MTL - Don’t Confiscate My Citizenship-Chapter 601 Loren it hurts so much

Chapter 601 Loren’s pain is too painful

“Today is the forty-second day since you came to this shadow world.”

"The Horning Empire not only successfully occupied the neighboring Kingdom of Bliss, but the Kingdom of Fuklo and the Kingdom of Edith on the east and west sides have now been infiltrated. The Paulant Empire was retreating steadily on the frontal battlefield. This battle Our army has suffered 30,000 casualties and nearly a thousand magic cannons. The ports in the northern mainland strait have also fallen into the hands of the vampires. It has become an established fact that the Horning Empire will launch a new offensive against our country or neighboring countries."

“What’s worse is that the parliament’s trust in you has dropped to an unprecedented low, and you will be impeached in the no-confidence vote that will be held tomorrow.”

 “This afternoon’s speech is your last chance.”

“Success or failure depends on this one move, your fate has been bound to Loren.”

Boss Cat stood on Lan Qi’s desk, fiddling with his Nixie tube timer and broadcasting reports to him.

 It’s noon in the prime minister’s office in Helsalem.

 After the curtains were drawn, the room was slightly dim, and the Nixie tube timer light emitted a saturated orange-red light, lighting up the final countdown like lava.

 Lanci sat alone behind an old-fashioned wooden desk, surrounded by densely packed files and portfolios.

“It is indeed time for me to speak in the House of Commons.”

 It reveals that love is the essence of God, and that God’s love is unconditional, perfect, and eternal.

 The concept of the Trinity is also related to the idea of ​​salvation in the Eucharistic Church.

Lan Qi said with a smile.

 The cat boss opened his bright cat eyes.

 “Somewhere in the Horning Empire, ten thousand suns will rise.”

 Salvation is the joint action of all the persons of God to save mankind.

It always feels that the legendary high-level epic cards that are far away are too simple. After all, it never dreamed of getting epic-level props before!

Lanci's face was illuminated diagonally by the Nixie tube on the table. No one knew what he was thinking, and his gaze seemed to penetrate the direction of the Capitol.

"Meow meow?!"

The faint hum of the timer echoed in the quiet room, reminding them of the passage of precious time.

It feels like nothing happens when the button is pressed.

 After the cat boss rolled around on the table, he confirmed again.

But it’s okay, as long as it can get rewards.

From Lan Qi’s mysterious tone, there should be some changes after pressing this button.

Lanqi gently stroked Boss Cat’s head and said to him.

“Press this button and your contribution to the shadow world will take off. You may be able to get epic rewards that match your level.”

Lanqi picked up the cat boss and said kindly to him.

 After opening it, there is only a small communication device inside, and above it is a button with three sacred patterns twisted and spliced ​​together.

 Before he picked up the cat boss, he took down a magic device box full of forbidden items from the cabinet on the side of the room.

"Meow!"

 Hibati are encouraged to imitate God's love and strive to embody love and harmony.

 “What is this, meow!”

 Three hours later.

  He also thought that Lan Qi said that he would help him increase his contribution points to make him happy. Unexpectedly, Lan Qi kept him in mind and liked him so much!

“Really? By pressing it, can I hope to get the epic reward?”

The cat boss raised his paw and slapped the button without hesitation.

The support of the wartime cabinet for the resistance movement no longer exists, and a peace agreement is being drafted, and even the right of passage has been postponed, and the alliance with the demons has not been approved for the time being.

“Yes, press it and many people will be happy.”

 This button is the last step to realize great love.

 The cat boss curiously circled around and clicked on the communication device.

 It doesn’t understand.

ˆ Two days have passed since he returned to the capital Helsalem from Birkinghe County on the northern border. Lanqi has already completed all the docking work with the substitute and arranged the final agenda.

 The concept of the Trinity represents the community between the Father, the Son of Man, and the Holy Spirit, that is, the community of love.

 The cat boss was rolling around happily.

 “Cat Cat, please press this button.”

"Meow?"

Boss Cat asked, looking around nervously.

Lanqi nodded, opened a copy of the Gospel of Sacraments on the table, and said firmly.

 “Then what? What will happen after pressing it?”

