Chapter 676: Between Light and Light (XV)

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the Council of Light immediately changed, and the others immediately turned their eyes at this moment, and they didn't dare to look at the scene in front of them, everyone present was not stupid, as supporters and opponents of the Council of Light, of course they knew what the most powerful and most obvious weakness of the Council of Light was.

That is the "raison d'être" of the Council of Light.

And all this has to start with the birth of the Council of Light.

It was still the time of the Creation War, and the first dragon spirits of light looked at the devastation on the ground and the humans who were still trying to build their homes on it, perhaps moved by their hard work. Eventually, the Radiant Dragon Spirit came up with the idea that the humans who inhabit the land themselves would lead their own country, and through various mechanisms, select a group of people who have enough trust and prestige among the people to be in charge of the operation of the entire country, and they will work on behalf of the people to fulfill the wishes of the people.

At that time, the Night Dragon Soul scoffed at this, believing that the idea of the Light Dragon Soul was completely whimsical, contrary to the Light Dragon Soul, the Night Dragon Spirit believed that the people were a group of lambs, and that there must be a shepherd dog and a shepherd responsible for controlling their movements, and guiding them in the direction they should go is the right way, otherwise, if they let go and let the sheep do what they want, then they will only end up in destruction.

The philosophical differences between the two creation dragon souls will not be mentioned here, in short, it was after this that the dragon soul of light created the "Council of Light", which is independent of the dragon soul of light and the three archangels, and belongs to an independent administrative authority, and the dragon soul of light also delegated power to them after the establishment of the Council of Light, and then retreated to the three archangels. No more mundane matters.

And in the first hundred years. The performance of the Council of Light is indeed good, and the Land of Light can have such a large territory and strength now, but it is all thanks to the wise leadership of the early generations of the Council of Light. But......... After all, the perspective of short-lived creatures such as human beings and long-lived creatures such as angels, elves, and dwarves is not the same.

Watching the Council of Light develop well. The Dragon Soul of Light is very relieved to let them do it completely, but the desires of human beings are unlimited, and without the restrictions of the Dragon Soul of Light and the three archangels, the Council of Light has accompanied the re-election and election of generations, and the awe of the Creation Dragon Soul and the three archangels has become more and more indifferent, on the contrary, with the enhancement of ambition, they have become the thorn in the side of the Council of Light. And the Council of Light is also very intelligent, they are keenly aware of and take advantage of the trust placed in them by the Dragon Soul of Light. began to secretly carry out a series of schemes, like boiling a frog in warm water, slowly moving everything from the dragon soul of light to the council, and in the end, the council of light succeeded, and they succeeded in replacing the dragon soul of light and became the de facto ruler of the country.

If it were on Earth, then the next thing the Council of Light should do is to make a move. Directly abolish the Dragon Soul of Light and the three archangels, and make yourself truly the rightful ruler of the Land of Light under the banner of reform. Or like the Earth. Give the Dragon Soul of Light and the three archangels the royal treatment in the face, but they are not allowed to deal with and meddle in political affairs. On Earth, after all. No matter how sacred and noble your status is, after all, it is only one nose and two ears, no matter whether you are a saint or a king, you have to obediently go to the top and below to find someone to line up to get the number, delete the file and start again. But on the Dragon Soul Continent, this doesn't work, and just one of the three archangels is enough for them to drink more than a pot. Not to mention that the entire country of light is under the protection of the dragon soul of light, if there is no protection of the dragon soul of light, then chaos will immediately invade this world realm, completely turning this place into a dead place. Therefore, the Council of Light did not dare to go too far, if they did kill the Dragon Soul of Light. Then they themselves must be a dead end.

Because of this, the Council of Light had to hover on the edge of the precipice of victory, and acquiesced in the existence of the Dragon Soul of Light and the three archangels. However, the Council of Light is not stupid, they know very well that the Dragon Soul of Light and the three archangels must be dissatisfied with them, so they are desperately brainwashing the people, weakening their worship of the Dragon Soul of Light, and inciting confrontation between humans and other races. In this way, even if the Dragon Soul of Light wants to do something, it must also consider the psychological feelings of the people.

However, the Council of Light has one of its deadliest weaknesses.

That is, the power they possess is "delegated" to them by the dragon soul of light. This was clearly stated in the Divine Treaty of Creation when the Council of Light was first created, and the regulations contained in the Treaty of Creation were not allowed to be changed.

And since it is a "decentralized" power, then it can naturally be "taken back". If the Dragon Soul of Light really wants to take back the power of the Council of Light, then it is completely legal in terms of law and rules, if the Council of Light intends to play tricks or turn a blind eye, let alone whether the Dragon Soul of Light agrees or not, the Twin Dragons of the Kingdom of Law will be the first to disagree with the sanctions and judgments, and the meaning of the existence of the Twin Dragons is to maintain the creation treaty, and if the Council of Light really dares to resist in front of the Kingdom of Law, it is really looking for death.

