Chapter 675 Security Measures
Because he needed to pay attention to the progress of the flying battleship project, Perfect stayed in Beloberg temporarily.

And her residence was naturally the hotel owned by the Brandelis family.

She booked an entire floor at the top of the hotel as her temporary residence. The maid doll and self-disciplined knight around the Earl of the North were naturally indispensable.

There was even a team of autonomous knights in flying armor and an airship deployed on the roof of the hotel to defend against possible air attacks and to escort Perfectot directly away from the air when necessary.

"This is a completely unnecessary security measure. Do you really think someone would fly an airship into the sky above Beloberg and raid this hotel from the air?" Perfect was helpless. Although she did not reject necessary security measures, this overly exaggerated arrangement still made her feel disgusted.

However, the old butler who was in charge of arranging all this said confidently: "Miss, these measures are not meant to really work. Although these arrangements must play their due role when necessary, they are more to highlight your status and avoid unnecessary trouble."

In the old butler's opinion, these measures did seem exaggerated, but they were very necessary for Perfect's identity.

"Okay, okay! I have no intention of arguing about this. Let Mr. James come up. I want to know what exactly needs him to see me so urgently." Perfect waved his hand, but his eyes were looking at a long-lost agent who was stopped by the guards at the hotel entrance.

Although Perfectcot only booked the top floor of the hotel, in order to prevent outsiders from disturbing Perfectcot, guards and sentries were still deployed at the entrance of the hotel, and all passengers entering and leaving the hotel had to undergo strict inspection.

This is why Perfect feels these security measures are necessary.

She didn't mind strict security checks, but it was enough for the floor where she lived to have strict checks. There was no need to set up guards even at the hotel entrance.

This made her look less like the Earl of the North and more like Queen Victoria.

"Yes, miss." The old butler then turned and left, heading to the main entrance of the hotel to bring James in.

..............................

At the entrance of the hotel, James was being questioned by the guard at the door.

The inspection was so detailed and rigorous that even James, a veteran agent, could not help but be amazed at the tight organization and sophisticated business practices of the Northern intelligence agencies.

As an agent arranged by the Imperial Military Intelligence Agency in the New World colonies, James himself possesses quite good agent skills.

Although he is not as exaggerated as the legendary agents in the film and television works of Perfect's original world, with the extraordinary abilities and alchemical creations unique to this world, he can also do similar things to his counterparts in the other world.

However, even so, with his vision as a veteran agent, he could hardly find a way to bypass these security measures and sneak into the hotel.

It goes without saying that the guards and checkpoints at the main entrance of the hotel are just decorations for the old agents. Although their inspections are very strict, they can only stop ordinary people and petty thieves. It is not difficult for professionals to get past them.

But after crossing this line of defense, the real test begins.

After the old butler appeared at the main entrance of the hotel and welcomed James into the hotel, the old agent always felt like a thorn in his back, as if someone was always watching him, and he could clearly feel that he was being locked by some weapon.

This was a special ability of an alchemical creation on him, which allowed him to sense whether he was being stared at by hostility or gazes, and whether there was any danger around him. As a result, no matter how he simulated and tried, he could not get rid of this shadow-like lock, as if he was a clown performing on the stage, and the audience below was watching him.

James could feel that he was being targeted by the secret sentries in the hotel and the steam knights stationed throughout the hotel.

If he dared to make any unusual movement or engage in any dangerous behavior, he would be beaten to a pulp in a matter of seconds.

"If you dare to mess around, I don't need them, I will chop off your head the first time." However, the old butler spoke at this time, and James suddenly realized that the old butler in front of him, who looked like an ordinary old man, was actually a powerful knight who had been promoted to a legend.

"Does the Earl also need such strict protection in the North?" James asked the old butler frankly.

"Maybe it is necessary, maybe not, but there is nothing that is unnecessary to protect the young lady." The old butler responded calmly, and then took James into the elevator guarded by guards.

This hotel is fifteen stories high, which is a very tall building in that era.

So the hotel installed several elevators, which was a very new and fashionable thing in that era.

In order to ensure Perfect's safety, all elevators in the hotel were controlled and the elevator doors on the top floor were all locked. No one could take the elevator directly to the top floor where Perfect was located.

The old butler took James by elevator to the bottom floor of the top floor, where they both underwent another thorough inspection and body search.

"Mr. Foster, you are the Earl's butler. Do you also have to undergo such a strict inspection?" James looked at the inspectors who conducted an extremely detailed body search on the old butler without any hesitation, and immediately showed a curious look.

In his opinion, it is natural for this security system to defend against outsiders, but there is no need to guard against one's own people, right?

However, the old butler just turned around and glanced at him, then said casually, "If someone pretends to be me, it will become a fatal loophole, so no one can be an exception."

"What terrible security!" James exclaimed. Although disguise sounds exaggerated, it is still within the skill range of the old agent.

If necessary, James could disguise himself as another person in half an hour without any alchemy or other supernatural powers.

This was also the only way he could think of to safely enter the hotel after seeing the hotel's strict security measures.

But his target was certainly not the old butler, but the ordinary guests or staff in the hotel. As long as he obtained a legal identity, it would not be difficult for him to sneak in.

But the old butler's move, even to guard himself strictly, really opened James' eyes. Is there anyone who would take such a measure as to check even his own people?
But he didn't care too much about it. After all, he was just simulating out of professional habit whether he could successfully sneak into the hotel and reach Perfectcot, and he didn't really have any ideas.

After following the old butler up a flight of stairs, James finally saw Perfecto who was sipping tea.
