The selection method of the president of the Magician Association is generally based on the recommendation of everyone, and the standard is the strongest person. However, the detailed rules will still vary according to the different regional branches.
Of course, the so-called strongest person does not set up an arena and let the masters play a monkey trick in front of everyone to win or lose. Instead, the so-called strongest person is determined based on his past reputation and performance. In other words, everyone
Most of the time, the evaluation of the strength of the president candidates is between equals.
After the previous president passed away, the selection of the next president became the top priority of the Xijia District Chapter. Generally speaking, a strong candidate to succeed the president will be selected from the four tower masters. But the president of Xijia District
The decision is made through universal suffrage among the magicians registered in the branch. Therefore, in history, young and strong factions have been selected to succeed the president, but not always those who are highly respected and powerful.
The current situation in Xijia District is that the age of the four tower masters is almost the same as that of the deceased president, both of whom are over eighty years old. For humans in the lost land, it is not surprising to kick their legs at any time.
.Unless he crosses the boundary of life and becomes a transcendent person, such a character rarely appears among Faye. And such a character will not be satisfied with the position of president of a branch.
Therefore, the day after the death of the president, the master of the Four Towers publicly stated his unwillingness to take over the position of president. Therefore, the candidate for the president was replaced by candidates from the second echelon, which is the highest level in Xijia District.
In the fourteen-person meeting, after deducting the president and the four tower masters, nine people remained.
In terms of strength, the current Overseer, the Great Magician Greenwin, is the most powerful candidate. Unfortunately, he is not keen on establishing his own power. In the past, he relied on the wings of Chengguo Eaton and became a sharp knife of the district chapter loyally.
If he could successfully take over the power left by the previous president, then taking over as president would be a sure thing. But this is not the case.
During the last period of time for the former president, the person in charge of the entire force on his behalf was his noble-born disciple Shurion.
He was born in a noble family and had skills that were different from ordinary people. During the period when he took over, he actually won over many leaders of the former president's power, or he thought he had won over these people. In fact, he had already won over many of them.
Many people have contacted other forces and even surrendered their oath of allegiance, but they have not made it public.
It is this illusion, and some careerists who are as young as Shurion, who think that as long as they firmly control the power left by the former president, they may take over the highest throne of the Xijia District Chapter. Little do they know that many people are just
Watching the show secretly, watching a noble young man think that using the rules of the game of secular nobles can also work among the magicians.
However, those people who have been suppressed by the former president for a long time are all cunning and patient. At this time, they choose to sit on the sidelines and not jump up and down on the stage. Instead, they contact and win over all the people they can win over under the stage.
But such an act would bring suffering to those who were targeted by that vengeful young man. The number one person on the list was Gabrielle Shtripwood, the purser of Eton College in Orange County.
After the president passed away, all kinds of troubles kept coming. Najib, the Chamber of Commerce steward who had been dealing with him for a long time, was transferred to an unknown corner and replaced by someone he didn't recognize.
Someone contacted Lin, and the other party was indifferent.
Lin looked carefully at what it means to have money but not want to make money. If his tone was focused and there were some hints in his words, the other party would simply say that he could buy it if he wanted, and the price would be doubled or tripled.
Using his private email address, he found out that the unlucky Najib had been sent to other places, wandering around various magic towers and the territories of minor nobles, in the name of developing new customers, but in fact it looked more like he was being manipulated.
Najib could be considered a celebrity based on his previous performance in the chamber of commerce. Just the commission from a client like Lin makes other managers jealous and jealous. Basically, as long as he holds on to this golden thigh, this will
You don't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life. How could you know that things have changed and time has passed? When the old president falls, the whole environment will be different.
He has to obey the instructions from above. Otherwise, those superior masters will play tricks on him without even waving his hands. So he can only hand over the original business obediently, like a new person, and go visit new customers again.
.
The last email that ended the conversation was a warning from Najib: Please be careful, Sir, they have further plans.
Looking at the content of the email, Lin sighed. Little did he know that this could not be the end, but the situation was stronger than others, and he could only hope that there would be someone to compete with him in the next president competition.
.I had no choice but to take refuge there.
Sitting in a cart pulled by a mule, Lin was thinking about the recent events. The two girls sat in the driver's seat, lashing the mule and moving forward slowly.
This car is not a horse-drawn carriage used by nobles, it is just an ordinary open truck. It is a car that Lin bought before to pull goods. It was used to pull materials from his home in the community to the cafe in the college. It was just used for transportation.
There are more opportunities. Let two apprentices drive, and Lin just has extra time to think.
