Extraordinary pedigree

Xia Xiu's eyes were locked on the newspaper in his hand. As he read every word, his eyes revealed a different kind of luster.

"Destiny is clear, and the Edici government has exercised freedom and rights. Manifest destiny is a moral concept that can override all concerns, including international laws and international agreements."

Xia Xiu repeated the passage in the newspaper in a low voice.

"It's really interesting. This slogan is okay, but it shouldn't be proposed by the government..." He closed the document with a hint of joking in his tone.

At the same time, his golden eyes also revealed an alertness to the possible consequences behind such a bold declaration.

Nothing a government says or does is arbitrary, especially when it comes to major matters involving international relations and the political landscape.

By putting forward such a slogan so blatantly, the Edisi government is undoubtedly demonstrating its position and determination to the outside world, while also challenging the existing international order.

“Extending the realm of freedom is now the basic point of view of Manifest Destiny of the Edici government.” Pansy Jane added, “Now this doctrine may become the national policy of the Edici Federation.”

"This is the announcement of a miracle." Xia Xiu directly pointed out the true meaning contained in this report.

"Declaration of a miracle?" A hint of surprise flashed across the indifferent expression of the intelligence chief, "Who would allow this miracle to happen? This is - [Destiny]."

"It's just a matter of occupying a seat first. If you want to bring about this miracle, then the entire Terran regime cannot have hundreds of surnames, it can only be a dictatorship of one family."

The blond young man's sitting posture on the black leather chair was a little more upright. "It's not like no one has mentioned it in the past. Now among all the countries in Terra, which country or nation does not claim that its country is destiny from the heart and soul?" country?"

"Do we need to do anything?" Pansy Jane asked quickly.

"You don't have to do anything. This miracle announcement can't be achieved just by bragging. If they want to occupy the spot first, they can do so.

Oletin in the Far East and Daeva in the north act more arrogantly than the Edici Federation.

This [Destiny is Manifest] declares a vision on the kings of these two empires. If the Federation wants this miracle, it must first cut off the heads of the emperors of the Far East and the North. "Xia Xiu replied.

"They may really have this intention." The intelligence chief said.

"Then we have to see if they have the power."

Xia Xiu added another sentence, and then he began to pay attention to another important piece of information in the document.

"Regarding this information, what I care more about is the anchorage of Luyuan and the territorial purchase of Three Portlands by the Edici Federation."

"Do you think San Portland and Lu Yuan will agree?" the intelligence chief took over the words smoothly.

“With the three-Portland mayor-council model, the chances of passage would be very good.”

Xia Xiu recalled the content of the politics class he took when he was studying abroad in San Portland.

"The main supernatural academy in Sanbo City is the local Deer Academy. Deer Academy will not interfere with the parliamentary vote, so the possibility of Sanbo's annexation to the federation is more than 80%; however, Sanbo City is expected to retain a hand like the West Coast region. When Edisi national laws and constitution cannot protect the rights and interests of state (municipal) governments, which have the right to be independent from the federation."

"Understood." Pansy Jane nodded.

In the map tile of the Edici Federation, the District of Columbia, where the capital is located, and the autonomous states on the west coast have always been in a conjugated father-son state. They each think that they are each other's father. Now that the three Portlands are merged into the federation, this kind of relationship will also be combined. The conjugated parent-child state propagates.

The Edici Federation can announce to the outside world that it welcomes the incorporation of Three Portlands into the federal free land.

Sanbo City can also say this to the outside world, welcoming the federation to join the friendly family of Sanbo.

"The federation spent a lot of money to acquire Three Portlands. There must be an urgent need. Three Portlands will arrive in late March and early April..." Xia Xiu stretched out his index finger and pointed at the void.

Following his instructions, [Adam] responded quickly, and the surrounding air seemed to be injected with life, and layers of virtual projection curtains appeared in front of him out of thin air.

