Chapter 811: Duke of Grey Eagle

Latest website: A team of Rick guards respectfully escorted Rennes into the Castle of Futbeiden, turned left on the square, and entered the Dutch Palace.
This is not the first time Renn has come to the Dutch Palace.
Along the way, he looked at this luxurious and majestic palace garden, with a feeling of being inhumane. When he came last time, Gneus was still the consul and the master of the Dutch palace. Now not only is Gneus dead, he has to take his place.
Today's Dutch Palace is busier than ever, and the roads come and go, whether it is a civil servant who is a consul or a member of a council meeting the Duke of Grey Eagle.
When they saw Rennes, their eyes widened.
Speaker Rennes!
During this special period, Speaker Rennes entered the Dutch Palace to visit the Lord Duke. Even the duller, he guessed Ren's purpose.
People concealed their shock and saluted Rennes.
When they crossed with Renn, they couldn't help but look back at Ren's back, their hearts beating, this is definitely big news.
Speaker Rennes wants to run for consul!
Some people paused and ran quickly again, or took out a voice meter to whisper quickly.
While watching all the way, Ren arrived at the main building of the Dutch Palace. This three-story building was originally the emperor’s residence. It was located on the bank of the lotus lake with a wide view. Later, it was transformed into an office building and named "Government Hall".
For many years, successive consuls have worked in the Palace of Government, which is the administrative center of the empire.
Today, sitting in the ruling hall is Tim Kenan, Duke of Grey Eagle.
"Speaker Rennes, please wait a moment."
The Rick guard led Ren to the waiting hall on the first floor of the ruling hall. On the way there, someone had already reported in advance.
There were many people in the waiting hall, all waiting for the reception of Lord Duke.
They were shocked when they saw Ren's reaction like the people outside, but they didn't dare to show it in front of Renn.
Among them are two imperial councillors.
They seem to have also come to report their candidacy. When they see Ren, their expressions become very exciting in an instant.
"Speaker Rennes!"
Everyone got up and saluted, and Renn nodded in response.
One of the empire councillors is a legendary transcendent who has served as the mayor of a large city in the southeastern province of the empire for many years. He is also a Mordu man. He has contacted Rennes several times and finally couldn't help but ask: "Speaker Rennes, you too…"
Before he could finish his words, a legendary wizard came in and said enthusiastically: "Speaker Rennes, Lord Duke invites you in."
The wizard's magic robe has an eight-leaf emblem, which is obviously from the Floating City of Flannes.
Ren followed him to the waiting hall, and the other party opened an arbitrary door, stepped in, and went directly to the office on the top floor of the ruling hall.
From any door, I saw Duke Grey Eagle at a glance.
The attire of this holy soul wizard seems to never change. Under a thick black robe is a tall and strong body. His head is shiny, the bottom of his black beard is sharply trimmed, and his face is unsmiling. Standing in the middle of the large office is extremely impressive. Great sense of oppression.
He was waiting for Ren's arrival.
"Lord Duke." Renn bowed in greeting.
Tim Kenan looked at Rennes with a deep gaze for a few seconds, nodded slightly, and said, "We have met many times, but this should be our first personal contact in person. Your strength is stronger than I expected. Many, it is enviable that Anxi can have students like you."
In the last auction of Floating City, Duke Grey Eagle did not propose to communicate privately, but focused on participation. Moreover, Renn was the host and he was the guest. He was silent during the auction.
Today, he was saying compliments, but there was no smile on his face.
Instead, the eyes of the soul sensed the hostility.
This hostility is very shallow. To be precise, it should be indifferent and annoying, not out of personal grievances, but the result of different positions.
Ren knew why the other party hated him.
He responded neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Excellency the Duke has praised you."
"Huh." Duke Grey Eagle snorted in his nostrils and said bluntly: "With your current strength and status, I have no need to be polite with you. The current situation in the empire is out of balance. A big reason is that you appeared in the past. For several years, you have been behind a series of things."
Ren shrugged, "Some things are beyond my control. Lord Duke can't put the blame on me."
"Really?" Tim Kenan stared at Renn coldly. "You were forced to win Oroin?"
