But in the final analysis, this kind of unconscious fault does not require a direct atonement with death, which is the most troublesome part.
If Yang Hao knew Lady Lalumia's psychological activities, he would immediately understand that this is actually the problem faced by heavy truck drivers on Earth when passers-by peek out.
Either you step on the accelerator and try to kill the person when you cannot avoid the accident, or you can use insurance to pay the money in one go to avoid trouble in the future.
Or you try to brake as hard as you can, but end up paralyzing the person, and the money you have to pay in the end is more than if the person died, and you will be annoyed to no end—
So, what to do
Everyone looked at each other, and finally, accompanied by the sound of Nalujia snoring while drinking juice, they decided to leave the decision to Yang Hao.
"What do you think, Yang Hao?"
"What do you think?"
"What do you think, kid?"
"Inquiry: Yang Hao, what do you think?"
The four women's simultaneous questioning made the man look at the corner of his mouth in a strange way.
He picked up his own cup of water on the table and took a sip of hot tea. Then he glared at Arthur and Doctor Joseph who were of no help at all. He glanced at Natalia who was stroking Naruga's hair, and sighed heavily.
"Let's first see what to do - after all, this is our first time killing a god, and this is also the first time we encounter such difficulties... We must handle it with caution.
After all, no matter what, it means that in the other option that is completely opposite, those possible benefits will never be obtained again... So, everyone, share your thoughts, right? "
"You are really vague?" Finn curled her lips, looking a little unhappy, and was already thinking about what to do tonight.
"I call this comprehensive consideration - just like whether to cook or roast a whole chicken. If it is roasted, we can't eat the boiled one, and if it is boiled, we can't eat the roasted one... What should we do if we don't discuss and come to a conclusion?"
"Yes, yes, yes - so let's all share our opinions, right? If I were to say it first, my personal suggestion is to kill the God of Light who is stuck in the body and Cecilia together when the God of Light takes over the body. To prevent future troubles. What do you think?"
He is truly a casual elf - at this moment, except for the elves, this was the only thought in their minds when faced with Finn's bold statement.
After all, to be honest, the elves' statements, which were clearly controlled by their emotions and would definitely offend others, were difficult for ordinary humans to understand...
But let's just sigh a few times... Especially for Yang Hao and Theresa who were already familiar with Finn's tone, they knew very well that this was the elves' way of life, so they just complained a few times that the elves really didn't consider whether the other party had a way out, and then they began to seriously consider the possibility of Finn's idea.
Yang Hao looked at Lalumia beside him. After thinking for a few minutes, Lalumia first gave a good news, but then there were two pieces of bad news.
Let me tell you the good news first.
"The good news is that Finn's idea is feasible. For gods who have become gods in the flesh, they will be very vulnerable in the process of "changing their flesh" -
Especially in the process of changing bodies, if the opponent keeps struggling, the god will reveal a small "flaw" during this period.
If we can seize the opportunity and kill the person who provided the body together with the god, then even if we can't kill the God of Light, at least we can injure him severely...
But that’s just the good news. The risks we face are huge.”
Then, there were two pieces of bad news.
"The bad news is - just like a lizard cutting off its tail, the gods can also "cut" off a part of themselves when forcibly taking over the body to avoid greater damage...
Of course, this will definitely cause harm to the gods themselves, but compared to the possibility of being killed by us, this kind of damage is actually as negligible as breaking a few fingers.
Besides, the worse news is that we are likely to have the body of the Saint taken away before we kill her. Even we make numerous precautions when we carry out various plans, let alone the God of Light Constantine?"
The God of Light Constantine is a usurper who will do anything to ascend to a higher position.
He couldn't possibly put all his chips on Cecilia, so naturally he wouldn't leave the ceremony site defenseless while taking over Cecilia's body.
In this situation, it would be very easy for Constantine to escape. Not to mention that for a god, although he might expose his weakness in a very short time, it is not impossible to kill him during that time, but the probability is in a sense as low as that of a vegetative person regaining consciousness...
Faced with Lady Lalumia's words stated with facts and arguments, Finn was somewhat disappointed, but he still chose to agree in the end.
Afterwards, Theresa also explained her own thoughts - she thought there was no need to kill Cecilia directly, but said that she could take the opportunity to do something to Cecilia and bring some "surprises" to the God of Light through conspiracy and trickery.
But Theresa felt at a loss as to what to do specifically - after all, it was everyone's first time to fight against gods, and it was normal that they had no experience.
At this moment, the meeting fell into silence again. At this moment, Elena suddenly spoke:
“Confused: Why can’t everyone choose a more efficient way and let that saint directly rebel against the God of Light that they believe in
After all, Lady Lalumia also said that she became the source of faith for the God of Light because she absorbed your divine power, right? Why not let her just use your power?"
