Chapter 246 Churchill's Doubts (Continued, another chapter will be written in the evening)

As an "emerging" religious force, it has been ten years since the birth of Sephirothism, a religion with "divine magic", capital and backing, which has developed extremely rapidly in Europe, especially in Western Europe. In addition to being cut off by the English Channel, and the fact that the Protestant forces were strictly guarding the Sephirothians in Britain and even using official forces to interfere with their missionary work, the missionary work of the Sephirothians in Britain was greatly restricted.

The British intelligence department paid attention to this evil (crab) cult organization that suddenly appeared in Germany very early, and sent agents to conduct covert investigations on many occasions.

However, the results of the investigation were not unexpected, and the agent investigating the matter replied that the organizer of this religion was an excellent magician, who was good at light and shadow magic, and had obtained a lot of relevant evidence.

As a result, the British government relaxed its investigation of the religious group and only banned its spread in the UK.

But with Hitler's rise to power and the events in China, more and more events have shown that Sephiroism is closely related to a series of events in Germany and China. Hitler's rise to power was inseparable from the support of this religion, and now Sephiroslavism has become almost the state religion in Germany. Under the deliberate suppression of the authorities, the development of other religious forces was strictly suppressed, and the Pope of Burning Tigan fell out with Germany. And behind the events in China, the so-called "Xuanwu Sect" of the Sephiroth Sect, which is inextricably linked, is needless to say.

After restarting to pay attention to the Sephiroth cult, the British government's intelligence agents were able to obtain more information under investigation. It's just that the content of this information, like the "40,000-ton Shane-class", is often so absurd that it "violates" common sense and makes people unbelievable.

For example, Sephirothism is a bitheistic religion, and the two "gods" who can appear and disappear out of thin air are very difficult for people in this era to accept - if this is true, then what should be done with the "God" who never "appears" in the world? If you really believe this, the consequence is that those who believe in it will become their believers. It's like the growing number of adherents of the religion on the continent today.

That's all there is to this kind of religious nervousness. Before Hitler was revealed, the whole of Europe thought he was a nervous madman. After the Saphiroth Church flourished in Germany, Germany became more and more of a "nervous" country, especially when warships were launched. There are always some monster events to "attract popularity".

At that time, the British press ridiculed that "the European tradition is in Germany - the tradition of the Middle Ages". Germany is becoming more and more like a religious country.

When the construction of two ships of the Shane class began. "Myths" and legends about these two warships are constantly being heard.

In the tavern near the shipyard where the two Shane-class battleships were built, the shipyard workers could always be heard bragging after drinking enough beer, "The two ships are blessed by the gods and blessed with divine magic." When laying the keel, there is no need for either riveting or welding".

This is only a limited "bragging", and there are more exaggerated claims, such as the keel girder of the enchanted Shane sister ship, which can be raised by a worker with one hand. In addition, these two ships can run up to forty knots lightly, and can even dive and so on.

The number of workers directly involved in the construction of a large warship of tens of thousands of tons is hundreds, thousands. From the very beginning, it was difficult for Lin Han and Hannah to keep the process completely secret. It is impossible not to pass on the non-human means that appeared in the construction of ships.

So according to Lin Han's idea, then go the other way.

It is not the wisest way to hide the pockmarked seeds on the face and apply grease and powder. The best way is to put your face under a strong searchlight, everyone's eyes are so illuminated by the searchlight that they can't open it, how can you see those pockmarks? Another way is to ask this pockmarked person to paint a Peking Opera mask and sing on stage, and with a wipe of colorful ink, he can't see any pockmarks.

During the construction of the two ships in Scharn, the Germans used this method in terms of secrecy: to muddy the waters. It is not easy to keep the secret of keel integration, so they are mixed together in a more outrageous statement and deliberately publicized to the outside world, while everyone denies those outrageous statements, it also affects the pond fish and denies the "truth of keel integration" together.

This method is similar to the previous method of secrecy about the true abilities of the Shane sisters, and in the past, when the Saphiroth religion was spreading, it was also used in a similar way, mixing the real and the false, in order to hide the fact that their "gods" were "true gods". Over the past few years, British intelligence has been bewildered by this tactic.

Churchill summoned MI5 men and told them to gather more information about the Saphirothism and to intensify their infiltration of the religion. On the one hand, it was to prevent the influence of the German Sephiroth cult in England to spy on them, but on the other hand, he began to believe the "outrageous" claims.

The gods, probably on earth, are on the side of the Germans and the Chinese.

These are the words that Churchill did not dare to say to the Minister of Intelligence.

