Chapter 70: Reasoning
Da Liang didn't explain much to Hauge about this matter, and there was no need to explain it to him. He just gives the task and lets the right people do it.
Hauge left the Élysée Avenue to take office, and the backbone of the Brotherhood disappeared from the Special Security Service, and the organization was reorganized and re-screened, cutting off some untrustworthy members, and the new Brotherhood became the third intelligence agency in the province of Marcellus.
As the new boss, Hauge gives the Brotherhood the task he received from Da Liang.
Purchasing arms was not a difficult task for the Brotherhood, but Davide was surprised by the large amount.
Davide is the "head" of the Brotherhood, and as the leader of the five founders, it can be seen that he is a man of real ability. But in the Special Security Service, he is an ordinary liaison in the office hall. In the institutions of the Empire, it is difficult to be reused and promoted without a background, not to mention that Davide's combat ability is not outstanding, he is only a fifth-order intermediate magician.
He then held that position for more than twenty years.
He knows that he is very strong in organizational skills and can see the characteristics of everyone. His work has given him access to a lot of secrets and he has been trying to develop his own course of action for some cases. He once showed his talents to his superiors...... But he was still an ordinary clerical officer.
This made him extremely disappointed in the Security Service.
So he and some like-minded colleagues used their positions to take personal jobs for their own benefit. Because Davide's abilities are really good, they make a lot of money and don't have to worry about being discovered. Slowly, Davide became the leader of the small group......
And then slowly, the fraternity became this size.
In the beginning, no one wanted to make the Brotherhood so big, but once they were done, they became uncontrollable.
Perhaps Davide's subconscious wanted to prove himself in this way.
For the new boss of the Brotherhood, Davide has no loyalty to Hauge, and of course he is not willing to let his heart and soul be taken away by a Eater of Souls with five drow elves, but in the face of the threat to his life, he can only temporarily endure and wait for the opportunity.
The first thing to know is who you're working for, who the owner behind this Eater of Souls is, and what kind of power she has.
This batch of arms orders may be a breakthrough.
Then Davide saw on the order several types of medium-caliber shells that only the Holy See of the Highest Kindness used.
In Marcellus, only the Supreme Church uses the standard weapons of the Holy See, and the Supreme Church does not need to buy arms and ammunition secretly.
Then, the Council of Marcellus ordered a shipment of arms from the Holy See for Goodness, which the Brotherhood had helped to transport into the Blue Cathedral. It's just that this batch of munitions was not obtained by the council, but was drowned in the arsenal of the Blue Cathedral.
As for the scattered smuggled weapons...... Ammunition of such a large scale is not needed, there is no need to think about it.
Then there is only one possibility left, that is, the weapons in the Blue Cathedral were not submerged, but ...... Someone quietly got rid of it.
Now they consumed the ammunition of that batch of arms before they thought of smuggling it in through the Brotherhood.
Although Davide did not believe that anyone could transport so many munitions under the watchful eye of the Blue Cathedral. But all impossible options are ruled out, and the rest, no matter how bizarre, is the truth.
Interesting.
In addition to the Empire, the Parliament, and the Church of the Most Good, there was a fourth great power in the land of Marcellus. Not only is it training its own army, but it is also co-opting the Brotherhood to develop its own intelligence system. This is a sign of restlessness......
Secretly being so active means that the ambition is huge. In public, this force must also be actively expanding its influence.
Who has been most active in Saroyan lately? Who has a large number of strong men? Who has the financial resources to buy so many arms? Who has the motivation to form a private army and develop an intelligence system?
The answer is already very obvious...... It's the Black Fire Company.
It seems that the Black Fire Company kills the devil, and it is not as simple as speculating on housing prices.
Although Davide guessed that Haoge might be behind Young Master Liang of the Black Fire Company, he didn't show anything. Instead, he suggested: "The quantity of this batch of arms is somewhat large, and the one-time purchase will definitely attract the Holy See to trace the whereabouts of the arms and our identity." I propose to purchase piecemeal and then meet through different channels and send it to Saroyan. A small amount of munitions is easy to hide, but the process is longer. ”
In the Brotherhood's exclusive founders room, Hauge's projection was in a trance, and he replied to Davide's suggestion, "Your suggestion is very pertinent, and that's what you're good at. This batch of arms will be purchased from different sources in small quantities according to your method, but it should not be delayed for too long.
Do this well and you'll get the reward you deserve, and I promise you'll love it.
Then we turn to the second assignment given to the Brotherhood by the master. ”
At this time, Davide was analyzing what was the purpose of this series of operations of the Black Fire Company?
Responding to a military attack by Scarab?
Or do you want to take advantage of the intensification of the contradictions between the empire and the parliament to take away a piece of land from Marcellus?
Or maybe Blackfire is greedy enough to swallow all of Marcellus into its mouth?
There are too few clues, and maybe enough information can be found in this second mission.
"Lord Hauge, please command ......"
While Davide waited to analyze Blackfire's purpose from the second mission, he heard a completely confusing task. There is no connection to the first mission, not even to the functions of the intelligence agencies.
Hauge didn't tell Davide about the aliens and the Star Alliance, he just said that the Brotherhood "imagined it for itself, or adapted the cases encountered, and the subject matter was not limited." Then there is no limit to the number of inferential or expeditionary quest chains in Marcellus and even around the world.
It is required that the task chain must be rigorous, and it cannot be pre-arranged at a glance. It is necessary to make the people who complete the task gain at every stage, but they also have to pay ......"
Hauge didn't know what Da Liang wanted to do with this strange task, so he could only repeat Da Liang's request and let the Brotherhood play it.
Professionalism is a thing, let professional people do it.
Afraid that Davide would ask for the details of the mission and not be able to answer himself, Hauge cut off the projection and left the conference room after giving the second assignment, leaving Davide standing there thinking about what kind of mission this mission was?
Who is the infinite number of fabricated quest chains for?
It costs countless amounts of money to arrange so many task chains, so it shouldn't be a task to assess the ability of the brotherhood, right?
