1224 Influence
The middle-aged female "bishop" is also a successful businessman in reality, and in terms of the calculation of risks and benefits, of course, he is much stronger than me. Gregora decided to attack the "troupe" in order to assert her own rightness, and I emotionally agreed with her decision, but the reason why the "bishop" approved of this operation was because he had rationally analyzed the risks and benefits - despite the name of the Whisperers' peripheral intelligence organization, people like the "Bishop" were generally focused on strengthening their own organization and providing services to the Whisperers, which could only be regarded as a temporary business focus. In my opinion, there are no other visible benefits in conflict with the "crew" except that it can allow newcomers to adapt to the mysterious world faster, but Gregoya is also a newcomer, and has not yet departed from the way of thinking of normal social organization, and the basis for the "bishop" to make a judgment is still roughly still the risks and benefits that can be seen from the position of an ordinary person.
Compared to the "bishop", Gregia's emotional approach has made it easier for me to survive in my experience. After all, many times, while following sensibility, they also rely on intuition, and people who use reason to calculate everything tend to ignore intuition. On the other hand, if a balance can be obtained from pure reason and intuition, then such a person must be very strong.
I don't think that the "bishop" is such a person. Her heart is still full of emotion, but she is forced to think rationally, and her way of thinking is also biased towards normal people. I don't know how she treats "intuition", but if she's the kind of person who likes to replace intuition with rational thinking, then the plan to attack the "crew's" stronghold could be devastating and even dead. However, I cannot say such things directly to the "bishop". According to my observations and judgments, the "Bishop" has a strong and at the same time more extreme female independence, and her past successes have made her very confident in her own way of thinking, judging and behaving. I don't think that the experience of non-intelligence that comes out of my mouth talks. She'll embrace it all, and maybe it'll backfire.
It's easy to force others to do what they do, and it's not difficult to hypnotize them so that their thoughts change. However, it is extremely difficult to change the nature of a person's mind. Even if you are a consciousness walker, no one can do it. Let the ideological ingredients that make up a person completely deteriorate.
I ended up just being a listener.
The entire attack plan was laid out based on the information obtained by Gregia. The odds of winning, in the eyes of most participants, are more likely to be based on intelligence. After assessing their own strength based on intelligence, Gregoa and the others finally gave up on the idea of attacking four strongholds at once. Strictly speaking, the offensive plan was initially very aggressive, and the morale of the people was very high. However, the fear of the face of black smoke. Let the whole plan gradually become conservative.
"No, if we only attack one stronghold, we can't give the other side enough deterrence, and we can't really weaken their support." The bishop frowned, looked around at the crowd and said, "If it is only to prove his position, this conservative plan is sufficient. However, a conservative plan will only get us into a quagmire. What's the point of just proving one's position, but gradually losing one's advantage? ”
"We don't have enough attackers. If you divide your troops, you will only get into a protracted battle, and the enemy with a stronghold will gradually ease your breath. "It is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten fingers, and we need to concentrate our efforts to destroy at least one stronghold." ”
The quarrel began, but it didn't dwell on it for long, and Zuo Chuan said decisively: "Our side is in charge of one stronghold, and the four of you are in charge of one." Her decision clearly separated the Whisperer Headquarters and the four-member Gregoya Peripheral Intelligence Organization, Gregia frowned slightly, but the "Bishop" had a "as it should be" expression and stopped arguing.
"Gao Chuan, what do you say?" Gregoria asked me.
"I'm in charge of a stronghold by myself." They have their own plans, and I have my own ideas. Although the decision to attack the "crew" this time was made with emotion, it is inevitable to think rationally about the consequences of the action, and whether you can use this action to arrange some foreshadowing. Although I use my emotions to guide my actions, I am not a hot-blooded beast.