Lanci stood up, walked around the long table, went to the coat rack and took off his coat.

 The Father sent the Son to save mankind, and the work of the Holy Spirit in individuals and the church helps to realize this plan of salvation.

 …

　　present world.

In the heart of the Kingdom of Hutton, the Old Bree Tribunal along the walls of Icerita, a building immersed in history, was lightly brushed by an unidentified dawn blue-gray in the dark hours of the morning before dawn.

At this moment, the world has not yet fully woken up, but the Old Bree Tribunal is already waiting silently at the edge of time, preparing for an urgent hearing on the new day.

The time zone of the Darkest Solar Eclipse Demon Realm in the Seventh-Level Shadow World is about twelve hours different from the current world. If it is five or six o'clock in the morning in the current world, then it will be five or six o'clock in the evening in the Shadow World.

There are less than seventy-two hours left in the Shadow World, and basically everything is a foregone conclusion.

　　In the courtroom, traditional wooden paneling and heavy red curtains stand tall. The statue of the God of Light and Law stands at the end of the hall, as if her eyes are also watching the upcoming hearing.

　In this solemn morning, Loren had long been standing alone in the center of the court.

He is now a frequent visitor to the trial court. The rare stubble on his tired and weathered face adds a touch of worldly smoke to his former gentleness and handsomeness.

As an eighth-level high priest, he is like walking on thin ice.

“This seventh-order shadow world is basically hopeless. Let alone one percent, even 0.1% is out of reach.”

“Judging from the image that Loren’s student opened last time, it’s all nonsense.”

There is almost no natural light outside the court window, and the chatter in the jury box echoes like ghostly whispers lingering in the ears.

“Today may be the last hearing, Lorenzo, are you ready?”

 The judge's gavel struck, and the discussions stopped abruptly, and a dead silence enveloped every corner.

The presiding judge, Duke Akares, waved his hand gently, and the crystal ball-shaped magic instrument on the side of the trial court lit up at the same moment, projecting the last scene of the shadow world.

 In the thick mist, the outline of Helsalem, the capital of Pollant, is looming.

The bells of Hull's clock tower rang in the quiet and tense air, reminding the Pollant people that the darkest hour had arrived. Then the scene shifts to the Paulante Reichstag, where the tension is almost palpable.

 Politicians no longer argue fiercely, and their faces look particularly serious in the dim light.

In the sky, there were heavy clouds. Occasionally, the Horning Empire's flying dragon warriors could be seen flying across the sky. The streets were already filled with trenches.

This is the information about the shadow world left by Loren’s students when they started the live broadcast for the last time—

  【Mission Objective 1: Find the key to defeat the Vampires, completed. 】

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　focused on'. At the end of the Shadow World, increase the human side's winning chance against the vampire side to more than 1%, the current winning rate is 0.0007%. 】

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 wound down in in on-out-in-one challenger 3: All challengers must survive until the end of the 45-day time limit, and 3/3 of them are currently alive. 】

 Task objective 1 has been completed.

 But the most core task 2 has not only made no progress, but has also regressed.

  【Current status of the Paulante Empire】

  【Public support: 586→705/1000 (popular support and cohesion)】

  【House: 175→32/1000 (support rate of high-level officials within the Pollant Empire)】

  【Military strength: 199/1000 (using the Horning Empire as a reference)】

 【Finance: 325→337/1000 (the current productivity status of the Paulant Empire)】

  【Diplomacy: 232/1000 (diplomatic relations with the demon world and surrounding countries that have not yet surrendered)】

 【Comprehensive odds of winning: 0.0007%】

 After Lanqi returned to the Polante Empire, [Public support] was still growing steadily, but it didn't help.

 The three items of [military power], [finance] and [diplomacy] basically remain unchanged.

 The most fatal thing is that the [House] item directly fell below the warning line of 100, which means that the shadow world has entered an uncontrollable runaway mode.

 The odds of winning dropped from 0.0074% back to 0.0007%.

As expected, the helpless Loren students will soon be impeached, and by then this seventh-order shadow world will come to an end!

 And a terrible natural disaster will come somewhere in this world.

 “I…know it well.”

