Chapter 421 Return to Golden Wheat Sheep
It was noon when the awarding ceremony started, but by the time Colin was sent off, it was almost evening.
Noyce took Colin and talked a lot in the corridor, telling Colin almost all the things he thought of that needed attention in detail.
After seeing Colin off, Noyce came to the study.
Sure enough, just as he expected, the elders of the family council were already waiting for him in the study.
"Good afternoon, Noyce." The old wizard with white hair greeted him.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Vincent." Noyce walked behind the desk and sat down.
"You should know why I came this time." Vincent said, "You can no longer use family resources to help Colin unless he joins the Tate family. This is a request that the family council asked me to convey to you. Do you understand? ?”
Noyce nodded calmly: "I understand, is there anything else?"
"It's good that you know. Just use the once-in-a-hundred-year election opportunity. The Tate family does not lack that member."
"But you are Noyce, the Noyce of the Tate family. The interests of the family must come first in everything. Things like this that harm the interests of the family and help a hybrid wizard for free cannot happen again."
Old Vincent adjusted his glasses and babbled. Finally, he paused and looked at Noyes and advised:
"Otherwise, the family council may consider launching an impeachment ceremony against you, and then there will be another turmoil... Oh, please keep it in mind, Gerald."
Hearing this last title that he had not heard for a long time, Noyce suddenly felt a little dazed and sighed in silence for a moment:
"I understand, Uncle Vincent."

"Uu——!"
The speeding carriage slowly stopped in front of the tall arch. Colin got out of the car and looked at the familiar giant carved door in front of him and the left and right figures on the door. He still felt some inexplicable feelings in his heart.
A few years ago, he went through a difficult journey before finally being able to step through this door, but today he has to take the initiative to leave... Situations in life are always unpredictable.
Stepping inside, Colin headed in the direction of Black Castle.
However, after taking a few steps, a figure greeted him first.
"Congressman Colin." The visitor was a third-level wizard with an extremely respectful look on his face.
Colin was sure he had never met the wizard, but he clearly knew him.
"...Who are you?" Colin asked. In the past, when facing a third-level wizard in the school, his tone should have been respectful, but now it is no longer the past, and the roles have been reversed.
"Leach...Leach Hitos." The wizard answered.
The wizard of the Hidos family... Colin frowned slightly.
"On behalf of the Hidos family, I would like to apologize to you for what happened in the past." Leach said quickly, and at the same time handed Colin a delicate wooden box that had been prepared.
"This is a gift from the Hitos family to congratulate you on becoming a member of Parliament. Please accept it."
Colin paused, then took the wooden box.
Leach breathed a sigh of relief and then added: "In addition, the school has also prepared a celebration party for you. I was planning to go find you to inform you about this, but I never expected to meet you here."
"Celebration party?" Colin looked at Leach, paused and said, "I came back this time to actually quit the school."
"Ah, it doesn't matter, Senator Colin. The school has already anticipated this. This celebration party is mainly to celebrate your becoming a member. It will not affect your withdrawal from the school when the time comes."
Leach was not surprised at all and continued to say with a smile:
"The school has prepared many gifts for you. The time of the event is also up to you. If you are in a hurry, it can be held later. The venue has been prepared."
Colin looked hesitant, and Leach continued to persuade:
"Congressman Colin has to deal with the matter of withdrawing from the school anyway. By the way, it will be the same at the party. It will not take up more of your time."
Colin pondered for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, it won't be too late. Let's hold it later."
…
The setting sun disappears below the horizon, and the night falls like a curtain.
Deep in the Tin Sage School, Colin was holding a wine glass and receiving congratulations from strange wizards one after another.
Fortunately, most of these congratulations did not come empty-handed, so he did not feel bored.
"Colin...Congressman." A familiar person came in front of him.
"Your Excellency Nancy." Colin's eyes lit up and he greeted.
The sorceress in front of him was the Inspector of Black Castle. After he asked Noyce for help, she led him to rescue his mentor and senior sister.
"Congratulations on becoming a member of Parliament." Nancy's eyes were a little complicated, and it felt like not long had passed. The ordinary young man at the time had become a big shot that she needed to look up to...
"Thank you." Colin smiled, "Thank you also for helping me rescue my mentor and senior sister."
"You're welcome." Nancy shook her head.
"Congratulations, Colin, our Xisheng School has not had a councilor for a long time!"
At this time, a burly wizard with a beard walked over with a smile. He was not wearing a witch robe or a badge.
But when Nancy saw him, she quickly bowed her head and greeted him:
"Master Leopold!"
"Yes." Leopold nodded and gave Nancy a wink. The latter immediately smiled understandingly at Colin, then turned and left.
"Your Excellency Leopold." Colin also greeted the visitor with a respectful tone.
Wizards have always been respected for their strength. Although he is a councilor, he is only a third-level wizard after all, but the Leopold in front of him is a genuine fourth-level wizard.
"No need to be polite, I should thank you for bringing this honor to the Xisheng School." After saying that, Leopold stretched out his right hand and boldly threw a storage ring to Colin, "Then, this is what you should Got it."
Rather than a wizard, this man with a beard looks more like a mercenary warrior who would appear in a tavern and drink ale.
"Thanks."
"Needless to say these, they are all useless polite words. If you really want to thank me, then stay in the Xisheng School."
Colin was slightly startled and remained silent.
Leopold curled his lips, a trace of undetectable disappointment flashed in his eyes, and then said:
"I'm giving you this because your becoming a member of Parliament has really brought a lot of substantial benefits to the Xisheng School, and you deserve it."
"Okay, wait until the party starts, then go up and show your face briefly, and then you can leave."
After saying that, Leopold was about to leave. Although this party was nominally to celebrate Colin's becoming a member of parliament, for him, it was only possible to take this opportunity to negotiate some profit distribution and establish some relationships with some of the wizards present. is something more important.
