The conversation between Mero and Lu Lan was not hidden from Lin Zheng. In fact, Lin Zheng did not object to Mero's proposition. After all, he would come with him to protect the interests of Outpost City from being invaded by others.
Well, now that Mero has negotiated terms with Lu Lan, he is happy to play dumb.
After repeated inspections, Lin Zheng finally determined that the severely damaged teleportation array had indeed been perfectly repaired. The repairman who was randomly selected indeed had an outstanding talent in this regard!
Lin Zheng wanted to know if he could extend more abilities besides maintenance, so he gave him a book that recorded the operating principles of the teleportation array. If he could learn the contents of the book
, then he is more than just a maintenance man.
With a smile on his face, he patted the excited maintenance man and told him to repair other formations. Lin Zheng returned to Mero and politely said to Lu Lan: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu Lan.
Awaited."
"It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter! The most important thing is to repair the teleportation array!" Lu Lan said cheerfully, and then showed a look of great interest, "I dare to ask Mr. Lin, whether this array has been repaired.
Woolen cloth?"
"Yes, Mr. Lu Lan." Lin Zheng smiled very proudly, "The repair is very perfect. Even if I were to do it, it would be at that level."
Hearing Lin Zheng's admiration for the maintenance man, Lu Lan sighed with emotion: "Famous teachers produce great students! Mr. Lin's knowledge is really admirable for being able to teach such outstanding students!"
"Mr. Lu Lan, thank you for the award. I just happened to do a little research in this area. I really don't have much ability."
After chatting with Lu Lan for a while, Lin Zheng found an excuse and returned to the outpost city with Mero and the maintenance guy.
On the way to the lord's mansion across the square, Lin Zheng couldn't help laughing when he saw the beaming Mero, and then asked: "What on earth were you talking about with Lu Lan before? Take Siro with you to Antor.
, has anything to do with the last chance?”
Upon hearing Lin Zheng's question, the joy on Mero's face immediately dissipated a lot, and then he sighed softly: "This is an opportunity to enter the Round Table Council."
Entering the Round Table Council?! Lin Zheng was immediately surprised when he heard this, but did not let his curiosity last too long. Mero then said: "It has been more than five hundred years since the Maybiers family won a seat in the Round Table Council, but
, the seats in the Round Table Council are not permanent. Once the family that obtains the seat does not have enough ability, the House of Nobles can initiate a motion to replace the seat with other qualified families in the House of Nobles. "
"So, the Maybiers family is now the seat that will be replaced?"
Mero nodded helplessly, "Three years ago, a neighboring country launched a war against us. Our father led the troops to fight. The war was very tragic. Although Antopia narrowly won, my father and my mother, who joined the army in the war,
They all died in the war!"
Lin Zheng frowned when he heard this, "The Mebiers family even sacrificed their head to protect Antopia. In the end, is this how the nobles of Antopia treat the Mebiers family?"
Mero showed a wry smile, "For some people, the allure of power is unparalleled. In order to obtain power, they will not hesitate to throw away their ethics and integrity."
Mero changed the subject, "However, it is not that no one supports the Maybiers family. Mr. Lulan's Dalamar family is opposed to depriving our Maybiers family of seats. In addition to him, there are
The families of the five Round Table Councils also support us."
"Do you agree with the rest?"
"If everyone agrees, we won't have a chance." Mero said, "The reason why the Round Table Council has thirteen seats is to make the final decision based on the number of people when there are differences. If the same point of view is
If more than half of the people are elected, then their views will be finally recognized. This situation is quite special. The noble in the thirteenth seat did not make the final decision, but according to the rules, he cannot abstain from voting."
"What's the result?" Lin Zheng was very curious, "What kind of mess did that guy create?"
"An assessment for Ciro." Under Lin Zheng's clear expression, Mero continued: "The content of the assessment is quite simple and crude, but it was a more difficult and challenging matter for the former Ciro.
Opportunities were given to Ciro three times in total, but Ciro failed in the first two challenges!"
"What were the assessments?"
"The first assessment requires Siro's personal strength to reach the standard, and the way to reach the standard is to defeat an adult Jindora orangutan alone."
Jindora Orangutan, Lin Zheng knew about this thing. It was recorded in Barromir's travel notes. The strength of an adult Jindora Orangutan can reach level seven, and this thing also has a very powerful racial talent, steel skin.
, the defense ability is ridiculously high. If ordinary people don't have the strength of level eight to fight with this thing, they will simply be looking for abuse! It seems that the fence-sitting noble is not a good bird after all!
