Ren Yanyong paid attention to the voting column as soon as he went online. Therefore, he was the first to witness the whole process of Tan Baishan's online and offline including voting actions before the meeting.

Ren Yan was permanently speechless.

As a president of the Presbyterian Church who pays great attention to his words and deeds, during his century-long tenure, Ren Yanyong has never seen such an outrageous thing in decades.

Outrageous, outrageous!

For the key points that he can see, there is one and only vice president He Zhuang who is in sync with his thinking, and the other officers don't even find the right focus.

"Hey, why does Lao Tan go online and then go offline? Isn't the network in the northern border bad?"

"How is it possible? Since the military system was changed, the network has not been difficult for decades. A complete set of battleship data is sent daily, and the transmission is very smooth."

"So what is Lao Tan doing, who will ask?"

There was only one who brushed aside, "How do I remember that there have been a lot of star beast attacks in the northern border recently, Marshal Tan said that they are going to hunt a wandering to the northern border in the snow forest today?"

Well, it explained why Tanbaishan went offline, but, but...

Ren Yanyong said quietly, "Don't you guys look at the voting screen?"

The tone was so sad that there was nothing to add, "Marshal Tan went online for two seconds, and immediately logged off after voting."

It is not an exaggeration to say that he went online just to vote!

Sure enough, when Ren Yanyong mentioned it, all the marshals, deputy marshals, and senior military officers all looked suddenly enlightened, and went to the voting screen one after another.

Ren Yanyong closed his eyes in this pain, there is no hope, let it be destroyed!

Is this the difference between civil servants and military officials?If it wasn't for the empire, would he, who hadn't eavesdropped on the Legion meeting for decades, come up to suffer this crime? !

For the empire!All for the Empire! !

Ren Yanyong opened his eyes again after recited his professional beliefs twice in his heart.

When I opened my eyes, I heard a dialogue that hit the soul.

"It's weird to talk about it all the time."

"Is it because you are afraid of being rushed by the elders, so you just play after voting? I have learned."

"It still has to be an old talk. Look at how agile they are. I would have known that I would not have pushed the inspection. After the internal discussion, I went up and voted and slipped back to get down to business."

"Yeah, the beast tide is coming..."

"It's not just the beast tide that's coming, but also the gang from the Alliance..."

After some conversation, the focus was lost again virtually.

Ren Yanyong's forehead was throbbing with blue veins.

The vice president, He Zhuang, coughed lightly, and reminded, "Although it's a bit strange to say this, but all the marshals and officers, our Elders' Council's monitors have arrived. A friendly reminder, the Elders' Council will not report you without reason. ..."

"Okay, I got it, I got it, President He, please don't read it, what I said about the Presbyterian Church is wrong, withdraw it, withdraw it!"

It was the officer who said that Tan Baishan was afraid of "being rushed by the elders".

Ren Yanyong reached out his hand and pressed the blue veins on his forehead that were jumping happily.

He Zhuang smiled, no surprise at all.

Although Xu Mirou, the vice president, was monitoring this kind of legion meeting for the first time, she was extremely strong inside. He Zhuang refused to answer, and she replied politely, "The elder meeting is not aimed at everyone, but just discuss the matter after hearing it."

"I know."

"Understood."

"Understand."

The officers were afraid that Xu Mirou would come out in a bunch of oblique ways, so they hurriedly stated their position.

Xu Mirou smiled, and the painful masks on the faces of the officers may not be much better.

The twisted relationship between the Presbyterian Church and the Legion can be seen.

The elders smiled awkwardly but politely, and the officers also responded with painful but polite smiles. This harmonious atmosphere of mutual love lasted for dozens of seconds in silence before the door of the conference room was pushed open. .

Finally, Chi Yao, who initiated the meeting, arrived with his personal companions.

The officers of the legion and the elders were silently relieved.

Chi Yao: "Is it all here?"

Entering the door, the entire meeting room is a large holographic projection sensor. The figures of the officers and the elders are once again condensed in the form of projections, and everyone who enters this meeting room will turn their every move into a data stream, which is projected. The method is displayed on the devices of everyone participating in the meeting.

