Throne of Radiance

In the early hours of the morning, just after dawn, a transnational meeting had already been held. Due to time constraints and other unspoken reasons, the form of this meeting was an online meeting. The people present did not actually attend the meeting, but sat in different countries. Participate in this meeting in the ultra-secret office of the Extraordinary Organization.

"Is everyone here?"

Chandler, who took the lead in initiating this meeting, looked around through the VR projection, and saw a lot of familiar faces in it, all of whom had dealt with them during this period of time, who were equivalent to the authority of the Special Affairs Administration, and the heads of extraordinary agencies in other countries .

Of course, it is mainly the Yao Kingdom, the Morning Star Empire, the Holy Federation, the Sang Kingdom, and the Federation of the Islands, the five larger regimes or countries, and the small countries that are not eligible to participate in the meeting are directly represented by them.

The only special participant was the commissioner of the Kingdom of Roland. After all, the main reason for this meeting was inseparable from the extraordinary world that was happening in the Kingdom of Roland.

Chandler glanced over the main characters one by one, and the forces behind them naturally came to mind.

——The Detective Division of Yao Country, the Special Affairs Bureau of Morning Star Empire, the Haotian Temple of Sang Country, the Congregation of the Islands Alliance, and the Temple of the Sun from the Holy Federation.These are several large-scale official supernatural organizations since the recovery of spiritual energy.

The Detective Department, the Special Affairs Administration, and the Zhongxinhui are all institutions established after the recovery of spiritual energy. The Zhongxinhui is jointly established by the countries of the Islands Alliance, and its internal mechanism is similar to that of a parliament.

The Sun Temple and the Haotian Temple are religious institutions that have long existed in the Holy Federation and Sang Country.

The former holds great authority in the Holy Federation due to the unique system of the Holy Federation, and can be called the helm of the Holy Federation.

Although the latter is not in power or involved in politics, he has a very high status and high reputation in Sang Country - this country was established by pirates, slaves, and refugees in the sea. Their inferiority complex makes them extremely admire the strong, and they are unwilling to admit their true history.

There has always been a myth about their origin in Sang Country: "Hundreds of years ago, the East and West lands fell in the chaos of war at the same time. The refugees who escaped from the war met to go to sea by boat, but got lost in the fog on the sea. They experienced After a month of distress, they were about to be destroyed by storms, submerged by sea tides, swallowed by sea monsters, and they were about to kill each other when they ran out of food. , so that the tide receded, and the sea monsters left. The refugees' ships came to the new sea area smoothly. The refugees who fled from different continents in the east and west discovered each other's existence. They met here to build a new country together. Therefore, nine The country of Sang on the island was born."

This myth perfectly conceals the true background of the Sang people's inferiority complex, and instead gives their ancestors a halo of being favored by the gods. The emperor and the great nobles even claim to be favored by the gods.

Whether you really believe it or not, the myth of Haotian is widely spread in Sang Country, and the Haotian Temple dedicated to Haotian God also has a very high special status, even if it does not have any real power.

For this online meeting, each country sent a master and a pair of two candidates to match.

On the side of the Morning Star Empire is Chandler, the director of the Special Affairs Administration himself, and sitting next to him is Princess Fina from the royal family—Joy’s disturbance in the Roland Empire really scared the life-saving old emperor. The Special Affairs Administration will not be allowed to handle this matter independently. Princess Fina is the eyes and ears of the old emperor. As for the division of interests between the old emperor and the parliamentary cabinet behind this, Chandler does not know.

The candidates for the Detective Department seem similar on the surface. Chandler glanced at the old and the young who looked like old gods directly opposite the VR projection. They recognized their identities at a glance-the director An Yuansheng and Chu Xingrui, a member of the countermeasure team of the detection department, who was also a member of the royal family.

And on his left, between the two detectives, is a middle-aged man in a black martial arts uniform with long hair tied into a high ponytail, and a man who looks at most twenty, with a temperament as cold as the streamer reflecting the snow A dusty beautiful girl.

The former is the owner of the largest Kyoto gymnasium in Sang Country, and currently one of the best martial arts masters in Sang Country, Kitamiya Shin.

Before the recovery of spiritual energy, the Beigong family was a martial arts family with a long history, and Beigong Xin was a generation of masters who had fought all over the martial arts world.Resurrection of spiritual energy, after receiving the teaching of "Martial Arts", this person's progress has become more and more rapid. It is said that not only the cultivation of internal energy is advanced, but also the first level of martial arts, "seeing yourself".

But Bei Gongxin is not the chief envoy of Sang Kingdom this time. The real chief ambassador is the girl sitting next to him, who is also the most outstanding witch of the "Haotian Temple" generation, Baili Zhaoxue.

——Sang Guo's double surname is very common, and almost all nobles have double surnames.

