Chapter 817: An Emergency Proposal Regarding the [Source of All Laws]

The Mage's Tower, the Source of All Laws

Li Si leaned lazily against the bed, and the magic intelligence of the mage tower perfectly used a temperature control array to keep the room temperature at a cool and comfortable level.

Meanwhile, Lisa had long since fallen asleep from exhaustion. Her fair and rosy face showed a mixture of fatigue and satisfaction, and a few strands of hair damp with sweat brushed against her face, giving her a unique and alluring charm.

Li Si stroked Lisa in his arms with his right hand and stopped making a fuss.

Although Lisa is also a legendary powerhouse with a certain degree of physical enhancement, she is still far from being a match for Li Si.

After relaxing for a while, Li Si did not feel tired at all and was refreshed, ready to continue his previous thoughts.

When the forbidden fortress of Donovan appeared in the underground city, Li Si immediately prepared to go and explore it.

This was information that Li Si deliberately released during his conversations with some legendary councilors.

As he expected, someone secretly sabotaged his departure from Jonas City.

Of course, Li Si was not sure who the other party was.

There are many people who do this kind of thing.

Or rather, any legendary mage from any of the association's schools of thought would have a reason to attack Li Si.

After all, the other party did not leave any clues that could point to their identity in this matter.

Havel and similar incidents were insignificant to Li Si and the "Source of All Laws," at most causing some discussion and annoying Li Si.

In such matters, even the legendary figures of the Association School might take action.

However, if the other party is the traitor who cooperated with the dark elves, as Li Si suspected, then the other party certainly will not stop there.

So, what are that person or those people planning to do next?
Li Si pondered quietly.

He had quickly reviewed the intelligence gathered from various aspects of the association since the dungeon appeared in the association's territory.

Li Si didn't even let the black cat help him filter the information; instead, he personally examined the massive amount of intelligence.

From the content of the most recent legendary council vote to the various petty thefts that have recently occurred in Jonas City, Li Si has not let anything go unnoticed.

If the other party really intended to cause chaos within the association, it's impossible that they wouldn't have left no trace.

However, to Li Si's surprise, despite checking everything, he couldn't find any problems.

Apart from Havel and others' actions regarding the [Source of All Laws], nothing else has gone wrong.

It was as peaceful as the Pan-Continental Mage Association had been for the past few centuries.

After all, the Pan-Continental Mage Association is incredibly powerful, and as a supernatural force with immense influence, it doesn't occupy much territory.

Even if those evil god followers want to cause trouble, they don't need to provoke the Pan-Continental Mage Association.

The powerful mages' various magical techniques had caused them no small amount of trouble in the past.

Previously, this would have been considered normal.

However, Li Si already knew that the Spider Queen Lolth was secretly making preparations to target the Pancontinental Mage Association. Given the presence of a traitor, there was no reason for him to remain calm.

After much thought, Li Si concluded that there were only two possibilities.

Either the other party's methods were sophisticated enough that all the actions were carried out by legendary mages themselves, thus evading the detection of the association's magical intelligent life forms.

Either the other party has already made their move, and their target is the "Source of All Laws"!
After a moment of contemplation, Li Si felt that the second possibility was more likely.

If he is someone secretly plotting to disrupt the Pan-Continental Mage Association, then targeting the [Source of All Laws] would indeed be a suitable choice.

After all, the [Source of All Laws] has been making quite a stir within the association recently, affecting the interests of a considerable number of people.

From legendary councilors to magic apprentices, everyone is paying close attention to the movements of the Source of All Laws.

If the Source of All Laws were to fall into chaos, it would undoubtedly attract the attention of everyone in the Pan-Continental Mage Association.

In this situation, the floating city would receive far less attention.

This period of time was enough for Lolth, the Spider Queen, and the Dark Elves to continue their covert preparations.

Li Si felt the smoothness in his hand and raised an eyebrow.

If you want to take action against the "Source of All Laws," have you asked its leader?

The most crucial question now is, if his guess is correct, how the other side plans to continue stirring up trouble.