There may be slight differences in the form of expression depending on the terminal, but the principle is the same.

Not waiting for Ren Yanyong to get entangled in talking about Baishan, seeing no one answered, Chi Yao ordered Fei Chudao, "You order someone."

"The first legion is complete, the second legion...the elders will monitor one president, two vice presidents, and the seventh legion is absent." Suddenly seeing something, Fei Chu said again, "Wait, the records show that Marshal Tan is online After two seconds, vote and get off."

Ren Yanyong hurriedly said, "That's right, Marshal Tan Baishan left after voting, I saw it with my own eyes."

Ren Yanyong let out a long breath, and said as objectively as possible, "I know that the legion meeting is busy with military affairs, so there are not so many rules and regulations in daily life, but it is too... too rude to go online without seeing your majesty."

Shi Xing listened to this long pause, and privately felt that Ren Yanyong's evaluation of the word "disrespectful" was already very restrained.

In fact, it was true. The vice president, Xu Mirou, glanced in Ren Yanyong's direction in amazement. If there was a problem, the elders would first write a self-criticism, and then hold a unified meeting to make a report.

Xu Mirou had never heard such a gentle comment from the president on violations of rules and disciplines.

Chi Yao nodded.

Before he could say anything, the solidarity between the regiments and officers was revealed.

The Marshal of the Fourth Legion said: "Then what, don't be angry, Your Majesty, the old man may have encountered something, it may not be intentional."

The deputy marshal followed suit, "Yes, maybe there is something urgent to talk about the marshal."

The Marshal of the Fifth Legion added, "I've been talking about hunting star beasts today. Recently, the number of star beasts in the northern region has suddenly increased. Old Tan always talks about the rules..."

After a good start, two or three people said something, followed by a scattered group of people who defended.

Shi Xing privately sent a message to Tang Mi, [Are the legions usually so united? 】

I got a touching answer, [No, the Legion likes to fight against the Council of Elders. If President Ren hadn’t brought it up, I guess everyone would not defend it in such a unified way]

Shi Xing was deeply moved by this answer.

Chi Yao smiled, raised his hand to stop everyone from speaking, and said, "Understood, but the truth is not what you think."

Chi Yao said positively: "The number of star beasts breaking out in the northern border has increased recently. Some time ago, we focused on killing them. Today is the hunting of the last star beast wandering in the ice and snow forest. Tanbai Mountain reported to me two days ago. If you don’t want to ask for leave, I agree.”

Ren Yanyong was startled, "Then vote..."

Chi Yao: "I think I wanted to be more formal. Before I set off, I came up to make a statement."

Just as Ren Yanyong wanted to say that this statement was perfunctory, the palace clerk said, "Marshal Tan submitted to the palace a document of joint intent signed by officers of the Seventh Army two days ago."

The chief clerk called up the document, and the official document acknowledging Shi Xing's acquisition of military power appeared in the center in the form of a projection, and the officers checked it one after another.

Ren Yanyong also retrieved an electronic file, scanned it, and found that the format of the text was neat, and at the end there was a leave note for today's meeting, which explained the situation of the northern star beasts in detail. Finally, there was a long list of officers' signatures to show that The supportive attitude of everyone in the Seventh Army.

Chairman Ren didn't finish reading, and when he saw the name "Tan Chi" following Tan Baishan, his heart skipped a beat.

Reminds me of the rumor I heard...

Before he could think again, the officers gave the answer first.

"This format is standard enough, Xiaochi probably drew it up."

"All officers of the Seventh Army at the rank of general and above signed the agreement."

"Indeed, everyone is equal."

After giving everyone some time to confirm, Wei Wan, the clerk, asked, "Do you have any objections to the Seventh Army's vote?"

All the major legions shook their heads.

The clerk looked at the three people who came from the Presbyterian Council, "What about the Presbyterian Council, do you recognize its effectiveness?"

Ren Yanyong said with difficulty, "I agree."

After finishing speaking, he added, "After the meeting, can Wei Wenshu forward the electronic file of the original document to the elders? We need to file it."

"nature."

