Three days have passed, and the spies of the Feiyandi Nanling Special Operations Brigade still have not been able to obtain precise information about the Holy Mountain.
To be precise, no credible information was obtained.
They have a lot of news that is too bizarre and unbelievable.
Under the bright yellow light, Captain Naimo tapped his fingers on the armrests of the chair and looked at the report in his hand expressionlessly, which made the intelligence personnel reporting the report tremble with fear.
And when the captain stopped tapping his fingers and raised his head to look directly at him, the intelligence officer even closed his eyes briefly, waiting for the next slap or the sword spine.
--He also knows how outrageous the news he got is. If he were the leader, he would not be able to help but beat himself up.
But Naimo didn't take action.
The man just raised his hand and waved with some fatigue, signaling the intelligence personnel to get out quickly.
The intelligence officer who was amnesty quickly turned his head, and after the door was tightly closed, Naimo let out a long sigh: "Nanling... what a place where demons dance."
At the beginning, he would be angry, angry, feeling unbelievable, and unwilling to believe it.
But later on, when seven or eight different spies, spies and undercover agents from several different channels came back with all kinds of messy information that was completely different, he no longer had the energy to get angry.
He was numb.
Just like the intelligence sent by the intelligence officer just now... look what he wrote!
--The Ministry of Manggu said that Ian Yinfeng was actually the reincarnation of the Germanium Steel Dragon. As soon as he arrived at the Holy Mountain, the roar of the dragon sounded, the mountain peak trembled, and then the fire was rekindled and the sacrificial fire was shining again... There is no doubt that, He is the reincarnation of the real dragon!
--The Department of Deaf Cow said that Ian Silver Peak is actually a prophet, so he can unlock the mysterious lock of Longyou that has never been unlocked for hundreds of years...
-Yimeng Fengbu said that Manya Afud was selected by the Dragon God and could turn into a giant earth-moving dragon tens of meters tall. His body was radiating flames, and he could also spit out beams of light from his mouth...
What nonsense rumors, the reincarnation of the Germanium Steel Dragon and the arrival of the prophet, why don't you say that this Lord of the White People actually comes from another world?
There is also an earth-moving dragon that is tens of meters high...Why, have you thought that he has never seen the 'melting mountain beast'? Why not say that Ian can also transform into a white and blue-eyed crystal dragon, spitting out thunderous destructive bombs?
Naimo scoffed at the news, but the entire mountain people in Naimo were full of these messy rumors, as if someone was deliberately spreading propaganda to disrupt the situation.
But, even so.
As a professional intelligence officer, Naimo still summarized the core elements of all rumors from the chaos.
--The Avod tribe rekindled the sacred mountain sacrifice fire, and the White People's lord led by Xiahun became the messenger of the Dragon God.
At the same time, Manya Afud became the third energy level.
No matter how outrageous the other news is, Ian and Manya are the protagonists of this storm.
The rekindling of the sacrificial fire has indeed caused many wavering mountain tribes to gradually become more inclined.
In just a few days, the situation between Feiyandi and the rebellious mountain people became dangerous. Many spies were even discovered and uncovered by the proactive mountain people.
In a short period of time, Feiyandi's intelligence system was in chaos.
And the root of all this is because of the successful breakthrough in Manya Adventure.
He crossed the threshold of one thousandth success rate and overcame the demon in his heart.
Only by reaching the third energy level can we lead the mountain people forward, but without leading the mountain people forward, we cannot reach the third energy level. This common paradox joke is actually for all those who want to reach the third energy level from the second energy level. A high wall to face.
--You can't realize your dreams without power, but you can't get power without realizing your dreams. To put it bluntly, it's that simple.
There are many extremely talented sublimators, but because their dreams are too high and too far, they cannot achieve them, and they cannot cross the high wall of ideological shackles, so they can only stay at the second level throughout their lives, even if the magic medicine is used early. Even if it is ready, it cannot be taken.
If you want to break through it, in addition to 'firm belief', you can only 'practice'
Even if you have no power, you must complete your dreams step by step... Only in this way can sublimators who do not put everything in their power of sublimation gain the power of sublimation that transcends themselves.
