If Asker remembers correctly, in the original game, the second round of magic came to coincide with the end of the second expansion "Imperial Civil War" and the third expansion "Expedition to the Holy See".

Of course, according to Sheila, that would make sense.

Why did the Holy See incite the Wolf family to rebel in advance?

Why did the two families of Wolf and Hohenstaufen still try to drag the Emperor's coalition forces in Franconia, when there is no chance of victory?

And why, at the critical juncture of the Empire's Civil War, the Holy See still did not send troops?

Everything stems from the coming Second Wave.

If the Wolf family did not rebel, then Emperor Otto would be able to calmly integrate the forces of the country and go south as soon as the demon tide came, which was undoubtedly the most unfavorable situation for the Holy See.

All high-tech equipment was scrapped, domestic industrial production was stagnant, and at the same time it had to face foreign invasions......

Therefore, the Holy See detonated the internal strife in the empire in advance, as long as these two families can hold back the emperor's coalition army, then after the demon tide is over, the Holy See can gather forces to quickly go north.

If not, then the two families will become outcasts, and they will still be able to buy enough time for the Holy See to resume production.

Then, for the Azure Sword mercenary group that is about to join the camp of the Emperor's coalition army, of course, the sooner the civil war ends and the sooner the southern expedition begins, the better.

It is best for the emperor ** team to be prepared, when the southern expedition has just begun, the demon tide is just coming, and all the high-tech equipment of the Holy See will be burned in a crackle, so that the difficulty of the early battle will be minimized, and it is undoubtedly the most favorable situation for the Azure Sword.

It's something that can't be helped. Who told Emperor Otto to gather all available forces for the south, while the Holy See trusted only the Templars and the Mountain Guards? An ordinary team of mercenaries, even if they want to join the Holy See camp, has no way.

In addition, most of the transcendent sects and demigods in the empire will follow Emperor Ottonan into battle. Therefore, in the original game world, the vast majority of players chose to serve the emperor's camp, hoping to obtain enough extraordinary resources by virtue of their merits in the war.

And for the people of the Blue Sword who took over the investigation mission of the Succubus Queen and Apelios, of course, they had to choose the emperor's camp decisively, without the slightest hesitation. The only thing to pay attention to is to complete this task at the right time, and then you have to hurry up and run quickly.

Since the mastermind behind the scenes can influence the emperor's mind, he must have a strong control over the emperor's camp. The Azure Sword found the other party here, and if it exposed itself, the other party would definitely kill people.

Therefore, the key to this task is at a moment. The time is early, and the other party can gather the forces of the emperor's camp to frame and besiege everyone; The time was late, the emperor's camp was blown up by the Holy See, and not only did everyone still have to run, but the task was not completed.

is like a traitor in the Three Kingdoms Killing, you have to wait until the loyal ministers and the thieves are both defeated before they can jump out and reveal their identities, sooner or later.

After continuing to negotiate some strategic details with Sheila, Aske saw Peggy running back in a hurry.

"Master swore to me that the plan she said today was true! She definitely didn't mean to lie to you! ”

Asker: ..................

Sheila:..................

Leaving aside whether this is true or not, how did you manage to get a demigod to put down his son and swear a curse for you?

Asker suddenly realizes that he seems to have underestimated the relationship between Peggy and Agrippina.

But it doesn't matter, it's not a bad thing to be close to the demigods after all, plus in this way, at least this plan to assassinate the demigods should really be no problem.

As for the follow-up campaign, Aske also briefly told Peggy. Unlike Sheila, who is able to think deeply and draw inferences, Peggy just nods her head with a well-behaved and docile expression of "I listen to whatever you say".

It's not that Sidlifa doesn't understand, it's just that she doesn't have any ideas, anyway, I'll just follow Asker in everything.

Done, the difficulty is 0.

After leaving the two, Asker went to find the two youngest girls on the team - it was a bit inappropriate to say that girls were actually a bit inappropriate, Mia and Mi'er were both thirteen or fourteen years old, and they were on the same level as junior high school girls on earth.

If it's accurate to describe it, it's called Lori's graduation.,The girl is not full.。

Of course, Asker has different ways of talking to different team members:

For Medea and Sheila, who are intelligent and shrewd, it is necessary to elaborate on the situation and discuss the debate on an equal footing. Not only to gain the trust of the other party, but also to get some useful advice from the other party, some of which may be details that you did not think of before.

For the kind and considerate type of Eleanor and Sheila, as long as you are honest and clear about the situation, the other party will usually be more understanding.

For the type of direct personality of Sidlifa and Peggy, the words are even simpler: the head of the regiment is going to fight the demigods, do you follow? Follow!

In the end, the more troublesome ones are Mia and Mier.

One reason is that adolescent girls are more unpredictable and changeable, whether they are lively or quiet and introverted, it is difficult to figure out what they are thinking in their hearts.

Another reason is neck pain...... After all, Mia is at the age of growing her body, and it is getting harder and harder to swing or something.

Asker turned around the rest of Hearthfire Island several times, but he didn't find the two men.

Then he remembered that it seemed to be Mi'er's turn to guard the Fire Island in the real plane today.

Teleporting back to the main plane, Asker saw Mi'er sitting on a chair on the balcony, staring at the Alps in the distance.

No, not in a daze, it's about practicing eyesight.

"Asker?" Her perception was still very keen, and she quickly turned her head.

"Where's Mia?" Asker asked.

"She went to the kitchen to steal food and will be back in a moment." Mi'er said.

Asker: ..................

Having to "steal" something in someone's house is really something Mia would do.

"How are you feeling lately?" Asker turned on the "Elder's Hush Warmth" skill, and said with concern.

"Okay." Mi'er pinched the flesh on her face, "I've grown taller, and then I seem to have gained a little weight." ”

No, I'm not asking about your physical development...... Asker hurriedly said, "What about combat strength?" Have the new abilities been adapted? ”

"It feels like we've reached a bottleneck." "In the past, after taking the 'Intuition' and 'Vision' sequence potions, I felt that my marksmanship improved very quickly as my reflexes increased. ”

"But now it feels like progress is getting slower...... Am I relying too much on the supernatural abilities themselves? ”

"Not really." Asker thought for a moment, "It should be your body's fault." ”

"For this weapon, you are far from exerting its full power, so every increase in your own strength will bring a significant increase in overall combat power."

"The reason why I feel like my progress has slowed down lately is because your physical fitness has become a shortcoming, even if you have just taken the potion of 'Intuition II', your reaction speed has been greatly improved, and your body has begun to lose track of reaction speed, right?"

"Hmm." When Asker said this, Mi'er suddenly felt that this seemed to be the case. Every time I practice moving the muzzle and shooting, my body always seems to be slower than half a beat.

"So what can be done to promote the development of the body?" The half-elf girl asked seriously.

"It's not physical development, it's physical enhancement." Aske was rather speechless and corrected the ambiguity in her words, "Just go with the flow, you can eat more protein-rich foods, such as milk,"