The speculative background of the "crew" made me have many associations, and these associations, although there is a lack of evidence, I think, can be used to apply for this operation. According to the original intention of the NOG team to enter Las Vegas, it is to eliminate the threat of the Las Vegas repeater, and from this original intention, it can be inferred that the core of everyone's action can be deduced. On the other hand, other intruders who have entered the world of repeaters should also have some ideas about repeaters, otherwise, it would be unwise to take a huge risk to enter here. All the situations in which the repeater has an idea can be roughly divided into two aspects: "control" and "destruction", however, in my observation and judgment, there is still a small possibility - there are some people who do not value the repeater itself, and they may just want to complete some of their own layout through the mystery of the repeater and the entanglement of all parties.
As a result, the positions of all occult experts and mystical organizations in action, whether or not they have leaked their whereabouts, can be roughly divided into three types: those who care about repeaters and try to seize them, those who use repeaters as traps, and those who target these people.
After careful analysis, you will find that even within the NOG team at this time, on the surface, it seems that the positions are unified, but in essence, it may be that all three positions exist. Because it is so complicated, the true purpose and actions of NOG have become obscure. It may seem strange that NOG is only expanding itself, and neither the Doomsday Shinrikyo nor the Nazis have made any major moves, but as long as we analyze their possibilities from each of these three standpoints, their current development model will become a matter of course.
I don't think the NOG team, or rather, the NOG group dominated by Cyberball, didn't even think about getting the repeater, so it was a question of where the "repeater core" was and what kind of form it was. In fact, there is no interest in how to get it and so on, so there are not too many targeted actions.
The actions of Shinrikyo and the Nazis may seem very slow and hidden, but in reality. But it is a volcano that has been accumulating for a long time, and it has always been in front of everyone's eyes, and it is not afraid of being stopped by others at all. The reason for their lack of movement is that there is no need for any more major movements, and the changes in the entire repeater world are pushing their plans to work normally. Examples include the sacrificial rituals of the Doomsday Shinrikyo, the electronic demon system, and the monsters of the nightmare depths of Las Vegas. The arrival and actions of us, the invaders. It's just the "last piece of the puzzle".
In contrast, the most likely goal is to capture repeaters, which is still Area 51. Their political and limited nature make it unlikely that they will aim to "destroy repeaters" and will not be "the party that snipes at others". The peculiarity of Area 51 is that they are too close to Las Vegas and naturally have the influence of Las Vegas repeaters. For so many years. If anything, they haven't done research on Las Vegas repeaters. That's absolutely impossible. Another impression I have of was the fact that the night of Valpurgis that once erupted in Las Vegas was deeply involved by the people of District 51.
This qiē makes me think that District 51 has an unusual obsession with "seizing the Las Vegas repeater". Most likely, this seizure plan. Before their own repeater was built, zài was already in place. However, it is only now that they feel that the time is ripe.
Outwardly, they have repeaters. A mysterious organization that has accumulated information over time and is more powerful than itself is entangled with each other. As the so-called building near the water, fishing in troubled waters, this kind of thinking is not unique to Asians.
On the basis of this inference, it is clear what Sector 51 might do: first, in order to seize a repeater, it is necessary to figure out the core of the repeater, that is, the way in which the spiritual integration device exists, no matter how strange the movement, revolves around the core of "searching". After that, it is necessary to eliminate potential enemies, gain enough strength, and defeat the enemies who are competing with you, no matter what kind of actions you do, it is all centered on "strengthening yourself and weakening the enemy".
If the "crew" of Nightmare Las Vegas and the "Paris Chinese Strike Regiment" in the normal world are both driven by the "51st District", then the essence of their actions will not be separated from the above two cores.
From this point of view, looking back at what I encountered, the suspicious situations of "probably Area 51" and "I don't know who arranged it" seem to have become clear. It's just that if you want to get evidence, you have to go through it yourself. But that's not the only reason why I decided to go it all down.
