In the end, Zhao Sida chose to put back Irene and the grumpy old man, as well as the enforcers who were invited by Wu Ming to have tea in the containment space.
Wu Ming naturally had no objection to this. After all, there was no deep hatred between the two parties.
After letting them go under the gaze of those people who dared not say anything, Wu Ming looked at the puppet girl on the side, who was constantly adjusting the focus of his pupils, looking at the backs of Irene and the others as they left, and he asked questions knowingly. asked.
"Won't Lao Zhao leave with them?"
Wu Ming has always been very clear about the position of the doll girl. She is not part of the firm's contract. She is also affiliated with another extraordinary force that may maintain the order of the extraordinary world, and she is quite free to move and stay. But now, even with instructions from her superiors, she has no intention of leaving. That's why I asked.
"I cannot sit back and watch the disaster that is brewing in Yandu erupt, even if this is the judgment made by the alliance leader."
Zhao Sida shook her head and watched them leave in the direction they disappeared. Some records emerging from the storage module also reappeared in her mind through the mental model.
Those records include the experience of having to nip in the cradle the buds that had not yet become a threat for the survival of the majority, and also the memories of having to save the greater majority at the expense of the sacrifice of a minority.
The alliance leader's judgment will not be wrong. This is a default fact in the organization.
At the beginning of the establishment of the organization, the leader led the members to emerge against the background of chaos caused by psykers. It grew rapidly in a short period of time, and decisively chose to contact the other four extraordinary forces, and reached an alliance with them to jointly blockade them. The extraordinary world maintains the stability of human society.
In the era of steam power and giant ships and cannons, the alliance leader once again defied all opinions and led the organization to become the first extraordinary force in the extraordinary world to adopt gunpowder weapons and giant ship and cannon doctrine besides hunting groups. And I don’t know where to start. A batch of new steam-powered iron-clad ships arrived. After a series of extraordinary magical modifications using technology obtained from someone unknown, each iron-clad ship was equipped with wide-area mental power detection and extraordinary spells to guide cannon landing points. They even used fire elements to replace ordinary fuel-driven steam engines and other obviously extraordinary technological products, and successfully formed the only new fleet of that era with extraordinary power.
For a long time after that, there was a legend circulating in the extraordinary world - the deep sea. There was a ghost fleet hidden in the deep ocean far away from the mainland. They targeted the settlements of extraordinary creatures along the coast and came to Without a trace, no one knows where their lair is. But what is certain is that as long as there are extraordinary creatures who openly stand up to hunt humans and show their extraordinary abilities, or organize other extraordinary creatures to conspire to induce social unrest and take the opportunity to rise to the top to secretly control the real power of human society, there will definitely be a few righteous weapons after a while. The 305mm caliber main gun shell accurately landed on his home.
Of course, the legend changed again later, and after the Thousand Suns, it turned into a ghost convoy. Rumor has it that they drove tanks and carried automatic rifles loaded with extraordinary bullets to launch an inhumane siege on extraordinary creatures that secretly participated in the war... …But that’s all for later.
After that, the other four supernatural forces jointly fought against the Thousand Suns, worked together to prevent the supernatural transformation and infiltration strategy of extraordinary creatures, the second counterattack of the combined suppression of extraordinary creatures and some psykers, the disintegration of the Round Table Council, and the large-scale breakthrough of agency containment objects event, solving the Y2K crisis. Behind every world-class crisis that has been solved, there are always active figures of organizations and leaders, and every leader’s prophetic instructions and well-timed actions can always contain the expansion of crises and disasters and save Libra at the expense of the sacrifice of a few people. Most people on the other side.
Among the few people who were sacrificed, there were potential dangerous elements who could pose a big threat but had not yet turned into a real threat, and there were also poor people who were unable to save them in time, and many of them had to do it despite their own will. The overall situation is sacrificed for the survival and life of the majority of people...
But the leader's instructions and actions did save more people.
Even though Zhao Sida only joined the organization in the last hundred years or so and does not have a strong sense of identification with the organization, after personally experiencing those major events and deducing and simulating the development direction of those events countless times, she came to the same conclusion. .
