Chapter 1448
Ollie said: “The king’s moves have become bigger and bigger recently and we have to guard against him.
Dak's heart moved and asked: "What has he done recently?" Ollie said slowly: "He is trying to shuffle the members of the parliament. Two members have disappeared forever, and three members have voluntarily resigned. The members are not In the inheritance system, once someone resigns or dies, vacancies will be left. This time, five places were vacated in a short period of time. The entire kingdom has been completely shocked. Not only the forces supported by the king want to run for parliament, but also countless people have seen it. The nobles who take advantage of the opportunity want to take advantage of it."
"Wait a minute!" Dak frowned, "Why wasn't such a sensational thing reported in the newspaper?"
Ollie rolled her eyes and said, "They wouldn't dare."
The water is too deep. Some people want to take the opportunity to float up, but some people avoid it for fear of getting into trouble.
The newspaper office of "Great Sage Daily" has always been very protective of itself, so naturally Yuan Yuan would not interfere in this matter easily.
But the newspaper "Clown Daily" didn't report it either, which is a bit strange.
It can be seen that touching this point easily may be life-threatening.
However, as the parliamentary election begins, various newspapers will be "ordered to report", and they will have to get involved at that time.
Dak said he understood: "The kingdom's parliamentary election system is divided into three parts, civilians, nobles and parliament. After passing, you need to be baptized in the Holy Faith. If you want to become a parliamentarian, you must get through all these four parts. It is indeed a matter of A major event that will affect the entire kingdom. What's more, the greater the opportunity, the more people will look at it and they just don't know where the election will go. When will it officially start?”
Ollie shook his head and said: "Because this election is too special, we can't set a specific time yet. However, those who want to run for parliament cannot wait until the time is determined. Many people have already acted secretly to build momentum in advance."
Dak thought for a while and asked with slight doubt: "What about the Heroes Conference?" Ollie's face became a little heavier: "This is also the most worrying point. The Heroes Conference is a major event in the first place. If it is held at the same time as the parliamentary election, If you do something about it, the whole kingdom will really be in chaos."
Dak couldn't help but feel a headache after thinking about that scene. He rubbed his forehead and said, "Don't worry about this for now. Focus on the current matters. Let's talk about other forces under the gods."
Ollie nodded and said: "In addition to the royal family's hidden line, the power of the Northern Dukes cannot be underestimated. Moreover, they are equivalent to local indigenous people and have a huge advantage."
Duck asked: "Is there any chance of making friends?"
Ollie glanced at Chris and said, "From the information Chris got, at least they won't become our enemies."
Chrissy said: “Yeah, they were pretty friendly to us.
Of course, there is always a knife hidden behind the smile. "
Dak said: "It seems like there is no chance?"
Chris said: "The territory of the Duke of the North borders the Mountain of the Gods. There have always been attempts to develop the Mountain of the Gods, but their actions have been cautious and focused on defense. Although we had communicated with them when we were stationed at the foot of the mountain, in reality They don't agree with us exploring deep into the mountains. They are worried that the dangers in the mountains will spread to the dukedom."
Dak nodded and said: "This is reasonable." Chris said: "So they can't count on it." Dak asked: "What about the elves?"
Chris said: "The elves are hostile to us and don't even have the desire to contact us. It's difficult to confirm their position. But I personally think that if they also want to get something from the Mountain of the Gods or the Heaven, Then cooperation is possible."
Dak frowned and thought for a moment, then said after a moment: "Given the elves' rejection of half-elves, it is indeed difficult for us to have too much contact with them. At present, the only ones that can cooperate are the Holy Cult? Things are really unpredictable. "
Unfortunately, among the people in their operation this time, there were two half-elves. It would be good if they were not hostile to the elves.
"That's basically it." Chris said, "As for the specific situation, we need to wait until we get to the Mountain of the Gods to observe."
Duck sighed slightly: "It seems like a bad fate."
Seeing the worry on his face, Trina said, "Don't worry, Master. We will protect you no matter what."
Duck: "...Yeah."
After the dinner, Dak was ready to return to the dormitory as soon as possible. Moreover, he has not actually informed the magic elves of his plans to travel immediately tomorrow, and there are more things to prepare for.
But as soon as he put down the knife and fork, a person who had been staring at him appeared in his field of vision.
Once, twice, three times...
Dak looked at the figure that passed by his sight intentionally or unintentionally. His originally slightly depressed mood suddenly became more relaxed, and then he couldn't help but smile.
