Warhammer Wizard

Chapter 843: elected consul

Ren left the stage after he finished speaking.

There was a low noise in the council room, and the expressions of more than 300 members were all wonderful.

Many of them participated in many consul votes, and some even participated in dozens of times, but it was the first time to see such a short speech as Renn.

Most of the candidates in the past will make full use of these fifteen minutes to expound their governing philosophy and policy of governing the country, promise what goals they will achieve during their term of office, make certain promises to the parliamentarians and the people of the empire, and criticize a little, Smear competitors, etc.

Ren didn't mention any of these things.

His words were not at all like a canvassing speech, but more like a declaration of victory, full of an unmistakable dictatorship and arrogance that made a few people uncomfortable.

However, more parliamentarians were convinced by this domineering.

In a world dominated by extraordinary power, people do not have to worship the strong, but the strong will worship the stronger.

No matter how wonderful the speech, in front of Ren's strength and achievements, it seems pale.

So the other candidates gave up speaking.

So Ren dared to be so arrogant.

On the rostrum, the three Holy Soul wizards were impressed by Ren's words and deeds. Even the sworn enemy Kelston couldn't help but be moved, looked at Ren carefully, and showed some praise in his eyes. Of course, he was more towards Ren. Well, the enemy's vigilance.

Anse Waldos is the calmest. He knows his students very well. After knowing Ren's ambition, he will not be surprised no matter what Ren does.

"Quiet."

Tim Kennan shouted loudly, and the congressmen quickly closed their voices and listened to him announce: "Vote now, and take office in the order of their seats."

With a wave of his hand, a cube with a length, width and height of about three meters appeared on the stage. This room-like thing was the polling station.

It is made of metal, with countless runes engraved on the surface, and a multi-layered rune array is arranged, which can isolate various spell detection and peeping thoughts, and is not affected by mind control. The side facing the stage is transparent. , you can see the actions of voters, and ensure the openness, fairness and justice of the voting process.

There is a door on each side of the polling station, the entrance and the exit.

The Imperial MPs entered, and after voting was completed, they came out through another door.

The first Imperial MP came to power.

Ren recognized the other party. He was an alchemy sage from the floating city of Ain. Since the establishment of the Imperial Parliament, Abnian has been a member of parliament, and is currently the oldest member of the parliament.

In every vote, Abnian is the first to come to power.

The old-fashioned Abnian walked steadily, walked on the stage swiftly, and entered the polling station.

Through the glass on the front, lawmakers saw a crystal-like gem in front of Abnian as he walked into the polling place.

This gem is specially made, and you can complete the input by holding the corresponding serial number in your hand.

Each serial number corresponds to a candidate, which cannot be changed after input.

And will leave its own breath.

The consul vote is a registered method, one person, one vote. After the event, the Supreme Council can issue a vote and check, which eliminates the uncertainty of voting and prevents some imperial parliamentarians from messing around.

Abnian took the dangling gem, paused, the gem in his hand flashed, the representative had completed the vote, and then released the gem, it was automatically teleported to a transparent but closed box, and displayed in front of everyone. .

He walked out of the polling station, followed by the second Imperial MP.

Then the third, the fourth...

Ren was sitting under the stage very close to the polling station, his eyes were calm, and he calmly watched the imperial congressmen go up to vote. On average, each person can complete it in less than ten seconds.

His eyes swept across the closed chest where the gems were kept, and the All-Seeing Eye had already been opened.

The rune circle at the polling station and the magic protection of the ballot box had no effect in his eyes. He directly saw the inside of the gem and saw the serial number inside.

13, 13, 13…

The Imperial Councillors who have completed their voting have all voted for number 13, which is their own serial number.

"It should be stable."

Ren was completely relieved.

The seats of the members are arranged according to the time they entered the Imperial Council, and there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors, but the higher the order, the more senior they are. Relatively young, the seats are close in order, and they belong to the young Zhuang faction.

Most of the members who voted in the past were from the Netzer faction and the balance faction, not the shareholders of the trading company. Now they have voted for themselves, so there is no suspense.

