"Everyone, please vote."
Pompey sat back in his seat, with a smile on his face that showed he had a winning chance.
"According to the rules of the school board, Angers and I will not participate in the vote. The person who is not present will be counted as abstaining." Pompeo threw the black card in his hand on the table, indicating that he gave up his right to vote.
The school directors looked at each other, but no one made a decision.
Pompeii smiled: "Is there anything to hesitate at this time? I should have already explained all the interests clearly."
"It is indeed very clear," the monk nodded, "but the impact of losing Angers is too great. He is the only one within the secret party who can fight against the Dragon King... Pompeii, you can also speak Chinese. , you should know the allusion that "Qin lost its deer and the whole world chased it away. Anger is the deer. Before there are new deer, it is not advisable to kill the deer rashly."
"And there's one more thing..."
The monk's cloudy eyes fell on Pompeii.
"You said that you have a way to completely control Chu Zihang. Regardless of whether this method is true or false, the question is how can you guarantee that after holding this power, you will not become the second Angers?"
"Who can guarantee that the Gattuso family is not the Secret Party's business rivals?"
So this is the problem?
Pompeo understood that his plan to replace Angers in this meeting would most likely not be realized, so he settled for the next best thing: "Well, now that Angers is in the Vatican, he won't be able to leave in a short time. I will temporarily act as the principal. During this period, I will prove to you that I do have a way to control Chu Zihang. In this way, the "deer" problem will be solved. As for the Gattuso family's position... …I really can’t guarantee this, but you should also know that I am a businessman and I understand how to maximize profits, so I will not be an enemy of you if it is not necessary. "
If it's not necessary...ah.
This sentence does not sound very convincing, but within the secret party, this realistic statement is more worthy of belief.
So everyone started voting.
The result of the voting was that, except for Pompei and Angers who did not participate in the vote, as well as the school director who was not present and was deemed to have abstained from voting, the rest all approved Pompei's proposal, even those who had been standing in the Angers camp. Laurent and Beowulf, who had little dealings with Pompeii, did not object.
The issue of "Pompei serving as acting principal during Angers' absence from school" was unanimously approved. As for how long Angers' absence from school will last...the space-based satellite above the Vatican should know.
"Okay, then..."
Pompeo was just about to issue his first order as the acting principal, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by the loud ringing of a bell, followed by a sudden alarm.
"Warning! Warning! Large-scale elemental turbulence has been detected in the Arctic! Warning! Warning! It has been detected..."
Someone knocked on the door of the conference room, and without waiting for the several school directors to respond, they pushed the door open and walked in - it was Professor Manstein who was carrying a hard-boiled egg. He rushed in in a hurry: "In Dragon King-level elemental turbulence has been detected in the Arctic Circle!"
"Convene a combat meeting immediately." Pompeo quickly took over the position of principal and ordered. "
Fifteen minutes later, the execution department, central control room.
Pompeii pushed open the door and entered.
Although there were many school directors present at the time, the school directors themselves did not interfere in Kassel's internal affairs, so the only one who rushed here was Pompeo, who had just assumed the role of "acting principal".
As for his taking over as acting principal, the moment it was approved by the school board of directors, Norma had already informed all the professors and staff who should be aware of it. Currently, the only people in the college who don't know about it are the students. .
Pompeii walked into the central control room and found a few familiar guys standing here.
"Leonardo?" Pompeii smiled, "Why are you here if you don't stay in your bell tower?"
Leonardo, full name Nicholas Leonardo Flamel.
Yes, it was the greasy old cowboy, the night watchman of Cassel, but few people would call him by his middle name, and he stopped using that name long ago, so everyone would just call him Nicholas F. Rummel.
That is to say, Pompeo would still call him Leonardo - but this does not mean that the relationship between the two is very special. It is just that Pompeo thought that this would be more unique and call him different from others.
"I guessed that you would come here, so I came here to congratulate you on your promotion," the night watchman smiled. "The acting principal suddenly jumped over my head. Those who didn't know thought that Angers died in the Vatican. It’s over."
