Chapter 840: Who is the biggest beneficiary?
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The world was about to be unified!
At least on the surface.
There is no doubt that after today, the federal government is going to clean things up. In the past, those guys who depended on the top ten families to commit crimes, they most likely won’t be able to escape anymore. With the Su family’s old ancestor’s help, Su Hao was able to witness that battle, that amazing action of the Federation.
When everyone left the Su family’s residence, Su Hao still hadn’t come back to his senses.
How could it be like this?
This is simply amazing!
Inexplicably…
In his mind, Su Hao suddenly recalled the first sentence of Romance of the Three Kingdom’s first section, “In this vast world, things are constantly changing…”
“What are you thinking about?”
Su Hao shook his head to get rid of his messy thoughts.
Now, the problems weren’t about this, but that he didn’t deduce all these occurrences! Under the deduction of Illusion Reality, as long as there is a 0.001%, it will appear! However, no matter how he looked, this scene wasn’t present.
Is it because he’s too weak?
After all, this was the battle between world espers, and it was obviously not something he could participate in originally.
The deduced information to him was merely the probability of success. After all, there is a lot of information that he didn’t deduce in this battle. The stage of Rule Force isn’t something that he could penetrate. However, if so, why can’t the Tian family see this?
Here is where the problem arises!
Su Hao felt a chill.
At this time, he finally realized the problem. It was too smooth! Whether it’s spying on the Tian family or secretly scheming against them, everything went too smoothly! The Tian family, who was so out of reach in the past, seemed to have become a scarecrow that easily fell. With several of his plans, the Tian family didn’t even have the strength to fight back.
Is the Tian family really that weak?
Impossible!
He could deduce with his Illusion Reality and come up with plans by using the smart computer. Could the world espers of the Tian family really not sense the danger?
Impossible!
Then why weren’t they prepared at all?
Unless…
A more powerful character appeared!
He didn’t need to take action nor deal with the Tian family. All he did was to make sure the things the Tian family deduced could not see through Su Hao’s plan. Just like that, the entire Tian family would slowly walk into the pit dug by Su Hao, while being clueless!
Then, the game would end.
And this person is most likely from the federal government.
“A double-edged sword.” Su Hao bitterly smiled.
Using the Federation was a double-edged sword. He was using the federal government, while the federal government was using him too. Of course, this was a win-win situation. Su Hao used the federal government to eradicate this tumor, the Tian family, and the federal government used Su Hao for their world unification.
At least, that was it for now.
As for the Tian family’s territory…
Neither Su Hao nor Su family had an interest in it. Out of the top ten families, the Su family is the one with the smallest territory and develops in a unique manner. They rarely interact with the outside world.
This was also the only opportunity now!
“Withdraw!”
“Order all the Su family members to return to our residence!”
Su Hao resolutely gave his order, “All Su family disciples are to return at once. No matter what mission it is, immediately abort it! Return with an aircraft. The family will reimburse them. No matter which territory you’re at, you must not expose any affiliation with the Su family.”
“The highest level order, execute immediately!”
“Yes!” Big Elder suddenly stood up.
No matter how many questions he had, he looked calm right now. Since the order was issued, they had to execute it. Whether it was Su Hao’s previous performance or now, he deserved their respect.
All the elders left and immediately conveyed Su Hao’s order.
The atmosphere in the Su family suddenly became tense.
“Plus, the matters that happened today, we must never leak it to others, especially my identity. Once it is leaked out, the Su family is destined to face a huge disaster!”
“Yes!”
Yet another order was issued.
Only when everyone became busy, did Su Hao sigh in relief.
“What happened?” Su Zhengwen noticed his tense expression.
“The four major families have merged into the Federation. No, including the Zhang family, that should be five families.” Su Hao calmly said, but the content was extremely disturbing.
“Could they be…”
“Yes.” Su Hao said in a stern tone, “They finally can’t sit still. Although this time, it’s a war started by the Tian family, the driving factor behind it is still the federal government! In fact, I suspect that when this operation was planned, there were even some people from the federal government among the Tian family’s world espers.”
Su Zhengwen was stunned.
The one who started the war was actually the federal government?
In other words…
The man behind the scene is the federal government? The more Su Zhengwen thought of it, the more terrified he felt. In the end, he shook his head, “It shouldn’t be possible, right? Haven’t all the world espers of Tian family been exiled? Could they even willing to sacrifice their own men?”
“Why not?” Su Hao smirked.
“In this world, many people are willing to sacrifice themselves for some people or reason. Although it doesn’t make sense to us, from the perspective of the federal government, this is a major milestone in history!”
“As for some things, they always need to be sacrificed.”
“It’s either by force or voluntary.” Su Hao calmly said.
Hearing this, Su Zhengwen even felt a chill. These are world espers! How could they be sacrificed like that? If this is the case…
“This is why you recalled all the Su family’s disciples?” Su Zhengwen asked.