Master Oroin was originally a member of the Balance Sect, but no one in the Supreme Council knew that he has now completely fallen to the Mordu Sect, with no announcement.
The balance faction originally consisted of four holy soul wizards, and the other two factions also had four each, which was very balanced.
Duke Ziyan fell to the Netherite.
Master Oluoin joined the Mordu faction.
Now there are only Tim Kenan and Master Huo Huai of the balance faction. With two votes, the influence in the Supreme Council has dropped greatly. He can only join forces with Kelstrom to fight against the Mordu faction, which has half the votes. Let the Supreme Council maintain a fragile balance.
It's just that the tripod has become a two-power struggle for hegemony.
As a result, the balance group has no room for manipulation, cannot jump repeatedly, and greatly reduces the right to speak.
The last time Tim Kenan was put on by Kelston, he lost his face. He had to cooperate with the other party before he found it, and he was hampered everywhere. This time he paid a lot for the power of the consul. The price was won.
His purpose is to help Ottiluke.
Ottiluke has followed himself for a lifetime, without merit and hard work. Now he has no hope of being promoted to the Holy Spirit Wizard. He wants to serve as a consul in the last few decades of his life, make a difference, and leave his name in the history of the empire. Help him fulfill this dream.
Unexpectedly, Rennes kicked in.
Tim Kenan knows Rehn's details well than most. Whether it is personal strength or the extraordinary army under his command, Ottyluk is more than eight blocks behind.
Even if Flaannis's "Hands of Eight Leaves" were given to Ottyluk, the chance of defeating Rennes in the battle was very slim.
That's why Tim Kenan was angry when he saw Renne, and it's weird to be happy.
In the face of questioning, Renn showed no fear.
"Master Oroin has always wanted to grow the fighting school. As a junior combat wizard, it is normal for me to help him realize his ideals." Rehn took it for granted, "As for whom Master Oroin voted for, this is him. I’ve never interfered, and I have no right to interfere.

Tim Kenan spit out two words: "Sophistry."
"This is a fact." Rennes replied earnestly: "If the Duke doesn't believe it, I can't help it."
He almost wrote "Believe it or not" on his face.
This attitude made Tim Kenan even more displeased, and said coldly: "In that small plane, you accused Kelston of being a villain face to face. I admire your courage. Now it seems that you are better than Kelston is not much better. Kelston is only sinister and selfish, and your ambition is even worse. Sooner or later you will completely break the balance of the empire and cause huge disasters."
Ren's heart shook a bit, could it be that the other party guessed his plan?
should not.
The Eye of Soul confirms that Tim Kenan's emotions are not fierce. If he knew that he was going to overthrow the Supreme Council, he would never just be reprimanding, he would have done it a long time ago.
Rehn’s face remained calm,
My lord, not everyone believes in the theory of balance. Please don’t convict me with the so-called breaking of balance, and it didn’t happen.

"Do you think the balance theory is wrong?"
Tim Kenan asked very calmly, his tone was calm, but his breath became dangerous.
Rehn became vigilant in his heart. The theory of balance is what Tim Kennan values ​​most. What he has done in his life, his magical path, his floating city and students, and the whole school of ideas are all based on this Set balance theoretically.
To deny the balance theory is to deny everything about Tim Kenan.
The eyes of the soul saw the opponent's emotions gradually turn red.
"My Lord Duke misunderstood."
Rehn didn’t want to completely annoy the Big Three of the Empire, but he didn’t immediately counsel him. He calmly explained:
I’m a Mordu wizard, I don’t know much about balance theory, and I’m very superficial. I only know that there is no absolute in things. Only relative, balance should be the same."
"All things have relative balance, not absolute balance."
"It's like the change of the empire's structure, sometimes peace and stability, sometimes wars and disputes, and always in constant change. The historical process is like sawing wood, sometimes forward, sometimes backward, but in general, it is a deep development and a spiral. ."
"The only constant in the world is change."
"Balance is also constantly changing. As for how to define balance or not, everyone's standards are different. Lord Duke, what do you think?"
Rehn's words meant something.
In the future, when Tim Kenan thinks of it, he will wake up to the real meaning of these words.
But at the moment, he was inspired.
The holy soul wizard's eyes were shining, and he was chewing on a few words: relative balance, absolute balance, the only constant is change...