"How is that possible? Angers is the strongest hybrid in the world. Small scenes like the Vatican can't trouble him." Pompeo smiled gently, "But as a principal, it's not good to be away from school for a long time. There are many things backlogged. It needs to be sorted out, so I just came to help him with some work."
He said this as if he was a diligent and capable guy, but in fact, even the Gattuso family's work was solved by Frost. Pompeo himself was at best a person who continued the family's future generations. ’s mascot—at least that’s what it looks like from the outside.
The night watchman opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Schneider in a wheelchair: "Gentlemen, perhaps I should remind you that now is not the time for bickering."
His voice was hoarse and cold, and there was an aura of silence as soon as he opened his mouth. The Night Watchman and Pompeii were also affected by this atmosphere and stopped talking.

Schneider pressed the button on the console, and a huge projection of the earth popped up.
That is the earth as seen by the eye of the sky. Day after year, year after year, the Executive Department uses this projection to monitor dragon activities around the world.
Whenever a certain point lights up with a red light, Eva will project herself, explain the situation, give a solution, and then the execution department specialists will dispatch.
But this time Eva didn't give any strategies.
The projected girl also watched the huge projection of the earth in silence together with everyone - the entire Arctic Ocean was flashing with a frightening red light.
"What is this?" Pompeii asked with a frown.
The warning area is the entire Arctic Ocean. Could it be that the ice sea covering an area of tens of millions of square kilometers is occupied by the Dragon King?
"It's not that bad, it's just that the elemental turbulence caused a powerful electromagnetic storm, which obscured the satellite and made it impossible for us to determine the specific location of the source, so the entire Arctic Ocean was marked red." Schneider said hoarsely.
"Then how did the elemental turbulence be detected?" The night watchman asked, "Logically speaking, the monitoring of elemental turbulence is also done by satellites. Even the satellites are covered, so how did they detect the elemental turbulence?"
"Because the unit of elemental turbulence this time is too large." Schneider clicked twice on the map, and a circle almost coincident with the Arctic Circle emerged. "Although the source position cannot be found, the satellite is located near the Arctic Circle. Turbulence has been detected within the Arctic Circle, so it is inferred that the other party is within the Arctic Circle."
"What a direct reason." The night watchman complained.
Pompeii glanced at the map: "Such a large-scale elemental turbulence, it seems that the Dragon King... didn't have any impact, right?"
"Fortunately." Schneider shook his head. "Blizzards, strong winds, rainfall, aurora, and earthquakes all happened, but there are no people in the Arctic Circle, so the impact is not big... But that's not the point."
Schneider tapped twice on the console and called up three files.
Gu Bei, Eli Yi and Fingel's.
"S-class student Gu Bei is performing a special mission in the North Pole and lost contact with the academy twelve hours ago. According to Norma's calculations, they should have encountered dragons, which triggered this elemental attack. "
"They met a dragon king in the North Pole?" The night watchman frowned, "This is too much of a coincidence. The S-class just killed a dragon king in Japan, and now he went to the North Pole to perform a mission and met another one. What is it about his physique that attracts the dragon king? ?"
"Unfounded speculation." Pompeii shrugged.
, "But this is a good thing, isn't it? Our S-class already has experience fighting against the Dragon King. Maybe he has put a knife on the Dragon King's neck now."
"Don't be too optimistic." Schneider shook his head. "Unlike the premature baby in Japan that barely completed hatching, this guy in the Arctic should have been born six or seven years ago."
Six or seven years...
The night watchman reacted: "You mean the Greenland ice sea..."
Schneider shook his head: "It's just a possibility, not sure yet."
Although he said this, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
Seven years ago, during the Greenland Incident, a mysterious creature suspected to be an ancient dragon froze the entire sea, and the only survivor was Schneider.
Although he survived by chance, his face and respiratory system were still destroyed by the extreme cold, rendering him a ghost and a ghost, and he had to wear a respirator for life.
But what pained him even more were the students who sacrificed their lives.
At that time, most of the people who followed him on missions were his students. Schneider was very passionate about education and was always surrounded by outstanding students.
After that incident, his personality changed drastically. He completely gave up his education work and transferred to the execution department to fight dragons with extremely tough methods.
This is not atonement but revenge, and it is for this reason that Schneider received strong support from Principal Angers.
