Chapter 415 "Seven Star Conference"
Seven Star Conference.
This is a meeting that covers the entire human realm and is known as the highest parliament of mankind.
As the name suggests, this is a meeting that only those who have advanced to the Seven Stars and become the pinnacle of humanity can join.
The initiators of the meeting are the top figures in Tianfeng City, so this meeting is nominally affiliated with Tianfeng City and is at the same level as the top management of Tianfeng City. But in fact, not only the Seven-Star professionals in Tianfeng City will join, but all the Seven-Star professionals in the entire human world will join and become a member of this council.
Therefore, there are only dozens of members in the Seven Star Conference, less than a hundred people, but their status is higher than the senior management of any base city. Only the senior management of base cities in human holy places such as Tianfeng City can be barely compared with them, but they are basically also dispatched by the Seven Star Conference.
The Seven Star Conference is not held often.
Sometimes, it is held less than once a year, or even not once for several years, making it virtually useless.
However, once a great disaster, hazard or hidden danger occurs in the human world, any member of the Seven Star Council can initiate a meeting through the special alchemical device issued by the council when they are promoted to Seven Stars, and summon all the Seven Star professionals in the world. They can allow their own consciousness to enter a special virtual space through the alchemical device, where they can discuss with all the top humans.
The last time the Seven Star Conference was held was actually just a few months ago.
What happened in Longyao City and the situation in the sealed land attracted the attention of the human top leaders.
Therefore, a meeting was initiated by the top of the Wang family in Tianfeng City, and all seven-star professionals in the human field were summoned to discuss the handling of the underground ruins in Longyao City.
Thanks to this, the problem of Longyao City was solved, and the top leaders of each major base city were responsible for sending support to Longyao City to prevent the invasion of "evil" from coming again.
Now, only a few months later, someone has initiated the Seven Star Conference.
The initiator is still the top of the Wang family in Tianfeng City.
There is only one reason to initiate a meeting.
"Longyao City has fallen."
No one is unaware of what this means.
Therefore, within less than a minute after the meeting was initiated and the alchemical device responded, all the seven-star professionals in the world responded to the device and projected their consciousness into a virtual space that was like a vast and grand conference room.
Mr. Qin is here.
Mr. Ling is here too.
Especially Old Ling, as the patron saint of Tianfeng City and the ultimate weapon of mankind, he is the chairman of the Seven Star Conference and also has a veto power. Once any resolution is approved by the majority of members and has been passed, he can also use his veto power to reject the resolution.
Holding such power, such prestige, and such status, it is natural that Mr. Ling could not fail to be present when such a big thing happened.
He sat in the first seat, and as the Speaker, he looked around at all the top human beings present.
However, he did not speak out at the first moment.
The top human beings present surrounded a person in a corner and began to question him continuously.
"What's going on? Wang Yi!"
"Why did Longyao City fall so suddenly?"
"Didn't your Wang family send an old man over there to take charge?"
"The seven-star professionals from Yinze Base City also went there to take charge, and two seven-star hunters were stationed there. How could it fall before we got the news?"
"Wang Yi, you'd better give us an explanation. This is a serious matter!"
Some were panicked, some were surprised, and some even started blaming others, making the entire meeting noisy.
"Okay, stop arguing."
Old Qin seemed to dislike this kind of noise. He frowned and shouted, causing everyone present to gradually quiet down.
As members of the Seven Star Conference, except for the patron saint who is the speaker, the status of the others is actually equal and no one can order anyone around.
But this is a world where supernatural powers do exist, and everyone knows that the strong are respected.
In such a situation, those with stronger power will naturally have more say and deterrence.
The same is true for the Seven-Star Conference. When a Seven-Star professional from the first echelon meets a Seven-Star professional from the second echelon, their tone and momentum will ultimately be much weaker.
Old Qin is also the best among the second level and the first person under the Guardian God. Once he speaks, everyone except Old Ling has to give him face.
In addition, Mr. Qin is an experienced figure, the oldest in the entire Seven Star Conference, and he still has great authority.
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Old Qin turned to the person in the corner.
"Wang Yi, please explain what happened?"
The person that Old Qin and everyone present were questioning was a man who was about sixty years old.
His hair was half white, and he looked like he was just over fifty years old. Compared to his actual age, he looked quite young.
However, this person's face did not look good, and his eyes were full of gloom. After Old Qin spoke, he immediately spoke with a hint of helplessness.
"About half an hour ago, I received a call from the Wang family's garrison troops stationed in Longyao City."
Wang Yi, the strongest and most senior person in the Wang family, sighed under the gaze of everyone.
"The largest mercenary organization in the underground world, the underground professionals of the giant force 'Sin', collectively attacked Longyao City."
"Including the leader, deputy leader, and all the senior professionals who are cadres, the entire "evil" seems to have been dispatched."
"Under their attack, two seven-star professionals, including a top figure of my Wang family, were all seriously injured and their lives are unknown. The rest of the people suffered heavy casualties."
"Longyao City fell without a doubt under such an offensive."
Many people found Wang Yi’s simple explanation unacceptable.
"What do you mean by a fall without any suspense?"
"How could it be so easy to fall?"
"Even if Li Feng and Li Wu attacked together, there are two seven-star professionals stationed in Longyao City, plus so many supporters. How could a mere 'Sin' be conquered so easily?"
"Has anyone deserted his post? Could it be the one from the Wang family? If so, arrest him and put him on trial!"
A group of top figures started shouting, making Wang Yi's face more and more ugly.
After a while, Wang Yi couldn't stand it anymore, and he slammed the table and shouted angrily.
"I've said it before! With the 'evil' Li Feng and Li Wu here, relying on only one top person from my Wang family and one top person from Yinze City to guard the place, we won't get much good out of facing those two. We should send another seven-star professional to guard the place!"
