Weird Wizarding World - Chapter 418 Awarding Ceremony

  Two days passed quickly, and the day of awarding the emblem arrived.

   This morning.

  In the center of Neustadt City, the Supreme Council Hall, the central hall on the first floor.

   "Hey, clean the windows here again with Cleanse!"

  Staff wearing witch robes shuttled among them, preparing for the grand emblem awarding ceremony.

  The whole process of the ceremony is actually not lengthy, but very short, usually lasting no more than ten minutes.

   Even so, the wizards present did not dare to be sloppy at all, and every corner of the hall must be arranged to perfection.

  They started cleaning carefully before dawn, and it would take at least three to five hours for the decorations to be fully arranged.

   "Long time no see, Tennyson."

  Upstairs in the hall, some councilors who arrived early were greeting each other.

   "Long time no see, Whitley, I didn't expect that your representative came from Meredith City."

   Every time a new councilor's emblem awarding ceremony, in principle, every wizard city must send at least two representatives to participate, and half of the councilors from the wizard city where the new councilor is located must participate.

   It's just that it's a time of war, and the corresponding requirements according to the regulations have also declined.

  Neustadt City only requires ten councilors to participate, while the rest of the wizarding cities only need to come to one.

  However, this time Colin became a member of the second rank, which should have attracted the attention of many people. Looking around now, although it is still morning, the number of members present has far exceeded 20.

   "No way, 90% of the councilors in Meredith City have gone to the front line of the war. I happened to be in the city, so I came to take a look." Whitley sighed slightly.

   "What's the situation on the front line now?" Tennyson asked.

   "It's not good, and it's not bad. After that night, the attack of the gods slowed down again. It is estimated that there will be a protracted war until the food problem breaks out." Whitley shook his head.

   "Is the farmland in Meredith City seriously damaged?" Tennyson continued to ask.

  The gods not only launched an operation to pollute the farmland against Neustadt that night, but also launched a similar operation against Meredith.

   This news has not yet reached Neustadt, but Tennyson, as a member of Parliament, already knows the news.

   "Seriously." Whitley shook his head, found a seat with Tennyson and sat down.

   "At least 60% of the farmland in Meredith has been polluted, and granaries in many places have also been burned."

   "Fortunately, Meredith has many hills and mountains, and the distance between farmland and farmland is far away. Otherwise, according to the situation at the time, the loss would be even greater."

   "Those traitors are really hateful!" Tennyson said angrily.

   "It's just a bunch of cowards." Whitley expressed contempt, and then suddenly asked curiously: "I heard that the newly promoted member is just a second-level senior wizard?"

   "Yes." Tennyson nodded, "I don't know much about him, but I heard that Congressman Noyce used the once-in-a-century independent election right for him."

   "I heard he is not from the Tate family yet?" Whitley was a little curious.

   "I heard it is, it is a half-blood wizard." Tennyson replied, then hesitated and said: "The Tate family's attitude towards this matter seems to be a bit strange."

  Whitley raised his eyebrows, "You mean that the Tate family has problems with this new congressman?"

"I don't know, but you know that in the past, if there were members of the Tate family who were newly elected members, they would hold some private gatherings in advance to bring the new members to expand their contacts, but this time there was no news at all... until the notice of the awarding ceremony appeared , everyone knows about it.”

  Tennyson paused slightly, glanced behind Whitley and whispered, "The Tate family is here."

   "Is that... Congressman Nickler?" Whitley followed his line of sight and hesitated.

  The members of the Supreme Council are mainly divided into three classes—ordinary members, great members, and six supreme members.

  The necessary condition for becoming a Grand Councilor is that the strength is at least Tier 4, and some outstanding contributions are also required.

   "Yes." Tennyson and Whitley exchanged glances with a smile on his face, stood up and greeted him together.

   "Good morning, Mr. Nickler."

  For the badge awarding ceremony of the new councilors, there must be more than three councilors present. It is still early, and the wizards in the hall downstairs are still setting up the venue, so Nickler is the first councilor to arrive.

  As soon as he arrived, he naturally became the focus of the crowd, and there was an endless stream of greetings.

  Nickler was not arrogant either, and greeted all the wizards kindly.

  Seeing this, Tennyson was about to inquire about some news about the newly promoted member, but he heard a member behind him suddenly congratulate him:

   "Congratulations to the Tate family for adding another member of Parliament!"

  Tennyson and Whitley next to him looked at each other with strange expressions.

   Sure enough, when he looked at Nickler again, the smile on his face had disappeared, and he looked up at the congressman who seemed to be a bit ill-informed.

  The smile on the congressman's face froze, and only then did he realize that he seemed to have said something wrong.

   "The newly elected congressman does not belong to the Tate family."

   Fortunately, Nickler was not really angry, but said lightly after a pause of two seconds.

  After this ordeal, no one brought up the topic again.

   But everyone knows that at least Nickler in front of him is not friendly to the newly promoted congressman.

   And this senior elder of the Tate family, in some respects, even represents the attitude of the Tate family better than Noyce.

  Nickler looked at the wizards with different expressions in front of him, and smiled faintly in his heart.

  He came here ahead of time just to show this attitude.

  Noyce did not consider his opinion at all, but wantonly used the precious once-in-a-century election right, which really made him furious!

  ‘I am Noyce, do I need to ask you to use the election right? ’ Thinking of what Noyce said before, Nickler sneered in his heart.

  He will let Noyce understand that the Tate family is only three hundred years old, and there is no Noyce for three hundred years!

  Time passed quietly, and the congressmen gradually arrived, gathering in the grand and elegant hall.

  Three councilors sat in the soft chairs at the front, Nickle sat in the middle, and the other two councilors, one was from the Istar School and the other was from Meredith City.

