Public trial?You deserve it too!

"Then this round, count me as a loser!"

No frustration, no resentment, no anger.

Claude happily announced his defeat.

【Teacher, there is no need to be so harsh on yourself. You have already reached the limit of what you could do at that time, and judging from the results you can obtain in the future, it can be said to be almost perfect...】

"However, my layout was resolved—no, it wasn't just resolved, it should be that the other party took advantage of the bureau I set up, and then removed all possible adverse effects of this bureau on the Theocracy and kept it as part of his layout .”

Claude's voice still didn't show any frustration or loss, but instead gave the system a very pleasant opportunity to teach.

"That's why I'm so excited...cough cough, this is the real reason why I admit that I lost this game-I said that the layout in the dark and the layout in the light are two completely different situations , This is why I have been emphasizing the importance of staying in the dark and mastering the upper hand."

"The current situation is that I am in a place where the opponent can't see at all, and I am going to use a game to break the opponent's game on the bright side-and then fail, a big defeat, not only did not break the opposite game, but Being used by the other side, it made my situation even more unbreakable."

There are still some words that Claude didn't say.

The helm of the Theocracy is not what I thought before, he is a guy who only knows how to conspire. This time, the other party is still able to deal with emergencies with ease, which shows that he also likes to prepare a lot of spares. People who plan, and these plans are very perfect, and can be used immediately to deal with unexpected situations-just like yourself!

So he didn't regret this failure at all.

"That's why I conceded defeat in this round—because people never thought that this was a round that was deliberately aimed at him. They took advantage of the trend and gave me a one-turn offensive. I still have nothing to do with this situation. What do you call losing?"

[But this time is also a win-win... After all, the business alliance is better defeated, isn't it? 】

"Win a fart, lose shit, the gains from the business alliance can only be regarded as simple waste recycling at best-but the other party's handling methods actually represent that I have fallen into a huge disadvantage. "

Claude spread his hands and said self-deprecatingly.

"Because if the Theocracy knows the emperor's situation, he must also know that no matter whether he instigates the rebellion of Augustus or the rebellion of the great nobles, it is absolutely impossible for the emperor to change his original plan—— So the things he arranged, the ultimate goal after these conflicts broke out, is not at all to let the empire take them first!"

[Then what are they for? 】

"If I could know, I don't need to say that I'm at a huge disadvantage."

Claude sighed.

"This is different from the previous few times. The Theocracy is not playing tricks this time. If you don't care about it, it will really kill you-after all, this is the layout that really affects the direction of the entire continental war. It's a pity. , but the Imperial Intelligence Bureau is at this juncture...huh?"

Claude lowered his voice.

【teacher? 】

"The three branches of the Imperial Intelligence Bureau have been hacked, and the nobles have also been hacked. It stands to reason that the Theocracy's information on the empire should have been emptied of most of it - it is impossible and unnecessary for them to maintain the three branches and theirs in the empire at the same time. Your own intelligence network, this is a boring and extremely expensive thing, unless..."

[Unless they already knew that the Three Divisions and the great nobles were on the emperor's death list—in that case, they would definitely prepare an additional intelligence network! 】

"...So, the Imperial Intelligence Bureau will be cleaned up at this time, and it should be within their expectations. After all, it is easy to reason after knowing the situation on the emperor's side...And if This is also in the Theocracy's plan... so where is that information network, and how is it arranged?"

Rao is using Claude's wise plan, and now I only feel a bit of a headache. The Theocracy's intelligence network in the empire is like cockroaches. Every time you see one, it means that there are ten more where you can't see— - The problem is you can't fucking see!

"...If I have to say what I have gained from this failure, probably the only gain is that I understand the other party's means and abilities--I underestimated him a little before, the other party is not like me, but really I have learned the essence, it seems that my senior is good at teaching students, and I really taught him."

【...I'm sure I can also become a teacher. 】

Claude didn't speak, but just glanced at the other party in disgust.

[You, you, you... what do you mean! 】

The knight had no intention of explaining.

After all, from the previous emperor's short history science, he knew that the pope of the Theocracy did not become a teacher until after the death of the first pope, so now it seems that the other party really became a teacher in the way he expected.

