Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

It's coming, it's coming, the mission is finally here.

Dean felt as if he could see the moonlight after the clouds cleared, and he almost burst into tears.

Since traveling to the Middle Ages, the system has become particularly stingy, and Dean even feels abandoned by the system.

Finally, with his unremitting efforts, the system gave him another heavyweight task.

Dean's hunch was correct. The Duplesi in front of him would definitely be a big figure who would leave his name in history. This was evident from the task name released by the system.

Dean has never received a mission with a country's name on it!

While Dean was browsing the assignment, Du Plessis briefly left the living room, but left his pet cat behind.

Dean felt that an opportunity had come. The "Cat Language Proficiency" skill he had learned from Filch could finally be put to use.

So when Du Plessis returned to the living room with two cups of freshly brewed black tea, he found that Dean was communicating "eagerly" with Sara.

"Try the black tea I brewed by myself." Du Plessis placed one cup on the table in front of Dean and explained with a smile: "In order to create a quiet environment, I sent out all the servants. I hope I didn’t neglect you.”

"I feel very honored to be able to drink tea brewed by you." Through in-depth communication with Sarah, Dean felt that he almost knew how to complete the task.

"Sara seems to like you very much. She has always been very cold to strangers." Du Plessis noticed that Sara kept walking under his and Dean's feet with her tail raised. Normally, she only appeared when Sara was very happy. This is how you play when you are young.

"I also feel that I have a good rapport with Sarah." Dean was very satisfied with the effect of using "Cat Language Proficiency" and got a lot of exclusive information from Sarah.

"I must admit that it is a very pleasant thing to communicate with you." Du Plessis smiled. "No wonder some people say that the fastest way for two strangers to become friends is to have a common hobby."

In Du Plessis's opinion, playing with the cat made their relationship quickly become harmonious.

"Let's continue the previous topic. I think the book "The Main Principles of Defense of the Church's Faith" is inconsistent with what it says. Although it is written about church beliefs, there are many references to Protestant doctrines between the lines. It is more like It is a popular reading book about Protestantism. It is not difficult to see that you actually admire Protestantism quite a lot." After suppressing his inner excitement, Dean chose to tell the truth and express his true views.

"Is there any more?" Du Plessis was noncommittal, his hands subconsciously stroking Sarah who jumped onto his lap.

"Perhaps you want to find some ways from the Protestant teachings to improve the church's existing canons?" Dean guessed.

After Du Plessis raised his eyebrows, he continued to ask calmly: "Is there any more?"

"From what you wrote, I see that you seem to want to take advantage of Protestantism?" Dean asked.

"What can I do with Protestantism?" Du Plessis finally showed some interest.

"The church's power in France is very stable..." Dean said thoughtfully, "but it has encountered strong challenges from Protestantism in other places."

"For example..." Duplesi's eyes seemed to light up.

"For example, the neighboring Habsburg royal family." Dean recalled a detail. In the blank spaces of Du Plessis's notes, which were not included in the main text, there were some scattered words recording his thoughts at the time. From these unsystematic In his writings, Dean discovered that he was deeply worried about the growing power of the Habsburg royal family.

By the way, Dean learned about the Habsburg royal family in future Germany and found that they inherited many territories through marriage and occupied almost the entire central Europe. The Kingdom of France was basically under heavy siege.

What is even more interesting is that the Habsburg royal family themselves were loyal believers in the church, but in the territories they later inherited, many believed in Protestantism.

Therefore, based on some details revealed in the system mission, Dean guessed that Du Plessis might want to get rid of his current dormant predicament by becoming a hero of France.

Finding a way for France to overthrow the Habsburg royal family's dominance in Europe is undoubtedly a shortcut.

The strongest fortresses are always breached from within.

If Du Plessis wants to succeed, the best way is of course to find a way to cause internal strife in the Habsburg royal family. The contradiction between Protestantism and the church is undoubtedly a good breakthrough.

Combining the information he had obtained from Sara before, Dean quickly clarified his thoughts and began to talk.

"...So as long as the Protestant territories under the Habsburg royal family are provoked and put into internal strife, the Kingdom of France can take advantage of the situation and become the overlord of Europe. It is not impossible. ." Dean concluded.

Judging from Du Plessis's expression, he was very satisfied.

"Then there is one last question." Du Plessis's eyes were filled with a flame called "desire for power." "France itself is also a country that believes in the church. If it openly supports the Protestantism under the Habsburg royal family, Territory, I’m afraid there will be trouble—those big nobles are not vegetarians.”

"I believe you can convince them with your eloquence." Dean had already heard about Du Plessis's plan from Sarah, so it was particularly easy to say it; "You should put France's national interests first and don't let religious sentiments overwhelm you." Affects your foreign policy. From the perspective of France’s national interests, the Protestant countries have never been the main enemy, the Habsburg royal family who believes in the church is!"

"What should we do if a big noble is deceived by his own interests and refuses to submit?" Du Plessis asked.

"Win some of them together and attack some of them, you should be able to grasp them easily." Dean said simply.

Before he finished speaking, a "ding" sound came from the system, reminding him that the task of "Du Plessi's Soulmate" was completed. While gaining 3 skill points, Du Plessi's favorability +50, activated Di Plessi Lacey's bond.

Du Plessis' bond: As a future minister of the Kingdom of France, Du Plessis has very great power. The amount you can obtain from him or the corresponding resources is related to your favorability with him and the extent of his power.

Looking at the system rewards, Dean felt a little incredible. Du Plessis was actually a powerful minister in the Kingdom of France in the future?His poor historical knowledge prevents him from remembering which historical figure Du Plessis corresponds to.

The system quickly threw out the follow-up to the series of tasks:

“Session 2: The Rise of Du Plessis.

While your words gained Du Plessis's trust, they also ignited his already irrepressible ambition and helped him take the first step towards becoming a powerful minister in France.

Reward: 3 skill points.Duplesi's favorability level increases (the degree of increase is related to the completion of the task), and the next part of the task starts.If it fails, the task is closed. "

Dean felt awe-struck. Seeing this, the system was implying that he had to push Di Plessis on his path to power?
