Chapter 314: The Lich Council
Three years passed in a hurry, and the lord-level gathering of the Lich Clan was held on time. Chris was naturally also invited, and Chen Guanyun was stained and followed Raffi into it.
Although the Lich clan has many masters, and rarely fights with others, they are quite united when it comes to the outside. In order to facilitate the union with the outside world, the major families elected ninety-nine people and established a council.
The council is the core of the Lich clan's power, with nine speakers and one speaker. The Speaker is elected from among the members of the Parliament, and the Speaker is elected from among the Speakers.
Those who can become councilors are supported by at least the overlords of the nearly a thousand Lich Lords. To be the speaker, at least nine members must support it. The Speaker of the House of Representatives needs the support of at least 50 or more members.
Although it seems that the ninety-nine of them rule the entire Lich Clan, it is actually just a simple management. The parliament has been established for at least 100,000 years, and there has never been any mandatory order, and the members and speakers have changed for ten terms, and the only thing that has not changed is the speaker.
Legend has it that the Speaker is a doppelganger of a god, so as long as the body does not fall, he does not need to fall. It is rumored that the first person to propose the formation of a parliament was also the Speaker.
However, the Speaker does have a merit, at least all the members and the Speaker have publicly admitted that they are no match for the Speaker. And the Grand Speaker, who has also challenged the patriarchs of the Terran and Demon Clans, is said to have won.
Therefore, some Lich Lords say that as long as the Great Council is in the Hell Realm for one day, the Lich Clan will be at its peak for one day. At the same time as the Speaker was elected Speaker, he united all the members of the Assembly to formulate the rules and regulations of the Parliament. One of the most respected by all the lichs is that there is no lord-level gathering held in 10,000 years.
The gathering, like Chris's idea, was purely academic. You can exchange cultivation experience, you can exchange cultivation gold experience, and you can even exchange secret methods.
Since the implementation of this rule, the number of masters at the lord level of the Lich clan has increased dramatically, and the number of masters at the overlord level has also increased a lot, and the Lich Clan can be said to have developed by leaps and bounds.
It is precisely because of this that the position of the Speaker is more and more secure. Both the councillor and the speaker have gone through ten terms, and the only one who has not changed is the Speaker.
Chris came this time to coincide with the once-in-a-million year gathering of lords to hold a parliamentary election by the way. Overlords of all liege levels can choose to support a person to become a councilor.
Although there are basically no orders in the council, and occasionally they are discussed, all the top masters in the council are the best of the best. Those who have served as the speaker have all successfully ascended to the divine realm.
Therefore, the parliamentary elections are still very lively, and if the supporters are elected speaker, they can also get a lot of help. For example, in the teaching of cultivation experience, even the secret method of the overlord level can be transmitted.
The elected speaker is generally the patriarch or former patriarch of a large family. With the support of a big family behind them, more people can remember them and support them.
If nothing else, let's talk about fame. Many overlords in the lord level are silently cultivating alone, and even sometimes they forget to participate in gatherings, how can others choose him as a councilor?
Only those who are active in front of all lord-level masters have a chance. Moreover, they generally have a large number of star field resources to worship, and some families even have hundreds of subordinate planes.
With the accumulation of massive resources, even a lich clan without any talent can eventually become a lord-level master. Of course, those who have no talent and can be promoted to the lord are generally direct descendants of masters.
All the lords have gathered in the Lich Council Field. Only masters of the overlord level can go to the most central galaxy, members can go to the most central planet, and the speaker can enter the hall of the speaker, which represents the most glorious of the lich clan.
Now in the hall, there are nine people sitting at a table. In the center is the Grand Speaker, with four Speakers on each side, regardless of the level of power.
In fact, there is basically not much difference between the powers of the Speaker and the Speaker, the only difference is that the Speaker can represent the entire Lich Clan alone and discuss matters with the other two royal patriarchs.
However, all matters discussed by the Speaker are basically decided by more than half of the Speaker and the councilors, so they also represent the interests of most of the Lich Clan's lord-level overlords, that is, the core interests of the Lich Clan.
"Speaker, are any of you going to resign as Speaker or even a member of the Council?" asked the Speaker in a low voice, looking around for a week.
Everyone was silent, and it seemed that they were reluctant to give up this position, maybe it was just a false name, but they were not willing to give up.
"Ahem, I think I'll forget it this time, I'm ready to impact the God Realm in three thousand years. If I succeed, I will do it for less than one term, and if I fail, I must recuperate with peace of mind, and everyone will nominate others. The old patriarch of the Ross family spoke.