As for this in my head...

Now Claude is [-]% sure that this system is really a fool... So my previous expectations and the second declaration buried in my mind are all winking for the blind— —This guy can't be that kind of person at all.

"Tsk, suddenly I don't want to teach you."

【Why?Hey hey!Why! 】

Tsk, that's getting your attention away.

Claude, who was very interested in the layout of the Theocracy, actually began to feel a kind of depression from the bottom of his heart.

"...Just kidding—it's just that you have to grow up quickly. I'm a little worried. Is it a good thing or a bad thing for me to teach you all the time? Graduation thesis or something, after all, after the internship Writing is the most rewarding."

【...】

Claude didn't say much anymore, but walked to the residence arranged by the Theocracy together with Livière in silence.

--------------------------------------------------

The days in the Vatican were somewhat lacklustre, Georgi and Randolph were running around outside the city, and Claude could only stay in the city, waiting for the talks to end-he was only one of the envoys, and he was in charge of the least controversial and things to discuss.

So Claude was entrusted with the responsibility from the beginning [If the two sides are arguing and no unified opinion can be reached, then please come forward to discuss this matter that will surely lead to cooperation].

It's just a small negotiation skill, and Claude of course obeys the arrangement.

So he seemed to be extremely idle, he didn't even bring him to the negotiation venue, and just wandered around the Vatican all day long.

Oh, it's not that he doesn't really do nothing, for example, he also applied for an audience with the Pope. After all, he is still very interested in the current state of the Pope, so he plans to take the system to scan it.

Then it was rejected without any surprise, with the excuse that the Pope was recovering from illness and the mission was not even received.

No, no, anyway, the system scans a radius of ten kilometers, so Claude let the system directly fill up the scan, and took the other party to wander around the Vatican all day long. Get lucky and find out where the Pope is.

Then something unexpected happened.

The entire Vatican was scanned, and even after the map was perfectly drawn and marked, Claude still didn't find out where the Pope was.

Because in the entire Vatican, the system did not scan out the situation of more than a dozen souls fluctuating Obale like the emperor who was standing beside Augustus at that time.

"The Pope is not in the Vatican?"

Claude rubbed his chin with a delicate expression.

It is not impossible. After all, the meaning of the invitation initiated by the Holy State this time has long been clarified. It is normal that the Pope does not stay in the Vatican. After all, it is not an important situation. It is the correct way to go out for a cruise to calm people's hearts.

So Claude didn't care. After all, after the intelligence bureau disappeared, the empire really had a black eye on the Theocracy. Even if the Pope was touring somewhere in the Theocracy, he couldn't get any news from his side— - There is no such thing as newspapers in the Theocracy, after all, what they do is to fool the people, rather than enlightening people's wisdom like the empire.

In short, in the next day, Claude highlighted a fish, but finally had the opportunity to go out for a stroll, but looking at a certain cardinal who followed him closely, the knight was still a little hard to understand.

If you follow him, just follow him, why did you send this big man to follow you closely?

"Cardinal Livière, it seems that you have been busy recently."

"No, no, it's not as free as Your Excellency Claude's. It's just that I'm free today and I want to walk around to relax. Your Excellency has seen the situation in the Holy City. It's really not suitable for relaxation. Of course, I have to go outside the city. Let's go, I just saw Your Excellency Claude, and want to be a companion together, won't your Excellency be unwilling?"

Livière is really a master at pretending to be confused, and he understood the sentence of not hitting the smiling face with his hand.

"So that's the case. Is Your Excellency Bishop free tomorrow?"

Claude asked lightly.

"That naturally depends on whether the Pope has any new tasks for me."

Liviere said with a smile.

"Oh? I heard that His Majesty the Pope is sick, so he doesn't see anyone else?"

"Knight Claude doesn't believe in the holy religion, so he is naturally an outsider, but I am a devout believer. If you have anything to order, I will naturally do it."

Claude understood, that is, this guy must follow him.

It's still exposed... It's not a surprise. After all, I have been in the limelight in the imperial capital for the past few years. Naturally, I will be studied under the microscope, except for Shire. Apart from the weirdness, other things can be seen to be a little strange as long as they are repeated and carefully scrutinized.

