Chapter 157 The rain is coming
7 month 24 day.

Another meeting of the Lisavanier Painting Society.

The aides-de-camp serve as mobile display stands in the meeting hall as usual, providing guidance to the members of the painting club.

However, it was different from the usual situation where there were only thirty or forty members of the painting club in the empty hall.

At this time, the main hall was almost full of painting club members coming and going.

Their faces were all filled with excitement, and they all had identical tan cards pinned to their shirts or jackets.

Before stopping at the paintings, the members of the painting club often couldn't help but talk a lot.

Even if you say something that is unclear or even simply ignorant, you will receive kind applause from the people around you.

Without him, everyone was in a good mood.

Even today's extremely gloomy sky looks so elegant, not to mention just a few comments that have nothing to do with me?

There has never been such a lively conversation in the meeting hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

"In my opinion, the conditions for joining the painting club should not be relaxed." Sitting on the long table newly arranged for clergy, Boyce looked at the noisy scene in the direction of his subordinates, frowned slightly, and turned to himself with some dissatisfaction. Osval complained from the side.

This painting club meeting is the first meeting since the "painting club reform" was officially implemented in mid-month.

About 200 preliminary members who might have been recruited in the next two or three years joined the Lisavanier Painting Society en masse.

Although these new members already know that joining the painting club is not equivalent to joining the Black Ceremony, this does not dampen their interest.

After all, becoming a member of the painting club can directly obtain a piece of land on both sides of the road to prosperity.

This is a real benefit.

Besides, even if the Lisavanier Painting Society and the Rite in Black are no longer as closely connected as they used to be, who doesn’t know that the clergy of the Rite in Black will host and participate in every gathering of the painting society?

After joining the art club, even ordinary people with no basic background have the possibility to show their faces in front of big shots.

How can such a good opportunity be missed?

So there is no doubt that the painting club’s status remains transcendent.

Being a member of the painting club still means an improvement in the social class of "Talek".

Oswal had an open mind about this.

He smiled and said to Boyce:

"The reform of the painting club may have certain drawbacks, but I think in the long run, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."

"Giving the civilians a little bit of upward sweetness will be beneficial to our rule as a gift in black."

After Oswald's words came out of his mouth, Boyce couldn't say any more.

Boyce would not have even started this conversation if Pastor Mary, who was pushing for reform, had not temporarily received some news conveyed by the guards and left the hall.

Seeing that Oswal was also very supportive of the changes in the art club, he could only shut his mouth angrily.

Seeing that Boyce finally stopped complaining, Osval shook his head secretly.

Master Yig arranged for Boyce to be in charge of "Talek"'s guards, which really put the people to good use.

Put him in charge of the guard and he can fulfill the instructions meticulously.

But if you put aside the respect that Mr. Iger had for Boyce because of his loyalty, this former leather factory worker who was born into a carpenter family actually did not have the qualities to become a powerful figure in a big city.

In fact, most of the current middle and high-level people in "Talek" did not have such a level before. After all, everyone only gradually achieved their current status after the "Night Beast Invasion".

The problem is, people can learn.

The most typical example is Pastor Mary.She was originally just the daughter of an Orion family and had no systematic education at all.

Although the old Drake at that time did not disdain knowledge like many of his hunting team members, and even consciously cultivated his daughter's literacy skills, that was all.

Pastor Ma Li mainly relied on his amazing efforts to secure his position as "Talek's" "number two" in just two or three years.

This status refers purely to the status at the administrative level. For clergy, it is important to say it is important, and it is not important to say it is not important.

However, from the perspective of urban development, it is better for some people who hold high positions in the church but lack political literacy not to participate in city administration.

Beuys is such a dull character.

He still hasn't figured it out yet. From the beginning, it was impossible for anyone to agree with his complaint.

Ma Li has not received the acquiescence or even support of Lord Ige. Will she propose "reform"?

When you criticize Mali's reforms, isn't it tantamount to questioning Lord Yig?
Besides, even if you don't look at Lord Iger's relationship, he, Osval, must agree to the reform.

This is not because Osval is kind-hearted and likes to support civilians.

But the more people there are in the painting club, the greater the power of the director of the office.

It's very simple.

However, in fact, these childish aspects of Beuys are not a problem.

As long as Master Yig speaks clearly, Boyce probably will never mention this matter again in his life.

His simple character may be the reason why he can be reused.

Oswal thought so and couldn't help but look to the right.

The obsidian throne on the wide high platform at the front of the meeting hall was empty.

Iger, the city lord of "Talek" and the leader of the Black Rite, was previously invited to "Belstad" to participate in a meeting, so starting from the painting club meeting on the 4th of this month, the Obsidian Throne has been vacant. .

The regular clergy meeting held by the Ceremony in Black on the fourth floor of the City Lord's Mansion was also interrupted.

Although the three priests occasionally meet here to deal with some difficult matters, most of the time they end up without success——

Without Ige, the "man promised by God," to make the final decision, no one dares to make sweeping conclusions.

In the end, all you can do is delay the situation until Iger comes back.

The bond between pastors has weakened and their effectiveness has been greatly reduced.

At this time, Oswald deeply felt the importance of an apostle——

Even though Lord Ig never said it, as a cleric who had established a deep connection with the gods, Osval could easily feel the extraordinary nature of Ig.

That must be the extraordinary thing that belongs to the apostles.

Now, the apostle has only been away from "Talek" for more than a month, and many problems have accumulated.

No matter how long it takes, no one knows what problems may arise.

Just when Osval frowned and thought, the crowd suddenly fell silent for a moment, and then automatically split into two parts, leaving a road in the middle.

Osval turned his head and looked.

Pastor Mary is back.

Her steps are fast.

Obviously, something happened.
