Calamity Game: Cleanup Man?no i'm the villain
Chapter 593 The empire is about to collapse
Tiger continent, empire.
On the way to the conference hall, a group of nobles were discussing.
A nobleman with three purple lines on his cuffs said to his companions: "Have you heard? It is said that the damn executioner suffered severe injuries and is in danger of dying at any time!"
Hearing what he said, another companion with two golden lines on his sleeves responded: "Holy Mother, this is really a great thing! I have already said that the executioner who overturned the icon will You will definitely be punished by God!"
"Quiet!" Another man with red stripes on his sleeves stopped him: "Don't you know that both the prime minister and the emperor don't like faith? It's a blessing to be able to acquiesce to the holy religion to enter the conference hall. The executioner has fallen. You Aren't you afraid that his men will go to your house in the middle of the night?"
Upon hearing this, the noble with golden lines fell silent for an instant.
The entire empire is now divided into three parts, which is something everyone knows.
Emperor, prime minister, holy religion.
The Emperor has the greatest power of the three, and has even established an organization called the Imperial Hand for this purpose.
"The hand of the Empire holds the Emperor's sword tightly and kills all those who disobey the Emperor's orders."
This is a rule that all nobles must remember after joining the center of power.
Otherwise, the executioner wearing a red coat will appear near you and take away your life.
In order to prevent this terror from spreading endlessly, the Prime Minister, who controls the key economic circulation of the empire, came into contact with the Holy Religion, which had been spreading its faith outside, and introduced it into the council chamber on the grounds of economic development.
From that moment on, the Emperor was shackled and the killings at the hands of the Empire were curbed.
Thus, five relatively peaceful years began.
The emperor controls the vast majority of the military and the highest say in politics, the prime minister controls the economy, and the holy religion has a large number of believers.
However, these five peaceful years ended five days ago.
The blind believers of the Holy Religion moved the church less than three hundred meters away from the conference hall, and the emperor was furious.
Although the prime minister said he was not happy, he chose to remain silent in order to unite with the Holy Religion to restrain the emperor, but he still secretly agreed with the actions of the imperial hand.
Both of them understand that the foundation of this country is not bullshit belief at all, but the majority of people have faith, and the current situation is a last resort.
In this way, the church was destroyed, and the statue of the Virgin standing in the church was destroyed in front of everyone by the leader of the Imperial Hand, who was probably the most cruel executioner in history.
This move triggered retaliation from extreme fanatical believers.
As a result, due to a deliberate conspiracy, the leader of the Imperial Hand was seriously injured, and the news currently circulating is that he has never woken up.
"I heard that the bishop has started to challenge the emperor through public opinion. What do you think the final result will be?"
"It's hard to say. It depends on the prime minister's final intention. An uncle of mine is a soldier in the army. I heard from him that the food in the army has suddenly improved a lot recently."
"Do you suspect that the prime minister has begun to win over the army?"
"What are you talking about? I haven't told you anything, okay. I'm afraid you are just worshiping those unfounded things every day."
"For the sake of our relationship, I warn you, don't continue to say such things in front of me next time. The Holy Mother exists and is watching each of us?"
"Including the emperor?"
"Bag……"
Just when he was about to speak, another person next to him patted his shoulder.
"We're in front of the palace, be silent."
The nobles who had been chattering just now were all silent now.
One staircase further ahead is the conference hall.
Some are already imagining what will happen inside next.
The leader of the holy religion will continue to recount the evil deeds of five days ago, and the emperor will sneer at it, and then the prime minister will come out to smooth things over.
As for them, they just need to follow the people they serve and follow their will.
Recently, many people have become tired of this endless wrangling and have chosen to stay in their own manors, just waiting for the final winner to appear.
Anyone with a slightly keen sense of smell can see that the empire is likely to be completely divided.
In this way, the mighty nobles walked into the council chamber and slowly took their seats in their usual seats.
After the seats were almost full, a tall and handsome man in purple slowly stood up and spoke with a smile.
"Bishop, this is clearly because you Holy Religion believers violated the laws of the empire first. Since you are the subjects of the empire, you must abide by the laws of the empire!"
Opposite the prime minister, the holy bishop, dressed in pure white holy robes, stood up slowly with his scepter in hand.
"Destroying the statue of Our Lady is the greatest blasphemy to all our believers! No matter what, we must show the heads of those who blaspheme!"
"Well, what you are saying... I have been retaliated by believers to the point where I am still bedridden. Whether I can survive or not is a question. Otherwise, let's forget about it."
The prime minister continued to smooth things over.
