Chapter 250 Fishing in troubled waters
Chapter 250 Fishing in troubled waters
“I think this might be an opportunity.”
Minghui said.
"First, if the Sun-Moon Empire really imprisoned the contestants from the three former empires, this would be tantamount to completely offending the forces behind these people. No matter what decision they make on the surface, they will definitely be unhappy in secret. In this way, once the war breaks out, they can just make a little publicity and accuse the Sun-Moon Empire of such despicable behavior."
"You know, the people of the original three empires originally rejected the Sun-Moon Empire."
Yan Shaozhe reacted immediately and said excitedly, "The original three empires will surely be united and their morale will be greatly boosted!"
"The forces that originally wanted to wait and see will also choose to join the resistance formation. After all, the Sun-Moon Empire dared to go against the rules and use the Soul Master Competition, a continental event, to imprison other forces. Who knows if they will break the rules and deal with us one day."
Minghui nodded slightly, "This is also the reason why few people in history dare to break the underlying rules and set bad precedents."
In the past, people like Sima Zhao who killed the emperor in the street and Lu Meng who crossed the river in white clothes, etc., basically had no good ending when they did such things that broke the unspoken rules. It would either backfire on themselves directly or on their descendants. Sooner or later, they would be liquidated under the banner of legitimacy.
"In short, this matter can be used to advantage in subsequent wars," he continued.
"It will also be beneficial to me." Xuan Zi looked at Ming Hui and said thoughtfully: "Xiao Hui, if we can rescue these people in time, we will not only gain the favor of these forces, but also gain a good reputation if the news spreads."
"This will definitely be of great benefit to your subsequent promotion of the soul system."
It’s easy to talk about a debt of favor, isn’t it?
"I do have this idea." Minghui admitted openly, and then said, "However, if the academy participates, it can also enhance the reputation of the academy, right?"
"Besides, isn't it a good thing for the academy if the soul system is promoted smoothly?"
"I didn't say it was a bad thing!" Xuan Zi said hurriedly.
"It's not a good idea for us to do this, right?" Xian Lin'er hesitated, "I always feel that this is a bit unfair."
"Not fair!" Xuan Zi sneered, "Xiao Lin, you don't think that all the participating forces are good people, do you? If they are really good people, why haven't we heard of them making any efforts to clean up the evil spirit masters in recent years? They didn't even provide any information when the Body Sect and our academy were fighting against the evil spirit masters outside. In the past, it was basically the officials of the three empires who discovered it and then came to the academy to submit the task."
"Oh, it's none of your business. In my opinion, they need to feel pain themselves before they will really take it seriously."
"Otherwise, when the war really starts, we will either wait and see or surrender to the enemy!"
"I think so too!" Yan Shaozhe followed up, "In order to avoid this situation, we might as well take this opportunity to give them a warning."
"In the face of a great war, we need to find a way to unite everyone."
"Besides, this is the news that Arthas risked his life to get. He is not familiar with them, so why should he pass the news to them? If there are people among these people who are close to him or even infiltrated by the Sun-Moon Empire, then wouldn't Arthas be taking the risk in vain?"
"As long as they are rescued in time, there won't be any problem." Qian Duoduo tried to smooth things over. "Besides, even if they are taken as hostages, unless there are special circumstances, the Sun Moon Empire will not do anything to the captured people."
"That's true." Xian Lin'er nodded.
Minghui would rather die than let his friends die. In fact, he doesn't want to be a good guy.
Not familiar, really not familiar!
Yan Shaozhe didn't want to dwell on this matter, and continued, "Xiaohui, you just mentioned the first point, what about the second point."
"Of course they are fishing in troubled waters." Minghui said without hesitation, "Although the Sun-Moon Empire has colluded with the evil soul master organization Holy Spirit Church, this kind of thing cannot be exposed in public. Therefore, there should be no people from the Holy Spirit Church among those who participated in the capture. Otherwise, once this matter is exposed, the Sun-Moon Empire will be cut off from the people. Not only will it be its own country, but it will also cause strong resistance from the people of the original three empires." "In this way, even if the continent is really unified in the future, it will be difficult to manage."
"Of course, it is possible that the Sun-Moon Empire has never thought of releasing the captured people. If this is the case, then the Sun-Moon Empire may indeed hand these people over to the Holy Spirit Church for human experiments. I'm afraid the outcome will not be good."
"As for us, no matter what decision the Sun-Moon Empire makes, we must act quickly."
"The first thing is to save people quickly, and the second is to fish in troubled waters."
"Since the Holy Spirit Church will not participate in this arrest operation, or at least will not participate openly, the combined strength of the participants is not bad."
"So, just in case, I expect that the Sun Moon Empire should draw personnel from Mingde Hall to assist."
Yan Shaozhe's eyes lit up immediately, "You want to take advantage of the situation and sneak into Mingde Hall to steal the soul guide?"
Elder Song thought for a moment and continued, "Almost all the methods of making military soul guides for the Sun-Moon Empire are in the hands of Mingde Hall, and they are also the manufacturer."
"So if nothing unexpected happens, there should be a large number of soul guides used in combat stored in Mingde Hall's warehouse. If all of these soul guides can be taken away, the Sun-Moon Empire will lose the certainty of winning the war."
"This may delay the war for a few more years."
Minghui nodded, "In addition, it can also buy time for the rescue operation. After all, without these people, the Sun-Moon Empire will lose the bargaining chip to clamp down on the major forces of the original three empires. At the same time, the stolen soul guides can also enhance the armaments of the original three empires."
"Oh, you little brat, are you planning to sell it to make some money from the war?" Yan Shaozhe sneered.
Minghui said calmly, "Uncle Yan, you sound like you don't want to?"
"."Yan Shaozhe was speechless. Of course he wanted to.
Xuan Zi ignored him and continued, "So, Xiao Hui, you want the academy to lure out as many Mingde Hall masters as possible, and then have Arthas steal them."
"But if this happens, wouldn't it be easy for Arthas to be exposed? Isn't this a bit risky?"
"Who said to let Arthas steal?" Minghui said calmly, "Have you forgotten my simulated soul skill?"
"From what I have learned from Arthas, many of the soul masters in Mingde Hall rely on external forces to cultivate, so their mental strength is extremely poor. With my current mental strength, if I encounter an ordinary Titled Douluo, even if I stand in front of him, he may not be able to see through me."
"So, I can just pretend to be a warehouse guard and sneak in to do a big cleanup, and then pin the blame on the Holy Spirit Church. I still have the stuff on those evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Church that you killed before."
"As for whether the Sun-Moon Empire believes it or not, it's not important. Even if they suspect the academy, they can't do anything about it, right?"
"Xiaohui, isn't this a bit risky?" Zhang Lexuan was a little worried.
Minghui smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lexuan, have you forgotten that I have a good place to hide?"
Zhang Lexuan naturally understood that he was talking about the plane of the undead, so she didn't dwell on it any more.
Those who were unaware of the situation were confused.
