After rebirth, one gold coin bought the Elf Princess

At first he didn't take it seriously, thinking that the old man probably needed to use the Observatory alone.

However, he still couldn't get in the next night.

There's something wrong with that.

Stevenson had an alliance with him and would inform him in advance if anything really happened.

They have a way to contact each other, so how could they remain silent?

Since the old man didn't contact him, as a younger generation, he must take the initiative. He immediately contacted Egilina to inform her of the situation.

Egilina also felt something was wrong and couldn't contact anyone, so she went straight to her teacher's wife, who was more than 700 years younger than her teacher, to inquire about the situation.

This question made Egelina completely confused.

The teacher committed suicide.

He left behind a suicide note that sounded like the mumbling of a mentally ill patient and committed suicide in despair.

Egelina had no time to be sad. She had to face the reality immediately. How to deal with the aftermath?

This is not as simple as giving the teacher a decent funeral.

When the teacher was around, he could still control Leo and Chris. Now that the teacher is dead, these two ambitious guys will definitely take action.

When Stevenson was alive, he had been trying to train Egelina, hoping that she would take over the Stargazing Society.

Although the teacher thinks so, the stargazing club is not a private enterprise and cannot be privately transferred.

Egilina's current strength and influence are not as good as Leo and Chris, who are ranked second and third. It is difficult for her to compete, but she is unwilling to not compete.

She knew these two guys too well. They had great ambitions but little talent, and were short-sighted. They would definitely lead the Stargazing Club into trouble.

The teacher has poured all her efforts into the Stargazing Society. It was under her leadership that the Society grew from a humble academic organization into the multinational giant it is today. She cannot bear to see the decline of the Stargazing Society.

We must think of a way.

After thinking about it, Egilina found her mind in a mess. She didn't know how to deal with it, so she could only return to Roland helplessly.

"Don't panic, I'm here!"

Roland gave Egilina a firm look and said in a deep voice: "In the eyes of Leo and Chris, you are not a threat at all, but your support can determine their victory or defeat."

"I know, but I don't support anyone."

"Then let them fight first!"

Roland said decisively: "We sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and we reap the benefits."

“What if they contacted me and asked for my support?”

"I supported everyone who asked. I had to stand on the moral high ground and put the interests of the Stargazing Society first. Then I hid for a few months under the pretext of being in mourning for the teacher."

Egilina nodded quickly.

Roland was right. Everyone in the Stargazing Club knew that although she and Stevenson were master and apprentice in name, they were actually as close as father and daughter.

It is reasonable for her to observe mourning for her teacher.

People often need reminders when they are panicking, and so does Egilina.

Roland's proposal was not complicated. How could she not understand such basic operations as sitting back and reaping the benefits? It was just that her mind was in a mess and she couldn't think of it for a while.

Following Roland's advice, she quickly sorted out her thoughts and came up with a plan to deal with the situation.

The first step was to make the teacher's death public and hold a high-level funeral for him.

While Leo and Chris devote themselves to the struggle to seize power, Egilina must gather intelligence and see the attitudes of other astrologers.

Although she was very anxious, she finally calmed down after Roland's persuasion.

In order to support her, Roland simply invited Sophia to join the game and act as Egilina's backing.

Sophia was the princess of Fran and originally did not want to get involved in such a fight, but Roland dispelled her concerns with just one sentence.

"The fight for the Stargazing Society is bound to be very bloody."

Sophia is in urgent need of an intense battle to improve her perception, and the word bloody is very tempting to her.

On second thought, the Fran Empire didn't need to care about other people's opinions. Just participate. With Roland and her, there was no way they would lose. There was nothing to worry about.

Egelina returned to her teacher's home, first comforting her heartbroken wife, and then helping to calm the emotions of family members.

Fortunately, the teacher has never been married and has only one child with his current wife Luna, so he does not have to worry about disputes over the distribution of his personal inheritance.

Egelina stayed at her teacher's house for a few days, but still couldn't accept the fact that Mr. Stevenson suddenly went crazy and died.

This kind of madness is like the sudden collapse of years of beliefs, without any signs or any way to prevent it.

In short, it's very desperate.

Just when she was at a loss, Roland finally arrived.

After expressing his condolences to Mr. Stevenson and his family, Roland was invited by Egilina to the study.

Egilina laid out all of her discoveries from the past few days directly in front of Roland.

"My mind is in a mess right now. Please help me make a judgment."

Roland was a little speechless, but he knew this was the best choice.

Stevenson's position in Egelina's heart was even higher than that of her father, and his mysterious death was a great blow to her.

If Stevenson died at the hands of her enemies, she would be filled with rage and consider how to avenge him.

If Stevenson died from a failed breakthrough, she would be sad but not too heartbroken.

However, Stevenson's death was too strange.

He doesn't look like a super powerful person who is in seclusion to find a way to break through to become a demigod.

Roland finished reading all the information and fell into deep thought. Egilina asked tentatively:

"Could it be that the teacher could not find a way to break through to become a demigod and eventually became mentally ill?"

This possibility is not small.

Throughout the long history of mankind, many masters have lost their minds and eventually become insane in this way.

If this is true, although it is emotionally difficult to accept, at least there is a clear result.

Roland shook his head slowly and said in a deep voice, "Since Mr. Stevenson can obtain the divine weapon, the possibility of him breaking through to the demigod level is very high. Even if he cannot break through, he will most likely die on the way to the breakthrough, not in this situation."

