It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

In addition to the industries run by the wizard family, the scope of his business in the mortal world in his own name is also astonishingly large.

Every minute and every second, a steady stream of gold coins would bounce and flow through his hands.

Traditional wizards, especially those steeped in past honor and unchanged since the Middle Ages, as is common in pure-blood families, will never understand this invisible force.

Perhaps only the executors of Kraft who do everything they can to achieve their missions, and thus advance, know best what kind of changes industry and production will bring to the wizarding world in such an era.

Ling judged Straw well - he was more a businessman than a wizard.

-

Among the ten candidates, only six were left in just three days, and the remaining four almost unanimously announced their resignation, and voluntarily joined the wizard group of the Belusay family to serve for the benefit of the family and the alliance for five years .

Although the authenticity of this so-called voluntary abandonment can be seen from the expressions on their faces, the power of the magic contract is reliable enough, at least much more reliable than the wishes and loyalty of the parties involved.

Listening to the impassioned but uniform speech on the stage, Ling, who was sitting in the auditorium, yawned big.

She felt that the speeches on the stage had no effect on the outcome of the ceremony, those who had already placed their bets could not change their positions just because of a few words of nonsense, and those who had not yet placed their bets were not qualified to stand at the poker table at all .

So even if the people on the stage don't say a word, it's the same for her to do a few backflips on the spot, and ride a unicycle for a few laps.Even the latter works better, at least eye-catching and distinctive.

"Why hasn't Ella come back..."

She muttered something habitually, and then she almost jumped out of the chair.

It would be fine if it was at another time, but as Hyde's trump card, an executive who suddenly expressed his position in this ceremony and presented a key vote should have been written a long time ago.

"Why hasn't she come back yet?"

Ling, who almost instinctively sensed something was wrong, repeated it again.

"Probably something went wrong with the executor... She is the executor after all, and she told all the executors how she summoned herself. It's strange that she has been able to have free time for so long ?”

Shadow was sitting next to her, holding a glass of bluish liquid with a straw in his mouth.

The neutralized and diluted magic potion is meaningless to the alchemy doll. The extra parts to protect the human body and the loss during the preparation process are unnecessary waste in the eyes of Shadow.

So this kind of crude product with a little flavoring added to the ground magic crystal powder is perfect for Miss Doll. If she wants to recover faster, she still needs to drink a few more cups a day.

After the last ceremony, her strength was weakened by half, and at most she could reach the state when she tried to occupy Ayla's body for the first time.It can be regarded as being forced to experience the long-lost childhood together with Hyde.

"So there's no need to think about it. Ella probably just got caught up in some trouble. In this material world, what kind of existence can pose a threat to her?"

"Even Ulysses Philip couldn't have kept her."

Ling couldn't find anything to refute this statement.

Indeed, with Ella's current strength, who in this world could threaten her life?As long as she still has the will to live, no predicament can leave her.

She'd sworn to herself that she wouldn't do anything stupid again... so it must be okay, right?

Ling slowly sat back in her seat. Fortunately, her movements were quick and did not attract the attention of the wizard present.

"But this guy, at this time, he should have at least half an hour to teleport back, right?"

Shadow accidentally bit off a piece of glass from the cup, leaving a small tooth mark.

"There's no need to worry. According to the current situation, we may not need to use our last trump card."

Another voice came from a seat not far from them.

Because smoking is not allowed in the auditorium, Helena looked a little irritable, while Lucien smiled and sat in the seat next to him.

"Helena? Why aren't you sitting on the council side?"

Ling felt a little strange that she was sitting in the guest area on the left side.

"What, do you think I look like a member of the Belusa family?"

She smiled self-deprecatingly, then turned her gaze to the high platform.

"Straw moved very quickly. He quickly attracted several branch families that were shaken by the last ceremony. There are still four places left, and Elaine's votes are only enough for her to protect herself. If If Jerome wants to eliminate Hyde here, he must at least get three times more votes than ours in the parliament. If he can even do this kind of thing, Straw will simply abdicate and directly take the position of Patriarch. Leave it to him."

Chapter 96 The Second Trial

Elaine rarely used her charm magic during her speech. Although the existence of the succubus itself would unconsciously exude an aura of temptation, it could be seen that she was obviously restraining herself.

This kind of action is not in line with Elaine's character. Ling feels that this succubus girl who used to be overconfident seems to be a little absent-minded now, and her eyes are always wandering in the right area where the auditorium is.

After finishing her speech in a hurry, she almost left the stage in a rude manner.

Jerome, on the other hand, started his speech well prepared. He seemed to stand between most of the branch families and independent members with an image of protecting the oppressed.Every word and deed represents their will and interests, and his words are indeed provocative. This is not just a spiritual power in mysticism, but more like a unique personality charm that makes people want to be convinced involuntarily.

He rebuked his master's family for occupying the interests that should belong to the entire Belusa family, and criticized Straw on the grounds that he had made unreasonable decisions and established an alliance with Mephisto, allowing the master's family to occupy all the seats and rights in the Alliance Council.

This can be said to be a rather funny scene in the wizarding world. In terms of magical power, he can't compare with the veteran powerhouse Straw Belusay, and what he says and does at this time is like a grass-eating sheep standing on the ground. On the high platform scolded and lashed out at a strong lion.

The latter just kept smiling and even nodded slightly in agreement with some of the sheep's remarks.

He always has a strange look in his eyes. Although he is in a lower position, it always makes people feel that he is the one who is looking down.

Regarding his performance, Helena in the audience showed disdain, and even spat in the direction where Straw was.