The meeting continues.

Except for the Seventh Army, the marshals and deputy marshals of the second to sixth armies are all present.

Three elders came from the Council of Elders, the president Ren Yanyong, the vice president He Zhuang, and the vice president Xu Mirou.

Chi Yao has two identities, one plus Fei Chu Fuqing, who represents the marshal and senior officer of the First Legion.

The second level is based on Chi Yao as the core, plus Shi Xing, Wei Wan, the chief secretary of the palace, and Tang Mi, the secretary of the palace, to form the direct line of the royal family who held this meeting.

Divided by camp, there are tripartites, royals, legions, and elders.

The absence of the Seventh Army has been explained, the vote has become effective, and it has officially entered the topic of today's meeting.

Except for the Seventh Legion, Chi Yao did not deliberately contact the major legions in advance to talk about the content to be discussed in today's meeting.

But the Council of Elders has contacted them. As long as the Legion does not turn against each other, the Council of Elders has already learned the core content of the meeting in advance.

Therefore, except for one or two legions who really know the content of the meeting, most people know it well, and the stage of introducing the core discussion content is just a formality.

After the cutscenes were over, everyone had a detailed understanding of the content of the meeting and knew what to vote for before the meeting could be officially started.

Ren Yanyong thought about the legion.

The first legion is the royal guard, and Chi Yao's private army must have supported Shi Xing in gaining military power.

The Seventh Army voted in an unexpected way and is currently in favor.

That's two votes in favor.

There are two, three, four, five, six, five legions left.

The Second Legion and the Council of Elders have a good relationship, and the marshal is Ren Yanyong's old friend. In the past week, Ren Yanyong has expressed the opinions of the Council of Elders in detail. The vote against is solid.

The Third Legion has a special status. Lu Guangyu's status as a prince awarded with military exploits gave the Third Legion a faintly higher prestige in the imperial capital than the other legions. The Elders have contacted them. The attitude of the Lu family is neutral and objective, and the Elders can't say anything. Just let them think about it.

Neither the Fourth Army nor the Sixth Army was close to the imperial capital. Like the Seventh Army, they were relatively independent and had a more objective attitude. They had very little contact with civilian institutions. Ren Yanyong was not sure how they would express their views.

The Fifth Legion is the guard of the imperial capital and its surrounding areas. It has always followed the lead of the royal family, and it is estimated that it is a vote of approval.

The [-]st, [-]th, and [-]th legions all agree, and there are already three votes in favor here.

The Second Army opposed, but could not stand alone.

The final decisive votes are produced among the neutral third, fourth, and sixth legions.

Ren Yanyong didn't know what the result would be, but Tan Baishan's overwhelming opinion caused him a lot of pressure.

There are already three legions supporting Shi Xing, and even if there is one more, it is not a situation that the elders want to see.

The clerk concluded, "The granting of military power has always followed the law. The laws of the empire have clear regulations, but it can also be voted by the major legions. Due to the racial characteristics of His Royal Highness Time Star, His Majesty decided to use the legion vote to determine whether to empower or not. .”

"It's also the main purpose of calling everyone here today, to discuss the granting of military power to His Royal Highness Shi Xing."

"The Presbyterian Council should have contacted you in advance, and I have explained it in detail today. What do you think?"

Following the clerk's words, the voting session officially began.

A certain marshal said first, "The First Army has already made a decision, so we can announce it first."

Fei Chu replied, "A decision has indeed been made. It adopted the same method as the Seventh Army, where officers voted. The result was a unanimous vote. Here are the documents."

The second full-pass voting document was projected to the center, and cold sweat dripped from Ren Yanyong's forehead.

Vice President He Zhuang opened it, read it in detail, nodded to the old president and said, "All the officers of the First Legion, together with His Majesty's signature, are on it."

Ren Yanyong nodded, inhaling in one breath, unable to exhale.

After everyone checked, the attitude of the First Legion was there, and the vote became yes.

After the second vote, the atmosphere fell into silence again.

Chi Yao, "Those who have already made a decision can vote first, and then discuss after voting."