Egilina nodded and accepted Roland's statement. Just as she was looking blank, Roland said something shocking that shocked her.

"I think Mr. Stevenson has broken through."

"How can this be!"

Egilina's emotions suddenly became excited. "Breaking through to become a demigod is a good thing for him personally, and it is a great blessing for the Stargazing Society. How could it be..."

"Because the demigod is a trap, and Mr. Stevenson happens to see that."

Roland reminded softly, "Mortals cannot spy on the fate of gods, but can demigods?"

Egelina was a little hesitant, as this was her blind spot in knowledge.

She pondered for a long time but was still unsure. "It's hard to say how big the gap is between demigods and gods, but it's certain that a demigod can be on par with a god when he reaches the pinnacle of cultivation."

Roland thought to himself.

This perception is nothing more than a stereotype that God has forced upon the world.

He did not rush to relay the message he got from Sophia to Egelina, but instead reminded her:

"I'll go with you to the library to look up the classics."

The Stargazing Society's collection of books is very rich, and there are many records about demigods. It is indeed a good idea to go there to look for answers.

The library of the Stargazing Society is located in the Star Palace, which is located in the sky.

The Star Palace was once a divine artifact, but after exhausting its divine power and failing to replenish it, it was downgraded to a quasi-divine artifact.

It was quietly docked at the border area of ​​the Holy Essen Empire.

In order to win over the Stargazing Society, the Holy Essen Empire took this opportunity to grant Stevenson fiefdom and title, making him a vassal of the empire.

The Star Province is located on the southern border of the Holy Essen Empire. It has convenient transportation, fertile land, and a population of over two million. It is the territory of Stevenson, the Duke of Star.

Roland and Egilina were in a hurry to travel, so they simply gave up the horses and used the teleportation method to continue their journey. It only took them two hours to reach the Star Palace.

Just after entering the Palace of Stars and before she had time to go to the library, a middle-aged astrologer stopped Egilina.

"Lena, I am very sad about Mr. Stevenson's death, but unfortunately I don't have the time to go and pay my respects."

Egilina bowed her head slightly and said softly, "Mr. Leo, there is no need to do this. The stargazing club needs someone to take charge. It's enough to show your intention."

"Let me introduce you. This is Roland, the last member of the Xingchen Club. After the teacher recommended him to join the club, he never had the chance to meet everyone. I didn't expect that our first meeting would be in this kind of occasion."

Leo casually stretched out his right hand, smiled innocently, shook hands with Roland in a familiar manner, and laughed heartily.

"No need for introduction. Although Brother Roland has never been to the headquarters, I have known his information for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to meet him."

"It's a pity that Mr. Stevenson is not here, so I can't introduce Roland to other astrologers. Fortunately, I can do this little thing for you."

Roland smiled and shook hands with Leo, then shook his head casually. "No need to go through so much trouble. Egilina is the president's personal disciple, so she can introduce me to him."

Leo's face changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

When a new astrologer arrives at the Stargazing Society headquarters, it is customary for the president to introduce him to everyone.

Just now, he seemed to have no ulterior motive in asking to introduce Roland, but in fact, he was putting himself in the position of the new president.

If Egelina and Roland accepted it readily, it would mean that they accepted the fact.

If they ask Chris to introduce it, it means they are on Chris' side.

If Egilina asked me to introduce her, it meant...

It means nothing.

Because Egilina was Stevenson's only disciple, she could fulfill her teacher's duties in her personal capacity.

This is equivalent to Stevenson introducing Roland.

Roland was brought into the stargazing club by Stevenson, which was reasonable and in accordance with the rules, and no one could find any fault with it.

Leo looked at Egilina's clear eyes and could not find any flaws, so he had to assume that she had no ulterior motives.

He glanced at Roland, but couldn't see anything.

Roland's expression was simpler; he was here to help Egelina.

To confirm his judgment, Leo took half a step back and winked at Roland. Roland understood and walked side by side with him, using a magic barrier to block out the sound.

"Roland, have you thought of your code name yet?"

Every astrologer has a code name, for example, Leo's code name is [Good Man] and Egilina's code name is [Rose].

Roland thought for a moment and said calmly, "Knight."

"Mr. Leo, I know what you want to know. I can assure you that as the last in line, I have neither the qualifications nor the ambition to pursue anything."

"You know, I have three kingdoms and I'm still working on building an empire."

Leo smiled with relief.

Of course he knew that Roland had no ambitions for the Stargazing Club.

Being the emperor of an empire is much better than being the chief of an astronomical society.

He did not hesitate to strike while the snake was still alive and immediately expressed his position:

"I see that you have a ruddy complexion and a strong aura. It is only a matter of time before you become the emperor of the new empire. When I become the chief, I will fully support you!"

Roland smiled slightly, without responding or objecting directly, but said calmly: "I don't care who is the chief, but I will be consistent with Egilina."

His attitude was also clear; for him, pursuing worldly status took far greater priority than competing for a seat in the Stargazing Society.

Roland has been an astrologer for the shortest time, has no foundation, and is not qualified to compete for the highest seat.

But he is a human hero after all, and his reputation is far-reaching, so Leo has to be cautious.

Egilina was the last seat before Roland joined, and was not originally qualified to compete for the highest seat, but she had a special status as she was the direct disciple of the original chief.

This identity makes her the most important person besides Leo and Chris.

She may not be able to become the chief, but who she supports can basically determine who will win.
