Not only is Arthur powerful, everyone knows that the Pope has regarded Arthur as an important training object, and now Arthur is not only a high priest who broke the rules of the Holy See for hundreds of years, and his future is limitless.
The winner gets everything, which has always been the rules of the game for Orcs.
At this time, classmate Arthur was not idle, and he had to face some guests, such as his old boss, Sir William.
At this time, William's triangular face is almost pulled into four corners. It's a loss, it's a loss, although he beat Arthur to win, but that point is not even a fraction. .
"Is the supervisor here to see if I have hung up?"
"Haha, Arthur, you are really joking, you are the pillar of our apostles!" William said solemnly.
"Don't dare, you go to the Three Treasures Hall without anything, tell me, is there any good news?"
"Hmph, of course, this time the winner, the Holy See will give a big prize, don't you want to know what it is?" Sir William said with a smile.
Zou Liang shrugged indifferently, causing William to almost choke, "You really don't want to know?"
"It's a surprise to keep something you need to know sooner or later." Chu Liang said, he knew William too well, and he knew from this guy that he must pay the price.
"Hehe, this is not just a surprise, you have to prepare in advance." William was not in a hurry.
Chu Liang still understands William's character relatively well, and the other party won't aim at nothing, and he won't do the tricky thing.
"Why don't you talk about it."
"Hey, His Majesty the Pope's opinion is to come up with a city and give birth to a true city lord!"
William laughed.
Chu Liang was also shocked, "What do you mean?"
"Hehe, the highest authority who combines the power of the temple and the consul, the true city lord!"
William's triangular eyes narrowed into a slit. He couldn't believe that this kid was not tempted. Grandma's, he was tempted.
"City Lord, yes, yes, the Grand Consul probably won't agree easily."
"That's not what you have to worry about. I think you already know the crux of the problem, right?" William said.
"Which city?" Chu Liang asked directly.
"Hehe, the dispute is here, the city of the surname Tuo near the imperial capital, the power of our Holy See is dominant, the city of Karumbore in the north, the power of the consul is a bit stronger, and the other is the city of Dolan that you are very familiar with, but The situation in Dolan City is more complicated and difficult now."
William swallowed his saliva. It was obvious that the city with the surname was the best. It was close to the imperial capital. At the same time, the Holy See was relatively strong and easy to take over. It's a city full of eight classics, where is Dolan... ,... If William didn't say anything, it was a ruin, and there were many wars, and there was no value at all.
"You are the hope of our apostles, and I will definitely help you to enter the city of Yao!" Sir William began to express his credit.
In fact, a high-level meeting of the Council of Elders will be held in the evening, and it will be decided that William is qualified to participate.
Thom City is close to the imperial capital, with convenient transportation and very good urban construction. It can be said to be full of oil and water, with a population of about one million.
To rule a city like this, under one person and above ten million people, is absolutely everyone's dream, and such a good thing is about to come to Arthur, and frankly, even William is envious.
Zou Liang looked at William and smiled, "Sir, isn't it convenient for the apostles to turn around recently?"
"Hey, you also know that our apostles spend a lot of money, and they hardly make any money. I have lost a bit of this recently, and my life is really not easy. Just relying on the above allocation and the donations of believers is not enough. You see I'm getting thinner."
Chu Liang smiled and scolded inwardly, such shameless words are allowed. He is indeed more heated than him, this guy is the Oscar-winning actor.
It's all about the exchange, obviously.
"As a member of the apostles, I should do my best. Well, I will ask the fifth sister to give you a golden ticket in a while."
William's face immediately bloomed like a lily, "Haha, I knew that Priest Arthur was the most devout believer!"
A golden ticket is 10,000 gold coins, which is quite astonishing. William knew very well that at most he was the icing on the cake, and he did not dare to open his mouth. This amount was beyond imagination.
"However, I hope Sir William can help communicate, I want to go to Dolan City!"
Zou Liang said very seriously.
William was stunned, really stunned, he never dreamed that Arthur would choose Dolan City.
"Arthur, are you sure that the current situation in Dolan City is not very good, ... to be precise, it is very bad!"
"Lord William, I am both a priest and an apostle of the beast god. The other two cities don't need me." Chu Liang said sincerely.
William stared at Arthur, he was really confused, is this kid real or fake? ?
The Pope also wanted to arrange for him to go to Thom City, but the opposition would be fierce, not only from outside the Holy See, but also from inside. After all, everyone knew about the relationship between Arthur and Subaru.
Chu Liang smiled calmly, "I don't want to embarrass everyone, and I'm still young, it's better to hone it!"
William is indeed stunned by Arthur. If he is not familiar with Arthur, he will think Arthur is a little idiot with a hot brain, because he is not so naive in life, but on the contrary, he knows Arthur very well. This guy is dressed in bear skin. the little fox!
