"Sunset Memorial Service..."
Mr. Fool repeated silently, and he almost covered his face with his hands when he heard the name mentioned by the 'angel'.
Is this a way to avoid the situation where everything spoken will be known?
It seems like it actually works...
Audrey's focus was on another aspect. The angel was referring to their circle, and the fact that he knew about the "Twilight Hermits" suggested that his other circle might also be quite powerful.
What is a sunset memorial service?
Alger tried to recall similar names, but ultimately came up empty-handed.
"You can use a different name."
"Like the End Times or something."
After thinking for a moment, Xia Er spoke again.
These names are actually quite fitting; those who understand will immediately grasp their meaning when they hear "Every word spoken will be known."
The End Times... a God-Making Assembly?!
Creating a god?
This title was even more frightening, and even the quietly observing "Sun" and "Magician" were horrified.
"Mr. Fool also knows that once you reach that level, all you think about is how to take it a step further."
"This is no secret in the upper circles. They talk about leading the trend of the times, but who doesn't know what they really want to do?"
"It's nothing but daydreaming, just indulging in wishful thinking."
Xia Er shook his head and said.
Whether Adam wanted to become a god depended on his mood.
The lose-lose strategy invented by the "fool" perfectly suits the "spiritual needs" of "modern people".
A lose-lose situation is better than a win-lose one; the human heart is unfathomable, and so are daydreamers.
Does Mr. Fool also know this?
All eyes turned to the Fool.
"The Fool" Klein gave an awkward yet polite smile, maintaining a calm tone as he chuckled:
"The Church of the True God is also paying attention to this."
That's pure speculation. If the "angel" said that the upper echelons all know about it, then the church couldn't possibly not know, right?
Mr. Fool knew it too!
Is this why Mr. Fool is tracking down the Twilight Hermits?
Mr. Fool is not very supportive of the Twilight Hermits' "god-making" plan?
Both Audrey, the "Justice," and Alger, the "Hanged Man," have their own interpretations.
Seeing that everyone had processed the news, Xia Er cleared his throat and said:
"If any of you are in Backlund, please be careful lately."
Ok? ? ?
The hearts of the three—"The Fool," "Justice," and "The Magician"—stood on edge.
Is something big about to happen again?
"Do not be nervous."
"This is just a reminder to take the appropriate protective measures."
"Recently, the conflict between the eldest and third princes of Loen has intensified, the rift between the Conservative Party and the New Party in Backlund is widening, the rising middle class is increasingly concerned about Backlund's worsening air pollution problem, and the establishment of the Kingdom's Air Pollution Investigation Committee and the assassination of Duke Negan..."
"If nothing unexpected happens, a series of bills will be enacted to restrict factories from arbitrarily discharging pollutants and improve workers' working conditions. This is an inevitable trend that even some Conservative and New Party MPs cannot reverse. These MPs should also be aware of these issues."
"So before the bill is passed and implemented, those heavily polluting factories and businesses will definitely be a bit 'crazy,' trying to make as much money as possible before the rectification, at least to cover the cost of rectification."
"The climate after Backlund will probably be very, very bad."
Xia Er gave a brief analysis to the people in Backlund.
This is not hard to understand. It is normal for nobles and capitalists to do this. Even a noble with some foresight like Earl Hall would only notify the steel consortium he holds shares in to make changes in advance. As for the last frenzy before the bill is enacted... who cares?
Even if things are worse than they seem, it's not necessarily a bad thing; it would make it easier for the air pollution investigation committee to boost its performance record later.
"I think that must be terrible."
Audrey was the first to understand, and her family background made her more politically savvy. If almost all of Backlund's major polluting industries started 'unrestricted' emissions, who knows how bad Backlund's climate would be in a few days.
"This is almost unsolvable."
"World" said in a hoarse voice.
Given the current political system of the Kingdom of Rune, this is almost an unsolvable problem; the old and new nobles will not let go of this last window of opportunity.
"Ha, they'll also try to delay the enactment of the bill."
"When faced with tangible benefits, the conflict between the Conservative Party and the New Party can be temporarily alleviated."
Alger sneered, well aware of the way these nobles behaved.
Yes, so the subsequent plot is that the nobles who are "friendly" to the three major churches are insatiable, the witch church seizes the opportunity to spread the plague, the whole of Backlund falls into chaos, and George III personally steps in to take charge and overcomes the opposition to pass these reform bills ahead of schedule.
When "Ince Ayr" submitted the script, King George III was so pleased that he immediately bestowed upon him the extraordinary traits of a Death Path Sequence 3 Ferryman.
In this scenario, the third prince of the royal family doesn't need to collude with the witch to create a massive smog, the king doesn't need to be forced to make concessions, the Augustus family doesn't have to bear this stain, and can even use it to boost their reputation, allowing the king to stand on the moral high ground and temporarily suppress the nobles' opposition to implement some reforms.
As for the stain?
Everyone knows this is the result of the greed of those noble councilors in Backlund. Perhaps some of them are colluding with the Witch's Church or have been misled by it.
Backlund exposed his own weakness, so isn't it normal for the Witch Church to seize the opportunity to cause trouble?
If the three major churches have any objections, then they should go and talk to the noble groups that are "friendly" to you.
Xia'er's lips curled up slightly; she knew she had to shift the blame onto someone else.
The only regret seems to be that George III treated him fairly well?
But he's inherently rebellious and can't be tamed.
"The Magician" Fors then remembered that he still had a question to ask, so he quickly asked:
"Ladies and gentlemen, does anyone know how to solve the problem of excessive accumulation of extraordinary traits?"
"You were forced to drink the second dose of the Apprentice Potion?"
Alger immediately understood; he had had a similar experience.
Um, "more or less."
Fors nodded.
I can't answer that question.
"The only way I know is to have children, but this method is not very effective for low-order sequences. To meet your needs, you would need to have at least three or four children to be on the safe side."
Alger shrugged helplessly.
Audrey glanced at Fors with amusement. It takes 10 months to give birth to a child. It would be better to just use the role-playing method to digest the fetus. If you're lucky, it might only take two months.
Fors had also thought of this, and his smile seemed somewhat forced. Shael turned to look at Fors and said:
"Want to go out?"
"I can simplify the process so that you can complete the entire process in a few hours, and there won't actually be any offspring that need care."
