Invincible Copy System
Chapter Summary
If the Mage Guild comes, this job will definitely be interfered with unless your superiors can protect it." Liu Ning chuckled and said that this was absolutely impossible. Liu Ning was one of their people, and they'd just said he was a high-ranking officer, but now that something had happened, they couldn't control him. Although they couldn't help Liu Ning handle the situation, the Human Investigation Bureau, after hearing Miss Julie's report, indicated they would send a dedicated team to speak ...
"Whatever you're talking about, I only have one request right now: hurry up. You know my current situation. Besides going to the ancient ruins, I have a lot of things waiting for me at the Mage Guild. If they get involved, things will become much more difficult. Your Human Investigation Bureau is powerful enough, but the Mage Guild isn't to be trifled with either. You know what I've done wrong. If their enforcement team comes, I might cause you a lot of trouble. So, let's resolve this quickly. I'll also have time to take care of my own affairs. It's a race against time. If the Mage Guild comes, this job will definitely be interfered with unless your superiors can protect it."
Liu Ning chuckled and said that this was absolutely impossible. The higher-ups had already given instructions, only asking Liu Ning to handle this matter. If they wanted to protect Liu Ning, they would have definitely intervened when this happened last time. The fact that no one was stepping forward could only mean one thing: those people didn't want to get involved. They felt that this matter had little to do with them. Moreover, while Liu Ning had some usefulness, the benefits he could not possibly be equivalent to those of the Mage Guild. That was absolutely impossible. If it were equivalent to the Mage Guild, then things would be complicated. It was precisely because of this that many people felt things were not going well under these circumstances.
Miss Julie smiled beside her. This was indeed a bit of a problem for their Human Investigation Bureau. Liu Ning was one of their people, and they'd just said he was a high-ranking officer, but now that something had happened, they couldn't control him. If this was what high-ranking officers were like, Liu Ning would rather not have done this. There should have been cooperation from top to bottom. It would be best if they could get through this Baron together. If they couldn't, many things could be postponed. That's the situation now. Regardless of what you're thinking, when doing things like this, everyone should do their job well. If something isn't done well, then there's nothing more to say. That's the situation now. Once these things are done, sometimes it's time to take certain steps to resolve the issue.
The members of the Mage's Guild are well aware of the current situation. If they could simply take Liu Ning with them, they would certainly do so. However, Liu Ning's strength has increased too rapidly, and both sides need to give him some face. If Liu Ning insists on not going, and the Mage's Guild issues the order, then the Mage's Guild will face two formidable enemies: the Human Council and the military. There is also a potential enemy: the Human Investigation Bureau. The Human Investigation Bureau would never allow itself to fall out with the Mage's Guild because of Liu Ning, but it also would never allow itself to be taken advantage of. Therefore, the Human Investigation Bureau has its own plans. Liu Ning's backing is exceptionally strong.
Although they couldn't help Liu Ning handle the situation, the Human Investigation Bureau, after hearing Miss Julie's report, indicated they would send a dedicated team to speak with the Mage Guild. They hoped the Mage Guild would refrain from causing trouble for at least the next three days. While the Mage Guild was powerful, it still needed to consult with the Human Imitation Masters on certain issues. If they went too far, it would be difficult to manage in the capital. The Human Investigation Bureau was also a force to be reckoned with, and any disturbance would be detrimental to everyone. They figured they had already waited three days; surely they could wait that long? The Mage Guild had many shrewd and patient individuals, so they agreed.
The Human Investigation Bureau generally operates with a high degree of discipline. If they can't handle something, they'll find other ways to compromise. So far, they've handled this matter quite well. Liu Ning initially didn't intend to involve them in resolving the issue. For minor problems, the Bureau's reputation alone would likely have been enough to suppress the other party. However, this matter was clearly not minor, so they simply kept quiet. Speaking up in this matter could potentially cause trouble for them. People aren't fools; do you think they can handle trouble caused by you? Even if they help you weather this storm, they'll never say a word about it again.
After about 45 minutes of driving, Liu Ning finally arrived at their location. Liu Ning now knew just how big this city was. The past 45 minutes had all been spent on the highway. Miss Julie's car had a special pass, so it was traveling very fast on the highway, almost reaching 200 kilometers per hour. You have to understand that the speed of cars now is incomparable to what it used to be. But even so, Liu Ning knew the size of this city. After driving so far, he couldn't see the edge of the city at all. Human capitals are different from other cities. They are indeed huge cities. No wonder there are so many people in this city. No wonder those high-ranking and powerful people are willing to settle down here. This represents the highest level of human development.
"This is the area we've targeted, but it's home to 12.7 million people. We initially wanted to investigate them one by one, but that was rejected by our superiors, who felt we lacked a strong leader. Now that we've brought you here, the rest is up to you. If you want us to investigate, we'll make arrangements immediately. We can hold them here for 10 days. If it exceeds 10 days, the entire city could face huge problems. Sealing off this area can yield some resources, but it absolutely cannot exceed 10 days. If it does, the Human Investigation Bureau won't be able to explain it to these people. You know they wield considerable power in the capital, so some things aren't as simple as we can do. We hope you can understand."
