It's getting night.
The Thunder City is covered by thick thunderclouds all year round. This layer of thunderclouds contains divine power and can even intercept the light of the sun god for its own use.
When night falls, the thunderclouds will greedily absorb all the sunlight to satisfy the nightlife needs of the people in Bracada above the thunderclouds.
Because of this, the night in Thunder City always comes earlier.
Under the thunderclouds, bright magic crystal lights have begun to shine.
The tower spirits of Bracada work hard to contribute to the extravagance of Thunder City.
Qi Ge and Aged sat on the magic carpet, discussing the upcoming emergency meeting.
"Teacher, do you know why the three demigods suddenly proposed that the Grand Chancellor run for election?"
Aged said with a serious look:
"I heard that it was an order from the Thunder Temple. A Thunder God Titan summoned three demigods remotely."
"Thor Titan!!"
Qi Ge was confused:
"Doesn't that mean this is an oracle from that person?"
"Yes, it's very likely." Aged looked solemn.
El Zeus...
Was it El Zeus's suggestion to hold this emergency meeting?
Qi Ge's heart tightened.
“Why is El Zeus holding a meeting at this time for no apparent reason?
I don’t remember any major events at this time.
Could it be that the butterfly effect has started again?
Tsk.
El Zeus.
As a big BOSS, can you act like a BOSS?
Can't you just sit quietly in the BOSS's seat and wait for me to finish killing the monsters and leveling up, then come over and chop off your head?
Do you have to come out and cause trouble at this time?"
As Qi Ge and Aged chatted, the magic carpet gradually approached the Grand Council.
From a distance, Qi Ge saw a very thin lightning above the brightly lit Great Council, which penetrated the thick clouds from the spire at the top of the Great Council and reached the sky.
“Already here!”
Aged stared at the lightning and said to Qige seriously:
“This is the line of thunder from the Thunder Temple.
When this line of lightning appears, it means that every move within the Grand Council will be heard by the gods.
Of course, this does not mean that there is no thunder line and nothing can be heard from above.
The line of thunder is more of a symbolic meaning, indicating that the Thunder Temple and that person attach great importance to this meeting.
Apprentice, we need to hurry up."
Aged gently patted the magic carpet under him, and the magic carpet suddenly took off into the air, even flying above all the armed airships.
Bracada has strict restrictions on the flying altitude and speed of flying vehicles.
Everyone is equal under the law.
But the status of Aged is always more equal than that of ordinary people.
When it reached a high altitude, the magic carpet jumped in the air for a while, and rushed to the front of the Grand Council in a few seconds.
There are 2 minutes left until the deadline.
But the 7th pigeon and Agade were the slowest of all.
The moment Qi Ge and Aged stepped into the Grand Council, the door of the Grand Council slammed shut!
Escher's calm voice sounded from the high platform in the center of the Great Council:
"Your Majesty the Demigod, Your Majesty the Envoy of God, all 325 members of the Bracada Grand Council in Thunder City are present."
Qi Ge looked over quickly and saw that on the platform, in addition to Somla and Escher, there was also a Thor Titan sitting there.
As if to match the atmosphere of the Grand Council, he shrunk his size and sat next to Somla.
The Titan, the god of thunder, wore a large helmet with a red beard and a green base. He had a square face, regular features, and a bare upper body that revealed his green skin. His muscles were clearly defined, and he looked very much like a Spartan warrior in the ancient Roman Colosseum.
But the lightning that appeared and disappeared in his hands reminded everyone that his magic power was as strong as his body.
Interestingly, the place where Thor Titan was sitting was exactly where Somla sat last time.
And Somla chose a vice seat on the podium.
Somla glanced at Qi Ge and Agaide, and saw that they had consciously and tacitly found a hidden seat to sit down. He smiled helplessly and said:
"Agaide, Xingfeng, one of you is a permanent member and the other is an honorary permanent member, both of you are well-known figures, how dare you sit behind the reserve councillors?
Don’t force yourself to fit into a circle that you can’t fit into. Just sit back in your seat.”
Somla's voice was loud and very loud.
At one moment, all the MPs turned their heads and looked behind them.
Their looks were filled with envy, flattery, and friendliness, but not ridicule.
This is the reality, when your position is high enough, you will be surrounded by good people.
Qi Ge and Aged stood up somewhat awkwardly, looked at each other, and walked forward together helplessly.
The Thunder God Titan looked in the direction of Agaide and Qige, and asked Somla:
“Are these two Agaide and Xingfeng?
One is the second legendary architect since the founding of Bracada.
