Face to face again, the start of the armistice talks, already a day later.

This time, it was Pope St. George who was the first to speak: "After the previous exchange, I went back to pray and reflect for a day and a night, and gained a deeper understanding of the doctrine of the true God.

All beings are true God's people, and even if there is an occasional war, it is a brotherly dispute, and as a father, he can only arbitrate as an arbiter, not as a direct participant.

To do so will only bring irreparable losses to both sides, while to the delight of our common enemy.

In order to avoid the same situation, I think we should sign a transcendent power limitation agreement to limit the unrestrained destruction of this unconventional force. ”

"If His Excellency the Pope had proposed this agreement two weeks ago, I would have been more than happy to sign it, but when you have just caused us irreparable damage and we are preparing to launch a full-scale counterattack, do you think I will still approve of this agreement?" Sean said with a cold face, "For the sake of the legitimate rights and interests of our territory, we will never promise to renounce the use of force, including extraordinary forces, to carry out unconventional military strikes. ”

Are you kidding.

Now we are beating you to the point of threatening your foundations.

Do you remember to limit supernatural powers?

If the Eternal Night Leader doesn't have the extraordinary strength to match.

If you think about it, you know that Pope St. George will definitely not propose this agreement, but will use this power in an amplified way.

And what is the concept of supernatural power?

Just himself and St. George, who can destroy a city on their own?

Or is it the magic technology that the Eternal Night Leader is getting stronger and stronger?

I believe that at their current pace, it won't be long before the Eternal Night Leader will develop weapons with more powerful destructive power, and when the time comes, they will not be able to use them even if they are self-restrained?

The compassion emanating from Pope St. George became even stronger, and he exhorted bitterly: "With a large number of extraordinary powers, the biggest victims are still those ordinary people, we must not disregard the interests of the world for our own selfishness, at least our Holy See is working for the better future of the majority of believers, not dragging them into a cruel transcendent war and becoming worthless cannon fodder." ”

"Your Excellency, please don't change concepts. Sean coldly interrupted Pope St. George's speech, "I just said that we reserve the right to use extraordinary power to carry out military strikes, I didn't say that we used extraordinary power to slaughter civilians unscrupulously, there was no before, there is no now, and there will be no in the future, our extraordinary power exists to protect, and now we are guarding the legitimate rights and interests of our territory......"

"Your Excellency said that your extraordinary power exists for protection, and you are now wantonly destroying our holy mountain, and there are countless innocent devout believers in the church, how can you explain ......it?

"Your holy mountain is the military target of our attack this time, as for the so-called killing, don't deceive yourself, don't use me to find out to you the memory image of what happened before, is it because of the many believers who died under my bombardment, or how many of them were controlled by the angel and killed in vain? I believe that your disciples should be very interested in this image. ”

"Memories do not represent the truth, and to the extent that your Excellency is not difficult to manipulate your own memories and fool others in your own dreams. ”

"Whether it's the truth, or I'm faking it, believe those civilians, naturally there is judgment, don't fool them like fools......"

Sean and St. George have started a new round of verbal warfare.

When they speak, they are very cautious, and some sensitive things, even if the facts are in front of them, they will not admit it.

The reason for this situation is naturally the fear of memory images.

If you are not careful, you will leave the other party to attack your own public opinion.

Although the composition of the two representative forces is different, as well as the ultimate goal, it is different.

But one thing is the same, and that is the importance given to civilians.

For the former, commoners are the basis for becoming believers, and where would believers come from without them?

For the latter, the commoners are the foundation on which everything is built, the guarantee of productivity, and if there are not enough civilians, how can they have the strength to confront Pope St. George?

An agreement to limit the use of supernatural powers, Sean is unlikely to sign.

But that didn't prevent him from reaching a tacit agreement with St. George on this aspect – to abstain from using supernatural powers.

Especially the despicable things such as the slaughter of the city and the assassination of high-ranking people on both sides.

