Chapter 2142: Alex!
Everyone present looked at Mag.
However, no one could come up with a word to refute him.
Who was he?
He was the man who attracted the ordeal lightning to suppress the devil and buy time to reseal the devil just as everyone was about to give up. He was the whistleblower of the Army of the Dead’s incident.
The promoter of world peace!
And… undoubtedly the number one powerhouse on the Norland Continent right now!
Now he has taken part in the election.
A smile appeared on Dexter’s face. His vote would naturally be given to Lord Alex.
Irina was also looking at Mag with a smile on her face.
He was indeed her man. The way he stood out was simply too suave.
“There should be no suspense now.” Camilla looked at Mag and shrugged. “Unless I take part, otherwise there is no suspense.” Dracula nodded.
Connie flicked a glance at Rex.
“You are the chief, you should make the decision, ” Rex said with a smile.
Connie nodded. She had already made a decision inwardly.
After Mag entered the election, no one else stood up to take part in it.
“Is there anyone else who wants to take part in the election?” Michael asked.
No one spoke up.
“Alright, all the races will now vote on the few candidates who stood up earlier and the one who receives the most votes will become the supreme commander of the allied forces!” Michael declared loudly, “Does any one of you have any other suggestions?”
Dracula put his hand up and seriously asked, “I have a question. We demons can’t reach a consensus, so how do we cast our vote?”
After a brief pondering, Michael said, “Why don’t you 10 tribes vote internally first? The one who receives the most votes will get the vote from the demons?”
The chief of the Abyss Demons patted his chest and said, “Vote for me if you are my bro.”
“Alex.” The Flaming Demons’ chief was the first to state his vote.
“Alex.” Dracula stated his vote on behalf of the vampires.
“Alex.”
Finally, Alex had defeated the Abyss Demons’ chief with 9:1 votes in the demons’ internal voting and received the very first vote.
“None of them are dependable…” The Abyss Demons’ chief had a sullen face. He
was really humiliated.
The other races chose to vote anonymously. The staff members passed the voting slips down and all the representatives wrote their choices on the slip before passing it up and letting Michael announce and count the votes right on the spot.
Chaos City, the giant dragons, the Roth Empire, the Orcs, the elves, the goblins, the dwarves, Lantisde and the trolls. There were a total of nine votes and in addition to the demons’ vote, whoever received the most votes would become the allied forces’ supreme commander.
All the representatives stared at the crystal box in front of Michael. It was transparent, so there was no chance to tamper with it.
Of course, Michael wouldn’t try such tricks in front of a bunch of 10th-tier powerhouses.
“Now, all the votes are here. I will conduct the counting right now.” Michael opened up his hands to show everyone present before he put them into the ballot box. He took out the first vote and opened it in front of everyone.
“Dominic!” Michael read out the name on the voting slip.
All the representatives looked solemn as they quietly waited for the results.
Michael took out the second vote.
“Helena.” Michael read out the name on the second vote.
“Dominic.”
The third vote was still Dominic.
Many people’s gazes landed on Dominic. It seemed like there were still people who trusted this experienced old marshal.
Mag also flicked a glance at Dominic. Technically speaking, Dominic was the best candidate for the allied forces’ supreme commander.
However, this battle was different from any other battles that the Roth Empire had with the other races before. Mag had to be the supreme commander in order to control the situation. Cthulhu couldn’t be killed.
They could only reseal it.
Fighting the Army of the Dead wasn’t their objective. The threat of the Army of the Dead would be eliminated as soon as Cthulhu was resealed.
Of course, given Cthulhu’s craftiness and unparalleled power, the allied forces definitely would have to pay a great price to stop the Army of the Dead’s Invasion.
Andre’s eyes lit up too. It naturally would be the best if Dominic could become the allied forces’s chief commander.
“Alex!” Michael took out the fourth vote and read out the name on it.
Dominic and Alex had both received Ovo votes, so the results were still unknown right now.
All the representatives had a thoughtful look. They began to consider what the situation would be if one of these two people became the allied forces’ chief commander.
Michael took out the fifth vote.
“Alex.”
“Alex.”
“Alex.”
Votes after votes with Alex’s name on them eventually killed all the doubts.
Alex received seven votes and became the allied forces’ chief commander with an absolute majority.
This was a world that idolized might after all.
Furthermore, compared to Dominic, who was loyal to the Roth Empire, Alex, who had left the Roth Empire, was indeed a safer choice.
Besides, just as Alex had said, no one knew the devil better than him in this world.
He was the only man who could fight with the devil.
And, also the only being who could repeatedly retreat safely from the devil.
Alex also came from the military. He was the chief commander of the Northwestern Legion back then and was deemed to be the next Roth Empire’s marshal.
“Alex receives seven votes, so he will be the allied forces’ supreme commander.” Michael declared loudly.
“It’s indeed him!” Camilla looked at Mag with amazement.
“He has received almost everybody’s trust. He’s simply too formidable.” Connie was also looking at Mag with adoration.
All the various representatives congratulated Mag too.
Mag stood up and said to all of them, “Thank you for putting your trust in me. I hope we can trust one other and cooperate to eliminate the devil and the Army of the Dead.”
“Relax. I’ll make sure the giant dragons follow your orders,” Louis chuckled and said.
Dexter got up and respectfully said, “Lantisde is loyal to you.”
Connie also stood up and respectfully said, “The orcs will obey all your instructions. ”
“The Roth Empire respects all the races’ choices and will follow your command.” Andre stated his stance too.
The concentration of power was smoother than what Mag expected.
Mag said to all of them with a grave expression, “This is destined to be a very difficult battle. We need immense courage and wisdom, so I hope Marshal
Dominic can be my assistant. He has a wealth of command experience and a great military simulation ability. He’s a great military strategist.”
Everyone’s gaze landed on Dominic.
Dominic stood up and cupped one fist in his other hand as he said to Mag, “I’ll definitely do my best..”