“Only by being kind can you make money.”
"Wealth is worthless in the face of faith!"
The prime minister was also a little annoyed when he heard this. He was trying to smooth things over here, but the pig teammates on the opposite side didn't cooperate?
"If you didn't need to fight against the emperor, do you really think you could enter the capital of the empire?" the prime minister thought darkly.
Immediately, he turned his gaze to the back of the conference hall.
On the tall throne, the emperor was sitting there calmly, and everything just below seemed not to be heard by him.
To him, it was just two clowns performing on each other.
wealth? When the time comes, when the army steps through, all the wealth will be collected.
Belief? The so-called faith is not worth mentioning in front of the sharp sword. Those so-called icons are not even as good as the stone sculptures placed in the garden!
However, the emperor was waiting for an opportunity, so why not the other two?
Three notes with completely different contents were sent to the hands of the three leading figures.
After reading the contents on the note, the prime minister and the bishop suddenly smiled.
Only the emperor, after seeing the above content, a hint of gloom flashed across his calm face.
"Emperor." The prime minister suddenly said: "When we first absorbed the Holy Cult into the capital, we promised the other party that we would not interfere with or destroy their churches. But now that someone is destroying them, we should really teach them a lesson."
Changing his face was like turning a page in a book. At this moment, the prime minister was already on the side of the bishop.
After saying this, the prime minister immediately looked towards the bishop, hoping that the other party could follow his steps and put some pressure on the emperor.
It's a pity that pig teammates will always be pig teammates. Previously, the bishop could not see the steps of the prime minister, and it is naturally the same now.
In other words, the bishop no longer has any thoughts on this conference hall. He just wants to return to the church headquarters as soon as possible.
The cooperation expected by the prime minister and the bishop did not appear. Instead, the emperor suddenly made suggestions that were in line with the bishop's expectations.
"Is there anything else? If not, today's meeting will end here and the rest of the scattered matters will be handled by ourselves."
Upon hearing this, the bishop immediately stood up and left, and the group of nobles who belonged to him also left with him.
This operation made the prime minister dumbfounded again, and the depression suddenly stuck in his chest and could not be vented.
Obviously he had the best opportunity just now. If it goes well, he can at least cut off the empire's hand forever.
Unfortunately, this opportunity was postponed because of the pig teammate Bishop. The next meeting is five days later.
"These magic sticks are really useless at all!"
Fortunately, he still had this valuable piece of news, otherwise the prime minister really felt that he might be depressed to death.
After resigning to the emperor, the prime minister and his group also left the conference hall one after another.
The moment he stepped out of the door, he opened the note in his hand again.
It clearly says: "One-third of the legions are already willing to join our camp."
This is also the reason why the prime minister suddenly changed his mind.
He knew that money alone was not enough. The army and force were the foundation.
The emperor has been waiting for the opportunity to hold back his troops, just so that after he is killed, the empire's economy will not collapse.
Just like not taking action against the bishop, they are worried about the reaction of fanatical believers.
"Emperor, you are a step too slow after all..."
Relying on his hard work over the years, the prime minister successfully used money to win over the army.
"Next, cut off the funds of you damn god, and see what you use to expand the church! What you use to give alms to your tens of thousands of people!"
The prime minister looked at the retreating bishop and smiled sinisterly.
As for what information the bishop received that made the other party leave so eagerly, he no longer cared.
He already has the biggest chips on the poker table, so why should he care about this?
"Money power, money power, how can you have power without money?"
After asking himself questions, the prime minister left the conference hall area.
Back in the conference hall, the emperor was still sitting on the throne with a gloomy expression.
The piece of paper in his hand was crinkled abnormally.
There are three pieces of information above: The prime minister used a large amount of money to buy off one-third of the army. The Holy Religion states that the Son descended from the light and performed a miracle to repair a man's severed finger. The pharmacist has returned secretly from the Imperial Hand headquarters, and the leader (the leader of the Imperial Hand, referred to as the leader, will also appear later, it is not a typo) has confirmed that there is no hope of treatment.
Obviously, the two thought they had deceived the emperor and gained a huge lead, but in fact, their every move had been under the emperor's nose.
It's a pity that after seeing it, the emperor could only watch it happen.
The two clowns were now qualified to step into the spotlight, come in front of him, and swing their swords at him.
Thinking of this, the emperor's hand held the throne harder and harder, and the sound of shattering came from the throne.
The emperor, who had ruled the empire for thousands of days and moons, was angry at the moment, but there was nothing he could do.
The empire will collapse at any time.
