Chapter 44: Persuasion

Minister Himmler only felt that he was about to collapse. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

It had been more than a year since he had been in this ghost place, and he had secretly regretted it more than once, regretting why he had taken on this task in the first place.

Isn't this type of intelligence investigation task always the responsibility of the Ministry of Intelligence? It has nothing to do with the pickets of its own discipline inspection department! Why didn't you leave the task to the Ministry of Intelligence in front of the chief of the General Staff? It is completely reasonable to blame the Ministry of Intelligence on this matter? Moreover, if I take over the task as soon as I take it, why should I come here in person? Why should I, a high-ranking party leader who is in charge of the two major departments of the State Discipline Inspection Department and the SS picket troops, go to such a dangerous task in this place where birds don't? I can accomplish it very well even if I send a few subordinates.

Feeling the cool, salty sea breeze blowing from the west, Minister Himmler sighed.

Hey, I knew that I wouldn't be so desperate to tie up the chief of the general staff, and I wouldn't express my loyalty so nakedly.

However, no matter how much regret there is, it is too late to say anything now.

The mountain that had stood high in the distance for thousands of years was gone, and with the efforts of the martial saints and millions of laborers day and night, it had been transformed into countless large and small gravel, which had been laid in the valley basin and built on the man-made river further east.

Now, the narrowest part of the Central Plateau has been opened up, allowing people to go directly west from the valley basin to the sandy beaches on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean.

Now, the river channel from the valley basin to the beach is being dug day and night, and at the last moment, the top brass of those sects are still no longer stingy with their labor, and all the captives, slaves, and serfs are sent up to work hard for the excavation of this last section of the river. And, halfway through these efforts, the rest of the work will only take a week at most to complete!

The construction site to the west is still busy and orderly, and the surrounding mountains and forests are also quiet and quiet, not unlike any other time in the year or so.

But Minister Himmler could feel that this was the last calm before the storm!

Once this last stretch of the river is dug and the sea water pours in, a great battle can happen anytime and anywhere!

But in such a dangerous situation, they could not escape, they could not hide, they could not find a way to defend themselves, and according to his speculation, the Germans would not have sent anyone to save them.

Because they have to serve that damn second cardinal!

"What's the matter, unhappy?" a voice suddenly sounded in Himmler's ears, startling him.

When I turned around, sure enough, it was still the same Honorable St. John with a bright smile.

Although he had cursed countless times in his heart, Minister Himmler's face did not show anything: "Lord St. John, you are awake, I will go and prepare breakfast." ”

"Well, let's go. The cardinal didn't say anything more, just waved his hand.

There was no way, so Minister Himmler and Minister Schmidt got busy once again taking the ingredients out of the tent.

As they prepared, the cardinal, dressed in white linen, stood on the edge of the cliff and was silent as he looked at the near-completion site in the distance.

Serving a plate of food, Minister Himmler could not help but plead: "Look, Lord St. John, they will be finished in a few days, and it will be very lively in the future, and maybe there will be a fight, this ...... You see, we've both been with you for over a year. Can you please let us go for the sake of what we have been doing our best? As you know, such a big war, with our strength, once it is affected, it is impossible to survive...... Rest assured, we will be sure to help you get your food and water ready for the next few days before we leave......"

Minister Himmler babbled for a long time, and only then did Master St. John turn around, his face still smiling, without any anger or blame: "Don't worry, it's okay, even if the fight starts, it's on the other side of the Sea of Death, nearly a hundred kilometers away from here, it's okay, you just wait here for me to come back." ”

In such a super battle of dozens of martial saint-level powerhouses, how can a safe distance of 100 kilometers be enough? If you want to ensure safety, you have to withdraw 1,000 miles.

Minister Himmler was about to plead a few more words, but before he could open his mouth, he was interrupted by St. John: "Needless to say, you are just waiting for me here." ”

His words were calm, and the smile on his face remained unchanged, but Himmler could hear the resoluteness in his tone. It was clear that he was not going to let the two of them go.

Minister Himmler had no choice but to sit down on a nearby stone and begin to think about how to save his life in this battle, and pray that the demonic cardinal would die in the battle that followed.

Just as Minister Himmler was in a state of flux, Team Leader Schmidt also walked up with the freshly boiled fish soup.

"Oh, you have cooked this fish soup so well, this milky colour, this rich taste......" As usual, Lord St. John spared no sparing his admiration, and drank with great joy.

At this time, Team Leader Schmidt spoke: "Cardinal, I have a question that I have always wanted to ask you, but I don't know if it is possible. ”

"Okay, you ask. "It seems that for the sake of delicious fish soup, St. John is very crisp.

"You were alone when you came, and now you've been here for more than a year....... "Schmidt's voice was a little hesitant: "Well, you see, the project over there is almost over, don't you want to contact your subordinates, or other people in your sect?"

Hearing the words of Team Leader Schmidt, Minister Himmler couldn't wait to praise him three times.

Yes, now this cardinal needs someone to serve, he needs to pass the time of boredom, he needs to enjoy good food, and naturally he will not let them go, but once his men, or other people from the Holy See, naturally there will be someone to serve him, someone to accompany him, someone to prepare food for him, naturally they will not need them, and they will have every reason to leave!

"Well...... "Lord St. John touched his chin and pondered for a moment before he said, "Hmm...... This time, I'm alone, and no one else. ”

Seeing that he didn't answer the question, Team Leader Schmidt's tone was a little anxious: "I mean, do you need to contact the other people in your sect to discuss countermeasures, after all, the river will be opened soon, and they will start searching and salvaging the holy ark, this ......"

"I see what you mean!" said Lord St. John, shrugging his shoulders, "I said, this time I'll be alone." As for the battle for the ark afterward...... I thought, I'm alone, it's enough!"
