Doctor Amnesiac, but not completely amnesiac

"Support for the Universal Messenger System, while allowing no more than five messengers to be stationed in each mobile city-state within Da Yan, but the premise is that these people will be restricted in their areas of operation and must also obey certain bans from the Da Yan authorities."

Qiao Yelan told the conditions he had fought for Rutland at that time.

All beginnings are hard.

If Da Yan is willing to allow messengers from all nations to be stationed, many small and medium-sized countries will surely follow suit.

Just like Qiao Yelan said, no one doesn't want to have a Sakota friend.

As for whether some major countries will resist...

If Qiao Yelan wanted to stir up trouble in these places, he didn't really need to rely on the Messenger of All Nations.

"Very good conditions - but it's probably not as good as Lateran's support for Longmen Coin."

"I can't help it. This is the best offer I can get for Lateran without being exposed. However, I can still take this price difference into consideration, so I will be responsible for making up the difference myself. Babel Tower will provide material support and help to the messengers of all nations."

Qiao Yelan is like a professional after-sales service, providing after-sales service to customers.

"The messenger can use all Babel Tower stations as post stations. After all, it takes too long from filing an application to distributing supplies and funds. Babel Tower is willing to provide emergency assistance in the form of a signboard - or do you have any other requests for Dayan?"

"Latlan has basically no interests to pursue in the outside world. What Latlan pursues is the peace and progress of Terra. The conditions you have obtained for Latlan are already the biggest concession that Da Yan can make in this regard. As for the rest, they are not what Latlan needs now. It is better to sell them to Da Yan and enhance bilateral relations."

The Pope's voice remained gentle, and his words proved that this old man was definitely not someone who knew nothing about politics.

"I am very grateful that you are willing to facilitate the messengers' activities. Lateran promises to reimburse all the receipts written by the messengers when they withdraw supplies. At the same time, it will provide sufficient funds to assist Babel in establishing stationed stations for messengers from all nations in various parts of Terra."

Qiao Yelan looked at the Pope thoughtfully.

Babel Tower came to help Da Yan make up the difference. In other words, the supplies provided were not thought of for reimbursement at all, they were purely for convenience - of course, there was also a listing for operation

The Pope's words clearly acquiesced to the price difference, so Qiao Yelan's excuse of making up the price difference could be rejected outright.

But what he said next was very interesting - he had no intention of stopping Babel from interfering with the Messenger of Nations, and not only did he allow Babel to cheat under the Lateran sign, he also planned to help reimburse all of Babel's material and financial expenses.

What this means is, what belongs to Dayan belongs to Dayan, and what belongs to Babel belongs to Babel.

These are two separate transactions, don't confuse them.

"Your Holiness, do you have any other requests for the Tower of Babel?"

"Not to Babel, but to you."

Qiao Yelan:?

"This land is at a dangerous juncture. Although destruction is still some distance away from us, any small mistake may push Terra to a higher cliff. However, every time the Tower of Babel becomes active, Terra will be one step further away from the abyss."

"Although we don't know how you did it, we believe in you. Even though history has forgotten you, Sakota will never forget your kindness in the past - in the Sarkaz, before they were called Sarkaz."

Qiao Yelan narrowed his eyes.

Although the relationship between Babel Tower and Lateran has always been very good, they still know very little about Lateran and Sakota. Because the sacred Tara is a bit too tricky, Qiao Yelan has always been somewhat restrained in using Sakota.

It seems that these Sakota people must have dug up something back then, at least something that can detect and monitor all similar catastrophes on the land of Terra.

"You have always seemed to have no desire for Lateran, and we were also worried that our actions would have some kind of impact on you, so we have always maintained absolute neutrality and did not cause you any trouble. It was not until nine years ago that the [God] of Sakota issued a warning, and I was forced to try to help Terra in my own way."

"God?"

"I'm sorry that you can't see Him yet, but I promise that you will be able to see Him when the time is right."

The old man said with a genuine apology.

