Li Miaomiao knew this must have been Zheng Li's doing, so she would definitely have similar information security measures in place when talking to the artificial intelligence.

Zheng thought about it and still raised his question:

"I could clearly sense that the Goryeo officials who just met me actually did not want virtual reality technology to be born."

Why didn't they use violence against me, such as assassination?

I've seen online that many people, from organizations to individuals, harbor resentment towards virtual reality.

They believe it has affected their lives and caused their wealth to shrink significantly.

When our brain-computer interface phone was first introduced, someone even tried to hack into our R&D center in Singapore.

Why doesn't anyone do that anymore?

Based on my observations of Earth's history, Earthlings have never shied away from using violence.

After thinking for a moment, Li Miaomiao replied, "Because the risk and the reward are not proportional."

First of all, you are a mage, and a mage in the truest sense, unlike any other mage on Earth.

Nobody knows what methods they'll use to get rid of you.

And whether or not it's possible to physically kill you.

For example, you were clearly parasitizing that person at the Nobel Prize ceremony before you left.

Nobody knows if Zheng Li is your real identity.

Or rather, everyone believes that Zheng Li is 99% not your real identity.

As for where your true identity is, no one knows.

And you are a threat to everyone.

The risks involved are extremely high, and the returns are completely unknown.

Any organization with a modicum of sense wouldn't do something so thankless and exhausting.

As for those desperate criminals who dare to take action, they cannot enter China.

Another very important reason is that, in the eyes of other countries, you and China have reached a cooperative relationship to some extent.

At the same time, offending both China and a mage whose exact abilities are unknown is a risk that even America cannot afford.

With their example serving as a warning, no one dared to follow suit.

Li Miaomiao continued, "To put it bluntly, it's all about deterrence. Your deterrent power is right here."

If they send their underlings to do the dirty work and fail to take you down, they themselves will be the ones to be taken down.

Those in power wouldn't take that risk.

Your attack transcends spatial dimensions.

This is why, even though America knew Zheng Li's true identity, they only dared to obtain the life-extending drug through negotiation.

Even though they desperately wanted to prolong their lives.

This is the benefit of successful deterrence.

Deterrence is a force that makes others genuinely afraid, not just empty words.
