Chapter 16: The Trickster

Even if it is essentia, it can't really defeat the gods when no one presides over it, but it is not too difficult to restrain angels and saints. However, Greenlight is well aware that all rules are loopholes, exploitable, distorted, and even "deceived", so he never expected to sit back and relax under the constraints of these five rules.

And he knew exactly where his weaknesses were—no surprise, no, if George III had a brain, he should have wanted it too.

That's right, it's the weakness of the army and the country. 、

……

A short time later, Medici returned, still with her head on her shoulders and Renette Tinicol who didn't look particularly good.

"What's going on?"

Greenlet waved his hand to stop Medici's salute and asked. Temporarily repelled George III, he calmed down, and had figured out what had happened when he made his wish before, and now he was inevitably a little apprehensive...... It wouldn't be fun if you single-handedly advanced the end date.

Because she didn't lift her head, Renette spoke unusually smoothly this time:

"The situation is not optimistic, after the erosion of the Mother Tree of Desire, I judge that the bound god has reached the most critical juncture, and it is only a line away from being completely eroded...... The temperance faith is his final anchor, and the ritual that winter is coming will most likely be the last straw."

"You mean that the Indulgents may be cracking down on the remnants of the Temperance Sect with unprecedented force?"

Sin......

Greenlight muttered in his heart, frowning and guessing uncertainly.

Renette nodded, then shook her head again:

"Yes, definitely."

「……」

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and it belonged to yes.

…………

Ten months later, the Indulgence Party's counterattack and suppression of Sobia was not over, and George III had already dealt with the pressure from the Church after his true sequence was exposed...... What? How was He exposed, you ask? It had to be a trouble for Greenlight to give him, just to delay him from freeing up his hands to attack Sobia with a tangled army.

Unfortunately, this is only a stopgap measure. This is not? In October, through the doppelganger of Donald and the identity of the Earl and Major General of "Greenlight", Greenlight got first-hand information from the Rune military very early:

George III took and beheaded Basel for collaborating with the enemy, and ordered Waldhouse to lead the whole army, personally supervise the battle, and make a little preparation, immediately conquer the "People's Republic of Byrand" and wipe out all the rebels. As for the name "Byron People's Republic", it was also established by "Alan Bieber" just a few days ago and spread throughout the country to announce the forces of all parties...... It was not that his mind was caught in the door, and he left behind the "accumulation of food and the slow reign", and he had to give George III an excuse to send troops at this critical time, but a decision made after weighing the pros and cons and thinking carefully.

First, a clear state system is conducive to the practice of his order; Second, George III had discovered him, discovered Sobya, and there was no point in concealing it, and whether he had a reasonable excuse or not, sending troops seemed to be his best choice; Third, during this time, Greenlet gradually figured out where he miscalculated and where Basel's unprovoked death was, and he felt that there was really no need to fight against Adam at such a critical moment......

To put it simply, he chose to make a wave of encouragement against Adam, and for the time being, he did what he wanted.

"He couldn't have watched Sobia fall to Rune, could he? This shouldn't be in line with the zeitgeist he wants, and I'm going to see what cards he has to play!"

He was probably rotten to the point where he was at Adam's mercy...... There's no way, it's not that he doesn't fight, he really can't beat George III now, plus Medici and the god of lights are hanging, after all, he is purely a completely ineffective combat force. On the contrary, if he is willing to abandon Sobia's inheritance, he is actually invincible, and he can escape to the forsaken land at any time to save his life...... Isn't it said that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years? Anyway, he wouldn't be able to use ten years to get promoted—even without Sobya's foundation.

As he expected, on this day, he was paying close attention to the "

Earl Greenlight", Adam came to Wimble.

This time He came politely and above board.

In the conference room, Medici stood beside Greenlet, his face calm, and he didn't see the kind white-robed priest opposite...... Inadvertently, Adam glanced at Him and didn't understand what Greenlet meant, and could only assume that He didn't exist.

Adam was about to speak, but Greenlight took the lead:

"Tell me why you're here?" Your Excellency, the Ancient Sun God, the Creator."

What?!!!

Medici looked up suddenly, staring straight at Adam with both eyes, and in a trance, he seemed to understand a lot of things, and a thousand emotions came to his heart at once.

