Chapter 1268 No. 175: A busy start (Silver Alliance extra update 1/10)

[Expectations: It was inconvenient to speak up at that time, but now that I have the opportunity, I am still very happy that you can put aside the past and are willing to believe in Wishdale's ability [smile]]

[Moon Ring Snake: You are too kind. Rather than saying that I am willing to believe in her ability, I can see that you have always been optimistic about her. In other words, I believe in your vision.]

[Hopeful Convergence: But you have also collected intelligence on her, right? Just like Tracy said, if this is a test, the work you entrusted to her is a bit too heavy.]

【Moon Ring Snake: Indeed, I have seen the records about her.

That commendable destructive power is also part of the basis for trust, but the most recent records are only half a year ago.

Half a year, think about how much could have happened in half a year. If it weren’t for your attitude, I would still be skeptical about her.]

[Gathering of Hopes: Attitude... I suddenly feel burdened with such a heavy weight [Trouble]]

[Moon Ring Snake: It won’t be too heavy [smile]
When it comes to other people's escape routes, I won't just arrange a plan that has hidden dangers.]

[Expectations: Can I tell the child? ]

[Moon Ring Snake: Can I thank you for your help back then? That was a very good look.]

[Qi Ji Zhi Hui: I don’t understand what you are saying [sticking out tongue]]

[Moon Ring Snake: Indeed, that is a matter of insignificance [sticking out tongue]]

[Expectations: ...Mr. Omer, you love stealing other people's emoticons too much]

[Moon Ring Snake: No, I just copied it on the spot, I didn’t collect it. But your emoticon package surprised me a little.]

[Expectations: Is this a surprise? [Surprised]]

[Moon Ring Snake: It’s not a bad thing]

I just think that maybe this lady should be more calm and mature, instead of expressing emotions in such unconventional ways as sticking out the tongue or being surprised.

However, such online contrast is a good thing as long as it does not appear in any serious work chat room, just like Miura Bourbon, who always has a poker face under Omer.

Offline, she is even more expressionless than Tresia, and her online emoticon groupings are more mixed than anyone else's, but at least she didn't include the dragon pictures that Akane and Hayabusa always post, so this can be called a cute contrast.

In comparison, Miss Theresa obviously gives people a more ideal impression, but before that, Omar would be amused and confused by her acting stupid.

It was she who clearly showed her intention to recommend, and it was she who put on a worried and hesitant look at the right time to make Wishdale waver, giving herself a chance to reverse her image. However, there were very few people who could see this micro-manipulation, especially when they still had preconceived notions, so even Miss Wishdale didn't notice it.

Perhaps her subconscious mind rejected the possibility of being sold out in disguise, and she firmly believed that His Highness, who had been the most resistant to tricks and schemes, would not have such a petty thought.

But in Omer's view, the subjective will presented in all these details is clearly visible.

It was almost to the point where he had to consider that ignoring it might lower the other party's psychological expectations.

So he did not ignore it and took advantage of the situation to promote the cooperation, which also left an image of a person who used both soft and hard methods to achieve his goals in Wishdale's mind.

But in fact……

He didn't care much about W, and he did this step just to complete the test thrown by Theresa.

Interpersonal communication is a science. Some people see it as simple, while others find it complicated. Omar is undoubtedly following the latter approach, investing in each other with Theresa. The latter gave him this opportunity, which will lay the foundation for future cooperation, and he is holding on to the opportunity in anticipation of the resources that the power level represented by the latter can give back.

But this does not mean that Wishdale is an unlucky guy who is not involved.

After all, as Omer said, Theresa was very optimistic about her.

This is not only an opportunity for Omer to perform, but also an opportunity for Wishdale to perform externally.

In fact, from her expertise in blasting technology, it is not difficult to see that Miss Dabuliao has many opportunities to display her expertise, but not in the base.

But she always follows Theresa.

Even when Xiao Te was running around for academic exchanges some time ago, W was really performing security work. And because there were no attacks, in the eyes of Teacher Da Te, the only significance of W was to pull blood pressure.

Although the parties involved were generally indifferent, Omar understood Miss Theresa's good intentions as both a mother and a sister. He even thought that he should learn this subtlety.

