Chapter 1418 [Puppet Master] Cruze’s “Concern”
In the Zanskar Empire, no one in the imperial capital expected that Cruze would come here in person. This is completely unnecessary After all, Yang Hui had made up his mind to destroy the Zanskar Empire, so there was absolutely no chance of survival, but he still came because there were people here that he needed to see in person.
"Sir Cruze, are you here to kill me?"
"Of course not, Ms. Maria, I just have something I want to confirm, and I hope to reach an agreement with you. "In the royal palace of the Zanskar Empire, Kruse sat elegantly opposite Maria Armonia, as relaxed as a friend who had met for many years and had a tea party. Of course... ...if you ignore the soldiers who fell to the ground or the guards who were reluctant but unable to help themselves.
"That's really an honor. So what do you want to confirm? Puppet Master." Maria Armonia was not nervous at all, nor was she too vigilant, because there was no need at all, and there was nothing significance.
As a core figure in the new federal army, she had naturally heard of Kruse's existence, and also knew that people who were afraid of him gave him the title "Puppet Master".
In the past, Maria Armonia only thought that Cruze’s methods were extraordinary and that he could control people as puppets with conspiracy and tricks. However, during this meeting, Maria Armonia Yacai knew that her understanding was wrong. The man in front of her...a man who exuded a deep and cold aura...
"He can really turn people into puppets!"
< br>Maria Armonia saw with her own eyes that Cruze went from the gate of the palace to her bedroom, all the way without any obstruction, no one could stop him... No, it should be that no one could stop him, Gram. Lu Ze's fingers kept moving, and invisible and intangible threads fell on everyone's bodies, and then they could no longer control their bodies.
Just like the soldiers who were still standing guard around them, they were controlled by Kruse and could only act as his puppets.
"Well... it has been confirmed, Ms. Maria, you are really a powerful NT." Cruze said while touching his chin. The purpose of his trip was certainly not to confirm whether Maria Armonia was an NT. , this is just his curiosity, after all... He is very curious about what kind of NT can influence or even change other people's thoughts with his own will.
"So? Mr. Cruze, what is your purpose?" Maria Armonia asked.
"That's no comment, Ms. Maria. I have a deal here. I wonder if you are interested?" Cruze put down the tea cup in his hand and crossed his legs gracefully. Put your hands on your knees.
"...What deal?"
"How about you surrender on behalf of the Zanskar Empire and we let you go?" Kruse said.
"This is impossible." Maria Armonia replied categorically to Cruze. She was originally dissatisfied with the rule of the decadent federation, and in order to realize her beliefs and ideas, she resolutely led the Zanskar Empire to become independent. , and declared war on the Federation.
Even if the current Federation is no longer a rotten quagmire, she will still not give up her goals and wishes, a world where everyone can coexist peacefully under the radiance of motherhood.
"Really? So...can I understand that for Ms. Maria, your country is not as important as your personal thoughts?" Cruze smiled gloomily.
"...My people will definitely support me." Maria Armonia bit her lips and replied with difficulty, "I will also protect my people, you... You can't do whatever you want!"
"Really?" Cruze sneered, making Maria Armonia shudder, and turned to look out the window at the bustling city, "Then I'm looking forward to the federal artillery coming. When this city comes, will they still die for your ideas?”
"You can't do this! You are massacring!" Maria Armonia finally panicked, stood up and reprimanded loudly.
"Correction, Ms. Maria, we are only destroying the rebels." Cruze raised a finger and said to Maria Armonia, "The federal army will fight to the death to protect The people of the Federation, but the Zanskar Empire does not belong to the Federation and is an enemy of the Federation. There is no need to be kind to enemies."
"They are just innocent people!"
"Darma. Ms. Leah, didn't you just say that they will always support you?" Kruse continued with a sneer, "As long as they still support you, they will continue to fight against the Federation regardless of whether it defeats the Zanskar Empire. , you will die sooner or later, it is better to get rid of it sooner." "You are unreasonable! I will never allow it..."
"So you should agree to my deal, Ms. Maria." Cruze interrupted Maria Armonia and said, "Actually, you have no way to stop us from doing anything. Your fleet is now We are vulnerable to the federal army. Your military power cannot stop us, so...if you want your people to avoid being massacred, the only option is to surrender."
"...We. The fleet has broken your blockade and occupied the moon. As long as..."
"In just a few minutes, you should be able to receive the battle report. Your fleet... has been completely annihilated." The smile on Luze's face did not change at all. He was always paying attention to the latest information. Before meeting Maria Armonia, he had received the battle report. Von Braun and Granada had been recovered, and Zans Both fleets of the Karl Empire were completely wiped out.
"How come...you are lying to me!"
"I don't think there is any value in lying to you. I have always been thinking about you, Ms. Maria."
"You..."
"Okay, Ms. Maria, the pleasant afternoon tea time is over." Kruse took out the PAD to read the latest news, looked at the time again, and nodded. "I have other things to deal with, my transaction. You don't need to give me an answer right now. You still have time to think about it. Well... about 30 minutes. Now, I have to clean up the hidden things in this country. "What do you want to do?" Maria Armonia asked with a face full of panic. She thought Cruze was preparing to massacre her people. .
"Nothing, just deal with that little old man with dementia."
"Prime Minister Kokachi! No! You can't..."
"Oh~? What a surprise." Cruze looked at Maria Armonia in pretended surprise, "Your mental waves are so powerful that you can't see into other people's hearts?"
"You...what...mean..."
"It's that little old man. You actually care about him so much. He and you have never been in the same camp."
"Impossible. ! Don't try to deceive me, Kokachi..."
"He wants to destroy all humans on the earth and then become the king."
"You...you are lying to me..."
"What benefits will this bring to me?" Cruze shrugged and asked Maria Armonia helplessly, "I have controlled him and can get rid of him at any time, so there is no point in driving a wedge between you."
"You...you..."
"Okay, Maria Madam, you still have 28 minutes, so I’ll take my leave.”
“Cruze! Don’t leave!” See you, Kruse is leaving. Maria Armonia immediately wanted to stand up and leave him behind, but the moment she wanted to stand up, she found that her body did not obey her orders at all, and she could only sit on the seat, unable to move.
