long night fire

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Baimian added:

"The more I think about it, the more I think we have some blind spots, very important blind spots..."

"Indeed, we all think that something has been overlooked." Shang Jianyao raised his hand and rubbed his chin.

This... Long Yuehong's body tensed again.

Bai Chen, who was driving, tentatively said:

"The attitude of the consul and commander-in-chief?

"What is the attitude of the awakened people in the 'spiritual corridor' and above levels in the original city?"

"These are all factors that must be put into the model for analysis from the very beginning..." Jiang Baimian shook his head, "I have deliberated many times about this matter when I decided on the plan, but I have never found it. Blind spots, well, I'm going to do a quick review of my past experiences and see if I can find inspiration."

Having said that, she took the opportunity to teach the team members:

"When thinking about a problem has reached a dead end, you can try to jump out, analyze your own accumulated experience, and draw inferences by analogy."

"Yeah." Long Yuehong said that she had learned it.

The jeep moved forward slowly, and it was quiet inside. Everyone was seriously thinking or deliberating about the subsequent changes in the original city.

Nearly 10 minutes passed, Jiang Baimian suddenly sat up straight, and blurted out:

"I was reminded of our experience at Redstone.

"Hey and I have been watched by the executive year 'You Gu'."

When Long Yuehong and Bai Chen were at a loss, Shang Jianyao clenched his right fist and punched his left palm:

"Yes, what we ignored was Zhi Sui!"

Jiang Baimian gave an "um" and said in a low voice:

"The changes in the situation in such a small place as Hongshiji are all watched by Zhisui. How can we ignore the attitude of Zhisui when the civil strife of the largest force in the 'Original City' is in the dust?"

……

Somewhere in the Golden Apple District.

The consul and commander-in-chief of the "Original City", Beuris, walked into a secret room with thick curtains and an extremely dark environment alone.

Chapter 2 Attitude

"The attitude of the executives?" Long Yuehong suddenly felt that this matter had become very mysterious.

Why did the changes in the situation in the "Original City" involve Zhi Sui?

Years of wars and strife on the gray soil, do they all have the shadow of Zhi Sui?

For Long Yuehong, it was like telling him suddenly that God has decided that you should eat braised eggplant, grilled chicken wings, white rice and iced cola tonight. If you don't do this, you will be disrespectful to God and will attract His intervention.

Jiang Baimian can understand the feelings of Long Yuehong and Bai Chen:

"To be honest, if I hadn't encountered Zhisui's 'Yougu' watching at the Vigilance Church in Hongshiji, I would not have included Zhisui's attitude into the model of the situation in the original city.

"Let's not talk about us. Normal intelligence personnel will certainly not consider this when analyzing the problem. At most, they will pay attention to the tendencies of different sects."

When saying this, Jiang Baimian turned his body sideways and glanced at "Garibaldi" Giuseppe.

The intelligence officer of the "Pangaean creature" looked at a loss:

"What kind of attitude is it?"

Jiang Baimian didn't answer him, and continued:

"Perhaps many awakened people at the 'spiritual corridor' level and members of the Senate will not think about the attitude of Zhi Sui when judging the direction of the situation.

"For so many years, there have been no rumors that Zhisui's will affects the superstructure. Zhisui seems to be the most standard kind of god. He only looks at it from above, accepts beliefs and offerings, and responds from time to time. It does not interfere with the secular world and is closer to the legend. .”

"If you say that, Mr. Dimarco will scold you." Shang Jianyao retorted with "grievance".

Judging from all the signs and DiMarco's few words, he should have been suppressed in the "Underground Ark" by the executive "Yougu", and a certain seal was made to restrict his activities in the "Soul Corridor".

Jiang Baimian took advantage of the situation and said:

"Although it is not ruled out that most of the elders are not interested in the dust and the secular world, but there are a total of thirteen of them, and there will always be a few of them who like to watch their churches and the changes in the situation in certain places. .”

"'You Gu' said, you can just report my electronic card number." Shang Jianyao echoed in a teasing way.

Recalling the battle with DiMarco in the "Underground Ark", Bai Chen, who was driving, nodded and said:

"Indeed, we must not only consider the tendency of the major sects in the city, but also pay attention to the attitude of the elders. At a critical moment, maybe it is only two eyes cast by the New World, and the development of the situation will change."

Jiang Baimian's eyes moved slightly, and he began to "talk to himself":

"At first glance:

"The 'Eternal Years' sect gang 'First City' sealed Wu Meng. The 'Crystal Consciousness Sect' can preach openly in the initial city and often provides help to the authorities. The 'Mirror Sect' sent awakened people at the level of the 'Spirit Corridor' to protect Ah. The two descendants of Ole, Via and Marcus, show that Zhuang Sheng, Bodhi, and Broken Mirror are biased towards the official forces of the "Original City".

"In the various incidents this time, the sects of 'Anti-Intellect' and 'Holy Desire' wanted to kill the centrists of the Senate, and they also left clues pointing to the conservatives, indicating that they hoped that the situation in the initial city would become chaotic, that is to say, It is very likely that the 'last man' and 'mandala' are standing opposite the official forces of the 'prime city'.

"The same should be true of the 'monitor' who enforces the faith of the 'performance artist'.

"As for the attitudes of the 'Shadow of Twisted' who are widely distributed in the military and the 'Dawn' believed by General Phocas, it is still unclear, but the latter seems to want to take advantage of this chaos just like us."

As for "Scorching Gate", "Yougu", "Siming", "Shuangri" and "Golden Balance", these seniors, because their believers have not played much in this change in the situation in the original city. , at least the "Old Tune Group" has never seen it, so it is impossible to judge their attitude.

After listening carefully, Long Yuehong said in doubt:

"Why should executives pay attention to secular power changes?