If the Fifth Army was as Ren Yanyong thought, the Marshal spoke up and dismantled the basic idea, "The Fifth Army has been stationed in the imperial capital and more than ten surrounding cities to protect everyone's safety and maintain the normal operation of the city order."

"The Fifth Legion is ruled by the imperial law. It is customary for the partner of the direct line of the royal family to obtain half of the military power owned by the direct line. There is no need to vote for empowerment. This time, the Fifth Army still decided to follow the imperial law, fundamentally Acknowledging the legitimacy of empowerment, so, we agree."

To put it simply, since the law stipulates this way, they will listen, follow the law, and vote for it.

The words are extremely high-sounding, but they are also in line with the fifth army's military principles.

Because of its location, the Fifth Army has always used the First Army as the weathervane to enforce orders and prohibit them, and to follow the law is indeed something they can do.

The clerk nodded and reported, "The Fifth Army agrees, will other legions and elders object?"

After asking one by one, the Fifth Army also showed a vote of approval.

Ren Yanyong had a heart attack.

Fortunately, he still has the Second Legion on his side.

After the fifth army agreed, the marshal of the second army came out and repeated the concerns of the elders, and voted against it.

At this point, all those with a clear attitude have voted.

Three votes in favor and one against.

The third, fourth, and sixth armies are left to vote on the spot.

Marshal of the Third Army, that is, Lu Guangyu, whom Shi Xing knew very well before, was the first to speak.

It is in line with his strong personality, and also in line with his semi-civilian status, which has been mixed in the Senate to vote and make decisions all the year round.

Lu Guangyu asked, "Does Your Majesty want to hand over half of the military power to His Highness Shi Xing?"

Half of Chi Yao's military power, strictly speaking, is divided into three large armies and half of the first army.

The answer was negative, "Not now."

Chi Yao sternly said, "All the seven armies belong to me. Except for the first army, there are six remaining armies. Shixing should not be able to manage them within a year, and the main decisions will belong to me."

Lu Guangyu: "So we can only guarantee that within one year, we will not be classified under the jurisdiction of His Royal Highness Shi Xing."

Chi Yao: "Not necessarily. I will plan according to his growth. Now he doesn't have this ability. If he grows fast, I think he can do it within a year, and he will gradually decide between us. belonging."

Lu Guangyu nodded, behind him was his adjutant and eldest son Lu Li.

It has to be said that Ren Yanyong sometimes likes Chi Yao's straightforward nature. At least now, Ren Yanyong can feel Lu Guangyu's reluctance.

Shi Xing stood beside Chi Yao and didn't say anything.

Lu Guangyu really worried too much, no matter what, he would not be in charge of the Third Army.

But these, there is no need to say.

Besides, whether Tan Shao told Lu Guangyu about the matter between him and Lu Lu was hard to say. Shi Xing would not find Lu Guangyu's attitude unusual, as he himself was a very assertive official.

After being quiet, Lu Guangyu: "It's like this inside the Third Army. Most officers don't have a special preference. After hearing the vote and discussing it in a meeting, they all decide to take my opinion as the standard."

Chi Yao nodded.

Lu Guangyu: "I recognize the empowerment of the law, and from the other side, I also feel that the concerns of the Presbyterian Church are not unreasonable, so I didn't think it through before coming here."

Chi Yao: "What about now, Marshal Lu, have you figured it out?"

Lu Guangyu pondered for a moment and asked a question, "Has His Royal Highness Shi Xing been ill in the past six months?"

It was a good question, and Ren Yanyong was overjoyed when he asked it.

Chi Yao thought for a while, and said everything about Shi Xing's high and low fever, and also said that it was the ability improvement and the second awakening.

Lu Guangyu was surprised, "His Royal Highness Shi Xing has two talents?"

"So far, yes."

Lu Guangyu was silent again, tangled for a while, and said with difficulty, "But in the process of improving abilities, there are still certain risks."

This is also true, although it seems that the last few times are controllable, but Chi Yao was worried when he had a fever, so he nodded.

Lu Guangyu finally said, "Then, from the perspective of the stability of the empire, the Third Army may vote against it."