The Council of Light naturally knows this, but there is nothing they can do, they can only use various means to make the dragon soul of light jealous, and they dare not or will not take back their power, and in this way, the power to rule the country of light is still in the hands of the Council of Light, which is enough for the Council of Light.

But now, the girl sitting on the throne has spoken a speech that is enough to terrify all the members of the Council of Light.

Rhodes didn't know how the Council of Light had dealt with the Dragon Soul of Light all along, but after seeing Li yesterday, he already had a rough idea in his mind, and if he really looked at it that way, then Li was able to run to Lydia's palace yesterday, I'm afraid it was premeditated.........

But now............ Hey, hey, hey............

Rhodes looked like he didn't think it was a big deal, but everyone in the Council of Light was pale at the moment, especially the old council leader, and the cold sweat on his old face was dripping like running water. This dragon soul of light really didn't open her mouth, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she was shocked, she actually wanted to take away the wealth that Lydia gave on behalf of Moon!!

In the Council of Light. In fact, there are some people who think the same as the old council president, although the scene when welcoming Lydia before was very humiliating, but after all, it is only face, and face is definitely not as important as benefit. In the eyes of the old council leader and others, as long as Lydia is willing to come up with this money, then they can fill the financial deficit of the Council of Light. That's the most practical. But now, if the money is taken away by the Radiant Dragon Soul, then the Council of Light can be said to have lost its wife and soldiers, not only will it be disgraced, but it will not even be able to fill the financial deficit!

You must know that this financial deficit is not a small number, all along, the Council of Light has used this money to fill the subsidies of their two or three subordinate territories, and these funds add up to about 5% to 10% of the annual revenue of the Kingdom of Light, which can be seen. With such a huge amount of assets, the Dragon Soul of Light said that it would take it, so the Council of Light didn't rush to roll its eyes?!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! ~! ”

I don't know if Lu Dao was overly nervous or frightened, the old council president was a little trilled as soon as he spoke, and Rod couldn't help but want to laugh out loud when he heard the distorted voice, but fortunately, he also knew that Lu Dao was not the occasion to watch jokes now. So I still restrained my expression.

"This ......... This one......... This has always been taken over by our Council of Light......... And, every year, our council plans ahead for your money. You are now suddenly saying that........."

"I beg your pardon for being rude, Your Majesty."

Seeing that the old council chief was a little flustered, a young man suddenly strode out of the council, and when he saw this man, Rod's face sank slightly, and he immediately recognized the other party. But the man didn't seem to notice Rod. He just saluted respectfully to the Radiant Dragon Soul and then spoke.

"The Council of Light has been using this wealth to benefit the people and help them, and in fact we have already made a series of plans for this this year. For this we can benefit many people, Your Majesty, you are doing this..............."

Hearing everyone's objections, uneasiness and a little confusion immediately appeared on Li's immature little face, but at this moment, a calm and cold voice sounded, interrupting the young man's speech.

"That's a lot of fun, Mr. Andrew."

Rhodes walked out of the crowd slowly, staring at the young man in front of him calmly——— he was the man who had several encounters with Rhodes in the Fiat region before, the disciple of "Thunder Sword" Sodfast, and also one of the members of the Sword Guardian. Chris.

"This money is a gift from our Duchy of Moon to His Majesty the Venerable Radiant Dragon Soul, that is, it is the property of His Majesty. What Her Majesty wants to do with this money, naturally she has a reason, and I believe that His Majesty, the Noble Dragon Soul of Light, will not make a ridiculous decision. Instead, the Council of Light..............."

Saying this, Rhodes raised his head, looked at the people in the Council of Light opposite, and sneered, unabashedly mocking and contempt.

"Don't you, as subjects of the Dragon Soul of Radiance, feel a little inappropriate to be so concerned about the wealth of Your Majesty?"

"You ....................."

Hearing this, many people's faces changed drastically, Rod's words can be described as heart-wrenching, indeed, almost no one present did not know that the money that the Duchy of Moon handed over to the Dragon Soul of Light every year would be used by the Council of Light to fill the financial deficit. While the Council of Light has been doing this for many years, and it is almost a matter of course, it is not a matter of course. It's like a person who received a year-end bonus at the end of the year, but the money was taken away by his family before he was hot, and he told him that the money for the annual inspection of the car and the mortgage loan this year is not enough, so I will take your money first, which is unreasonable. Moreover, what Rhodes said is indeed not wrong, nominally speaking, the Council of Light is a subordinate body of the Dragon Soul of Light, and it stands to reason that the Dragon Soul of Light should give you as much as possible, and then you will make plans. But now, people don't give you money, so you plan in advance? What does this mean............ Who can't see it.

Seeing Rod, Andre's expression was very strange, he blinked his eyes and looked at Rod with some doubts. It stands to reason that he should have never met Rhodes, although the two sides had fought in the underground mines of the Fiat Mountains, but at that time Rhodes was "Miranda. Ceren's women's dress. There is still a difference from him now. But soon, Andrei's expression changed slightly.

