Thinking about the actions of Amanda's faction afterwards, Blake couldn't help but feel angry. After stamping his feet slightly on the spot, he continued to speak to Hilbert.
"Sir, listen to me. There must be something wrong with what happened in Addis right now... There are too many strange things... Especially... the strange thing about that nun..."
Blake analyzed to Hilbert, the questioning tone in his voice was very obvious. Hilbert's expression did not change much as he listened to Blake's words. He slowly made himself a cup of tea and spoke briefly while making the tea.
"you mean……
"Think about it, sir. That nun's luck was too good. As soon as the third round of negotiations was over, she was declared a failure. Suddenly, the Heavenly Judge Cult appeared and killed all the heretics. This was a perfect match for her. It's too coincidental.
"Xia Shu and Adus, this little nun has turned danger into safety twice. The one with Xia Shu was understandable because someone from the Abyss was secretly messing things up. But this time with Adus, it's hard to explain. What kind of cult is this Heavenly Judge? I've never heard of it before. An ancient god from who knows when, but now not only do people still believe in it, but they also stand up to punish those who blaspheme. Why didn't they stand up to play a little earlier? Why did they stand up during the third negotiation to help that little nun? This is really suspicious...
"Sir, the timing of the appearance of this cult is so coincidental. They have the ability to exterminate the Beyonder Reds, but they have only just revealed themselves now. There are too many suspicious points. I suspect that the little nun must have some connection with them. Maybe she is a pawn planted by the cult within the Holy Church. They eliminated the heretics of Addis just to deliberately give credit to the little nun, hoping that she can climb higher in the church and gain more power, and then harm the Holy Church... So I think that the people of the Inquisition should detain and interrogate this little nun!"
Blake looked determined and spoke to Hilbert in a stern tone. After hearing what Blake said, Hilbert put down the teacup in his hand, stared at him, and then spoke.
"You want the court to arrest her...do you have any evidence?"
"No, but you also know that the evidence of heresy is usually obtained by the Inquisition after the person is arrested and interrogated slowly. As long as the suspicion is sufficient, the Inquisition has the power to arrest the person. As long as the person is arrested, there is no fear of not being able to obtain evidence. I have been in the Inquisition before, and this is beyond doubt. You just need to tell Lord Kramer, I think he should be able to help with this issue..."

After hearing that Blake did not provide any evidence, Hilbert looked away, picked up the teacup again and drank tea, and spoke while drinking.
"Kramer had already mentioned your proposal at the cardinals' meeting this morning, but after discussion, it was refuted by Amanda. Now the cardinals' meeting does not agree to conduct any investigation on the little nun without direct evidence..."
"What... Don't the other cardinals have any doubts about the sudden appearance of the Heavenly Judge Cult?" Blake said curiously, and Hilbert continued to answer.
"They have doubts, but they have a more convincing explanation of the origin of the Heavenly Judge Cult."
"I believe it more..."
"Well... Actually, in the various reports from the special envoys, there is a more detailed description of the incident in Addis. On the last day of the negotiations, the first to attack was not the Heavenly Cult, but the Addis Savior Cult headed by Mukhtar.
"According to the report, there have long been deep contradictions and conflicts between the Savior Faction and the Secular Faction in the Adus Revolutionary Army. During the past few days of negotiations, the leader of the Secular Faction, Shadi, has angered the Savior Faction by not expressing his position for a long time. In the second round of negotiations, he even led Mukhtar to leave early. In the third round of negotiations, Mukhtar led his troops to surround the palace where the negotiations were held, intending to use force to eliminate our delegation and force Shadi to express his position and relinquish power..."
As Hilbert said this, Blake's eyes widened as he listened to the detailed information coming from afar in Adus.
"What... In other words... That group of heretics intends to stage a coup and seize power on the day of the third round of negotiations?"
“Yes, so there is no such thing as a breakdown in the third round of negotiations. This was a negotiation based entirely on force.
"According to the report, on the day of the third negotiation, Mukhtar led his troops to launch a crackdown on our delegation, but Shadi seemed to have known about the coup in advance. Not only did his guards suddenly join the battle and attack the heretic armed forces halfway, but Shadi's guards surrounded the palace after the heretic armed forces entered the palace and launched an attack on Mukhtar's heretics. All the troops were dispatched in advance, as if they had foreseen Mukhtar's actions.
"In the melee in the palace, the lightning summoned by the Judge of Heaven only struck the heretics. Not only did it not hurt our delegation, it also did not hurt Shadi's troops. Although he had foreseen Mukhtar's actions in advance, he did not flee when faced with Chicheng, but instead mobilized his troops to actively counterattack. As a Cretaceous man, Shadi dared to fight against Mukhtar, a Chicheng, which proves that he must have found powerful support in advance."
Hilbert said this. Listening to Hilbert's words, Blake blinked and then asked tentatively.
"So... the Council of Cardinals believes that the Heavenly Judge Cult is actually related to Shadi? Did Shadi find out about Mukhtar's plan in advance and then seek reinforcements?"
“Yes, that is indeed what most cardinals think now.
"Shadi was a treasure thief in his early years. According to the intelligence collected from the Beiwu secret world, Shadi is quite unique in the entire Beiwu treasure thief world. He clearly has not systematically studied the knowledge of the First Dynasty, but he is familiar with the various cultural traditions of the First Dynasty. He is like a fish in water when exploring the relics of the First Dynasty.
"It is said that when he first entered the world as a treasure thief, he could actually understand the writing of the First Dynasty and could solve many puzzles in the ruins that even experienced old treasure thieves could not solve. He relied on his deep understanding of the First Dynasty that came from nowhere to thrive in the secret world of treasure thieves in Beiwu, and in the end he was able to accumulate enough wealth to support the revolution. During the confrontation with Baruch, he also miraculously escaped from Baruch's hands many times.
"Based on his profound understanding of the First Dynasty and his ability to escape Chi Cheng's pursuit, many people believe that Shadi accidentally obtained some inheritance from the First Dynasty while stealing treasures, which shaped him into what he is now, the Judge of Heaven... This is the main god of the First Dynasty who has fallen.
“Perhaps, Shadi can obtain some information about the Heavenly Judge Cult, which is a secret inheritance, from his inheritance, and get in touch with them to gain their support and let them help him wipe out the Savior Cult heresy.
"In the eyes of most cardinals, this is a very likely thing, and it is also one of the conclusions of our early meeting. Amanda is very supportive of this statement, and more cardinals believe her."
Hilbert slowly recounted the situation of the cardinals' meeting on the 2nd. Blake couldn't help but open his mouth wide as he listened to Hilbert's words.
