To be honest, is this person so unabashed?
Zhou Li, who had long been mixed into the crowd and observing everything that happened on the field, fell into deep doubts.
You could say he is from the Church of War, he looks so smart among a bunch of idiots. But if you want to say that he is a spy, then he is outrageously stupid if he is in the spy camp. After all, the biggest characteristic of a spy is that he is ordinary. Even among a bunch of retarded people, you have to act as the most normal retarded person. And this person named Jason is so normal in so many wisdoms, which is an insult to the word spy.
Now Zhou Li began to wonder if this was Jason's trick. What if they were on the fifth floor?
Shaking his head to throw away this ridiculous idea, Zhou Li watched the excitement with Eluma with relish.
At this time, Jason's face was smiling but not smiling, which made people feel very uncomfortable. The onlookers didn't know what was going on. They just felt that the strong man deserved a beating, while the man with white hair and scars on his face was more like a victim.
Then Geralost spoke.
"Apologize?"
The old demon hunter's face was shrouded in the shadow of his hood, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.
"Yes."
Jason nodded and said with a sly smile, "You ridiculed my friend. I think you should apologize."
He looked at Geralost in front of him with a touch of expectation in his eyes, as if he was expecting Geralost to do something. Of course, he is also sure of victory.
Jason investigated the demon hunter in front of him. He was an honest fool who was willing to sacrifice for others. His pride did not allow him to apologize.
"sorry."
Then Gerost apologized.
The kind who is very sincere, the kind who can't find any fault even if you pick a few eggs.
well?
Not to mention Jason, even the guard was stunned.
"I'm sorry that I hurt you with my unscrupulous words. I can't help it."
As if apologizing wasn't enough, Jeslot then apologized.
This time, the guard couldn't stand it anymore. He buckled his head, and after tutting, his expression became a little uneasy. He could only soften his tone a little, "No, you... it's nothing actually. I'm chasing you too." It’s so far away, so it’s not really a big problem.”
Is this how you apologize?
Jason's eyes were about to pop out of his head at this moment. He never expected that Gerost would actually apologize so frankly and sincerely, which made Jason feel confused for a moment.
Aren't you a witcher? How could a lonely witcher apologize to others so easily?
In fact, Jason didn't know that the old demon hunter had long wanted to apologize.
As a demon hunter, Gerost has seen a lot of ups and downs and come into contact with a lot of people of all kinds, so his moral bottom line can be flexibly moved. Even if the guard at that time sounded impatient, Gerost would find an excuse for himself and then punch the other person, completing the task with peace of mind.
But the problem is, this guard is too friendly, so friendly that Gerost can't bear to humiliate him with words like thin dog. At that time, the guard's description of his poverty also moved Gerost's heart of compassion. If he hadn't been on a mission, he really wouldn't have wanted to take the initiative to cause trouble and insult the other party.
He was so poor that he didn't even have any furniture. He showed the utmost kindness to strangers and reminded himself to pay attention to safety when collecting debts.
Really, Gerost felt that if he couldn't apologize to the guard today, he would have to sit up and slap himself twice while sleeping tonight, and be hit hard on the head by the threshold of morality.
This time, Jason gave himself a step, a step to apologize, which made Gerost ignore Jason's sinister smile and even said something to Jason.
Thank you.
Jason, who was confused, watched Gerost walk away contentedly, without even having time to say what he wanted to say. Zhou Li also left the market with Eluma with a happy expression on his face, leaving Jason confused and messy in the wind.
Wait, what am I going to do?
Looking at Gerost's retreating back, Jason began to use his intelligent brain to think about his original purpose.
Yes, anger Gerost and make him kill him.
It failed...
God, why on earth did you issue this decree?
****************************
In the Pope's office of the Church of Elements, Bai Qin rubbed his eyebrows and processed the documents in front of him with a tired look.
As the leader of the Church of Elements, this twenty-four-year-old girl has an incredibly heavy burden. This is the result of Bai Qin consciously dividing some areas that he is not good at. Bai Qin will never forget the despair she felt when faced with a mountain of documents the day after becoming pope.
And now, the Church of Elements is being coerced by Twelve Hours to become hostile to Tarik. In fact, when this proposal was initially proposed within Twelve Hours, it was not welcomed by the church, and was even hostile to the proposer. Because Twelve Hours is not stupid, they can see Tariq's dependence on Twelve Hours, and they can also see the determination of Tarik's King Herinin. They had no doubt that if Herinen was given a chance, he would even choose to cut off most of Tarik's economic lifeline to gain a chance to escape the Twelve Hours.
At this time, Twelve Minutes personally gave this opportunity to Tariq.
This proposal was originally proposed by Liras of the Life Church. This famous honest man really surprised everyone by making such a radical proposal. During the voting, Liras also went out of his way and reminded everyone with very cold words. It was precisely because of this sentence that he changed the minds of those popes who wanted to veto this proposal.
“Never forget who the church really serves.”
This sentence awakened those popes who wanted to veto the proposal. They did not take a position immediately, but chose to delay the voting time of this proposal. Everyone, including Bai Qin's deputy at the time, returned to their church and held a prayer.
The content of the prayer is this proposal.
Bai Qin, who was still supporting Zhou Li at that time, didn't know about this. When she came back, the Church of Elements had already begun to impose sanctions on Tarik. At first, Bai Qin was very dissatisfied with the behavior of his deputy, thinking that he was seeking power and deliberately going against her.
Then she heard the answer she least expected to hear.
"The gods acquiesced."
Bai Qin still remembers the tired and painful look in the deputy's eyes, "I have no choice."
Only then did Bai Qin remember that unlike herself who was an orphan, the middle-aged man in front of her had his own family, with a wife, children and parents. And his family is located in the middle of Mosk in Tariq.