His eyes widened in horror as he looked at Rhodes, as if he had seen the monster in his nightmare come alive in human form. I saw Andre standing in place like this, staring at Rod with a pale face. But he couldn't say half a sentence.

And at this moment, a dull cold snort broke the silence in the hall.

"Humph!"

With this muffled snort, a tall middle-aged man strode out, he was about 1.9 meters tall, which was very tall among the crowd, and what was even more impressive was his face, at first glance, like a vulture, thin and dangerous. And the most interesting thing is. This man, like a vulture, is a bald man. But now he stood there, and the imposing momentum was rushing towards him, and he raised his chin like that, and looked at Rhodes with a little contempt.

"Young ignorant imp, our Council of Light has no doubt about its loyalty to His Majesty, and this baseless slander of yours is a blatant slander against our Council of Light! As a member of the delegation of the Principality of Moon, don't you think that you should restrain your attitude in front of Your Majesty?! ”

In the face of the aggressive momentum of the man. Rod's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a cold glow like a poisonous snake.

"Loyalty to His Majesty is more than just words. Lord Sodfast, as a member of the Council of Light, would dare to question His Majesty's decision in such a large audience, do you think that you are wiser and wiser than Your Majesty? ”

“………… Well? ”

Seeing that Rod was not overwhelmed by his own momentum. On the contrary, such a strong argument was argued, and Sodfast couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"You are ..............."

"Rhodes. Elantra ............ I am the lord of the Duchy of Moon, Glenbel. ”

Saying this, Rod's face once again appeared with the kind of warm and bright smile that he hadn't seen for a long time.

"I have heard the name of Lord Sodfast of 'Thunder Sword' for a long time, and here I apologize for my rudeness. Unfortunately, I don't intend to retract my words. ”

"It turned out to be your ....................."

Hearing Rod's self-introduction, almost everyone in the Council of Light, including Sodfast, sank their faces and looked at Rhodes in front of them with fire in their eyes. This young man can be said to be the biggest enemy of the Council of Light this year, not only did he abolish the Sword Saint of Lan, but even the goshawk was disgraced by him, and in addition, the failure of a series of plans of the Council of Light, there is this young man behind him——— for the Council of Light, the name Rhodes is almost ranked after Lydia, second only to the second highest hatred value of the archangel.

"Enough!"

At this moment, suddenly a loud shout sounded, and a huge sound shook everyone's ears. Then I saw the Seraph, who had not spoken, striding forward, his hand pressing the flaming sword at his waist, and his eyes glaring at everyone angrily.

"What a noisy to be so noisy in front of the Holy See! Shut up! ”

"Yes, Your Highness the Seraph Arch, I beg your pardon for being upset."

Rod turned around, bowed respectfully to the Seraph, and then stepped back. Although Sodfast's face was gloomy, he still had to restrain his expression, bowed respectfully to the front, and then turned back to the crowd of parliamentarians.

Although the scene returned to calm, it became more and more agitated like a surge under the dark tide, and although the Seraphic Archangel stopped the confrontation between the two sides, it seemed clear to everyone present that the contradiction between the Duchy of Moon and the Council of Light had completely intensified——— and there was an open confrontation.

The atmosphere became strange and solemn for a while, but by this time Li's expression had regained its calm, she raised her head, glanced at Rhodes gratefully, and then opened her mouth to break the strange silence.

"Chief, do you remember what you said to me before?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"

Hearing Leigh's inquiry, the old council leader raised his head and looked at Leigh with some confusion.

"You told me that, didn't you? The Council of Light is working to make everyone live a happy, free and happy life, which is why I leave everything to you. And you also once assured me that everything was fine, isn't that so? ”

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty."

Although I don't know why Lu Dao will ask this question at this time, the old council leader still has to answer hard. Hearing his answer, an angry expression appeared on Li's immature little face for the first time. Although a little girl's angry expression is not very intimidating, her appearance is really shocking compared to when she was expressionless before.

"So, why do I know that this is not the case? Speaker of the Parliament? In this country, in this very city, there are so many people who are unclothed and homeless, huddled in the shadows of darkness, living hopeless lives. But you never mentioned it to me, Chief! ”

"Your Majesty?"

Hearing Leigh's inquiry, the old council leader's face changed drastically, his face was pale, his eyes widened, and he looked at Li in disbelief.

"Your Majesty, where did you hear these rumors? I can assure you that there is no such thing as ..............."

"This is what I saw with my own eyes, just yesterday!"

"It's ............ When are you, are you ............ It can't be, it's ............... Haven't you been working with the three archangels to prepare the Dragon Soul Sacred Codex............"

The old council leader turned his head, and soon he saw Lydia standing beside him, with a smug look. And at this moment, the old council leader suddenly felt weakness all over his body——— this is impossible, according to the eyeliner report, it is clear that His Majesty has always been in her temple? She must have never left the temple, right...............

Thinking of this, the old council leader sighed.

He knew that there was nothing to be done.

And at this moment, Leigh's voice appeared in his ears again.

"I've made a decision, do you have any other comments? Speaker of the Parliament? (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
