Response...
Unlike the emotions of others, Lin Feng understood that this was an inevitable situation in the game of power. There was no right or wrong in the Seventh Bureau's actions; it was just one part of the game between the three parties.
He doesn't demand that the Seventh Bureau immediately protect anyone's rights, but only that everything be laid out openly and discussed properly!
After a brief silence, Lin Feng asked, "Is the Double Pupil in the Seventh Institution?"
“Yes, he’s in the Seventh Bureau.” Yuan Qixuan nodded.
As expected... He had been waiting all along... Lin Feng fell silent again.
"Don't even think about it, there's still the Foundation." Si Zang suddenly broke the silence: "Although there is only one branch of the Foundation in this hybrid world, the commotion caused by this evil is quite significant. Many participants who have secretly learned the Evil Origin Path techniques have set their sights on this world."
Tang Hong continued, "Although their target is not Evil Begins Evil, they all want to find some opportunities in this world, especially the anthropomorphic pollution left by Evil Begins Evil in various places, which has become their primary research object."
"As for the Yin-Yang Stream... they seem to have completed their reorganization. There are no apparent changes, and some of them are investigating the matter of evil giving rise to evil." Tang Hong said uncertainly, "Others might not be curious about the matter of evil giving rise to evil, but Ohno probably won't miss this opportunity."
“They’ve already sent people to investigate, which is enough to show that they’re ready to take action.” Yuan Qixuan said decisively, “The Seventh Bureau has included them in its defense plan. If we enter that world, we can rest assured about our safety behind us.”
"This is the Seventh Bureau! The schemes of Yin Sitian and his gang are nothing compared to what the Seventh Bureau has been preparing for!" Si Zang said excitedly, "Whatever, there are many scoundrels within the Daoist sect, but the Seventh Bureau, the official force, cannot be underestimated!"
"Si'er, stop calling." Tang Hong pressed Si Zang down.
Tang Hong felt helpless. It would be fine if it were just the few of them, but with so many people now... their understanding of interests was bound to be somewhat skewed.
They don't expect everyone to have a high level of understanding of the greater good versus personal gain, but when it comes to the collective interest, they certainly don't want Lin Feng, and the person who can bring them the greatest benefit, to become someone else's puppet or a victim for no reason.
“I’m going to the Seventh Bureau to talk to Chongtong.” Lin Feng stood up at this moment: “Replenishing the Heavenly Dao of Yin Sitian is not a problem. On the contrary, I will also become the controller of the Heavenly Dao of Yin Sitian, and their biggest threat will disappear.”
"Yes, so this is a game of strategy!" Qu Nan couldn't help but exclaim.
“It’s a battle of wits, and also a battle of wills,” Sun He added. “From this perspective, they might think they can’t kill you, so they’re trying to wear you down through willpower, or even take the opportunity to seriously injure you.”
“We can sign a contract,” Si Zang immediately waved his hand, “What’s so difficult about that?”
“What if something unexpected happens?” Sun He said again, “Whether it’s intentional or unintentional, they have plenty of time to plot against him. Contracts aren’t omnipotent.”
"Alright." Shizang's smile faded.
“Take it one step at a time. It’s not a big problem if we suffer a little loss.” Lin Feng suppressed his slightly agitated aura: “It won’t be easy for Yin Sitian to take me down. If Xie Shengxie knows that I’m going in, he won’t just sit idly by.”
"Yes," everyone silently agreed.
"Negotiating with Chongtong is one thing, sending someone into the Chaotic World to inform Xie Shengxie is another, and also..." Lin Feng continued, "From the perspective of the Seventh Bureau, any incident involving any of the three of us would be a loss for them, and they would absolutely not be ambiguous about this matter."
"Therefore, we need to focus our vigilance on the Foundation and Ohno."
Seeing that the undercurrent of tension among the crowd was gradually subsiding, Lin Feng continued, "The Seventh Bureau's approach is bound to be different from ours. They are pursuing balance, while we are pursuing profit. Only balance can help us, while profit will only make others keep a closer eye on us."
He didn't know if any of his teammates had clashed with the Seventh Bureau, or if they simply disliked the so-called authoritarian institutions and believed that everything was a case of the upper echelons exploiting the lower echelons.
Whether these ideas are right or wrong can be determined simply by looking at the results.
When they become leaders, if they take it for granted that the lower classes should be deprived and persecuted, they should understand what is right.
What he needs to do is not to remind them of right and wrong, but to make them understand the situation.
While it is impossible to ideally bring everyone together, seeking common ground while reserving differences and uniting common interests can create a powerful force.
"According to the three groups that Yuan Qixuan has assigned, Si Zang, you are responsible for continuing to collect information, Shuang Yue, you will focus on Yin Yang Liu."
"good."
Seeing this, Lin Feng said nothing more and turned to leave the personal space with Yuan Qixuan.
...
In the real world, it's the seventh inning.
An ordinary cluster of buildings in the mountains, far from the bustling city center.
"Welcome, welcome!" Old Zhang smiled and opened the array module on the outer layer of the building complex, inviting, "Oh my, I knew I hadn't misjudged you, you're really amazing."
"Old Zhang, are you in charge of this mission?" Lin Feng stepped inside, and in the blink of an eye, a huge bronze cauldron appeared before him.
The Nine Cauldrons!
There are nine in total, which are also the nine branches of the Seventh Bureau, and this is the headquarters of the Seventh Bureau.
"Of course not, this old man doesn't have such a big ambition. I'm just here to show you the way since we're getting to know each other." Old Zhang pointed to the three-story building behind the giant cauldron.
The three-story building is the office area, while the other side of the three-story building is the living area, which contains many family members of participants who joined the Seventh Bureau, as well as many family members of staff who are responsible for managing the participants.
"Kid, headquarters has summoned five top experts this time. These guys... are no ordinary people, and they're not much different from you." Old Zhang walked ahead, his voice gradually reaching Lin Feng's ears.
Who are they?
Not to mention China's five thousand years of history, Nightmare Space may have already drawn people in from even more distant times, and naturally, there are countless masters among them.
"Hahaha." Old Zhang stepped into the three-story building: "Don't rush, I'll introduce it to you right away."
The front door of the small building opened, and a cool, refreshing aura immediately wafted out of the room. Inside, five people with different expressions were already seated at the long conference table.
Some of the old-fashioned meeting rooms had a fan hanging above them, slowly turning, disrupting the sunlight streaming in from the windows and creating swirling shadows.
"please!"
Old Zhang walked in first, and Lin Feng also looked at the sixth person on the conference table, a man sitting at the farthest point, the director of the Seventh Bureau.
"Please sit wherever you like, don't be shy." The director invited in a friendly tone, using Old Zhang's voice as an excuse: "There aren't many rules here. It's already a great honor for everyone to be here at the Seventh Bureau."
Lin Feng pulled out a chair and casually asked, "Didn't Chong Tong come?"
"He'll be here soon." The director had barely finished speaking when footsteps sounded outside the door. That familiar, chilling aura rushed into the meeting room first, then quickly dissipated onto the floor.
"Number, we've finally met."
The familiar voice, the familiar aura, and that familiar gaze—the moment the other person entered, Lin Feng felt as if he had been seen naked and sensed a threat.
