In the dimly lit room, shadows flickered with the light of the communication gems.

It accurately mimics the silhouette of a human form, but has no thickness or weight, just a shadow floating in the air.

"I understand the situation. However, it is still a little unbelievable that Charlemagne's royal capital actually lurks with demons that can rival the redeemer. ”

The shadow vibrated in the air with the voice of a man in his fifties, solemn and solemn, imbued with the power inherent in the authority of a superior to hold power—that is, to use others, to manipulate others, to mercilessly order others to die, to treat others as objects with total callousness.

"Several of these individuals are superior to the Atonementers...... Is it possible that human alchemy or some other method was used?"

The shadow said without any ups and downs, kneeling in the center of the communication technique, the little man with his cloak covered in his whole body bowed his head deeply, and replied:

"There is no definite evidence, but according to the fact that the opponent did not feel the continuous operation of Mana during the fight, and the instantaneous explosiveness, speed, and body that came out of the expression were by no means obtainable through guò training, I am afraid that they applied methods that we did not know. ”

"What we don't know......"

The body at the other end of the link technique controlled the urge to smile bitterly, and the slight shaking was faithfully projected on the shadow in the air, and a weightless sigh floated out of the shadow.

"It's a shocking talent, money, and courage—"

The emotion from the shadow does not fluctuate, as if reading a script.

"Siegfried Otto Lilin. ”

The little man moved slightly, raising his face slightly. The slender chin and white neck are exposed to the light of Mana. The flickering light gives the skin a fantastical halo, beautiful but not pretentious, and the lines reveal a certain resolute determination. Just a glimpse of a small hazy silhouette is enough to make men wonder more and more about what they look like beneath the cloak.

As soon as a certain name appeared, the mysterious girl couldn't help but exude a tense atmosphere.

Inventor, genius scholar, black lover, eccentric, mystical aesthete, debauched tyrant...... With many dazzling titles, he is worshiped and hated. Rich to rival the country. The president of the V.E consortium whose political influence cannot be underestimated. His talent is vividly displayed in every field, and he is an all-powerful "genius" in the eyes of the public.

But even with a developed intelligence network, they never thought of it. This "genius" and his company have developed a "product" beyond common sense behind the table—a killer that dwarfs even the redeemers. An unstoppable and incredibly powerful weapon. Add to that the unclear principle and the actual appearance. Instantly wipe out an island's strategic means of attack......

"That guy is extremely dangerous. ”

For the first time, the vibrations of the air took on a slight emotional color, and the shadow, which was deeper than the darkness, said to itself:

Charlemagne's royal family and military seem to be on guard against that guy as well, but they don't know the severity of the situation. is still fighting for power and profit. Completely ignoring the fact that V.E has unwittingly penetrated its tentacles into more fundamental realms, demagoguery, chasing vain profits, and deviating from sacred beliefs. ”

Compared with the vain "peace after death" and "heavenly paradise", people are more likely to be moved by the reality of money. It is human nature to strive for fame and fortune, to be greedy for life and fear death, and to practice asceticism and stick to faith is the choice made in the acquired environment.

Therefore, even if the country was trained by Li Lin with the chains of "money" and the whip of "strategy" to look like something outside of common sense, it would not be worth making a fuss.

"Our mission is to persuade the world to accept the fate of the Mother Goddess, and so far, nothing has gone wrong. ”

Before the Seven-Day War, it was.

But with the emergence of Li Lin, unconsciously, the wind vane named "Volkswagen" is no longer as easy to manipulate as in the past, and the more realistic and more powerful money worship trend cleverly guides the swing of the wind vane.

What would have been considered a product of the realm of delusion has now become a reality.

"Before the populace is seduced, the true purpose of that man must be grasped...... If Li Lin is a heretical believer who intends to overthrow the beliefs of my generation and change the way this world exists, even if he launches an all-out holy war, he must annihilate him. ”

"So, do you want to spy on him?"

"No...... The man was shrewd, and playing tricks on him wouldn't have any effect. There seem to be signs of movement in Charlemagne's War Department lately, and there is also a mysterious project code name - 'Valkyrie' and Li Lin often appear in the mouths of those wood-headed military aristocrats. Let those fools take the lead and take the plunge for us. ”

The shadow shook his head and asked faintly:

"I remember that the man's adopted son is studying at the National Academy of Magic, and he is a classmate of Her Royal Highness, right?"

There is no need to say anything more, the mouth respectfully answers "yes", and the head is all clear.

A sleek silver figure flashed in front of him, and the silver made the demon mink stand upright, looking up at the lord who had fallen in front of the shadow.

############

Men with swords and sticks on their shoulders shuttled and ran.

Strangely, the space is still very quiet.

After the New Year, a lingering spring breeze envelops men in ornate military uniforms and blows through the Ionic columns and unknown flowers in the flower beds. Isn't it a variety that has been perfected with a lot of time and painstaking effort, or is it a rare thing that has been transplanted from a distant and exotic country? Brick by brick is meticulously carved, characters, flowers, animals, stories – all come to life on the white stones, but how many people pay attention to the subtleties of that kind of thing?

Needless to say, the military aristocrats walking in the compound of the War Department are afraid that they are even more uninterested in appreciating this scenery.

The War Department is now in decline, not only is it overwhelmed by its old rival navy, but the newly rising Titans does not take them seriously.

The budget request was cut again and again, and the political battles in the court were repeatedly defeated, which hurt the self-esteem of the knights of the army. These aristocratic elites always considered themselves superior to the nobles and knights of other departments and branches. In the past, new knights who relied on military merit to obtain knighthoods had to be cautious in front of wealthy nobles with long bloodlines. Nowadays, even a naval major dares not to look at a senior knight of the army.

The huge gap made them hate the root cause of this phenomenon, and it was in this fertile soil that anti-V.E ideas and small groups thrived. (To be continued......)