As we gradually approached the home in the community, we saw a red cloud on the horizon, which was quite strange. The two girls who knew nothing about it exclaimed: "Wow, it's so beautiful. Teacher, look over there."
Lin looked up and saw that alluring and strange color, he seemed to have seen it before. And it seemed that there was something not good about it. He jumped out of the car, applied the lightening technique on himself, and said to the two apprentices: "Come on, please."
Just get in the car, I'll go over and take a look first."
Without waiting for the two girls to respond, Lin jumped into the night. The closer he got to the red glow, the more he felt that it was firelight, and there was also the faint sound of people in the distance.
At this time, Lin also realized where the bad feeling in his heart came from. The direction of the fire was not exactly the home in his community.
I ran to the place where the fire started and saw that the place where I lived was indeed on fire. However, unfortunately, the great thing was that it was not the mansion where I lived that burned, but the independent warehouse in the courtyard.
A group of onlookers stood outside the wall, pointing and chattering. There is no complete public fire protection system in Wulian City, but this is a city where magicians gather. Every now and then, an explosion occurs in some magic experiment.
It's a very common thing.
This can usually be solved by Master himself with a water collection technique. Therefore, in Wulian City, it is very common to see other people's houses on fire. As long as the fire does not burn to your own place, no one will take the initiative to help.
Having such an attitude does not mean that there is no custom of neighbors helping each other and loving each other. If the fire was caused by a magic experiment, unless the caster died inside, he himself would know best how to deal with the fire.
people.
Or maybe the fire is just a trivial matter, but the place where the fire occurred has secrets that no outsider should know. Rushing in and claiming to help put out the fire is the same as taking advantage of the fire.
The special nature of Wulian City meant that the fire had to wait until the owner of the house. Seeing this situation, Lin was no longer nervous. The warehouse was far away from the main house, so it would be difficult to spread the fire. He thought more
There are many questions about the cause of the fire. And where did the two dogs that were supposed to be guarding the courtyard go?
It's a bit unrealistic to expect two animals to put out a fire. But if something like this happens, you shouldn't run away without seeing the dog.
Before arriving at the warehouse, Lin kept thinking, besides green coffee beans, are there any other valuable things stored there? Are there any items that can cause combustion? Was it caused by two dogs playing with fire? We are not
Fire-attributed monsters do not have the talent to set fire.
But... I'm afraid that the two girls will do something to these two dogs again, just like they gave them magic tattoos like walking on the ground. This is a criminal record. Gray Hoof and White Nose have more on their bodies.
Two or three magic tattoos.
Before arriving at the warehouse, Lin prepared a ring of apprentice-level magic - water gathering. However, before the gathered water elements could condense into entities in the real world, Lin stopped casting the spell and looked coldly at the flames lying in the warehouse.
Two giant figures among them...
Did these two beasts sleep to death? Or were they really dead...
Watching the flames burning the wooden building and the contents inside, it made a loud noise. The smell of meat came, but it did not arouse anyone's appetite, but instead made one's heart sink.
Accident?
No! This is already obvious and was done deliberately.
Warning? Or was it aimed at his own green coffee bean inventory? The huge interests in coffee meant that more than once someone came to Lin's door to buy the inventory he owned. But he never agreed, even if it was just to give some of it to others.
"Ah! Why are we in there? We need to be rescued quickly."
Driving a mule cart, they finally returned to their home in the community. The fire in the warehouse also dumbfounded the two girls. After they parked the car and came to their teacher's side, they kept looking around. When they saw the girl lying in the fire
There were two dogs, and they just wanted to rush in.
Fortunately, Lin's hands were quick and he caught the two girls, preventing them from rushing into the fire without adding any auxiliary magic.
Kaya was quite quiet, and she showed no unusual behavior after being caught. But judging from her twitching shoulders, her mood was not as smooth as it appeared.
Halumi struggled desperately, trying to rush into the fire and drag the two dogs out. However, Lin grabbed her hand and tightened it tighter. In the end, she just pulled her back.
He held both girls in his arms and said, "We can't save them anymore, so give up. It would be better for us if we just let the fire burn more thoroughly."
Halumi's legs went limp, and if it hadn't been for the support of her teacher, she would have fallen to the ground. She burst into tears sadly, while Kaya buried her face in Lin's clothes and sobbed softly.
"Teacher, the Gray Hoofs are gone." The blond girl cried.
Lin didn't know how to comfort the girls. Speaking of the experience of his little animal dying, this must be their first experience. So Lin could only pat the two girls and try to comfort them.
