Chapter 468: Lanqi is obviously a neutral character

The Capitol Building, located on the banks of the Helrom Mannen River, is not only the seat of the Protoss Imperial Parliament, but also a symbol of Protoss' politics, history and architectural art.

The building dates back six hundred years and is famous for its monumental size and intricately carved stone walls and clock tower.

The House of Commons, famous for its iconic blue seats and opposing seating arrangement, is one of the most important political decision-making places in Hirrom, while the House of Lords, with its red seats and gorgeous decorations, highlights its tradition and solemnity. It is mainly responsible for deliberating and amending bills. Franklin Hall is a key hub connecting the Upper and Lower Houses and is responsible for large-scale events.

The election of the Cardinals of the Church of the Resurrection, which is about to take place, will select the sole decision-maker of the Church of the Resurrection in the Protos Empire. This bishop will become a true partner of the Protos Empire.

As the clock was about to strike nine in the morning, most of the attendees in the spacious Franklin Hall were already seated and ready to wait for today's voting to begin.

The seats in the top outer circle are roughly divided into three sectors, namely the nobles in the south, the nobles in the north, and the nobles in the east of the empire.

They include life peers appointed by the monarch for life, and the rest are hereditary peers who enter the House of Lords by inheriting their titles.

The inner circle factions at the bottom are more complex. They are elected or nominated through provincial general elections and represent various constituencies in the Protoss Empire. Their main responsibilities are to formulate and pass laws and review decisions.

The distribution of seats in the inner circle is also related to the factions of the nobles.

After the seats were filled, the entire hall turned into a map of the factions of the Protoss Empire.

For those bigwigs active in the imperial capital of Helrom, the focus at this moment is on which side they hold positions or have deeper connections with.

As the governor of the northern snowfield province, Rocky McCarthy is located on the lower right side of the council chamber. For example, Duke Morotian Berenhard is located on the upper left side of the council chamber because the imperial capital is located in the south.

As for the center of the hall, temporary seats were added in the three empty areas, where the high priests of the three branches of the Church of the Resurrection sat respectively.

The seats for the high priests of the Tyrant Branch and the Mourning Branch were all full. For some reason, only five high priests of the Silent Branch were present today. They were also the high priests who were stationed near the imperial capital. None of the main forces from the north came.

The three bishops had all arrived and were standing in the open space in the center of the hall.

On the other side opposite the seats of the nobles and ministers, sat the throne of the emperor of the Protoss Empire, and not far away, sat an elf who looked to be less than 1.5 meters tall.

The emperor of the Protoss Empire, Franklin III, looked very nervous sitting next to the elf, making it difficult to tell which of them had a higher status.

As the holder of the [Original Slate - Light] and the strongest person in Protoss who is respected as the Great Sage of the Empire, Isis exudes a terrifying aura just by sitting there.

But there was no interest in anything on the elf's face. She just sat there, holding her cheek high up, looking down at the group of Protoss Congress members who changed over and over again.

Her meaning was also very clear -

You can pretend she doesn't exist.

But if anyone breaks the rules today, don't blame her for erasing them.

Even though the voting is about to begin today, there is still a lot of noise.

On the lower right side of the meeting hall, which belonged to the northern nobles and parliamentarians, Earl Milford happened to sit next to Rocky McCarthy.

In fact, the specific seats in the fixed area were not particularly fixed. When he came to the imperial capital Helrom before, his daughter Michella kept telling him that Rocky McCarthy was his brother-in-law or something like that, which made him confused. He didn't know how Miss Hyperion, the priestess from the Kingdom of Estelan, met such an extraordinary fiancé.

At first, Earl Milford was convinced that Michela was talking nonsense, but today, with the mentality of giving it a try, he spoke to Rocky McCarthy who was sitting not far away. The other party chatted with him very kindly and friendly for a long time, thanking him for his help to Miriam. In the end, Rocky McCarthy simply sat with him, so that many northern nobles around became full of respect for Earl Milford, because through just a few words, they could judge that Rocky McCarthy had a close relationship with the eldest daughter of the Milford family.

“…”

Hyperion, who had changed her appearance, sat on the seats of the great priests on the left side of the hall, feeling very uncomfortable.

Looking forward from her angle, she could just see Ranch and Earl Milford sitting on the right side of the opposite hall. The two of them were really chatting, and Milford looked like he was discussing a marriage for his daughter, which made her very embarrassed.

In addition, she recalled how the Earl of Milford's family had taken care of her as a priest of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny a month ago, and how she had now become the Archpriest of Tyrant, and she felt like a fallen priest...

As time passed, outside Franklin Hall, the Capitol clock slowly pointed to nine o'clock and rang.

At this moment, the heavy sound of bells echoed in the hall. Every strike was like the echo of history, causing ripples in the calm air of the hall.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

All the discussions gradually died down, and everyone's eyes were focused on the high platform in the center, where the election of the cardinal of the Resurrection Church was about to officially begin.

When the bell rang, the elf slowly stood up in solemn silence.

Although she was petite, her presence was extremely strong, as if she was the center of the hall, and the eyes of all the bigwigs in the empire were focused on her.

"In theory, there will be a presentation and speech session before the official voting begins. The three cardinals of the Church of the Resurrection will have the opportunity to present their ideas and achievements of the past three months in any form. This will be a critical moment for them to prove their value and ability to all the nobles, parliamentarians and other important figures present. That's it."

She began to speak the following content in a lazy tone, her voice without much emotion, and every word was clearly audible in the hall.

Then Isis sat down again and handed the time over to the three cardinals.

The default order is from left to right, starting with the time of the Tyrant branch.

Sigrid did not intend to make a speech herself, as she would only scare the nobles, so she waved to her subordinate Gloria to do it for her.

This kind of thing should be what the Son of God is best at, but today before the parliament started, the Son of God had already made it clear to her that as a figure of the Protoss Empire, he would remain absolutely neutral in the parliament today and would not favor her in the slightest. As for whether they could reach a tacit understanding, it depended on whether the two of them had a mutual understanding.