Even though Chandler's gaze was drawn back immediately, and everyone only appeared in the form of VR projection, Baili Zhaoxue was still aware of the gaze that glanced at her for the first time. She raised her gaze and looked back, as if There is a layer of quiet moonlight.

What a keen insight and perception... At such a young age, being able to participate in the meeting as the chief envoy seems to have taken over the power of the Haotian Temple. Ability, blood, and talent are indispensable.

Thinking of this, Chandler calmly glanced over the two people from the Congregational Church, and looked at the representative of the Sun Temple on the right.The first thing that caught his eyes was a red robe.

Chandler's pupils shrank slightly.

Cardinal!Second only to the Pope!

He subconsciously glanced at the other person's face.

It's a pity that the other party's face was blocked by a mask painted with the pattern of the sun god, which was also in line with the painting style of some clergy in the Sun Temple, and more in line with the style of previous archbishops.

Almost immediately, a figure appeared in Chandler's mind. When the opponent was all-powerful, he was still a pawn.

He was a very capable person. The Sun Temple has grown to this day, and the other party has made indelible contributions.

More than ten years ago, the sense of existence of the government of the Holy Federation was not as weak as it is today. The cabinet at that time still wanted to weaken the Temple of the Sun and seize power, but it was defeated step by step under the means of that person. The temples stand side by side, but they have already been completely suppressed, and they are about to surrender their authority completely.

It's a pity that just ten years ago, when the cabinet was suppressed to the extreme and the authority of the Temple of the Sun was elevated to the extreme, that key figure suddenly resigned from the position of the archbishop in red, and there was no news about it—a strange incident The fire killed all his family members and broke his heart, making him completely tired of the struggle for power.

As far as Chandler knew, there were a lot of rumors about this matter, most of which tended to be done by the big figures in the cabinet at the time, and some conspirators believed that the people inside the Temple of the Sun were involved, and the Pope at the time was very suspicious.

When the authority of the Sun Temple is raised to the extreme, that person's prestige is also raised to the extreme. Even inside the Sun Temple, not everyone wants to see this. Not surprising.

Not long after, the crimes committed by the big cabinet figure in private were exposed one by one, and he was sent to prison, never to see the light of day again, and his subordinates fell down one after another, so many people agreed with the first guess Come true, the rumors are true, see it all as revenge from someone.

That person is the former cardinal, Anosi.

Even though Chandler had never met the man who almost turned the situation of the Holy Federation around, he had seen the other party's appearance in many past images.The crimson bishop's robe and the mask painted with the pattern of the sun god are the symbols of the other party.

Therefore, this special outfit suddenly appeared in front of him, almost making him think that the all-powerful figure had returned, but of course it was impossible.

Chandler's ups and downs of thoughts returned to calm, he looked away from the current cardinal, and after confirming that everyone was present, he was the first to speak as the convener: "Everyone here, please respect each other. Presumably there is no need to introduce any more, before the meeting starts, I think everyone should reach a consensus and clarify the purpose of this joint meeting—"

Having said that, he tapped lightly on the table with a solemn expression.

"Resolve the Rubik's Cube incident in the Roland Kingdom and rescue thousands of trapped people, especially tourists and guests from various countries. We must not sit back and watch them encounter danger in the Roland Kingdom without helping them."

The emissary of the Kingdom of Roland who was cue showed a weak and innocent smile, and actively raised his hand and said, "Our Kingdom of Roland is willing to cooperate!" Who made their crown prince also among the trapped people?What's more, people from so many countries are also besieged...

Everyone else either nodded or spoke, and reached an agreement on this matter, expressing no objection.

"Since this is the case, the first thing we need to do is to exchange intelligence and exchange information. This is the basis for cooperation between countries." Baili Zhaoxue pointedly pointed out the key point with a cold expression, "Otherwise, this meeting will be meaningless, and cooperation will be meaningless." Nothing to talk about."

She raised her eyes to Chandler, and said in a certain tone: "Since the Morningstar Empire was the first to initiate this joint meeting, you must have quite crucial information in your hands, right? For example, the reason for this incident? "

Sure enough... Chandler didn't hide it, who let him be tricked by his "good friend". Although this friendship was quite heavy and deceiving, when he looked back and thought about it, it was also an opportunity. Now I am afraid that he is the only one who understands the reason of the whole incident best, and having intelligence information that others do not know, in many cases, means the initiative.

Although he doesn't intend to exchange this information for any benefit, as long as it is disclosed, he who sent the invitation letter to lure Joey to the Kingdom of Roland will certainly bear pressure that he shouldn't have to bear, but it can also be a solid foundation for him and this powerful casting spirit. Teacher's "friendship".He will be the bridge between the others and Joey.

——This is his most important bargaining chip.

After thinking about the pros and cons, Chandler took the initiative to hold the meeting, determined to turn disaster into blessing and seize this rare opportunity.

Under the gaze of everyone, he nodded calmly: "Yes, I probably know the reason for this incident."