"What's wrong? Master." Ollie was thoughtful.
Dak said softly: "It's nothing, I just remembered that there is one more thing that I haven't done yet.
When the maids showed doubts, Dak waved his hand and said: "You go back first and prepare everything that needs to be prepared. We will meet again tomorrow."
"Okay, Master."
"Master, good night."
"Then let's go first."
"See you tomorrow."
The maids brought the plates and stood up to leave.
When they left the cafeteria, the figure that had been flashing frequently finally came over here and sat down opposite Dak.
Dak looked up at her: "Good evening, Emma."
"Good evening, Dak." Emma Metis paused and said, "I have done what I promised you."
Dak said: "I know this, I will fulfill my promise. But there are still some things I want to know right now."
Emma frowned and asked: "What is it?"
Dak said: "I know that Audrey Jeanne got rid of her [Greed] last night... But what about after that? What special performance does she have? For example, when reading a book, can she still be serious? Will she lose the corresponding desire for knowledge and can no longer focus on the book?"
Emma looked at him and said after a while: "We returned to the Forest Cafe after that and continued the reading club. In fact, including me, everyone is very interested in Audrey. ·Jeanne was curious about her condition, but she did not behave differently than before. Even though [Greed] had indeed been taken away, she was still able to focus on the books and absorb all kinds of knowledge very well. She even had a big fight with several seniors. To be honest, last night I almost thought that your magic elf, the so-called mind transaction, was a complete lie. "
"Is that so?" Dak thought for a while and said, "Then do you think she relied on reason and will to make up for the gap after losing [Greed], or... re-sprouted a new [Greed]?"
Emma asked back: "Didn't your magic elf say that it would take a week to regenerate?"
Dak shook his head and said: "A week is just a general statement. . In fact, this thing varies from person to person. But for most people, it may take more than a week to regenerate the soul that has been taken away. So the one-week time limit is just the beginning. Some people may never get back an emotion after losing it. "
Emma frowned and said in surprise: "Isn't this a very dangerous deal?"
Dake stared at her and said: "But this is the devil's deal!" Emma: "This..."
Dake said slowly: "If you have to gain, you have to give up. Nothing is risk-free. Of course, my magic elf can easily reduce that risk to 0. You know, if you can take it out, you can naturally put it in. "
Emma heard this and then relaxed her brows, muttering in her heart: "I knew he wouldn't. "
Dake said: "So, what about today during the day? Did you see Audrey Jeanne?"
Emma nodded and said, "We stayed up all night and fell asleep in the morning, but when I woke up in the afternoon and went to the library, I met Audrey Jeanne on the way to the library again."
Duck asked, "What happened next?"
Emma sighed and said, "Everything is the same. She spent the whole afternoon in the library today. But I noticed that her behavior has changed a little after losing [Greed]. "
Duck was interested and said, "Why?"
Emma said, "She is not as persistent as before when looking for a book. In the past, whenever she wanted to find a book, she would keep looking until she found it. But today, she would stop halfway or be attracted by other books. This seemingly insignificant change is probably the only manifestation of her losing [Greed]. "
Duck nodded and sighed, "It seems that she is completely relying on reason and will to fill the gap after losing [Greed]. It's really terrible.
Emma agreed somewhat: "She is indeed extraordinary to be the only new [Saint] in the Holy Church in more than ten years."
Dak also got the answer, he stood up and said: "You will become extraordinary soon."
[Soul of the Moon Goddess] drove back to the Magical Animal Club.
[Fairy Tale Animal·Bunny] returned to the side of [Cosmic Brain Beast].
Dak took Emma and walked to the back of the castle.
Since he promised Emma, he would naturally introduce her to the [Secret Snake]. In fact, Professor Sylph and others were also very satisfied with her and had long thought of introducing her to the [Secret Snake].
It's just that Emma is too smart, and her vigilance to the outside world is also very high. Many of the settings made to introduce her to the [Secret Snake] were avoided by her.
A good opportunity, she was avoided by herself.
It is also because of these things that Dark has not introduced her to the [Secret Snake] until now.
Tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, but the castle is still gloomy.
After Emma followed Dak to the castle, she subconsciously raised her vigilance.
Of course, Dak was not the kind of person who would take a girl to a dark place where no one was around.
After confirming that there was no one around, he took out a [ID card] that he had prepared in advance and handed it to Emma.
Emma took the [ID card] and looked at it, wondering: "What is this?
Dak said: "The ID card of [Secret Snake]. "
"Huh?" Emma suddenly frowned, "That's it?" Dak said as a matter of course: "That's it."
