Chapter 1611 People's Tactics
It was not without reason that Gu Yi chose to leave at such a time.
As she said to Peter, in order to monitor the movement of hell, this can only be regarded as part of the reason. The more important reason is that she still needs to do another job.
As for the government, she needs to maintain a certain amount of contact. Because she knew that if she couldn't make any achievements, Stark might not be willing to maintain this cooperative relationship with her. The guy was a pretty realistic pragmatist, and he wouldn't be able to do what most politicians do with their brains.
She must reflect her role, only in this way, the relationship between her and Stark can be firmly maintained. And how can we reflect our own value and role? Gu Yi feels that making a fuss about hell is obviously a choice that can satisfy both parties.
As the supreme mage, she has mastered countless spells that can enable ordinary people to deal with devils and evil spirits. And she herself doesn't mind sharing this method with ordinary people. However, with her own strength alone, even if she has the ability to separate herself, she can only teach a hundred people at most. This is simply a drop in the bucket for the threats facing mankind today. So instead of wasting time on your own, do this kind of thankless work. Then it's better to cooperate with the government and use the government's hand to promote her spells.
She remembered how widespread the US government television network was. The Apollo moon landing can be known to the whole world, and these TV media are absolutely indispensable. On this kind of matter, as long as the government is willing to contribute, her simple teaching materials can be widely spread to the whole world immediately. And with the huge base of human beings today, even if only one tenth of them learn her spells and methods, it is enough to deal a heavy blow to the entire power of hell.
Although this kind of method is somewhat suspected of harming others and benefiting oneself, it is still necessary in this kind of big right and wrong that has to do with racial stance. Therefore, Gu Yi no longer hesitated. Instead, he rushed towards Stark's place immediately.
When they met for the first time, Ancient One had already made a mark on Stark's body. This mark would allow her to instantly appear to Stark, no matter where he was in the world.
Logically speaking, she could go to see him directly like this. However, in any case, Stark is also the president of the United States, the highest official of this country. The relationship between them is only a relationship of mutual cooperation and utilization, not a relationship between superiors and subordinates. Going there rashly like this will not have any other effect except to annoy him and create a gap in their relationship. So even she can only come outside the White House honestly. Then through some secret ways, he notified Stark of his arrival.
Judging from Stark's reaction, he still attaches great importance to the cooperative relationship with Master Ancient One. Because shortly after receiving the notification, he had already sent someone over to directly connect Gu Yi into the White House.
You know, today's White House is not what it used to be, and it can still be used as a tourist attraction and open to outsiders to visit. Since the last attack, the entire White House has entered an unprecedented state of martial law. So even if the office staff inside want to go in and out, they have to go through strict inspections. For an unidentified guy like Gu Yi, who is likely to be a superpower, being able to be directly introduced in this way is already very obvious of Stark's sincerity.
This is why Stark can have the confidence to do such a thing. If any other high-ranking government official sat in his position, I'm afraid he would not dare to issue such an order. Not only would they not do this, but even the security personnel were against it. For example, the security guard who sent Gu Yi in, he had already given such a warning in her ear very rudely when he opened the door for Gu Yi.
"Be careful, I've been staring at you? So you'd better not do anything you shouldn't do!"
"Of course, I'm just here as a guest, aren't I?"
Smiling and replying, Gu Yi had already walked into the reception room specially prepared by Stark for her. Seeing Gu Yi walking in, Stark, who had already been waiting here, immediately raised his eyebrows, and said this to her very rudely.
"You came just in time. I almost forgot that I still have a partner like you!"
"I thought you'd have a lot of things to do. After all, you're the president and you have to make decisions about everything in this country. It's always going to keep you busy. So of course, I can't just take it easy. Come to interrupt your work, no?"
A cooperative relationship means that both parties are on an equal footing. And since they are equal, it is of course impossible for Ancient One to allow Stark to mock him at will without making any response. Although her words were not particularly sharp, they were enough to block Stark's ridicule.