But, "If it's just a Jindola orangutan, that's no problem at all." Lin Zheng said very confidently, "When I train Xiro well, it's just a gorilla, it's no problem at all!"
"Yes!" Mero nodded with a smile on his face, "That's why I decided to let Cilla go to Antor together!"
The feeling of being trusted is still very good, "But this is not just the first item, what else is there?"
"There are two items left, but we haven't mentioned them yet. We have to wait until Silla passes the first assessment before we know what the next assessment will be."
After hearing this, Lin Zheng couldn't help but murmur. Sure enough, that fence-sitter is not a good bird. If he really supported Silla half-heartedly, he wouldn't come up with this underworld assessment method. This is not to show that Xi Luo is not allowed.
Did Luo pass the test?! Lin Zheng immediately said to Mero: "Don't worry! No matter what tricks that guy comes up with next, I guarantee that Siro will pass!" It's okay if I didn't know before, but now I know that I have
How can you tolerate a student's wealth being taken care of by others?!
"You know everything, sir?" Silla said with an embarrassed look, but as soon as he finished speaking, he received a violent shudder from Lin Zheng. He bared his teeth and heard Lin Zheng say angrily: "You idiot
Boy! You're hiding such a big thing from me. If your sister hadn't exposed it, would you have planned to keep hiding it?"
"After all, this is my own business. I don't want to trouble you, sir." Silla said with a grin, "And I don't value that seat that much. It doesn't matter if it's gone."
"Bullshit!" Lin Zheng's eyes suddenly glared, "If we are tired of sitting here and don't want this job, then forget it, but what is it now? Your father and mother worked hard for this country and put themselves on it.
However, those gangsters are adding insult to injury at this juncture and want to snatch this position away. Do you think this kind of thing can be ignored?!"
"Of course not!" Silla retorted immediately, but after finishing the rebuttal, he looked helpless, "But the assessment clearly doesn't want me to pass. Even if we pass the first assessment, we still don't know what will happen next.
Things are waiting for us, sir, you have already done too much for me, I can’t trouble you anymore."
"Pa!" Lin Zheng slapped Silla on the back of the head angrily, "Being a teacher is here to solve your problems. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will expel you from the school!"
Seeing Silla covering her mouth fearfully, Lin Zheng's expression softened immediately, and he casually touched Silla's head and said: "Practice hard, you just have to perfect your skills, and the rest is up to you.
Give it to me sir!"
"Sir," Silla's eyes were filled with emotion, but he soon firmed up, "Sir, don't worry, I will learn the skills you taught me well, and I will definitely succeed in the last test!"
That’s right! That’s the momentum!
Seeing Silla who was full of energy, Lin Zheng nodded happily. In order to make him more motivated, Lin Zheng immediately said: "Work hard. When you learn the moves, I will give you one later."
Weapons, I’m sure you’ll like them!”
As soon as he heard that Lin Zheng was going to give him a weapon, Silla really got excited. He already knew from his sister that not only was his strength unfathomable, but he was also an amazing craftsman. The weapons he sent were definitely good things.
!
"What did you say to Silla?" Ai Lei asked curiously, "What made him so excited all of a sudden."
As soon as Lin Zheng turned around, Xiao Meng'er, who was holding Ai Lei in his arms, cried out sweetly: "Dad! Hug!"
Seeing his daughter stretching out her little hand, Lin Zheng immediately rushed forward, took his daughter and held her in his arms for a while, making the little guy giggle, and then he smiled at Ai Lei and said, "It's nothing, I just said it."
I just want to give him a weapon."
"Did you make the weapon yourself?" Ai Lei couldn't help laughing, "Then no wonder Silla became so excited."
"Where is Lin Lin? Where did she go without you?"
When Merlin was mentioned, Ai Lei showed a somewhat dumbfounded expression, "I don't know if that girl was influenced by you. She has been looking for children everywhere in the city these past two days."
Lin Zheng was surprised when he heard this, "Why is she looking for a child? We have a little Meng'er at home, how cute little Meng'er is!"
Seeing the girl nodding her head in agreement, Ai Lei immediately laughed out loud. After that, she held back her smile and said to Lin Zheng: "She is going to open a magic training class. Now she has selected thirty children. She said...
Prepare to pick fifty."
Lin Zheng slapped himself on the forehead. Considering that this woman likes to give lectures to succubi in the Zhan Zhan Academy, Lin Zheng was a little confused. Does this woman have anything special about the profession of teacher?