Then awaken the light body of the heart.
What a huge irony.
Those who crave power are destined to not get it, but those who do not rely solely on it can always reap unexpected joys.
"The strategy needs to change, and the direction of Frodo Autonomous Region and Avod Ministry needs to be increased."
Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Naimo muttered: "Fortunately, the King of the Mountain has also left the Mars Mountains. The range in which the dragon group can move has expanded, and the area of deterrence has also increased - the Steel Winged Dragon Group is the Nanling Strategy The main point is that as long as the dragon group is not in chaos, everything else is not a big deal.
"The next focus is on the decisive battle between the Avod tribe and the Jiamu tribe, and the ownership of the Frodo autonomous region."
After drawing a circle on the map, Naimo fell silent. After a while, he dialed a few more secret frequencies.
"really."
After getting the news from the deepest hidden people, the captain thought thoughtfully: "Ian has left the Avod tribe, and the tribe has also released food supply. He should have reached an agreement with Manya on food. cooperation agreement.”
"The strategy of relying on supplies to suppress the situation has failed."
"That's the only way we can wait for news from the Xiahui Territory... We can't let the Xiahui Territory merge with the Germanium Steel Mountain. We must create some commotion there."
Compared with the Avod Department, which can basically determine the direction of action, Naimo believes that Ian, the unstable factor, needs more attention.
Although many spies and informants from Xia Hui's leadership have been purged, there are still some deeply hidden secrets lurking... - They should be able to do something.
Naimo believes that things are not that bad... he still has a chance to reverse the situation.
The man slowly placed the report in his hand on the table and closed his eyes.
"It's time to give the dragons a new mission."
In another conference room, a report was opened.
"This is the list of spies from Feiyandi. All the ones in the territory are here."
When Ian returned to his territory, he immediately came to the city hall.
He found Old Farr, who was leading Scott to familiarize himself with the work of the city hall, and gave such a list.
"Well... Master, the people here are not ordinary..."
Old Farr took a rough look at the list and found that it corresponded to the people in his memory. He couldn't help showing a subtle expression: "Many of these people are responsible for the actual work in the domain... They have all been instigated to rebel, which is enough to prove that Feiyandi The underground work was done very well.”
--But on the other hand, how did his lord get this list? The old man was a little confused.
"Take us to have a look." Of course Ian would not say that he had specially placed these people in special positions and asked them to report some information to Feiyandi.
Moreover, just because they are spies, these people work very conscientiously and do not dare to slack off in their work. They work reliably and will never arouse the suspicion of everyone in the territory.
The young man even specially arranged for Scott to work overtime for these spies, asking them to work 996 or even 997. They may be ordered to work temporarily at any time outside of the break time, - one person works as three people - these people did not dare to protest, it can be said He is from Gongxian County
Tool man m
Of course, as a sign of mercy, Ian will pay overtime as normal, which is considered part of the meal plan.
But now that the situation has reached its current state, it’s time to screen out some people.
Killing a few would make Feiyandi believe in the people who stayed.
Ian pointed to the list: "Old Farr, please help me find out which of these spies can be left behind. Even if there is an accident, it will not cause much damage."
"It would be great if they could in turn cause harm to Feiyandi."
Quite an embarrassing request. But the old man bowed slightly: "It's my pleasure."
Xiahui Lake, construction site.
There is some drizzle today, and the lake surface is slightly rippled by the breeze. A large open space has been cleared by the lakeside, and many workers are constructing here, digging rock formations and laying a solid foundation.
Professional craftsmen and construction teams from the Yinfang Chamber of Commerce have been working for a long time. Fortunately, the surrounding areas of Xiahui Lake are rocky terrain, not common mud and sand terrain. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to prevent the building foundation from sinking. Difficult matter.
The light rain does not affect the start of construction, at least not so much in Terra. Although the construction team has not yet understood the concept of 'modular building' proposed by Ian, it is still in the initial foundation stage, and there is no rush for the subsequent main body. Building construction.
Hydroponic farm... Although it is a brand new concept, you can tell exactly what kind of building it is by just hearing the name. The construction team is also very interested in this new building, and everyone is working very energetically.
