Chapter 176: Agreement
The city of Rome is the largest city in the European Federation, and there are many satellite cities around the city. Some of these satellite cities have simply become gathering places for the wealthy, and living in those high-end neighborhoods is the lifelong dream of many white-collar workers.
Fifty miles southeast of the city, there is an area with a pleasant climate. The environment here is very good, there are more than a dozen large and small lakes, the forest is the manor of the rich, and one of the old castles, Celtic, who is 72 years old this year, lives here......
"Didn't you find the sender's address?"
After listening to the report of his subordinates, Celtic asked calmly again.
"I'm sorry, we've done our best, the other party's means are very clever, and we can't find any traces. ”
"Okay, let your men continue to investigate, but be careful to keep it secret. ”
The gray-haired Celtic is a slow-moving old man on the outside, and his gray-haired appearance makes him look no different from an ordinary old man, but this old body wields great power.
The cataclysm of 500 years ago made many famous families history, and the luck of the Celtic family was that they seized the opportunity to change their strategy in time, stood on the right side, and gradually became one of the largest families in the European Union from a small family.
The Tang Empire is the checks and balances of imperial power, parliament and government, although the power of the consortium is strong, it is suppressed, while the European Federation is the big consortium that controls the lifeblood of the country and can even manipulate the government.
As the head of the family, Celtic has undergone countless changes in the past forty years, and he has long been accustomed to manipulating behind the scenes, and ordinary people and politicians may not know about his existence. But the people at the top mentioned him. It is often described as a treacherous fox.
Peaceful life. And so on, until one day, in his private e-mail, there was an extra greeting email, headed by his full name, and the content was to seek cooperation in an equal tone.
"Mr. Celtic, the transformation of the Tang Empire is taking place, and the transformation of the whole world has just begun. Five hundred years ago, your family made the right choice. So now? Here is Mr. Wu Yuan's kindness, would you like to be his ally?"
In the email, there was also an address, where the men found a box and delivered it to Celtic as quickly as possible.
Inside is a Buddha bead, a Buddha bead condensed by Wu Yuan, a six-character mantra!
High-level people have seen the appearance of the magic bead, and everyone wants to carry this thing with them.
After receiving the letter, Celtic replied very enthusiastically, he said. If Wu Yuan wants to defect to the European Federation, he and his consortium. will meet Wu Yuan's requirements with the most generous conditions. The entire European Federation will become Wu Yuan's most solid backstage, and there will be no nonsense like the Tang Empire.
Celtic thought that Wu Yuan was just trying to use foreign forces to fight against some people at home, but what happened the next day left him dumbfounded.
Wu Yuan actually went on a killing spree in the Tang Empire, killing the speaker, ministers and a large number of media people in a row!
What does Wu Yuan want to do? This kind of behavior of his should not be done at all!
If it is Celtic who has mastered the six-character mantra, a method that can cure diseases and delay aging, he should take his time. After such a situation is managed, he will be the top figure in the Tang Empire within ten years.
But Wu Yuan didn't wait, instead, he directly overturned the table.
Write back to that mailbox again, asking Wu Yuan what he wants and what he is going to do.
The reply was quick and brief.
"The birth of a new world is accompanied by the collapse of the old world, the weak pray for fate, and the strong sit in the bank to change the rules. Wu Yuan is about to visit the European Federation, Mr. Celtic, please veto any issue of nuclear strikes in your country, and if you can stop the covering attack of bombers and self-propelled artillery, Mr. Wu is grateful.
There are some things that are bad for the European Federation, but for you, they are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. There is only one chance, please don't miss it, Mr. Celtic, there are several more candidates like you. ”
This endless email made Celtic frown, and soon after, Wu Yuan came to the European Federation and destroyed the intelligence building.
"Opportunity ......"
Celt sighed leisurely, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the table.
Mr. Celt was well aware of the meaning of opportunity in the letter. Every time there is an economic crisis, small and medium-sized enterprises go bankrupt, individuals are displaced, and homeless, and at this time, it will be reported on TV how many billions of dollars the big conglomerates have lost.
Yes, big conglomerates also have losses, but they can get more benefits in this kind of catastrophe, even if they don't get it on weekdays, because they are sitting in the bank.
In the ancient Tang Empire, when the drought led to a thousand miles of harvest, the landlord's family made more money than in the past, and at the same time, they could also buy fields that could not be sold in the past, which is the meaning of opportunity.
But...... This opportunity made Celtic a little unliked.
He likes to sit in the bank, but that doesn't mean that someone can stand behind him, look at him with a weapon in hand, and be ready to cut down with a knife.
