Chapter 59 War Never Changes (Part 1)
War never changes.
"It's really no good to let them leave like this.
Problem? "
In Nevada, USA, in the high-rise conference room of the International Illusion Society Building, Raffaello in a black suit and Becas J. Crofodo in a red suit stood in front of the window and looked at the black people gradually leaving below the building. Ford, Becas asked with a glass of red wine in his hand.
Although the IFD building is not far from the International Illusion Society building, the two parties chose to borrow Bekas' conference room for this meeting. The fundamental reason was out of distrust.
This kind of distrust is rooted in the hearts of "Tai Yi" and almost all the top officials in the United States, so not only Rafirou, but also Marshall seemed very satisfied with this meeting location - after all, Bekas is a prominent figure in this country. The existence of as a buffer between the two parties is perfect.
Just like today, Rafaelou, who represents the IFD, and Marshall, who was approached in the personal name of the fleet commander, will negotiate this matter in their own conference room... After all, the American society, including Marshall, does not know that Bekas and Rafiru is from the same group - on the surface, the International Illusion Society has been condemning IFD for taking away their "sole card printing rights" that could have made a lot of money just by sitting down.
This beautiful misunderstanding can be said to be one of the results of IFD's years of "strategic deception". Of course, it can only be regarded as a small addition compared to the biggest results.
"I've said everything I can. I personally think there's no need to continue talking." Rafilu nodded, and then said to Becas: "You didn't go out obediently just now, right?"
In the previous meeting, Bekas, the host, nominally left the conference room to let Rafiru and Marshall talk alone, but Rafiru knew that he definitely did not leave obediently.
Bekas smiled and did not answer directly. Instead, he blinked and said, "You also know that he did not come to us to cooperate as Alexander alone this time... This attitude is combined with what we have received before. Some news is enough to show that the opinions within the military are very inconsistent. "
"I think so too, but it is undeniable that we still need 'regular troops.'" Rafilu pinched his chin and said, "I was there the day 'Overlord' woke up, and I felt that he was a Someone who cares about powerful duelists may deliberately release destructive duelist spirits to destroy them just to force out powerful duelists.”
"So 'regular troops' are needed to delay when those elves appear, right?"
"Yes, but with his caring character for soldiers, it's okay to fool him once or twice, but it's not suitable to be a permanent cannon fodder."
In the meeting just now, the two sides had a full and frank exchange, but in the end no effective progress was made - although Raffaello himself felt that Marshall was much easier to talk to than other senior officials in this country, but he wanted to do so It is also impossible to make a decision quickly.
"So, the target is still the Ackerman family?"
"That's right, who made them the spokesperson of those guys? But this Mr. Marshall... is not without other uses." Lafilu nodded at the table, pointed to a document on the table and said: "Maybe clean up the mess. When I need him to help me.”
Bekas also read the document on the table. What was written on it reminded him of a "chat" that a certain evil behind-the-scenes person had with him seven years ago by borrowing Fujiwara Yukino's body. Bekas remembered what Li Zheng told him at that time. He is bound to succeed in establishing IFD, and the International Illusion Society must hand over its sole sealing rights in order to protect itself in the storm.
Bekas asked him why, and Li Zheng gave many reasons, but the most shocking one was, "When a game of cards can produce the energy of hundreds of tons of oil, the country under your feet will start a duel." The monster becomes frightened and completely stifles its existence”.
At the time, Bekas thought this was nonsense, but agreed to the deal due to other preferential conditions given by Li Zheng. However, he did not expect that in just seven years, all the speculations Li Zheng had said would come true one by one!
The IFD branch in North America is considered one of the most powerful branches. It often holds various competitions. It has also established several dueling academies and dueling gyms in every state.
But these are just appearances, and Rafilu and Bekas know it well.
The actual power of the North American IFD branch is very small, because the top leaders of the US "deep government" know that "IFD" is an extension of "Taiyi", and "Taiyi" is the successor of "Doma".
The United States is a country full of "shadow governments". In the past, there were only two "shadow governments" in this country: "Doma" and "Others."
But now "Doma" has fallen, and "Taiyi" who took over "Doma" has experienced internal friction during the power transfer stage. This gave the "others" who had been stepped on some time to breathe. After Li Zheng and others truly grasped the power of "Tai Yi", the "others" had been twisted into a rope, and a new "shadow government" had emerged. , has the capital to challenge "Taiyi" to a certain extent.
Of course, the top executives of "Taiyi" always complain that the reason why these "others" dare to make such a jump is that Li Zheng has too many salted fishes than Dazi...
Having been suppressed by "Doma" for a long time, they want to get rid of the influence of "Doma" so much that they are now opposed to almost whatever "Tai Yi" wants to do, regardless of whether it is good or bad.
However, although Li Zheng believes that after the concept of "Duel Energy" is officially perfected, the world's energy structure will be completely reshuffled, and the interests of the United States will be devastated. The United States will definitely turn against "Taiyi". But before this day comes, the work that should be done still needs to be done, but there is no cooperation.
Just like after the "Bad Beast Arrival" incident, the North American branch reacted much slower than other branches, but this was not because IFD did nothing, but because IFD was blocked at home by the FBI when it wanted to take action.
When IFD did not take action, the US military launched a large-scale attack on the two "bad beasts" born in the United States, causing a large number of casualties... The actions of the bad beasts were not hindered at all.
Finally, before the bad beasts were about to enter Detroit and New York, the government seemed to be furious and asked the "ZONE" to which IFD belonged to go to rescue.
Of course, senior officials of the US government were indispensable in the middle of the journey. They may want to see the joke of "ZONE".
But soon, the senior officials looked at the "bad beast" that could not be harmed by missiles, artillery or electric shocks, and was dealt with by a few card players with a few cards... This feeling of disparity made them feel uncomfortable as if they had eaten shit.
Especially in New York, when Rafiru's "Guardian Aiathos" fell from the sky like an angel, almost everyone in the city prayed for Aiathos; at the same time, a large number of videos were uploaded to the Internet, making Aiathos an angel in the hearts of countless people in an instant.
In this country where Christian culture is the mainstream, how much appeal will an "angel" who comes in times of crisis have... This energy is simply unimaginable.
This made the senior officials who wanted to see the joke even more uncomfortable, but no matter how uncomfortable it was, this onlooker also made them roughly "understand" how to deal with the duel elves.
