I have an all-knowing mirror

Chapter 76 The Plans Made Months Ago
"After a month of continuous analysis and dissection by the think tank."

The final conclusion should be that it was well-intentioned.

The refined middle-aged man addressed Su Yuan as "that person".

"bona fide?"

Director Zhou looked thoughtful.

If someone else got this result, they would certainly not understand it.

bona fide?

The other party blatantly came to our door to threaten us; how could they possibly be acting in good faith?

However, this conclusion was reached by a think tank after spending a great deal of time and effort analyzing the data.

Director Zhou naturally considered it carefully.

"Yes, it's a good intention."

The refined middle-aged man nodded: "All of that person's actions were merely verbal."

"No concrete action has been taken."

"nor did they continue to make numerous demands."

The refined middle-aged man paused briefly.

continued:

"Furthermore, the batch of weapons that the other side asked us to produce, after analysis, is very likely to be custom-made based on the current industrial foundation."

"The difficulty and demand for manufacturing weapons are still within our capacity."

The refined-looking middle-aged man looked at Director Zhou and said.

If we only consider efficiency and results...

Even if Su Yuan doubled the number of weapons manufactured, or halved the completion time, it would still be impossible.

The Xia Kingdom could also accomplish this.

However, there will be a price to pay.

From this perspective alone, that person's attitude was not malicious.
You see, once Su Yuan has his trump card, which is practically his lifeline, they would grit their teeth and do whatever he asked, no matter how difficult it was.

"So that's it."

Director Zhou looked slightly enlightened.

The think tank's analysis was based on ample data.

For example, what about the upper limit of industrial infrastructure capacity? And then combine it with the weapon blueprints given by Su Yuan.

This will allow us to draw more conclusions.

And that person

This isn't the first time they've appeared.

"That's what the refined middle-aged man said."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Director Zhou immediately perked up.

The most desperate and helpless feeling he had experienced over the past month was that he had absolutely no information about Su Yuan.

but now?

We actually discovered other traces left by Su Yuan?

Several months ago.

"The 'cyber ghost' incident occurred in the South China Sea."

The refined-looking middle-aged man spoke again.

"The ghost of the internet."

Director Zhou immediately remembered.

He was deeply impressed by this incident; the security bureau's network on the South Island was silently compromised and taken over without any response from the firewall.

No trace was found afterwards.

This incident caused quite a stir at the time.

Even he was alarmed and asked a few more questions.

"you mean"

Director Zhou's expression shifted slightly.

"The methods used by the South China Sea Island Security Bureau to intrude into and take over the network at that time were very similar to the network intrusion and takeover phenomenon in Shanghai a month earlier."

"Think Tank Speculation"

"These were all made by the same person."

"That's what the refined middle-aged man said."

Upon hearing this, Director Zhou immediately recalled numerous details about the 'cyber ghost' incident. Although he knew nothing about the person behind the 'cyber ghost' incident, subsequent analysis revealed that the person behind it had acted on the side of Xia Guo through the internet.

This is also the main reason why Xia Guo's think tank judged that Su Yuan had goodwill towards Xia Guo.

Furthermore, another key point is that the person behind the scenes is not from the Truth Society.

At that time, the person behind the scenes, with the help of powerful figures from the Xia Kingdom, was dealing with assassins from the Truth Society.

"That's good. That's good."

Director Zhou breathed a huge sigh of relief.

For the past month, Director Zhou's biggest worry has been what connection Su Yuan has with the Truth Society.

After all, the weapon blueprints that Su Yuan provided demonstrated technology far surpassing that of Earth, which was remarkably similar to the Truth Society.

However, it now seems that Su Yuan and the Truth Society are not on the same side, and may even be on opposite sides.

"Therefore, the think tank's final advice was to cooperate with all of that person's requests as much as possible."

"That's what the refined middle-aged man said."

They were facing an unknown being, whose origins and strength were unknown, who held the greatest power in their hands, and who still harbored goodwill towards the Xia Kingdom.

Naturally, the choice to perish together with the enemy is not an option.

"I see."

Director Zhou nodded.

What Xia Guo's think tank and Director Zhou didn't know was—

The analysis they conducted, which involved a great deal of time and effort, led to their conclusions.

It was entirely due to Su Yuan's promotion and guidance.

Several months ago, Su Yuan took over the security bureau's network in the South China Sea.

Besides taking Qiao Mingyuan away, they also wanted to leave clues.

So that the Xia Kingdom's think tank might discover this today, leading to the association and the conclusion that Su Yuan harbors goodwill towards the Xia Kingdom.

How can we get the Xia Kingdom to focus wholeheartedly on doing things for us?
Focus on manufacturing weapons?
Of course, one cannot rely solely on intimidating the other party by controlling their vitals; one must also demonstrate one's goodwill.

This is the essence of using both kindness and severity.

Goodwill isn't something you can simply have just because you have it.

For example, Su Yuan directly told Director Zhou, "I have no ill intentions towards you. Work well for me, and you will receive many benefits in the future."

This is just empty promises.

Director Zhou is unlikely to believe it; on the contrary, he will become even more fearful and uneasy.

The best approach would be to let Director Zhou and others investigate on their own, and deduce the conclusion Su Yuan wanted from the clues he deliberately left behind.

Director Zhou will believe this conclusion unconditionally.

Shanghai, Laboratory No. 7.

Three hours later, Su Yuan opened his eyes, ending his cultivation session.

"call!"

Feeling his strength increase once again, Su Yuan smiled.

He has now completed one-eighth of the journey at the Level 3 life form stage, and only needs another seven months to advance to the Level 4 life form level.

"Unfortunately, the human body has its limits and cannot withstand continuous cultivation."

Su Yuan shook his head slightly.

This is why he needs to wait several days between each training session.

The human body needs time to slowly adapt to increased strength.

If one forces oneself to cultivate continuously without allowing several days for adaptation, the final result will be death due to the collapse of one's genes.

Compared to those terrifying life forms that are inherently powerful in the depths of the universe.

The human body is ultimately too weak.

Even evolution is done with such care; energy absorption must be done according to the body's limits.

Of course, the human body is physically weak, but its potential is incredibly vast.

As Su Yuan pondered, a thought stirred within him.

A complex mark composed entirely of mental power appeared before them.

It is the imprint of thought.

The Mind Steel Seal that Su Yuan has mastered consists of thirty-six sub-seals.

To control a particular life form, one only needs to integrate the child seal into the depths of the other's soul.

"The sacred method of 'Thought Imprint' has been mastered; it's time to take action against the truth."

Su Yuan put away the mental imprint, looked up into the distance, his gaze calm.
