Chapter 149 Ace Agent and the Black Letter
In the empty hall is a huge long marble table. Beside the table are high-end chairs. The seats were filled with people, but the strange thing was that most of them were illusory figures glowing with blue light.
It's not haunted, it's called holographic projection.
Xuanyuan, who was sitting on the main seat, was wearing a black Chinese tunic suit. He looked at the two uneasy foreigners across the long table with a kind face: "There is an old saying in Yanguo, it is a joy to have friends come from far away. You two, this time As a guest, why don’t you get straight to the point?”
"Um..." "Whiskey" Agent Berry looked a little frightened at this time. He hesitated for a long time without daring to speak. Meanwhile, "Galahad" Eggsy on the side was wet on his back, soaked with cold sweat. .
The aura of the calm old man in front of them made them feel pressured.
The reason why the long table is suitable for formal talks is that the seating arrangement of the long table can show the relationship between the two parties. Judging from the distance between the two agents from Britain and the United States and Xuanyuan, it is obvious that these foreigners are not actually welcomed by Yanguo's secret agent academy.
Berry knew he was in the wrong and had no choice. The things his country's top boss had done recently were so disgusting that they directly caused the relationship between the United States and the Yan Kingdom to fall to a freezing point. This time he had to represent the United States. The leader of the wine industry [Champagne] comes to the people of Huaxia Craftsmanship to seek cooperation. It is equivalent to giving the other party a slap in the face one second, and asking the other party to reconcile the next second. If they don’t directly deport you, it will be considered as giving you face. .
But there is no way, after all, both the United States and England have problems.
The recent frequent large-scale riots and missing persons cases have caused headaches for senior officials in the United States and England. Many conspiracy theorists attribute everything to the economic depression and riots by people of color. However, only intelligence organizations in various countries know that there are actually people behind the various problems that have occurred in recent times.
The reason why he sought help from Yan State was because there was no similar situation at all in Yan State.
The senior officials of the United Liquor Industry and the Royal Gentlemen of England believe that the mastermind behind the scenes may be afraid of some power, so they have not taken action against Yan Guo for a long time. And the reason for everything may only be found out by looking for the anti-agent organization of Yan Kingdom.
As an old rival, [Champagne] knows that it is not appropriate for him to go to the Yan Kingdom, and the Royal Gentry has experienced a large-scale destructive operation, which has not yet been completed. The current leader [Arthur] Harry Hart is busy rebuilding I couldn't be there because I was working, so I had to ask young people to come and talk.
"Don't be nervous, you two. Mr. Champ and Mr. Harry obviously have full confidence in you, so they will entrust the task to you two, don't they?" Xuanyuan smiled slightly, and the aura on his body dissipated without a trace. Berry and Egg Xi felt relieved at this moment.
"Thank you for your praise, Mr. Xuanyuan." Eggsy pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said cautiously.
"Just call me Lao Yuan or Yuan Ding. We in the Yan Kingdom are not used to using code names." Xuanyuan smiled and waved his hand, "Generally, code names are only used in official tasks or meetings."
"So, this time we are here for the recent riots and missing persons cases in the United Kingdom and the United States. Is my guess right?"
"Yes." Berry also regained her usual calmness and wisdom at this moment. She said seriously, "Mr. Champ conducted an investigation through the United States Liquor Industry's intelligence network, and Tequila agents went to the location of the latest incident and intercepted it. There was a corrupted surveillance video and we repaired the video and found this."
Berry took out his cell phone and performed some operations, and then the surveillance video began to play on the conference screen nearby.
The most recent incident took place in Los Angeles, USA. In the picture, many American people were demonstrating. However, what is puzzling is that the group led by them was very organized, and their steps and movements were surprisingly consistent. The square formation during the Yanguo military exercise, the steps were neat and the slogans were unified.
Since the United States does not prohibit civilians from possessing firearms, the marchers were basically armed, and a few of the leaders were even armed with heavy firepower weapons. The American police basically had nothing to do about it, and in the end even asked the local military to Assistance was requested and the riot was suppressed.
However, the local military did not capture any organizers, and the participants basically claimed that they had no memory of participating in the riot. After eliminating all possibilities, the last option may be the real truth.
The memories of the participants have been modified, or in other words, the participants themselves have been manipulated by special forces.
[Xuanyuan] Yuan Ding pondered, this familiar technique seems to be similar to the ability of the Isu artifact [Apple of Eden] recorded by the Yan Kingdom Brotherhood. The most recently discovered [Apple of Eden], according to Basim's report, had been destroyed by Chen Yan using the power of "outsiders".
It is not ruled out that the person behind the scenes also owns the [Apple of Eden], so the person behind the scenes this time should also be related to the North American Templar Order.
Qin Zheng, on the other hand, frowned. The video screen kept replaying. He squinted his eyes and said, "Two minutes and 2 seconds, pause on that screen."
After hearing this, Berry paused the video according to Qin Zheng's request. Qin Zheng stood up, walked to the screen, pointed to a location and said, "Here, zoom in and take a look."
The video screen was enlarged, and only then did everyone see clearly what the problem Qin Zheng had discovered.
The first person, on the ring finger of his right hand, is a ring with the "Seal of Cain". As for his ring, the cross on the emblem is not the normal red, but black with silver edging.
"Black Cross..." Yuan Ding frowned and said.
The Black Cross was the internal law enforcement agency of the Knights Templar. Otto Berg was one of the former leaders of the Black Cross, and it was Otto Berg who led the first collaboration with the Assassin Brotherhood. However, after Otto Berg surrendered the Juno apostles of the first Isu civilization, Otto resigned and the Black Cross also declared independence.
The Black Cross is called by the Templar Order "a bud taken from the Assassin tree and grafted onto the Templar Order." The original reason for its creation was to prevent the senior leaders of the Templar Order from being affected by power. And corruption serves as the law enforcer to clean up heresy and corruption within the sect. The Black Cross have abilities similar to those of the Assassin Brotherhood, and are even more cunning and unscrupulous. The top Assassins once suspected that the inspiration or founder of the Black Cross was the traitor "Shay Cormac" of the North American Brotherhood.
The Black Cross also served as the secret weapon of the Templar Order and killed countless assassins. It is said that the Black Cross was behind the several "big purges" operations led by the Templar Order in North America.
So, why is the Black Cross involved in this incident?