He couldn't help being lost in thought.
It wasn't until a long time later that Tim Kenan came back to his senses. He couldn't help taking a high look at Renn, and said lightly: "Your thoughts are deeper than I thought. We can discuss it if we have the opportunity in the future."
His attitude seems indifferent, but in fact he is very interested.
Suddenly, Renn felt a little panicked.
I don't have any thoughts, it's all some fur knowledge from the past life, half a jar of water jingles in my stomach, and it will be revealed if I continue.
Fortunately, Tim Kenan got back to business and asked: "Rene, you want to run for consul?"
"Yes, Lord Duke."
Rehn squeezed a sweat in his heart, but fortunately he flickered.
"What good is this for you?"
Tim Kenan asked while sitting behind his desk. He pointed to the documents on the desk half a meter high, and shook his head: "The consul has to deal with these things every day, and this is only part of it. I only But for the time being less than ten days as a consul, I already feel bored, and I just want to complete the revenge action as soon as possible and leave this position to others."
He looked at Renne, his face a little puzzled, "With your natural strength, sooner or later you want to enter the Supreme Council, why come from asking for hardship?"
In fact, Tim Kenan learned about it from Ansi ten days ago.
He has been waiting for Ren to come.
Renn had already figured out his rhetoric. He smiled and pointed to the thick paper on the table, "My lord, these are annoying mundane things in your eyes, but most people in the world see them. Here, they represent power, immense power!"
"True power comes from extraordinary power and magic." Tim Kenan disagreed.
"We need to add an attributive before this sentence—strong enough." Ren shook his head. "Not every transcendent person has the opportunity to be promoted to the holy ranks. Compared with the imperial congressmen, being a consul has a huge gain. The power of this road is easier to achieve."
The position of the Archon in the empire is only under the Supreme Council.
The power of the consul was greater than the few holy soul wizards who were indifferent to fame and fortune in the Supreme Forum.
Tim Kenan knows this of course. He stared at Renne as if trying to find out the answer in his body, "Others have no chance, but you have. I can see that you are already at the pinnacle of the legend, and you should be able to break through soon. To the holy soul wizard, right?"
Ren nodded and admitted frankly.
"I want to experience what it's like to be a consul before entering the Supreme Council." He said half-truth and half-truth: "Lord Duke, I was a child born in the country. When I was a child, I never thought that one day I would be where I am today. Status."
"I'm very young, and my future life will be very long. I don't want to study magic all day."
"So I want to try more."
"In different positions, meeting different people, seeing different things, making different achievements, enriching my life experience."
Wren faced Tim Kennan sincerely, and said seriously: "The Archon is a very good title, it can bring me glory and power. I want to see what I can do if I govern the empire. To the point, it may bring a surprise to the people of the Empire and the Supreme Council."
Tim Kenan was silent.
Ren's words are very convincing, he is indeed too young, only twenty-seven years old, not even his own fraction.
Young people are always more motivated and like to seek fresh stimuli, which is also normal.
As for whether Renn will become a governor and mess up the empire, Tim Kenan is not worried. Judging from Renn's past achievements, he is a very capable person.
Even if Rennes made a mistake, there would still be the Supreme Council sitting on it, and there would be no big storms.
Anse Waldos would not ignore it either.
After Tim Kenan thought it over, UU reading www.uukanshu.com thought it was a good idea to give Rennes a chance, and nodded: "I accept your application."
According to the election rules, he has no right to refuse.
But it’s better to get consent, lest he doesn’t deal with himself in the vengeance. Rehn was very pleased and said: "Master Kenan, if I win the vote in the Imperial Council, can you give it to me in the Supreme Council? Vote yes?"
The Mordu faction has only six votes.
However, the Supreme Council requires more than half of the resolutions to pass, which is far from the most critical vote. If you can get the support of Tim Kenan, plus two votes for him and Master Huo Huai, it will be safe.
Tim Kenan showed a smile on his face and asked playfully: "What reason do you have for me to vote for?"
He is waiting to make an offer.
Ryan understood at a glance, this was the real purpose of his visit to the Dutch Palace today, and he was already ready to deal with the bargaining chip.