However, the workload is also huge. They need to first explore all the areas around Xiahui Lake that meet Ian's requirements, and then make sure that all the buildings to be constructed and the internal inscription array roads will not interfere with each other - this is a big project, and it needs to be done slowly.
Come.
Otherwise, no one will feel that it is the lord who suffers the loss.
Xiahui led the staff of the city hall to interface with the construction team and was responsible for the construction team's meals and some daily water and other care.
"Director Gamma, are you coming in person today?"
The foreman, who was communicating with his workers about the construction route and the amount of materials, heard the noise. He raised his head and saw a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties coming with a team of carriages and horses, and he hurried to meet him.
This manager of Gama has slightly rounded cheeks, quite lively eyes, and a rather handsome figure. He always looks smiling, making people feel close to him subconsciously.
When Supervisor Gama saw that the construction team was still working, he stepped forward to shake hands with the foreman and said kindly: "Oh, Captain Jela, are you asking for trouble again? Working in the rain is not very efficient. There is no need to make the workers work so hard. "
"When something goes wrong, you will be the one who suffers the damage, and the lord's time will be delayed. I will also be held accountable."
He turned sideways, raised his hand, showed off the team of carriages and horses behind him, and said enthusiastically: "I think the rain will get heavier soon. Why don't we let everyone rest first, drink some hot soup, and eat some wheat cakes."
"When the rain stops, I will have more energy to work."
The team of carriages and horses was obviously the food he prepared. The staff of the city hall opened the back door of the car, and the hot wheat cakes and stewed pork ribs and bean soup were displayed in front of everyone. The aroma made the foreman swallow his throat slightly, and even Ji thanks. c
Working for the nobility is always polarizing. If you meet someone with a kind temperament, you just need to focus on work and close the deal steadily, and the salary will mostly be generous.
When you meet someone who is demanding, it is considered a good thing to be criticized. Not to mention the salary, if you are even slightly unsatisfied, you may be in danger of your life.
Although the new lord led by Xia Hui has strict requirements and tight deadlines, he is generally a good person, especially his salary is very sufficient, which is better than many old nobles who seem to be wealthy.
And although the Gamma steward under him was a newcomer who was recently promoted in the civil service examination, he was indeed reliable and caring. He was much more reliable than the stewards in the several territories they had been to.
After Steward Gama returned to the territory with a congratulatory convoy, some workers couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if all the noble stewards were people like Director Gama. We would work hard and the progress would be faster."
"Eat your wheat cake, how many good people like this can be left in this life?" When the foreman heard this, he couldn't help laughing and scolding, but he was a little confused in his heart.
In recent times, Supervisor Gamma has been too diligent in coming to the construction site.
Although it is always a good thing to bring some comfort food or tea every time.
But, does this also mean that the lord values the work of himself and others?
Thinking of this, the foreman couldn't help but be alert - he really tried his best to do this job well!
Otherwise, every piece of cake that I and others eat and every sip of soup that I and others drink will probably cost ten times more from their stomachs!
"You lazy guys, take a rest! We'll start working when it rains less!" He shouted to all the workers: "Cheer up, all of you. If I find you lazy, I won't wait for the lord to take care of you. I’ll bury the rest in the foundation first!”
"Yes, head!"
There was joy and laughter on the construction site, while Ian, Scott and Old Farr were floating in mid-air, overlooking the scene.
The floating ice crystals condensed into translucent clouds, lifting everyone up like a solid glass floor. Scott had already experienced the skills of his lord, and Old Farr was a little surprised at Ian's age and his skillful operation skills. did not match, but in the end it was not sent -
"Kama... I didn't expect the spy to be him."