In fact, the people who were most tormented by the adoption of the proposal were these believers who had concerns about Tariq. Bai Qin was once very puzzled as to why the gods would acquiesce to this proposal, a proposal that would hurt both sides.
Today Zhou Li found her and reminded her that a mysterious organization was behind the confrontation with Tariq. This also made Bai Qin wake up. She suddenly thought, if the gods really wanted to destroy Tarik, why not just give the order directly, but choose to acquiesce to a proposal?
I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out at all.
The girl, who was not good at the twists and turns of politics and theocracy, held her head in pain and began to roll slightly on the table. For a pope who studies forms, studying these things can literally kill Baiqin for half his life. This is the purest form of torture.
"Actually, there is a possibility."
At this time, a soft and delicate voice sounded from the side. Bai Qin raised her head. In front of her was her best friend, the Pope of Emotional Church - Anya.
"What?"
Bai Qin stood up and asked, "Xiaoya, what did you just say?"
"Our gods have chosen to acquiesce. Maybe there is another possibility."
Anya walked to Bai Qin's side, and gently covered Bai Qin's forehead with her small white jade hands. The coolness in her palm made Bai Qin's originally chaotic mind begin to clear up, "They are just doing this."
An experiment. "
"experiment?"
Bai Qin was a little puzzled. Although this friend of his looked weak and weak, he was very shy to others. But Bai Qin knew that his friend was a genius when it came to understanding people's hearts. Otherwise, the Church of Emotions would not be able to do what even the Church of Life has done - have no enemies.
The Emotional Church is a church with a very low sense of existence but an excellent reputation. The church's only external business dealings are paid psychological consultations, but this psychological consultation often charges not money, but other people's negative emotions. In a sense, the emotional church is pure Bodhisattva. But only a very few people know that the Emotional Church actually has a lot of business activities. Many hospitals and schools employ their people, but they rarely engage in external activities in the way of the Emotional Church.
In fact, the church of emotions had a bad reputation a long time ago. After all, no one would remain rational in the face of a church that can control people's hearts. The reversal of the reputation of the Emotional Church began after this weak and fragile little girl became the pope.
"Yes, an experiment."
The girl gently massaged her friend's temples, and her voice was as refreshing as a clear spring. "The gods can't do it themselves, and they don't want to dirty their hands, but they still want to conduct this experiment. At this moment, a group of idiots started on their own Experiment, tell me, what would the gods think?"
Baiqin was silent.
"I have a very bad feeling about it."
After a long time, Bai Qin closed her eyes and said quietly: "I feel that our life will not be peaceful."
"yes."
Anya sighed softly, her tone full of helplessness, "Pope, Pope, we are all just members of the church. Our power comes from Him and is controlled by Him. How pitiful."
"You think it's not good for us to discuss gods like this?"
Bai Qin asked a little weirdly. Anya smiled and said sadly, "Yeah, it's really not good."
"But, how long has it been since they saw us?"
*******************************
"Actually, I have always had a suspicion."
In Herinin's office, Zhou Li led Eluma into slowly. He looked at the old man who was handling the Ministry of Commerce's proposal and said, "I suspect that this farce has little to do with God."
"I think so too."
Putting down the pen in his hand, Herinen raised his head, nodded and said, "The thunder is loud and the raindrops are light. This is the biggest problem with this attack."
"I don't believe that the gods can be so stupid, or that Twelve Hours is equally stupid. They actually think that relying on commerce can plunge the country of Tarik into chaos."
Zhou Li took out two chairs and sat side by side with Eluma. Eluma didn't eat anymore at this time, but sat upright on the chair, her eyes a little wandering.
"My men just met a man."
Zhou Li repeated what happened between Jason and Gerost to Herining in concise language. After listening to Zhou Li's words, Herining fell into deep thought.
"He's irritating Geralost."
After a moment, Herinen said: "This guy named Jason wants to force you out."
"But you can also see that this guy isn't just trying to force me out."
Zhou Li looked at Herinin and said in a deep voice: "If Gerost hadn't disrupted his thoughts, he wanted to completely anger Gerost and make Gerost take action. I don't know that he wanted to kill Gerost. Lost still has other motives, but the game he set up is very hasty."
"Yes, this is also a question I don't understand."
Herinen nodded and said calmly: "The decision made at the twelve o'clock was too hasty. At that time, you and Tia had already entered the west, and nothing they could do could stop you. They obviously have more. It’s time to make a more perfect plan, instead of letting a life church who is least good at fighting trade wars be the vanguard and then use various business methods to
Duan comes to attack Tariq. "
"The Twelve Hours and the gods will understand that Tariq is not a country that can be defeated by commercial means."
Zhou Li frowned and said in a deep voice: "If it is Yingnan, we can indeed effectively attack them through business and legal channels, because the ruling class headed by an interest group values interests and wealth. But Tali It's different. As a king, you can't even get out 10,000 gold coins privately. Most of the power in this country is in the hands of other classes of people, and the violent institutions, the army and the police do not have any commercial elements in it. So no matter what, you can resolve this dispute through violent means."
"That's right."
Herinin nodded and agreed with Zhou Li's point of view, "You and I can issue a wartime alert order at any time. According to the Supreme Law, even if there is no war, as long as more than half of the votes can be obtained, or the Lord Protector himself issues an order, the Tower Tariq has unconditionally implemented a state of wartime alert. All assets are temporarily nationalized, and all wealth in Tariq is allocated by the government, and resources are distributed uniformly and centrally."
"As long as Twelve Quarters does something that exceeds expectations, I will directly issue this order. Obviously, Tariq is not afraid of Twelve Quarters at all in fighting a business war."
"so."
Zhou Li looked at Herinen with a deep meaning in his eyes, "This attack is probably an experiment."
"A drill."