She tilted her head and said "everyone", but she was actually looking at Yang Hao. At the critical moment, she mechanically proposed the most efficient method, but the problem is...
There are at least two people present who don't want Cecilia to find an opportunity... In other words, Elena's plan is indeed very efficient - but the problem is, don't people like it
Especially Finn...
For Fen, you let Cecilia take the initiative to show the image of "resisting God" and "fighting God" in front of Yang Hao. It is hard not to suspect that this saint will take advantage of the period of rising favorability to do something to Yang Hao later...
She knew very well that this would be the most efficient and successful way to do it, but she was reluctant to let Cecilia take advantage of it again...
What about Theresa
She was right to express sympathy for Cecilia.
But it was not reasonable for her to allow the person who had hurt Yang Hao to have that chance again...
It would be fine if making amends could save the lives lost in the past and the pain he had suffered, but what Cecilia can do now is just what they originally wanted, and even killing Cecilia might make it happen.
Under such circumstances, it is even less likely that Theresa will give Cecilia a chance to perform.
so-
The two of them expressed their resistance to Elena's proposal at the same time, and in the face of their resistance, Elena just tilted her head innocently and looked at Yang Hao, who had the dominant power, with an extremely puzzled look - let them resist if they want, anyway, it is Yang Hao who makes the decision, not them.
Yang Hao just sighed heavily. At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on him, and he really had to think carefully about what to do next.
First, killing Cecilia. High risk means high reward. They may seriously injure or even kill the God of Light while killing Cecilia. They can achieve their goal in one fell swoop and recapture the holy city of Saint Petersburg of Bayezid with almost no risk.
But the possibility is very low, and they only have one chance, so they may not be suitable for taking risks.
The second is to set a "trap" on Cecilia through conspiracy and trickery, so that the God of Light can enjoy the surprise when possessing her, and at the same time, let the God of Light feel the warm hospitality from the human world -
This way we don't have to kill Cecilia, and even the contact with Cecilia is limited to a sneak contact. The only question is how do we do it? What should we put down? It's a good question...
The risk is moderate, and the return is strictly speaking moderate as well, so should I choose this one
Finally, the most effective method mentioned by Elena is to let Cecilia rebel against her own god and let her use the power of "light" to fight against the god of light.
This is a low-risk, high-return plan that fits Elena's concept of "efficiency", but the problem is... it is very repulsive to people's hearts.
Not to mention Yang Hao himself, his two wives and his two subordinates all showed visible expressions of resistance.
After all, we are not machines. We are all emotional creatures. As emotional creatures, we will inevitably feel bad about some things...
When it is impossible to conceal one's disgust, it becomes common for everyone to simply ignore the benefits and choose "refuse".
Let’s not talk about the good men on Earth who knew betrayal would be better but still chose to be loyal. At that time, Yang Hao was even morbidly resistant and almost unwilling to believe Nalujia and Dr. Joseph. If it weren’t for Theresa’s care, he might be in a different situation now - so he understands everyone’s resistance...
And to put it bluntly, even if he himself hadn't recovered from what happened back then, it would be even more impossible for him to accept Cecilia.
…
So out of the three options, the only option is the second one, right? But how do we do it
Yang Hao sighed in distress. At this moment, as if she had listened to Yang Hao's inner thoughts, Lady Lalumia took out a handkerchief from her clothes and wiped the sweat off Yang Hao's forehead. She smiled and gave a suggestion in front of the two queens with staring eyes:
"If you choose 'conspiracy', I can help you. Although I am not a god of conspiracy, I can help you if you choose 'poisoning'."
“… “poisoning”
Everyone seemed a little confused: You poisoned Cecilia's body? A poison that can harm gods, is it really okay? Wouldn't Cecilia die before the God of Light possessed her
Facing the bewilderment and confusion of the crowd, the gentle god just smiled and nodded, and explained to everyone the usefulness of "faith" to the god...
As we all know, the stronger the power of faith is, the stronger the power of faith is. On the other hand, what if someone deliberately poisons "faith"
Mortals can't do it, but gods can - by polluting the source of the other party's faith, mixing poison into the faith that the believers rely on to survive in order to severely damage or even kill the other party... This is something that every god can do.
Not to mention, the divine power stolen by the God of Light came from Lalumia!
Lalumia's desire to pollute her own divine power is as easy and pleasant as someone deliberately cooking dark dishes in his or her own kitchen.
And because of her own "light" characteristics, Lalumia's "pollution" will only manifest when the other party absorbs it into the body...
"In other words, I just need to secretly "put some tricks" on Cecilia when she is gaining faith normally.
The only problem is, I have no idea when Constantine will try to absorb the power again.
Perhaps it was the Roman Empire's heavy blow that brought him an opportunity, or perhaps it was the time when he hit a bottleneck...
