As a young man, he lived an ascetic life and traveled around the continent, Mass went to the forefront of the war against the Red Glove heresy in the vast jungle at the southernmost tip of the empire, and also went to the Diago dynasty, which was completely different from the empire in the aristocratic framework to the east of the empire, and even with the troubadours that only vaguely existed in the troubadours of the continent. The 7th heir to one of the ten golden families, which few people know, drank tea with, and then returned to the Empire, where Mass climbed the highest peak in the Alps, the Mutu Snow Peak, and wandered for a time in the northern lich, and so rich in life experience that the Exgercy of Mass saw all kinds of nobles, gluttonous, selfish, brutal, and the blood of the first night of the virgin that he had seen as food on the heart of a baby, and the blood of the first night of the virgin as a drink. Likes to cut off people's limbs and listen to people's wails, and so on and so on monster freak aristocrats. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

So from this point of view, Augustus's cold-blooded selfishness is not unacceptable to Mass, but Mass's anger is more or this cold-blooded and outrageous Augustus actually tried to take advantage of him.

Of course, Mass's concern about Augustus when he grows up cannot be ruled out, after all, the 17-year-old Augustus is already so cruel, and it is difficult to predict how cruel he will be once he grows up.

Mass straightened up the crimson robe on his body, and finally pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Augustus, he would not be swayed by the deep despair revealed in Augustus's last sentence, he had seen too many hypocritical masks of the nobles, he put away the materials on the round table, and said, "Well, since this time has come, then I don't think you would mind telling your plan in full." ”

"There's no such thing as a complete plan. Augustus, who was lying on the armrests of his wheelchair with his hands flat, looked calm, he thought for a while and said: "If there is more, I'm afraid you have guessed it, yes, I came this time, it is indeed with deep sincerity to ask for your help, at the same time, all the civilians in the wasteland who will pass by Alfred's fiefdom also need your help, you can understand this as my despicable threat to you with innocent lives, it doesn't matter, in fact, I do think so." Oh yes, there are temptations in addition to requests and threats, and if you are willing to give me this chance to live, Alfred will do his best to promise you a glorious future. ”

Mass raised his lips and sneered, as if mocking this despicable devil who did not even know whether he would survive or not, and dared to promise the so-called future.

He said, "Can you roughly sketch the glorious future in your mouth?"

Augustus frowned slightly, as if he was organizing his thoughts, and he said: "If there are no unstoppable natural and man-made disasters, I am afraid that you will not be able to win the Red Coat next year, so that your huge age advantage will no longer exist, I sincerely suggest that you take another shortcut, you can consider proposing to the Holy See to establish a new new district in the wasteland, in this case, it is your suggestion in itself, coupled with your strong enough prestige, it is not impossible for you to become the first cardinal archbishop of the new diocese with an exception." Please believe that once the new diocese is established, Alfred will definitely build your diocese into a rich place that is not inferior to any parish - of course, you may think that even if you establish a new diocese, you do not need to rely on the dying Alfred, you can choose Sauron or Donald, but my lordship, I think that compared to the solid Sauron or Donald, if you gently pull Alfred, then you will get a greater reward in the future. Besides, I don't think anyone other than me will be able to make your diocese rise to the Holy Empire in 20 years. ”

"Finally, when you return to the Holy City, you will be able to stand tall for your contribution and for the success of the Holy See in opening a new diocese. ”

Interesting shortcuts.

Fun self-confidence.

Mass really felt that even if he did not underestimate the young helmsman of Alfred, he finally underestimated Augustus, and he said: "But why do you think that the Holy See will establish such a new diocese? besides, such a new diocese adjacent to the Lich, and a diocese of the Empire banishing sinners, will the Empire agree to it, not to mention what good it will do the Holy See?"

Augustus sneered in his heart, the Holy See's ambition to spread the glory of God all over the continent made it clear to the people in the wasteland, so if the new diocese was gradually expanded and radiated, what reason did the Holy See have to refuse? Besides, the empire, of course, the empire would not watch the gradual growth of the Holy See, the problem was that it was because the empire would not agree that the Holy See would do its best to establish the diocese of the wasteland.

After all, the struggle between theocracy and imperial power has been multiplied for thousands of years, and there is no result.

"God loves the world, and God's mercy and generosity are willing to save all sinners who have made mistakes, and there is no reason for the Holy See to abandon the wasteland. ”

Augustus seemed to fall into absolute sanity, and he did not slow to speak, and then continued: " There will definitely be resistance, but the resistance of the empire and the Holy See will not be as huge as you imagined, the first is your prestige and influence, and then the biggest effort of the wasteland in the past hundred years is to return to the empire and return to the arms of the Lord, although the empire and the Holy See have not approved and have no action for a long time, but I think there will definitely be people who support the wasteland within the empire and the Holy See, you know, although those nobles in the wasteland are a little poor, but the ability to tirelessly drill all kinds of loopholes and opportunities is their instinct, and they must have laid a certain foreshadowing in the empire and the Holy See。 ”

"And what you need to do is guide those foreshadowings to the surface. ”

"It's really well thought out. Bishop Mass scoffed, then fell into an unusual silence.

He was silent for quite some time, until the originally deserted tavern was completely noisy, and he finally spoke slowly: " Augustus, let me sum up, your belief that I will help you is nothing more than based on two points, one is that the fate of most of the civilians in the wasteland is in my hands, and the other is your so-called new diocesan plan, let's start with the first point, yes, I have indeed dedicated my soul to the believers of the Holy See and the Lord a long time ago, theoretically I can't watch so many civilians die tragically in your conspiracy, but the key problem is that I am not a god, and I can't save the common people. ”

Augustus did not react, it was not something he expected, and he categorically did not expect Mass to compromise because of his threat, no matter how pious and merciful Mass was.

It has nothing to do with character, and since he can climb to the high position of the Holy See Excumber at the young age of 38, no matter how pure and noble the Mass is, it will not be stupidly noble.

"On the second point, if I had been in the past, I would probably not have been able to refuse the temptation of your new diocese, and I would probably have wavered in your temptation - but Augustus, you may not know very well, that after the general election next year, the Holy See will decide not to have a cardinal archbishop in the diocese of Noi for the time being, but that I will temporarily exercise all the powers of the archbishop of Noi in my capacity as the excumber, and in the following year I will officially put on the red garment and guard the noi. Yes, I admit that if I had built a new diocese, I would have gained more, but the question is, why should I leave my future in the hands of the unknown if I can move forward steadily? ”

The world of Augustus collapsed suddenly.

It can be said that if it were not for the opportunity of next year's election year, Augustus would definitely not have considered the Bishop of Mass, and he would never think that he had any value to the Bishop of Mass, so at this time, knowing that the Mass had obtained the prerequisites for ascending to the throne without paying attention to the new diocese, it would definitely mean that all the hopes of Augustus had been disappointed, and all the plans were empty talk.

This is probably because the people in his previous life are not as good as the sky.

Despair finally gripped Augustus again, and even he didn't realize that his knuckles were already white as he gripped the armrest of his wheelchair.
