Start with the Readers Chapter 455: Office
Intis, Trier.
Due to the abyss falling a few months ago—of course, it was declared to be a "big earthquake" that caused the Arc de Triomphe to collapse, and the Prime Minister's Palace and the House of Representatives were also turned into ruins, so the political center of Intis moved back temporarily White Maple Palace.
With the change of the political center, there is also the political system. Intis has suspended the republic system that has been implemented for more than a hundred years, and has changed back to the "consul" governance model in Roselle's early days.
The first Grand Consul has also been elected, but unexpectedly, it is not a member of the Sauron family, but the former speaker of the National Assembly John Fules.
The archbishop of the "Eternal Sun" church, Drew Fules, came from this family. At the beginning, "" Owen blamed the "confidential secretary" Johnson Fury for killing Fanny's grandfather, Mr. Surrey. Behind Si, it was the archbishop who took the risk of bringing Johansen back to Intis.
But in the end, Johansen died at the hands of Abner and Fanny, and by the way, he used his death to provoke the relationship between the Fules and the Delion family.
It is precisely because Fules played a great role in overthrowing the Delion family, so when choosing the Grand Consul, the "Eternal Blazing Sun" Church will fully support John Fules to take over.
The "Church of Steam" also didn't want to see Sauron take over after its candidate withdrew from the competition, so they also turned to support Fules.
People from the two churches originally thought that suppressing Sauron in this way would be greatly retaliated by the former angel family, but they did not expect them to accept the result calmly.
At this time, in front of the main entrance of the White Maple Palace, Fan Ni, who was already the deputy speaker, walked out unhurriedly surrounded by several members of parliament.
She is wearing a black lady's formal suit, with a white shirt inside, a plain skirt of the same color as the formal dress, and her legs are covered with elastic and transparent...
This outfit highlights Fanny's good figure to the fullest, and it also gives her a bit of a "strong woman" temperament.
Speaking of which, this type of makeup became popular after a series of urban films previously produced by "Brian Film and Television Company", and it quickly gained the favor of female congressmen and government employees.
However, the women's formal wear is relatively easy to imitate, but because no oil has been discovered, there is no corresponding cheap chemical product, so it can only be woven from silk...
But silk generally lacks elasticity, and the visual effect is not as good as shown in the video.
In fact, the ones in the film are made of plant materials cultivated by Abner using the ability of "Druids". Also expensive, is a real high-end luxury.
For now, customizing such high-end products is already one of the most profitable projects in the peripheral industries of "film and television companies".
——After all, it will always be torn, and it belongs to "consumables"...
Seeing Fanny walking out, the guards on duty outside the White Maple Palace stood at attention, saluting the "Saint of Toulon" from the bottom of their hearts.
Fanny returned the salute with a smile, and then came to the place where the vehicles were parked, and boarded her own carriage.
When the carriage started to drive towards her garden villa, Fanny wanted to have a few drinks in the carriage and look at the accumulated documents.
But at this time, her spirituality was suddenly touched, and Fanny immediately raised her head to look at the seat opposite, at the same time, she stretched her fingers into her pocket and touched a mane.
But soon, she stopped, with a happy smile on her face.
Because one of the two figures that suddenly appeared on the opposite seat was someone she was very familiar with.
"Abner!" Fanny called out briskly, then turned her gaze to another girl who appeared suddenly, and greeted with a smile, "It's been a long time, Miss Moretti."
After Mr. Surrey was killed, she lived in Abner's house for a period of time, and Melissa also moved to Kingston Street during that time, so the two met, although not very Familiar, but also know.
"Long time no see, Miss Surrey." Melissa saluted back, but her eyes were a little confused.
Before she agreed to Abner's invitation, she wanted to get a chance to digest the "archaeologist" quickly, so she "teleported" here with Abner.
However, in her expectation, she should be taken to a certain ancient tomb or ruins, but she never thought that she would come to a metropolis like Trier and meet the long-lost Miss Fanny.
Abner didn't care about Melissa's doubts, and started chatting with Fanny directly. After the two chatted about the recent situation, they talked about the current situation.
"What does Intis think about the war between Loen and Fusac, Fenepot and Lemburg?
"Is the peace faction or the war faction prevailing in the parliament now?" Abner asked.
Fanny shook her head and said with a "huh": "Where are there any peace factions...the parliament is full of warmongers!
"The focus of their conflict is only to help the three kingdoms of Lunburg to resist Fenepot, or to besiege Loen with Fusac.