But if he doesn't accept it, what can he do? Sometimes, the most humiliating condition is also what many people dream of, and if he refuses, Wu Yuan can choose someone else. The prisoner's dilemma is well known to everyone, and it is happening to him right now.
The bedroom lights flickered a few times, then went off, and then a second later, the ceiling lights came back on.
"Ali, what's going on?"
"Master, there is a power outage in the city of Rome because Wu Yuan attacked the power supply. The outage has triggered fluctuations throughout the grid at the same time, and we have switched to another line with generators on standby. ”
"Okay. ”
Nodding, Celtic stood up and stepped onto the balcony.
The night sky in the distance was like black velvet, who would have thought that the city of Rome would be a different scene? Today Wu Yuan attacked the power station, and tomorrow the newspapers will absolutely be overwhelmingly condemning him, and the question is, if the condemnation is useful, what do you want the army and soldiers to do?
First, before the start of the Second World War, the people were looking forward to occupying the land of other countries, cheering for the soldiers, and proud of the war.
Then, the bloody war calmed everyone down, and at the end of the war, all the soldiers did not want to fight anymore.
Even if so many people died, even if there were countless reasons why the war should be fought, the people refused to fight, and then peace came.
Wu Yuan...... In fact, even if there is no Wu Yuan, there will still be Zhao Yuan and Li Yuan...... There will always be people who will do something wrong with their strength and then cause heavy losses.
In the heroes of the movies and manga, Ultraman defeats the monster, and it seems that the beauty is restored again, but if the monster really comes out a few times, then the pattern of the world is completely different.
That idiot will live in the city of Tokyo, waiting to become cannon fodder again and again?
Wu Yuan, and you, what are you going to do in the city of Rome?
=============
Twenty minutes later.
"Are all the people inside coming out?"
Wu Yuan shouted loudly, and his internal force made his voice clear enough for people within a radius of hundreds of meters to hear it clearly.
A large group of uniformed people ran out of the ten-story building, and no one went to catch Wu Yuan, because this humanoid monster was dismantling the load-bearing pillars and load-bearing walls with his bare hands.
One palm, two palms...... Cracks appeared in the reinforced concrete building, and the roaring sound made everyone tremble, and everyone ran frantically towards the outside of the tall building, and no one knew when the tall building would collapse.
No, some people know, at least Wu Yuan knows - Wu Zetiantong guò scientific calculation sued him.
After the building was destroyed with six load-bearing columns and load-bearing walls in three locations, the remaining load-bearing parts could only last for fifteen minutes, and then the building would collapse with a bang.
At the same time as the building collapsed, the servers responsible for distributing electricity were no longer there, and this was the second power station, which was part of the power hub, and if there was a problem here, half of the city of Rome would be plunged into darkness.
Very good, very good, six minutes, just six minutes, to solve this qiē.
As for the city of Rome, they sent people to protect other distribution stations...... Wu Yuan came to the side of the road, and with a flick of his finger, a coin shot at the transformer on the telephone pole. The coin infused with internal force pierced through the outer shell of the transformer like a sniper bullet, and then rushed into it, and then, a flash of sparks, plunged the entire street into darkness.
There were a total of 18,000 telephone poles in the entire city of Rome, and Wu Yuan only needed to destroy forty of them to cause an irreparable blackout. Underground pipes, gas pipes, and water pipes, these things were all sent to Wu Yuan's memory in a steady stream through Wu Zetian.
Sun Wukong got into the belly of the Iron Fan Princess, there are countless places that can be tossed, in this city, as long as no nuclear weapons are used, no one can catch him, and even if nuclear weapons are used, what is the use?
The scary thing is the center of the nuclear explosion, the aftermath is a fatal wound for ordinary people, for him, it doesn't matter. The six-character mantra allowed him to recover from his injuries, and then he could continue to do it.
By the way, Zetian also guaranteed with certainty that there would be no nuclear attack, and Wu Yuan certainly believed this.
Ninety-nine percent of those big people will not drop nuclear bombs in big cities, and as for one percent, who doesn't take a little risk? Maybe there will be a meteorite hitting the earth tomorrow, and there is no need to consider the small chance.
Of course, what he didn't know was that Wu Zetian had already erased that one percent chance, and Celtic had already decided to join forces with Wu Yuan.
A state is a state, and a consortium is a consortium, and this is clearly distinguished by Celtic. The meaning of the state is to protect the consortium, and when the two conflict, or have to abandon the same, the Celts naturally choose their own family.
When there is a life-and-death fight between two countries, trade often does not stop, and sometimes it is even hotter. When the country suffers losses, the consortium will happily make money.
Joining forces with Wu Yuan, no, joining forces with Wu Yuan and the people behind him, Celtic has already made a decision. (To be continued......)
