The one hour time was quickly finished in the conversation, and it was time to eat and came to the restaurant.

The four of them sat down around a small round table, continuing the unfinished topic while eating.

"I've already understood what you mean, the other candidates use their own methods to attack Anastasia from the side. This is indeed feasible, but I also have a question." Crusch asked casually with a knife and fork in his hand road.

"please say."

"Whether it's me or Priscilla, we all have our own methods. However, the Emilia you are loyal to——I am not denying her, but you should admit that she has not been able to contribute to this battle. Add it to the chips on the balance of 'victory'. I heard that even your residences are property under Priscilla's name right now."

It is not contempt, but a reasonable judgment based on objective facts.

Indeed, Emilia does not have any bargaining chips to participate in this "invisible war" gambling game.She doesn't have any contacts in Wangdu, and she doesn't get any resources and support.

What Li Lin said to Priscilla before is to make use of her strengths and avoid her weaknesses, and give her advice.Even the proposals given to Crusch now are all using the resources they already have.

This "length" is their own, and Li Lin just pointed it out.Even without him, there may be other think tanks who will come forward.

But looking back, Emilia is not that "long".With her current resources, it is difficult to do anything to weaken Anastasia.

Li Lin naturally knew this.

However, what made him a little bit emotional was not that Crusch pointed this out so directly, but how quickly she grasped the information.

You must know that Emilia and her party have only lived in that house since yesterday evening.But now only one night and one morning have passed.In such a short period of time, Crusch has already grasped all the information.Knowing that they lived there, and knowing that the property is under Priscilla's name.

No, not just her.I'm afraid that by now all the candidates know where Emilia has come to the capital and where she lives.Or it should be said that from the moment they entered the capital, countless pairs of eyes have been fixed on them.

"Although I don't know what Emilia's plans are. But since she has returned to the capital, it means that she will officially start competing with us."

Crusch continued,

"Li Lin, I don't know what you think. In my opinion, Emilia will never succeed."

"It's better not to use the word 'absolutely'," Li Lin said with a smile, "It's easy to make the impossible really possible."

"..."

"I also think it's impossible, meow." Felice supported Crusch, "Our Master Crusch will definitely become king."

"In short." Crusch didn't continue to dwell on this issue, and changed the subject, "I accept your proposal. Next, I will find a way to establish a series of tests. Those who pass, I am willing to be the head of Karsten. Award him a Knight Medal. Incorporate into the knight order of our Karsten family. I will also persuade other opponents in the family."

"So, for the provider of this proposal. Do you want me to give you or Emilia something equivalent in return?"

Li Lin shook his head.

"There is no need for anything in return. After all, our current enemies are the same. And if I want to make an alliance request, I will definitely get a refusal."

"That's right. If you want me to form an alliance with Emilia, I will not agree. Anyway, Emilia's identity is too sensitive, and forming an alliance with her will reduce our reputation among the common people. But if you If there is anything that needs help, I am willing to lend a helping hand.”

Li Lin had already expected Crusch's answer. He knew that although Crusch was straightforward, he was not reckless.Knowing the repercussions of aligning herself with Emilia, who looks like the Witch of Envy.

It took about forty minutes for lunch to end, and then Li Lin said goodbye and left.

Crusch sent him out of the mansion on purpose, and turned back after watching his figure disappear at the end of the street, "We need to start implementing the knight selection plan immediately."

Felice and Wilhelm were still standing at the door, the former looked at the latter, "This Li Lin is very dangerous."

"...what do you mean?"

"No, no, it's nothing." Phyllis waved his hand. Although his face was smiling, there was no smile in his pupils. Instead, there was a kind of cold fear.

If that guy chose Priscilla instead of Emilia, he might really be a threat to Crusch.

Thinking about it, Phyllis defined Li Lin in his heart—a very dangerous and cunning guy.

"Okay, now that I have decided to expand the Knights Order, I will also help formulate some test content." Wilhelm said seriously: "Even if it is to attract civilians, the standard cannot be lowered. Those who pass the test must be compared with the real ones." The difference between the knights is not too far, otherwise it will cause the original knights to feel unbalanced."

"That's true."

The two went back while talking, and on the other side, Li Lin, who had rounded the corner, had already returned to his expressionless state.

During the meal just now, he gave Crusch a lot of advice.It wasn't some fanciful idea, it was something he came up with after thinking about it for a long time after leaving Priscilla's place yesterday.The purpose was to ensure that there were no loopholes so that Crusch could accept the proposal.

Of course, Li Lin didn't intend to harm Crusch, and his suggestions had no traps at all, and they were all very practical.As long as Crusch does this, her approval rating will skyrocket, and she will also gain a large number of powerful knights from the common people within a few months.

These common people seized the hard-won opportunity, not to mention all of them, at least [-]% would be grateful to Crusch for his kindness.For the person who gave them honor and changed their destiny, they will definitely offer their loyalty.

In this way, Crusch's strength will be doubled, and part of the purpose of restraining Anastasia will be achieved.

At the same time, Priscilla is angry, but she should also try Li Lin's proposal without accident.Invite people from other places to live in her territory in batches, which can also win people's hearts stably and efficiently.

With the simultaneous efforts of the two camps, even if they can't completely suppress Anastasia's momentum, at least they can effectively slow down her growth rate and form a short-term equilibrium in the dynamic game, allowing them to devote all their time to busy work .

Only in this way can Emilia have a chance to breathe.

Li Lin put his hands in his pockets. Although his eyes were looking straight ahead, passers-by could notice that his pupils were not focused, and that he was completely in a trance.

Only by distracting their energy first can Emilia really start to do something.

He thought, rubbing his temples with his hands.I'm also a little tired. Space magic, which requires abstract understanding, has been intensively studied all night, plus the conversation this morning, which consumes a lot of energy.After all, in front of Crusch, he not only had to pay attention to the loopholes in his words, but also kept not to have any casual lies, which would be noticed by her and would cause her to deteriorate her perception of him.

"It hurts..."

As the fingers rubbed, there was some pain in the brain, and Li Lin put down his hand.It was the appearance of physical pain that made him really realize that there was really some damage to his head or nerves.

"Forget it, I don't have time to deal with that now."

Using quick steps instead of stillness, Li Lin returned to the west of the city.