There are more people and organizations in action than Ward 51. Although District 51 has a good idea, I am definitely not the only one who can recognize and use it. I never felt that I was the smartest one, but now that the situation is complicated, the strategies of all parties have become entangled, and while using others, they are also being used by others. Therefore, I have to assume that the attack on the "crew" was also expected by others, and the possibility of being used by others, and Tomie has been out of touch for some time, and summing up the past experience, I think it is possible to encounter a situation similar to "being attacked by the final weapon".
In other words, this attack on the "crew" stronghold may evolve into a battle that is far more mysterious than expected. If Gregoria and the others were involved, they would probably end up dying miserably. On the other hand, if the enemy will only attack if I am alone, which is often the case in the past, then I can draw the enemy out as long as I deliberately create a situation where I am alone.
I want to be able to take the initiative, even if it's a trap.
Zuo Chuan's proposal was quickly recognized by everyone. The relationship between the Whisperer Headquarters and the peripheral intelligence organizations is still tepid due to operational divisions. However, the "Bishop", who has a strong desire to control the team, is obviously very satisfied with this relationship. Gregaia, who has shown a leadership temperament, despite some complaints, is still dominated by an offensive plan against the "troupe".
Zuo Chuan left with the female foreman and the female teacher first, and then Gregoria and the others also left the bar. I went back to the bar and asked for a soda, a minute later. John Bull sat down next to me.
"Looks like you're really going to make a big deal?" John Bull knew what was going on. Since it's in this bar, I don't think I can really hide the things we discussed. Talking about those things here is my attitude of release, and John Bull's statement is also a testament to her attitude towards this matter. There is her in the NOG for containment. The potential pressure on Gregoa and the others will be much weakened. It can also be judged from the pressure that the whisperer will face later, and the internal disagreement of the NOG.
"What is the attitude of District 51?" I asked.
"I thought you didn't care about them." John Bull smiled.
"Of course I don't care about them, but I also think it's not a good thing to let them go." I said, "I think they really want to get the Las Vegas repeater." ”
"So, your enemy?" John Bull asked rhetorically.
"Yes." I said to her very bluntly, "I'm going to get the Las Vegas repeater." "I don't think either. John Bull from Cyberball, I don't have any speculation about this, and I definitely can't say it. After all, I had a big fight with them at the beginning of my recovery, and they didn't let go of collecting my numbers after that—two Takakawa appeared at the same time, and if they had nothing to do with each other, they didn't have the slightest influence. That's definitely not what anyone believes.
"District 51 also feels that you are a potential enemy. So, they're trying to keep you from being the real enemy. John Bull said, "But there is a limit to this effort. If you don't mind escalating to an enemy right away, do it as you want. ”
"You can't restrain them?" I asked.
"There's no one here who can really restrain anyone else." John Bull said to me very sternly: "We have no conflict with their goals for the time being, so we will not rush into a potential ally." Become a direct enemy. What they did didn't go beyond our bottom line. Maintaining a tacit attitude is also recognized by the majority of the team, you know, the majority. In many cases, it represents everyone. I'm here to remind you that it's already the limit of what can be done. ”
"Assuming Area 51 attacks the Whisperer headquarters, will our previous transaction still count?" I asked.
"Of course. Our transactions have the highest priority. John Bull replied earnestly: "As long as you are still looking for clues about the Doomsday Shinrikyo Cult, we will maintain the security of the Whisperer headquarters and help you maintain order in your city, even if it is District 51, and do not try to attack your stronghold by any means." But on the other hand, if you leave your stronghold and take the initiative to take action against Area 51, then we will also turn a blind eye to the counterattack of the people of Area 51. ”
John Bull's hint made me understand the danger that Zuo Chuan and the others might encounter this time--before I make a move, the counterattack of the 51st District should not be too strong, and the first attack will not make them make up their minds to regard us as official enemies, but if the action continues, or if I personally intervene, Zuo Chuan and the others will face the pressure of the enemy's momentum. Defeating one or two strongholds of the crew, as I thought, would not frighten them and would not break their advantage, but would only make them go all out to see us as direct enemies.
