Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 988 Intelligence
"Indeed. Such an important key must be managed in two halves. When building an intelligence network, we also have single-line contacts with peripheral personnel. When a problem occurs at one point, we can try to ensure the safety of the entire line. When a problem occurs at one line, the entire intelligence network will not be exposed. The Romans really learned social engineering well."

"And considering that this is in our house," Shangluo added, "I'm afraid the Romans wouldn't dare to be so bold."

"I think this is the most heartless thing. They sent this thing as a children's toy without saying anything. Fortunately, the emperor was not interested in it and kept it in the warehouse for more than ten years. If he had really opened it to take a look, he might have taken half of their door lock apart."

"The degree is still different. For us, not to mention half, even a hair is not acceptable. But for the Romans, half and all are really important. They really need to arrange the safety of the country through some dramatic means."

Fu Yuanshan shook his head: "No wonder Rome is doomed. A good warrior is not famous for his achievements. No one wants to dance on the edge of a knife when advancing steadily. I admit that the Romans did dance well occasionally, but the best news is that there is no abnormality. They always play tricks like this - this is not monkey show, you have to watch the monkey do somersaults to get a reward. My personal opinion is that there is something wrong with their attitude."

"Huh? What do you say?"

"After they knew they had a way out, they didn't operate everything in this world honestly at all. Instead, they retreated into the way out in various aspects. They might not have been hopeless at the beginning, but now they can't be saved even if they could be saved - of course, this is not a bad thing for us. Such a neighbor went to 'Water and Grass' at the beginning, and immediately left his property and servants to our family in his will. This is not a bad thing after all. But it's still sad to think about it."

【Ah, Rome, that's true. It's true of many things. At first we claim nothing happened; in the second stage, we say maybe something happened, but we shouldn't take action; in the third stage: maybe we should take action, but nothing can be done; in the fourth stage: maybe we could have done something, but now it's too late - the Golden Bough incident is a typical example. The Romans had 10,000 chances to correct their mistakes before asking you to do anything. They were lucky to have waited for you until the end. If they were unlucky, Rome might have been blown up like New Antioch.】

"Yeah," Shangluo nodded, "But now that things have come to this, there's no point in criticizing them, so let's get ready for the feast."

"That's true." Fu Yuanshan said helplessly, "After all, death is the greatest thing. He's already half buried in the ground, so there's no point in scolding him. But this banquet is not that easy to handle."

"So, it depends on whether our people can send the Romans away in a glorious manner."

"Come to think of it." Fu Yuanshan looked at Shangluo. "When I was serving in the Northern Army, I often heard that there was a kind of people in Tianjin called 'Da Le'. They were usually some well-known people in the local area, and they were responsible for helping people with weddings and funerals. I say, Shangluo, as the White Emperor Sword Immortal, it seems that you are now specifically helping people with these, and you specialize in funerals."

"Is this the White Emperor?"

"Eh? Shangluo, have you ever been to Tianjin? The way you responded just now sounded like the supporting role in a crosstalk."

"That's right. I love listening to crosstalk. But having said that, sending away the people who should be sent away is indeed a difficult task. It was me who sent that little Japanese thief who swallowed the elixir back to the mortal world."

"Do you like this job?" "Yeah," Shangluo thought for a moment, "It's pretty cool to be able to delete other people's accounts."

"That's right. Many people get addicted to doing what's right. When you reach the realm of a celestial being, you can't just live for yourself. Because if you fall into loneliness without any relatives or neighbors, it's only a matter of time before the five decays of a celestial being come. However, I hope you can always maintain this mentality. After all, holding the power of life and death will not always bring you joy. Sometimes, it's more of a test."

"Like the case that Tianzi handled before?"

"That was an extreme case, a head-on collision between the Three Bonds and the Five Constant Virtues and the will of heaven and human nature. In the end, the emperor chose to stand on the side of modern people. As for your side, it seems that the situation is a little different?"

"In Heaven, strength is the criterion," Shang Luo replied, "so I will only deal with matters related to cultivation. In other words, I only deal with matters like the "grudges in the martial arts world" in martial arts novels, not civil or criminal disputes. I have finished my punishment, and if there is still breath, the court will continue to punish."

"That's really 'big'. In the past, when fighting was prevalent in Tianjin, including the grudges in the rivers and lakes throughout the ages, a powerful person was needed to reconcile all the conflicts. Even with the Heavenly Court now, I'm afraid we are still no exception. But you are right. Putting aside the civil and criminal laws, the problem you are dealing with is not difficult in itself. You just need to be reasonable. What is more important than the solution to the problem is strength."

He looked at Shang Luo and said, "I don't think your cultivation is really higher than mine. But your lightning is really scary to me. If I were to be struck by you, even if I didn't die, I would probably drop a major realm."

"By the way, the one who was just captured in the Imperial Prison, has she woken up?"

"She's awake." Fu Yuanshan replied, "I just came from the Imperial Prison before I came to you. The people below are restoring her memory - but she was quite cooperative, and the prepared tricks were not used. This is good, because unless it is necessary, I don't want to waste so much electricity. The large memory recovery technique is quite energy-consuming. Although the overall situation is hard to say, one thing is certain. She is from the Tokugawa family."

"Oh. That's easy. It's proven that she is an official of Japan, right?" Shang Luo felt that the problem was clear now. Then it would be easier to deal with. Because from the perspective of the Heavenly Court, many problems are quite easy to deal with - whoever gave the order will be held accountable.

"No, it's actually a little difficult. She seems to be hesitant in her words, but we can be sure that although she is employed by the Tokugawa family, she cannot represent the official government of Japan."

"Could it be a branch of the Tokugawa family? Why go to so much trouble then?"

"Still asking. But the root of everything seems to be related to the Tokyo Tower."
