"After all, you can't expect us to get any information from a dead monster, right?"
"The time since SDS was founded is probably not as long as the time since Yuyuko died."
Hearing this, Luo Shu was even more stunned:
"Is Yuyuko dead?"
"At least it's dead now." Shim gave an ambiguous answer: "According to the records, Yuyuko seems to have the ability to come back to life and steal other people's bodies. It also has a strong ability to hide."
"In this case, many intelligence reconnaissance methods cannot be used."
"The information about Yuyuko still being in the 'death cycle' was obtained by Jiuhui Cheng through divination, and it was 073."
After saying that, Shim glanced at Luo Shu and snickered:
"Jiu Huicheng is the one who was fooled by you, Luo Shu."
"You actually lied to Jiu Huicheng and said you couldn't tell fortunes. Luo Shu, you really have a bad heart."
Hearing this, Luo Shu did not refute his bad intentions, but frowned and said:
"The Hagoromo Fox has not been resurrected, but the Hagoromo Group has begun to take action and has set their sights on the raw liver of a noble lady."
"So can we suspect that Yuyuko's resurrection will be in the near future?"
“You can think so.”
Shim did not refute Luo Shu's guess, but responded with affirmation:
"The Hagoromo Group is an organization with many great monsters. Although the leader on the surface is Hagoromo Fox, in fact, the real leader is the monster 'Nue', which is the incarnation of Abe Haruaki."
"Hagoromo Kitsune usually manages the Hagoromo Group as the mother of Nue."
"Without the orders from Nue or Yugoriko, the Yugoriko Group will hardly take any action."
"This is also the reason why the Yuyi Group was not conquered, because they were particularly honest before receiving orders."
"To be honest, even the Samurai Shuu and Onmyoji think that the Nura Clan is a bigger threat than them."
"Of course, there is also a very important point, that is, the Hagoromo Group is a force in Kyoto, and that is the base camp of some of the leading families of the Onmyoji Bureau."
"The Hanakaiin family, the Gomonin family, the Jinguji family, and even some reclusive families like the Asakura family, all have bases in Kyoto."
"In addition, there are also shrines and temples such as Fushimi Inari Taisha, Byodoin Phoenix Hall, and Arashiyama Tenryuji Temple."
"In an environment like this where there are so many tigers around, even the many powerful demons in the Feathered Clothes Group can only lie dormant."
"Not even if their Nue Mother is included."
Hearing this, Luo Shu just raised his eyebrows and said calmly:
"But they still acted, didn't they?"
"And they have also been targeting noble ladies who have the potential to become family members..."
Hearing this, Ximu immediately smiled and said, "I know what you mean, Luo Shu. It is indeed necessary to take precautions before something happens."
After all, Luo Shu didn't know how many noble ladies in the entire island country could become his followers. This potential "points cornucopia", even if one was lost, would be enough to make Luo Shu, Shimlaks and the others feel distressed.
You know, this is a treasure pot that can automatically generate points every month.
"Under normal circumstances, when this kind of danger occurs, Kirika and I both agree to dispatch an action team to eliminate these more dangerous enemies first."
Hearing Shim say this, Luo Shu immediately raised his eyebrows:
"So this is an abnormal situation?"
"Yes."
Shim sighed, then looked at Luo Shu solemnly and said:
"Luo Shu, do you still remember that ceremony?"
"The ritual of the 'Disaster Sacrifice' that allows you to advance to the rank of hero."
Hearing this, Luo Shu's pupils shrank slightly, and the content of the promotion ceremony suddenly emerged in his mind.
[Advanced Ritual: Create a disaster that affects no less than 500,000 people, and when the despair reaches its peak, consume all the advanced materials and auxiliary materials, and make a move to greatly weaken the disaster. The higher the degree of weakening, the better the effect of the ritual.]
"What do you mean?!" Luo Shu suddenly realized what the abnormality that Shim was talking about came from.
"Yes." Shim nodded and said, "After receiving the news last night, I proposed the idea of 'resurrecting Nue' to Lux."
"Assuming that the opponent is that Abe Haruaki, Luo Shu, you should be able to deal with him, right?"
Hearing Shim say this, Luo Shu's mouth twitched:
"You think too highly of me, don't you?"
"What if the other party is a demigod?"
Hearing this, Shim smiled slyly and said, "So it's okay for people below demigod level?"
Luo Shu did not refute this. If it was someone below demigod, even if they had the same special job, it might be possible to defeat him, but killing him would be almost impossible.
"So there is still some manipulation involved, isn't there?"
Shim handed the teacup he had been holding to Luo Shu.
When Luo Shu took the teacup, Shim knew that Luo Shu had been mostly convinced.
As for the remaining half, it depends on her eloquence.
"SDS can secretly support the Hagoromo Group and allow them to cause a disaster that affects the entire Kyoto."
"And it is almost undisputed that they will definitely choose to resurrect Nue, the so-called Abe Haruaki."
"The great Onmyoji from a thousand years ago has resurrected and intends to rule Kyoto and reshape the magical capital where humans and demons danced together a thousand years ago."
"This behavior must have reached the conditions for the ritual to be completed. Am I right?"
