Chapter 564

Ren turned to look at Ronnie.

The teacher also cast his gaze, waiting for his answer.

This time, Ren didn't hesitate at all, and replied calmly: "Yes, I want to be the consul of the empire."

Anse Woldas nodded in relief.

However, Ronnie showed some confusion and a little disappointment hidden in his eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "Why?"

Before Renn could reply, he said seriously again: "The position of consul may be a supreme honor that most people dare not expect, but for you, Renn, it is not worthy of your attention. It will distract you."

"We are wizards, not politicians."

"Over the past thousand years, Wezeland has promoted seven or eight consuls, but they have not brought much benefit. This position is just a puppet of the Supreme Council. You shouldn't be a consul, wasting dozens of dollars. years."

"You should focus on the road of pursuing magic, and strive to be promoted to the Holy Soul Wizard as soon as possible."

"Grand Speaker, you should persuade Ren, what Wezelan needs is a second holy soul wizard, not a consul."

It's not that Ronnie didn't see Anse Wodos's attitude, he was still outspoken and dared to advise, and even confronted the leader of the floating city face to face.

Anse Woldas smiled, and did not blame Ronnie.

He knew very well that this was Ronnie's character, and he would never hide his thoughts for fear of offending others. Many times, his views were correct.

"Ronnie, I won't interfere with Ryan's choice." Anse Wodos said slowly: "Just now, I have let him make his own decision."

"The Great Speaker..." Ronnie was a little anxious.

Ren finally said: "Speaker Ronnie, I have heard a story, I hope you can listen to it."

Ronnie couldn't be in the mood to listen to any stories, but Ryan spoke at this time, it should be related to the consul's affairs, so he patiently nodded and said, "You tell me."

Anse Woldas was also interested.

"During the Second Era, Alan Erth was a world ruled by giant dragons and giants. At that time, human beings were only slaves of the two major races, with weak power, and only a very small number of people had extraordinary power." Ren said emotionally: "At that time, there was a mountaineer named George Mallory. He was just an ordinary person without any extraordinary power, but his ideal in life was to climb to the top of the highest mountain in the world, 'Mountain High'."

The two gradually became attracted by Ryan's story.

One can imagine how difficult it is for an ordinary person to climb to the highest mountain, not to mention that in the second era, the highest mountain was the center of the kingdom of giant dragons, and humans would have to take great risks even approaching the foot of the mountain.

Ren continued: "He has been preparing for mountaineering for many years and tried his best. Unfortunately, he failed the first two times. He didn't give up. He will try for the third time a few years later. He did not hesitate to pay the price with his life.”

"Unfortunately this time he disappeared on the highest mountain and never came back, and no one knows whether he succeeded in reaching the summit."

"Before setting off, someone asked him, why do you want to climb the mountain?"

Ren stopped here.

Ronnie has been to the highest mountain, and he is well aware of the harsh environment of the giant peak. Not to mention ordinary people, even legendary extraordinary people go to the mountain with fear. He can't help admiring the courage of the mountaineer in the story, and he is also very curious Mountaineer's answer.

"Why did he climb the mountain?" Ronnie couldn't help asking why.

Wren replied, "Because the mountain is there."

Ronnie was shocked immediately.

Because the mountain is there... This answer is unexpected, but it is reasonable, and it also explains why Ryan wants to be the consul.

Ronnie's expression changed, and he sighed: "I see."

Clap clap!

"Excellent story!"

Anse Wodos applauded and said with a smile: "Ren, you can become a speaker. But I have a question, why have I never heard of this mountaineer named George Mallory before? His answer should not be unknown, where did you read his story?"

"Uh..." Ren was a little embarrassed, the story was true, but it happened in another world.

He said nonsense: "Teacher, I saw this on a fragmented page of an ancient character chronicle a few years ago. I don't know if it is true or not, but it was very impressive so I remembered it."

Anse Wodos laughed twice and didn't ask any more questions.

Ronnie also came to his senses. In all likelihood, this story was made up by Ren himself. There is no mountaineer at all, but the core of the story is very real.

