When Wei Wei turned around and disappeared into the deep night, the smell of blood that filled the entire manor began to gradually dissipate.
The entire city, or in other words, the entire spiritual barrier, gradually began to feel a return to reality. However, those on the first city's defense line did not interfere in any way from beginning to end, but they did not relax every minute or second.
, the top-level personnel of the foundation who had been observing closely, some of them breathed a sigh of relief, and cautiously, as if they were afraid of disturbing something, asked the people around them in a low voice.
Naturally, he was asking about those consortium members.
The black cloaks on those people had all been cut off at the neck level. Originally, their heads had also been cut off, but now they were back on their necks. But the red stitching marks were particularly dazzling.
But they were still talking normally, even expressing their fears normally, and immediately reunited in the underground study and started discussing something.
Therefore, something interesting arises: are they alive or dead?
After all, according to the rules of the Foundation, dead people or supernatural creatures are not allowed to live among the group. At this time, should these people be cleared out or captured for study?
Of course, this is just a joke.
Rules are rules, and most of the time, the rules themselves are a joke.
"First he died, then he lived."
The person next to him who understood clearly smiled softly: "It's just that life or death is just a matter of one thought."
"The lost head has been sewn back, so if he wants to tear off the thread, the dead person will of course die again."
"..."
It may sound bizarre, but when you think about the endless supernatural powers in this world, this little thing Scarlet did doesn't seem to be a great act.
Just a basic exercise.
"So, Scarlet is really smart?"
The people next to me sighed: "He actually used such a simple method to control the power of the consortium?"
"Or perhaps, he is just like what he said after the disaster left, but he is no longer confused..."
Someone sneered in a low voice: "When will a madman who kills people at every turn be willing not to kill people?"
"Of course it's because he has a clearer goal in mind, and keeping these people will be more conducive to him accomplishing this goal!"
"..."
"There are two key points now!"
For the foundation, which has the biggest shortage of smart people, it is actually just the simplest thing to understand that. In another most senior office, the three founders gathered together for a rare occasion. They did not need to deal with it.
Those simple matters were discussed, but after Wei Wei left the manor, there was a long silence. It seemed that both of them had analyzed the matter many times in their hearts.
The silence lasted for a long time before being broken: "We need to find out, first, what Calamity has done. Second, what Scarlet is planning to do."
The people next to him did not question it. The person sitting in the middle seemed to have been thinking for the longest time. When he spoke, he just said softly: "Invite the intelligence agent code-named Spider to come over!"
When the Spider Queen entered this most mysterious office, she felt a little awed in her heart.
But soon, she adjusted her mood and looked at the three old men sitting quietly in front of the red paint desk with a calm gaze.
She knew why these people were looking for her.
Because before this matter started, she had already put forward her own suggestion that the foundation should stop the consortium's plan.
But obviously, the foundation did not adopt it.
And the only thing these three legendary figures could ask about if they were willing to meet him was obviously this matter.
So even when facing such an unfathomable big shot, her attitude seemed a bit arrogant when she spoke: "What's the use of seeing me now?"
There seemed to be some self-mockery on her face: "I thought I was smart enough, understood the key, and reported it, but I didn't expect that the foundation's staff was smarter."
"Last time, you became the biggest fool in the world because you didn't intervene."
"But this time, I managed to refrain from intervening at all, and because of this I took off my hat as the number one fool."
"It's really amazing..."
With a mocking look on her face, she said: "But I don't understand, are you just watching the show, or are you responsible for protecting the world?"
Faced with the ridicule of such a child, the three founders of the foundation actually behaved very generously at this time. Not only were they not angry, one of them even smiled gently.
Said: "I haven't completely taken off the hat of the number one fool."
"In our initial prediction, the consortium should be cleaned up in this matter, but Scarlet obviously did not do so." "Instead, he took this opportunity to control the heads of the consortium, which is beyond us.
Something unexpected."
"I have to admit, the speed of his growth is somewhat astonishing.
"..."
"So, what's surprising to you is that he turned the consortium leaders into talking and moving living dead, but not that he would survive such a situation?"
The spider keenly discovered the key point and immediately asked.
But the three founders obviously didn't answer what she meant, and just looked at her quietly.
This kind of silence always makes people feel uneasy.
Spider finally couldn't help but speak, "Why do you want Scarlet to help you clean up those consortium leaders?"
"Isn't it very simple for the foundation to get rid of these people?"
"..."
"No!"
One of them shook his head and said: "The Foundation has the ability to easily eliminate anyone, but it will never do so."
"Because this will lead to the collapse of order."
"For the Foundation, the existence of order is the most important thing. This is why the Foundation has tolerated the Church of Order before. Their existence is conducive to the stability of order."
"It's just that some things really make us feel helpless."
"The Church of Order, which is supposed to have order as its core, has continued to have problems. It became the first existence to go to Scrap Iron City and activate this terrifying little guy. Later, it was the first to collapse."
"Their stupidity has reached a level that even the Foundation cannot tolerate, so we can only ban them."
"Because of this, the current mental barrier is actually very fragile. We are very worried that some kind of chaos will cause the entire mental barrier to disintegrate."
"..."
Spider listened to the explanations of the three founders with awareness. In fact, she did not expect that she would hear such a serious explanation at first.