Hearing Shim's words, Luo Shu drank the tea in one gulp and asked:
"How do you plan to deal with the many forces in Kyoto?"
"They won't let Nue, Abe Haruaki, be resurrected safely."
"No, they will."
Shim said with a very firm tone:
"After all, there is a prerequisite for completely killing a person."
"That means the person must be 'alive' first!"
Chapter 273: 'Support' also has its meaning
Resurrect that Abe Haruaki and then kill him?
Hearing this, Luo Shu could only say to Shim:
"You rock!"
"Aren't you worried about getting into trouble?"
"If the resurrected Abe Haruaki is a demigod, that would be really fun."
"Then I have to ask you a question, Luo Shu." Shim looked at Luo Shu with some curiosity and said, "If Abe Haruaki is a demigod, can Miss Tokisaki solve him?"
"And if Miss Tokisaki can solve this matter, can the ritual be completed?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Do you think I'm omniscient and omnipotent? Or some omnipotent Doraemon?"
"How would I know about this kind of thing?"
After finishing speaking, Luo Shu paused and added: "Although the Encyclopedia of Mysticism is a demigod-level abyss item, it does not mean that it can definitely predict the existence of demigods, and it cannot guarantee whether such divination is accurate or not."
"In fact, I used it to tell fortunes for Kurumi in private, but she discovered it instantly."
"If they hadn't discovered that it was me who was fortune-telling, I would have been punished by Kuang San."
"Even so, Kurumi is still a time spirit who is not good at divination. If it were someone else who was more likely to be good at divination, I even suspect that I would be counterattacked."
Shim murmured upon hearing this, "I see, so that convenient encyclopedia is invalid for Demigod level and above?"
Luo Shu put down his teacup and added:
"It cannot be said to be ineffective, but the effect is greatly reduced, and there is a risk of being discovered and counterattacked."
"And if you want to do accurate divination, the encyclopedia needs something related to the object of divination. The closer the related object is to the object, the stronger the effect."
Hearing this, Shim blinked and said in surprise: "Doesn't that mean that if we want detailed information about Abe Haruaki, we have to steal the placenta while the fox is giving birth?"
"Forehead...."
After this was said, not to mention Luo Shu, even Mu Geng, who had been listening, felt that this method was quite bizarre.
"Let's try the items that the feathered fox has touched first, or the hair or something like that. Stealing the placenta is a bit too early. After all, the birth of Nue, or Abe Haruaki, has not yet been seen."
Luo Shu considered it for a while and gave his own suggestion.
After all, it's about improving one's strength. Even though Luo Shu feels disgusted, he doesn't want to miss any possible variables.
The most troublesome thing in the plan of using the "ritual of the Hagoromo group to revive Nue" to conduct the promotion ceremony this time is actually the strength of Abe Haruaki and Hagoromo Kitsune.
After all, the final level of the ceremony requires Luo Shu to step in and resolve the matter.
In other words, after Abe Haruaki was resurrected as the Nue, Luo Shu still had to send it back to hell.
Even if Luo Shu didn't fight back to hell personally, he still played a crucial role in it.
In view of this, information about Abe Haruaki and Yuyuko has become a top priority.
After all, no one wants to fail at a critical moment.
"By the way, how did Lux agree to such a catastrophic event?"
When Luo Shu said this, he glanced at Shim, his face full of curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Shim just smiled:
"Please don't think of our Supreme Chancellor as a fool who can only shout 'We must protect the people'."
"It was just a 'large haunted house' shooting over 50 people. It didn't even threaten their lives. It can only be described as a shock."
"Luo Shu, are you so guilty that you want to die because you scared others on Halloween?"
"Even if the number of people frightened is as high as 50."
"I understand."
Luo Shu nodded and understood what Lux was thinking.
As long as sufficient benefits are achieved and the degree of harm to the people is controlled, Lux's moral bottom line is very flexible.
"In fact, compared to convincing Lux, it is more difficult to persuade those 'old guards' in SDS."
When SDS was first established, it was founded by Siegel.
Therefore, personnel loyal to American arms dealers still account for a large proportion of the SDS.
For example, the Ministry of Commerce that Ju Kirika had mentioned before was the base camp of this group of people.
The old people that Shim mentioned are the representatives of these people.
However, Luo Shu was unusually casual towards these people:
"With your means, there are many ways, right?"
"For example, when the project was just beginning, the proposal with key information concealed was placed in a pile of unimportant documents and given to them for review."
"It's impossible that these old guys can read tens of thousands of complicated documents in a short period of time and accurately find the part of our hidden plan, right?"
Hearing Luo Shu say this, Shim blinked and looked at him with emotion.
"Does Luo Shu plan to be a civil servant in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Shu spread his hands and said, "...I just watched a few more English political comedies and know dozens of ways for civil servants to fool their leaders."
After that, Luo Shu asked, "How do we get the raw liver they need?"
Xim winked at Luo Shu at this time: "I think raw liver is not as good as the flesh and blood of the big monster, right?"
Luo Shu suddenly realized, "The flesh and blood of the great monsters I brought back from the Abyss Warring States Period? Will the quantity be insufficient?"
"Then let Wealdi study how to replicate it. It's just a matter of funding."
