might.
