Unlike the gods, most of the onlookers didn't know what magic tricks were going on, and they didn't understand what was going on with the fights between the gods, plus the distance was relatively far, so in the eyes of the masses, Sissi was put down by the Germans in three moves.

This shocking fact made everyone dumb at once. The Austrians still have a lot of affection for this goddess who single-handedly killed the witch and quelled the Serbian rebellion, and many people even took out the Austro-Hungarian flag used on the emperor's coronation anniversary, ready to cheer for Sissi.

After the initial loss, someone in the crowd shouted: "The Germans must have cheated it!" ”

This groundless inference immediately won wide approval, and many people were excited to "find the German theory", and the revolution that had just passed made all the Austrians have a heart to dare to rebel, and the crowd gathered around the duel venue was about to be transformed into a protest procession, and at this time, Lin Youde's propaganda truck arrived.

"Don't get excited, Miss Chihiro just disintegrated Miss Sissi's fighting ability, and Miss Sissi didn't suffer any damage, and she even kept her consciousness clear." While the loudspeaker of the propaganda car was sinicized towards the crowd, the image of Sissi's treatment was projected on the screen behind the car with a projector.

This was the result of Lin Youde's scientists, who wanted a camera that could immediately see what they had captured without developing it for research, so Baolilai was born in advance.

It's a pity that the production cost is too high, even Lin Youde can't think of any good way to effectively promote, and the profit margin is also worrying.

Still, he ordered a batch to equip his own propaganda organs.

Now, this is the first public appearance of this new technique. The Austrians were frightened by the sudden appearance of the photograph in front of their eyes, unable to judge the authenticity of the photo, and fell into a daze. The propaganda truck continued to shout: "We strictly abide by the etiquette of dueling, please do not listen to slander and be used by people with ulterior motives." ”

Lin Youde came from an era of developed public opinion, he was well aware of the importance of controlling public opinion, and he never relaxed in terms of propaganda. At this time, the members of the Austrian branch of NERV, who had long been instructed to stay in the crowd, took advantage of the confusion of the crowd and began to stand up and grasp the direction of public opinion.

The crowd's dissatisfaction was quickly quelled, and after the news spread from the loudspeaker of the propaganda vehicle that "Miss Sissi will meet everyone in public when she recovers to a certain level", the crowd began to disperse and go home.

**

Lin Youde breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news that the crowd had begun to disperse in the preparation area of the dueling arena.

Before the battle began, Lin Youde had to work hard to convince the fox not to be heavy-handed, so he had to accept a bunch of quid pro quo for which he had no discipline. Lin Youde didn't care if he won or lost this battle, as long as the fox was not seriously injured, he could accept it. Winning can increase prestige, make the Great Powers have unrealistic speculations about the gadgets made by Boer and De Broglie, overestimate Lin Youde's technical ability, and play a role in deterring the Great Powers. Losing that would give the Austrians a face, and the road to consolidation would have been much smoother after that.

He was most afraid that the fox would go up and kill Sissi, which would anger the Austrian masses. The grassroots organization of NERV in Austria is not very complete, and there are many speculators mixed in, he does not think that relying on this can completely calm the anger of the Austrians, and if it is not good to let the merger yellow, the ducks in hand will fly, then stealing chickens will not be lost.

Fortunately, the fox kept the agreement with Lin Youde, and his subordinates showed mercy. However, the fox could get such an overwhelming advantage, Lin Youde really didn't expect it.

The scientists didn't seem to think of this, and like Lin Youde, they felt that the egg-sized absolute defensive shield had a limited impact on the battle situation......

It seems that what kind of effect the technical equipment can achieve really depends on the person who uses it.

At this time, de Broglie and the others were busy removing the recording tapes from the recorders installed all over the fox's magic armor, and their expressions looked blue like those of old farmers who had reaped a good harvest.

Lin Youde could vaguely hear their excited conversation: "I originally thought that most of the recorders would be destroyed in the battle, so I put as many as possible, but I didn't expect ......"

"I'm back!" The fox's voice drowned out the conversation of the scientists, and everyone's eyes turned to Chihiro, who had changed her clothes, "The doctor has examined it, and except for some bruises and some strains from the impact in some places, the body is completely fine!" ”

"And you've been checking it out for so long?" Lin Youde asked rhetorically.

The fox lifted the hem of her skirt, spun around in place a few times, and then replied, "It takes a lot of time for girls to change their clothes, and you will have to attend the abdication ceremony of the Austro-Hungarian Emperor later?" If you don't dress modestly, you'll be embarrassed by your dear advisor. ”

Lin Youde smiled helplessly: "I think if you don't change your temperament, you will embarrass me whatever you wear." ”

"Hey, hey, hey, this is my signboard, how can I lose it." The fox laughed as he adjusted the chest support of his dress to make himself look plumper.