The other is the hero who just conquered the Demon King's Territory and recaptured the Everfrost Icefield.
The most interesting thing is that they are master and apprentice, and are both descendants of Grand Chancellor Kredel.
Even I often heard their names in the Thunder Temple.
Even His Majesty the God King said that both the master and the disciple are the backbone of our Bracada."
Such a high evaluation, not only Qi Ge was stunned, even Somla was stunned for a moment.
The Thunder Titan's voice was even louder than Somra's.
He was clearly just speaking normally, but his voice sounded like a loudspeaker calling people to come down for nucleic acid testing, and the entire council could hear it clearly.
For a moment, the eyes looking at Qi Ge and Agaid became a little friendlier.
"Ha ha."
Somla laughed and said:
“That being said, unfortunately, these two are lazy people who are unwilling to work hard for our Great Council.
As long as it is not an important meeting, the master and the apprentice can miss twenty of the ten meetings combined."
The Thunder God Titan also laughed.
“People who are truly capable are always indifferent to fame and fortune.
Power and wealth are just things that are easily obtained to them, so naturally they will not pursue or cherish them.
Only those incompetent people who are neither here nor there will cling to power."
Hiss~
Qi Ge took a deep breath.
This is a bit heartbreaking.
Isn't Thor Titan implying that the four candidates are incompetent?
He also used Qi Ge and Aged as examples to praise one and criticize the other.
Qi Ge quickly took a quick glance.
Sure enough, both Deris and Trosa looked unhappy.
Only Escher still had a smiling face.
Somla laughed and said loudly:
“Then I hope there are more stupid people.
You are all capable, but you don’t want to work. You can’t let me do it, right?
"That's true."
Thor Titan nodded and said nothing more.
Although Somla looked rough, his words were just right, and Deris and Trosa's expressions didn't look so ugly anymore.
Seeing this, Somla said to Escher, "Everyone is here, let's have a meeting."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Escher nodded slightly and turned to the conference room.
“This emergency meeting was jointly proposed by His Majesty the Divine Envoy and the three demigods, and there are three agendas in total.
Now we will proceed to the first agenda item.”
Qi Ge's heart tightened. Oh no, is the election going to start right away?
Damn, Xiaobai and Lin Xi’s preparations haven’t even started yet.
Then I have to choose...
"His Majesty, the Envoy of the Thunder Temple, publicly commends the Honorary Permanent Councillor, [Immortal Hero] Xingfeng."
Seven Pigeons: I chose Escher as the first. Huh?!
Escher turned to the Thunder God Titan and asked politely:
"Your Majesty, the Envoy of God?"
Thundergod Titan nodded, stood up from his chair, walked to the podium, and spoke in a thunderous voice:
“Everyone, I believe everyone here knows this very well.
Just a few days ago, a hero from our Bracada defeated the Demon Lord and liberated the Everfrost Icefield.
The one who accomplished such a feat was an ordinary hero who had not even reached the level of a master.
Even the great Yasha was moved by his feat and bestowed his grace, turning the ice field into a fertile land.
And this hero is our Xingfeng!"
“Pah pah pah pah pah!”
Amidst the thunderous applause, Thundergod Titan looked at Qi Ge, stretched out his hand, and said:
"Xingfeng, please come to the stage and accept your reward."
Qi Ge woke up with a start, stood up immediately, pretended to be at a loss, and hurriedly said modestly:
"Your Majesty, I just did something that every Bracada hero would do. I don't deserve such praise."
Thor Titan tried very hard to raise the corner of his mouth and said:
"This is the grace of His Majesty the Divine King."
Qi Ge understood.
Subtext: I advise you to come up on stage and receive your reward quickly, and don't be ungrateful.
Helplessly, Qi Ge quickly walked up to the podium and bowed to the messenger of God.
"Your Majesty, Xingfeng is here."
Thor Titan nodded and said:
“I heard that after you conquered the Demon King’s Territory, the Grand Council awarded you an honorary permanent member and granted you the title of Immortal Hero.
I have to say, Escher did a good job.
This reward is just right for you, neither too much nor too little.
However, the reward from the Grand Council is the reward from the Grand Council and has nothing to do with our Thunder Temple.
The chaotic energy of the Everfrost Icefield has always been a major concern for us in Bracada.
The unstable Everfrost Icefield could be prone to a Chaos invasion at any time.
But the Everfrost Icefield is the core hub of the empire's northern border.
Once the Everfrost Icefield is occupied by Chaos, it means that Chaos may invade the Thunder Mountains from the north at any time, and then threaten the Kingdom of the God-King.