The clerk affirmed, "That is your right, Marshal."

Lu Guangyu eventually voted against it.

Two votes against, three votes in favor.

Only the Fourth Army and the Sixth Army remained.

To everyone's surprise, the Sixth Army abstained.

The Marshal of the Sixth Army said, "We think the same as the Fifth Army. We didn't need to think about these things. Our officers can't analyze the words of the Presbyterian Church..."

This sentence almost angered Ren Yanyong who had been talking so hard in the communicator before.

What does it mean to be unable to analyze, and I can't explain clearly when talking to pigs.

Is there any genetic segregation between civil servants and military officials?hateful! !

It's also brains, but you officers use them!

Marshal of the Sixth Army: "So after internal discussions, we decided to abstain. In fact, it is the same as the Fifth Army. If the number of votes for and against is equal, and it is according to the law, we should vote again. If we can decide, we will not participate. .”

The Sixth Army will be stationed at the border for ten years, and it is the most important task. Recently, it has to prepare for the protection before the beast horde. It is indeed very tight in time. They abstained, and Chi Yao also understands.

Nodding his head, it's over.

So far, two votes against, three votes in favor, one abstention and one pending.

The final result depends entirely on the opinions of the Fourth Army.

Fortunately, the Fourth Army was not without ideas. As a result of their internal meeting, they did not think about giving up the right to choose. Since they were uncertain, the Marshal made the decision on the spot. The essence was the same as that of the Third Army.

The Fourth Legion's speech was very interesting, looking at Shi Xingdao, "Can I ask, does His Highness Shi Xing want the military power to be empowered?"

Receiving Chi Yao's affirmative gaze, Shi Xing replied, "I want it."

Shi Xing's angle is also very tricky, "I don't think there is any problem in fighting for my legitimate rights and interests."

These words imply two layers at once, one is on the bright side, and the other is slightly satirizing the Presbyterian Church.

Justifiable rights and interests, but the elders objected, and the officers on the list heard two subtexts that could not be said. Think about it, it is also the same reason. The empire is good, as the party who died, it is naturally impossible to figure it out.

The Marshal of the Fourth Army nodded and agreed, "That's the reason."

Without waiting to win over, the Marshal of the Fourth Army took the initiative to show their cards and said, "Many people in the Fourth Army also hold this view and think that they should support you, but the analysis of the elders is not unreasonable. If..." If you have a deep look Glancing at Chi Yao, he said, "If Your Majesty loses his decision-making ability, your personal stability will determine the direction of the empire for a period of time."

"If you are capable, everyone will be happy with the results."

"If you can't, I'm afraid the empire will have a very difficult time."

"And the hardest part of all this is that we don't know you well. Based on this, I think every legion will be under pressure to make such an important decision."

After the words fell, all the marshals present nodded.

Everyone also bit the bullet and voted.

The Marshal of the Fourth Army said, "The death rate of the Blue Stars is high when they are mature. In fact, the Presbyterian Council has missed a possibility, that is, if everything goes well, it will be fine for the legion to be handed over to you. You have a problem in the middle." , The sudden letting go is also an impact on the command and dispatch of the legion."

Straightforward.

Frank to the point of sharpness.

But Shi Xing doesn't hate it, as long as he really wants to solve the problem, he thinks it's good.

Shi Xing also admitted, "You are right, I cannot promise this."

Just as Chi Yao was about to say something, Shi Xing grabbed his forearm, shook his head slightly at him, and continued, "Your Majesty is also a human being, so naturally you can't. Your concerns do exist."

When Shi Xing spoke so frankly, Ren Yanyong felt amazing after hearing it.

If Shi Xing wasn't from Blue Star, this kind of bearing would be...

Thinking of something, he shook his head again, Ren Yanyong thought, it's a pity that he is from Blue Star, and this cannot be changed.

The Marshal of the Fourth Army actually had something to say, but Shi Xing admitted it so quickly, and because he was young, it was not easy to speak out. Besides, it was like bullying a child if he was not good.

