"So, may I ask what the chairman wants to talk to me about? Do you want me to pay any conditions? But I don't have anything valuable except the two taels of meat on my body."
Li Mo said easily. His courage was much higher than when he first entered Academy City. It was not because of the confidence brought by the ability of the four tails.
It's the system. Of course, Li Mo has also thought about what to do if the system fails.
People should always look at the bright side. Even if something like that happens, the worst that can happen is just lying down.
"This is the first time we meet, right? Li Mo."
"Of course, my dear chairman."
"I called you here this time to answer your questions. If you have any questions about this city, you can ask me." Aleister's voice came out.
Li Mo said, "Wouldn't it be better to leave this matter to Mu Yuannaogan?"
"No, you are special. You are the second magician in the world to obtain the correct answer to the Book of Law. In many ways, you are worth this conversation between you and me."
Aleister said: "Every human being has his or her own purpose. No matter if they are ordinary people, people with special abilities, or even magicians, they cannot escape this. Li Mo, what is your purpose? Many times, you take one step at a time and are full of confusion about the future."
Li Mo looked up at Aleister and fell into thought...
The purpose of my magic name is to remind myself not to forget Gao Yanskaya. I have been connected with her in the past, so I need a way to travel through the world independently, but I have not found a way so far.
"Aleister. Are you really cursed by the world? You will fail no matter what, and your wish will not come true, right?"
"If I look back on my past, I am exactly like this."
Li Mo said: "I still say that, you can look forward to my performance when I leave. Maybe, I will give you a little surprise."
Aleister said, "In that case, I will not ask any more questions. I just hope that you will not easily block the hovering loop in the future."
"No problem, my dear chairman."
"Tomorrow, I will hold a meeting of the directors..." Aleister and Li silently changed the topic and focused on the identity of the director.
Aleister told a lot of things in bits and pieces.
The conversation ended like this, and with permission, Li Mo used space movement magic to move out of the building.
With Li Mo's departure, the space did not fall into silence.
"It's confirmed. He knows my past, even what happened during the Golden Dawn." Aleister spoke, as if communicating with the existence in the void.
Edwards' voice sounded: "He seems to be somewhat conscious. Could he be an observer? Has he been observing the world from some corner from the past to the present?"
The Golden Dawn of the past has long since fallen, and all the past events are buried in the dust of history. Most people have no idea what happened in the past...
He seemed to know it all.
"When he said that, I could feel a subtle pity."
"That proves he's on your side, doesn't it? Aleister?"
"The level of vigilance against him can be lowered. Besides, I am more concerned about his mention of 'leaving'."
"I am also very curious about this. Where can a person who suddenly appears in this world go back to?"
Edwards, so said.
……
Outside the building, Li Mo patted the stunned Yumi Yuuki and said, "It's time to go."
"Oh, is this the end?"
“It has passed the review.”
Aleister was testing himself, but it seemed that the result was satisfactory to him.
Li Mo's answer showed that he had no hostile thoughts, and his explanation of the information was to tell the other party that he knew everything.
A magician who knows the plan and doesn't sabotage it is basically harmless.
Next, we need to prepare for tomorrow’s board meeting.
Chapter 353: One-sided Communication
The General Council is the authority in charge of Academy City. Each council member has his own area of responsibility, for example, Shiogishi was previously in charge of the sale of arms to the outside world in Academy City.
In other words, an arms dealer.
"Is the arms trade so hot? How could this group of people divide up all the profits so quickly? Are they too quick to act? Are these people born in the Year of the Dog? Do they like to eat hot food so much?"
Mr. Li was pointing and nagging.
Kihara Brainstem: #!
"Did you mean it?"
"Sorry, sorry, I forgot about the brain stem and you really are a dog. Sometimes I just think of you as a human brain transplanted into a dog's body."
Kihara Brainstem is a dog whose brain has been developed, but his intelligence is no less than that of humans.
"No, you did it on purpose."
"Fuck, Brain Dry, don't pour the coffee on me."
"You have magic anyway."
Magic is something that is almost omnipotent. It can simplify the process of many things and get the result directly at the beginning.
For example, cleaning clothes.
Watching Mr. Li messily cleaning the coffee off himself, Mu Yuan retracted his mechanical hand and said, "You're not angry about this?"