All in all, this "poison" will last until the day he possesses or absorbs the faith, and I guarantee that even Cecilia herself doesn't know what will happen... So what do you think? Please tell me. "
Lady Lalumia's smile made everyone look at each other several times.
After a while, Theresa nodded with satisfaction: This is what she wanted. It would neither give Cecilia another chance nor kill this silly girl who did not deserve death. Everyone could get what they wanted, which was good.
Fen shrugged in dissatisfaction: This is not what she thought. But she thought, it would be fine to talk more with Yang Hao tonight. Since her man doesn't want to be so extreme, then let it be.
Where's Elena
As a synthetic doll, Elena never cared - she was happy that she had learned more about Yang Hao's inner qualities, but on the other hand, she felt very unhappy that her proposal was rejected...
Have you taken some time out today to go for a walk and talk with Yang Hao? The little doll muttered in his heart, and at this moment, Yang Hao also spoke up and agreed with Lalumia's plan:
"That's it. But the detailed plan—"
"It's okay. We're all tired. I'll find time to explain the details to you later."
"Oh... that's all for today - let's go."
The first trilateral meeting of the United Nations ended under somewhat strange circumstances.
The plan to kill gods was confirmed, the subsequent development plan was confirmed, the mutual benefit between the three countries was confirmed, and the fate of the Roman Empire was confirmed.
Everyone made domestic plan allocations according to their own plans. Shortly after leaving the meeting room, Theresa was in her office dealing with work. Looking at Fen, who was lying on the table with nothing to do, Theresa's face suddenly changed:
"No?! Why didn't I feel there was anything wrong just now?! Why did Lalumia go alone with Yang Hao to discuss important matters instead of discussing it with all of us?!"
"Ah? Is there a problem?"
Finn looked up and looked a little dazed. Looking at Finn like this and recalling Finn's once sensitive image, Theresa's face turned green when she realized what had happened.
She screamed and used magic to dispel the inexplicable remaining divine power in Fen. Then, the trembling little nun angrily cursed the god she believed in:
"Good you Lalumia?! I want to see what you want to say to our man alone?! Humph!"
Let’s not talk about the little nun’s scolding, Finn’s confusion, and Naluga and Natalia raising the child peacefully.
After being taken to the lounge by Lalumia to rest for a while, His Majesty Yang Hao was once again held in the arms of the gentle mother god.
He had recently become more and more accustomed to the life embraced by this deity—to put it bluntly, Lalumia was similar to the "mother" role in his impression...
Maybe it's because her concept is the sunny and positive "light"? Or maybe it's just Lalumia's personality
In general, this man who has been bearing the pressure of life alone for a long time does not resist the embrace of a mother -
This reminded him of the woman who had always been so tall in his eyes when he was a child, the woman he would never be able to see again in this world.
I wonder if my mother is doing well on Earth? His Majesty the Regent was lost in thought while being embraced by Lady Lalumia. At this moment, Lalumia stroked his forehead and sighed:
"Although I said that I could "poison" the faith... But in the end, if Constantine chooses to take a different approach and does the same thing as the back door instead of the front door when young men and women have sex for the first time... Then there is actually no point in me "poisoning" you know, kid?"
"I know. After all, no matter what tactics are used, they have their own adaptability. A head-on confrontation is suitable for fighting reckless people or weaklings, but it is not suitable for fighting sinister villains... I know these principles very well, Lalumia."
Yang Hao muttered while lying in the arms of Lady Lalumia. Lalumia was happy to see such a considerate child, but she also felt helpless about his exhaustion.
She stroked Yang Hao's cheek and his eyebrows, and the delicate touch from her slender hand in white silk gloves made Yang Hao even more sleepy.
"In that case, kid, just take a good rest. Let's leave professional matters to professionals. After all, no one here knows these things better than me, okay?"
"Um… "
"Go to sleep, kid. Get some good sleep—you must be tired from today's meeting after all."
"Um… "
Yang Hao closed his eyes obediently as Lalumia called him softly. After a while, the man's snoring began to echo in this small lounge.
Lalumia smiled as she watched the man in her arms fall into a deep sleep. On the other hand, she also sensed signs that her other child was rushing towards her angrily...
The evil-minded god chose to carve a bright hint outside the door—Lalumia really had no intention of stopping Theresa from breaking in, but Theresa still had to consider it, right
That message "He has fallen asleep, please do not disturb"... No matter what, Theresa would definitely choose to swallow her anger and go back to her room in shame, considering Yang Hao's health issues, right
It's really cute... The kind of person who really wants to come in but chooses to swallow his anger for the sake of his loved one's health and then looks aggrieved...
Lalumia really doesn't have the kind of bad taste to see people being twisted and doing evil things - but how to put it
Isn’t the greatest pleasure of being a parent to amuse your children
“Hehehe.”
