Warhammer Wizard
Chapter 811: Duke of Greyhawk
A team of Rick guards respectfully escorted Ren into Fuberden Castle, turned left on the square, and entered the Lotus Palace.
This is not the first time that Ren has come to the Palace of the Netherlands.
Along the way, he looked at this luxurious and magnificent palace garden, and he felt that something was wrong. The last time I came here, Gnieus was still the consul and the master of the Palace of the Netherlands. Now Gnieus is not only dead, but he has to take his place.
Today's Palace of the Netherlands is busier than ever, with people coming and going on the road, not only the public servants of the consul, but also the councilors who meet the Duke of Grey Eagle.
When they saw Ren, their eyes widened.
Speaker Rennes!
During this special period, Speaker Renne entered the Palace of the Netherlands to visit the Duke. Even the dullest person could guess Ren's purpose.
People concealed their shock and saluted Ren.
After crossing with Ren, they couldn't help but look back at Ren's back, their hearts pounding, this is definitely a big news.
Speaker Ren is going to run for consul!
Some people paused for a while, then ran quickly again, or took out a sound meter and quickly whispered.
With all the attention, Ren arrived at the main building of the Lotus Palace. This three-story building was originally the emperor's palace. It was located on the shore of Lotus Lake with a wide view. Later, it was transformed into an office building and named the "Government Hall".
Over the years, successive consuls have worked in the palace, which is the administrative center of the empire.
Now, sitting in the ruling hall is Tim Kennan, Duke of Greyhawk.
"Speaker Rennes, please wait a moment."
Rick's guard led Ren to the waiting hall on the first floor of the ruling hall. On the way there, someone had already reported it in advance.
There were many people in the waiting room, all waiting for the Lord Duke's reception.
They were shocked when they saw that Ren's reaction was the same as the people outside, but they didn't dare to show it in front of Ren.
Among them were two Imperial MPs.
It seems that they also came to report their candidacy. When they saw Ren, their expressions instantly became very exciting.
"Speaker Rennes!"
Everyone stood up and saluted, and Ren nodded in response.
One of the imperial congressmen is a legendary superhuman who has served as the mayor of a large city in the southeastern province of the empire for many years, and is a member of the Modu faction. After contacting Ren a few times, he finally couldn't help asking: "Speaker Ren, you too…"
Before he finished speaking, a legendary wizard came in and said enthusiastically, "Speaker Rennes, the Duke invites you in."
The wizard's magic robe has an eight-leaf badge, apparently from the floating city of Flanes.
Ren followed him to the waiting hall. The other party opened an arbitrary door, stepped in, and went directly to the office on the top floor of the ruling hall.
When I came out of any door, I saw Duke Grey Eagle at a glance.
This holy soul wizard's attire seems to never change. Beneath a thick black robe is a tall and strong body, with a shiny head, a black beard that is sharply trimmed at the bottom, and a stern face. Standing in the middle of the large office, it is extremely impressive. great pressure.
He was waiting for Ren's arrival.
"Lord Duke." Ren bowed to greet him.
Tim Kennan looked at Ren with deep eyes for a few seconds, nodded slightly, and said, "We've met many times, but this should be the first time we've met in person in person, your strength is stronger than I expected. Many, it is really enviable that Anxi has a student like you."
In the last auction of the floating city, Duke Gray Eagle did not propose to communicate privately, but focused on participating. Moreover, Ren was the host, and he was the guest, so he was very silent during the auction.
Today, he said compliments, but there was no smile on his face.
Instead, the Eye of the Soul sensed hostility.
This kind of hostility is very shallow. To be precise, it should be indifference and hatred, not out of personal grudges, but the result of different positions.
Ren knew why the other party hated him.
He responded neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Excellency the Duke has been awarded."
"Hmph." Duke Gray Eagle snorted and said bluntly: "With your current strength and status, I don't need to be polite to you. The current situation of the empire is unbalanced, and a big reason is that you appeared in the past. For a few years, a series of things have your shadow behind."
Ren shrugged, "There are some things that I can't control, and the Duke can't put all the blame on me."
"Really?" Tim Kennan stared at Renne coldly, "You were also forced to win Oroin?"