"That's why this guy is annoying. Whether it's outside or in front of his family, he will always have such a fake face."

"When I was 12 years old, I caught Straw doing that scandalous thing with two mistresses at the same time in his private beach house. At that time, my mother died less than half a year ago!"

"...In a fit of rage, I used a magic scroll to set poisonous fire in his house, and then went to the black street alone."

Saying so, she smacked her lips.

"Guess how he reacted when I came back?"

Helena showed little interest in the speech on stage, and started chatting with a few acquaintances on the side.She has a much better impression of Shadow now, and she has probably accepted the strange choice made by her brother.

The corners of Ling's mouth twitched a few times. During the years when the alliance was established, she had often heard Fred mention Straw's scandals when he was young, but she never thought that he would do such absurd things.

"He hit you?"

Lucien, who was sitting by the side, asked casually. Although she didn't think Straw would do this, she still made a guess with the thinking of a scumbag who came over.

However, Lucien really had no position to condemn Straw. Because he was older, he was already well-known in the wizarding world for being maverick.

If you want to just talk about the level of scum, it's really hard to say who is better, this dude who squandered his family resources and was even hired by Kraft, or the other party.

"Him? It would be easy if he could really do that. I hid a high-grade petrification scroll in my pocket at that time. It was a good thing that Uncle Fred lent me. If Straw was going to teach me a lesson, If so, that scroll will definitely teach him an unforgettable lesson!"

"But Straw, with that obnoxious smile on his face, told me about mansions like that...he had twelve more in Renfrewshire. He handed me a bunch of keys In my hand, let me take a walk around the other buildings and choose a witch who is pleasing to the eye to be my new mother."

After hearing this answer, Lucien sighed deeply, feeling ashamed.

He raised his head and looked at the parliamentary seat in the center below the high platform, with something inexplicable in his eyes.

Jerome's speech had reached an exciting peak and ended abruptly, earning a round of applause and cheers from his supporters.

In fact, these supporters were somewhat disapproving in their hearts, and their actions and positions at this time were only because Jerome Belusay offered a high enough price.Knowing that they have been tied to the chariot, they naturally acted extra hard.

It is worth mentioning that Straw, as the head of the family, was the only person in his central area who applauded.

The last person on stage was Hyde.

He was wearing a black tuxedo that was one size smaller, and his brilliant blond hair was combed meticulously. The only decoration on his body was a round black gemstone tied on the front.

He had returned to his juvenile height after the last ceremony.So a slightly smaller adult dress no longer looks cumbersome on him.

At this time, he has somewhat recovered some of his past dazzling demeanor.

Standing on the high platform, Hyde did not introduce himself according to the order and etiquette like the other people, or use his ability to influence the spirits of others and mobilize the fanatical atmosphere like the first two people did.

He just put his hands on the ceiling, without saying a word, and looked around with calm green eyes.

Those who once participated in the siege in the illusion world and had the courage to drag him to his death now unconsciously look away under this pressure.

They were shocked to find that after Hyde Belusay, who they said would only waste family resources, regained a certain amount of strength through the ceremony, they could no longer even have the slightest thought of hostility towards him.

They soon began to sweat on their brows and even doubted their chosen positions.

At this time, the boy said his first words after he took the stage.

"After I get back my things, everything in the past can be written off."

"But you must make due contributions to the family under the new order."

The faces of the wizards changed again and again, and some wanted to snort in disdain, or sarcastically.But suddenly felt that his throat seemed to be stuffed with foreign objects, and he couldn't even speak a word for a while.

-

"He regained more strength?"

The short-haired girl was surprised, it was only the past three days.

"Actually, he is just bluffing. The black gem is actually the damaged Star Ring. He is using star power and previous actions to amplify the uneasiness in the betrayer's heart... It's really cunning. This kind of magic fluctuation can even scare you. If you can’t find it, how many wizards present will notice?”

Shadow smiled lowly, and explained to her in a voice that only Ling could hear.

Although there was some dissatisfaction and habitual sarcasm on her lips, Miss Doll's eyes were full of fox-like pride.

Chapter 97 Fall

Hyde maintained a calm expression, his eyes, the angle of his smile, the frequency of his breathing, every detail was close to perfect.

Although his heart was beating violently in his chest, the silent wizards in the auditorium told him that every step that was happening now was proceeding according to the steps he had arranged.

Hyde, who couldn't leave the manor, couldn't do much, and maybe he could use the shadow's hand to deal with some problems in the past period of time.But since Miss Doll was injured, he ignored Shadow's opinion and asked the latter to stay behind safely.

This time, Straw prepared enough chess pieces for him, whether it was Straw's personal financial resources outside the family, contacts, detailed information on all parties, and even the hole card involving his friend that he didn't want to use.

But it was Hyde himself who really moved the board.

He understood that this was actually a test for Straw on himself.Verify that he can use all available pieces to win.

With Straw's ability, how could he lose to those weak branch families in terms of conspiracy and tricks?

If he really takes over in an all-round way, even if he can't conquer everything with thunderous means and personal charm like Fred, he can still gain the greatest advantage within the scope of the rules of the game.

But it makes no sense to do so.

It was impossible for Heide Belousse to hide under Straw's wings for a lifetime, not to mention that the latter was not the kind of man who would pass on his position to him just because of blood relations.

The reason why Straw is willing to bet on Hyde is that, to put it bluntly, he still values ​​his son's talent and intelligence.Re-cultivating an heir also requires a lot of resources, and if it is only to ensure the interests of the family and the alliance, even if this game is lost, Straw may not have the means to restore the situation in the future.
