Chapter 1688 1683: In the Name of the Wolf God
This was the first time Priest Reck and Su Chen met.With Priest Reck's experience, he easily recognized Su Chen's identity.
A human, a genuine human.
Yet, he sensed an ineffable aura from Su Chen.
Even he felt a trace of apprehension.
A purely evil Dark Power.
How could a human possess such an evil dark aura?
A slight doubt flickered in Priest Reck's mind.
But in the end, he did not step forward to say anything.
Because at least it seemed now, the stronger Su Chen's power, the more it would benefit Dean.
He had no reason to stop Su Chen at all.
"Your Excellency Dean, you, as the Clan Leader, should not be questioned about your decisions.
However, your decision seems a bit too hasty.
I hope you can be more cautious, as this concerns the fate of the Werewolf Clan!"
"If this choice were made from among us, that would be fine."
"But what qualifications does he have?"
Yet another Level Nine Werewolf with little hope stood up.
Choosing a Wolf King would have been fine, but a guy who isn't even a Level Nine Werewolf?!
There weren't many who truly knew about the battle between Su Chen and Baseth.
The Werewolf Clan is straightforward and big-mouthed.
Being the heir of the Oni Family, yet defeated by a Level Seven Werewolf opponent.
This was a blow to both Baseth and the dignity of the Oni Family.
It can be expected that this matter will spread throughout the entire Werewolf Tribe.
Baseth would completely lose his eligibility to compete for the position of Werewolf Clan Leader because of this.
But it's still too early at the moment.
Although Baseth was defeated by Su Chen, it hasn't reached the point of being widely known.
At this moment, those in the Temple who knew Su Chen's name were still a minority.
Casey wished he could kill Su Chen on the spot that day out of hatred.
If it weren't for Dean resisting with his life.
And Mishel intervening on the side.
He would have destroyed Su Chen without regard to the cost!
Where would Su Chen have had the opportunity to stand here vying for a precious council seat?
"He is not qualified, but what qualifications do you have?"
Since Dean pushed Su Chen forward to compete for the council seat, he naturally had to support Su Chen to the end at a time like this.
His gaze coldly swept over the Level Nine Werewolf.
Under Dean's gaze, the Level Nine Werewolf felt a chill in his heart.
Immediately felt a bit guilty and withdrew his gaze.
Su Chen was just a Level Seven Werewolf.
But Dean was a genuine Wolf King!
"Priest Reck, Dean's actions are simply for personal gain, disregarding the interests of the Werewolf Clan. I request you to reconsider the allocation of seats."
Immediately, an Initial Rank Wolf King requested Priest Reck.
Perhaps he found it hard to obtain this seat, but currying favor with a group of Middle Rank Wolf Kings was also worthwhile.
Mars Wolf King, who originally followed Hans Wolf King and gained little advantage, was also suddenly interested upon hearing this.
His older brother had left the position to the second brother, Casey Wolf King, failing to secure a spot for him.
Though he grumbled in his heart, he knew it wasn't Hans Wolf King's intent.
It was just that Reck, that old guy, was too terrifying.
Since his brother became a High Rank Wolf King.
The restless Mars had once sparred with Hans.
But the result was a crushing defeat.
He couldn't gain even the slightest advantage over Hans.
But as strong as Hans Wolf King was, he had no resistance whatsoever in front of that old guy Reck!
Indeed, Mars was somewhat reckless.
But ultimately, he wasn't completely brainless; if he were, he would long have been a corpse.
The two council seats couldn't satisfy Hans's ambition.
But coerced by Priest Reck's might, he had to choose submission.
Only now, a problem had arisen with Dean's method of allocation.
Not only did it catch Mars's interest.
Hans Wolf King also had thoughts about it.
If Mars truly wanted to compete for this position.
Then arrangements ensuring Middle Rank Wolf Kings could steadily surpass Mars in strength were feasible.
But in the face of the Oni Family, they would have no resistance whatsoever.
To feud with the Oni Family over the elusive benefits brought by a council seat.
Is there any family that could manage that?
Even if they do secure the council seat, converting the obtained benefits into practical strength still takes time.
"Dean, what do you think?" Priest Reck slowly asked.
There wasn't a shred of hesitation seen in Dean's eyes.
He decisively said, "Priest, I believe he is fully qualified to serve as a council member!"
"But he's just a Level Seven Werewolf!"
Someone couldn't wait to interrupt.
"Even so, he's stronger than you!" Dean said forcefully.
The Level Nine Werewolf who spoke was at a loss for words under Dean's retort.
His face had already turned red.
What a joke, a Level Seven Werewolf stronger than me?
I've long since stepped into the Peak of Level Nine!
Only a step away from being a Wolf King!
"Your Excellency Dean, if you insist that he, a Level Seven Werewolf, is capable of taking on great responsibility, I will challenge in the name of the Wolf God!"
Being ignored and belittled in public, the Level Nine Peak Werewolf was hot-tempered too.
He admitted he wasn't a match for Dean.
But not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry could be his enemy!
Level Seven Werewolf, with his strength, he could effortlessly tear a bunch apart!
If such a being could seize a council seat, he would rather die in battle!
"Are you serious?"
Priest Reck uncharacteristically asked solemnly.
Faced with the change in Priest Reck's attitude, everyone in the Sacrificial Temple was stunned.
Even the Level Nine Peak Werewolf who issued the challenge was taken aback.
But soon he showed a gleeful expression and persistently asked, "Priest, can I challenge him?"
"Of course, in the name of the Wolf God, no one can refuse the challenge, unless he is not one of our clan." Priest Reck stated righteously.
This statement put Dean against the wall.
Would he let Su Chen and that Level Nine Peak Werewolf fight?
If Dean stopped it, it would mean going against the Priest's will.
The Priest had already said, in the name of the Wolf God, no clan member could refuse.
Unless he contradicted himself and declared Su Chen not a member of the Werewolf Clan.
But once he did that, Su Chen's chance to become a representative of the Werewolf Clan in the Dark Council would utterly vanish.
"Priest..."
"Kid, dare to fight me? Or do you admit you're not a clan member?"
With Priest Reck backing him up, the Level Nine Peak Werewolf became fearless.
Even facing Dean's fierce gaze, he feared nothing.
Having already offended, why not be more arrogant?
Later, on the arena, just kill Su Chen outright!