Ren coughed dryly, and said seriously: "The mountaineer conquers not the highest mountain, but himself."

"Life is also like climbing a mountain. Not everyone can climb to the top of the mountain..."

"For us wizards, the process of pursuing the truth of magic is also climbing a mountain. On the way of climbing, we will encounter countless difficulties, dangers and pains. Some people go together, some go alone, and the routes they choose are different. .”

"We might as well stop occasionally to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the side of the road. Even if we fail in the end, this wonderful life is not in vain."

"Speaker Ronnie, what do you think?"

Ryan looked sincere. He was tired of drinking this bowl of chicken soup in his previous life, and he wrote several propositional essays when he was in school, but this was indeed his true opinion.

In his previous life, he only wanted to be a librarian, eat and die in peace.

Those great ideals and grand plans for hegemony can only be imagined occasionally in dreams. In reality, the Taiping Age does not have the time to create heroes. Some things are not there when you are born, and basically you will never have them in your life.

However, after crossing to Allenus, the mutated mobile phone, which is a heaven-defying plug-in, has given him a huge advantage that others can't imagine.

And with that comes inflated ambitions.

It's not accurate to use "ambition" to describe it. Ren didn't actually have much desire for power. He just felt that since he came to this world, he had to live a wonderful life and experience experiences that would never be possible in his previous life. walk around.

Power is a man's best coat, which is radiant and charming after wearing it.

From Ryan's own understanding, the power in the world of Allenus can be understood as "power" and "strength". He has initially possessed power, and now he wants to taste the taste of power.

Perhaps for others, they can only focus on one of them and give up the other. After all, people's energy and time are limited. It is already difficult to pursue strength alone, and there are very few people who reach the top.

But you are different, mutating mobile phones, infinite possibilities!

Whether it's "power" or "strength", Ren doesn't want to give up, I want them all! Moreover, it is necessary to do everything to the extreme!

This is the first time he has spoken out.

Both Anse Woldas and Ronnie were moved, and they understood Ren's thoughts. Ronnie stopped persuading, and Anse Wodos took a deep look at Rennes. The position of consul is obviously not Rennes' "highest mountain", but at most it can only be regarded as a dangerous peak.

So, what is the "highest mountain" that Ryan really wants to conquer?

The answer is self-evident.

Anse Wodos was shocked, his lips moved, and in the end he didn't ask Ren, but the expression between his brows and eyes was a little complicated, as if he was troubled.

Ren noticed the change in the teacher's mood, showed him a sincere smile, and said softly: "Teacher, it's time for us to attend the conferment ceremony of Dean Sabra."

Ronnie checked the time and stood up.

Then he found that Anse Wodoss was still sitting there, as if distracted, and couldn't help being surprised: "The Great Speaker?"

"Oh, it's okay." Anse Wodoss regained his composure, "Let's go."

He didn't go to see Ren again, opened a portal, and took the lead to go in. The Wezelan wizards downstairs, who are not eligible to enter the temple where the ceremony is held, have already gone to the Phoenix Arena to watch the ceremony remotely through the projection screen.

Coming out of the portal is the main entrance of the temple.

This is one of the most magnificent buildings in Blueworth Academy, the Temple of the Goddess of Magic. Go up a hundred steps and look up at the dome supported by hundreds of circular columns. It is magnificent and unforgettable.

Today, the temple has been cleaned over and over again with spells, and huge hanging flags hang from the dome, with countless magic runes and holy emblems of the goddess painted on them, the double-headed eagle flag of the empire, and various branches of Blueworth Academy The emblem of the twelve holy soul wizards, and each flag exudes a vast magical atmosphere.

At the entrance of the temple, two rows of imperial knights stood.

They are all guards belonging to the consul, well-equipped with weapons, and each has the strength of a high-level transcendent.

Above the sky, there are also Griffin Knights from the most elite Griffon Legion hovering.

As the host, the teachers and students of Blue Watts College also organized a wizard group of more than 200 people, divided into multiple teams and scattered around the temple.

Ren and Ronnie followed Anse Woldas and climbed up the steps step by step.

He sensed multiple powerful auras coming from the temple.

