Chapter 347, the thirteenth ratman councillor
In order to have more bargaining chips in his hands, Sheng Qi did not hesitate to bring the Church of the Spirit of Ore to the stage.
Under the strange gazes of the guys in the hall.
Sheng Qi wanted to hold the vacant position in his own hands, which was a very smart choice.
Whether he succeeded or not, when the sneaky guys hiding on the edge of the Rat Empire were revealed to everyone, a fact was set.
They could only rely on Sheng Qi and hold Sheng Qi tightly.
To a certain extent, the guys in the Church of the Spirit of Ore were not enough to be heretics. They also believed in the great gods, and even had a more advanced structure than the general organization composed of rat priests scattered throughout the Rat Empire.
A church without any clear program and temporarily without a leader.
Does the Church of the Spirit of Ore have a clear doctrine, or is it derived from the doctrine that the great gods once revealed, digging more ores and digging the power contained in these ores.
To some extent, they are indeed more advanced.
But how should I put it? Progress is not completely equal to strength.
The general church built by the rat priests is not advanced, but it is strong enough.
These crazy rats are thinking about how to offer more sacrifices to the great gods and pile more lives on the scarlet altar every moment.
Although their ideas seem to have changed recently and they have begun to pursue more blood mushrooms, the specific situation has not changed. After all, blood mushrooms also rely on piling lives on the altar.
In the past, it was for merit, and now it is for blood mushrooms. For these things, these guys do everything they can, monopolizing mineral veins, hoarding young rats, training private guards, funding a large number of rat mercenaries, forming rat caravans, promoting wars, and using all these things to tirelessly pursue what they want, that self-righteous piety.
At the beginning, these guys took the wrong path. Whether they are pious to the gods or not has become a comparison of how much they pile up on the altar.
Until now, they have been running all the way on the wrong path and it is difficult to turn around, and they are unwilling to turn around.
If you discuss with these guys what is true piety, gods and believers, these mysterious topics, they will probably hesitate, but on the other hand, they will label you as a heretic and mobilize a bunch of ratmen to send you to the altar, which also does not take much effort.
And the Church of the Spirit of Ore is stuck on this line.
Progress but damn.
The rat priests present, no matter which faction they are from, have become dangerous in their eyes the moment Sheng Qi's outrageous proposal appears.
But Sheng Qi ignored these guys.
To push the Church of the Spirit of Ore to the stage, the conflict with the rat priests is inevitable and difficult to turn around, so at the beginning he directly put the object of his struggle on other beings on the scene.
The big claw priest who is in charge of many matters in the underground rat city fell silent.
The captain of the temple guards guarding the underground rat city showed the same anger as the rat priests.
Even though he should agree with this matter in theory, after all, the competition between the temple guards and the rat priests is still going on, how to say it, in terms of piety, the temple guards have always been no less than the rat priests, and even more conscious.
The atmosphere on the field is not right.
Even at this time, the lightning cannon engraved with dark blue lines behind Sheng Qi is still emitting light from time to time, which is enough to send all the guys present to the sky. The threat is held in Sheng Qi's hand, but it still cannot prevent the situation from becoming more and more tense and dangerous.
Not all of the people sitting down at this time are not afraid of death, but Sheng Qi wants to suppress them easily with the threat of death, which is not easy to do.
And the Church of the Spirit of Ore, this proposal is on the line. In any case, don't disrespect the gods anymore, this is a great taboo.
Sheng Qi must convince these guys, otherwise his fate will not be good. Unless he is really crazy enough to die with everyone present at this meeting, he must do something.
The Church of the Spirit of Ore just stepped on the line. It can be classified as a heresy or let go.
Not long after, a confused big-clawed priest was pulled onto the platform.
A young big-clawed priest, a freak obsessed with circular rotation.
Sheng Qi once wanted to throw this annoying freak into the sea, but today, he has to admit that even this annoying freak that can make people feel irritated is not so useless. At least, this guy has enough words.
Just gave one sentence.
"I might consider investing in those wheels."
Just like that, with just this sentence, the gear mouse followed Sheng Qi to the underground rat city.
Not long ago, when he learned that Sheng Qi was appointed as the ratman high priest, he had some unrealistic fantasies at that time.