Soon after, Otiluk came to power.

The candidates for the consulship still have the right to vote. Otiluke was the first candidate to go up. He completed the vote without hesitation. When he stepped down, he glanced at Ren with a somewhat complicated look.

Ren nodded slightly to him.

The All-Seeing Eye can see clearly that number 13 is displayed in Otiluk's voting gem.

The imperial parliamentarians came to power one by one and cast their solemn votes under the supervision of the three Holy Soul Wizards.

The atmosphere was solemn and the ballot box filled with more and more gems.

Nearly an hour later, the voting is drawing to a close.

Viola got up on stage, and the shocking beauty of the half-elf attracted the attention of the imperial parliamentarians, but this attention only lasted for a few seconds, and all of them were attracted by Ren, who came to the stage closely behind. Ren and Viola entered the Imperial Parliament at the same time, and their seats are connected in sequence, and they are also one of the most junior members.

Wren entered the polling station and quickly completed the vote.

After him were three members who had just entered the Imperial Parliament in the past few years. In less than half a minute, the entire voting process was over.

"Bill now."

Tim Kennan walked to the side of the polling station, raised his hand and released a wave of soul power. Suddenly, the glass wall in front of the polling station turned into a magical image, and the names of the candidates were listed in a row. From left to right, each Each name has a columnar container above it.

The gems in the ballot box flew out from the air, shining and projecting a number.

The first gem is number 13.

It flashed into the magic image and put it into the container above "Renn Augustus", as if charging, the bottom of the column-shaped container lit up a grid, and the number "1" was displayed on the top.

That's one vote for Rennes.

The gems flew out one by one, and the speed was very fast. In a blink of an eye, more than a dozen of them had been billed, and all of them were voted for Ren's name. The column-shaped container had already lit up a little, and the number of votes was also rising rapidly, and soon surpassed 20 votes.

Tim Kennan didn't stop and continued to bill.

Soon, Renn's votes reached 30, 40, 70... When more than 100 votes were cast, all the other candidates still didn't get a single vote.

The Imperial Councillors looked at each other in dismay, and there was a commotion.

They have never seen this happen.

In the past, there were also some candidates who had absolute advantages. For example, the incumbent consuls were re-elected and got the support of the faction. Other factions also negotiated their interests, and the final vote rate exceeded 70%, and may even reach 80%.

Even so, the other candidates get at least some votes, more or less, never a single one.

Invoicing is still in progress.

More and more gems were put into Ren's name, and the columns lighted up one by one from the bottom of the cylindrical container, and the number of votes quickly approached 160.

Under imperial law, the candidate with more than half of the votes wins the election.

There were 319 Imperial MPs present, and the criteria for winning the election was to get 160 votes. If no candidate wins more than half of the votes, then the names of the top three candidates will be submitted to the Supreme Council, and the Holy Soul Wizards will raise their hands to vote to elect the consul.

Of course, the winner with more than half of the votes must also obtain the approval of the Supreme Council before taking office.

There are no special circumstances, the only winner is the new consul, and the Supreme Council generally does not veto it. But it is not absolute. There has been a case in the history of the Empire where the election was won, but it was not passed in the Supreme Council vote.

Under the surprised gazes of the Imperial MPs, Ren's votes exceeded 160!

clap clap clap!

The imperial parliamentarians applauded unanimously, and Ren stood up to raise his hand to the people, but did not speak, because the billing was not over yet.

In the continuous warm applause, Renn's votes are still rising rapidly.

It quickly surpassed 200 votes.

Two-thirds of the votes have been drawn, and the other candidates are still without a single vote, and their names are bleak, making Ryan's name even brighter.

The imperial parliamentarians stared at the magic image, their eyes full of incredible.

220 votes, 250 votes, 280 votes…

Renn's votes exceeded the 300 mark, still 100% of the votes. The Imperial MPs held their breaths involuntarily. There were only 19 votes left. Will there be a miracle?

After a few breaths, the last gem flashed out of the ballot box, shining brightly, and in the eyes of everyone, it was thrown into the container where Ren's name was.

