Chapter 402 The New Leader of the Michael Knights Is——
Paper and pens were distributed to each participant at this time.
Iser looked at the blank paper in his hand expressionlessly, unable to tell what he was thinking from his expression.
"Iselle..." Albert on the side whispered, "Who do you choose..."
"...Young people." Iser sighed, then smiled, "That's right, you can't look down on others just because they are young... Young people are no worse than us old people..."
"Thousands of years ago, there were quite a few people who despised the 'Knight King' because he was young and then suffered the consequences..."
"The young 'King of Knights' has also achieved great achievements that no one can surpass to this day..."
Speaking of this, Iser took a deep breath, and then the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, showing a faint smile: "Mr. Jacob is so powerful. At the last moment, he actually caught most of the people who opposed Su Cheng. I know that most of the people who oppose Su Cheng simply think that Su Cheng is too young... The story Jacob told about the 'Knight King' at the last minute successfully shook many people's minds. ah……"
"At the very least - shaken mine."
After that, Iser picked up his pen, respectfully wrote the name "Su Cheng" on the paper, and then folded the paper.
"It seems... Iser, you have made your decision."
"Ah, for a long time, the leaders of the three major knights have been basically a bunch of old men or old women." An intriguing smile appeared on Iser's face, "I think it's time to change history."
"Change history..." A strange and intriguing smile also appeared on Albert's face, "What a coincidence, Isel, you and I thought of it together... Who said that young people can't A stand-alone person?"
After that, Albert also picked up the pen and wrote the name "Su Cheng" on his paper.
…
"Jacob." Gozevin, who was sitting next to Jacob, suddenly whispered to Jacob next to him.
"Gosevin, what's going on?" Jacob, who was already a good friend with Gozevin before he came to the throne, always called Gozevin by his first name in private.
After handing out paper and pen, Jacob immediately picked up the pen and wrote Su Cheng's name, then folded his arms and silently waited for everyone else to finish writing.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
The piece of paper written by Ge Zewen was still blank.
And Ge Zewen didn't seem to be in a hurry to write immediately.
"It's really yours, Jacob." Ge Zewen said intriguingly, "You must have been thinking about it last night, right? Thinking about how to win over a few more people to support Su Cheng's rise to power."
"I have to say that your speech just now was very successful."
"You accurately captured the psychology of the vast majority of people who oppose Su Cheng."
"The vast majority of people who oppose Su Cheng, the reason they oppose Su Cheng is because Su Cheng is too young. They think that Su Cheng, who is too young, cannot stand alone."
"So before the voting officially started just now, you told them the story of 'The King of Knights' - don't bully others when they are young, young people can also stand on their own."
"Jacob, it's really wonderful that you used the example of 'Knight King' to support Su Cheng. There is nothing better than 'Knight King' to use as an example to support Su Cheng."
"I have to say that your speech just now was very successful.
When you spoke just now, I noticed that many people who originally opposed Su Cheng began to show signs of wavering on their faces. "
"It's really yours, Jacob. The final candidate for the leader of the Michael Knights may change because of what you just said."
"Haha..." Jacob chuckled a few times, "Thanks for the compliment, Gozevin."
Speaking of this, Jacob looked at Gozevin's blank paper that was still on the table, and then said to Gozevin:
"Gozevin, why don't you write? Speaking of which, yesterday we were discussing who to choose as the leader of the Michael Knights, but you never expressed your opinion. Gozevin, are you going to choose? Who will be the leader of the Knights of Michael?”
Although Jacob's words are in the form of a question, they do not have the tone that a question should have.
It seemed as if Jacob already knew the answer to this question.
After listening to Jacob's questions, the intriguing look on Gozevin's face became more intense.
"Jacob, everyone knows that you are Su Cheng's supporter and that you have always supported and cared for Su Cheng."
"But these people have ignored one thing."
"Jacob, you recommended Su Cheng to counter the rebellion, to participate in the rescue battle of the Lunde Kingdom, and to participate in the 'Xia Feng' offensive. If these things did not have my approval as the emperor, how could you recommend Su Cheng, Jacob?" What’s the use?”
"So, Jacob, didn't you ask the question just now knowingly?"
"I, Ge Zewen, have been supporting Su Cheng since before he became a knight."
After saying that, Ge Zewen straightened up his body that was leaning on the back of the chair, picked up the pen and wrote Su Cheng's name on the paper.