Old Farr looked at the engineering supervisor who had walked away. He pondered, recalled the information, and said slowly: "He was also the manager of the building materials of the Lord's Mansion. He is a veteran of the Ryan family. He has a very good reputation for his conduct in life. Even though It was the Ryan family that was removed, and he also
You shouldn't throw yourself into the flying flames. "
The old man said firmly: "I guess the problem lies with his son. As far as I know, his son married the daughter of a scholar in Nauman City a few years ago. Although it was later discovered that there was no such scholar in the area, he had already Pregnant, gave birth to a child, daughter-in-law works hard to run the house
, and don’t care about these little things. "
"There must be something wrong with the wife there, and Gama is not stupid. After being threatened, she must have known that she was on a pirate ship. But with a grandson, things will be a lot more troublesome. We can't let the child lose his mother and let the son turn against himself."
"There are not so many things in the world that reveal your loved ones."ccccc
Speaking of this, Old Farr couldn't help but sigh: "That's how people are, - if they start to make mistakes, if they don't cut it off immediately, they will fall deeper and deeper, and they will take chances."
"This is really troublesome."
Ian also frowned slightly: "This kind of infiltration is impossible to prevent... Even if I can find every spy, there will still be one less talent in the territory."
Although Gamma is a spy, he does work seriously and is a very capable person. If he wasn't a spy, Ian would definitely be quite satisfied with him.
"Is there any way to avoid it?" the boy asked.
"There is no way." Old Farr narrowed his dark golden eyes and said in a deep voice: "Even if your lord is very tolerant and willing to forgive Gama's sins, you will definitely not reuse their family in the future - this family has lost its All possibilities for advancement within your territory
"This means that there is no future, or the future of future generations. Do you think they will take the risk and hide it from you, or surrender to you and confess their mistakes?"
"Now that we have been dragged into the water, there is no way back."
"But." At this point, Old Farr changed the subject: "Everything must have hope. Gamma's hope does not lie in himself, but in his grandson, so he is different from others in that he can It depends on how you plan to use it."
"I don't think there are many people left on the list, but Gamma is one."
Old Farr's idea is actually very simple: he believes that during the recent period, Feiyandi will definitely send people to attack the territory, interfering with the Xiahui Territory and preventing them from connecting with the Avod Tribe.
And Kama as the supervisor. It must be the information provider of the relevant attack target.
As long as Gama is willing to assist the Lord's Mansion in providing false information to Feiyandi, and he is willing to use himself as bait and use his life to lure Feiyandi's troops into a trap... Then, regardless of whether Gama is dead or not, the past events can be - Pen written off.
Even if the troops sent by Fei Yan Land are large in number and of high value...then there is nothing wrong with leaving Gama's position and performing meritorious deeds!
"I'll leave this matter to you. It's best to reduce the number of infiltrations, convince Gamma, and make up a good excuse to make the raid force sent by Feiyandi a little stronger."
After speaking, Ian motioned to Scott to learn from Old Farr. must
Although he can tell who the spy is, there are always people being deceived, which is not a good thing for the territory.
"I will do it. Mr. Farr did teach me a lot of useful experience." The young Iron Man nodded seriously. He had learned a lot from this old man recently, and it even gave him the idea of becoming a disciple. impulse.
Ian handed over all matters in this area to Old Farr, and then summoned all officials in the city hall to announce the territory's 'winter bandit suppression' plan.
From the perspective of the Terran people, the area around the Xiahui Territory has actually returned to calm, and can even be said to be quite peaceful, but based on Ian's request, it is still somewhat disappointing.
Nowadays, in the mountains and hills around the territory, there are still some broken troops of the rebel mountain people, and there are also a lot of veteran robbers and bandits - although because of the mountain people's rebellion, these former 'black evil elements' Facing true rebellion
The chaotic army all shrank back and did not dare to move, but after Ian calmed down the surrounding situation, these people all came forward.
Some time ago, several caravans were intercepted by roving robbers. Although no losses were caused, it did cause panic.
No one in Xiahui's leadership expressed any objection to this.
As for suppressing bandits, we must suppress them at all times. It is impossible not to suppress them.
Think about it, the caravan went out of the territory with its goods and was happily shopping, but suddenly it was robbed by bandits - a good day without bandits.
Especially now that Xia Hui's military force is far greater than before. He can crush any robbers without any damage. This is basically a free effort. Many people are already thinking about how to insert their juniors into the militia and mix up with them. Some merit.
As for other spies with ulterior motives, all they wanted to do was to spread the news to Feiyandi as soon as possible.
