Chapter 603: Meeting of Elders

After a few days.

Kaqi arrived as promised, returned from the huge wall to the stronghold in the barren area, and reported to Du Dian: "Master, everything you explained is ready. Nicotine and Greyley are waiting for you to go back."

Du Dian sat on the stone with Hai Lisha, looking at the sunset in the distance, and heard Kaqi's words behind him, without turning back, he only asked, "Is the news not leaked out?"

Kaqi hurriedly said: "No, according to your instructions, I only told Greyley, Nicotine, and your two friends, and no one else knows."

Du Dian nodded slightly, looking at the dim sunset, thinking mockingly in his heart, the night is coming, even the dazzling sun has been eroded to a blood-red hideous, is this a sign of something?

He got up slowly, patted the dust off his sleeves, held Hailisha's slender hand, and said softly, "We can go home now."

Hailisha stood up silently, her expression indifferent.

Kaqi looked at Hailisa who was standing up, and felt a little throbbing in his heart. Every time he faced this girl, he felt the horror of living in a cage with a tiger, and he couldn't help but want to leave as soon as possible, but he knew, The status of this girl in Du Dian's heart seems to be quite high, because he has never seen this cold-blooded boy so close and gentle to anyone.

Du Dian put a few super batteries full of electricity into the hunter's backpack, handed it to Kaqi, and then took the lead under the rope in front of the huge wall. He glanced at Hailisa, and in the instructions he taught, There was no command to climb, so he immediately reached out and hugged her waist, and grabbed the rope with the other hand, clamped the lower end of the rope between his legs, and climbed up with one hand.

Kaqi was worried that the rope would be broken due to the heavy load, so he didn't dare to keep up. He stood on the ground and watched the figures of Du Dian and Hai Lisha gradually go to the top of the huge wall, but he was secretly awed. He didn't expect this mysterious origin to make him The girl, who felt extremely terrifying, followed Du Dian so much, the intimate relationship between the two was fully revealed, and he became more jealous and awed towards Du Dian in his heart.

Du Dian didn't look down, and climbed to the top of the huge wall in one breath, pulled his arm hard, jumped up from the rope with his strength, landed on the huge wall, and glanced at Kaqi who had just climbed the rope under his feet, without urging, while waiting, While looking at the mountains, rivers and land inside the huge wall, with infinite scenery, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

After a while, Kaqi climbed up the huge wall with sweat all over his face, and said, "Young master has been waiting for a long time."

"Let's go." Du Dian hugged Hailisa with one hand, came to the rope on the other side of the giant wall, and slid down the rope.

...

...

Night came quietly.

Starry dots adorn the night sky.

In front of a certain luxurious manor in a bustling town in the business district, horse-drawn carriages arrived one after another. The carriages did not stop outside the gate like ordinary aristocratic visitors, but galloped directly to a spacious open space in the manor. The people who got off the carriage, wearing strange masks, led by the attendants, entered the brightly lit manor castle.

Unlike the quiet manor, deep underground in the manor, there was a bustling sound, like a lively market during the day.

Masked figures roamed the square, picking out the materials they needed in front of the various stalls, or the latest news from the area, and there were also some works sold by alchemists and potionists.

Hawkeye stood at the window, quietly watching the familiar night scene on the square. After a while, the door behind him was suddenly pushed open, and a handsome boy of seventeen or eighteen stepped into the room, with a haughty expression on his face, and said: "Hawkeye, the meeting is about to start. The elder asked you to prepare the materials for the meeting. How are you preparing?"

Hawkeye frowned slightly, he really didn't like being disturbed by others, and at this moment it was the person he disliked the most, doing the thing he disliked the most, a murderous intent flashed in his golden eyes, but Hide it quickly, including the anger in your heart.

He turned around and said with a smile: "Secretary Mal, I have prepared the information and can hand it over to the elder at any time."

The arrogant young man snorted coldly,

Said: "When you are ready, come to the conference room, don't keep everyone waiting."

"Okay, I'll be right there." Hawkeye said with a smile.

The arrogant young man turned around and left immediately, grabbed the doorknob with his backhand and casually closed it, and with a bang, the door shook so that the frame trembled slightly.

The eagle-eyed smile disappeared immediately, and he grabbed an expensive art cup in his hand and threw it out, hitting the wall with a bang, smashing it to pieces. He snorted coldly, grabbed the materials on the bookshelf next to him, and walked out the door.