Emma wondered: "Nothing else, such as a test?"
Dak said lightly: "Didn't you pass the test?"
Emma asked: "What about the people of [Secret Snake]? Those who are hiding behind the scenes? Or have already joined [Secret Snake]?"
Dark rolled his eyes and said, "Why do you care so much?" Emma said, "But what you said is that you want to tell me about the [Secret Snake]!"
Dak said: "The reason why you want to know the news related to the [Hidden Snake] is not to join the [Hidden Snake]? Now that you have directly reached the end, why should you care about the process?"
Emma was choked for a moment, and after a while she said: "I want to have a process too! What kind of organization is [Secret Snake]? Who is behind the deployment? After joining [Secret Snake] What kind of obligations do I need to bear? Also, what can I get? How can I get more? I must know these!"
Dark shook his head and said: "There is no time." Emma frowned again: "What do you mean?"
Dak said: "Starting tomorrow, I need to take a leave of absence from school. I will tell you what you want to know when I return to school, okay?"
Emma's expression froze and she asked: "Where are you going?"
Dak said: "There are things to do. In short, after you activate and authenticate this [Identity Card], you will become a part of the [Secret Snake]. You will be blessed by the [Secret Snake] and get what you want. , more agile thinking and stronger memory, understanding or understanding will also be increased to some extent..."
Emma: "Huh?"
Dak said: "Don't worry, there are no side effects. Even if you are expelled from the [Secret Snake], you will only take back these things you have obtained." Emma looked down at the [Identity Card] in her hand, biting her lip and hesitated After a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and chose to believe in Dak.
She places great value on her abilities, especially those related to her mind.
But since several people in the second grade joined the [Secret Snake], she found that not only did she lose her advantage, but she was falling behind step by step.
How can she accept this?
But after getting this [identity card], she fell into another contradictory psychological zone-does she really have to rely on this kind of external force?
But in the end, she made her choice.
She activated the [Identity Card] in her hand and joined Sequence Nine. Elgani, who was thrown into the space at the bottom of the lake, felt something, but she just glanced here and ignored it.
After seeing her activate the [Identity Card], Dak waited patiently. Emma closed her eyes, and after feeling some obvious changes, she tried to simulate various problem solving in her mind, and finally found that her brain power had indeed improved!
This amount may not be a lot in terms of flat values, but she is already quite smart. Adding this amount to her is equivalent to breaking through to a certain level in an instant, reaching a level that is difficult for ordinary people to reach.
In short, the [Wisdom Grant] of Sequence Nine is enough to allow her to transform.
Dark gave her five minutes to digest the changes.
After five minutes, he asked: "How do you feel?" Emma's cheeks were already flushed in the night, and she couldn't help but said: "It feels great!"
Dak smiled and said, "As long as you feel good."
Then he raised his hand slightly and said, "In that case, let's go back. I still have some things to prepare for tonight."
Emma responded: "Okay."
"Yeah." Duck nodded and walked back the way he came. Emma started a little late and saw his back.
At that moment, she suddenly had the feeling that this figure would become farther and farther away. This made her suddenly say: "The Kingdom of Gold..."
Duck stopped and said, "What?"
"No, it's nothing." Emma smiled quickly and said, "Thank you
"Nothing." Duck smiled, turned around and continued walking forward. He actually heard what Emma said, but when the future is unclear, many things are hard to say.
Let's wait until it's safe to return and talk about things like this.
After coming out of the back of the castle, Dark said goodbye to Emma and... walked towards the library.
When he mentioned the library to Emma, he had already decided to change his route tonight and go to the library first.
When he arrived at the library, he saw Pandora Doragon immersed in reading behind the counter.
"Dong dong dong." Duck walked to the counter and tapped his knuckles on the table. Senior Sister Pandora raised her head, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "Why are you free tonight?"
Dak showed a soft smile and said: "Because I will be very busy in the next period of time, I want to come and see my senior sister and absorb some Pandora energy.
"You guy." Pandora sighed, straightened up and said, "Do you have a plan?"
Dark walked around the counter, sat down next to Senior Pandora, and said, "There is no plan."
Pandora frowned and said, "If you do this, I will be angry."
Dak said: "Then next time, it's you who will make the plan."
Pandora's deliberately frowned brows could not remain tense for a second, and she said with a smile: "Forget it, you go ahead."
Dak said: "Sister, I just suddenly thought, I just suddenly thought, there is three grade difference between us."