"Wow..."

The imperial parliamentarians were in an uproar, and a miracle really happened.

Unanimously elected!

This is the first time that an unanimous consul has been elected since the establishment of the Imperial Parliament for more than a thousand years. Everyone knows how difficult it is. Being elected by unanimous votes not only means the approval of the imperial parliamentarians, but also convinces all competitors.

Even the most prestigious consul, it is almost impossible for his competitors to vote for him.

And Ren did it!

There are a total of fifteen candidates in this election. Except for Rennes, the other 14 contenders voted for Rennes, which is absolutely unprecedented.

"Clap clap clap..."

More than 300 imperial parliamentarians all stood up and paid the highest respect to Ren, and the three Holy Soul wizards on the rostrum also applauded.

At this moment, everyone gathered in Ren.

Although Ren had already known the result of the vote in advance with his all-seeing eye, he was also surprised that he would be elected unanimously. In his opinion, it is no surprise to convince other candidates that they participated in the revenge operation together, and it is normal for them to vote for themselves after witnessing the credit they have made.

What really surprised him was that the members of the Netherite faction also voted for him.

One-third of the Imperial Councillors controlled by the Netherites.

But not united.

Ren once made a list, and some of the councilors were from Nether Floating City and obeyed the orders of Floating City, not Kelston.

Some of them joined the trading company. After investigation, they believed that they could win over. They exchanged the shares of shareholders for votes.

Part of them came from the floating city of Ain, and they followed the great sage Congerard. Because they resurrected the sage of Chanyen, the relationship between the two parties has been much closer, and they are willing to vote for themselves.

The rest are diehards.

There are about forty members of these members, and they are completely under the orders of Kelston, Duke of Redstone. Ren strategically abandoned these members and did not do much work.

However, they voted for themselves.

Ren looked at Kelston on the stage, and the mortal enemy was also looking at him. The other party noticed his gaze and showed no hostility at all. He even showed a smile and nodded slightly.

Kelston took the initiative to release goodwill.

This surprised Ren. The eye of the soul observed the other party and found that Kelston's hostility to him was still there. The color of his soul was red, but it was not as red and black as before, indicating that the hostility had subsided a lot, and it was no longer so strong.

"what's the situation?"

Ren was confused.

I and Kelston have been immortal for a long time, and there has been no intersection in the past few years, but in private, the two sides have tried their best. Make a stumbling block and destroy the opponent's floating city and territory.

How suddenly, Kelston's position softened?

Is he cowardly?

Ren immediately rejected this speculation. With Kelston's arrogant and arrogant character, he would never bow his head to anyone, let alone admit defeat.

He even dared to calculate Master Ogulevi, how could he be submissive to himself?

The only possibility is that Kelston is planning a bigger conspiracy, but it will take time. Now that he is powerful, his strength has skyrocketed, and he has the artifact holy blood amber, he can only avoid the edge for a while and show his favor through this vote. Paralyze yourself and gain leeway and time.

Ren immediately thought of something.

Kelston has been conducting a certain magical experiment for many years, and no one but himself knows the content of this magical experiment.

His retreating gesture must be related to this magic experiment!

"Congratulations to Speaker Ren. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

"Congratulations to Speaker Rennes for becoming the first unanimously elected consul."

Ren was still thinking about what conspiracy Kelston had, and the surrounding imperial parliamentarians congratulated him one after another. He had to put away his mind, smiled, and responded: "Thank you for your support. Thank you for your votes for me. With every vote, I will do my best so that you will not regret your choice today."

He didn't appear too excited, and the process was still one last step away.

That is the vote of the Supreme Council.

The three Holy Soul Wizards on the stage have disappeared, and the parliamentarians know that the Holy Soul Wizards are voting by show of hands, and the results will come out soon.

Sure enough, a few minutes later.

The figure of Tim Kennan, Duke of Grey Eagle, returned to the rostrum and announced loudly: "The Supreme Council unanimously voted, and Ren Augustus was elected the 120th and 45th consul of the Empire!"