Loren looked at the cold screen, took a deep breath, and tried to calm the waves in her heart.

"Loren, your student has now completely collapsed the shadow world. Do you admit that he was taught by you, and that you have an unshirkable responsibility for the rash entry into the shadow world and his failure?"

The Minister of Justice of the Kingdom of Hutton, Duke Akares, has a serious expression.

"…yes."

 Loren choked up a little.

 In fact, Lan Qi was not taught by him, but at this time, it was even more impossible for him to shirk the responsibility to the students, because Lan Qi could not bear this responsibility, and he did not want to ruin Lan Qi's future.

 “Everything is under my command.”

 Loren lowered his head and said.

His words seemed to be arguing with reality, and every word was as heavy as a thousand stones.

"Okay, Loren, since you said so, I won't ask you any more or state too many causes, processes, and results. The United Parliament of the Southern Continent Kingdom, the Shadow World Management Association, the Southern Continent Disaster Prevention Agency, and the Kingdom of Hutton The joint investigation team composed of the Security Bureau and other departments has produced a very detailed investigation report."

The presiding judge, Duke Akares, continued.

The conclusion was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of everyone in the trial court again and again.

　　The trial bell rang in the old Bree courthouse, and the thin light intertwined with the heavy air.

 People’s eyes were focused on Loren, as if the weight of the hearing was entirely on him.

The entire Hutton Kingdom was also waiting with bated breath at this moment. Even early in the morning, the broadcast of the crucial hearing began.

Even in the trial court and the audience, there were still a few eyes full of concern for him, but these were just a drop in the ocean and could not reverse the torrent of public opinion.

At the judgment seat, the Holy Knight Captain of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny, who came all the way from the Kingdom of Canberra, clenched his hands tightly.

At this moment, she was not wearing the heavy armor of the past, but a light dress, so Loren didn't recognize her at all.

 “Best friend…”

Until now, the Holy Knight Commander believed that her best friend was a mature and stable person who would not make such a mistake. Although she wanted to stand up and say a few words to Loren, she came to the United Kingdom with the important task of investigating the mysterious cardinal by the United Kingdom Council. She from the Hutton Kingdom couldn't favor her own people regardless of public or private matters at this moment and bring down the entire Church of Destiny.

 She turned her head sideways with great inner struggle and stopped looking at Loren.

At this moment, I just feel that everything has stopped, and I feel like I am sitting on pins and needles.

The hearing came to an end before the first ray of sunshine in the morning came, and everything fell silent again.

Just when people thought that a generation of noble priests would be ruined.

The giant open-air screen that had been showing the morning news in the Hutton Kingdom turned pitch black, and then began to show an emergency movie world scene.

 Suddenly attracted some attention.

 The Shadow World that can be inserted at this time will definitely not be a trivial matter.

Hearing the sound, more and more people in the trial court looked at the projection screen.

It turned out that it was indeed Lan Qi who started the live broadcast of the Shadow World again!

 “This should be the last live broadcast of Shadow World.”

 “I think Loren’s students should also mean the same thing.”

“Is there any need to struggle with a winning rate of 0.0007%?”

 The hearing was temporarily suspended, and whispers gradually filled the courtroom and the audience.

In the picture, the setting sun gradually sets in the west, and the afterglow shines on the Helsalem River. The golden light and the river surface are sparkling. The Parliament Building next to it, with its spire against the sunset, is still shrouded in a layer of uneasiness. Under the shadow.

 The sound of air raid sirens came from time to time, bringing a bit of horror and uncertainty to this quiet evening.

 The usual bustling scene around the Capitol is no longer replaced by heavy troops and a sparse presence of reporters.

They either stopped and gazed at the afterglow of the setting sun on the Helsalem River, or silently looked up at the Parliament Building, praying for the Empire in their hearts.

This afternoon, at the House of Commons in Helsalem, there will be a speech by Prime Minister Wilford, which will be broadcast nationwide.

Three days before the lecture, various media began to report enthusiastically, and people from all walks of life were eagerly waiting for its arrival.

The Prime Minister's situation in the War Cabinet is now well known to everyone in the Pollant Empire.

This speech.

 Also described by the media as a possible prime minister—

 Last speech.
