Chapter 703: The Dark Council
The ancient hall, the relief carvings on the stone wall are broken in many places, and between each crack, there are traces of time.
The ancient bronze torches were inserted diagonally on the stone wall, and the blazing flames in them were burning, but they could not dispel too much darkness, and the whole hall was still dark and cold, as if the air had become heavy.
Suddenly, the wind rose out of thin air, swept away a bronze torch of flames, and they gathered together in the wind enveloping them into a tall figure.
The figure was wearing a robe that covered its entire body, and only a pair of eyes formed by flames could be seen, which were obviously blazing flames that could burn everything, but they gave people an extremely cold horror that could freeze their souls together.
He stretched out a hand, his five fingers spread out in the void, "Summoning Council members." The low, hoarse voice was like a stone rubbing violently.
The floor was silent, and a round table rose with seven stone chairs around it.
Whew-
Several gusts of wind blew in succession, and flames shot out from each of the bronze torches, condensing five figures of different sizes, all wearing robes to cover themselves.
"Sage, one of my important experiments has reached a critical juncture, and you suddenly summoned it, and it is no surprise that it has failed. So you'd better give me a satisfactory explanation of this matter. The immature female voice sounded, like a seven or eight-year-old girl, crisp and pleasant, but there was no weird mood swing, only the essence of the heart.
Another figure said gloomily: "Huang Ying is right, there has been an agreement between us that unless an emergency arises, we will never summon others without preparation...... Sage, you have broken your promise. ”
The rest of the people did not speak, but their indifferent, cold eyes expressed their attitude.
There was no fluctuation in the sage's flaming eyes, and he slowly swept around without answering the question first, "Jasmine, why hasn't the Morning Star arrived?"
He looked straight at the round table, a slender figure.
"It's been a long time since I've heard from him, maybe Morningstar is going on some experiment, and you should be very aware of his sudden disappearance and reappearance. Jasmine's voice was that of a young girl, with a slight hint of dullness, indicating that this was not her real voice.
The sage nodded, "In that case, only the six of us councillors will be present at this meeting. He waved his hand, "Huang Ying, Sen Luo, you don't have to worry, I will naturally give an explanation for today's matter." ”
After a pause, the sage's voice became deeper and deeper, "Ladies and gentlemen, I seem to have discovered the whereabouts of that thing. ”
The hall fell silent abruptly, except for the tiny syllables of the torch burning, and although they did not name them, they knew exactly what they were referring to.
Huang Ying's immature voice sounded first, "Sage, you have to be responsible for your words!" Although he was questioning sharply, he was full of expectation.
The sage spoke calmly, "Of course. He took out five jade slips, "This is the whole process of investigation and evidence collection after I made a discovery, and you can know the truth and falsity by looking at it once." ”
No one spoke anymore, they all picked up the jade slip, and their thoughts entered it.
After a long time, the five of them put down the jade slip one after another, although they were still silent, but the trembling flames that made up their bodies were enough to show the excitement in their hearts.
"Unexpectedly, that thing was actually brought to Xuanyun Tower, but this remnant knew that he was looking for a protective umbrella for himself. Senro spoke slowly.
"I have a question, Sage, can you be sure just based on a set of treatment plans? Maybe that Mr. Ning Qin is really a powerful beast breeder that you and I have never come into contact with. ”
Moon Shadow, one of the members of the council, spoke softly, even if it was a figure formed by the condensation of flames, he still gave people a sense of etherealism, even if he was close in front of him, it still seemed like he was far away.
The sage nodded, "I have already thought of the concerns of Councilor Moon Shadow, and explained them in the jade slip, maybe it is a little unspecific, so I will say it again." ”
He held up a finger, "First of all, it is the characteristics of this group of treatment programs, it has distinct traces of characteristics, it is to strengthen the physical body and replenish the soul, although there are many similar programs, but you should not forget that only the program recorded on it can have the effect of turning decay into magic. ”
"Secondly, the final result of treating strange beasts, everyone has already seen that unless it is a beast breeder of the Great Sun Rank Grandmaster Realm, it is impossible to create a species at all. Do you think that a noble grandmaster exists, and we don't know it? So there is only one possibility, and it is the girl who makes up for the shortcomings in the treatment plan that will have the final result. ”
The sage knocked on the table, "That Mr. Ning Qin suddenly accepted Yundie as a disciple, I think he discovered some wonderful abilities on her, so after confirmation, I didn't have time to inform the councilors one by one, it would be a waste of our precious time, so I suddenly started the summoning ceremony...... Time is running out. ”
Moon Shadow nodded, "I don't have a problem. ”
The sage said lightly: "Then let's start voting, whether you want to make a move and take Yun Die into your hands." ”
"Agreed!"
"Agreed!"
Unanimously passed.
The sage stood up and pressed his hands on the round table, "Then I ask the councillors to mobilize their forces to accomplish our ends." But I hope you can restrain your inner impulses and desires a little, Xuanyun Tower has a very powerful power, and I don't want to hear the news of any councillor being exposed in the near future, it will be a great loss for the Dark Council. ”
Whew-
A gust of wind blew, and the six figures dispersed, turned into flames again, and returned to the torch.
The round table and stone chairs sank into the ground, and the hall returned to its original appearance, dark, silent, and oppressive.
......
Feng Qing's expression was cautious, and his slender and white fingers tapped lightly on the armrest, "Are you sure that Mr. Ning Qin said that he needs more, similar jade?"
Looking at the young lady's appearance, Zhou Li knew that she was very serious now, and bowed his head slightly and said respectfully: "Yes, young lady, Mr. Ning Qin said that if the young lady still has it in his hand, he is willing to buy it at a high price." ”
Feng Qing nodded slowly, already understanding Qin Yu's thoughts, and immediately smiled bitterly.
This is undoubtedly the best opportunity to curry favor with Your Excellency, if there is still a jade bi in his hand, no matter how precious it is, Feng Qing will not hesitate to offer it.
But she only has this small piece, and she still got it by accident, even if she wants to find it, she has no clue.
Exhaling, Feng Qing raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "I know, Zhou Li, you will go to Yanghu again, and tell Mr. Ning Qin, I will try my best to find this jade for him." ”
Zhou Li said that he turned around and left.
Closing his eyes slightly, leaning on the sofa and thinking for a while, Feng Qing suddenly got up and walked outside. Although she doesn't know the true function and source of this jade, she has personally encountered it, and she knows some of its qualities very well.
Using the power of Xuanyun Tower to search, she will gain something in the future - she must not miss the opportunity to shorten the distance between her and Your Excellency!
Of course, this must be done with caution and not to attract additional attention.