Adam's warm smile froze slightly, as if he suspected that Greenlight was just testing himself, so he said sloppily:

"No, I don't understand what you mean."

"Humph!" Greenlight snorted coldly, Ben was just a warning, and he didn't really intend to completely tear his face with him: "It's okay if you don't understand, I just want to remind you that it's better not to move too much...... After all, even the former "Ancient Sun God" is still one step away from the real old days, and he has not fully mastered the essentia, even if he is a pillar, he can only estimate the complete old days...... So, don't repeatedly provoke my limits, you probably don't know what I do."

After an unceremonious yin and yang meal, before the words fell, he didn't care about Adam, who was smiling stiffly, and waved his hand:

"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Adam was also patient, and instead of shallowly warning him with the oath Greenlet had made, warning him not to leak this information to the three gods of the Sun Storm and Wisdom, but regrouped his colors, and said with pity and a smile in his eyes as usual:

"I'd like to ask you to get yourself a matchmaker."

"Matchmakers? To myself?"

Ridiculous and funny, Greenlight asked with an exaggerated laugh like a clown, with a tone of disbelief in his voice.

Adam glanced at Medich Sauron Einhorn, intentionally or unintentionally, and nodded sincerely:

"Of course, the subject is still Miss Carol Sauron, and as you can imagine, both the Sauron family and the Sun Church are very reluctant to have a real 'Emperor' in Rune, but unfortunately, they have no excuse to intervene in this matter for the time being...... Well, it's best for Lord Sauron to intervene in this matter."

So you're here to remind me that it's okay to ally with Intis?

Greenlight frowned for a moment, and seriously considered the feasibility of this matter...... I have to say that this is indeed a good move, and Adam's purpose of provoking the war this time is also very clear, and there is a high probability that there will be no more conspiracy...... What he considered was the pros and cons of this side, after all, behind Rune was the storm and the night, and the mother earth goddess Lilith, well, and the god of wisdom who tried to invest in himself before, but was cut off by Adam.

On the side of Intis, there is only one Sun who is not very good, a steam who is not very good, and there is no such thing as the uniqueness of the "Grim Reaper", and the God of War has no plans to face Gang Rune now.

But...... I don't seem to have the foundation to make peace with Rune or even form an ally, right?

Greenlight pinched the corner of her forehead with a slight headache.

Sure enough, when you choose a sequential path, your enemies and friends are also determined...... Otherwise, the uniqueness of the "Grim Reaper" and the two things that "Mother Earth God" is Lilith pretending to be leaked to the God of War in advance? I'm afraid he won't be able to fight for that...... It is better to be honest as cattle and horses that only need to be slaughtered, so as not to die for a long time, and the continuous war will affect civilians too much.

Forget it, it's better to solve the immediate trouble first!

In a blink of an eye, Greenlight thought a lot, but at the moment, he was really helpless, and could only choose to accept the "clear path" given by Adam

"However, no matter how reluctant the Sauron family and the Church of the Sun are, the target is also Rune...... To me, they're also the ones who "lead the wolves into their homes," and they're not necessarily willing to commit too many troops."

When he induced Adam to say something more subtle, he quoted it in passing

Russell invented the idiom "lure the wolf into the house".

Adam smiled and nodded, and said in his usual enlightening tone:

"You can reveal some of your details and show your investment value, and they themselves will not mind too much that there is another "Black Emperor" in the Southern Continent, and they can even say that they are happy to see it...... On the other hand, the grudge between Fersak and Rune is not a day or two, and they also don't want Rune to have another "emperor."

"But in this case, the 'Burning Sun' will probably win me over in preparation for you and ......."

As he spoke, Greenlight suddenly realized, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and was once again amazed by Adam's conspiracy.

This is already preparing for the Yin and Eternal Sun! Anyway, according to his oath, at least he can't prevent him from becoming a god, he is not worried at all that he is really being co-opted by the eternal sun, and once he intends to work closely with him, and after becoming a god, he is willing to help him fight against the puddle and kill the sun, then the matter will be far easier than designing an ambush to ambush the god of war in the night.

He still smiled slightly, and bowed his head slightly.
