The Supreme Satanic System-Chapter 160 Candidates!

Dong! Dong! Dong!.... (Chimed)

It was early in the morning and today, the gonging sounds of the bell chimed all across the region of the Military site of the Blue Lagoon Headquarters.

It came from the tower bell on top of the Elite Union's building. It continued ringing for a complete hour.

Bobby ended his Origin Chi cultivation and came out of the house after hearing the tolling of the bell.

Just after he got out of his house, he was first greeted by Captain Shiko.

"Yoo!"

"Good Morning, Captain!" Bobby greeted as he thumped his fist on his chest.

"When did you come?" asked Captain Shiko.

"I arrived here yesterday. I'm here to report about my recent mission." Bobby replied.

"And you didn't come to meet your mentor, did you?" Captain Shiko said with a smile.

"Sir, I intended to go straight to you and greet you! Everything I have now is because of your generosity." Bobby replied from Loki's perspective.

"Hey, don't be so worked up. It's just a joke." Captain Shiko said, waving his hand.

Bobby saw soldiers running toward the Elite Union's main building, where the bell was ringing.

"Captain, what's with this bell jingling? And why are they all rushing toward that building?" He asked curiously.

At the time he asked that question, Bobby could see Captain Shiko's low mood.

Captain Shiko heaved a heavy sigh. "Hmm, finally, it's the time again." He muttered under his breath.

He responded, looking at Bobby. "It's regarding the candidacy for selecting the next Blue Lagoon Unit's Chief... they once listed me as a candidate, but changed to someone else in the eleventh hour. Forget it. Let's ?see what those old fogeys have to choose this time."

Bobby agreed and together they headed toward the building, which was still ringing.

They soon reached the place and in front of them was already a sea of people around the Elite Union's building.

Bobby's first plan here was to become the Blue Lagoon Unit's Chief. So this event intrigued him and at one point he was disappointed that the selection came faster than he thought.

"Captain, I have already read all the books in the military library. However, I have never come across this type of selection before. Can you perhaps enlighten me?" He asked.

Seeing his curiosity all written over his face, Captain Shiko came to realize something and he thought in his mind. 'What an ambitious fella? So all this time and his rapid increase in his military ranks… Now, I understand what he is striving for?'

"Well, listen, to select a Lagoon's Chief, one has to first clear the test. However, before that, those candidates have to be selected, right? I mean, not anyone can take this test." Captain Shiko began explaining.

He added, "They will select only three candidates from the mass of the geniuses each session, which intervene every five years. And three eminent figures will select the three candidates. From the perspective of the system, this selection process should be unbiased… But, somehow, the nobles' families gained their favors or found some dirt on them and selection has been a fluke that until today none of the candidates could clear the test and hence, the Chief's seat has been left vacant until today." He ended with a melancholic tone in his voice.

Then suddenly the ringing of the bell stopped. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

"Oh, the meeting of the three eminences has begun!" He said, turning his attention to the top floor of the building.

Suddenly, everyone closed their mouths, and there was complete silence.

After over ten minutes, the bell at the top of the building started tolling once again. Then a Middle-aged male angel flew out of the top floor and floated high above in the air, quivering his wings.

"Listen, everyone, before I announce the three candidates' names. I have a big announcement to make." The man spoke using a trace of Angelic Grace Energy in it.

"Boo! Boo!...." Everyone began booing in anticipation of learning the names of the three candidates.

"Silence!" The man's voice reverberated, making all of them shut up.

He then continued, reading out aloud the piece of paper in his hand. "Alright, first, we promote the level 9 elite Agent Loki Bradworth to level 10 for his recent achievement of single-handedly capturing the notorious well-known terrorist group, the Truth Of Banishment Gang!"

The next thing, the crowd applauded him as they shouted his name in delight.

"For this achievement, he will be crowned a nobility, exempting himself from his earlier ties to the Bradworth family and receiving a city as a reward. Okay, this is it."

Afterward, there was yet another commotion as everyone cried out in Loki's name, and some openly ridiculed the Bradworth family for mistreating such an intelligent and gifted individual.

And the booming sound of the angel floating in the air silenced everyone. "Now, I'll announce the three candidates for this term's Chief Selection Trial. "

"Logan Bradworth of the Bradworth family!"

Hearing the first candidate's name, Captain Shiko frowned and muttered with annoyance. "The cycle continues. Hmm!"

"Juno Tempest of the Tempest family!" The man in the air announced the second name.

When they heard his name, the crowd erupted into a roar, especially among the ladies.

Even Captain Shiko, however, did not complain this time, which proved that Juno Tempest was someone really popular among the Elite level 10 of the Blue Lagoon Unit.

Bobby mused, 'So this guy must be pretty smart.' ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

"And the last candidate's name..." The announcer intentionally halted and yelled at the top of his lunge. "Loki Bradworth!" He intentionally omitted the names of his family during his announcement.

All the soldiers of different ranks went wild as they roared even louder than before.

Even those around Bobby cheered without knowing that they were cheering the very man standing beside them.

Bobby and Captain Shiko were the only ones inactive among the crowd.

One stood idling, not cheering for himself since it would seem odd, while the other turned his head with a bewildered look at the earlier.