The person who killed Shiogi was Li Mo, and Aleister also gave him the status of director. In a sense, he is Shiogi's successor, so the interests that originally belonged to Shiogi belong to him.
——Of course, the directors are not people who follow the rules... At least, except for a few people on the ship, the others are not good people. If there is a cake in front of you, you have to take action no matter what.
Just like a jackal, its favorite thing to do is to eat other people's corpses.
Li Mo shrugged: "Why should I care? Arms trade can accumulate a lot of wealth. But I don't need it. Ah, Mu Yuannao you bastard, what is this manuscript, why does it look so annoying. It's so gibberish, I remember it was just a private meeting between directors, right? It's not a public speech."
He came to Kihara Naogan for today's board meeting. This was his first appearance. Then Kihara Naogan gave him a manuscript and told him to follow it.
The content is probably about self-defense. After 9.30, you can find that the defense of Academy City is like a leaky pot.
Kihara said, "It seems that you really don't care about those interests. You should understand what this manuscript represents."
"Join their rules? Come on, I got special permission from the chairman, why should I do that? The time is almost up, I won't read the script. Just express yourself freely."
Li Mo: "Anyway, I'm reading in the library, so I don't care so much."
Kihara knew what Li Mo was doing. He was holding a tablet in his hand and reading the information in it in a way that he couldn't understand. The foundation of the information age is based on electronic products. To put it bluntly, the various information in it is just "0 and 1". If someone has the ability to control the electrical system, he can directly use his brain to invade the library.
What people with special abilities can do, magic can also do.
Kihara knows the possibilities of magic. After all, the existence of a demon who can destroy and rebuild the world with just a thought proves the limit of magic, doesn't it?
"It's time. I need to prepare for the meeting. Kihara Brainstem, are you going to leave the country?"
"I'd better forget it. I don't know what you're going to do, but I remind you that he won't speak."
"No problem, no problem. It's OK even if you don't say anything."
He, refers to Aleister.
Kihara Naogan: "I'm going out now. Next, it's your personal performance."
Li Mo looked at the time.
In one night, I figured out how to use magic to read the library information. In fact, this magic can be taken a step further. Since imitating the Son of God can make one a "saint", then if one imitates people with super powers, can one obtain the corresponding power?
This thought was hidden in my heart. The world of magic is not only about the "idol theory", but it is undoubtedly the easiest theory to get started with.
What is your core purpose?
Create a safe environment for Fremea, or complete the situation of Aoki Jung.
This meeting...was arranged by Aleister.
The storm in my mind began to swirl.
Then, the time came.
Li Mo entered the online conference room.
As the protagonist of this meeting, Li Mo smiled and said, "Good morning, everyone."
In fact, Aleister only gave him the authority of a director, nothing else. But it did not prevent Li Mo from talking freely here.
He talked about September 30th. That was the day when the Front Wind attacked Academy City. It was the biggest attack Academy City had ever suffered. Even three of the directors were lost.
Li Mo changed the topic and talked about the Anbu War some time ago. The backlash of the dark side of Academy City killed two more directors.
From the beginning till now, he has been speaking in a straightforward manner. Although his tone is rich, it gives people a cold feeling.
"Everyone, don't you think that Academy City's security is too weak? In this special period, what would happen if a single-soldier assault occurred again?"
Li Mo spoke in a low voice, which sounded cold but particularly encouraging.
Even though it has been reproduced electronically, the magic inside is real.
No one refuted.
No one cares.
Now that we are entering a state of war, strengthening security seems to be the right choice.
"Finally, I want to remind you that this is a world where people who can stand up to the army on their own exist."
It seems that this new director is harmless. He doesn't care about the general interests at all, but focuses on other things?
Bei Ji Jimin looked at the interrupted meeting, his mind full of the words of the new director. As for the subsequent conversation, it was just nonsense.
The focus was only on the new director. The war far away in Russia was not worth mentioning to the directors of Academy City.
"What do you think his purpose is?"
The old man asked his think tank.
Through the electronic terminal, he can contact high school girls who are far away.
"Old man, you are really confused. Don't you realize that in the entire meeting record, none of you communicated with him. Is this a meeting? No, this is not a meeting at all. It is just his unilateral notification.
——My implication for strengthening Academy City’s security is that I am very dissatisfied with the current state of Academy City.”