"And for now, the latter has the upper hand."
"That's it..." Abner nodded thoughtfully, and said after consideration, "Then you should be the only peace faction in the parliament... Well, you must persevere and carry out your beliefs.
"Fortunately, you have the reputation of 'Saint of Toulon'. As a 'Saint', it is natural to oppose the war. They will most likely ignore you and will not attack you."
After the experience in the parliament, Fanny is no longer the little girl who knew nothing about politics. After a little thought, she heard a deeper meaning from Abner's words:
"Do you think that after Intis joins the war, not only will he not get any benefits, but he will also suffer?
"So, I have always insisted on 'peace, will I benefit in the end?"
"You really have grown a lot!" Abner sighed, but did not directly respond to her guess.
"I'm already a Baron of Corruption." Fanny said quite proudly.
The corrupt baron seems to abide by the rules, but actually distorts them, constantly absorbing the power of order to serve him... In a sense, this is really a portrayal of a member of parliament.
Melisa on the side was confused about the conversation between the two of them, but there was only one thing she understood, that is, Intis might join the war in the near future!
Thinking of the classmates and friends who were killed and injured by the airship bomb at school, Melissa pursed her lips and asked in a low voice:
"Why do you have to start a war... Isn't peace bad?"
Abner sighed after hearing the words: "Peace is of course good, but war is inevitable...with our strength, we cannot stop it."
After all, the war itself is promoted by the gods.
Afterwards, the carriage was silent for a while, before Abner and Fanny exchanged knowledge about mysticism again, and the atmosphere eased up until the carriage stopped at the gate of Fanny's garden villa.
As soon as the three got out of the carriage, they saw a dark green garden, with branches and vines, densely covered with flowers, layered upon layer... It felt like returning to the midsummer season.
"The flowers and plants here are growing very well!" Abner said with a smile after looking around.
"Isn't this all the negative effect of the 'life cane'? I have to trim the garden every day, otherwise the 'mechanical heart, I'm afraid it will come to the door.
"Also, did you know... In this block, four or five families' wives and maids are pregnant within a month...
"And this is because of the effect of Leon's sealing on that item." Fanny said in a complaining tone.
Hearing this, Abner touched his chin, raised the corner of his mouth and said: "This shows that the guy in Leon is not good enough!"
Speaking of which, he changed the subject and continued, "Don't worry, one of the purposes of my visit this time is to give you another item for self-defense."
"Isn't it for those antiques from different ages?" Fanny glanced at Melissa who was following behind.
"There are also reasons for this." Abner admitted frankly.
Several people entered the villa while talking, and then, led by Fanny, passed through a mirror
The mirror of the son came to a "hidden space".
——This is obviously made by "Lion" Leon.
"The antiques collected by the family and the antiques I bought myself are all here, but there must be some fakes among them. After all, I am not a professional 'appraiser,...'" Fanny pointed to the rows of shelves. of various utensils.
"This is already very good, far exceeding my expectations... Thank you for your hard work." Abner said after looking at it casually.
"Then how can you thank me?" Fanny asked him with a sideways look.
Abner did not answer ~IndoMTL.com~ but turned to Melissa and said: "Most of the antiques here have 'historical imprints', or 'civilization imprints,'."
"I lent you an item, as an 'archaeologist, you should be able to use that item to peel off the branding.
"Oh, the essence of playing the role of 'archaeologist' is actually the process of using archaeological behavior to contact objects with a certain history, contact and feel the 'historical imprint' on them, and obtain corresponding information.
"The peeling off of the 'historical brand' itself contains the steps of touching and feeling it, which is beneficial to your performance."
Speaking, Abner took out a pair of tweezers that seemed to be condensed by stars, handed it to Melissa, and said with a smile: "Can you complete this task?"
This "tweezers" was made by Abner using parts from the "Mechanical Emperor" to help him strip off the "historical imprint" of items from different eras, which is also the potion aid for his promotion to "Instructor of Knowledge" one of the materials.
But this work is relatively cumbersome, so Abner subcontracted it to Melissa, and helped her act by the way, which can kill two birds with one stone.
Thinking of the dead classmates at school, and the reality that without the rescue of Miss Sharron and Klein, she and Benson might also die in the air raid, Melissa also had a desire for strength, so she nodded firmly: " Please give this task to me!"
Seeing that Melissa quickly entered the working state and gradually became proficient, Abner looked away, smiled and said to Fanny:
"Let's go, let's exchange the 'Life Cane' first, and then go to get your 'reward,'."