In recent years, the increasingly high-profile appearance of the Sephiroth Sect, as well as the various intelligence and rumors collected by the British intelligence services from all sides, have made Churchill faintly feel that there is indeed a special force that is secretly influencing the politics of various countries, and this force is on the opposite side of the British Empire.

The first person to make Churchill suspicious was Lin Han, who stood at the foreground and performed the most arrogantly. Lin Han's non-human "force value" has always been a difficult problem for medical scientists in various countries to solve. In Lin Han's case, the legend that he is the "reincarnation of a god" has also been flourishing, but he himself has never admitted this.

And Germany, which is separated from the British Channel, also has a similar "storage zĂ i". Lin Han and Hannah influenced and manipulated the two countries of China and Germany, and the influence of the two became more and more great, and it was only a matter of time before they were "noticed".

After seeing off the Minister of Intelligence, Churchill sat alone at his desk, smoking a snow box alone, his mind lost in thought. His secretary and typist, Maggie. Hope walked into the house and opened the window. Let the smoke that permeate the room be released. Miss Maggie then served him a cup of coffee.

After Churchill thanked him, he asked his female secretary:

"Miss Maggie, do you believe that God exists?"

Miss Maggie gave Churchill a strange look and nodded, "Of course, I am a Christian." ”

"Will God then come and walk on earth?"

As he said this, Churchill opened a drawer and pulled out an old magazine, which was a special issue made by the American "Times Magazine" for Lin Han after the martial arts competition, and the cover was a photo of Lin Han.

Miss Maggie thought for a moment and replied to him in a very non-nutritious way:

"God is everywhere."

"What a useless answer."

This phrase Churchill hid in his heart. Didn't say it. He looked out the window. The crowd that had gathered in front of 10 Downing Street to cheer for Chamberlain had dispersed. Christmas is coming soon, but in December London, there is no pre-holiday joy to be seen, but rather endless sorrow.

Churchill asked, "Do you believe that there is a devil in the world?" ”

"God is everywhere. It's to deal with the devil. ”

The female secretary replied "smartly".

"That's a good answer!"

Churchill smiled wryly and praised the female secretary.

"Sephiroth teaches. Gabriel? Sephiroth? Lin Han? ”

So much has happened. So many "bizarre" things have happened, and now Churchill no longer sees the rumors that everyone used to listen to as "jokes" and "cowhides", but "simply" as cowhides and jokes.

"If there really are gods (or devils) in the world. And they are now on the side of the Germans, then this war"

Looking out the window at the hazy sky, Churchill rubbed his temples with a terrible headache.

Chamberlain was saddled with a lot of infamy for appeasement, but Churchill knew he had been wronged. Conservative leader Neville Chamberlain, who replaced the Labour Party in 1935, worked hard to restore Britain to industrialization and restore the country's military industrial strength. After World War I, the national strength of the British Empire declined very severely, and the signing of the Washington Naval Treaty caused very deep damage to the shipbuilding, steel and military industries of the British Empire.

Before World War I, at the height of the British Empire, domestic shipyards could have eleven battleships built at the same time. And now, even starting construction of four or five battleships at the same time is a big problem. In the case of artillery manufacturing, which was the traditional strength of the British Empire, the British Empire had no technology but no supporting equipment - because during the fifteen-year naval holiday, the factory equipment was closed and "obsolete" because it could not get orders.

Chamberlain's coming to power was an effort to restore these things, but there was not enough time, and the outbreak of China's intervention war affected the process of Britain's industrialization even more severely. Churchill thought of a technology exchange agreement reached between Britain and the United States half a month ago, that is, the British government obtained the manufacturing technology of the 16-inch MK17 naval gun from the United States through a technology exchange with the United States. It's not that Britain can't develop the technology for its own sixteen-inch guns, it's just that it takes time. Among the various naval powers before World War II, the fifteen-year "naval holiday" had the deepest impact on Britain due to the evil consequences of the release of Manan Mountain. In order to "save military spending," Britain's investment in scientific research, which had greatly reduced its national strength after World War I, has greatly reduced its investment in scientific research in this area, which has caused today's evil results.

Churchill, who had been the Minister of the Navy and had a deep understanding of technology, also did not think that Germany, which had been bound by the shackles of the Treaty of Versailles for more than ten years, would be able to catch up with Britain in a short period of time, and then build those two "demonic" warships. When the two ships were designed, the British side got a lot of jokes about the various "dilemmas" faced by the Germans in designing the warships, and finally they had to ask the Italians for help to complete the design.

"I don't believe that in such a bad situation, how could the Germans have built such a terrible battleship?"

This is why Churchill gradually began to suspect that there were "non-human" forces helping Germany. (To be continued......)