Perhaps Sheng Qi would hand over such a huge and beautiful industrial zone of the underground rat city to him. What a beautiful dream it was. If Sheng Qi did this, he would definitely praise Sheng Qi.
Until he came here and stood in front of the rat councilors, he was still dreaming of this.
There is no way, after all, the place where the fire never goes out is too beautiful.
But unfortunately, dreams are just dreams after all. Gear Mouse doesn't feel very good now. Although he doesn't know what happened here or what he is doing here, he really doesn't feel very good.
At this time, Sheng Qi sat down, sitting in the highest position, and his words fell lightly.
"This is a member of the Mineral Spirit."
With just such a light sentence, Gear Mouse and the Mineral Spirit Church far away in the rolling hills were put on the fire by Sheng Qi.
His throat slid, and he couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
At this moment, the eyes of the twelve ratmen on the field fell on Gear Mouse, and the various, dangerous, and inexplicable expressions of curiosity were different.
Gear Mouse had to admit that he regretted it a little, maybe the wheel was not that important.
Gear Mouse is a smart man. Although he becomes very talkative when talking about wheels, which makes people very irritated, he is a smart man.
Sheng Qi only gave a few words, and he immediately understood what he was going to do, and a passionate introduction began.
He introduced the Church of the Spirit of Ore in a torrent of words.
In his words, the Church of the Spirit of Ore suddenly changed from a sneaky secret group to a pioneer of devout belief in the great god.
He repeatedly emphasized his love and piety for the great god.
They gathered together to practice the revelation left by the great god.
To a certain extent, this is indeed true, but it has been exaggerated and concealed. This is a very normal situation, and of course it must be concealed.
After all, although the Church of the Spirit of Ore was established not long ago, they have done a lot of things.
The slave rats sent by the Jieliu Rat Priest stole ore and dug underground cities privately. Even in the underground city they dug, an illegal divine pillar made entirely of metal was erected.
These things, no matter which one, cannot be said.
There was some confusion in the endless speech. Most of it was praise for the great gods, and a small part was the original intention repeated again and again. They were a group of pious guys who were not afraid of difficulties and resolutely practiced the revelation of the great gods.
They were loyal! Very loyal!
This speech with confusing words played a certain role.
The solemn atmosphere on the field was relieved a lot.
Although the rat priests still responded to the so-called ore spirit with hostility, they no longer had the sharp sense of danger that made anyone who looked at them feel stinging.
It was relieved a lot.
It seemed that Sheng Qi didn't have to die with everyone present.
This proposal naturally entered the voting stage.
Two loyal rat priests, two rat lords, radical rat priests, and the captain of the temple guard guarding the underground rat city, they all voted against it.
The big claw priest who manages many affairs of the underground rat city, the captain of the temple guard stationed in the grassland city, the war priest with scars on his face, the rat warlord, and the fuzzy guy hidden in the shadow, they chose to support.
It is not surprising that the big claw priest would support, after all, the members of the ore spirit are basically big claw priests.
The captain of the temple guard stationed in the grassland city seems to agree with the practice of divine revelation in the mouth of the gear mouse.
The reason why the war priest and the rat warlord chose to support is also simple, purely to make things difficult for the rat priests.
And the fuzzy guy hidden in the shadow, he will support the newly appointed high priest.
Graystone abstained from voting. This stunned guy is not very adaptable to the rhythm at this time, and like the gear mouse standing here, he does not fully understand what is happening here.
It's just that he is still one vote short.
The captain of the temple guard stationed in the underground rat city was not moved by the speech of the gear mouse.
The twelve ratmen councillors voted, with six against and five in favour of the last ratmen councillor seat.
But this situation made Sheng Qi feel relieved.
As a ratmen high priest, Sheng Qi also has the right to vote, and to some extent, his vote is more important and weighty.
But as a very young high priest, it is not easy for him to exercise this right.
White Rat can push forward what he wants to push without voting.
Even if Sheng Qi wants to vote, he can only really cast his vote in this stalemate.
The resolution was passed.
The Gear Spirit Church obtained a seat in the ratmen parliament.
Sheng Qi finally had an extra chip in his hand.
At the end of this meeting, a new proposal was put forward. During the ratmen meeting, weapons were not allowed to be carried and divine arts were not used. This principle was determined and would be ensured by the temple guards.
Of course, no one would be able to push the lightning cannon into the meeting.