For us, the instability of the Everfrost Icefield has always been a thorn in our side.
All along, our Thunder Temple has always had to prepare hundreds of precious Thunder Titans and a corresponding large number of troops to guard against the chaos outbreak of the Everfrost Icefield.
But now, the haze is gone!
This is all thanks to you, Xingfeng, for retaking the Everfrost Icefield.
Xingfeng, His Majesty the God King said that we in the Thunder Temple will give you the highest level of reward.
Territory, wealth, personal strength, power and status.
You can choose any one of these four.”
Seven Pigeons: ...
Grass!
You read for so long, I thought you wanted to give it all to me!
After all this time, just give me one.
It made me look forward to it.
Qi Ge thought about it and realized that he actually had no choice.
Even if the territory and power were given to oneself, they would be of little use.
Either wealth or personal strength.
I am an apostle of wealth. I can lack anything except money. The only thing I can choose is personal strength.
Qi Ge pretended to think for three seconds and said softly:
“I think that my lucky victory over the Demon Lord was due to my personal efforts and the help from all walks of life in Bracada.
I really don't deserve this award.
Therefore, I feel that this commendation is more of a spur to me than a reward.
Your Majesty the God King, this is spurring me on to keep my original aspiration in mind and my mission in mind, to continue to make greater contributions to Bracada, and to make Bracada and Your Majesty the God King great forever!
I don't have enough strength to control the territory. I have the will but not the power. Wealth is a pleasure and will only lead me to depravity. Power has no meaning to us architects.
So, I choose personal strength!"
"Um!"
Thor Titan nodded approvingly and said:
“Xingfeng, you remind me of your teacher’s teacher, Credel.
When Credel successfully built the Sky Eye Tower and activated the Sky Eye Tower spirit, His Majesty the God King rewarded him.
He, like you, has a clear idea of ​​his goals.
It's just that your choice is different from his.
At that time, he chose power and became the first legendary Grand Speaker in the history of Bracada.
Of course, facts have proved that his choice and the vision of His Majesty the God King were absolutely correct.
It is precisely because of His Majesty Credel's outstanding performance that we have established the sound and complete bureaucratic system of Bracada today.
I hope that after receiving this reward, you can achieve achievements no less than His Majesty Kredel."
Thundergod Titan took out two keys and said to Qi Ge:
“This is the first reward and also the heaviest one.
There are two natural wonders [Libraries of the Wise] located in our Bracada.
When a hero reaches Legendary level, or Master level with Master Wisdom, he can gain +5 each for Attack, Defense, Magic, and Knowledge there (20 points in total).
Moreover, you can also read various books in it.
From rare miracle auxiliary skills to mythical magic that even we dream of, you can find them all in it.
Each [Library of the Wise] can only be visited once by each hero in his lifetime.
[Library of the Wise] is protected by His Majesty the God-King with infinite power. When you hold these two keys, you can feel their location.
When you are ready, go find it yourself."
Hiss, this reward is quite big.
Qi Ge knew that after the [Library of Wise Men] was visited ten times, it would disappear from the map and appear in other locations in the Yasha world.
In addition to what Thor Titan mentioned, there are also some special books in the [Library of the Wise].
In the past life, some players found miracle-level specialties in it.
The bonus of a [Library of Wisdom] is enough to make a third-rate hero promoted to a first-rate hero.
Therefore, the locations of the [Library of Wise] of the nine major forces are top secret.
For a moment, countless envious and jealous eyes were focused on Qi Ge's hands.
Qi Ge took the key and put it into the space backpack without hesitation, blocking out those gazes.
Upon seeing this, Thundergod Titan took out a crest.
“Studying Emblem.
With this emblem, you can study at any college in Bracada and visit the college library free of charge.
If you are interested, you can also serve as a visiting professor.
Especially architecture, if you are willing, I believe any college would be willing to hire you to teach this course."
Qi Ge had a serious expression.
There's no problem with studying, but forget about attending classes.
There are so many pregnant female students that I can’t tell.
"The last one, the combination treasure: the learning crown."
【Learning crown

hiss!!!
What the hell! [Learning crown]? !
This combination treasure is useless in the later stages of the game.
But at this stage, even if you give Qi Ge a [Blade of Doom], Qi Ge will not exchange it!
In front of everyone, Qi Ge put on the [Learning Crown] on his head without hesitation.
[System prompt: Equip the combined treasure [Learn the Crown]. ]
【System prompt: Obtain 【Basic learning ability】. 】

Qi Ge: ???
What's going on? My left foot stepped on my right foot and it pushed me up to the sky?