“Yes.” Su Hao nodded, “Since the Federation only wants to become a voice, then we will let them! No matter which territory, there must be no other voice!”
“The Su family disciples, all must return!”
“The Su family must not have any existence in any territory! Only in this way can the Su family stay out of this chaos.”
“So that’s the case.”
Only then did Su Zhengwen understand the meaning behind Su Hao’s order. This war had only just begun after the end of a giant battle!
“Could they take action on the Su family?” Su Zhengwen was a little restless.
“They won’t.” Su Hao shook his head, “There are many hidden forces in this world. Can the Federation eradicate them all? Shady organizations such as Piao Ling Organization are not in a small number, and did the government do anything to them? Impossible! As long as they don’t have territory or cause any trouble, these other forces could also survive.”
“Those are just small forces.” Su Zhengwen wasn’t stupid, “The Su family is such a huge force, the Federation will always be restless.”
“They can only resort to being assured.” Su Hao smiled, “With this powerful world esper, Lin Hu, Lin Hu’s friends, the Su family’s old ancestor, and the other world espers, the Federation dare not act rashly and offend such a terrifying force!”
“Plus, the Su family has always been isolating ourselves over this past decade. We are never involved in any power struggle, which reassures the Federation even more.”
“Thus, all disciples are to come back, and the most important thing is our attitude.”
Su Zhengwen nodded in silence.
“True, now the Federation still thinks that I am your friend, a powerful, heaven-defying character who enjoys playing games. With just pointing a finger, I can find several world espers. With the existence of “me”, the Federation would pay a massive price in dealing with the Su family!”
“Now, as the Federation just united the world, what they’re lacking is manpower and strength!”
“At this time, if we don’t go seek trouble with them, they would be secretly happy. Of course, if the Su family dares to challenge the Federation, they won’t be acting soft due to having to pay heavy prices. After all, the only chance for the Federation to unite the world would be gone!”
“So, this is now a game between the Su family and the Federation.”
“It’s just as simple as winning or losing.”
“If anyone accidentally touches the minefield, it would likely cause a war which shouldn’t have occurred, and both sides can’t escape from suffering huge losses!”
Su Hao analyzed sentence by sentence.
Hearing this, Su Zhengwen’s heart became alarmed. A war between world espers actually became so complex! Each time he converses with Su Hao, he feels that his IQ is low. Su Zhengwen suddenly felt that he belonged to those who were sold off and helped to calculate money for others.
Hold on…
Damn!
Could he have been “sold off” before?
“So, our next step…” Su Zhengwen pondered for a moment, “We just need to watch from the sideline?”
“Yes.” Su Hao nodded, “After all our disciples are back, we’re to isolate the Su family. In this short period of time, an all-around improvement in strength is sufficient. Anyway, the Su family is united as one, and we do not lack anything. As for outside contact, we will only show ourselves after having sufficient capital!”
“True.” Su Zhengwen was deeply convinced of Su Hao’s analysis.
“It takes a long time for the unification and to stabilize it. Another period of time is required. When the Federation finally has total control of the world…”
Su Hao’s eyes lit up, “That will be the moment when the Su family needs to take action!”
Su Zhengwen went silent.
“Of course, I only speculate this by considering the enemy as one with the greatest malicious intent.”
Su Hao smiled, “Perhaps after the unification, all power is used to fight against the beasts, clearing the beast battlefield for humanity and eradicating the beasts once and for all!”
“Do you believe it?” Su Zhengwen sneered.
“Nope, I don’t believe it.” Su Hao shrugged his shoulder.
One of humanity’s inferiorities, endless civil war. The berserk beasts had not been creating trouble for too long that people thought that this world is now peaceful. Unless the beasts decide to invade, the Federation would be restless after several years.
“Don’t worry too much.” Su Zhengwen laughed, “The secret of your internal strength isn’t bad. A few top-notch grade A talents have appeared. In our next battle, we can definitely surprise the enemy.”
“That is true.” Su Hao’s eyes were filled with strong expectations.
“But the only pitiful part was the resources for this victory.” Su Zhengwen was a little emotional, “At first, I thought I could use the Tian family’s resources to supplement ours, but never would I thought the Federation would snipe them away.”
“Uh…” Su Hao paused for a second, “There is something which I’m not sure whether I should say or not.”
“Just say it out.”
“Actually, the reward for destroying the Tian family, they had already paid us.”
“Oh? When?” Su Zhengwen was stunned.
“Before leaving the Tian family, I went to their energy warehouse for a walk.” Su Hao calmly said.
“…”
Su Zhengwen instantly went dumbstruck. After a long time did he regain his senses. He then patted Su Hao’s shoulder fiercely, “You’re still the most ruthless one!”