Rows of related information states are displayed on these projection curtains. Each information state represents different information and data. They are organized in an extremely efficient and intuitive way, waiting for the browsing and instructions of the fourth sword holder in heaven.

This information includes but is not limited to international developments, internal reports, intelligence analysis, and real-time news. Each piece of information is filtered and optimized by [Adam]'s advanced algorithm to ensure that Xia Xiu can obtain the most critical and latest information.

"It is indeed this thing." Xia Xiu's eyes moved quickly between the curtains, and soon he found the message he wanted.

"Hundreds of schools from all over the world compete for the hegemony cup."

Starting from the second half of 1591, the changes in the [Golden Tree] will completely reshape the competitive landscape among the schools participating in the Ivy War.

In this change, all the golden fragments will be broken again for the second time, which will inevitably lead to the transformation of the rules themselves into a series of scattered rule areas. These areas will become new competitive battlefields, containing important [Ivy Modification Values] ], these modifiers play a vital role in repairing the Golden Circle.

Most of these areas composed of fragmented rules are extremely fragile and cannot withstand the arrival of a thaumaturge of [Lord] level or above.

This limitation, coupled with the widespread distribution of fragments and the harshness of the completion conditions, makes these areas a competitive field among academic institutions dominated by academic research.

In this context, the Hundred Schools Competition Cup came into being. It was created to maintain healthy competition and academic exchanges among thaumaturgy schools.

The rules of the Hegemony Cup are strictly limited, prohibiting any thaumaturges above the third stage from participating, ensuring the fairness and safety of the competition.

This competition is only open to students in thaumaturgy schools. It aims to tap and cultivate the potential of young thaumaturgy practitioners, while also providing them with a platform to showcase their talents and academic achievements.

"The Edici Federation wants Luyuan to serve as a foreign aid?" Pansy Jian just glanced at the information and immediately understood the strategic policy of the Edici government.

"That's true." Xia Xiu nodded, "If you want to participate in the Ivy War, you must first have a hub or plane fragment as a [foundation], and on the [foundation] you must build a watering place for [gold] Twigs] and the [Ivy Completion Pool] that gains modifiers.”

"[Golden Branch Ya], this is easy to find. I'll go shopping outside and I should be able to find quite a few. The troublesome thing is the completion pool. According to what is currently circulating on the market, this thing is a first-level completion pool. It can only accommodate 1000 points of correction value, and to earn the correction value, you must do something that has positive feedback for the [Golden Tree] and the worlds. On the contrary, if you do something that harms the interests of the [Golden Tree] and the worlds, you will Will get distortion value."

Xia Xiu recalled in his mind the huge distortion value after Heaven Kingdom settled in the junction area, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Fortunately, the [Golden Tree] did not dare to offend the Kingdom of Heaven too much, so it still left an opening for the Administration and Hell's Kitchen to allow the Kingdom of Heaven to participate.

It's just that in this poor and useless place, everything still needs to be established step by step by him, the director.

"Clear Hell's Kitchen of all trespassers before April."

Xia Xiu's words were like the cold wind in winter, with a biting coldness.

"The Third House of Heaven must be established within half a year."

Order must be reestablished, and the will of heaven will once again expand outward through his hand.

Destiny is clear.

The countries of Terra are not the only ones who like this word and this miracle.

***********

As night falls, the intersection of 48th Street and Ninth Avenue is shrouded in dim light, becoming a gathering point for task force members about to launch operations.

Pfft——

This is the sound of the rabbit mechanical butler turning off the projection.

This action seemed to be a signal, marking the official start of the task force's operation.

"Are the preparations for the ceremony complete?"

The Moon Rabbit stood at this junction, and her figure changed significantly the moment the projection turned off. The respectful attitude when communicating with the Administration through the projection disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a calm and firm temperament.

The expression on her face turned cold, and she exuded an unquestionable sense of leadership.

"It's over." Zero Forty, who was in charge of interrogating the goblin merchant just now, replied.

