Chapter 368 Making Things Big
The text message sent by Shimotsuki had been specially processed. If it were not for the full efforts of the intelligence department of the Special Management Bureau to track it down, it would have been almost impossible to catch any trace of it.
The content of this message was also very strange. There was no context. It listed a series of Special Management Bureau team numbers and some hidden troops and executors, including Elizabeth's name.
After a brief discussion, Li Muhan and others were convinced that the troops and personnel listed in the text message were the personnel of the Special Management Bureau that could be mobilized by the person who controlled the Linyue Church behind the scenes.
And it was these troops that were responsible for encircling himself and Xia Yue in the underground parking lot just now.
But what surprised Li Muhan and others most about this information was not how large these troops were, but the last note.
The roots of the Kumogakure Chamber of Commerce and the Ringetsu Church will eventually become intertwined.
"It's unbelievable..." After seeing the list, Xingli, who had transformed into a young girl, frowned slightly: "I didn't expect that the person behind the Lingyue Church and the Yunyin Chamber of Commerce is actually the same person..."
Although we still don't know who this person is, there is no doubt that he has considerable say in the Special Management Bureau. After all, he can train so many troops and executors directly under his command, so his identity must be extraordinary.
"It seems... even if your actions these past few days, Li Muhan, have caused such a big stir, it's all in vain now. Because the confiscated Rinyue Powder may eventually return to this person. She only needs to change the name and replace the Rinyue Church with another organization to continue selling the Rinyue Powder."
Xingli said somewhat frustratedly.
"No." Li Muhan shook his head: "Things may be worse. The mastermind behind this doesn't need to create another organization because we have already created one for her..."
Mask Gang.
Li Muhan, Xia Yue, Xingli and others all remembered the people who appeared in the underground parking lot today, including Elizabeth, who were all wearing masks. At first, Li Muhan thought that they did not want to reveal their identities, but now it seems that these people want to directly take the name of the Mask Gang for themselves.
"...It's hopeless. We are hopeless. Fighting against such a terrifying force, wow, wow, we are doomed."
Nightingale collapsed on the sofa and started crying.
The others also looked unhappy. Even Xia Yue seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem: "...The alien combat power possessed by the Special Management Bureau is the strongest among all the special management bureaus."
She pointed to a few names on the list and said, "There are two world-destroying anomalies in the Pingjing City Special Management Bureau, and this list... includes one of them."
Everyone looked at the name Xia Yue was pointing at.
"Captain of the Special Operations Team of the Special Management Bureau, Xuanwu."
When everyone heard Xia Yue say this name, their hearts skipped a beat; even the fat clown and Nightingale began to tremble.
"...This, this is impossible...Xuanwu...Xuanwu is the guardian of the northern land. How could he...possibly possess such power that can be misappropriated by individuals..."
Nightingale's voice was already tinged with tears. Magician Luo Chenming, toying with a playing card, said, "It's not impossible... Although the four divine beasts of China guard the four directions of the earth respectively, their clones also live in this world in their own ways. Wasn't the Western White Tiger also commissioned by the Luoyun City Special Management Bureau to participate in the last exchange conference?"
Li Muhan and Xia Yue were eyewitnesses to this incident, and the power of the White Tiger still makes them feel frightened.
This time, they will face another holy beast... This kind of world-destroying monster is so powerful that even its clone is astonishingly powerful.
"Not just Xuanwu." The little white cat Xingluo also noticed several other names.
"If all the names on these lists really appeared before us... the consequences would be disastrous."
The atmosphere at the scene fell into a strange silence for a while.
Finally, it was Xingli who broke the silence. She sighed deeply, then walked to the table, looked at everyone and said, "This matter started because of me. If I hadn't asked Li Muhan to negotiate with the Yunyin Chamber of Commerce, none of this would have happened. I will surrender myself to the Special Management Bureau."
"Sister...even if we surrender ourselves to the Special Management Bureau, we'll probably be dealt with secretly by that person. There's no chance we'll actually stand up and face the judgment."
Xingluo said somewhat frustratedly, "And... this incident was caused by me. If I hadn't injured the people from Yunyin Chamber of Commerce out of impulse, I wouldn't have..."
"well......"
The fat clown who always acted as a peacemaker was no longer in high spirits. Even Luo Chenming stopped playing with the cards in his hand, and Nightingale was already crying on the sofa.
"Alright, alright, let's hold the reflection meeting before we die."
Li Muchan slammed the table several times, interrupting everyone's pessimism. When everyone looked at him, Li Muchan tore the printed list into several pieces.
"What are you doing?" Xingli asked.
Li Muhan sneered and said, "When I was in the orphanage, the director taught me something very practical."
He tore the pieces of paper carefully, as cautiously as if he was deciphering a code, and each torn piece of paper was placed precisely on the map of Pingjing City spread out on the table.
And those pieces of paper are now like chess pieces marking the enemy.
"The best way to make your enemy uncomfortable is to do the opposite. The more this manipulator hiding in the shadows tries to hide, the more we must make this a big deal."
Li Muhan's words were firm and meaningful, and his eyes flashed with strategic sparks.
Xia Yue was not affected by the pessimistic atmosphere around her at all. She always stood by Li Muhan and became his solid backing.
After hearing Li Muhan's plan, she chose to trust him without hesitation: "How to do it?"
"What we have to do is to create a storm, the bigger the better."
Li Muhan's answer was straightforward, his fingers lightly sweeping across the spread-out map.
"Let this storm sweep across the entire Pingjing, and let every corner know about this matter, until it becomes impossible for anyone to cover it up."
Following his instructions, the paper was precisely divided into dozens of pieces, each corresponding to a different area and landmark in Pingjing City.
"This is the known distribution of our adversary's forces, at least as far as the Cloud Hidden Chamber of Commerce's president knows. Our goal is to proactively engage them and dismantle them one by one, creating a powerful storm that will destroy any attempt to conceal the truth."
"...Woo, woo, woo, there should be nothing wrong with your brain, right? You actually said that you want to confront the mastermind who controls part of the power of the Special Management Bureau head-on... woo, woo, you lunatic..." After listening to Li Muhan's plan, Nightingale felt as if she had heard a suicide plan of a moth flying into a flame.
Her despair deepened. The fat clown was obviously not optimistic about Li Muhan's plan: "Mr. Li... I, there are not many people here who can fight. Miss Nightingale and I have little fighting ability. Mr. Luo is not a fighting type... and..."
He glanced at the map and continued, "Besides... the number of enemies is simply too great. Besides, even if we can defeat the others, those Calamity-grade ones, and even that World-annihilation-grade one..."
Snap——
At this moment, a white and delicate finger gently touched a piece of paper on the map on the table, and then picked it up.
Everyone turned around and saw Liu Yuan, who had been silent the entire time. Her eyes were still dull, but she was determined as she held up the piece of paper. "...Leave it to me."
Li Muhan saw it very clearly. The piece of paper she picked up was exactly the disaster-level vampire that had just appeared in the parking lot, Elizabeth Basley.
