Karl's figure suddenly appeared outside the duel stage. Before he could even react, with a subconscious thought, a new translucent defensive force field quickly spread on his body, and at the same time he raised his arm to block it.
"Um?"
The next second, no attack came, and the raging flames disappeared without a trace. Only then did Karl react belatedly.
"hiss……"
"what happened?"
"Karl...lost?"
At the same time, noisy sounds came from the auditorium at the rear. Every congressman present, including Noyce and Titus, was stunned for a second before they reacted.
As for the elder of the Nikle tribe, his face was no longer calm, and was as gloomy as the bottom of a pot.
'Karl actually lost?'
'No, then Colin can actually defeat a third-level intermediate wizard? Didn't he just advance to the third level?'
The slender Raiden looked at Colin's projection in the duel stage and raised his eyebrows:
"interesting."
His voice was extremely special, like the sound of gold and iron, or the crackle of electricity.
After the scene was noisy for a while, it suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Noyce regained his calm expression, flew to the duel stage, and waved his hand to teleport Colin out.
"Good job."
There were many things he wanted to ask Colin, but in the end he just smiled and patted Colin on the shoulder - now it was more important to let the awarding ceremony continue.
Noyce turned around, glanced around the House of Representatives, and said:
"The duel is over. Karl was teleported out by the witch formation on the duel stage because he was in danger of being seriously injured.
Therefore, according to the regulations, the winner of this duel is Colin Leonard, who has proven that he has the ability to serve as a parliamentarian!"
Noyce smiled, looked at Nickler, and continued: "I think you all have no objections to this, right?
The lawmakers shook their heads.
Snapped.
Bang bang bang——
At this moment, Nickler suddenly raised his hand and took the lead in applauding.
"It's true that a hero emerges from a young age!" He said unhurriedly, "Having just advanced to the third-level wizard, he is able to defeat the third-level intermediate Carl. It's really amazing."
Many congressmen nodded in agreement and looked at Noyce, hoping to get more information from him.
The battle just now was too fast, and the duel was in another dimension. The broadcast of the wizard formation was limited and it was impossible to transmit all the details.
So even though they are all high-level wizards, they still know little about this battle.
But Noyce narrowed his eyes and did not continue to follow Nickler's words. Instead, he continued to the congressman:
"Let's move on to the next step in the ritual."
…
Not long after, the congressmen returned to the emblem ceremony hall through the teleportation array.
The second part of the awarding ceremony begins.
Solemn music slowly sounded, and the congressmen stood up one after another, watching Colin slowly walk up to the pedestal.
"Congratulations, Colin."
Noyce couldn't hide the bright smile on his face. He picked up an exquisite dark gold badge from the wooden box held by the wizard on the side.
A circle of thorn-like flames wraps a half-open eye. This is the badge worn by ordinary members of the Supreme Council, and it is also one of the highest status representatives on the Siya continent!
Amidst the sound of music, Noyce personally pinned the badge on Colin's white witch robe on his chest, then turned around and said with a little pride:
“Let’s congratulate the new MP!”
Colin's performance in the battle just now really surprised him. Looking at Nickler's pretendingly indifferent face, Noyce felt extremely relieved.
At this point, Colin's becoming a member of the Supreme Council has been finalized and has become an established fact.
Unless he betrays the wizard, or the six supreme council members speak out, no one can deprive Colin of his status as a member of the Supreme Council!
The music gradually stopped.
Noyce began the final part of the awarding ceremony.
"Colin Leonard, congratulations on becoming a member of the Supreme Council today.
But please remember that while gaining transcendent power, you will also shoulder the same important responsibility..."
Noyce read out slowly. He looked at Colin with high hopes in his eyes.
This young wizard really brought him too many surprises. He has just advanced to the third level wizard. He is looking forward to what kind of surprises he will see from Colin in the future!
"Next, like all other members, you will be assigned a territory and shoulder the important responsibility of managing it in the days to come."
Noyce finally said, and a waiter came up at the right time, holding a wooden box sealed by the witch formation in his hand, and handed it to Noyce.