That's what Ian wanted. He announced that the matter would be left to Scott to handle, and then took his real team back to the Lord's Mansion and held another small meeting.
"Obviously, the territory will dispatch all militiamen to suppress bandits and conduct drills." He said: "But Qingchao will lead a small team of troops and wait for my news at the mouth of Gu Yanfeng Gorge."
"It must be done secretly, can it be done?"
"No problem, boss." Qingchao said cheerfully: "Isn't the new director of the mechanical department, Roland, currently exploring the Xiakou Flatland? I just said that I would lead a team to protect him. No one will doubt this excuse."
"That's right." Ian nodded slightly, even a little pleased: "As soon as the news arrives, you will lead the team and rush into the Midela Autonomous Region to create chaos with me."
"yes!"
In Terra, there is a saying that if there is no lord, one has to stay in the rear to stabilize people's hearts. If there is really going to be a war, the lord with the highest combat power must take action. Otherwise, ordinary troops will have no power to fight back against other Ascended Ones.
But even with this tradition, Ian's actions were still too risky.
Adlbert frowned slightly. He wanted to speak and accompany Ian to raid the Midela Autonomous Region, but Ian seemed to have anticipated his thoughts and raised his hand to signal him to stop.
After Ian finished handing over other tasks, he left Adlbert alone, and the two of them went to the alchemy laboratory together.
"I am apparently the strongest ascendant in the territory, but too many eyes are focused on me."
Regarding Adlbert, who knew his true identity, Ian said bluntly: "So I can't use my full strength... unless I act alone."
"Although you won't expose my strength, you will expose yourself - Adlbert, don't forget, you are Archduke Thorin's royal researcher, and I'm afraid your identity has been found out by someone who is interested. -Dan If exposed, it will implicate me."
"At that time." Ian humorously condensed a bubble in mid-air with the water element, and then popped it gently with his finger: "Pop - everything in us will explode and become salty." A big firework."
"Yes, yes... As expected, it's better if I don't cause you any trouble."
When Albert realized this, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
After all, he still wanted to help Ian.
In response, Ian stretched out his hand, patted the dead king researcher's shoulder, and encouraged: "Don't worry, although you are like me, you can't use your full strength at will... But next, Feiyandi will definitely look for opportunities. Raid territory.”
"At that time, you can serve as a lurking raider and our special force to assassinate those in the Flying Flame Land!"
"Not to mention, I still need your help with many things in terms of research. It would be a waste to let a genius like you work as a thug."
Ian took out the information related to the 'Crystalized Blood Hunter' and the 'Insect Swarm Psychic Network' from his arms: "This is...well. Anyway, it is a piece of special modified biological information that I got. We don't have it in our territory for the time being. conditions to create it, but the idea
, I think it is quite interesting, and we can study it together at that time. "
"Specially modified creatures? From the Flying Flame Land?"
Adlbert took the document from Ian's hand, looking eager to try.
He believed that Ian would not give tasks that were too unchallenging and that they would be difficult so that his days in Xiahui Ling would not be boring.
Adlbert has always liked challenges. Otherwise, he would not hold a high position with Archduke Thorin and take on one after another difficult tasks that ordinary researchers are not willing to do.
However, he did not look at this information for the first time.
Because Adalbert could see that Ian still had something to say to him.
"Adlbert." As expected, the white-haired boy pondered for a while and said slowly: "Do you know...the devil?"
"It's not the 'Shadow Demon', 'Ogre' or 'Troll' creature in Aliens... but a subspace demon in the true sense."
After saying this, Ian looked serious: "How much do you know about this kind of creature?"
"Demon?" Adalbert was confused for a moment, and then he responded: "Oh, the ethereal demon... I know it very well, and I have even dissected several of them myself."
"Furthermore, Ian has actually faced the power of this creature before."
He raised his hand and pointed to the belt around Ian's waist with a smile: "Dead River Arms."
"The two core powers of the Dead River Arms, 'Dead River Rebirth' and 'Soul Fusion Power,' are derived from a 'blood demon' that lives deep in the abyss of subspace."