  As for Noyce, as the recommender, he is also the host of the emblem awarding ceremony.

   And the rest of the MPs are witnesses.

  The entire emblem awarding ceremony is divided into three parts.

  The first part is about the presiding wizard announcing the situation of the new MPs, mainly about their outstanding contributions to become MPs.

  Then came the second part, the newly promoted member came to the stage to accept the exclusive badge of the member of the Supreme Council.

  The last part is to assign management areas to new MPs.

  It's twelve o'clock at noon.

  Noyce's figure appeared on the high stone platform on time.

   "Good afternoon, everyone." Noyce greeted everyone with a smile, and paused for a while on the three congressmen in the front row.

   "Without further delay, let's start the badge awarding ceremony now."

  Noyce read some words praising the appearance of wizards and the Supreme Council according to the tradition, and then continued:

  "On this beautiful day, I am very happy to announce that the great Supreme Council will welcome a new member—Colin Leonard.

   This wizard was born twenty years ago in Meredith, an ordinary mortal kingdom called Holy Flame. Afterwards, after a rough and legendary experience, he came to Neustadt and made indelible contributions to wizards in the following days, and thus obtained the qualification to become a member of the Supreme Council ! "

   Speaking of this, Noyce paused for a moment, looked around the audience members and continued:

   "I have to tell everyone that you have all heard of his deeds for a long time before."

  The congressmen in the audience were a little surprised, and Whitley even turned to look at Tennyson beside him, his eyes full of inquiry.

   But the latter spread out his hands, indicating that he didn't know, and his face was also puzzled.

   "Hero wizard... This word was once circulated when the elves' betrayal crisis broke out, and many people have heard of it—

A wizard successfully discovered the fact that the elves had betrayed the wizard by virtue of good luck and amazing courage, courage, and strength, and saved the wizard from the tragic end of the entire army in that crucial battle...so people spontaneously called it For the Hero Wizard. "

  Tennyson gradually showed surprise on his face, could it be that...

   "Yes, this heroic wizard is Colin Leonard." Noyce continued, confirming his guess.

The congressmen in the audience were a little surprised when they heard the words. The information about the Hero Wizard was kept secret by Noyce for the crimson mark back then, and it was not widely disseminated afterwards, so most of them did not know about the Hero Wizard. true identity.

   There are even people who always think that the hero wizard is just a fictional character made up by Noyce to confuse the gods.

  Noyce continued with a smile:

   "In addition, I believe everyone has heard about the recent farmland pollution incidents in the Tilaimei Plain and Meredith City.

  But what you may not know is that on that night, the traitors of the gods also planned an attack on the magic energy mine in Neustadt City, and they were about to succeed. "

   "Of course, it was successfully stopped in the end." Noyce smiled, and then said: "As you think, the reason why this attack was able to be eliminated is also thanks to Colin Leonard."

   "His contribution to the wizarding side is unparalleled, and he is well-deserved to become a member of parliament!"

  Noyce's narration ends here.

Snapped.

  Papapa—

  The MPs in the audience applauded.

   After the applause subsided, Noyce smiled and was about to move on to the next item, awarding Colin the emblem.

  But at this moment, a congressman in the back row suddenly spoke up.

   "Lord Noyce."

  The corner of Nickler's mouth in the front row curled into an undetectable arc.

   "What's the matter, Carl, do you have any comments to make?"

  The male congressman stood up and respectfully said to Noyce

  "The contribution of the new member is naturally impeccable, but wizards are respected by strength. To become a real member, apart from contribution, you also need strong strength, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public.

  I heard that Colin Leonard only has the strength of a second-level senior, so I can't help but worry a little about whether this young wizard can serve as a member of his councilor. Therefore, according to the regulations of the Supreme Council, I want to initiate a reasonable duel application to him. "

  Noyce was slightly taken aback, and moved his gaze to Nickler in the front row.

  The latter has a calm face, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, as if wondering why Noyce looked over.

  Noyce looked away.

  The Supreme Council does have such regulations. To become a member does require strength and contribution to meet the standards.

  But generally speaking, this step is checked by the Supreme Councilor.

  The six supreme councilors will fairly and comprehensively consider both strength and contribution to decide whether a wizard can become a councilor.

  Generally speaking, as long as this step is passed, the representative has become a member of the Supreme Council.

  However, during the emblem awarding ceremony, if any member has any doubts about the strength or contribution of the newly promoted member, they can raise it again on the spot.

  Contributions are generally not mentioned, after all, the Supreme Councilor has already reviewed it.

  If there is a doubt, there must be conclusive evidence, and then the Supreme Council will review it again based on new evidence.

  If it is proved that the contribution is fraudulent, then the newly promoted congressman and the wizard he recommended will be severely punished.

   As for strength, it can also be questioned.

  Because the supreme member is a comprehensive consideration of strength and contribution, there are indeed situations where the contribution is high, but the strength is not strong.

In this case, the members present can apply for a friendly duel with the newly promoted members. responsibility.

  Then the newly promoted member will temporarily lose his status as a member, and will not arrange to award the badge again until his strength passes the test.

  In this case, the newly promoted member will not really lose his status as a member, but just suspend it.

  'Also... Colin's contribution is too outstanding, they probably think that Colin is really just an ordinary second-level senior wizard. '

  Noyce looked at Carl who got up and smiled, and asked, "Are you sure?"

  Carl's eyes wandered a little, but he still avoided Noyce's gaze and said in a deep voice: "I'm sure."

   "Okay." Noyce said no more, then patted his forehead suddenly, and said in a tone that seemed to just remember something:

   "But I have to correct a mistake of yours, Carl."

   "Colin Leonard is actually a third-tier wizard."
