Chapter 889
"Because I think Liluka Erd is not guilty. At least, her guilt is very light and cannot reach the point of execution."
Hearing her words, the whole place was in an uproar.
"Wow, this is straight forward!"
"Fight, fight!"
"Quickly, Ganesha, pull off her skirt and grab her breasts. I've long been unhappy with her! Why are you pretending to be innocent!"
Ignoring those gods who always thought the matter was not big enough, Ganesha's expression became more serious: "You are covering up by doing this. I will not allow you to violate the laws of the guild!"
However, Astraea said firmly at this time:
"What's the use of an unfair law?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar again.
This is completely an attack on the existing laws of the association!
Hearing this, Ganesha frowned, looked at Astralia solemnly, and said word by word:
"You want to amend the guild's act?"
"Yes!" Astralia answered without hesitation, raised her chin, looked around the crowd, and said seriously: "I, Astralia, hereby apply to initiate a nine-person parliament to re-enact the current Guild Act!”
After the words fell, the whole audience fell silent.
Chapter 1224 Shocked Aphrodite
Council of Nine.
Originating from the place where Orario was founded, the nine great gods who first came to the lower world and made contracts with humans.
These nine gods and humans jointly established the basis of the bill that Orario has been running to this day. Because of this relationship, whenever the gods want to revise the guild bill, they must initiate a nine-person parliament and elect nine representatives to jointly Discuss additions and changes to the bill.
Therefore, when Astoria declared her application for the Nine-member Council, the gods present fell silent. It was not until four or five seconds later that a god muttered:
"Is this necessary? Humans who kill gods can just be executed."
However, Astralia was not used to the idea of the gods at all, and directly said sternly to the gods who spoke:
"I think it's necessary."
"In your eyes, this is just a crazy crime of humans killing gods, but in my opinion, the essence of this matter is the imbalance in the relationship between gods and humans."
When Astraea said this, she suddenly raised her voice and said sternly:
"Are you going to wait until more children raise a flag against you before you decide to change?"
As soon as she said such harsh words, no one dared to talk to her.
Although there are still many gods who think this is making a fuss, most of them are very clear that the case of mortals killing gods has indeed been gradually being fought over the past hundred years.
Let’s not talk about the distance, let’s just say that during the rebellion of the dark faction seven years ago, Serenity Alfia of the Hera Familia and Gluttony Chardo of the Zeus Familia sent no less than twenty gods back to the heaven. Such a number, in Europe, It is rare in Lali's thousand-year history.
Human beings' resentment towards the gods is gradually increasing, and this point has been taken seriously by many gods. Therefore, after Astralia formally raised objections, many gods hesitated and sent assists.
"Sure enough, it's time to revise the power relationship of the dependent clan?"
"It's not a good thing if the gods have too strong control over the dependents. The guild has been having a hard time doing its job these years."
"Is it necessary to do this? I think our current relationship is very good."
"Haha, Apollo, do you dare to say that in front of your own family? There are many people who have been forced by you, right?"
"..."
After a brief exchange, Astralia took the delicate mallet on the table, touched it, and smashed the table with a loud noise, and said again:
"I, Astralia, hereby apply to initiate the Nine-member Council to re-enact the current Guild Act!"
After she finished speaking, she looked around at the crowd with sharp eyes and said seriously:
"Who agrees and who opposes?"
The whole place was silent.
A few seconds later, Astraea knocked on the table again, and then casually threw the hammer aside:
"Start voting."
"According to the guild's bill, the eight people with the highest votes will be selected."
The reason why there are eight is because there is an exclusive seat for Ouranos in the Nine-person Parliament, so naturally only eight people are needed for the election.
As Astoria announced the vote, the working members of the guild distributed pens and papers to the gods present.
The rule of the ballot is that each person can only write one person, and he can cast his own vote. The eight people with the most votes plus Uranus form a temporary nine-member parliament.
Everyone present was well aware of this rule, so they all began to write down the candidates they thought were suitable on the slips of paper.