Coughing twice, the Marshal of the Fourth Army changed his angle, "I joined the army with Tan Baishan. I still know Tan Baishan's personality. I'm curious why everyone in the Seventh Army chose to support him. Your Highness, can you help me?" Am I puzzled?"

The stars look down.

The hand slid down by two points, and for a moment, he felt something. Shi Xing didn't make any movements, but he felt support.

Chi Yao changed his movements and held his finger that was originally grabbing the opponent's forearm.

Feeling the dry palm rubbing his fingers, Shi Xing finally chose to answer from the heart.

"First of all, everyone on the list should have heard the news, and I don't think there is anything to hide."

Taking a deep breath, Shi Xing said, "I cured Tan Chi."

The Marshal of the Fourth Army was taken aback, "What do you mean, cured?"

"Literally, my level is relatively high."

Everyone was shocked. The Seventh Army did not publicize this news to the outside world, and Chi Yao didn't bother to use it to win people's hearts, so everyone only knew that Shi Xing had treated Tan Chi. As for the results of the treatment, no one had thought about Tan Chi's injury. Can be cured.

"Cure? Cure... well? To what extent, is the spiritual sea completely..."

Chi Yao interjected, "It literally means that the spiritual sea has been completely restored. After about half a year, when the general in the conversation has completely recuperated, everyone should be able to see him on the front line."

Chi Yao speaks absolutely faithfully.

This news caused quite a stir in everyone's hearts.

If Tan Chi can be cured, so high level, does that mean that they will...

Oh no, can their colleagues who were injured before, officers, and subordinates also be able to...

Once this possibility is planted in the heart, knowing what it means, everyone looks at Shi Xing differently.

The Marshal of the Fourth Army regarded Tan Chi as his son and nephew, so naturally his expression changed a lot.

Shi Xing didn't want to use this as the main point, he continued.

"Secondly, I think the most influential thing to discuss about the marshal's opinion is probably that I can help hunt high-level mutant star beasts."

"My second talent should be able to protect everyone."

"After returning to the imperial capital, Fei Chu and I have already discussed several tactics in the First Army. At present, the Alliance is visiting and there is no time to practice. I believe that after sending the Alliance away, we should be able to start actual combat tests."

The Marshal of the Fourth Army immediately said, "What do you mean? Protection? How to protect?"

Fei Chu: "Time Star can create a special barrier. The mutated spiritual power of star beasts, that is, the kind of energy that can penetrate our spiritual sea, can be stopped by this barrier."

Everyone was shocked again.

Ren Yanyong was numb.

I only thought that Time Star has the ability to heal, but if Time Star has the ability to fight at the same time, it can assist soldiers on the battlefield... These are two completely different things. It can protect the officers from being injured from the root cause. impossible...

Some military officers responded quickly, "Is there anything to prove?"

Chi Yao: "There is a combat video, provided by the Seventh Army."

"At Fei Chu's place, you can let it go."

So next, Ren Yanyong spent the most torturous 10 minutes of his life.

Ren Yanyong's heart skipped a beat when he saw that Shi Xing possessed leadership talent.

When he saw that special barrier, Ren Yanyong's eyelids started to twitch wildly.

Then... when he saw the mutated spiritual power of the star beast being tightly bound in the time and star barrier, and when he saw the eyes of the officers around him change from shock and disbelief to fanaticism, only four words emerged in Ren Yanyong's mind——

The tide is gone.

After the video was played, it was as Ren Yanyong expected.

The Marshal of the Fourth Army voted in agreement without hesitation, and said that in the future, the Fourth Army could be loyal to Time Star and become a governing legion within the scope of Time Star's military power...

As soon as these words came out, the Fifth Army and the Sixth Army echoed one after another...

Except for the Marshal, the other officers of the Second Army also showed signs of change...

Ren Yanyong closed his eyes, not wanting to listen to the flattering declaration of rebellion.

He opened his eyes again, looked at the voting screen in despair, and heard the clerk Wei Wan announce——

"Two against, four in favor, one abstention."

"After the unanimous vote of the Seven Legions—"

"His Royal Highness Shi Xing has officially obtained half of the military power granted by the empire according to law from this moment on."