"Let's go." The Moon Rabbit nodded.

The surrounding members of the raid team heard the Moon Rabbit's instructions, and they all moved closer to her and stood around her.

Entering the Whispering Square requires a special ceremony called the "Whispering Gate Opening Ceremony".

This ritual combines elements of occultism and occultism and is the only way to the Whispering Square hidden between reality and fantasy.

The ritual requires four elements: a bottle filled with moonlight, an unlit spark, a stone soaked in night mist, and a jewel condensed from dreams.

These elements symbolize water, fire, earth, and wind, and must be arranged according to specific rules before the ceremony.

Participants stood around the magic circle, holding the collected elements, and chanted ancient mantras together.

The content of the spell is a plea to the power of the plane to open a passage to the Whispering Square.

In the center of the circle, the four elements are placed on the ground in turn and ignited with ghost fire (a mysterious smokeless flame).

The flames will change into different colors, indicating that the ritual is being accepted by the power of the plane.

When all elements have been consecrated and the ghost fire has burned to its highest point, the ritual participant is asked to close their eyes and chant the incantation again.

As the final sound of the spell dissipates, a breeze blows by, and when participants open their eyes, they will find themselves at the entrance to the Whispering Square.

This is the entire content of the "Youyu Opening Ceremony".

At this moment, the Moon Rabbit, led by her team members, came to the arranged ceremony place and began to perform the ceremony step by step.

When all the elements were sacrificed and the ghost fire, which symbolized the power of the plane, appeared, the Moon Rabbit nodded slightly to the commando team captains. The team members exchanged a firm look with each other, and then almost At the same time, everyone took out a small container from their compact capsule device - [Concealed Spectrum Mimu Potion].

The light-opaque agent is a capsule series developed by Hugh Abraham, the director of the Authority. The following is all the relevant information about this agent.

————

Capsule Collection-001.

The opaque agent uses a highly compact storage device made of nanotechnology, which can maintain the stability and purity of the agent in a miniaturized size. The casing is made of biodegradable materials, ensuring that no trace is left behind once the job is complete.

This potion has three modes in total.

One-third dose (subliminal state of awareness): After injection, the operator's presence in reality is greatly reduced and he is able to move freely among the crowd without attracting attention. Suitable for reconnaissance and infiltration missions.

Two-thirds dose (quasi-invisible state): After injection, the operator is nearly invisible and may only be noticed when making conspicuous movements. Suitable for approaching or bypassing enemy defenses.

Full Dose (Selfless State): After injection, the operator enters a state almost removed from reality, even performing tasks in front of the enemy's eyes without being noticed. However, this state is extremely dangerous and may cause the operator to permanently disappear from reality.

Time limit: Inject the full dose and the effect lasts only three minutes. Failure to buffer after a timeout will result in serious backlash effects.

Buffering agent: A buffering agent specially designed for the light-hiding agent, which can quickly restore the operator's sense of presence when the three-minute effect ends and prevent the backlash of Memu.

The Director of the Administration recommends that specific Memu resistance training be conducted before use to reduce the risk of backlash. Choose the appropriate dose and precisely control it according to task requirements. Start timing immediately after watching the full dose, making sure to complete the task and inject the buffering agent within three minutes.

Precautions:

Operators should be especially careful when using the full dose to avoid prolonged periods of selflessness that may prevent them from returning to reality.

It should only be used when necessary to avoid irreversible effects on the operator's psychology and body.

————

The essence of the light-hiding agent is the part of the Mimu pathogenic body that Xia Xiu divided and diluted from his crown-level [weakened sense of presence].

The reason why the goblin merchants did not discover the Moon Rabbit and others earlier was because they had all been injected with one-third of the dose of light-hiding agent and entered a subliminal state of awareness.

Just now, the assault team relied on the subliminal state of awareness to follow the goblin merchants along the route. This burial team, hand-made by Xia Xiu, has inherited his fine tradition.