As soon as he said this, there were two others who were similar to him, and they were embarrassed to take up the positions of speaker and councillor anymore, and said that they would also quit the parliament and concentrate on cultivation.
The Speaker nodded with satisfaction, quite interesting. Although the speaker and parliamentarians represent the fastest news, they can make more profits for the family, they can have more resources, and they can have more masters at the same level to exchange experience, but if they really lose the support of others, they will not be able to enjoy the previous benefits.
After the Speakers finished their discussions, they all proposed which of the ten councillors under their management were also ready to withdraw from the parliament and concentrate on cultivation. A total of 23 members, including the three members of the Speaker's command, are leaving the Parliament.
Twenty-six positions were vacated at once, and naturally there was a dragon fight. Although there are many top players who don't like to participate, they like to participate more.
When a meeting of the current councillors was held, all the members who had withdrawn left their seats, bowed and thanked the speaker, especially the speaker, and then withdrew from their seats.
The election of members of parliament also requires the nomination of the speaker, the reconsideration of ten members, and the consent of 1,000 overlords. These grand occasions Rafi and Chris naturally did not have the opportunity to see, and their strength was far from enough.
To Rafi's excitement, one of the newly elected MPs is the patriarch of their family. In this way, Lafite is also a member of a large family and has a great background.
Chen Guanyun feels that their system is very interesting, there is no need to fight life and death, as long as the majority of people are wooed. It's a pity that this kind of system is absolutely unsustainable in the Demon Realm.
The Demon Realm pursues the respect of the strong, and many times it is justified by the big fist. I have never heard of anyone who would support the weak to become a leader.
Although all the Lich Councillors are top experts, at least half of them are not in the top 500 at all. The remaining half are only the top five hundred, and the top one hundred are these speakers.
After the by-election of 26 members, three speakers will be elected, and it will be another contest of character. Popularity haode, naturally easy to go up, this speaker is a member of the parliament can compete for all parliamentarians.
In the end, three of the older members of the council were elected speakers, and the supreme power of the Lich clan was reconstituted. Then it was announced by the Speaker that the lord-level gathering of the Lich Clan would begin once every 10,000 years, and everyone would communicate with confidence.
Chen Guanyun and the three of them are naturally in the outermost star field, after all, they are only in the early stage of the emperor level, and they are the people at the bottom of the lords. Raffi led the two of them to his family's gathering place, which was filled with the best of his family.
It is impossible to see that a person of Rafite's level is actually very prestigious in their family, and at least more than half of the people greet him.
Thousands of lord-level lichs, in Chen Guanyun's opinion, all looked very similar, it was really difficult for them to recognize Rafite. Chris was also pushed out by Raffi and introduced to his friends.
Although this is just a clone of Chris, other lichs are also clones, and there is no question of respect or disrespect. It was Chen Guanyun, a guy from the Terran, who made them talk about it for a long time.
It wasn't until Raffi personally helped Chris explain that the two of them were space wanderers and Chen Guanyun was Chris's employer, that they turned curiosity into respect.
I have to say that the title of space wanderer can really scare many people, at least Chen Guanyun, a foreigner, has never dared to come over and bully him.
Chris is like a fish in water, chatting with almost everyone introduced by Raffi for a while, and the harvest is very great. The clones of Chris in Chen Guanyun's space said that they are now sure to break through to the middle stage of the emperor level, and even the four clones are combined into one, and they are sure to impact the late stage of the emperor level.
This news made Chen Guanyun happy and sad at the same time. I'm glad that Chris was finally able to advance quickly, but sad that he was still in the early stage of the emperor level, and it was still a long way from the middle stage. Nana is already in the middle of the emperor level and is running to the late stage, and now Chris is the same.
If there is enough energy for the three of them to absorb, the three of them in the growth stage of the divine beasts can also advance quickly, and even surpass Nana and the others at a speed.
The only thing to worry about now is Chen Guanyun and Tianyu. Because of the different races in the Heavenly Domain, when he was in the spatial turbulence, he had absorbed a lot of chaotic energy, and he had fallen into a deep sleep, and when he woke up, his strength should also be improved.
Chen Guanyun didn't care, for the sake of his own future, he also mixed into the lich group, listening around to other people's conversations, and occasionally interjecting a few words.
Although most people looked at this guy who didn't understand the rules with confusion at first, when they heard what Chen Guanyun said, they also understood it, and gradually liked to discuss it with him.
In this way, a year passed in a hurry, and Chris took a break for half a month, and used this half month to break through to the middle of the emperor level. Then go out and talk to others, this time you can go a little deeper, and the level of the master of communication will also rise accordingly.