Faced with this situation, Stark, who didn't want to engage in such unnecessary verbal disputes, could only purse his lips in a strange expression, then spread his hands, and changed the subject to Gu Yi.
"Well, since you came in a timely manner, we don't need to worry about this kind of thing. Now, tell me, why did you come to me so suddenly? Just like what you said As I said, I still have a lot of things to do, so I hope that what you said will be valuable, and not just waste my time!"
"Of course! I don't like to do useless work either!" Nodding with certainty, Gu Yi straight to the point said to Stark. "I'm ready now to contain the forces of hell from two aspects. On the one hand, you can't interfere with this kind of thing on the mainland of hell. After all, even if you are the president of the United States, it is impossible to send your own Soldiers go to hell to fight, don't they? So, I won't explain that aspect to you in detail. I'm going to tell you another aspect."
Before the cooperation really started, he had already been left out of part of the plan. Such a situation is of course impossible to satisfy Stark. However, because he is facing hell, this relationship with an enemy that has always existed only in legends is daunting and completely unfamiliar. Stark also endured this dissatisfaction, and tried his best to restrain his temper and asked Gu Yi.
"Oh, tell me. What the hell is your so-called cooperation?"
"It's very simple. I need you to cooperate with me in disseminating some spells that can restrain evil spirits and devils. In terms of spells, there are many methods that do not require special abilities. They only need some simple props to treat those evil spirits and demons." The devil causes effective damage. If I teach this kind of thing alone, I will not be able to teach several people. It is impossible to have any effect on the current situation. However, if the government comes forward, then the situation will be different It’s different. Although I am quite old, I still know something about the development of this world. I know that media channels allow you to spread a message to the whole world in a very short period of time. And such The means, combined with my method, can definitely be regarded as a match made in heaven."
"Just imagine, if one out of ten people watching TV learns to use my method. Under the huge base of the entire human race, how much damage can they cause to these devils and evil spirits in hell? The enemy's disadvantage is ours advantage. By continuously weakening them to establish our advantage, I don’t think you will object to this kind of thing.”
Stated his own thoughts, and at the end he blocked Stark with words, the ancient one obviously had considerable confidence in his plan. She even felt that nothing could be better than her idea. Of course, this is just her personal opinion. As for Stark, after listening to Ancient One's narration, his reaction was only silence.
This is not a trivial matter, something that can be decided by patting the ass. Perhaps in Gu Yi's view, this is just a bill that can be implemented with the order of his president. But in Stark's eyes, this kind of thing is a big thing that needs to be cautious and careful, and considered before it can really make a decision.
On this issue, he has many concerns. The first question that needs to be considered is how successful the plan provided by Ancient One is. A plan that requires state guarantees has a success rate of at least 90%. And if it is lower than this probability, no matter what the result is, it will be a blow to the reputation of the entire country. Now he has finally managed to pull the country out of the financial crisis. He doesn't want his country to be hit hard again because of this kind of thing.
This is the first question. Then, if the methods provided by Ancient One fail, what will be the final result?
In fact, there is no need to think too much about this question, Stark can guess it. After all, they were targeting the devil, evil spirits. Not some random thieves and robbers. For ordinary people to deal with a robber with a gun, their lives may be in danger. Not to mention asking them to deal with this more dangerous existence.
If it succeeds, then everything is fine. If it fails, it is almost certainly the worst possible outcome. And if the government wants to endorse this matter, then there is a high probability that the people will put the debt on the government. Although, this idea is completely considered and initiated from the perspective of the people's personal interests. It is to teach them how to save themselves.
However, the passionate people may not necessarily think so. They will only think that the government takes their tax money for nothing, but cannot guarantee their safety. In the end, it was the government that was blamed and impacted.
So, this kind of thing is never that simple. Stark needs to consider too much. And it was precisely because he had to consider so much that in the end, he could only make such a determination.
