As the first to be struck by the aftershock, even the top five advisors had ugly expressions on their faces. As for the ordinary personal guards, they vomited blood. Some of them had even fainted on the spot.
"Damn, so this kid is also a tough one."
The commander noticed Lin Yi's reaction, or to be more precise, he didn't react at all. He and Lin Yi were the only two people who didn't show any obvious reaction.
Just this point alone made Lin Yi's title of golden class early phase venerable enough to overwhelm most of the people present.
At this moment, the high priest and cruel malevolence had tacitly retracted their fists. The sudden disturbance disappeared.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief in unison.
It seemed that these two big bosses were only testing the waters. If they really started fighting, unless the Lord seagod personally appeared, the entire seagod Palace would be torn down.
Some people were paying attention to the changes in the expressions of the two, hoping to find some clues.
Although from the looks of it, no one was at a disadvantage in the first exchange, there was no first in literature and no second in martial arts. Since there was a test, there must be a difference in strength.
Who was stronger or weaker between these two was directly related to the power structure of the entire seagod Hall.
However, he could not see anything.
Cruel malevolence, who had been excited for a rare moment, quickly returned to his drowsy and lazy appearance. On the other hand, high priest Zhang xisheng, who had fought for the first time in 30 years, calmly put on his dark gold robe again and looked as kind as ever.
"You're the new Lin Yi?"
The high priest looked Lin Yi up and down for the first time, and everyone looked like they were watching a good show.
Everyone knew that Lin Yi had killed Zhang xiangding and Lyu Yangzhong. These two were the high priest's trusted aides.
No matter how much he cared about the big picture, as the number one figure under the Lord seagod, the high priest would inevitably have some reaction.
Lin Yi nodded,"greetings, high priest. You're here just in time to help me with my justice."
The high priest was slightly stunned, and then he revealed a playful smile.""I wonder what justice you need me to uphold?"
Lin Yi pointed at the commander,"my personal guard Camp has been detained by the commander. You're the Lord seagod's most loyal believer, and you must be someone who values rules the most. After thinking about it, I can only trouble you with this."
“……”
The commander's face turned into one of Spartax.
Good fellow, The Grudge between the two of you is much deeper than mine, and you can actually drag me into it with one sentence?
The high priest turned to look at him, his face asking,""There's such a thing?"
The commander was helpless. It was obviously you who incited this behind the scenes, but your acting skills are really amazing. You acted as if you really didn't know anything.
If it wasn't for you encouraging me from behind, how would I be in such a difficult situation?
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to expose her face to face, so he could only cooperate and say,""In fact, it can't be said that I deliberately detained them. Because of some previous reasons, that wave of coastal water King's personal guards have been scattered and mixed into the entire temple guard Army, and have completely adapted to their new identity.
If they were to be forcefully transferred out, they might not be willing to do so, and it would have a huge impact on the combat power of the entire temple guards.
This matter is directly related to the safety of our entire sea god Hall, so we can't afford to be careless. "
The high priest nodded and turned to Lin Yi,"As director Wang of the coastal waters, you still have to consider the big picture. Of course, I will definitely give you a full guard unit, but you need to recruit new people. Do you want to do it yourself or let the commander do it for you?"
“……”
The commander's face darkened again.
He knew that this was a quagmire, and he didn't want to beat Lin Yi up anymore. He wanted to hide as far away as possible, or else he might lose control and end up in the same dangerous situation again.
At that time, no one would come to help him out.
It was a pity that he couldn't clear his name right now, or he'd be offending not just Lin Yi, but the high priest himself!
"Well, it's not that troublesome," Lin Yi chuckled,"you can just hand over the elites to me-it shouldn't affect the strength of the entire Army, right?"
The commander can recruit a new wave of soldiers, and I can also have ready-made manpower to use. It's the best of both worlds. "
God F * cking had the best of both worlds!
The commander's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. There were nearly a hundred well-trained Supreme realm experts. Even if he were to sit in such a position, he would feel the pain.
After all, this was not as simple as just recruiting a hundred Supreme realm experts.
Even with the vastness of the sea area, it was not an easy task to recruit so many people, not to mention that they had to go through years of special training. He had poured his heart and soul into this.
Seeing his troubled expression, the high priest helped him out of the situation,""I'm afraid this request is a bit difficult. The stability of the temple guards should still be the first priority. King hai hai, why don't you think about it again?"
"There's nothing else to think about. I only have one request. "
Lin Yi's tone was firm, not allowing any room for discussion. It was as if he was going to fight to the end.
The rest of the people were stunned.
You're the new Lord of the coastal waters, and you're only an early phase golden class venerable. Where did you get the courage to ask for such an exorbitant price in front of the high priest and the commander?
The high priest turned to look at the top five advisors and asked with a meaningful look,""Is this also what you all want?"
Everyone looked at cruel malevolence. However, the first advisor was yawning in boredom. It was as if his soul had left his body. He didn't even hear the high priest's words and directly ignored him.
In the end, it was the second advisor, Madam Qing, who spoke on her behalf,""The Sea King's request is reasonable, and we think we should satisfy it. Otherwise, if he doesn't even have a guard unit, he'll become a light pole, and how can he serve the sea god?"
This answer was completely within everyone's expectations.
Supporting Lin Yi was just one of the reasons the top five had come here. The main reason was to pressure the commander. Now that the high priest was involved, they wouldn't back down.
The high priest looked around and smiled bitterly.""This is a bit difficult. Since we can't reach a consensus, why don't we ask the Lord seagod to personally make a decision?"
The crowd was in an uproar.
The sea god Hall naturally followed the Lord sea God's orders. If the Lord sea god could personally decide, then no one would have any objections.
