Age of Mysticism Chapter 549

  Chapter 549 Purging

   Qingkong's words opened up another way of thinking for Teresia, and she began to seriously consider the responsibilities she should bear.

  Staying in St. Lun City for such a long time allowed this holy angel to jump out of the circle of Sky City, and was able to examine the problems of the angels from a third-party perspective.

Archangel Archangel and Archangel Gold can see that the rule of the Shuojin people has left an indelible imprint on the angelic civilization. They want to return to the era when there was no dispute with the world, and turn the "justice" of the angels into Give romance to the world.

  The archangel headed by the Sword of Oath is trapped in the wounds of ancient wars. Although the war has ended for a thousand years, the extremes of "authority" and "justice" make their hearts still stuck on the battlefield and unable to extricate themselves. They are worshiped idols for young angels, thus creating the overall atmosphere of Sky City, even the Archangel can only compromise to a certain extent.

  With the recovery of the world tree, the revelation of artifacts, the turmoil of the source of divine power, and the increasingly intensified contradictions in the secular world, it seems that it is heralding the resurgence of a new all-out war. The contradiction that Sky City has been suppressing has naturally emerged, and the assassination of Archangel Elzerie by a holy angel brought this contradiction to the fore.

   Theresa has always believed that she is on the side of the sword of the oath, but now she has shaken her position.

  The first thing Teresia felt was fear!

  I am actually questioning the sword of the oath, questioning the belief I have been insisting on since I joined the Holy Tribunal.

  I actually have the idea of ​​changing the Holy Tribunal!

"Miss Weatherlight, this may be the way the secular world solves problems, but I can't accept it." Teresia took a deep breath to calm down the restlessness in her heart: "For angels, my changes are also pollution to angels. It's not like a real angel. Before I figure out my own changes, I don't know what kind of impact it will have if I bring the thoughts I accepted here into Sky City.

  It seems that I am not suitable to compete for the archangel. I should stay in the Holy Church in Saint Lun City and figure out what happened to me... that is what I should do. "

  Theresia's answer was beyond Qingkong's expectations. She thought that Theresia would compete for the Archangel after hearing what she said, but she didn't expect her ideological awareness to be so high.

"You have such an idea, which shows that human civilization has indeed had a great impact on you. Compared with when you directly led the angels to the city of St. Lun to surround the palace, there has been a subversive change." Qingkong did not continue to persuade Theresia to return. Sky City, anyway, the fire is on fire, and it won't make much difference if she is missing.

When Qingkong mentioned the embarrassing things she did, Teresia couldn't help laughing: "I used to be arrogant and ignorant, and looked at today's human civilization from the perspective of thousands of years ago. The more I know you now, the more I feel that the scenery at that time was How ridiculous. At that time, the eyes of Queen Christina and Princess Agatha should not be afraid, but amazed?"

  The atmosphere became more relaxed amid Teresia's self-mockery.

Clear Sky also laughed: "I was surprised, but also fearful. That's why so many extraordinary projects have been specially approved for execution, including the Golden Shield Warrior of the Empire, the extraordinary warriors jointly developed by the Oulu Academy and the Moonlight King's Court. major breakthrough.

  The Magic Titan independently developed by Raging City has already proved its practicality in the Emerald Forest.

  We should thank you. Without that stimulus, these studies that require a lot of investment and multi-departmental collaboration may take a long time to start. "

   Theresa's smile instantly turned into a wry smile.

   "I don't know if I created a strong enemy for Sky City. Let me tell you one thing, now Sky City is also forming a heroic army. I hope we will not be enemies in the future."

Clear Sky jokingly said: "I know that Sky City is forming a Legion of Heroic Spirits. Meteor told me that Raging Waves City has received a lot of orders for building Heroic Spirits' armed forces. Raging Waves City is working overtime for delivery and production to ensure quality and quantity on time. for you."

   Theresia was a little dumbfounded: "Meteor knows that those are the components of the Heroic Spirit Armament? How is this possible! I clearly placed the order anonymously, and the components were also split to different alchemy manufacturing factories for production.

   This can also be seen! "

  Clear Sky sipped tea: "Teresia, you still have a lot to learn in St. Lun City. Even if there is a war in the future, it will definitely not be like the ancient war you know, it will be more complicated.

  Politics, economy, military, intelligence, technology, public opinion... All known and unknown fields will be the battlefield for competition. Sky City's formation of the Heroic Spirit Legion only strengthened its military strength, and it lagged far behind the Shuojin people in other aspects.