But on the surface, it is really watertight.
William still expressed his respect and walked away with a smile on his golden ticket. After receiving the money, things were easy to do. Who wasn't happy? !
"Brother, why did you choose Dolan City?" Avril was a little puzzled.
Chu Liang put her hand on her neck and leaned against the back of the chair, "What do you think?"
"Do you have feelings for Zalan City?" Avril said.
Zou Liang smiled, "On the one hand, I won't be emotional about such a big thing."
"Thom City is naturally good, but everyone is watching, and everyone is watching every move. The power of the elders' society is so huge. Although I am the city owner, I am afraid it is not that easy to do anything, and a small mistake will be magnified. , we only have a name, we cannot compete with any family in terms of power, the old forces are intricate, and if one is bad, we will fall into it." Zou Liang said slowly.
"Karen Bohr, the sphere of influence of the consul system, and in the north, the infighting is too fierce, it's meaningless!"
When he said this, Zou Liang had a different kind of momentum. The struggle for power is basically internal friction, and it is easy to consume the fighting spirit. The most important thing is that Zou Liang is very clear about what the outside world is like. The Land of Wind, Hannibal , eyeing.
Born in trouble and dead in peace!
"Brother, you want to build your own world!"
That is, her own family would say such "outrageous" words, and Avril's eyes lit up.
"Duolan City is located in the south, and its inherent influence can be exerted, and we have a foundation in the battle of defending the city. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the elders will not care too much. Although it is a little broken, all these can be changed, and from the geographical point of view. In terms of location, it is not too far from the borders of the Wilderness, the Land of Wind, and Hannibal, hehe, sometimes danger also means opportunity!"
"Brother, I understand, everything is done according to your wishes!"
Avril really understands Arthur's heart, but others still underestimate Arthur's "ambition". He doesn't really care about changes in his position. The important thing is to cultivate his own power, and power is obviously in Dolan. City is more suitable.
What they lacked in the past was money, but now what they lacked most was money.
"How about the recovery of the funds?"
"Brother, you can now be considered one of the top ten richest people in the imperial capital, and it's all cash." Avril said with a smile.
"How many?"
"In a mess, there are 28.53 million gold coins. During this time, the total profit of the various items of the beast spirit store is also more than 2 million gold coins. We can use the cash flow of 30 million gold coins to do anything. thing!"
Only Avril Lavigne knows the real amount, and outsiders only know that it is huge, but in fact it can no longer be described as huge. After all, there are only a few people who are very smashing like the Gabriel family, but they can't stand the crowd. There are too many people participating!
Young Dang nodded, not shocked by this number, similar to the network effect, nothing could hold back the crowd, and the imperial capital was indeed rich, the orcs were very gambling, not to mention it was so obviously "cheap".
Avril had infinite admiration in her heart. When she settled the bill, she was shocked and giggled for half an hour, but the elder brother was so calm when he heard it.
"Send someone to Dolan City to inquire about the situation, and buy some necessities below, which will be used soon."
Chu Liang only needs to give a concept, and let Avril do the rest to defend, and more or less is controlled by Avril. The target has already been told to Avril, she must have a sense, Chu Liang wants to turn Dolan City into his base camp under full control!
Avril believes that Arthur will succeed. Who would have thought, who would have thought that when he first met Arthur in the Yelu Moza Library, this person would become the city lord now? !
In the evening, in the meeting room of the Council of Elders.
Eleven people including the Pope, the Grand Consul, the people-friendly officials, the three professional guild leaders, the engravers guild leaders, the adventurers guild leaders, the Nicholas family patriarchs, the Gabriel family patriarchs, and the apostles and imperial capitals were all present. , and these eleven people constitute the highest council of the elders.
The general decision-making is made by these eleven people. To be precise, there are usually ten people. When it comes to special events, plus an apostle. If the meeting cannot reach a consensus, it will be voted by a show of hands and can abstain. If it is still tied, It will be voted on by the Council of Elders.
Everyone already knows the proposal, that is, the city lord reward proposed by the Pope. Since it involves the power of other forces, it must be mentioned here to pass.
The Pope is still lazy. Today, Benedict XV does not seem to have any intention of discussing it, and does not give Lord Sanchez a chance to speak generously.
"It's very simple. The purpose is to give young people a chance. Now let's raise your hands to vote. If you agree, please raise your hands."
Benedict XV said indifferently, with the might of a great victory, the Pope was the first to raise his hand.
The second person to raise his hand was Odona, the president of the Adventurers Guild. Odona had already set up her carriage to support Arthur. Since the beginning of the strongest beast spirit store in the imperial capital, the Adventurers Guild has helped a lot, but everyone I can't even guess why Eudona supports Arthur so much.
