20. The dice have been dropped! (a)

"Calculate the time, Sloth, they have already exchanged fire with the little master. ”

Moving the black knight, Jerreus said coldly:

"What do you think will happen this time?"

"Purely from a theoretical level, the little young master who is ignorant of the world has no chance. ”

Reggie blocked the Black Queen's path with white soldiers, tepidly asserting.

Winning the "Seven Deadly Sins"?

This can't even be called a problem.

As a doppelganger of that adult, each member of the Seven Deadly Sins has the power to scorch a country overnight, and the soldiers of the country will not hurt them in the slightest, only to increase the number of corpses piled up.

Death that breathes, disaster that walks, poison that thinksβ€”these are the seven deadly sins.

However, such members of the Seven Deadly Sins were defeated at the hands of humans, still twice in a row.

That's not something to boast about.

There may be many twists and turns, there may be objective unfavorable factors, or there may be subjective problems of carelessness and underestimation of the enemy. But failure is failure, and no amount of justification can change what has happened. The only thing to do is to swallow the bitter fruit of defeat and come up with targeted tactics with a high win rate based on the intelligence and data collected before, so as to win back in the next battle.

As long as there is a next time, you can find a way to win it back, which is exactly the attitude that adults should have towards failure.

This is exactly what happened in this operation.

Investing two members of the Seven Deadly Sins at once is unprecedented, and in terms of combat power alone, this is already an unprecedented combat power that is enough to sweep away the entire human world, and it is used to deal with an old floating warship and hundreds of humans on board plus an ancient species, no matter how you look at it, there is a suspicion of killing chickens with knives and winning without force, which makes people want to ask, "Will this be too much?"

Not too much at all.

This is just the result of pure calculations.

If one is defeated, then two are thrown. The basic tactics are to use numerical superiority to crush the opponent, and the so-called clever strategy, to put it bluntly, is to use the terrain and conditions to introduce the form into a "many-to-one" situation.

Two must be stronger than one, and three must be stronger than two.

It's that simple.

Since one member of the Seven Deadly Sins can't defeat an opponent, it's completely logical to throw two at once.

Some people may question, "Is this still fair?", "Is it so strong or two together, do you want to be shameless?", but except for a certain guy with too much self-consciousness and excessive self-esteem, the members of the Seven Deadly Sins basically have nothing to do with "dignity" and "glory", as for fairness...... Never expect an enemy to give you a fair chance to play, at least not an enemy with an IQ above normal.

Wouldn't it be safer to simply commit all the remaining five members of the Seven Deadly Sins at once, and more certainly defeat the opponent?

The answer is that the phase is too poor.

The Seven Deadly Sins are all people who have difficulty fitting into normal society, not only because of their way of thinking and acting, but also because of their excessive power. The power of these guys in their humanoid form will affect the surrounding area, let alone in their second form. One by one has a bad temper, an abnormal brain, and a terrifying strength, let this kind of guy team up to slaughter a novice rookie, I'm afraid that in the middle of the fight, it will start to cause infighting. Of course, the target will eventually be swept up in the aftermath of the infighting and die, but then the entire continent will also become a desert.

Unless it's a mission like destroying the world, it's better to let the Seven Deadly Sins team up for this kind of thing. Otherwise, if you kill innocent passers-by who are full of pits and valleys, how can you have a good conscience (Li Lin & Seven Deadly Sins: What is conscience?Can you eat, wear or use?)?

But there are exceptions to everything.

There is also a combination of the seven deadly sins that are considered unsuitable for group action, and which they themselves consider to be meaningless.

Sloth of Laziness;

Gluttony's Gluttony;

When these two get together, it's easy to make up the impression of lying on the couch and eating fried food, but in fact, their second form is originally complementary, or the type of one plus one is greater than two. When they teamed up, none of the Seven Deadly Sins would dare to approach easily.

"One-on-one, I'm absolutely sure I'll kill either of those two guys, but if they join forces in their second form, I'll definitely run away without looking back. ”

"With the same feeling, this is not a shameful thing. If you can escape, it can even be considered an honorary achievement. β€œ

If you can escapeβ€”

"Since the lord has given permission, the little young master's good fortune is also here. This is the end of the story of 'The Legend of the Holy Maiden', which is a short story in terms of readability and length. ”

"That's something that the big guys above need to care about. Let's just do our job. ”

Jerles frowned, couldn't think of a way to turn the tables around, sighed lightly and obediently admitted defeat.

