The door of the parliament hall slowly opened, and Lin Ye and Rita walked in.

Seeing the new Lord of the Temple re-entering the council chamber, all the Aiel people in the seats fell silent.

However, most people still look at Rita's face.

After all, she is the leader of the Temple Guard and the daughter of Elder Erwin.

And according to the informants placed in the escort, Rita will become the next chief elder of the temple. Isn't this a good idea?

In addition, the main representatives of the elites and elders candidates sitting at the front all showed proud expressions.

It seemed that because they had prevented Lin Ye from coming off stage just now, they thought they had won.

Of course, this is all their wild imagination.

Lin Ye walked straight to the stage, turned around and looked at everyone indifferently, and then said slowly:

"Based on the opinions and suggestions of all representatives, I have decided to continue to implement the regulations just now.

Change the content of the textbook to allow the younger generation of Aiel people to understand the truth of the world and see clearly the devastated Aiel civilization after the disaster.

In addition, I will also lift the curfew and abolish all harsh government laws, so that the people in the city can gain true freedom!"

As soon as this was said, the elite sitting in the middle stood up directly, slapped the table and shouted:

"Didn't you listen to what we just said? This is simply impossible. Even if you issue this law, no one will respond!"

"Samson, watch your words and deeds!" Rita also stood up, walked to the stage and pointed at this person and shouted loudly.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Lin Ye looked at the other party in confusion.

When arguing with the two major forces before, this guy with a strange face didn't seem to participate, and he didn't even say a word.

It can be said that Lin Ye didn't notice him the whole time.

"It seems that our new temple master still needs to do more homework!"

Samson laughed sinisterly several times, and then began to introduce his identity: "I am the president of the Ibrahim Chamber of Commerce. The residents in the temple are fed and clothed by our chamber of commerce! Of course, I am too

The leader of thousands of managers in the city, all matters, big and small, must pass through my hands!"

After the introduction, he turned to Lin Ye:

“I was born in the temple and grew up in the temple. Over the past 120 years, I have witnessed many things.

I have to say that your thinking at the moment is really naive. Is telling them the truth a good thing?

The remaining hope of those people has been squeezed dry. Where can they find the courage to accept the truth?

We all consider the overall situation and try our best to protect those fragile hearts and let them live here with peace of mind.

As long as you don't interfere with the actions of our Chamber of Commerce, I call on everyone to help you manage the city!"

This man doesn't look very old, but I didn't expect him to be over a hundred years old.

However, Lin Ye was not surprised.

Because the average lifespan of the Aiel is more than half that of humans, that is, around 180 years old, some long-lived Aiel elders can even live to be over 250 years old.

At this time, the candidate of the elders sitting next to him also echoed:

"The temple elders set such strict laws in the first place to solve this problem. We also worked very hard!"

Seeing Lin Ye's confused look, the man immediately stood up and bowed, then continued:

"My name is Hobbes. My father and several uncles are all former council elders of the Temple Presbytery, so they are relatively familiar with this area.

It's just that a few seniors were unlucky and died at the hands of their own people."

After saying that, he glanced at Rita intentionally or unintentionally.

Lin Ye put his hands behind his back and looked at Hobbes indifferently: "Then what are your requirements?"

"We, the temple elders, do not have any excessive requests. We just hope that you can approve the selection of 250 council elders in order to restore the scale before the disaster!"

Hobbes sat at the table with a smile, and raised his voice specially to shout, as if he was afraid that others would not hear.

After hearing this, Lin Ye's expression did not change. He would never agree to this unreasonable request.

The temple elders generally consist of the chief elder and council elders.

This person asked for the appointment of 250 elders of the council, and said that he wanted to restore the scale before the disaster, which was just an excuse.

These so-called candidates for the Elders Council should know what the situation is now.

Want to take this opportunity to strengthen your own power? There is no way!

Lin Ye thought for a while, then responded to everyone:

"Since Hobbes mentioned this, I will tell you what I think. I have decided to limit the number of elders in the council to no more than one hundred!

In addition, the new position of Cabinet Elder has been created, with a total of thirty people selected by the Council, the Chief Elder and me.

The cabinet elders are under the jurisdiction of the chief elder and obey her orders."

As soon as this statement came out, all the elder candidates looked at each other.

And Hobbes no longer cared about etiquette as much as before. He stood up and pointed at Lin Ye and said angrily:

"What are you talking about? It's just the newly appointed Lord of the Temple. He doesn't know anything and still dares to interfere in our affairs. He really doesn't know what the heavens and the earth are!"

"Then what are you doing!" Lin Ye frowned and said sternly.

"Create a group of puppets, let them spread rumors and confuse people's hearts, and then you will reap the benefits from behind.

The civilians of Aiur have been deceived by you for hundreds of years. Now that they have witnessed the invasion of the Zerg, will they still believe those fabricated lies?

You must think clearly that this temple is not a place for you to exploit, rob wealth, and experience a life of power. This is a refuge for everyone!"

"So what?" Samson crossed his arms with a look of disdain, "This is our consistent rule. If you have other long-term plans, then we will not help you manage the city!"

"I thought that the new master of the temple was a sensible person. When he was preaching just now, he specially led people to kneel down and salute. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a rigid guy who doesn't know how to adapt."

Another one?

"What do you mean by this?" Lin Ye asked.

Samson glanced at the people beside him, and then said disdainfully:

"What's the point? That guy named Jialan is also so inflexible. In the end, he can neither repel the Zerg outside nor save the desperate people. In the end, he still accomplishes nothing!"

Lin Ye walked up to Samson, his eyes even colder.

He responded in a deep voice, with murderous intent in his tone:

"I am different from Jialan. Jialan cared about the inheritance and continuation of the El civilization and that he only had less than a million people left, so he couldn't bear the heartache and killed him.

But you must understand that I am not from Aiel, but from a distant alien planet.

Becoming the master of the temple is just a coincidence, and the promise I made to you is just because I accepted the entrustment of others.

The only feelings I have for this place are technology and resources, and this temple that allows me to travel freely in subspace!"

The general idea of ​​what he said was correct, but his tone was a bit exaggerated.

The group of elites and candidates for the elders opposite all looked over with a little surprise.

Rita, who was standing behind Lin Ye, also widened her eyes at this moment, with confusion reflected in her eyes.