After all, in the eyes of most association members, Havel and his group were nothing more than clowns, unlikely to attract much attention.

Should we continue waiting for the other party to make a move?

Li Si hesitated for a moment.

After all, the sooner the Forbidden Fortress Donovan is resolved, the sooner Li Si can obtain the artifact he has been longing for.

The longer it drags on, the more likely any unexpected events will occur.

Just then, Li Si received a letter from the magical intelligent being Minos.

A pale white magic screen appeared in front of Li Si.

This is a notice regarding the convening of a new Association Legends Council voting meeting, scheduled for tomorrow.

Since each voting meeting is held on a fixed date each month, the notice is usually delivered one day in advance.

Legendary members of parliament who want to participate in the voting meetings will naturally not miss it, while those who are too lazy to participate will not care.

Li Si briefly glanced at the main topics of this voting meeting.

It's pretty much the same as before, with no significant differences.

Just as Li Si was preparing not to attend the meeting, Minos's voice appeared in Li Si's ears.

“Lord Li Si, according to your orders, any matter concerning the Pan-Continental Mage Association, the Legendary Council, the voting meeting, and you must be informed to you in advance.”

"Shortly after the notice of this voting meeting was delivered, legendary senator Genos Powers, the Earth Sage, urgently submitted a new motion application."

"The proposal is titled 'Application from the Legendary Council to Limit the Inappropriate and Uncontrolled Expansion of the Origin of All Laws School.'"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Minos's words, Li Si instantly perked up.

Did it come as expected?
The main event is coming!
So they're going to start directly with the Legendary Council?
Li Si was looking through the application submitted by Representative Genos on the magic screen in front of him.

The gist of the report is that the "Source of All Laws" school has recently been recruiting members to the association with various tempting conditions, but without proper management, which has aroused discussion and condemnation among the association members.

Furthermore, the actions of [Source of All Laws] in recklessly disseminating magical knowledge have begun to harm the interests of the association. Questioning Li Si's behavior of exchanging magical knowledge from the association and then making it public to everyone is a clear violation of the association's regulations.

At the same time, the actions of the "Source of All Laws" school have clearly influenced other schools of thought and need to be controlled.

In this proposal, Genos also put forward several solutions.

Basically, the association and the Legendary Council stepped in to restrict the [Source of All Laws].

For example, abolishing so-called academic papers and journals, restricting the free dissemination of magical knowledge, and limiting the number of students a school of thought can recruit, etc.

"Okay, I see."

Li Si nodded, and then Minos disappeared from the screen in front of Li Si.

Looking at the new proposal in front of him, Li Si's brain began to work at lightning speed.

Without a doubt, the other side has officially begun to take action.

Starting directly with the Legendary Council was indeed unexpected for Li Si. But thinking about it, it seemed to make sense.

Although the Pancontinental Mage Association's system is somewhat loose, legendary councilors represent the association's highest authority.

Unless the Speaker intervenes, a vote in the Legendary Council can be considered an irreversible decision.

In other words, if this proposal is indeed passed by the council, then to whatever extent, the "Source of All Laws" will definitely be subject to restrictions from the association.

This congressman is really something!
Li Si smiled slightly.

If a proposal is submitted urgently, its content will not appear in the previous meeting notice.

In other words, Li Si, as the leader of the "Source of All Laws," was unaware of the existence of this proposal and would likely not attend the meeting voluntarily.

After all, he's in the underground city right now!

Originally, Li Si had only been a member of the Pan-Continental Mage Association for a short time and did not have many allies among the legendary councilors.

If he himself does not attend, the motion is very likely to pass.

However, according to the association's rules, even if a bill involving the vital interests of a legendary member of parliament is passed by a vote, the member of parliament who has a stake in the matter has the right to temporarily postpone the implementation of the bill.

The implementation period will be extended until the next voting meeting.

If the bill passes again at the voting meeting, then there will be virtually no way to change it.

However, the other party's purpose is probably not really just to restrict the [Source of All Laws].

Once this resolution is passed, regardless of whether Lee uses his power as a legendary member to delay its implementation, the contents of the resolution will soon be known to the association's members.