Over the years, Schneider's body began to slowly recover under Gu Bei's conditioning, but he was getting older and older, and it was time to retire. He has not retired yet simply because he has not yet found a qualified successor.
But at the end of his term, Schneider met his old enemy.
How could this not be delightful.
How could it not make people boil with murderous intent?
Schneider gritted his teeth, his pupils flashing with scarlet gold.
His bloodline was not enough to support him in breaking through the shackles of the commandments, but this murderous intention was wrapped in the bloodline, as if it was about to break out of the body, and even the night watchman whose bloodline was comparable to the first generation species could not help but be frightened.
There was silence in the control room until Norma sounded the second alarm.
"Alert! Alert! A large-scale elemental turbulence has been detected in Fengjie, Ba County, Tianchao! Alert! Alert! A large-scale elemental turbulence has been detected..."
The expressions of everyone in the control room changed.
Schneider controlled the rotation of the huge earth projection, revealing another area marked in red.
"Bajun Fengjie..." The night watchman frowned, "Is the Kuimen plan of the Three Gorges coming from here?"
"That's right." Schneider nodded, "But the progress of the Kuimen plan is not going smoothly. Mance and the others seem to have been blocked by local forces and have never been able to reach the planned location, so the plan has not actually been officially launched."
"How about trying to establish communication with Professor Mance?" Pompeo suggested. "We can't get involved in matters over at the North Pole for the time being, and there is a good guy like Gu Bei there to support us. There won't be any unexpected situations in a short time. Since So, why don’t we deal with the Three Gorges issue first, so that we can mobilize more manpower to support the Arctic.”

After listening to Pompeii's opinion, Schneider turned his attention to the night watchman.
After all, Pompeo is only the "acting principal" and is newly appointed. Although he is nominally the temporary boss of Schneider, the executive minister, for Schneider, the executive minister, Pompeo is an outsider, and Angers is not here now, so He could only ask the Night's Watch for advice.
The night watchman considered it for a moment and nodded: "I agree."
Now that a consensus was reached, there was nothing more to say. Norma immediately took action and tried to connect to the communication equipment of the Monyach. At this time, another alarm sounded in the room.
"Alert! Alert! A large-scale elemental turbulence has been detected in Luzhou, Huizhou City of the Chinese Empire! Alert! Alert! A large-scale elemental turbulence has been detected..."
In an instant, the faces of the three people in the central control room became extremely ugly.
The night watchman slapped the console: "What's going on? How come these dragon kings are all here at once?"
All popped up? Are the Four Dragon Kings engaged in team building? Or is it because Gu Bei killed a dragon king, so the other dragon kings are going to come out to eat? "
"The reason is not important, Leonardo," Pompeo said. "What is important is that we must take action. We cannot just sit back and wait for death."
He said, turning his head to look at the huge projection of the earth.
"There is Gu Bei over there at the North Pole. We can put him aside for a while. Huicheng Luzhou... Schneider, can you contact Angers?"
Schneider shook his head: "The principal's communication was cut off three days ago. We only know that the principal is still in the Vatican. As for how to contact him, we don't know."
Pompeo sighed: "If Ange can be freed, then he can be asked to solve the problem in Luzhou. After all, we have no preparations in Luzhou... It is too late to mobilize manpower temporarily, so we might as well leave it alone. No matter what, let’s focus on overcoming the Kuimen problem first, and then allocate manpower to help the other two sides.”
Even without asking the night watchman for his opinion this time, Schneider knew that this was the only and most efficient way.
At this moment, Norma was connected to the Monyach.
As soon as the communication was connected, the first thing I heard was the noisy sound, the footsteps of the crowd coming and going, and Mance's eager command.
"Hello? Schneider or Manstein?"
"It's me, how's the situation?" Schneider's voice was very recognizable.
"The situation is very bad! We couldn't enter Kuimen, and the exploration application has never been approved, but the temperature outside Kuimen has risen by 150 degrees.
"No, it's not the next generation." Schneider said, "Norma has detected large-scale elemental turbulence. If nothing unexpected happens,
"Lord of Bronze and Fire...Norton?"