"Li Feng is a second-tier character, and Li Wu also has the eleventh-ranked Fury in his hand. Their strength is also among the best in the first tier. How can two ordinary-level seven-star professionals in the first tier threaten them?"
"But each of you only wants to stay in charge of your own family and your own power. You are afraid that once your people leave, your family power will be taken advantage of by others and cause losses to yourselves. In the last Seven Star Conference, you kept refusing the missions to be sent abroad!"
"Longyao City has fallen, it has really been conquered by 'evil', and you actually want my Wang family to take the blame, do you think I'm easy to bully!?"
Driven by anger, Wang Yi vented all the anxiety accumulated in his heart.
If this was not a virtual space and not the real world, Wang Yi would have probably erupted like a volcano due to his uncontrollable anger and overturned the conference room.
Naturally, everyone present felt somewhat guilty after hearing Wang Yi's angry rebuke.
They did have some concerns and did not dare to garrison in Longyao City.
Some of them are the only seven-star professionals in their families, and some are even the only top players in the entire base city. If they leave and go to guard Longyao City, what will happen to their own foundation? Even for those families and forces with multiple seven-star professionals, sending one of their seven-star professionals out will greatly affect their strength.
If something goes wrong, it will be your family and your own interests that will suffer.
As this is the case, naturally, few people would be willing to take on this job.
In the end, the Wang family performed their duties conscientiously and to the end. Considering the extraordinary relationship between Longyao City and their family, they sent one of their top people over.
In addition, the seven-star professional in Yinze City had to take action based on the alliance between the four major coastal base cities, and the matter was finally settled.
Now that something has happened, they can't help but feel guilty when facing Wang Yi's accountability.
Of course, some people have said so.
"Even if the Li brothers are generally stronger than the defenders of Longyao City, with the support sent by our major base cities, Longyao City should not fall so easily even if it is not impregnable. With the help of various means set up by the major base cities, they can even fight back against the "evil" people. How could it fall so quickly that we don't have time to react?"
Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.
This is indeed true.
With the support of major base cities, even if there is some lack of combat power, there is definitely no shortage of financial resources.
With both resource and technical support, a few months would be enough to turn Longyao City into a military base.
By then, let alone anything else, just by setting up an alchemical barrier and gathering a group of sorcerers to build defensive spells and form a barrier, it would be extremely difficult for "evil" to attack Longyao City.
Even if a seven-star professional takes action, they will not be able to attack Longyao City in a short time.
It is precisely because of this consideration that the top human beings present can feel at ease and not take on this difficult task.
Who knows , "Those methods can stop a seven-star professional, can they also stop a divine weapon?"
Wang Yi's cold questioning left everyone speechless.
Old Qin also sighed.
"We should have taken precautions earlier."
Elder Qin's words caused everyone to fall silent.
In "Sin", someone holds a divine weapon and is able to use it. This is information that has been confirmed in the Midnight Labyrinth incident.
Although that happened less than half a month ago, considering the threat posed by those who possess divine weapons in "Sin", they should have responded in time.
As a result, they failed to make timely arrangements, which eventually led to the fall of Longyao City.
Everyone present is responsible for this matter.
The same is true for Elder Ling and Elder Qin.
But they had no choice. The matter of Su Ming and An Zijin had really taken away a lot of their attention and energy recently, so that they were unable to consider how to deal with the problem in time.
This made the two of them feel a little guilty.
In the end, it was Elder Ling who spoke.
"This is a serious matter. We can't just sit back and watch." Elder Ling said calmly, "The Li brothers' goal is very clear. They want to break the seal under Longyao City and release the former "king."
"Now, they have captured Longyao City, and the situation is imminent."
"Once the 'king' is truly unleashed, the earth will once again become hell."
“This must be stopped from happening.”
As he spoke, Elder Ling once again looked around at everyone present.
"As the chairman of the Seven Star Council and the guardian god, I formally order you all."
"In all the major base cities, except for one seven-star professional who stayed behind to take charge, all other seven-star professionals will rush to Longyao City."
"This time, I will also go out in person. Lao Qin will be left alone in Tianfeng City to take charge, and the rest of us will all board the Ark and set off with the large force."
"If you have any questions, you can raise them now."
That being said, everyone present could clearly feel that this matter was beyond doubt.
This is a serious matter. When faced with an issue concerning the life and death of all mankind, if there are still people who want to make small calculations based on their own selfishness, then Old Ling, the guardian angel, will definitely tell them personally what it feels like to fall off the altar.
At that moment, everyone spoke up one after another.
"No objection."
"No objection."
"agree."
“Second.”
Only Old Qin frowned and seemed reluctant to stay in Tianfeng City.
The reason is simple.
"Have Su Xiaoyou and Xiao Zijin already known about the events in Longyao City?"
Old Qin looked at Old Ling and asked some questions that others did not understand.
Only Elder Ling knew what Elder Qin was referring to.
"Among the people stationed in Longyao City is the Wang family, and even one of the top members of the Wang family is there. Now that they are in trouble, many people in the Wang family must have received the news. The little girl from the Xu family, who is from Longyao City like Su, must have also known about it."
Mr. Ling's words made Wang Yi, who was standing beside him, think deeply.
Obviously, as the apex of the Wang family, he had guessed something.
However, Mr. Ling did not explain to him.
"Given that kid's temper, there's no way he would pretend he didn't see this."
Elder Ling pondered for a while, then said something to Elder Qin.
"Leave him to me. You take care of the affairs of Tianfeng City first."
Hearing this, Old Qin wanted to say something, but found that he had no position to continue expressing his opinion, so he could only nod.
“Let’s get started.”
At this command from Elder Ling, the top figures in the entire conference began to take massive action.