  I dare to assert that if the angels and the shimmering gold people start a war now, the winner will still be the shimmering gold people. "

   Theresia asked vigilantly: "Now that the Golden Shield Empire is challenging the Shuojin people, does it mean that you think that the Golden Shield Empire is also stronger than Sky City?"

   "Let me correct it... The Golden Shield Empire did not challenge the Shuojin people, but the Golden Shield Empire only challenged the World Bank. These are two concepts, and now the economic confrontation is the main one, and the military confrontation is supplemented.

  The St. Lun City Branch of Oulu College is going to start a political and economic elective course. Imperial economists and some officials are invited to explain the current situation in detail. My original intention was to let my students know more about current affairs, if you are interested in this course, you can sign up for it. "

  Hearing that Qingkong invited herself to attend class, Teresia thought about it seriously and said, "Okay, I'll take it! When will this elective course start?"

   "Soon, I will send someone to send the curriculum to the church. If you are still interested in military affairs and intelligence, I can ask the chief minister of Meteorite to give you a few places to sit in on the intelligence department of the Imperial Military Academy and Secret Intelligence Bureau.

   Your angels are also idle when they are idle, so it is better to learn more. After you consider your identity, maybe you can rely on your current team to return to Sky City at a critical moment to turn the tide! "

  Teresia looked at the clear sky with a very strange expression.

   "Do you want to use human civilization to influence me more deeply?"

Qing Kong said indifferently: "Angels have proved that romantic justice without force support is a castle in the air that can be destroyed at any time; now authoritative justice is more like the ideological aftermath of the colonial era. Fallen angels are neither white nor black, and it is obvious that they completely abandon justice. It is not a path that can be accepted by angels; hunting angels is even less advisable.

  In my opinion, the angels have not yet found a path of their own. Malus recognized this, and so he cherished every moment of absorbing every piece of knowledge he could see. He broke off his own wings in thought and truly completed self-change, which is also what you think is pollution, and his purpose is to find a suitable position for angels. I think he's going to be a great philosopher, but not what it takes to be a leader..."

   "I regret coming to see you this time!" The stable belief just now was shaken again, and Teresia said angrily, "You made me wonder what I am now!"

  Qing Kong asked: "Are these classes still available?"

"superior!"

   "Then pay the tuition!"

  Teresia walked out of the museum holding a payment receipt. She looked back at this retro building and couldn't help but smile wryly.

   This step goes out without knowing what the future holds.

  Perhaps what happened to the fallen angels was their own end.

   Still... why not go back to Sky City to fight for the Archangel!

  Teresia, dressed in human uniform, got into the carriage, and she was going back to the church to arrange for the angels to report to various schools.

  Clear Sky stood by the window and watched the carriage of the church go away, and planted a seed in a flowerpot.

   I don't know what kind of fruit I can bear.

  Suddenly, there were a large number of cars from the Secret Service roaring by on the street outside. The ferocious imperial spies quickly blocked the street and occupied the high point, and someone ordered everyone to leave the street immediately with a loudspeaker...

  Clear Sky called Jennifer: "The Secret Service is going to arrest people! Close all doors and windows of the museum, set up barriers, watch the children, no one is allowed to go out, and no one is allowed to enter!"

   "Yes, Miss Skylight!"

  The museum was completely closed for a short period of time.

   City of St. Lun.

  Under the long-planned planning of the Imperial Secret Service, the imperial agents completed the martial law of the whole city in a very short period of time. The roads are completely blocked, and citizens are either confined to their homes or find places to confine them on the spot.

  The next step is to arrest people.

  The goal is to prevent the new emperor from enthroning during the celebration. The Bureau of Secret Intelligence has identified the masterminds, and those who have been brought in to cause trouble and sabotage, are all surrounded by imperial agents in their residences.

  Short battles broke out in some places, but the rebels were quickly suppressed by well-prepared imperial agents.

   One by one, the criminals walked out of the house under the **** of the imperial spies, pulled into the prepared prison car, and then drove to the headquarters of the Imperial Secret Service.

  At this time, the celebration was approaching, and all the people who needed to be arrested were concentrated in the imperial capital, so it took less than a day for the Imperial Secret Service to complete the suppression and arrest. The blockade was lifted in the evening, as if nothing happened.

