Chapter 180 Klein goes into the sea

Previously, because of the high level of confidentiality, Alfred even had a home that he could not return, let alone leaked any relevant secrets.

Now it can be said that it is only because the confidentiality level has been reduced, otherwise Alfred would not have been released. As for the reason for the reduction in the confidentiality level, it is undoubtedly because of the death of George III.

Like the disappearing finances, the lost demigods will also lead to fundamental problems in the kingdom.

The reason why the royal family released this information to the nobles was just like the finance department, and they still wanted the nobles to help the royal family fill this hole!

Hibert remained silent for a long time and sighed softly:

"The royal family is very good at playing a role. We have to pay for what they do."

Earl Hall looked at Hibert deeply and said with some slightest meaning:

“This is not necessarily a bad thing for us.”

Hibert was stunned for a moment, but Audrey instantly understood the subtext of Count Hall-

Those three vacant demigod positions!

If it were in the past, these positions would definitely be taken down by the royal family themselves.

But now that they have released the news and need the nobles to help fill the holes, it means that the royal family has given up the candidates for these three demigods. In other words, these three demigods will emerge from the nobles! Of course, the specific number of demigods comes from the nobles depends on the results of the negotiations between the nobles and the royal family, and how much concessions the royal family is willing to make on this.

Hibert finally came back and asked hesitantly:

"Is the royal family willing to give it?"

In the past, even if aristocrats wanted to train extraordinary people, they had to pay the royal family protection fee, and all potion formulas could only be purchased from the royal family. Even if they were to buy potion formulas, the maximum was only to Sequence 5. As for potion formulas above Sequence 4, the royal family never provided potion formulas, only finished products.

This leads to the fact that most of the existing saints in the Ruen Kingdom come from the royal family or are loyal to the royal family!

Now that three vacancies are released in one breath, this is undoubtedly a great concession for the royal family. However, given that the royal family has always been strictly guarding the nobles, Hibert is somewhat suspicious of the royal family's intentions.

Earl Hall chuckled:

"The royal family has no choice, and these three demigod quotas can only be released from the nobles. This is the price of the transaction."

The price paid by the royal family is to make concessions in the quota of demigods, and the corresponding nobles also need to pay a huge price to fill the holes pierced by the royal family. This hole is even big enough to make most nobles lose their fortunes, but in order to make the family produce a demigod, the nobles will definitely enjoy it!

Just like Earl Hall, even though he knew it was a hot potato, and even knew it was a royal sugar-coated shell, and a poison filled with honey, he had to go on and even eat it.

After all, there is only one chance.

Audrey pretended to hesitate for a while and muttered in a low voice:

"But, only three places are not enough, right?"

The nobles are not royal families, not solid parts.

Hundreds and thousands of nobles were divided into three places, which was obviously not enough.

This will inevitably lead to uneven distribution and may even further trigger internal struggles among the nobles.

Hearing Audrey's concerns, Earl Hall seemed not worried, but instead smiled:

"Audrey, you have to know that many people actually do not have this qualification. Any demigod quota requires at least one extraordinary person in Sequence 5 to reach this position. Most nobles are difficult to cultivate even the extraordinary person in Sequence 7. Demigods are too far away for them and have no meaning."

"So, other compensation can be given to this group of people, such as the potion formula in the middle sequence. As for those nobles who are also qualified to compete for these three quotas, they can also exchange the potion formula in the Sequence 4."

The potion formula of Sequence 4 is extremely precious, and the precious thing is its rarity.

But in a sense, it is not precious because it has extremely low copying costs, and you can copy it with a pen if you find a piece of paper. If you have a good memory and don’t even need paper and pen, you only need to read it twice to keep it in your mind.

The royal family only needs to come up with a potion formula of Sequence 4 to meet the needs of most nobles.

They don't need to rush to compete for those three places, because as long as they have the potion formula in hand, they can cultivate it slowly by themselves.

This is enough to meet the needs of most nobles, and many people are not greedy-

The main reason is that they also know that they are not qualified and cannot force them.

Yuchen suddenly asked:

"Who do these three quotas belong to?"

He knew very well that Earl Hall was definitely not a person who could not hold on to the door. If this matter was not decided, he would not disclose any information to his family. But since he said it happily, it means that the matter had actually been decided, at least it had been decided.

Earl Hall smiled slightly and pointed at Alfred:

"Alfred was originally one of the candidates, and the Hall family would definitely occupy one place. Among the remaining two places, Prime Minister Agusid and Duke Negan will occupy one. The remaining one will be left to other nobles."

Audrey was not surprised by the first two places, but asked curiously:

"Which nobles are qualified to compete for the last place?"

Earl Hall pondered for two seconds and said:

"The number of people is not large, but it is not small either. Marquis of Lotson, Earl of Gross, and Earl of Levitt have all the chances, but they are not likely to win."