This consensus is based on the fact that both sides have terrifying supernatural powers.

After all, if you use extraordinary power on your side, the other party can immediately retaliate in the same way.

Just like Sean is doing now.

The end result will be a lose-lose situation.

Don't say anything else.

As long as the two sides assassinate a few high-ranking members of the other side, they will make the other side panic and self-danger from top to bottom, and they will not have the heart to develop at all.

It's impossible for them to drop everything and stare at each other's every move.

That would only be self-defeating.

Because they also have a more powerful common enemy - Nightmares.

Unless one of them has extraordinary strength, to the extent that it crushes the other party, and before the other party can cause more damage to himself, he will blow it up alive.

That's what St. George and Sean want to do the most.

But judging by the current situation, it is clear that they cannot do this.

Both sides have their own home turf.

Neither side has the strength to form a crushing force on the other's home turf.

In the end, a tacit consensus was inevitable, and Sean had considered it before Pope St. George offered it.

The reason why Sean has an aggressive and tough posture is just to fight for more rights.

After several days of discussion, the two sides grudgingly came to a consensus that transcendent warfare must be limited.

Both sides must think carefully before using their extraordinary forces to intervene in the war.

When it is forced to be used, it should be based on deterrence, supplemented by devastating strikes, to avoid the expansion of extraordinary wars and unnecessary fatal losses on both sides.

The side that is the first to use extraordinary power to intervene in the war, regardless of the cause, should bear the primary responsibility for this extraordinary war.

The deeper meaning is simple.

Either smash the chessboard and everyone won't have to play.

Either that, or you have enough strength to crush your enemy's extraordinary power to death.

Otherwise, the supernatural power can not be used or not.

It is not so much an agreement as a rational perception of the heads of both sides.

"Now that we have come to a consensus, is it time to put an end to this pointless war?" said Pope St. George.

"I still say the same thing, since the war has been provoked, it cannot be ended in a word!" Sean said with a cold face, "We have to give an explanation to the soldiers who died in battle, to the citizens whose homes were burned down, and to our frightened people, this is our duty." ”

"Don't beat around the bush, how on earth can you agree to a truce?" St. George knew what Sean was going to do.

Unless you want to completely tear off the chessboard, there will definitely be no way to continue this battle.

Sean is now just thinking about knocking them off.

"You started the war on your own initiative and caused us irreparable damage, and you should bear the corresponding compensation. Sean finally bared his fangs.

Since there is no way to beat the Holy Aether Holy See to death with a stick like the Empire of the Undead.

Then we can only find a way to stop the loss and transfer the losses suffered in this war to the other side.

"To be more specific. Pope St. George asked with a blank face.

"I only have four conditions, as long as you agree, I will immediately lead my men to retreat.

First, His Excellency the Pope issued a public statement to the public to review the war he had provoked, and to recognize the inherent sovereignty of the Eternal Night Lords, and to return all the military materiel of the Eternal Nights Lords that you had plundered during this war.

Second, the Holy See and the Royal Court should pay the War Reparations of One Billion Crowns of the Eternal Night Army for the post-war reconstruction of Marsin and Inoco for this wrongful war.

Third, reopen the investigation into King Laurie's death, and this time we, the Commanders of the Night, must wash away the false stigma we have on our shoulders, and return the truth to the world, isn't the truth your highest doctrine?

Fourth, in view of the special situation of the Lancelot royal family, Princess Sophia has the obligation to supervise the current operation of the Lancelot royal family to prevent the loss of royal rights and wealth under the prying eyes of those who are interested. Sean made his own terms in an orderly manner.

"Why don't you grab it?" St. George had expected Sean to open his mouth.

But I didn't expect the other party's appetite to be so big, this is no longer a lion's mouth, but an out-and-out dragon's mouth.

Not only do you want money, but you also want to put your hand on the Lancelot royal family again.

"Robbery is an immoral thing, and we are now defending our legitimate rights and interests. Sean is serious on the surface, but secretly said in his heart, the open robbery is not so fast, as we all know, war is the easiest business to make people rich overnight.