Master Oroin was originally a member of the Balancing faction, but no one in the Supreme Council knows that he has completely fallen to the Modus faction, and he just didn't announce it.
The Balance faction originally consisted of four Holy Soul Wizards, and the other two factions also had four each, which was very balanced.
The Duke of Purple Flame fell to the Netherite faction.
Master Oroin joined the Modus.
Now there are only Tim Kennan and Master Huo Huai left in the Balancing faction, with only two votes, and their influence in the Supreme Council has dropped greatly. He can only join forces with Kelston to fight against the Modus faction who has half of the votes. Let the Supreme Council maintain a fragile balance.
However, the three-legged confrontation turned into a rivalry between the two powers.
This makes the balancing faction have no room for manipulation, and cannot repeatedly jump horizontally, and the right to speak is greatly reduced.
Tim Kennan was humiliated by Kelston last time, and he has to cooperate with the other party even though he has not found it. the price was won.
His purpose was to help Otiluk.
Otiluke has followed him all his life, without merit or hard work, and now he has no hope of being promoted to the Holy Soul Wizard. If he wants to serve as a consul in the last few decades of his life, make a difference, and leave his name in the history of the empire, he must Help him fulfill this dream.
Unexpectedly, Ren stepped in.
Tim Kennan knew better than most of Ren's details. Whether it was his personal strength or the extraordinary legion under his command, Otiluke was more than eight blocks behind.
Even if all of the "Hand of Eight Leaves" were given to Oteluk, the chance of defeating Ren in battle is very slim.
So Tim Kennan got angry when he saw Ryan, and it was no wonder he was happy.
Facing the question, Ren was not afraid.
"Master Oroin has always wanted to strengthen the fighting school. As a junior fighting wizard, it is normal for me to help him realize his ideal." Ren looked like a matter of course, "As for who Master Oroin voted for, this is him. I have never interfered and have no right to interfere.”
Tim Kennan spit out two words: "Sophistry."
"It's a fact." Ren replied seriously: "If the Duke doesn't believe it, I can't help it."
He almost wrote "believe it or not" on his face.
This attitude made Tim Kennan even more displeased, and said coldly: "In that small plane, you accused Kelston in person of being a villain, and I admire your courage. Now it seems that you are better than Kelston is not much better. Kelston is just insidious and selfish, and your ambitions are even greater, sooner or later the balance of the empire will be completely broken by you, causing a huge disaster."
Ren's heart froze for a while, did the other party guess his plan?
should not.
The Eye of Soul confirmed that Tim Kennan's emotions were not intense. If he knew that he was going to overthrow the Supreme Council, he would not just reprimand him, he would have done it already.
Ren's face was calm, "My lord, not everyone believes in the theory of balance, please don't convict me for so-called breaking the balance, and it didn't happen."
"You think the equilibrium theory is wrong?"
Tim Kennan asked very calmly, his tone was calm, but his breath became dangerous.
Ren was vigilant in his heart. The balance theory is what Tim Kennan values most. What he has done in his life, his magical path, his floating city and students, and the entire school of ideas, are all based on this. Set of balance theory.
To deny the balance theory is to deny everything about Tim Kennan.
The Eye of the Soul saw that the other party's emotions gradually turned red.
"The Duke has misunderstood."
Ren didn't want to completely annoy the three giants of the empire, but he didn't give up immediately, and explained calmly: "I'm a Modus sect, and I don't know much about balance theory, and I'm superficial. All I know is that things are not absolute. Only relative, and so should balance.”
"Everything has only relative balance, not absolute balance."
"It's like the pattern of the empire changes, sometimes it is peaceful and stable, sometimes it is war and strife, and it is always in constant change. The historical process is like sawing wood, sometimes forward, sometimes backward, but in general, it develops in depth and spirals gradually. ."
"The only constant in the world is change."
"Balance is also constantly changing. As for how to define balance, everyone's standards are different. Lord Duke, what do you think?"
Ren's words meant something.
In the future, when Tim Kennan thinks about it, he will definitely wake up to the real meaning of Ren's words.
But right now, he was inspired.
The Holy Soul Wizard's eyes were slightly bright, and he was chewing a few words in his heart: relative balance, absolute balance, the only constant is change...