Earl Hall shook his head, obviously not hopeful.

Hibert puzzled:

"Why didn't the Marquis of Lotson have any chance? His family is obviously as old as the Duke of Negan..."

Earl Hall briefly explained:

"Because they are all believers of the goddess, as for Count Levitt, he is not only a believer of the goddess, but also a demigod in the Levitt family. According to convention, they must give up even if they have another chance in the future."

Earl Levite is not an old noble, but has only made his fortune in recent hundreds of years, just like the Hall family. In terms of financial resources, Earl Hall can be said to be a leader, so he is qualified to make a deal with Prime Minister Agusid and even to make suggestions.

Earl Levitt belongs to the ordinary nobles. Even in a few generations, they may decline. But because the Levitt family produced a demigod, this family has now become one of the top nobles in the Ruen Kingdom!

And this demigod is also the supreme commander of the Central Soviet Navy and Admiral Amirius Levitt.

It is also thanks to this demigod's blessing. Amyrius Levitt's younger brother, Auston Levitt, is now the governor of Olavi. In the words of Emperor Rossell, this is a typical example of "one person attains the power of the gods and the dogs ascend to heaven"!

With the influence of the Hall family, once a demigod is born, it will definitely be more brilliant than the Lyvet family in the future!

Hibert asked thoughtfully:

“That is, the remaining place will be given to the believers of the Steam Church?”

"Yes."

Earl Hall nodded slightly. The three major churches must maintain balance, and their believers must also maintain balance. Since the Hall family, who believes in the goddess, and the Negan family, who believes in the Lord of the Storm, each has a quota, the third quota will be given to the nobles who believe in the God of Steam and Machinery by default.

Earl Hall sighed:

"If Alfred hadn't happened to have the strength of Sequence 5 and was selected as one of the candidates by the royal family in advance, we might not have been able to securely win a spot. And the reason why Alfred was selected as a candidate is largely because we do not have the qualification to compete for it."

The Hall family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and is far from the oldest among the nobles, and its foundation is not rich. Apart from Alfred, the most extraordinary people trained by the family is Sequence 7. Therefore, the Hall family does not have deep-rooted foundations and strengths like other nobles.

The reason for choosing him is that for the royal family, such a noble is the easiest to win over—

Before George III's accident, the royal family always wanted to take the newly trained demigods into their own hands, so Alfred Hall, a young talent with deep roots but talent, successfully stood out.

Although the quota has been exchanged, the candidates who have been selected must have "priority". This means that the Hall family has received the blessing of the will of the nobles and the royal family at the same time, and has used this to securely win a quota.

Hibert raised his wine glass and teased with envy:

"Then congratulate you in advance, Alfred Demigod."

Seeing that Alfred had already obtained the ticket to Sequence 4, and he had just become an extraordinary person, it would be fake to say that he would not envy. But it was only for envy. Hibert was not jealous. After all, he would not be able to use this ticket even if he gave it to him.

Moreover, Hibert doesn't feel that he will not be able to become Sequence 4 in the future-

With the blessing of the acting method, the risk of losing control is minimized. With the blessing of the Hall family's financial resources, the extraordinary materials and potion formulas required for his promotion are not a problem. It is only a matter of time before becoming an extraordinary person in the middle sequence. As for the high sequence, it requires some luck. After all, he is not going to be the "arbitrator" approach, and the potion formulas in the royal family are useless to him.

Alfred smiled and raised his glass toast back, and said modestly:

"It's still early, Hibert, it's not too late to congratulate me when I'm really promoted to Sequence 4."

The two of them took a sip of wine, put down their glasses, and looked at each other and smiled.

Earl Hall was in a very good mood. Although the fiscal deficit still gave him a headache, he was not the only one who had a headache for the fiscal, and he was not the only one who needed to make "sacrifices" for this. The benefits obtained by becoming a demigod were real.

To take a step back, even if all the nobles combined cannot block the financial hole, isn’t there any rich businessmen?

These wealthy businessmen certainly wouldn't mind making some insignificant contributions to the kingdom.

Alfred shook his glass gently and suddenly asked curiously:

"Ash, what kind of extraordinary path are you? What's the sequence?"

He had heard about Embers from his father and knew that he was the night watchman of the Night Church and his status was not low.

Yu Yuan thought for a moment and said seriously:

"Apprentice Path, Sequence 6'Record Officer'."

Audrey lowered her head silently and whispered in her heart:

Can Sequence 6 break into the palace and kill George III, the angel of Sequence 1? Do you believe this if you say it!

Alfred recalled for a while and said softly:

"Addressing the apprenticeship? Very good ability. To be honest, I have begun to regret choosing the arbitrator's approach..."
To be continued...