Lin Youde shook his head and changed the subject: "Viola has already left for the venue of Ferdinand's abdication ceremony, let's hurry up." ”

"Okay~" The fox raised her right hand and dragged out her voice like a schoolboy, then she hooked Lin Youde's arm, turned around and waved to the scientists who were still struggling with a large number of recording tapes - but no one seemed interested in the bewitching fox.

"I'm a little hurt," the fox retracted his gaze and rubbed his face against Lin Youde's shoulder, "I'm not as attractive as those data!" It's better to be a dear advisor, who never snubs me. ”

"You're a guy." Lin Youde pursed his lips, "I'll be jealous if I always give hugs to those handsome men." ”

"I'm not really going to be nice to them." The fox replied disapprerovingly, and continued to rub Lin Youde's arm, "You can relax." I'm not going to lose someone who has the potential to be a generation of overlords. ”

When the fox said the word overlord, the Austrian official in charge of opening the door for Lin Youde raised his head in surprise and quickly looked away. Lin Youde estimated that he would soon write this scene on the report and submit it to someone.

It doesn't matter, though.

**

Schönbrunn Palace on June 15 looked like the difference from the last time Lin Youde was in seasonality, but Lin Youde always felt that the very well-groomed courtyard had a bleak smell.

The once prominent empire, in the end, only the beautiful palace remained, as the so-called "Wu Palace flowers and plants buried in the path, the Jin Dynasty dressed like an ancient mound".

"What's wrong, sentimental?" The fox who put his arm around Lin Youde asked, "This doesn't suit your style." ”

"Nonsense, I'm a poet and a musician, I'm naturally sentimental." Lin Youde said unashamedly, he paused, changed his tone and continued, "I have coordinated this palace with the Austrian Provisional Government, and I will obtain ownership of it and the artworks it collects in exchange for persuading Viola to agree to Austria's limited autonomy. ”

"You're really attached to these palaces." The fox let go of Lin Youde's hand, hurried a few steps forward, and opened his hands to look like an innocent girl walking in the garden, "However, I prefer this place to Sanssouci Palace." ”

"It's impossible for us to move our base camp here," Lin Youde also slowed down and looked at the surrounding scenery, "It's too wasteful to just be a vacation place." I'm going to turn it into a museum, where everything related to the Austro-Hungarian Empire is collected and preserved. ”

"This is a bureau set up to buy Sissi?" The fox turned around and walked backwards towards Lin Youde, with a wicked smile on his face, "I don't care, little Viola will be jealous." ”

"Do you really think I can buy her?" Lin Youde shook his head, "Her personality doesn't fit in with me." However, there is still hope for a partnership, so it doesn't hurt to increase her liking for me a little. But that's not what I built the museum for, I'm ...... Forget it, it's too hypocritical to say it. You think it's just to buy Sissi. ”

The fox laughed, she jumped to Lin Youde's side twice, and hugged his arm again: "I know it, I can still see things of this level." It's not bad to run a museum, and in the future, after we return to the field, we will come to the museum to see the gate. ”

"Yes, I will be responsible for checking tickets at that time, and if the charm still exists, you will go out to sell tickets and attract tourists."

"That's it, the museum is going to be trampled down by tourists. And all of them are male tourists. ”

"So we have to expand the museum's men's restroom?" Lin Youde's joke made the fox laugh, and at this time, the not too long trail had come to an end, and the servants at the gate of Schönbrunn Palace could be seen lined up to greet the guests.

Despite the collapse of the Empire, these royal servants still strive to maintain the majesty of the Crown.

The fox suddenly asked, "What will happen to these servants if this palace is ours?" ”

"I will continue to hire them. Of course, I'm an economic genius known for bringing jobs, and it's not good to open people casually. ”

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked to the door, and the servants had probably learned of the fate of the palace after the republicization from various sources, but they were obviously not in a hurry to pay homage to the new master, but chose to stand at the back of the line for Austria-Hungary.

Under the guidance of the guards, Lin Youde re-entered Schönbrunn Palace through the side gate and walked towards the meeting hall where the abdication ceremony was about to be held.

There, Lin Youde will witness the end of another empire with his own eyes.

As he walked down the corridor, the fox suddenly whispered, "Do you know that in a gossip tabloid I read in the morning, they already called you the Empire Terminator, and they are still speculating with some interest about which empire you will end next." ”

"To be honest," Lin Youde glanced at the fox, "I don't know this question myself. ”

"I think so."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Ahead, the door to the hall opened slowly with the sound of heavy bearings turning.