It is clear that Eastern culture attaches the most importance to this theory, but Miss Shu's attitude towards the family is so straightforward and outspoken that she has a bit of the boldness of Miss Nian.

But obviously, if Omar said this, it would seem that he did not know how to be subtle.

In addition, you must bear the consequences of not understanding.

It can only be said that there is a reason why implicitness is directly associated with playing dumb in Eastern culture, and Omer's cultural flexibility always allows him to seamlessly fit in the range he needs.

So he quickly ended his conversation with Theresa and turned to reveal the progress reports from both Quetzalcoatl and Demon Serpent.

As for the escape route that we have just prepared for both parties today... that kind of ending plan that can easily affect work enthusiasm is not suitable to be revealed at the beginning of the work.

Especially when the results are mixed in the early stages of work.

Miss Holhaiya has already listed a PDF file, while Guishe's side is still just fragmentary pure information reports. It seems that he is still doing errands for Luzas and waiting to be summoned by his superiors.

Do you really need to speed up?

Even Ghost Snake himself thought so. At the end of the message, he asked when he could take action. At first glance, it seemed like he was in a hurry to fight a decisive battle with the aliens.

Actually?

In fact, it is asking about the timing and location of controlling the monster to destroy the city.

This involves the self-torture tactic that Omer mentioned casually when he first decided to let Ghost Snake infiltrate Luzas.

In order to speed up the process of Snake being valued by Luzas, let him summon and control monsters to cause destruction, and then be severely suppressed by Omer and Zero - by then, the situation of Snake being defeated by Ultraman will surely make many aliens in Luzas recall the scene. As long as they prove their determination and strength, they can probably speed up the process of gaining trust.

The tactic of inflicting pain on one's self is an inevitable part of espionage activities, especially for a guy like Ghost Snake whose intelligence background is transparent. If he wants to gain trust, he has to use some ruthless means.

But Omar also knows that reality is not as ideal as special effects dramas.

Ordinary self-torture tactics cannot achieve trust, and overly cruel self-torture tactics will test the determination of the participants. Does Ghost Snake have such determination?

If it was Omar, this was the decision he made and he could have done it himself, but for Guishe it was just a job.

Demon Snake doesn't care about the safety of Umamusume, nor does he care about the situation in the horse racing world. He also doesn't care about Ultraman other than Geed and Zero. At first glance, he can be used to make some articles in the end, but you don't even know their ultimate goal. How can you have the nerve to deceive Zero and others that they are in danger, this matter is very serious, and ask him to make some sacrifices?

Not to mention whether his moral standards are acceptable, even if he really disregards morality, it would be difficult for Omar to fabricate an alternative pie that can fool people for a long time in the absence of sufficient intelligence.

So he didn't mention it afterwards, but instead looked for other information and came up with a more gentle plan to have Ghost Snake be found by Luzas's men.

But obviously, with Ghost Snake's stealth capabilities, the result of gentle joining was slow progress, so slow that even he himself was dissatisfied and mentioned the self-torture tactic.

Since you brought it up yourself, I won't hold back.

——A demon cannot make such a decision.

Plans involving personal safety always have to be considered with great caution. Just like although he trusts Theresa's vision and has read Vishdale's combat information, he still has to prepare a backup plan.

As long as there are uncertainties, you cannot and should not risk your life, especially the lives of your subordinates.

But perhaps, an abandoned case is not impossible to use... Seeing the other party bring up the matter again after a few days, Omar realized for a moment that he should not be as stiff and slow as Miss Wishdale.

There is no need to worry about whether the self-torture tactic is cruel or not. After all, no one has ever limited the tactic to be used only once, right?

If quality is not enough, you can make up for it with quantity.

When the "conspiracy" of the ghost snake was thwarted time and time again, so many times that it made people sad and cry, how many people would care that he had not been seriously injured in the physical sense?

At 2024:6 on the evening of June 9, 22, Gu Xinxuan was rewarded as a silver ally by the leader Li TianX because of his boasting. He owed ten more chapters and might die unnatural deaths before the release of the Magic Ring DLC.

This is a mistake made at such a young age, a wake-up call!
PS:

There was a paragraph at the end of the previous chapter that was a fragment of something written in an abandoned draft. Somehow it got mixed into the published chapter and has been deleted.