What is contained inside is the map of the area Colin was assigned this time, as well as the corresponding artifacts representing the ruling status.
Noyce glanced at Colin, reached out and opened the wooden box.
The regions to which new members will be assigned will be decided before the badge awarding ceremony, and the specific method is through a vote by members.
The Supreme Councilor will list the appropriate areas one by one and send them to all councilors in the Wizarding City where the new wizard belongs to vote.
The deadline for voting is 12 o'clock in the evening the day before the badge awarding ceremony. The necessary condition is that the participation of members must reach more than 80%, otherwise it will be postponed.
However, if you do not participate in the voting and there is no valid reason later, a certain amount of supreme council points will be deducted, so the participation rate is usually at least 90%, and there will be no delay.
There were only two items in the black wooden box, a crystal the size of a pigeon egg, and a well-made silver ring inlaid with a yellow gemstone.
Seeing this familiar ring, Noyce's face darkened.
He picked up the crystal, and a familiar area was projected.
"The Kingdom of Loen?"
Colin on the side was stunned for a moment.
"To be precise, it's the entire Tiramei Plain." Noyce frowned.
Just as he said, the landscape projection mapped by the crystal gradually shrank. The Kingdom of Loen, which originally occupied the entire projection, gradually shrank, and finally only occupied less than one-sixth of the entire projection.
The Kingdom of Loen, or the Golden Wheat of Neustadt, is located in the center of the entire Tiramei Plain. It is not only the kingdom with the most fields in the entire Tiramei Plain - it occupies almost half of it, but also the entire Tiramei Plain.
The most powerful kingdom.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! It nominally rules the remaining kingdoms of the Tiramei Plain.
Therefore, for the convenience of management, the Tiramei Plain is generally regarded as a whole.
And that silver ring is Tielaime's highest symbol of power.
The Loen family has existed nearly a thousand years ago, and this ring was first worn by members of the Loen family.
Although the congressman died later, there were still several congressmen in the Loen family, and the ring has been passed down in their hands.
So much so that later on, there were no members of the Loen family in a certain generation, but other members still acquiesced that Ti Laimei Plain was managed by the Loen family.
Of course, part of the reason is that although the Loen family has no members, it still has many high-level wizards.
This situation lasted until the past hundred years and has gradually changed.
Noyce knew that many senators and families were gradually beginning to covet the Tiramei Plain.
This plain, which produces more than half of the food in the entire Neustadt region, can bring astonishing benefits.
But that was before, before the gods struck.
If those farmlands were not polluted and Colin could be assigned to manage the Tiramei Plain, Noyce would probably not be able to stop the smile on his face.
But now... Noyce looked up at the congressmen in the audience, and his eyes paused for a moment on Nickler.
Unfortunately, just as Nickler could not prevent Colin from becoming a member of Parliament, he could not change the fact that Colin was assigned to manage the Tielaimei Plain.
"Congressman Colin, the area you have been assigned is the Tieraime Plain." Noyce suppressed his emotions and continued the ceremony.
He picked up the silver ring from the wooden box and handed it to Colin along with the crystal.
"When you receive this ring, you will become the actual manager of the entire Tiramei Plain.
From then on, the prosperity and decline of the entire region will be with you, both prosperous and destructive."
"Take the ring. I will help you find a solution regarding the farmland." Noyce finally whispered to him.
Colin nodded and took it, without much panic on his face.
Such a reaction made Nickler in the audience feel a little disappointed.
In his opinion, Colin may not even know what this means to him.
There are few mineral veins in the Ti Laimei Plain and no magic stones are produced. The main pillar industry is the farmland.
But now the farmland is ruined, and according to Nickler's inquiries, it is extremely difficult to remove the pollution from those farmlands, and it can even be said to be completely unrealistic.
The Wizards of the Council are already planning to reclaim new lands elsewhere.
Therefore, it is foreseeable that in the future, the entire Tiramei Plain will decline rapidly and even become as desolate as the Gobi!
Colin will not be able to obtain any magic stones from it at all. If he fails to deal with the famine and turmoil that may follow, he may be punished by the Supreme Council for this!