"The winning side preaches openly and develops believers, while the losing side goes underground and suffers siege?"

This was the most reasonable explanation Long Yuehong could think of, but those Zhisui usually ignored the believers and hardly responded, and they didn't seem to care too much.

"Who knows?" Jiang Baimian replied casually.

The distance between Zhisui and human beings is too far, and it is often impossible to use common sense and experience to analyze.

Long Yuehong didn't expect to get an answer, so she said instead:

"Leader, according to the analysis you just made, in fact, it doesn't matter whether we ignore Zhi Sui's attitude, as long as we grasp the tendency of their sect, this represents their attitude.

"And this is not our blind spot, we have considered it before."

He felt that Jiang Baimian's solemn mention of Zhi Sui was meaningless except to scare himself.

Jiang Baimian smiled gratifiedly and said:

"That's right, I know how not to believe in authority, and I know how to think independently.

"On the surface, what you said is fine, just take those religious organizations into consideration, but if you take 'Zhi Sui may end in person' as a hypothetical premise, you will find that on some key issues, there are differences. There must be changes in the responses that powerful people with different forces will make.”

Having said that, Jiang Baimian laughed at himself:

"Of course, this aspect of cognition is very important to those who are deeply involved in the situation. For us, just remember one thing:

"No matter which religious organization you meet in the past few days, you must not provoke them, and try not to follow the members of friendly religious organizations, otherwise you may be affected, and we have no resistance at all."

Jiang Baimian's memory of the fear and helplessness brought about by "You Gu"'s gaze is still fresh.

"Am I a member of the Friendly Sect?" Shang Jianyao asked a question.

"It doesn't count, you have the blessing map of the heavens holding the year." Jiang Baimian perfunctory Shang Jianyao with an answer that has no logical relationship at all.

At this time, Bai Chen had already driven the car near Emperor Street.

"You can get out of the car now." Jiang Baimian turned sideways and said to "Garibaldi" Giuseppe.

Giuseppe, who listened to their discussion about how to be old all the way, was at a loss, as if he didn't know what night it was and where he was.

What is this all about!

At this moment, Giuseppe always has a sense of absurdity that a few rookie hunters, employees of the car rental company, and bathroom attendants are discussing the replacement of the Senate in the "First City" and the power struggle of the Hunter's Guild.

And the reality is even more exaggerated.

A few humans are actually talking about the attitude of holding on to the age!

Giuseppe opened the car door silently, got out of the jeep, and walked towards a nearby house.

After watching his back disappear near a certain street tree, Jiang Baimian sighed with emotion:

"Gaius's speech was really provocative..."

They've been listening to the development of the Citizens' Assembly on Primordial City's radio station.

"That's because what he said is true, at most he exaggerated a little bit in some places..." Bai Chen stepped on the accelerator and let the army green jeep enter Emperor Street.

……

Somewhere in the Golden Apple District, there was a secret room covered by a thick curtain.

The "Original City" consul and commander-in-chief Beuris looked at the big bed placed in the middle.

An old man was lying on the bed, his hair had turned white and looked thin, his arms and face not covered by the velvet quilt were skinny, with blue blood vessels exposed.

There are metal sensors in many places on his body, the end of his nose is attached to the port of the ventilator, and the infusion needle is inserted into his vein, like a vegetative person who has been in a coma for a long time and relies purely on machines to maintain his vital signs.

It can be seen that the old man must have had a good physique when he was young, but now he looks so thin.

This is one of the founders of the "Original City", who has lived from the old world to the present Cass.

He is over 90 years old.

Beuris stepped forward and said in a respectful tone:

"Your Excellency Cass, things are going very well, and the prey has already entered the net.

"You can wake up briefly and give orders to the 'eight-member meeting' of the 'anti-intellectual religion'."

In the "First City", only a few people know that Cass is the Pope of the "Anti-Intellectual Religion" who is said to have gone to the New World to serve the "Last Man" and guide believers!

"Anti-Intellectualism" was the sect he founded before entering the "New World".

This time, the "Anti-Intellectual Religion" framed the elder Varo and dealt with the centrist Phocas, all of which were arranged by Beuris through Cass. The purpose was to draw out all the opponents and make them think that they had an opportunity to take advantage of them, and then they were wiped out.

Beuris, who is no longer young, may be forced to take up idle positions at the end of his term of office, hoping that through such a "cleaning", the Senate will truly obey him!

He is also an ambitious person, and he appreciates what Ole said at the beginning:

"How can a consul be better than an emperor?"

As soon as Beuris finished speaking, Cass, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes.

As the pair of blue eyes reflected the ceiling, the surrounding light suddenly shrank sharply, and all rushed towards the body on the bed.

All of a sudden, the other areas of the secret room became extremely dark, and you couldn't see your fingers.

And Beuris, who was only a step away from the "new world", felt vaguely that an illusory door had been pushed open at this moment.

Bang!

In the next second, Beuris felt that his memory had turned into a book, flipped uncontrollably in the dark, and fell off page after page.

This... He looked at the figure who sat up on the bed and swallowed all the light, so that he was shrouded in darkness and couldn't see the figure clearly, and said in a deep voice:

"You, not Lord Cass..."

The figure sitting on the bed let out an empty laugh:

"Yes, you can call me 'Truth'.

"It is destined to replace the existence of 'The Last Man' in the future."

……

Hope Square.

The citizens in high spirits chanted "Punish Varo severely" while turning their attention to the Senate not far away.

Gaius waved his hand:

"Let's go, let all the elders hear our cry!"

"Severely punish Varo!"

"Severely punish Varo!"

Under the guidance of some people, the citizens who participated in the assembly rushed towards the Senate in an orderly manner.