What is the principle? ?
No matter what, there are no bugs in the world of Heroes Soul, and everything is subject to settlement.
Thor Titan looked at Qi Ge with appreciation and said:
“Keep working on it.
I hope that one day, I can see you in the Thunder Temple, just like His Majesty Kredel, and be personally rewarded by His Majesty the Divine King!"
Qi Ge said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I promise that you will see it."
Meet His Majesty the Divine King, who has personally conferred upon you an honor.
Reward him and send him to heaven, where both his body and soul will be destroyed.
The eye contact between Qi Ge and Thunder God Titan made the parliamentarians present very excited.
As Escher watched this scene, his heart surged and he shouted appropriately:
“Great, great!
I witnessed a sun rising!
I have a feeling that this scene will be recorded in the history of Bracada and become a household classic!
Your Highness Xingfeng, with the attention of His Majesty the Divine King and the expectation of His Majesty the Divine Envoy, will surely become a new banner of Bracada!"
Thunderous applause and cheers announced the end of the first agenda item.
The Seven Pigeons returned to Aeged, and the Thunder God Titan sat back in his seat.
As everything returned to the starting point, Escher's expression became serious.
“Now we move on to the second item on the agenda.
Urgent election for Grand Speaker.
I know you may be confused.
His Majesty the candidate, His Majesty Fafnir, has not returned yet. Why is the election for Grand Speaker being held at this moment?
Next, I will explain it in detail, please sit down and listen. "
Everyone's expressions suddenly became serious.
Escher said seriously:
“All of this is actually related to the commendation meeting that just took place.
Xingfeng's permanent strategy is to attack [Demon King's Territory], take back the Everfrost Icefield, and liberate all of Bracada's northern border troops.
At the same time, the Thunder Temple can also draw out an additional powerful Titan force.
After careful consideration, His Majesty the God King judged keenly and accurately that this was a rare and excellent opportunity!
Everyone already knows about the [Pingdi City] incident.
Those stupid and arrogant underground beasts wanted to take advantage of the changes in our northern border to launch a shameless invasion of [Pingdi City].
In that case, let's just launch an all-out war against Negan!
Our Bracada is stronger than Negan. What's more, we have a strong army and no worries on the border.
Negan is weak, and he has to deploy a large number of troops to garrison many unstable points in the territory.
The right time and place are in our hands!
Negan attempted to challenge the dignity of our Bracada at the wrong time and in the wrong place, and he will pay a heavy price!
I, Escher, hereby announce on behalf of His Majesty the God King that an emergency election for the Wartime Grand Chancellor will be held to coordinate the all-out war with Negan!"
Listening to Escher's sonorous and powerful announcement, Qi Ge's heart suddenly tightened! !
I was not wrong. The butterfly effect, it really is the butterfly effect!
According to his own idea, this should have been a low-intensity war that would be stopped at the right time, and he could take advantage of the situation and reap all the benefits.
But now, Al Zeus quits!
He wants to be a desperate gambler and crush Negan with one blow! !
"Your Majesty the Envoy of God!"
Escher bowed slightly and took a step back.
Thor Titan once again fought in front of Taitai and said loudly:
“Just this afternoon, the First, Second, and Third Armies of the Northern Territory have joined forces with the First and Second Armies of the Central Territory to rush to the South for emergency assistance.
The Central Sky Territory has begun preparations to deploy the teleportation array.
We plan to divide our troops into six groups and attack Negan from different locations on Negan.
Among them, the most important one is [Pingdi City]. "
Qi Ge's pupils shrank, the troops have already set out!
when?
Why didn't I, Mr. Agaide, and countless players in Bracada notice any unusual movement in such a large-scale troop movement? !
Thor Titan then said:
“In addition to the support that has already been sent, the elected Grand Speaker will also serve as the Commander-in-Chief of the Six Armies and the Commander-in-Chief of the Defense War of Pingdi City.
This is a position that only demigods can hold. As a result, the original four candidates are all invalidated."
When Deris and Trosa heard this, their faces turned pale.
Eschel kept her eyelids drooped and remained silent, and it was impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.
Qi Ge felt a little relieved.
Good fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. At least, I have missed one hurdle.
Thor Titan then said:
“I am the messenger sent by His Majesty the God King—Thunder God Titan Leidong.
According to the oracle of His Majesty the God-King, I am responsible for organizing this emergency election.
Now, I will announce the list of candidates.
The candidates for the Speaker election are:
"Demigod, King of Thunder and Lightning, Somla.
complete.
Start voting.”
