"What's your attitude?"

Su Mu was a person who was far more decisive than Bastion had imagined.

After hearing about the previous imperial secrets, Su Mu had already made his own judgment in an instant, and then he no longer dwelled on the correctness or error of this judgment, but directly asked the next question.

Bastion ...... What is your attitude towards this?

"When things go wrong, there must be demons. ”

Bastien's answer was equally decisive, explaining firmly and bluntly:

"The reason why the emperor tried his best to conceal the fact that he was the chosen one, and even did not hesitate to let outsiders mistakenly think that the imperial government and the opposition were chaotic, and the princes and princesses were in the ascendancy, naturally had even greater ambitions. ”

"And the key point is that the part of the people who have the most resources in the world obviously includes the Emperor, or even only the Emperor. ”

"He has the noblest status, the most powerful army, and the countless inheritances that have been passed since ancient times. And if he is not satisfied, there is actually only one way to solve it. ”

Bastien's inference can be said to be almost verbal.

But on the whole, there seems to be only one explanation for all the emperor's actions today:

If the emperor is still not satisfied with his current glory and status, then the only choice he can make is actually the one that Bastião guessed...... Wage war and conquer the world!

The continent, which has been relatively comfortable and peaceful for thousands of years, has almost forgotten that the history of mankind has always been a biography of blood and fire.

This creature called a human being, under the control of ambition, has always done things that terrify everyone.

If the Emperor really had such an idea, it would obviously be an undoubted catastrophe for the entire Parinoa continent.

"So, you're trying to stop?"

As the conversation deepened, Su Mu became more and more unable to see Bastion.

Bastion's first proposal was intended to unite with Su Mu to wipe out the Dark Bards.

From this point of view alone, Bastião seems to be a very ambitious man, and only by untying him can he enjoy the beauty of power with peace of mind.

However, at this moment, as the conversation between Su Mu and Bastion deepened.

Bastien's core purpose seems to have shifted to the stability and stability of the continent.

Therefore, Su Mu subconsciously asked the sentence just now.

......

"I'm not a good person, not even a good person. Anyone who is too kind and soft-hearted will not be able to climb to where I am today. ”

"And you should have heard that strongly advocating the Papal States to send troops to the Kingdom of France is the core political agenda of my position. Not only do I not have the slightest interest in war, but I even believe that war is, to some extent, the best means of resolving internal contradictions. ”

Bastien's theory, although it does not conform to the mainstream of the world's thinking.

But in fact, to a certain extent, this is almost a sharp reflection that only modern society can propose.

Su Mu was slightly admired, looking at the young man in front of him who was no more than twenty-eight or nineteen years old, while admiring the other party's way of thinking, he also quietly waited for the other party's next explanation.

"But my ambition is only based on what I can control. I am sure that I can know the scale of the war, and that I can contain it within what I can control. While this may be a cold statement, the war I need is really a by-product of the politics of the Papal States. ”

"And Emperor Long Tuo is different, his desire for war is completely from the heart of the desire to conquer. And there is obviously no end to something called the desire to conquer. Once the Emperor starts a war, it will surely drag the whole world into a quagmire, and even sink into it for years, years, decades, and decades. ”

As he spoke, Bastião suddenly looked into the cramped, dimly lit passage around him.

Then he used this as a metaphor and gently concluded:

"I just don't want to be so dark around me when I'm at the top of power. My desire for power is to enjoy the world, or to transform it, but I don't want to...... Really go and destroy the world!"

......

Bastion succeeded in convincing Su Mu, who no longer asked about Bastion's purpose and reason.

But another question was suddenly raised by Su Mu:

"If I'm not mistaken, the girl named Maggie is the real strongest in the Papal States. And the reason why you hid him was precisely so that she would not be noticed by the emperor in advance. ”

Su Mu's question, in fact, even Su Mu himself has no confidence.

After all, the content of this question is all Su Mu's speculation, and Su Mu has no real evidence at all. Even if Bastion immediately denied it, Su Mu had no choice at all.

However, to Su Mu's relief, after having decided to join forces to resist the imperial ambitions, Bastion once again showed enough honesty:

"Yes, Maggie is not only the strongest in the Mission, but even the Holy See of this generation. Although her identity has been kept a secret so far, as soon as she succeeds in winning the deduction battle and returns home, His Majesty the Pope will immediately publicly canonize her and reveal her to the world. ”

When Bastien said this, it was rare for him to suddenly relax his expression for a few minutes.

Then he looked at Su Mu slightly teasingly, and then gently asked a joke that seemed to be extremely intimate, even a little too intimate:

"In today's Pareloya Continent, there are actually only three Tianjiao girls who can be called by people. And you are so hesitant about two of them...... Are you really going to have some more stories with our Highness Maggie?"

......

Bastien's teasing, of course, did not reciprocate.

The meeting, which contained countless complicated information, actually lasted less than half an hour in total.

When Su Mu returned to the martial arts arena again, the referee was already announcing Maggie's victory, while Jiang Lan was similar to Yang Zimu, who ushered in a dismal defeat in the faint suppression.

Su Mu looked at the so-called "holy woman" who walked down lightly on the other party's alchemy platform, although she was not affected by Bastion's words, she was still curious about how strong the other party was.

Even in this world, girls' fighting talent is still weaker than men's.

Even Lu Xi, who once won the top spot in the conference, was rated as slightly soft by the former dean of Qinghua Academy, and was not unanimously praised.

But at this time, just when Su Mu was just thinking about this.

A message that was suddenly recalled by Su Mu suddenly burst in Su Mu's mind.

Bastion's teasing last sentence was a joke, talking about the complicated relationship between Su Mu and Su Tong Luxi.

But this relationship itself is currently known only to Su Mu and the three themselves.

It wasn't until this moment that Su Mu felt a coldness full of bone marrow, and in front of the young man named Bastion, Su Mu was almost in a completely * state.

Even the most secret entanglement in Su Mu's heart was also so clear in the eyes of the other party.

Su Mu had to admit that after all, he still underestimated this world in his fantasy, and he also underestimated the characters who stirred up the storm in this fantasy world.

"What was the previous thing?"

When Su Mu returned, Lu Xi had already asked lightly.

At this time, Su Mu did not explain in person, but instead looked at him, him, and him recklessly.

Then he replied calmly: "There are still many things to say, and there are still many things that must be said, so after returning to the other garden for a while, I will talk about it in detail!"
