Chapter 468 Lanqi Is Obviously a Neutral Person

The Capitol Building, located on the banks of the Helrom Magic River, is not only the seat of the Protoss Empire Parliament, but also a symbol of Protoss politics, history and architectural art.

The history of this building can be traced back six hundred years, and it is famous for its huge scale across the ages and its intricately carved stone walls and bell towers.

The House of Commons is famous for its iconic blue seats and opposing seating arrangements. It is one of the most important political decision-making places in Helrom, while the House of Lords highlights its tradition and solemnity with red seats and gorgeous decorations. It is mainly responsible for reviewing and amending bills. Franklin Hall is the key hub connecting the upper and lower houses and is responsible for large-scale activities.

The election of the Cardinal of the Resurrection Church, which is about to be ready, will select the only person who speaks for the Resurrection Church in the Protoss Empire. This bishop will become a true partner of the Protoss Empire.

As the clock will soon point to nine o'clock in the morning, most of the attendees in the spacious Franklin Hall have taken their seats and are ready to wait for the start of today's election.

The seats in the outer circle at the top are roughly divided into three sectors, namely the nobles in the south, the nobles in the north, and the nobles in the east of the empire.

Including lifelong nobles appointed by the monarch, with a lifelong term, and the rest are more hereditary nobles who enter the House of Lords by inheriting the title.

The factions in the inner circle towards the bottom are more complicated. They are elected or recommended by the general election of the province, representing various constituencies in the Protos Empire. Their main responsibilities are to formulate and pass laws and review decisions.

The distribution of seats in the inner circle is also related to the factions of the nobles.

After the seats were filled, the entire hall became a map of the factions of the Protos Empire.

Those bigwigs who are active in the imperial capital Helrom are mainly looking at which side they are more closely connected with.

As the governor of the northern snowfield province, Rocky McCarthy is located on the lower right side of the council hall. For example, Duke Morotian Berenhard is located on the upper left side of the council hall because the imperial capital is located in the south.

As for the center of the hall, temporary seats were added to the three empty areas, where the high priests of the three branches of the Resurrection Church sat respectively.

The seats of the high priests of the Tyrant Branch and the Mourning Branch were all full. For some reason, only five high priests of the Silent Branch attended today, who were also the high priests who were stationed near the imperial capital. None of the main forces in the north came.

The three bishops were all present and stood in the open space in the center of the hall.

On the other side opposite to the seats of the nobles and ministers, the throne of the emperor of the Protos Empire was quietly placed, and not far away from it, sat an elf who looked less than 1.5 meters tall.

The emperor of the Protos Empire, Franklin III, looked very nervous sitting next to the elf, making it difficult to tell who had a higher status between the two of them.

As the holder of the [Original Slate-Light], Isis, the strongest Protos who was also respected as the Great Sage of the Empire, exuded a terrifying aura just by sitting there.

But the elf's face showed no interest in anything. She just sat there, holding her cheek high up, looking down at the Protoss Congress members who changed over and over again.

Her meaning was also very clear -

You can pretend she doesn't exist.

But if anyone breaks the rules today, don't blame her for erasing them.

Even though the voting today is about to start, there are still continuous voices.

On the lower level on the right side of the meeting hall, in the area belonging to the nobles and parliamentarians in the north, Earl Milford happened to sit next to Rocky McCarthy.

In fact, in the fixed area, the specific seats are not particularly fixed. When he came to the imperial capital Helrom, his daughter Mithula kept telling him that Rocky McCarthy was his brother-in-law, which made him confused. He didn't know where Miss Hyperion, the priest from the Kingdom of Estellan, knew such an extraordinary fiancé.

At first, Earl Milford was sure that Michela was talking nonsense, but today, with a try-it mentality, he talked to Rocky McCarthy, who was sitting not far away. The other party chatted with him very kindly and friendly for a long time, thanking him for helping Miriam. In the end, Rocky McCarthy simply sat with him, so that many northern nobles around him became full of respect for Earl Milford, because through a few words, they could judge that Rocky McCarthy had a close relationship with the eldest daughter of the Milford family.

"..."

Huparian, who had changed her appearance, sat on the seat of the Tyrant Priests on the left side of the hall, feeling like sitting on pins and needles.

From her angle, she could just see Ranch and Earl Milford sitting on the right side of the opposite hall. The two of them really started chatting. Milford looked like he was discussing marriage for his daughter, which made her very embarrassed.

In addition, recalling the care that the Earl of Milford had given her as a priest of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny a month ago, and remembering that she had become the Grand Priest of Tyrant, she felt like a fallen priest...

As time passed, outside the Franklin Hall, the big clock of the Capitol slowly pointed to nine o'clock and rang the bell.

At this moment, the heavy bell echoed in the hall, and each knock was like the echo of history, stirring up layers of ripples in the calm air of the hall.

All the discussions gradually died down, and everyone's eyes were focused on the high platform in the center, where the election of the cardinal of the Resurrection Church was about to officially begin.

After the bell rang, the elf slowly stood up in solemnity.

Although she is petite, her presence is extremely strong, as if she is the center of the hall, and all the bigwigs of the empire are focused on her.

"In theory, there is a presentation and speech session before the official voting begins. The three cardinals of the Church of Resurrection will have the opportunity to present their ideas and achievements of the past three months in any form. This will be a critical moment for them to prove their value and ability to all the nobles, councilors and other important figures present. That's it."

She began to talk about the following content in a lazy tone, her voice without much emotion, and every word was clearly audible in the hall.

Then Isis sat down again and handed the time to the three cardinals.

The order defaulted to from left to right, starting with the time of the Tyrant Branch.

Sigrid didn't plan to give a speech herself, because she would only scare the nobles. She waved to her direct soldier Gloria to do it for her.

This kind of thing should be what the Son of God is best at, but today before the parliament started, the Son of God had already made it clear to her that as a figure of the Protoss Empire, he would remain absolutely neutral in the parliament today and would not favor her in the slightest. As for whether they could reach a tacit understanding, it depended on whether the two of them had a mutual understanding.
