Chapter 283: Truth and Lies
By the time I left the fire, it was close to the early morning of the next day. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The rising sun was casting a lazy red on the cold dawn, and the air was filled with the humidity of the morning mist, cool but clear to the heart.
The fire in the Tower Tower was finally extinguished by the efforts of the firefighters all night, and the collapsed giant and the sloping Faslot Building next to it snuggled together like two crumbling lovers.
"Vice Mayor Li. β
An internal phone call came in out of the blue.
"Hello, Mayor Rhodes. Wang Ye responded politely.
"I have to admit that you did a good job. Mayor Rhodes said on the phone: "Last night's Tianta Tower fire was supposed to be a safety accident, but under your heroic and fearless rush into the fire, the Wittwood Provincial Department of Safety not only greatly weakened the accountability process, but also sent a red-headed document to our city leadership team to praise." However, the letter also made specific requirements for the next steps, including the aftermath of the Tianta Tower and the Fesslot Building. β
"Aftermath?"
"About the demolition work. Mayor Rhodes continued: "Both towers are now collapsing at different angles and are barely supported by the effect of the 'fortified wall' inscriptions. However, according to the BCA's calculations, this support can only last for about three days, and after three days, there is a risk of secondary collapse of the upper floors of both buildings, so the safe demolition of both buildings must be completed within three days. β
"3 days?" Wang Ye was stunned: "The steel bars of the stairs of these two buildings are completely wrapped in the 'strong wall' inscriptions, if you want to demolish them safely, you first need to ask a large number of magicians to deconstruct the 'strong wall' inscriptions one by one, and then use the conventional blasting procedure to complete the demolition, this process will take at least 5 days." β
"The requirements of the provincial department must be fulfilled, and we are not in a position to explain the reasons to them. Mayor Rhodes said bitterly, "You'll have a way, right?"
"There is a way. Wang Ye Huiran smiled and said: "But we need the full cooperation of the police in the central district." β
"What's the law?" asked Mayor Rhodes.
"Immediately start action today to move all the residents within a 5-kilometer radius of the two buildings to the periphery. Wang Ye said, "Is it okay?"
"Yes, yes, but why should you do that?" said Mayor Rhodes.
"Avoid harming the innocent. Wang Ye replied with a smile, then hung up the phone directly and got into his own car.
"You're back, Lord Yata. The driver turned his head and showed a lovely face and blue hair.
Yes, for the convenience of the conversation, Wang Ye made a special trip to change the driver.
"What do you think of Huo Jun's words?" Elise sat in the back seat and asked, "Do you believe what he said about the so-called method of mutual victory?"
"Did you hear it all?" Wang Ye exclaimed.
"I turned out to be a tester who had been enhanced to 2.0. Elise laughed.
"Okay. Wang Ye smiled bitterly and said: "How to say it, I don't know if the army itself is convinced of this method, but in my opinion, this method will definitely not work." β
"Why?" asked Elise.
"Because the amount of information in the hands is different. Wang Ye said in a deep voice: "I think Huo Jun and them, even including you, always think that the capital city is under the operation of a certain system, right? The system formulates the rules and implements the rules, thus constituting each trial itself. You have always thought so about the system of adjudicating the winners and losers of trials and giving predetermined rewards and punishments according to the strict procedures, right?"
"That's what most people think, right?" Elise nodded.
"What if I told you that there is such a thing as a 'Grim Reaper' in this world?" Wang Ye began.
Somehow, it seemed that Rem's steering wheel was crooked, and the car suddenly shook violently, and then returned to normal.
"Death?" Elise's eyes widened, "Does that really exist?"
"Not only did it exist, but it also talked to me. Wang Ye smiled bitterly and said: "In every sub-world we have experienced, there is a 'Grim Reaper' who controls the operation of that world, and they are like sub-world administrators, managing the balance of the sub-worlds, and also serving as the referee of trials. β
"I think ......" Wang Ye narrowed his eyes slightly: "There may not be many trialists who have seen the Grim Reaper, and even the entire primary city may only have a few people who have seen it." Therefore, it is reasonable for ordinary people to look at the capital city from the perspective of looking at the program system. Naturally, there will be people like the army who will self-righteously want to exploit the loopholes in the system. What they don't know, however, is that the system is indeed running correctly, but in addition to the system itself, there are also these self-aware administrators. The idea of five people winning together is just a childish joke in the eyes of the Grim Reaper. β
"And what he said about 'Gemini'?"
"Hearsay. Wang Ye smiled bitterly and said, "But no matter what, his idea has successfully brought these weak trialists together and formed a powerful force, which is a rare fortune." If nothing else, it is a good idea to use this organization to eliminate other enemies little by little, and then deal with the people in the organization. β
"Accidents, will there be accidents as it stands?"
"The human heart is unpredictable, we can never be sure what is going on in a person's heart, even the eye of death with the ability to read minds, after all, cannot see through people's hearts. Wang Ye said in a deep voice.
The car drove all the way through the deserted streets in the early morning under the reflection of the morning sun. This time, Wang Ye did not return to the office building, but drove all the way in the direction of the church.
On the way back, Wang Ye was slightly tired and drowsy, but just as he was about to fall asleep, an internal phone call suddenly came in.
"Oh hell, this is who called early in the morning. Wang Ye complained and picked up the phone, but heard a woman's voice on the other side.
"Looks like I'm bothering you, Mayor Lee. β
It's Lorelei of the Magic Society.
"You guessed it, I'm sleeping. Wang Ye said lazily: "But I don't mind being disturbed by beautiful women, what's the matter?"
"Just now, the Magic Association has preliminarily approved the cooperation proposal you sent us, but regarding the battle that took place in the Faslot Mansion last night, the Association would like you to provide more detailed information, through the footage observed by the demons, the Association conducted a facial recognition comparison, we suspect that the two sides of the battle that appeared at the scene at that time also included the mayor himself, if this is the case, your information may be of vital value to the study of 'sΓ©ance'. If you are willing to cooperate, we will agree to provide you with a 24-hour personal guard for a high-level combat magician mentioned in the contract. β
"It's not impossible to want to know the information, then it depends on the level of the guards you provide, a group of minions of the eldest son (Count) and the last (Frame) rank don't mean anything to me, and the infantry under my command is better than them. Wang Ye said.
"And what level of guard do you want?" asked Lorelei.
"Grand Magi. Wang Ye replied directly.
(Note: The ranking of the Magic Association from high to low is: Crown Grand, Color Brand, Pawn Pride, Sacrifice Fes, Opening Cause, Eldest Count, and Last. οΌ
"That can't be. Lorelei immediately shouted: "Now there is only one magician who has clearly reached the crown in the entire Magic Association, and that adult is still on a mission outside, you better change your request, everything else is okay." β
"Is that true?" asked Wang Ye with a smile.
Lorelei hesitated, but replied, "Seriously." β
"That's easy. Wang Ye smiled and said, "I will be suppressed at the 'bottom of the bridge' of the Magic Association's Clock Tower, those magicians who are called 'Seal Designation'. β
As soon as these words came out, the other end of the phone was stunned.
"Are you crazy!?" it took a long time for Lorelei to speak, "Those are all hellish guys." β
"That's for the best. Wang Ye smiled and said, "The place where they are about to come is hell. Crown Demon Master, or Seal Designator, choose one of the two, you can decide for yourself. β