"Now that you have come to Lateran, no matter what you ask for, Lateran will agree to it. If the Universal Messenger, which I created without authorization, can help you with your actions on the Terra continent, that would be great."

Qiao Yelan had a subtle expression.

So for all these years, he has had a big card that he has never used, and he doesn't even know there is a card here?

No, what was I doing before?

"Uh, so, Rutland's help to me was actually completely selfless and he didn't ask for anything in return?"

"I still have a personal request."

At this point, the Pope seemed a little embarrassed.

"I just hope that the Holy City can continue to exist, and Lateran can continue to exist. This is my selfish desire as a Sakota - so I also hope that this wish can be recognized by you, Your Excellency the Righteous Man."

"To gain my protection of Lateran in exchange for his help is a very good deal. I can't find any reason to object."

Qiao Yelan had to admit that this was probably the most comfortable transaction he had ever made since he woke up.

It's just a subtle feeling - it's like I've exploded my own gold coins.

especially......

That subtle sense of disharmony once again appeared in Qiao Yelan's heart.

Chapter 105 I Caught You

"Have we met before, Your Holiness?"

"This is the first time I have actually met you. Before this, there were only some records left by the saints - such as how you helped us build this city and how you overthrew the Tikaz Empire with us."

"...but I have never seen your gods?"

This question stunned the Pope for a moment, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"I'm sorry, at least for this meeting, the god did not allow me to bring you to the audience. As for whether you have met Him in the past, I really haven't seen any records - you yourself can't remember it?"

"...I don't really have a similar impression."

Qiao Yelan concealed the fact that he lost his memory every once in a while.

It's so weird.

Judging from the Pope's attitude towards himself, it doesn't seem like he is being hypocritical or playing Tai Chi with himself - so the history he described is probably true.

At the end of the Ticarz Empire, he was indeed pushing for the destruction of this country, and this was also recorded in the documents inside the Tower of Babel. But the problem was that there was no other record about Sakota in that document, as if it was just an ordinary rebel army.

The most contradictory point is that after waking up this time, the letter he received gave him a lot of information about interpersonal relationships. It also wrote that the chess pieces he had reserved were all for the purpose of implementing the Longmen Coin Plan - it even mentioned placing the reserve funds in Lateran to increase the currency credibility through this permanently neutral country.

The problem was that the letter only stated that this was to be done, without leaving any happy information about Lateran.

There are two answers to this question:

But each one made Qiao Yelan confused.

The first answer - Qiao Yelan didn’t know about Lateran’s respect for him last time, so he could only wait for himself to respond when he woke up next time. He was prepared to exchange benefits to promote the Longmen coin, which was the same as the negotiation he had when he first met the Pope, so he didn’t record it in the letter.

This is possible. Considering the Pope's age, if the other party has not seen him, then he may not have been to Lateran during his last awakening. At the same time, the plan he had previously formulated to step on the heads of the messengers of all nations to become the middlemen of various countries also became more reasonable.

The second answer - the previous Qiao Yelan knew the respect that Lateran had for him, so he didn't write it down, because he knew that as long as Babel Tower went to Lateran, he would receive such treatment, so there was no need to write it in the letter.

In other words, whether Qiao Yelan came by himself or not, as long as Babel Tower showed the intention to cooperate, Lateran would not refuse, so there was no need to record it.

However, a new contradiction arises here.

Qiao Yelan asked his next question slowly.

"Your Holiness, do you know who else besides me was at the Tower of Babel in the Lateran history?"

"There is also a lady named Kelsey who has always been with you. She is an excellent doctor and deputy."

The Pope gave his answer.

This answered all of Qiao Yelan’s questions.

Kal'tsit should have known about the relationship between himself and Lateran, and he had made a backup of the visit to Lateran and the plan to exchange interests with the Pope in order to interfere in the Messenger of Nations - this backup was uploaded by him and read by Kal'tsit.

With her knowledge and intelligence, she should have told Qiao Yelan about the connection between Babel Tower and Lateran as soon as possible, so that Qiao Yelan would not have to spend so much time in Da Yan to try to get a deal with Lateran.