You must know that one of the biggest benefits of becoming a Supreme Councilor is to manage a territory of your own.
Although the area you manage is not completely owned by you in name, in fact there is not much difference at all!
Councilors can completely rely on the territory they manage to achieve freedom of magic stones, and basically no longer need to worry about training resources!
After Colin received the ring, the awarding ceremony was basically over.
The staff came on stage at the right time, and with the help of witchcraft, in a short time, the solemn emblem awarding hall was changed into a party hall.
Usually, those who are busy at this time will leave, while those who are not busy will stay and chat with other members who are also staying.
But this time, almost all the MPs stayed.
"Congratulations on becoming a member of Parliament."
As a new member of parliament, Colin naturally stayed.
He stood at the dining table covered with a clean white cloth, and one after another the congressmen came to congratulate him.
After a while, Colin gained a lot, greatly broadened his horizons, and gained a clearer understanding of these people at the top of the wizarding world.
Among them, the one who impressed him most deeply was the genius wizard named Raiden.
"Leiden Zlit, you are very strong. Let's spar together when you have time."
Leiden came over and stretched out his palm. He only said this sentence, shook hands with him, and then turned around and left.
In addition, it seems that in order to avoid the influence of the family behind him, Noyce did not stay with him until after the whole party was over.
"How does it feel?"
The two were walking in the corridor, and Noyce asked aloud.
"not bad."
"That's good." Noyce smiled, then paused and said, "Do you still remember the senior congressman sitting in the middle of the front row at the beginning today?"
"Remember."
"His name is Nickle Tate. He is the patriarch of my family. The wizard who challenged you to a duel should have been ordered by him."
Colin paused slightly.
"The family behind me is both a support and a constraint." Noyce said calmly, "That's why I did not continue to accompany you after the awarding."
"You can't have too many Tate family seals on you.
Although this may result in less benefits at the beginning, only in this way can you be less constrained later. Do you understand, Colin?"
"Yeah." Colin nodded.
"Work hard to improve yourself." Noyce patted Colin on the shoulder, "I will help you find a solution for farmland pollution."
"Thank you." Colin said, then paused and asked, "Mr. Noyce, aren't you curious why I was able to defeat the third-level intermediate Karl just after I advanced to the third level?"
Noyce stopped, looked at Colin, smiled and asked: "Are you a believer in the gods?"
Colin shook his head.
"Are you plotting something against the wizard?"
Colin continued to shake his head.
"Since it's not the case, then I don't need to explore your strength. It's your secret. When you want to tell me, you will tell me naturally." Noyce continued:
"Furthermore, there are many geniuses in this world. It is nothing new for a third-level junior to defeat a third-level intermediate. What's more, you only broke through Karl's defense, causing the witch formation on the duel stage to teleport him out. If it were a life-and-death fight, the result is still unknown.
.”
Colin nodded and said no more.
Noyce looked at Colin's calm expression and nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, he lied. There was indeed a third-level junior wizard who defeated a third-level intermediate wizard, but Colin defeated a third-level intermediate Supreme Council Member, the best among wizards!
And strictly speaking, Colin is not really a third-level junior wizard, he has just advanced to the third level!
"By the way, one more thing, do you want to change schools of thought?" Noyce asked again.
"You are a congressman and you should not continue to stay in the Xisheng School. The Xisheng School is an affiliate of the Ishtar School. If you want, you can join the Ishtar School now."
"Can I not join the school?" Colin paused and asked.
His sole purpose of joining the school before was to acquire knowledge, mainly the complete inheritance of meditation methods.
But now that he has become a member of Parliament, he no longer has to worry about the knowledge of meditation. He can't think of any reason for him to continue to stay in the school.
"...Of course." Noyce was stunned for a moment and replied with a smile.
"You can go directly to the Xisheng School later, and you can leave the school with the Congressman's Badge."
"In terms of status, congressmen are one level higher than most of the senior officials of the Xisheng School. If there are legitimate reasons, you can even order them."
"I understand." Colin nodded, he had gradually begun to adapt to the change in his identity.