At the outermost edge of the venue, Freya, who had received the paper and pen, turned her head slightly and looked at Su Jin, who had been standing beside her, smiling and saying nothing. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "It seems that Astraea is not without Have we discussed this with you?”
"What do you want to say?" Su Jin moved his gaze slightly.
"It's nothing." Freya smiled and wrote the name 'Hestia' on her note, squinting her eyes and smiling: "I just want to say, 'Please inform me in advance next time.'"
"If I have the chance, I will." Su Jin said in a perfunctory manner.
"Su Jin, who should I vote for?"
Hestia came over holding the note with a troubled look on her face. She is somewhat aware of the relationship between Astraea and Su Jin, but if she really wants her to vote for Astraea, wouldn't she be letting the other party 'green' her?
"If you don't know who to vote for, then vote for yourself." Su Jin, who had seen through Hestia's mentality, was speechless. You don't want to choose, so you throw the choice to me? You are awesome!
"That's what you said!" Hestia's eyes lit up when she heard Su Jin's suggestion. It was Su Jin who asked her not to vote for Astralia, not that she deliberately made trouble.
Thinking of this, Hestia happily wrote her name on the slip, handed the ballot to the staff, and then waited for the voting to end...
After a few minutes of voting discussion in the venue, the door of the hall suddenly opened with a bang.
The gods, who were originally busy, were stunned when they heard the sound and turned their heads to look in the direction of the door.
At the door, the goddess Artemis, who had long sky-blue hair and emerald eyes, held a long object wrapped tightly in white cloth, panted and bowed slightly to everyone, saying: "Sorry, I'm late, did I disturb you?"
Looking at Artemis who was obviously in a hurry, many gods present showed strange eyes.
"Artemis!" Hestia greeted her friend with surprise.
Seeing Hestia waving at her, Artemis's face paused, her eyes dodged for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and walked over quickly.
"Why are you here so late? No, Astralia applied for the Nine-Man Council, you can choose someone to sign." Hestia said, while taking the note from the staff, and handed the note and her pen to Artemis.
"Nine-Man Council?"
Hearing the voice, Artemis was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looked at Su Jin standing next to him, and then secretly retracted her sight, looking at Hestia in front of her with a face full of fear.
"What's wrong with you, Artemis? Haven't you recovered yet?" Hestia, who noticed Artemis's abnormality, couldn't help but worry.
"No, nothing..." Artemis replied stiffly, but before she could say anything, she heard a hammer knock.
"The voting is over, please hand in your ballots!"
"Ah? It seems that I missed it." Hestia said regretfully for her friend.
"It doesn't matter, after all, I'm late." Artemis finally understood what happened and said with a smile. Now when she heard Hestia's voice, she couldn't help but look at Su Jin subconsciously. This subconscious reaction really made her tremble with fear. Fortunately, Hestia didn't notice the abnormality, otherwise she would be embarrassed to death.
At this moment, Hestia looked at the "long strip" wrapped in white cloth in Artemis' hand with confusion.
"By the way, Artemis, what are you holding in your hand?"
Danger!
The word "danger" seemed to appear above Artemis' head.
Chapter 1225 Return
Hearing Hestia's question, Artemis subconsciously wanted to look at Su Jin, but she forced herself to hold back and pretended to be calm and said, "Nothing, just a newly made arrow."
She couldn't say that what she had in her hand was the Arrow of Orion, right?
You know, as a friend of hundreds of millions of years, Hestia knew very well the function of the Arrow of Orion. If the other party asked why she summoned this arrow, it would be a big deal.
She couldn't lie to Hestia, or the lie would inevitably be discovered by Hestia, her best friend.
And once it was discovered, Artemis couldn't guarantee that she could perfectly hide the fact that the 'Arrow of Orion' was summoned for Su Jin.
Wasn't this equivalent to telling Hestia that she suspected Su Jin was her destined lover?