Once the situation develops to that point, the Whisperer can be considered to be directly confronted by District 51. However, the deal with NOG is at least safe for the whisperer while in the main department. I don't worry about myself, but the counterattack that joined the enemy was swift enough, and among the people who had already set off, Zuo Chuan was probably the only one who could return safely.
Whether they can grasp the opportunity and withdraw in time is the key to their operation. In order to give them a chance that they would not die, I had to strike again at a little in the evening.
"Twenty minutes." John Bull suddenly said, "If you decide, then it's best to wait twenty minutes, it's the best time." "What she said was naturally the timing of my joining the battlefield. Still, I'm a little curious about how she came up with this relatively precise number. What the mystery of John the Bull is, I haven't really figured it out until now.
Even so, I decided to trust John Bull's judgment. We're not enemies yet, and while we're angry with Area 51, losing John Bull as a buffer zone for NOG will make the Whisperer's situation even more passive. Nowadays, the situation is changing, and the mystery of the battle will become more and more mysterious, these are things that I can't escape, and it would be best not to detonate that kind of high-intensity battle in the city where the whisperer is. My concern for the Cult of Doomsday Shinrikyo led me to decide to accept John Bull's deal, and this decision triggered Tomie's departure, which in turn hinted at the imminent arrival of a mystery similar to Tomie's. And in the subsequent actions, he encountered a series of events involving a huge black scene.
This qiē gives me a strong sense of immediacy.
I remember very well the characteristics of the events that I encountered in the past Doomsday Illusion before I was killed by the final weapon. At this time, the sense of immediacy that arose in my heart brought a strong premonition that this attack on the stronghold of the "crew" was a precursor to being attacked.
Compared to the enemy of the "Tomie" level, what is the threat of Area 51?
On the way to the established target base, I turned on the chain judgment with all my might, centered on the target base, and relied on the speed sweep to generate high speed, and reconnoitred the range of the surrounding area within a radius of 200 meters.
This place looks deserted, even if you stand on the street, you don't feel watched, but there is always a strange feeling, as if you have become a turtle in an urn. I don't know if Gregoria felt that way when she was investigating, but her intelligence was pretty accurate in marking the location. I don't think Gregoria has the ability to go deep into such a strange place without the enemy noticing, so she wouldn't be surprised if she encountered an unexpected strong enemy when attacking.
I've tried to hide myself and wait for twenty minutes to pass. From time to time, there are faces of black smoke roaming the streets and alleys, they are not always the appearance of a human face, they are in the form of smoke, like clouds blown by a strong wind, changing shape from time to time, and each shape has the characteristics of a very obvious common animal. However, even if it takes the form of a centipede, its behavior pattern is not that of a centipede. And each of these smoky faces emits extremely strong negative emotions, so it is impossible to see this transformation as "play". As for what exactly is the significance, it is probably only clear to the experts who created the Trojan virus.
There are many differences between the face of black smoke here and the face of black smoke in my impression, and the face of black smoke that Gregoya encountered is also different in details compared to the face of black smoke here. However, because it is a constantly changing cloud of black smoke, it is difficult for me to describe the differences in these details. It's more of a feeling, and as long as you've seen them before, you can rely on your intuition to compare the results.
In this nightmare Las Vegas, long-distance communication is extremely restricted, so once you are separated from a certain distance, you can't know what is going on with the other party. I can't determine the situation of Zuo Chuan and them through the instant battle report, so there is no other way to determine the timing except to wait for twenty minutes.
Twenty minutes later, I began to sweep, following a pre-detected course that had been adjusted to the wanderings of the black smoke face. This is the production base of the black smoke face, and I am quite stressed in the face of the black smoke face that may increase at any time without destroying their production equipment as quickly as possible. This thing is quite mysterious, and even if I am in a fast state, it has a certain ability to fight back. If you are besieged, you will not die, but you will be in a hurry.
If you can't ensure that you have the advantage at all times, the situation will deteriorate like an avalanche if you are attacked by a stronger enemy. (To be continued......)