He was lost in thought.
It wasn't until a long time later that Tim Kennan came back to his senses. He couldn't help but look at Ren and said lightly, "Your thoughts are deeper than I imagined. We can discuss it when we have a chance in the future."
His attitude seemed indifferent, but in fact he was very interested.
Immediately, Ren felt a little flustered.
I don't have any **** thoughts. It's all about some fur knowledge from my previous life. Half a can of water in my stomach is jingling.
Fortunately, Tim Kennan got back to business and asked, "Ren, are you running for consul?"
"Yes, Lord Duke."
Ren was sweating in his heart, but luckily he passed.
"What's in it for you?"
Tim Kennan asked as he sat behind his desk. He pointed to the half-meter-high documents on the desk, shook his head and said, "The Archons deal with these things every day, and this is only part of it. I only However, after being a consul for less than ten days, I already feel bored, and I just want to complete the revenge operation as soon as possible and leave this position to others."
He looked at Ren with a puzzled expression on his face, "With your talent and strength, sooner or later you will enter the Supreme Council, so why bother?"
Actually, Tim Kennan learned about it from Ansie ten days ago.
He has been waiting for Ren to come.
Ren had already thought of his words, he smiled, and pointed to the thick documents on the table, "Your Majesty, in your eyes, these are annoying and mundane things, but in the eyes of the vast majority of people in the world Here, they represent power, great power!"
"Real power comes from extraordinary power and magic." Tim Kennan disagreed.
"An attributive must be added in front of this sentence - strong enough." Ren shook his head, "Not every extraordinary person has the opportunity to be promoted to the holy rank. Compared with the imperial parliamentarians, being a consul is a huge reward. power, the road is easier to achieve.”
The consul's status in the Empire is only under the Supreme Council.
The power of the consul is greater than that of several holy soul wizards who are indifferent to fame and fortune in the supreme forum.
Of course Tim Kennan knew this. He stared at Ren and seemed to find the answer on his body, "Others don't have a chance, but you have. I can see that you are already at the pinnacle of legend, and you should be able to break through soon. To the Holy Spirit Wizard?"
Ren nodded and admitted frankly.
"I want to experience what it's like to be a consul before I enter the Supreme Council." He said half-truth: "My lord, I am a child born in the countryside. When I was young, I never thought that one day I would come to this day. position."
"I'm very young and have a long life in the future. I don't want to study magic all day."
"So I want to try more."
"In different positions, I know different people, see different things, make different achievements, and enrich my life experience."
Ren faced Tim Kennan sincerely and said seriously: "Consul is a good title, it can bring me glory and power. I want to see what I can do if I run the empire. At this point, it may bring a surprise to the people of the Empire and the Supreme Council."
Tim Kennan was silent.
Ren's speech is very convincing. He is indeed too young, only twenty-seven years old, less than a fraction of his own.
Young people are always more aggressive. UU reading www.uukanshu.com likes to seek fresh excitement, which is normal.
As for whether Renn will become a consul and make a mess of the empire, Tim Kennan is not worried. Judging from Renn's past achievements, he is a very capable person.
Even if Ren makes a mistake, there is still the Supreme Council sitting on it, and it can't make any big waves.
Ansyverdas wouldn't ignore it either.
After careful consideration, Tim Kennan thought that it would be a good idea to give Ren a chance, and nodded, "I accept your application."
According to the election regulations, he has no right to refuse.
But it is naturally better to get consent, so that he does not deal with himself in the revenge action, Ren is very happy, and proposes: "Master Kenan, if I win the vote in the Imperial Council, can you give me a gift in the Supreme Council? Vote yes?"
The Modu faction only had six votes.
And the Supreme Council needs more than half of the resolution to pass the resolution, and it is still the most crucial vote. If we can get the support of Tim Kennan, plus two votes from him and Master Huo Huai, then it will be stable.
With a smile on his face, Tim Kennan asked playfully, "What reason do you have for me to vote for it?"
He is waiting for an offer.
Ren understood at a glance, this was the real purpose of his visit to the Lotus Palace today, and he had prepared a bargaining chip for a long time.