Rather, if he hasn't been ranked on the Jiao Nation's side now, then it's impossible for him to miss a game in the last game.

"After I came to the Theocracy, Cardinal Livière has always been my guide, leading me here and there. I wonder if you can continue to guide me now?"

Claude asked "politely".

"Naturally, naturally, Your Excellency Claude is a distinguished guest, and the Theocracy can't neglect it. Although I don't come here often, I can still explain some famous places to you."

The Livière line didn't find the yin and yang in Claude's words at all, and he still had a smile on his face.

"Then please His Excellency the Cardinal."

Claude finally smiled.

"As an imperial person, I have never known what a slave is like. I heard that there are a lot of slaves in the country. I don't know how you did it. Can you please take me to the Get to know each other?"

Livière didn't even frown when facing Claude's words, as if he had only had this face.

"Hahaha, Your Excellency Claude, you are really joking. There are only the Lamb of God and the servants of God in the church. Everyone is willing to sacrifice themselves for the holy religion and God. How can there be any slaves?"

"Yes, yes, yes! This is what I want to see!"

Claude nodded again and again, looking extremely surprised.

The Burning World: Chapter 254 Questions and Answers

Question [-]: Will the system become a girl?

A: Is this still an interrogative sentence even now (laughs).

-

Question [-]: When will the keyboard move by itself?

Answer: I just asked about my keyboard, and she said it was too hot to move it.

-

Question three: about dwarves.

A: There are quite a few people asking this question, so let's focus on answering it.

The dwarves do not border the empire, or they used to be bordered, but they are separated by the Theocracy and Wallachia, and I said in Chapter 120 that the dwarves have stood in line as early as thousands of years ago, and they are absolutely loyal to the first generation The Pope's is also a force that has been fighting demons long before the Empire.

The currently available follow-up information is that there are also dwarves in the empire, which is why the empire has never publicly promoted dwarves and kept information on paper documents-a very loyal but limited race against chaos (and elves), There is no need to deliberately project a racial image.

Because the current characteristic of the empire is extreme xenophobia, orcs and elves have been promoted for thousands of years. If dwarves are also put on the bright side, then the national spirit and internal propaganda of the empire will be more embarrassing.

There will be a chapter related to dwarves soon, and it will be written in detail.

-

Question [-]: Regarding the Constantine Front.

Answer: At the same time, I borrowed from Warhammer and Cthulhu. The main reason is that I don't want to write the four peddlers beep beep beep, otherwise the protagonist would have become the best choice for Khorne and Tzeentch.

Pervert?Crazy is trying every means to insult Claude.

-

Question [-]: Harem?

Answer: The previous Q&A chapter has answered it.

-

Question [-]: Will the Church backstab the Empire?

Answer: The word backstab is generally used between allies. The Theocracy and the Empire are not allies - Constantine's side is a racial war, which has nothing to do with selfishness.

-

Question [-]: Will the protagonist become an emperor or a Grand Duke of Wallachia?

Answer: None.

-

Question [-]: The death of the previous empress and the control of the emperor by the first emperor.

A: The previous generation of queens has no role to play, it's just a setting.The former emperors would not forcefully control the present.

To be reasonable, the next generation of crown princes is basically selected by them with the help of Zhang Yan—to take a step back, even if there is an emperor who can hide it from all of them, is it true that the purpose of being in power is to mess up the empire?

-

Question [-]: After this book is finished, will you write a sequel to the same world line, or other world lines?

Answer: There are no more stories in this world, and there is nothing to write.

The prequel is just an outline of Long Aotian's cool essay, just by reading the descriptions of the last few chapters, you know it?That's why I chose to write this book.

... I feel a little regretful about it. I think the books on the Hedgehog Cat List are basically the same as the prequels. Maybe it will be better if it is written as a cool novel.

Speaking of which, I changed the emperor into a female emperor, and if I was younger, I also replaced Ludwig with a female, unmarried, and I feel like I can be on the list.

The postings and subscriptions of the strategy chapter and the Baixue chapter are not in the same order of magnitude (tears).

As the person who finally decided to burn his brain to write this book...