Now, all the commandos, including the Moon Rabbit, quickly aimed the medicine at their necks and inserted it gently. The operation was both fast and accurate.

After the injection was completed, each team member began to look at the one-third dosage instruction in the medicine container, and silently put it back into his own capsule.

The burning ghost fire in front has burned to its highest point.

All participants began to recite the incantation themselves, accompanied by a low incantation.

The pylorus is open.

Hula——

The end of the spell dissipated, a breeze blew by, and everyone disappeared in place, as if they had never appeared.

After the ceremony is completed, the magic circle and all traces of the Youyu Opening Ceremony will automatically disappear, as if they never existed.

***********

Hub block·Whispering Square.

Magic fountain area.

When the Moon Rabbit and her team members completed the mysterious ceremony of the Whispering Opening Ceremony, they slowly opened their eyes and found that they were already in a completely different environment - the center of the Whispering Square.

Before the Youyu opening ceremony, she and the team members had been pre-injected with one-third of the dose of light-hiding agent. At this moment, their presence in reality has been greatly reduced, as if they have blended into the surrounding environment, even if they are standing In a noisy crowd, it won't attract anyone's attention.

Therefore, although they are now standing in the bustling trading center of Whispering Square, surrounded by traders and explorers of different races from all planes, these aliens are not aware of their

When the Moon Rabbit stepped into the Whispering Square, her eyes were first attracted by the magic fountain located in the center of the square.

This fountain exudes a soft and mysterious light. The water droplets jump in the air, reflecting the moonlight, showing a variety of dreamy colors, adding an indescribable magic to the entire square.

However, just as she was about to get closer and take a closer look, a huge, polluting word came into her eyes - "No humans or dogs allowed".

The Moon Rabbit's brows furrowed involuntarily, and she shifted her gaze from the fountain to the nearby pedestrians.

All around, the bustling alien traders and explorers formed an active and colorful picture.

Elves, dwarves, half-elves, goblins and other fantasy races shuttle around the fountain. They are talking or trading, and everyone is busy with their own affairs.

These aliens wear a variety of costumes, some gorgeous, some simple, but each one has strong cultural characteristics and magical atmosphere, filling the entire square with a strange and charming atmosphere.

Next to the magic fountain, some shops display all kinds of rare treasures, shining with alluring light.

These precious items attract customers from all over the world, who bargain around the stalls, and every transaction is accompanied by the power of magic and contract.

Everything in the Whispering Square is harmonious.

The Moon Rabbit stared at the fountain and the bustling aliens around it for a long time. Then, she easily took out a seemingly ordinary small capsule from her device. With a press of her hand, the capsule immediately deformed and the materials reorganized, quickly forming a pure white mask in her hand.

This mask is simple and elegant, without any decoration and without strings or any obvious fasteners.

However, when the Moon Rabbit gently placed it on her face, the mask seemed to be attracted by invisible forces and automatically fit tightly on her face. It adapted perfectly to the shape of her face, as if it were tailor-made, without any discomfort.

As the mask is put on, a subtle transformation begins to occur. The surface of the mask began to glow with layers of luster, as if it were alive. Soon its shape changed, gradually customizing into the shape of a rabbit. This rabbit mask is not only lifelike, but also extremely exquisite in detail. From the long ears to the slight wrinkles at the tip of the nose, every detail shows superb craftsmanship.

The other commandos also took out white masks and put them on their faces in the same way, but the patterns of their transformed masks were all kinds of strange.

This is Capsule Series 022 - [Custom Mask].

In the eyes of Moon Rabbit, 022 is the same as capsule series 021 [Kaomoji Mask], giving people a very tasteless feeling.

But since the director put it in the capsule series, he naturally has deep intentions. It can be used with the light-hiding agent to install a wave of aliens in the Whispering Plaza.

Anyway, their bodies are injected with a third of the light-hiding agent. In this state, when greeting foreigners, it is difficult for them to notice that they are human beings.
