Deceitful Game

Chapter 159 Double Agent Mingpo

In this way, Mingpo's previous plan would have to be completely overturned.

Since killing is meaningless, there is no need for Mingpo to exterminate them all.

Unless he offends Mingpo, killing too many people will only get him into deeper and deeper trouble, distract him from his limited attention, and waste his time and resources.

Since that's the case, let's try to kill fewer people in the future.

Mingpo thought to herself.

Of course, unless you offend me, or your personality is too despicable.

Unless they are trying to attack me and my teammates.

Unless you possess a coveted treasure...

Thinking of this, Mingpo remained silent.

He abandoned the "kindness plan" he had just formulated.

Oh well, whatever.

Kill if you want, don't kill if you don't want to—at least there's no longer a requirement to "kill them all".

Mingbo relaxed a little, leaning back on the sofa with the wine bottle in his hand.

He tried to empty his mind as much as possible.

Mingbo stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.

Today, Mingpo has successfully established connections with both the Chinese Business Association and Divine Comedy, two of the most influential deceitful organizations in the country... The purpose of the Chinese Business Association is very clear.

Although their ideals differed slightly, they all, in general, attempted to use paradoxical techniques to propel the era to the next stage of "modern society."

They are essentially radicals.

The "Divine Comedy" is the opposite.

As a deceitful organization colluding with the government, they appear to have control over surveillance in all public places… and most likely also the personal files and other information of the vast majority of residents. This is probably why the Chinese Business Association specifically reminded Mingpo to avoid appearing in front of cameras as much as possible. This is also likely why "Tianwen" can predict the future.

If a big data system can obtain everyone's personal information and monitor cameras across the country in real time, then it is indeed possible to achieve a certain degree of "prediction" or detect disturbances in the timeline.

[A psycho-passenger? I've seen that too... but I don't think the Sibylla system is wrong. Besides, there are other people actually doing this.]

Shen Yiqi's words echoed in Mingpo's mind.

"Someone else is actually doing this."

Shen Yiqi's statement contains a lot of information.

He was unaware at the time that Mingper was already a conman, so it's unlikely that his words were an act. The word order of his statement carries a certain disdain and condescending arrogance.

He disapproved of this "other person" and placed him under his own ideology, yet he also somewhat agreed with this idea.

This doesn't seem like the attitude towards other "colleagues" in the Chinese Chamber of Commerce; it's more like the kind of strategic underestimation combined with tactical caution towards an enemy. If this refers to "Tianwen" (a Chinese astronomical inquiry project), then everything makes sense.

Through ultimate surveillance capable of detecting timeline disturbances, predicting the past by observing the "present," and precisely pinpointing the location of every spacetime disturbance… this allows them to dispatch imposters back to a designated point in the past to kill those attempting to alter it and correct spacetime. Isn't this the legendary "Time and Space Administration"?

They hoped nothing would change, yet they couldn't stop all the charlatans from using their power. So they took a big step back, exercising only surveillance and intervening only when necessary. Even the rampant Chinese Chamber of Commerce was only barely suppressed, and no direct conflict ever occurred. The Chinese Chamber of Commerce's headquarters was so large, standing there openly, yet no war ever broke out; but the Chinese Chamber of Commerce was clearly wary of Divine Comedy's surveillance—this already demonstrated Divine Comedy's "tacit approval" and "suppression" of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

This is not cowardice.

Rather, it's conservative.

This is precisely the style of the extreme conservatives who do not want any variables outside their control to occur and are adept at compromise and appeasement.

After all, while the official primary partner is Divine Comedy, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce also has national heroes like Professor Zhuang. Professor Zhuang's research can also greatly enhance national strength and may even permanently alter the world order. From the nation's perspective, this kind of "paradoxical technology" is absolutely necessary and acceptable.

It's impossible to say that the state was completely unaware of or did not interfere in this matter.

Professor Zhuang is an academician, and he is also involved in nuclear energy technology research and development.

It's impossible for someone of this caliber to suddenly "come back to life" without alerting those above.

However, the country has adopted a "neutral balance" attitude that tends to be tacit.

While outwardly supporting the stability maintenance efforts of the "Divine Comedy" movement, both sides secretly condone and even support the technological research and development of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Neither side wants to disrupt social order or affect the overall situation, so they have temporarily accepted the current power structure.

Intuition told Mingpo that neither a victory for the Chinese Chamber of Commerce nor a victory for the Divine Comedy would be a good thing.

Ultimately, whether it's the "Divine Comedy" or the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, their ultimate goal is to preserve the game of deception and use the power of time to their advantage. If they completely overwhelm the other side and bring the nation and even the world under their control, that would certainly not be the future Mingbo desires. But conversely…

If he could navigate between these two opposing organizations, which are like the two poles of a battery, he might be able to seize enough benefits and learn enough secret information!

This gave Mingpo a clear direction to work towards.

As for the "High Mountain Society," whose influence is mainly in Europe, and the foreign deceitful organizations "Witches' Gathering" and "Noble Blood," Mingbo has not yet been able to contact them. But presumably, they also have their own principles... in order to attract enough supporters.

After all, those who deceive the world have far too much freedom.

Those who deceive the world at the bottom may still be limited by not having enough time... but once they reach Zhou Zhiqingqian and possess the Hall, it seems that they can resist a certain degree of spacetime turbulence.

At that stage, if a charlatan doesn't continue to advance, they'll have almost nothing left to do but enjoy life; danger will become insignificant. It's like Gao Song—he's been frying fish unharmed for ten years. If he hadn't encountered Ming Po, a powerhouse with an almost superhuman ability, he could have continued frying fish for decades longer.

At this moment, Mingpo can finally stand on the dance of deception and truly touch the veil of truth...

Even if it's just a light touch.

Previously, Mingpo couldn't even find the "party door"!

They were just outsiders jumping around to the leaked revelry music outside the ball.

"However, if that's the case..."

Mingpo fell into thought, tapping his fingers on the sofa.

He's increasingly feeling that the Witches' Gathering seems to be an organization against deceit.

As an organization with an equally long history, the Witches' Gathering must know many secrets, and they certainly know some of the hidden truths about the Deception Game. Among these secrets would be the knowledge lock on "how to make a designated target a wrongful death."

Their behavior of "repeatedly going back to the past and creating even older deceivers" now seems to Mingbo to be akin to "ending everything from the very beginning in order to trace back to the original deception game."

Of course, this is just wishful thinking on Mingpo's part.

That's what they might think, or it might not be.

The only thing that can be certain is that they possess a great deal of secrets and intelligence.

It's just a pity that I definitely won't be able to get in.

Since the organization is called "Witches' Gathering," they must only recruit girls, right?

And Mingpo's organization doesn't even have a single girl. Sending someone in as a mole is practically impossible...? "...Hmm."

Thinking of this, a name popped into Mingpo's mind.

nameless.

Mingpo hesitated.

She seemed to owe Mingpo a considerable favor, but Mingpo had no memory of it at all, so he didn't know whether he should forgive her—not that Mingpo was petty, but that he didn't even know what the other party had done, so how could he forgive her?

And he had just scolded her not long ago...

Mingpo subconsciously spun the wine bottle in his hand.

When his gaze focused on the wine bottle, his thoughts suddenly became confused for a moment.

...two organizations...double agents...a mixture...

……liquor.

...Cocktail mixing?

Mingpo suddenly realized something and sat up straight in an instant.

If...

The title exists in the form of "wine," and it changes when he "drinks" one of the bottles.

What if...

What will happen if he mixes the two bottles of wine together and drinks them together?