'Don't ask, don't ask! 'Artemis looked at Hestia nervously, fearing that the word 'Su' would pop out of her mouth.
"Is that so?" Hestia looked at Artemis strangely, feeling suspicious, as if Artemis was thinking something bad about her. But before she could ask more, the staff at the center of the venue had already started reading the votes.
"First place in the votes: Artemis."
"Huh?"
"What?"
Hestia and Artemis were stunned.
Before they could react, the gods who had been paying attention to them laughed loudly.
"Hahaha! She was really scared, look at her stunned look, haha!"
"Hey, hey? So I'm not the only one who voted for Artemis?"
"Nonsense, who doesn't want to see the stunned look of the goddess of hunting."
"It's really pitiful to be sent to the center of the vortex in ignorance... Hahaha~~"
"These guys..." Hestia gritted her silver teeth and looked at those "malicious" gods with spitting fire.
"Calm down, Hestia, this is just a little prank." Artemis quickly went up and held Hestia down, persuading her softly.
However, she was shouting in her heart that she was lucky.
Because she came late and was deliberately teased by her own people, she avoided Hestia's fatal questioning. This was so lucky. Is this also the power of fate?
Because Su Jin and I are destined to be together, Hestia will not be able to find out for various reasons? The hunting goddess, whose thoughts were wandering, couldn't help but doubt secretly. "These guys are so boring." Hestia snorted coldly, and she was disgusted with these guys who always watched the fun and didn't mind the big things.
If Artemis hadn't stopped her, she would have to ask for an explanation for her bestie.
"Second place: Freya."
"Third place: Loki."
The staff read out the two people who were selected later.
"Oh, it looks like it's still the same." Loki put his hands in his pockets, walked to Freya and Su Jin with a smile, and squinted his eyes and said: "The great god who rules Orario must have a seat in the Nine-Man Council. This old calendar seems to be unchangeable."
"Are you showing off to me?" Su Jin raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Loki with his head tilted.
"How do I feel~" Loki said with a smile: "I just want to explain 'Loki's value'."
"Value?" Su Jin looked at her meaningfully, and then smiled: "If you are talking about your position among the gods, you'd better listen carefully to the vote report."
"Huh?" Loki was stunned for a moment, and then heard the words 'Fourth place: Hestia'.
"Hestia? What the hell is this?" Loki just reacted and found that there were many gods who seemed to be secretly observing her. After seeing her confused, he couldn't help laughing.
"Fuck, these bastards..." Loki immediately understood. These bastards had planned to send Hestia to the top to trick themselves!
TNND Knowing that Hestia and I don't get along, so they did it on purpose? Loki's face turned green with anger. She had just shown off to Su Jin, but was stabbed in the back by these bastards. They were simply not human.
'Remember this! ' Loki glared at the gods who were suspected of tricking her, grinding his teeth in anger.
"Huh? I got it?" Hestia pointed at herself blankly, and then suddenly came to her senses, looking at Loki's back with a meaningful expression, obviously with bad intentions.
Noticing Hestia's gaze, Loki turned back suddenly, and looked at her, and saw each other.
"Huh!" x2
The report continued.
"Fifth place: Astralia."
"Sixth place: Ganesha."
Hearing that these two were on the list, many gods couldn't help laughing:
"Oh, oh, oh, they are still fighting. I thought Astralia would be eliminated?"
"The person who raised the topic didn't even have the right to vote. You have a bad taste~~ But this game is always interesting to quarrel. I can already imagine the scene of Astralia and Ganesha confronting each other in the nine-member council."
"Oh~ That's really interesting. Unfortunately, the nine-member council only discussed in the conference hall in the early stage. If you want to see them quarrel, you have to wait until the collective meeting in three days. It's a bit regrettable to think about it."
"Come on, what's the point in the early stage? You know, when did the nine people we picked out not become mortal enemies? They can still be rational in the early consultations, but what about the final meeting in three days? That's the point to watch!"