Even though she was in a different place and was in the whirlpool of major events, she couldn't come up with a better way to deal with it than the alliance leader.
Gradually, the action concept of sacrificing the few to save the many and the leader's foresight and infallible judgment became something that every member of the organization firmly believed in.
"I agree with the organization's code of conduct of sacrificing the few to save the many, and I also believe in the judgment of the alliance leader. However, the disaster has not yet broken out. I think we should not make this judgment and abandon this place."
Wu Ming saw the doll girl turning her head and looking at him with her eyes that showed no signs of expression. The pupils, which were made of crystal or optical lenses, were shrinking and expanding. A smile that passes for a smile.
"And as you said, as the manager, for individuals, those cold numbers often mean everything to them, including family, property, the foundation they have built with painstaking efforts, and the love of their lives. No one wants to become a statistic. A bunch of meaningless numbers.”
Zhao Sida didn't know whether her choice this time was right. Maybe she would not be able to make any difference by staying here. Maybe she would not be able to turn the tide in the end to prevent the disaster that was about to happen in Yandu. Maybe she would not be able to save a few people in the end, but this was her choose.
…………
After that day, the garrison forces distributed in Yandu quietly evacuated. At the same time, the other four forces that suppressed the extraordinary world also received warnings from the alliance leader.
The Warlock Association, the agency, the church, and the hunting group each took action. The hunter group sent a lot of additional hunters to the Yandu area to support them. The agency dispatched three tactical teams with two types of containment objects and countless expendable personnel to station in Yandu.
The Warlock Association and the Church quietly evacuated the garrisoned personnel. The former is basically a scholar-type supernatural force. Although knowledge can be used as a power, it cannot play a big role on the front line. As for the latter, they have always been They are not willing to operate in East Asia. The incident in Yandu just allows them to withdraw the remaining personnel here and concentrate on Europe.
The entire extraordinary world is undercurrent.
Zhao Sida returned to Wu Ming's home as if nothing had happened. She would argue with Elizabeth every day as usual, and was carried by Fei Ge for a spin in the sky of Yandu, analyzing and analyzing the unexplored aspects of the wisdom potion...
Life seemed to have returned to its original track. Wu Ming was busy attending classes, busy supplementing his extraordinary knowledge, busy exchanging knowledge with the old hunter Alex, and busy tracking down the traces of the Truth Society based on intelligence.
But it may be that after two setbacks, the Truth Society has become more cautious in its actions. Often, by the time they arrive, the members of the Truth Society have already left...
The good news is of course that the young men and women who were previously transformed by the Society of Truth have basically been ninety-nine percent brainwashed by the seal. They have planted hints in their dreams that they will no longer use extraordinary power, and their memories have been cleared. , and after it was confirmed that it would not pose much of a threat, he was released back into the ordinary life of ordinary people.
The old hunter Alex found several other leakers of truth pills and wisdom potions, and promptly prevented more ordinary people from being transformed...
The extraordinary creatures that poured into Yandu would be frightened by the giant dragon that hovered over Yandu from time to time every day. They restrained themselves even more and did not dare to act rashly, for fear that they would attract the attention of the dragon species and then be beaten by them. ——This urban legend has spread in the extraordinary biosphere of Yandu.
Occasionally, some extraordinary creatures who act arrogantly and attract the attention of the dragon will often be approached by a masked girl dressed as a maid when they wander into an alley. Sometimes the girl is accompanied by a person who can exercise The human wizard of witchcraft is sometimes a little girl who is mentally ill but can beat thieves, sometimes she is a short girl who can throw out many transparent threads...
In addition, there are hunters stationed in Yandu, and for a while those extraordinary creatures still maintained the greatest restraint. Even if they didn't like each other, they would not start fighting if they disagreed...
Everything seemed to be going in a good direction until Wu Ming received a call from Lin Jiaojiao today.
"Brother Wu Ming! I've been trying to persuade them for several days, but I still can't stop them from seeking death!"
