"It's finally here! But it was you, Lord Lepida. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info"In Marshal Mauser's mansion, Stein met Lepida. The two can be said to have known each other for a long time, but it is obvious that the two were not in harmony before.

"There's no need to call me that, I'm just your equal. This is an order of the Holy See, and I have nothing to do. For me, it's just 100% execution, that's all. Lepida replied coldly.

In fact, factional strife has always existed in the Inquisition and throughout the Holy See. This was true of the Pope, the Cardinal, the Flag Bearer, and the Princes of Rome. They are all trying to grow their power, and although their common interest is to expand the influence and control of the Holy See, this does not affect their rivalry in the slightest.

As one cardinal said, it is not the cross that keeps the Holy See alive, but the sword in the hand. After a hundred years of rising, the cardinal archbishops have long been very pragmatic, and they will never lose their opportunities because of those dogmas, which is why the sword and the cross coexist in the Church. From top to bottom, the whole Holy Church is happy to see this kind of competition, and only in this way can the consciousness of crisis keep the whole state apparatus running. This is why the Holy See was able to grow step by step with its limited resources, eventually bringing the Holy Roman Empire to its knees and the new Roman Empire to collapse.

"But I remember that the man I sent told you to come to Warsaw according to my plan, and you didn't." Originally, the subordinates they had sent over had already arranged a route into Warsaw, after all, they must not leak the news, not for fear of being known by the Novgorodians, but to prevent the Western countries from knowing that the Holy See had intervened in Poland, especially this time on sensitive issues involving the Polish throne. If it is too open-minded and seized by the Western powers, it is likely to cause a diplomatic storm, which the bishops of the pivotal opportunity do not want to see.

"What's wrong with that? I didn't reveal my identity when I entered Warsaw. Lebida said coldly, he had already hidden his identity when he came to Poland, and from the outward appearance they were just a group of priests.

Looking at the two of them, anyone could see the opposition between them, but they didn't expect the Holy See to make such a low-level mistake. Marshal Mauser couldn't help but frown.

"You two, since this is already the case, let's talk about our plan! I think the existence that can control the ancient mecha is probably the most important concern right now, isn't it? The old man's temperament was completely different from the usual wide and harmonious, and at this time he was also wearing a neat military uniform. The cooperation with the Holy See was already very unpleasant for him, and he paid a great price to deal with Consité Dante, but the other party did not take Poland seriously at all.

"You don't have to worry about this, but the enemies of the Holy Church can't escape punishment." Stein said, glancing at Marshal Mauser.

"But is it up to you?" Marquis Polka, Marquis of Mauser's side, asked. They waited for days, and all they had to wait for was the men of so many men that Lepida had brought with them. He really didn't see any need to postpone his plan for so long because of them.

"Don't worry. They were all powerful enough knights, and although they were only dressed as priests, they were all strong enough to take charge of themselves, and such a presence made it easy to destroy the Novgorodians. Lepida said that although all the people in the Inquisition gained power and some lost power, it was certain that they were all born warriors, even if they were not as good as the elite knights of the Holy See, their combat power was not comparable to ordinary people, let alone the Rus' who were regarded by them as the edge of civilization.

"Are you going to use mechas...... you guys" heard the intention from the other party's tone, but the faces of several princes changed suddenly. They never expected that the other party would want to do this.

"It can't be!" They never expected the Holy See to want to do this, which they really didn't expect.

"Is there something that can't be done?" However, Stein and Lepida asked rhetorically at the same time.

"Do you know where this is? This is Warsaw, the heart of Poland, don't you know how much damage you can do if you use mechs here? "Even if they were bent on eliminating the threat of Consité Dante, they were not prepared to use such means. The destructive power of the mecha can be imagined, but it is impossible to use it in a densely populated city, otherwise it will cause an incalculable disaster! If this is the case, they themselves will be fine, why bother to resort to the power of the Holy See.

But Stein's face showed a mockery, "The person who can control the ancient mecha is not so stupid, and it is impossible to defeat him if he relies on conventional forces. Originally, Stein was also dismissive of Constance Dante, but what changed him was an investigation report on Constance Dante, which was only an unintentional move before, but immediately made Stein serious.

The young man who suddenly appeared in Rose was not that simple at all, which made Stein nervous. The elimination of the main mechs of the Teutonic Knights and the forced withdrawal of the Duchy of Moscow and the Kingdom of Sweden were superficially watery, but Stein could see the anomaly.

The reason is so simple, that is, the past of Consdé Dante, that is, everything that appeared in Novgorod three years ago and then advances is completely lost.

As if he appeared out of thin air, such a person is the most feared because he is completely unknown.

"I think I've already spoken about this with you, Your Excellency, Marshal!" Stein turned his gaze to Field Marshal Mauser, and asked with some subtlety in his eyes.

In fact, he looked down on this old man in his heart, and at the same time he was afraid that he had such terrifying courage.

In any case, Marshal Mauser had already made up his mind to completely exterminate the Novgorodians at the expense of the entire block, and that would leave only a scorched earth, which could be excused by the accident, even if questioned and suspected by other countries. Stein also had to "admire" the "determination" of the other party, and if he was on the opposite side, such an enemy was indeed terrifying.

"That's true." Marshal Mauser nodded and did not deny it, he did not tell the other princes that the entire neighborhood where Constance Dante lived belonged to the old city, and the population density there was relatively not small, and the reason why he chose this was because the terrain there was most suitable for mecha combat.

"But if Your Excellency Marshal's matter is known to others, it may cause an incalculable price!" Looking at each other, the Marquis of Polka and other princes were shocked, if that was the case, the entire neighborhood where Cons Dante was located would be buried with him, and the price would inevitably be too great. It's not just human life, if it is known, these ruling nobles are likely to be attacked by local lords, and under the pressure of this kind of public opinion, they don't dare to take this risk at all.

However, Marshal Mauser shook his head and said: "You don't understand that he is dangerous at all, and now even if it costs a great price, I must eliminate that person." There was a coldness in the eyes of this old man, and that kind of look suddenly made the other princes dare not make a sound, it was the breath of killing, and they saw the iron-blooded marshal who made the enemy fearful.

"Then it would be okay to discuss the plan now! Marshal. At this time, Stein smiled and said to Marshal Mauser. (To be continued.) )