"The conditions offered by Your Excellency Lord are too unrealistic. ”

Sean paid the price on the spot, and Pope St. George of course paid it back on the spot.

"First of all, I am the Pope of the Holy See, not the King of the New Court, and I have no way to give you any promises in the territory.

Secondly, we are destroying two war fortresses, not two cities with a large number of ordinary citizens and a lot of trade, where do we need a billion to rebuild? If we only repair the original foundation, I believe that with the energy of your Eternal Night Commanders, 20 million per city is enough.

In order to demonstrate our sincerity, the Holy See is willing to give 50 million to compensate you for your losses.

As for the return of equipment, there is no problem, as long as Your Excellency agrees to a truce, I will immediately discuss this matter with Queen Enid and return your equipment as soon as possible.

As for reopening the investigation into King Lowry's accidental death, this matter is somewhat unrealistic.

After all, King Laurie has been dead for three years, and even the griffin he was riding at that time was sentenced to death three years ago and executed on the spot, and now it has long since turned into a pile of dry bones, and the scene has been completely destroyed, how to re-investigate?

What's more, the accidental death of His Majesty King Laurie had already been investigated in detail at that time, and the cause and effect were very clear.

It was a flight accident, the result of His Majesty's drunken griffin riding without proper safety precautions.

This has always been a public conclusion on the side of the royal court.

I have heard all those rumors about Lady Sophia.

It was all the speculation of ordinary civilians, and it was not recognized by the public, and His Excellency did not need to take it seriously.

In this matter, I endorse the official report.

In order to take a stand, I would like to publicly stand in solidarity with Lady Sophia and strongly condemn those who spread rumors.

As for Madame Sophia's supervision of the royal family, it is also unrealistic.

Not to mention that the current royal court is not the original royal family, and the current Lady Sophia is not the former Princess Sophia, it is difficult for her to sit in an objective and fair perspective, so where can justice come from?

And this matter belongs to the royal court, and it is up to Queen Enid and His Excellency the Prince Regent to decide.

I am also unable to make a commitment to Your Excellency in this matter. ”

St. George's point-by-point rebuttal.

Although it is not a complete denial of Sean's conditions, it is similar.

One billion war reparations became fifty million, only one-twentieth of what Sean demanded.

The reopening of the investigation into King Laurie's violent death turned into a verbal solidarity, and he was the biggest rumor-monger behind the scenes, consciously pouring sewage on Sophielia.

They are willing to return the military equipment they have taken from the leaders of the Eternal Night.

But according to what St. George just said, there needs to be a consultation with Queen Enid.

This consultation will not be carried out in the Year of the Monkey before it can be implemented.

Not to mention that it will take three or two years, even if it is returned in three or five months, it will be enough for their craftsmen to think it through and copy the corresponding technology.

After all, unlike when the Eternal Night Warlord had just risen, all kinds of craftsmen, especially high-end craftsmen, were relatively scarce.

As the various new weapons of the Eternal Night Military Territory began to exert their power, the status of craftsmen in various territories has risen, and they have set up their own arsenals, imitation of imitation, and research and development.

In the hands of the royal court and the Holy See, they have mastered their own large-scale new arsenals, which have been engaged in the imitation research and development of artillery for many years and have certain experience.

Artillery is based on the same principle as firearms, and if there is a sample, it is easier to imitate it by plagiarizing it directly.

The excuse is even more high-sounding.

He is only a pope, and he cannot make decisions on behalf of the royal court at will.

You now remember that you were only here for the Pope, and that when you sent out the Eternal Night Army, you didn't see them consult with the royal court.

Basically, it was to inform the subordinate units and report to the order, which was directly issued by the Holy See, and only then did the Eternal Night Army Leader be caught off guard.

If the order was given by the royal court, it is estimated that they had just made a decision, and the Eternal Night Army Leader would have already received the news and reacted.