But the question is - is there any need for such concealment?

As long as Qiao Ye Lan arrives in the Lateran, as long as Qiao Ye Lan meets the Pope, he will know the truth of the matter - hiding it will not bring any benefit to them, nor will it change anything.

The purpose of concealment is to change the facts in the eyes of others, not to expose the means of concealment.

That means another fact.

Kal'tsit really didn't know about this.

But why would Qiao Yelan hide this from Kal'tsit?

The corners of Qiao Yelan's mouth suddenly curled up slightly.

——What if the purpose of concealment is to expose the means of concealment?

"As expected of me, I took advantage of my habit of being blind to the darkest things under the lamp and dug a hole for myself..."

"what did you say?"

"Well, sorry, I was talking to myself. Thank you for your help, Your Holiness. I swear to you in the name of Qiao Yelan - as long as my breath is still echoing on this land, the Sakota people will continue to live happily like this."

"Thank you, Your Excellency."

-----------------------------------------------

"PRTS, record new Lateran-related entries."

Qiao Yelan sat in front of the computer, with no extra expression on his face.

【Begin recording.】

"The Pope has agreed to cooperate with Babel on the Universal Messenger policy. Babel will begin to provide post services for the Universal Messenger. It has also obtained the Pope's authorization to be listed in the Lateran and has received official funding from the Lateran. It will immediately begin preparations to set up safe houses throughout Terra and equip them with the corresponding supplies and personnel."

【Recording completed.】

"This record will be kept secret from Kal'tsit for now."

[The priority of information retrieval has been confirmed. Kal'tsit is temporarily not authorized to read this information. 】

"Okay, retrieve all the information about Lateran, including the new information recorded this time. I want to check for any omissions."

【has been called out.】

He read it carefully.

"Okay, put it away - open all the information about Rutland to Kelsey, including the part just entered."

[Understood, the priority of intelligence retrieval has been changed again. ]

Qiao Yelan closed the computer with satisfaction.

Finally caught you.

Since waking up, Qiao Yelan has been very confused about his position.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. He was actually forced to wake up from the coffin because of others' pressure, and climbed up to clean up the mess.

If Babel Tower was now a lost dog, being chased around Terra by other forces, he could still understand it. After all, in this situation, there is no absolutely safe place, and the key is to maintain the current foothold.

But the problem is that the fact is not like this at all - not to mention that the Tower of Babel was suppressed, all countries were flocking to it, not to mention the two main areas of Casimir and Rem Billiton, which had always been calm.

Now everything can be explained clearly. It was all a hole I dug for myself.

Whether it was placing myself in Kazdel or leaving myself a half-hearted letter, everything I did had only one purpose.

Make good enemy search marks for your next self.

Qiao Yelan has no memories, but having no memories doesn't mean that he can be easily deceived by others——

Especially when you realize someone has bad intentions.

The reason why Qiao Yelan can tolerate traitors and barbecued pork, and can tolerate traitors and barbecued pork even more, was already explained to Theresa.

——The benefits she brings far outweigh the losses she may cause.

Qiao Yelan has seen too much betrayal, so he also has his own hypothetical principles.

——If the person I support betrays me, will the benefits brought by his betrayal be greater than the losses caused by his betrayal?

If he judges that the losses outweigh the benefits, then Qiao Yelan will prepare someone to replace the other party. Before the losses expand, he will directly eliminate the person who caused the problem and replace him with someone without a problem, then the problem will naturally be solved.

Just like Kosice and Wei Yanwu, just like Wei Yanwu and Emperor Yan.

So the question is, why didn't Qiao Yelan replace Vladimir with someone who could replace him when Vladimir betrayed the deal with Qiao Yelan and chose to gamble everything and send his inner guards to the mortal battlefield?

Because in Qiao Yelan's eyes, his betrayal can bring greater benefits to the Tower of Babel.

Qiao Yelan’s pursuit of the interests of the various countries on Terra is actually very pure.

Can you stand on the front line against the abyss?

Yes, well, as long as you fight back well, then Babel will take care of everything else for you.