Perhaps to divert the embarrassment of failure, or to change his mood, he steered the topic in another direction.

"Sometimes I wonder, was the little master led crooked by that adult?"

"Huh?"

Reggie, who was drinking black tea, looked sideways at Jelles, like a paparazzi reporter who discovered a big star scandal.

"Where?"

"What do you want it to be? Philosophy and Whiteness?"

Glaring with disgust, Gerus readjusted his words in disgust.

"I'm talking about strategy. ”

The strategy of Li Lin and Roland can be said to be-for-tat, the ultimate goal of the two sides has long been clear, and there is no possibility of reconciliation, only collision, until one of them falls or admits defeat.

This is clear to everyone, and there is no doubt about it.

What made Jelles feel that something was wrong was certain details in the specific process and means.

"Why didn't the young master get rid of the mentally handicapped crown prince and let Her Royal Highness the princess regent? In this way, our strategy will inevitably be greatly affected, and Charlemagne will avoid many troubles that could have been avoided. Maybe the end won't change much, but at least it will allow the country to survive a little longer. ”

"Good question. ”

Reggie, who had returned to his senses, raised the corners of his mouth and raised his teacup in greeting.

"Of course he thought about it and came to the conclusion that 'it can't be done'. ”

It's not "can't", it's "can't do".

In other words, there were certain forces protecting the Dauphin Louis, and any attempt to destroy the nobleman would not succeed.

"The crown prince and the army itself, us, and the church - no one can harm the loser under these protections. ”

"Church? I thought they were out of food. ”

Jelles was not surprised by the first two, the crown prince and the army did not need to say much, and Alfheim would not let Roland kick out this "enemy god assist, his own pig teammate" in order to achieve his own goals. The church? These bereaved dogs, who have lost their bases, still want to make a comeback?

"Don't underestimate human attachments and resentment at any time, because they don't make sense of it. Sometimes even the organization is destroyed, important people are killed, and the resentment still does not go away. ”

"But the Church Has ......"

"In any case, it is a huge religion that has secretly dominated the world for more than a thousand years, with adherents all over the world, and it is not surprising that even Stasie has no access to it. What's more, the Holy Maiden and the huge mass base are still there, as long as they can bring down Alfheim, they will be able to get rid of their shame and guide the world to the **** road they have been waiting for for a long time. ”

"So they spared no effort behind the scenes to instigate and support the crown prince to launch an all-out war against Alfheim, regardless of the difference in strength between the two sides? ”

Jelles shrugged, indicating that the joke wasn't funny at all.

"Isn't it quite romantic, 'for the sake of a world dominated by man,' 'to overthrow the old gods and revere the new ones.'" It would be even more perfect if there was a tragic ending of dedication to the collective faith. ”

Reggie, a literary young man, exaggeratedly opened his hands, he was the least resistant to romanticism, but unfortunately his interlocutor was a realist poisonous tongue.

"If you dream of defeating that adult, it is better to hide in bed and cover your head with a pillow so as not to see reality. ”

In fact, Li Lin's attitude towards religion was consistent - either shut up and prostrate under his feet, or simply perish. That's why he didn't hesitate to destroy Imir, an organization that was outside the control of the government and could gather people to act was something he would never tolerate. Even if religion is allowed to exist in the future, the law clearly stipulates that any religious organization must be officially registered, and all activities must be registered in advance. In other words, the living cannot be married, infants cannot be baptized, and the dead cannot be buried without official permission. You have to wait for the official seal to give permission before you can go to heaven or hell. In addition, any activity is illegal and will be dealt with with a relentless iron fist.

If the church can't face up to and accept such a future, then it's better to hide in bed and not face reality, as Jelles said.

"It's really not easy for the little young master, there are so many pig teammates around him who can still make Charlemagne hold on until now. ”

"We also have a lot to credit for that. ”

"Hopefully this time he can do well......"

Whispers of malice and mockery continue, and above their heads, thousands of people are fighting for their fate and the fate of the world.