Anyway, Colin will definitely leave the Xisheng School. This is something everyone knows.
Except for the nine major schools, who among the other schools can retain members of the Supreme Council?
"Your Excellency Leopold." Colin called out to him.
"Is there anything else?" Leopold turned around.
"I do have something to ask of you." Colin pondered for a moment and said: "I have a mentor and a senior sister in the school. They were sent to the front line some time ago. I want to ask you to bring them back. "
Leopold raised his eyebrows, "It's not enough for you to leave the school yourself, but you also want to leave with your mentor and senior sister? Is the Xisheng School so bad?"
"Your Excellency, you are joking. It's just that I have just become a member of Parliament. I have a territory that urgently needs management. I really lack the manpower to help."
"As for whether the mentor and senior sister choose to leave the school, it will depend on their opinions at that time."
"Okay, I'll just help you." Leopold waved his hand impatiently, paused and then said:
"If there has been something unpleasant for you in the Xisheng School before, if possible, I hope you can stop worrying about it.
Of course, this is not an order, nor is it a threat... It's just that on a certain level, when the Xisheng School faces the nine sects and those real pure-blood families, it is actually no different from your original situation. …This is how the world works. "
Leopold sneered, "Your origin has limited most things. Just like me, even a fourth-level wizard will never be able to become a member of the Supreme Council."
"You are lucky, Colin, but you are not that lucky either. More troubles are still waiting for you behind..."
Leopold turned and walked into the crowd.
Shortly after the party started, Colin followed Leopold to the stage, showed his face, and then left through the side door.
His departure may have been noticed, but it did not cause the slightest ripple at the party that was supposed to celebrate his becoming a member of Parliament.
…
In the Black Castle.
"Congressman Colin, everything has been taken care of. You only need to return the school badge and the golden feather nameplate to me, and you will officially leave the school."
"From now on, I will no longer be bound by the Xisheng School, and of course I will no longer enjoy the various rights and interests of members of the Xisheng School."
"Yes." Colin nodded and took out the feather-shaped Xisheng School badge and the golden feather nameplate from his waist. He held it in his hand. The cold texture was very familiar. After rubbing it for a moment, he handed them over. Reagan in front of him.
"Okay, so now, everything has been dealt with." Reagan took the badge and nameplate and destroyed them in front of Colin.
Colin watched this scene with some emotion in his heart. With a sigh in his heart, he turned and left.
"I'll see you off, Congressman Colin." Reagan followed.
Colin didn't care. After walking out of the Black Castle, he didn't choose to fly. He walked and looked around.
Tonight is a bright moonlit night. The flat stone road under your feet is clearly visible, and the green trees next to it are also covered with a layer of silver gauze. They are not just black silhouettes like in ordinary nights.
The night wind blew by, swaying the branches and leaves, and the whirling sound made the silence of the night even more evident.
‘After tonight, I don’t know when I will come again. ’
As his thoughts flowed, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in front of him.
"Colin?" Bernie was a little surprised and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, we meet... Mr. Reagan again?!"
He suddenly froze when he looked at the familiar wizard next to Colin, and then quickly bowed respectfully.
“Congressman Colin, do you know Bernie?”
"We know each other. We often met each other when we were attending classes at the teaching castle." Colin smiled.
"That's it." Reagan nodded, looked at Bernie in front of him a few more times, and kept him in mind.
"Let's go." Colin said with a smile.
Bernie's sudden appearance diluted some of the emotions in his heart. He still remembered Bernie's sincere advice when he met him a few days ago... and he didn't know what it would be like to see him now.
But after all, it was just a nod of acquaintance, and I'm afraid it wouldn't be nice to talk more.
Colin continued walking forward, followed by Reagan.
Bernie in the back was still there, his mind already in a mess, and he couldn't react until Colin and the two walked away.
‘Colin…Congressman? ’
…
The next day, the Zhenzhihui was stationed.
After a night of waiting, Colin finally waited for Shelley to come out.
Shelley looked tired and was still frowning when he walked out of the door. When he saw Colin's hand put down outside the door, he smiled and asked:
"Have you officially become a member of the Supreme Council?"
"Yeah." Colin nodded and pointed to the badge on his chest.
"congratulations."
"Thank you." Colin smiled.
Although he had heard countless congratulations, this was not the first time Shelley congratulated him on becoming an MP.
But every time I hear it, I smile. It’s not because of anything, but sincere congratulations like this without anything else mixed in. It’s rare in this world.
"I came to you to tell you a piece of news." He continued, "After becoming a councilor, you will be assigned to manage an area, and the place I was assigned is the Tielaimei Plain."
"The entire Tiramei Plain?" Shelley was stunned for a moment.
"Yes."
"Didn't Noyes help you?" A worried look appeared on Shelley's face, "You are only a second-level wizard, and the Tiramei Plain was just attacked by a god..."
"This was elected by vote. Mr. Noyce can't do anything about it." Colin shook his head, then paused and said: "He has done enough for me."
"Let's not mention this matter for now. I come to you this time to say two things."
"The first thing is - I can help the Chasai Chamber of Commerce to become the largest chamber of commerce in the entire Tilaimei Plain, and I can also provide necessary conveniences for the Truth Society. At the same time, I also need the Truth Society to cooperate with me in managing the entire Tilaimei Plain. Plains.”
"The second thing -" Colin paused, "I may be able to help with farmland pollution..."
…
A few days later, Atbold and Lilian returned to the city of Neustadt.
After being really shocked, the two of them chose to follow Colin and leave the Xisheng School without hesitation.
After dealing with these, Colin finally embarked on his return journey, heading back to the Kingdom of Loen, which was also his territory.