In the conference room, seven figures sat on both sides of the round table. In the top seat, sat a hunchbacked old man with a wrinkled face, no different from ordinary old people on the street. On his finger, he wore a pair of Only a few people know about the unremarkable dark green emerald finger ring. The price of this finger ring alone is enough to be worth 50% of the wealth of any one of the six major consortiums!

The meeting room was pushed away, and the young man came in. The arrogance on his face had long since disappeared. He bowed humbly and came to the old man, and said in a low voice, "Elder, Hawkeye has arrived."

The old man's eyelids seemed to be dozing off, still half-closed, no response, just hummed lightly.

Soon, Hawkeye also entered the room, and he glanced at the obedient young man standing behind the old man. At this moment, there was no trace of arrogance on the latter's face. He turned his head after only one glance, and said to the old man: "Elder, I have prepared the materials you want." Then, he handed the materials in his hands to the old man.

The old man didn't answer.

The young man took it dexterously and placed it respectfully on the table in front of the old man.

The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Everyone, in a few days, there will be the elders' meeting. Every elders' meeting is nothing more than discussing the ranking. According to the performance of our ninth district in the past six months, everyone thinks , after this meeting of elders, where can we rank in the ninth district?"

Hearing this, the faces of the six people under the seat changed slightly, and one of the hot and plump women immediately said: "Elder, you can't blame us, if you want to blame, you can only blame the elder who took office. He didn't do anything after he took office. You also dismissed our six congressmen, and imprisoned me in the dungeon. Fortunately, you, the elder, came and liberated me. Otherwise, our power in the ninth district would be even weaker."

"Yes!" Another burly man said in a low voice, "Elder, we have tried our best to develop, but after the previous elder dismissed the status of six councilors, he suddenly disappeared. It didn’t work, before our Ninth District was violated, he completely ignored it, causing us heavy losses, if it weren’t for him, our Ninth District would definitely be able to maintain our status as the Ninth District, and even have the possibility of rising!”

"That's right!" The other person immediately agreed, saying, "Elder, if you hadn't arrived in time, our ninth district would have been more chaotic without anyone leading it. I guess it's possible to be at the bottom. Although I have vigorously cultivated a lot of potential newcomers these days , but after all the time is short, I believe that by the time of the next elders meeting, we will definitely be able to restore the ranking of the ninth district..."

The old man raised his hand slightly, stopped other people who wanted to speak, and said indifferently: "The previous elder has a great responsibility, I know this, but during the period when I took over, how did you complete the tasks assigned to you?"

Hearing this, everyone was startled and looked at each other with ugly expressions.

"I'm very disappointed that you, as members of parliament, have such negligent behavior, and the speaker is also very disappointed!" the old man said indifferently.

Hearing the word "Speaker", everyone's face changed slightly, and a trace of awe flashed in their eyes, less respect and more fear.

"The ranking this time will definitely drop." The old man said slowly: "However, for the sake of the bad influence of the previous elder, I will take responsibility for this matter! However, I hope that at the next elder meeting, everyone will not If you make it difficult for me, it will be difficult for me, it will be difficult for everyone, you know?"

Everyone had different thoughts, bowed their heads together and said: "Yes."

"Okay." The pupils in the old man's eyes flicked slightly, glanced at the crowd, and ordered to the eagle eye on the side: "Pass the information to everyone, everyone, this is the eighth district that has mainly opposed us in the past six months. Let’s take a good look at the latest information on District 11, the increase in the number of their three-star alchemists, and the status of a newly born five-star potionist in District 8.”

"There's a new five-star potionist in the eighth district?"

Everyone was slightly startled, and immediately grabbed the information and read it.

The old man said slowly: "When this meeting of elders is over, I plan to capture the Rhea Block in the East District, which is the ancestral land of the Moss family in the Huasheng Consortium. If I can capture it, it will be possible to strangle Moss." The throat of the family, in this way, can also make up for the losses caused by the previous elder..." At this point, a cold wind suddenly blew from outside, making the temperature in the room instantly cold, and it was chilly.

The old man frowned slightly, and was just about to tell the young man to close the door tightly, when suddenly he felt a cold palm on his shoulder, and at the same time, an extremely flat voice rang in his ears: "Everyone, you are talking about me. What?" rw For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our reading institute