  In the dungeon of the headquarters of the Imperial Secret Service, the darkness and thick **** smell intensified the terrifying atmosphere here.

  Because a lot of prisoners have been added today, and some of them have very special identities, a lot of guards have been specially added.

  The prisoners were very restless. They cursed loudly, showed their identities with badges and other symbols, and demanded that the spies release themselves immediately, otherwise what would happen...

   Some people even revealed their royal identity: "I am the nephew of Emperor Augustine, and the duty of your Secret Service is to protect the royal family! Let me out quickly, I want to see Her Royal Highness, and I want to see His Royal Highness Alec!"

   "Are you insane in the Secret Affairs Bureau? Are you planning to rebel? Even Lord Gabriel dares to arrest him. He is the former chief minister of the empire!

   Let the meteor come! I want to question him face to face, what crime did we commit, and why should the Secret Service arrest us! "

  Gabriel, the former chief assistant of the empire, was sitting in the corner of a prison cell. He kept silent, letting other people make noise there, calmly as if he was not in a prison, but his own home.

   After a while, a group of imperial agents came outside the cell. They opened the cell door and violently pushed everyone else against the wall.

  A detective walked up to Gabriel and saluted very politely: "Master Gabriel, His Royal Highness the Princess wants to see you!"

   Gabriel looked up at the spies, then stood up. He patted the folds of the clothes on his body and the straw stained with them, stretched out his hand and said to the inspector, "Take me to meet His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess!"

  At this time, Agatha was sitting in the interrogation room of the dungeon, the light from the chandelier above her head shone on her face, showing the coldness of the intelligence chief.

   Gabriel, who was in shackles, was brought in by spies.

   "Sit down, Gabriel."

Gabriel sat down opposite the interrogation table. He placed the chain heavily on the iron table, and asked first: "Agatha! Which imperial law have I violated to make you treat me and those who have dedicated themselves to the empire like this? Officials and nobles who have lived their lives!

  We are all trusted ministers of Emperor Augustine, are you going to persecute us like this in order to steal the empire? "

   Agatha saw that Gabriel was still stubborn, so she took out a stack of documents and threw it in front of him.

   "Gabriel, these are the crimes related to you collected by the Imperial Secret Service during your tenure as an imperial official and as the chief assistant.

   These include, but are not limited to, bribery, favoritism, cover-up, persecution, embezzlement, and murder. My royal father knew about these crimes, but he still protected you..."

Without waiting for Agatha to finish speaking, Gabriel roared emotionally: "It is His Majesty who protects me, and I will dedicate all my loyalty to His Majesty. I will never see Your Majesty's empire being stolen by you, Not to mention that you are all suspected of regicide!

  Agatha, you were blinded by a meteor!

  You are giving him the empire of the Augustinian family with your own hands!

  Now is the last chance to save the Empire...Let us out, and we will make you Empress of the Empire. "

Agatha said calmly: "Gabriel, we didn't kill the king. It was the emperor who chose to die. Meteor once offered me to be the queen, but I refused, so we chose Queen Christina. "

  Gabriel said excitedly: "You don't want to become the queen, but you can make your brother Alec the emperor of the empire. Queen Christina is a puppet of Meteor, can't you see it?"

   "Let Alec become emperor?" Agatha sneered, "Does the empire continue to support you vampires?

   Each of you will only profit for yourself and your own family, and some of you are only for the empire in your heart! "

   Gabriel retorted: "Isn't Meteor also for his own profit? Look at the current court, all of them belong to him!"

  Agatha shook her head and smiled wryly: "You people are selfish and think that everyone in the world is just like you. Talking about ideals with you will make me look like a fool.

  I saw you this time, just to give you one last chance, after all, you did contribute to the rise of the empire.

   Plead guilty, you and most of the others can return to your hometown alive. "

Gabriel looked at the crimes in front of him and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I have been able to sit in the position of chief assistant for so many years, but you can't just convict me casually. You have charged me with so many crimes, can you Show evidence?"

  Agatha put away her smile: "Gabriel, the opportunity has been given to you, if you don't cherish it...don't blame me!"

   Gabriel's complexion changed: "Agatha, what do you want to do? I'm..."

   Before Gabriel could finish speaking, the spy behind him stuck a needle into his neck artery. Following the injection of the liquid, Gabriel quickly lowered his head.

  Agatha waved her hand: "Pick it up and replace it!"