…
Regarding who should be chosen as the new leader of the Michael Knights, everyone in the venue has already written down their favorite candidates on their own papers.
Of course, there are some people who have yet to write.
For example-Northern Governor Humphrey.
For Humphrey, the significance of electing a new Master of the Knights of Michael is very special.
He is not only choosing the new leader of the Michael Knights and the general person in charge of the Northern Front, he is also choosing the companions who will work with him in the future.
Humphrey looked at the still blank paper, expressionless and thoughtful.
At this moment, the person sitting next to Humphrey accidentally knocked over his tea cup, and the warm black tea spilled out and onto Humphrey's paper.
Fortunately, the spilled black tea only wetted a corner of Humphrey's paper.
"Ah, sorry, sorry." The person sitting next to Humphrey quickly apologized to Humphrey.
"It's okay, no need to apologize."
Humphrey gently wiped the wet corner of the paper with his sleeve.
Although he had successfully sucked out the moisture from the wet corner of the paper with his sleeve, this corner was still wrinkled because it had been wet with water.
Humphrey looked at the still blank paper, expressionless and thoughtful.
Humphrey suddenly remembered the words he heard from Jacob at noon yesterday: I will fulfill my duty! Until death!
Although Humphrey had never met Su Cheng or heard Su Cheng's voice, Humphrey felt like he heard a young man saying these words in a sonorous and powerful tone.
Then, what he just said came to Humphrey's mind again.
"'King of Knights'..." Humphrey murmured in a voice that only he could hear.
"Can that Su Cheng be like the 'King of Knights'...?" Humphrey's tone seemed to be asking someone else, but also seemed to be asking himself...
Humphrey looked at the still blank paper, expressionless and thoughtful.
However, at this time, the confusion on Humphrey's face gradually dissipated.
Humphrey, whose face no longer looked confused and hesitant, picked up his pen...
…
"Your Majesty, a total of 61 pieces of paper have been recycled." The person responsible for recycling the paper and making the final communiqué was Bancro.
Everyone's paper was now recycled into a wooden box.
"Well," Ge Zewen nodded slightly, "Let's start announcing it."
"yes!"
After saying that, Bancro reached into the wooden box, pulled out a piece of paper, and then unfolded the folded paper: "Hal Brown!"
As soon as Bancro's words finished, a middle-aged man standing behind Bancro was counting on the big wooden board that had been prepared.
The middle-aged man in charge of counting was Gozevin's valet, Hank.
The wooden board responsible for counting is so large that everyone in the conference room can clearly see the current counting situation.
After Hank finished counting on the wooden board, Bancro took out another piece of paper from the wooden box: "Su Cheng!"
"Hal!"
"Hal!"
"Hal!"
"Hall!"
"Su Cheng!"
"Su Cheng!"
"Hall!"
…
Bancro kept calling the names on each piece of paper, and Hank kept counting on the big wooden board.
61 votes were not too many, and soon, Bancro read out only the last one.
The voting result at this time was that Su Cheng and Hal had an equal number of votes, both at 25 votes. And Hall had 10 votes.
Looking at the voting results shown on the wooden board, Jacob couldn't help but feel anxious. starter
Now – there’s only one ticket left.
Su Cheng and Hal had the same number of votes.
In other words - who will be the leader of the Michael Knights depends on the name written on the next piece of paper!
Jacob couldn't help but become nervous.
No, it should be said that everyone in the conference room became nervous.
Everyone focused their attention on Bancro.
They converged on Bancroft's hand that had reached into the wooden box to get the last piece of paper.
Soon, Bancro grabbed the last piece of paper and stretched it out from the wooden box.
Looking at the last piece of paper in Bancro's hand, many people, including Jacob, Iser, Albert and others, swallowed their saliva.
Everyone was extremely nervous at this time.
Whose name is written on this last piece of paper can be said to be related to the Michael Knights... No, it is not only related to the future of the Michael Knights, but also the future and relationship of the Northern Front of the Empire. The future of the Britannia Empire!
Bancro slowly unfolded the last piece of paper.
The last piece of paper in Bancro's hand was somewhat different from the previous paper.
The corner of this last piece of paper showed signs of being wrinkled by water.
After unfolding the paper, Bancro's eyes quickly scanned the paper. Perhaps because it was the last piece of paper, Bancro also spoke more.
Bancro opened his mouth and said loudly:
"The name on the last piece of paper is-"