Even if it doesn't pass, the other party will definitely find a way to spread this information.

[The Source of All Laws] may be restricted due to opposition from other legendary councilors!

Once this news gets out, it will become the most explosive news in the entire association.

This has already achieved the goal of diverting the other party's attention.

Even under these circumstances, the other party can still do more things in secret.

What a good plan!

Li Si shook his head.

This is what it's like to be an enemy of a legendary mage: in addition to direct combat, you also have to face attacks from all sides.

The legendary warrior, with his simple and honest nature, is still more approachable!

As he pondered this, Li Si's gaze shifted to the name of "Earth Sage" Genos Powers.

He was aware of information about this [Sage of the Earth].

As the leader of the "Earth's Abundance" school, Genos is a rather low-profile figure.

Li Si had never seen this person present at the previous voting meetings.

The "Earth's Abundance" school is also an unremarkable minor school, with only Genos as its legendary senator.

Strictly speaking, there was nothing wrong with Genos proposing this bill.

As the leader of the "Earth's Abundance" school, it's understandable that he would propose this bill for the benefit of the school.

But just because it's plausible doesn't mean that's how things really are.

Li Si was certain that there were others behind this Genos.

After looking through Genos's information, Li Si shook his head.

It's unclear from Genos's information who he's on good terms with, and the "Earth's Abundance" school has never collaborated with other schools.

The cleaner your hands and feet are, the more likely there is a problem!

Who is Li Si?

Putting aside the fact that he has already achieved the exaggerated feat of defeating many legendary powerhouses, his own strength has already surpassed that of many older generation legendary powerhouses.

Even legendary councilors are unwilling to confront Li Si because of the existence of Stephens, Li Si's teacher and the Third Speaker, "Flame of Judgment".

Otherwise, the establishment of the "Source of All Laws" would not have been so smooth.

But this unremarkable Senator Genos dared to oppose Li Si like this?

Aside from being asked by someone else, Li Si couldn't think of any other reason.

After all, the names of those who put forward bills cannot be hidden, but the individual votes of legendary members of parliament are not "public".

Those who planned this never imagined that Li Si had obtained the Speaker's authority and could do almost anything in the Legendary Council.

It wouldn't be a problem to cancel the bill before the vote.

However, Li Si had no intention of intervening.

He didn't want to alert these people prematurely.

This is a great opportunity to find out who these people are hiding!

For Li Si, having opened the back door, he could easily find out the identities of these people.

Even just narrowing down the scope would be quite valuable to Li Si.

Now that the other party has made a move, Li Si can no longer wait.

After tucking Lisa in, Li Si bent down and gently kissed her forehead before turning and leaving the room.

In a secluded garden in Jonas City,
Sitting on a chair in the garden, Talindra took a sip of her black tea and smiled as she looked at Li Si sitting opposite her, saying:

"Why are you looking for me at this time?"

"You've been doing well lately. Your idea of ​​establishing the [Source of All Laws] is excellent. Keep up the good work!"

"Do you want some kind of reward? Just say it."

"It can't be because of that proposal, can it?"

In response to Talindra's question, Li Si shook his head and said:
"Of course not, it's something much more important, involving the entire Pan-Continental Mage Association!"

Sure enough, the third speaker had been keeping a close eye on things within the association, and she even knew about the proposal that had just been submitted.

"What is it that you're taking so seriously?"

Tarindra was somewhat curious.

The most attention-grabbing thing about the association recently is probably the "Source of All Laws," right?
Those who opposed him wanted to sabotage things, and Li Si couldn't handle it.
Li Si then informed Taryndra of the situation regarding the underground forbidden fortress of Donovan and the Spider Queen Rose.

In addition, he did not hide his suspicions about the association's traitors, including his cooperation with the elves.

"okay, I get it."

Talindra nodded, her smile unchanged, seemingly not taking the evil goddess Lolth seriously.

"Since you're only coming to see me now, you must have already figured out what to do, right?"

"Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"

"Talendra said nonchalantly."
