Chapter 580: Chapter 580: Voting Results

Raise your hands to vote.

Forcibly taken away by Captain Kaimon for treatment, Abe immediately looked at the whole audience, paying close attention to the voting situation of each leader.

Inside the Scarlet Knights.

Blood Knight Lucius knelt on one knee beside Duchess Shaia Cornwall: “Leader… please trust me once, let Nicholas be examined on the spot. If he is taken to the prison, there will be no chance of respite.”

“Hmm… I know.”

Inside the Lionheart Knight Group.

Cass Martini had already asked the Great Knight Roland to give Han Dong a chance at the first time, but the response he received was Captain Roland’s cold answer:

“Deviant Demons…must not be spared.”

All of Han Dong’s friends are paying close attention to the current voting situation.

However, Han Dong kept his head down the whole time. He didn’t seem to care much about the voting result, but he looked puzzled… There seemed to be something he couldn’t figure out, the whole event was a bit strange.

The bald-headed councilor in front of him.

He is the same person who personally found him in the rest area before the final competition and invited him as a candidate for parliament.

Not only the problem of the candidate, but some ‘details’ always feel out of place…

Although the voting time is only thirty seconds.

But many leaders already have the answer in their hearts.

Black Rose Knight Squad – Luke Curran: [Right Hand – Agree]

Plague Knights – Moggleny Hesterwell: [Right Hand – Agree]

Holy Knights Group – Olivia Christian: [Left Hand – Disagree]

Behemoth Knight Group – Kaimon Rhein: [Right Hand – Agree]

Doomsday Knight Brigade – The Great Demon did not express a position for now.

Witch God Knight Legion – Jerroth Midaeum: [Left Hand – Disagree]

Terminal Knight Regiment – Alex Death God: [Right Hand – Agree]

Scarlet Knights – Shaia Cornwall: [Right Hand – Agree]

Hell Knight Corps – Marlon Hairpinz H Kazakovich: [Right Hand – Agree]

Lionheart Knight Group – Roland, The Pride of Lion: [Left Hand – Disagree]

WindRider Knights: Jack Mason: [Left Hand – Disagree]

Steam Knights: Gary G Troswick: [Left Hand – Disagree]

Secret Language Knight Order: Hugo Harrison: [Right Hand – Agree]

Just at this moment.

Dumps used a special magic method to consume a large amount of magic energy and send a solo message to Deputy Leader Archimedes of the Doomsday Knight Brigade.

“Please tell the Great Demon Leader… As long as you cast a vote for Nicholas, I choose to join you.”

The Archimedes on the stage immediately showed a smiling expression.

He and the Great Demon Leader didn’t care about Han Dong’s problem at all. The reason why the Great Demon did not express his position was that he guessed that he could use this point to recruit Dumps.

Upon receiving Archimedes’ report, the Great Demon Leader immediately raised his right hand.

In this way, the voting of the leaders ends… The situation is very bad.

Even if the Great Demon Leader adds a vote at the end, the ratio of votes for the thirteen leaders is [8:5].

You should know that there are still five councilors on the scene who have not voted… When counting all the votes, the final result is likely to be [8:10].

However…

In the special viewing area of the panoramic glass.

Four councillors appeared in different voting situations.

Three opposed and one agreed.

This scene made many people think that they were dazzled. The parliament clearly designed a ‘hidden test’ in advance in the general election, deliberately leading Han Dong to reveal the special traits of the Demon… Why does a different voting opinion appear?

Regardless, the count comparison changes to [9:8].

Only the bald councillor who led all this – Metophis – hasn’t voted yet.

The final result is likely to be a ‘tie’.

When that happens, more councilors will come to vote, and Han Dong can’t avoid being taken directly to jail.

However…

Standing in the center of the garden, the bald councilor – Metophis Tusadin, slowly raised his right hand.

“I agree with Captain Hugo’s proposition… the final voting result is [10:8].

The proposal of Captain Hugo is approved. Captain Hugo shall directly verify Valen’s identity in person.

If the validated result is [Demon], Nicholas will be directly brought to trial.

If the validated result is [Human], I, Metophis, will represent the council to express my sincere apologies to Nicholas, the future knight, and present a special item as an apology.

Now, Captain Hugo, please come forward for verification. The rest of the aspiring knights, please follow me and leave the garden area.”

After the bald councilor spoke, he looked at Han Dong with a particular gaze and then left.

At this time, only Han Dong present could discern a detail.

When Councilor Metophis left, he deliberately brushed past Captain Hugo, gently hitting Hugo’s chest with his fist…there was a brief exchange of glances between the two.

There was even a hint of laughter hidden within.

“Ahem! Knights, councilors, and important staff of the Holy City.

Because I still have a lot of work to finish, I will speed up the verification process… If the Group Leaders, councilors, or senior officials have any doubts, they can raise them on the spot.”

Immediately, Captain Hugo stepped forward; a swift chop.

Swish!

Han Dong’s right arm was completely severed.

“As Nicholas and I have already met in the preliminary rounds, I am rather familiar with his aura.

At present, I smell a different scent from this arm, this arm is not a part of the original body of Nicholas but temporarily connected.

Based on my years of archaeological experience and research on the Demon Tablet…

I guess that this Nicholas, the future knight, during the [Breaking Seed] process, did something extremely dangerous that almost nobody dared to try in the Holy City.

He did not completely kill the demon but deliberately retained the consciousness of the demon for his own use.

As he finished speaking…

With a unique method, Captain Hugo hypnotized and controlled the ‘Scarlet Count Consciousness’ in the arm.

The Scarlet Count had no chance of resistance at all.

Crunch Crunch~ Several tentacles grew from the pores of the arm in an instant, and an advanced type of ‘Tentacle Isomerization’ transpired, forming a doghead state.

“You are not mistaken, Nicholas retained the consciousness of the demon used for Breaking Seed and injected it into a special arm.

Due to encountering extreme danger in the [Sub-death Space], he chose to have this arm grafted onto himself.

There should still be doubts in your minds.

Why can the tentacles undergo isomerization? Isn’t this an ability only mastered by the mature deviant demons? That’s right… the object Nicholas used for Breaking Seed is a [Mature Body-Demon].”

With this statement, the venue erupted.

“What?! Kill [Mature Deviant Demon] to Breaking Seed?”

It’s unheard of.

Since the construction of the Holy City, no one has ever done this. A Mature Body is much stronger than a Newborn… even an isolated knight squad might be annihilated when encountering a demon of this level.

At this moment, the voice of Great Knight Rolan came directly from the audience:

“Wait… I don’t care which demon this lad has used for Breaking Seed.

What I want to know is, how can he, as a human, connect a demon’s arm to himself?

Why isn’t he affected by the pollution?”

“The question asked by Captain Roland is excellent… This is something I intend to explain in detail next.

The reason Nicholas decided to retain the consciousness of the demon is because he possesses the extremely rare [Immune to Pollution] attribute.”

This begins with Valen Nicholas being born in the [Samay Civilian Area].

He was once involved in the widely publicized [Black Crow Incident] when he was a four-year-old child… Presumably, Mr. Black White took note of this point before taking him as his only student.”