Several holy soul wizards have already arrived.

At this moment, this temple may be the most dangerous but also the safest place in the main material world. Twelve holy soul wizards gather together, there are dozens of legendary wizards, and there are also a large number of extraordinary legions. And the incarnation of the goddess that may come later!

When the three wizards walked on the long red carpet, the imperial guards on both sides saluted together and crossed the enchanted spears in their hands, forming a solemn arched passage.

Anse Wo Dao Si walked into the temple without squinting.

The auditorium inside the temple is distributed in a fan shape. There are rows of seats from low to high, and the space is huge. It can seat one or two thousand people, but they have been removed and replaced with wider seats. The total number is less than 300. All facing the same direction, there is a tall statue of the goddess of magic, Vejastri.

At this time, hundreds of people were already seated, the atmosphere was solemn and no one was talking.

As soon as Anxi Wodas appeared, he attracted people's attention. Except for a few holy soul wizards, everyone stood up and saluted him.

Ren glanced at these guests.

Legendary wizards, great nobles, cabinet ministers, provincial governors, legion commanders, imperial councilors, high-level church clergy, rich people, etc., are all big figures in the empire. They can be invited to watch the ceremony in the temple, which in itself is a manifestation of strength and status.

However, in front of Anse Wodos, they did not dare to show the slightest disrespect on their faces, and they did not even dare to look at him with their eyes.

Anse Woldas walked to the front row step by step, with Ren and Ronnie following behind.

When passing through the middle, the guests on both sides bent down to salute one by one, and said respectfully: "I have met Master Anxi."

"Um."

Anse Wo Daosi nodded, and occasionally sent a faint response to several of them. Those people looked flattered, as if they had received a supreme honor.

Ryan has been in Wedzeland for several years and knows something about it.

The reason why the teacher is the Big Three of the empire is that the power under his command is far more than just a floating city, and a large number of upper-level figures of the empire have gathered. Most of them are imperial councilors, occupying about a quarter of the seats in the entire imperial parliament.

The guests who received the teacher's response are all Wezeland's vassal councilors.

If I want to become a consul in the future, I cannot do without the support of these imperial councilors. Whether it is nomination campaign or the ruling after being elected, I must rely on these prominent figures.

Ren secretly remembered their faces.

In the front row, many holy soul wizards are already seated, Master Tim Kenan, Duke of Silver Star, Queen of Storms, Master Oroin, Master Huo Huai, Prophet Medifer, Great Sage Congerald, etc. Anse Woldas came before them, and they rose to welcome them.

"Anxi."

"Grey Eagle."

The two giants greeted each other first, and Anse Wodos said hello to the highly respected great sage and asked, "Has Kelstone arrived yet?"

"I don't know, maybe something has delayed it." The great sage shook his head, his face a bit embarrassed.

Generally speaking, the later the person who arrives, the higher the status.

The Duke of Purple Flame and the Duke of Black Robe ignored worldly affairs and walked alone. It didn't matter if they were late, because they had always been like this.

But the Duke of Redstone was a bit deliberate before he arrived.

The three giants have reached two, but he doesn't show up. It seems that he is the highest-ranking giant. In the past, only Master Ogulev was qualified to do so.

The reason given by the great sage is not convincing.

Anse Woldas snorted, a little unhappy. His character is actually not interested in this kind of thing, but the Duke of Redstone is going too far, playing the secular tricks on the Supreme Council, it really loses his status as a holy soul wizard.

"Hey, what a big air." Master Tim Kenan was also very displeased.

"Sit down first."

Anse Wodos said something lightly, and sat down in the middle of the front row. Ren and Ronnie sat behind him, and the temple auditorium returned to silence.

The guests all heard their conversation, looked at each other in blank dismay, but did not dare to speak out.

Ten minutes later, dense footsteps came from outside.

Ren and everyone looked back, and the Duke of Redstone finally showed up after a long delay.

This new tycoon was full of spirits, followed by a large group of people, all of whom were legendary wizards. They were identified by the badges on their chests. Half of them were from Pallas Floating Void City, and the other half turned out to be legendary wizards from Nether Floating Void City!
