The Special Interrogation Bureau.
The new director, Xie Biqi, was looking at the reports with a headache.
"In the past week, more than ten tunnels have appeared across the country, causing hundreds of casualties … Seven members of the Special Forces have died, and one player has died."
The Special Task Force consisted of non-player Transcendents. Basically, their cultivation and resources could only be provided by players.
It was precisely because of this that they were used as cannon fodder in battles, and their casualties were much higher than the players'.
Ever since the emergence of the otherworld passage, the number of casualties had exceeded a thousand!
Basically, the batch of students that Shen Mo had led could be said to have been completely wiped out. There was no longer any influence left.
The loss of the players was even more heart-wrenching.
After all, ever since the Liberty Wings had been established, the number of useful tools had dwindled.
On the other hand, the developers of Game In A Different World were slow to increase the number of players, causing the number of official players to decrease with each death.
"What's more troublesome is the situation in the game world. The Green Province has become the base camp of the Nine Prefectures Alliance. Not only that … Martial artists and Taoist priests have infiltrated the various Novice Villages. Some have even directly broken into the resurrection points and come to our world."
The Beginner Village's Resurrection Plaza was too big, and its defenses were too weak.
It would be easier for a Daoist priest to sneak in.
Needless to say, there was also a resurrection point in Qingzhou that was controlled by the natives.
"Fortunately … after accumulating power for so long, I can launch a counterattack, wipe out the Nine States Union of the Green State in one fell swoop, and quell the chaos in the passageway!"
Xie Biqi mumbled and looked at the door of the office.
It was unknown when a person had been standing there. Although it was only a silhouette, it was as lofty as a mountain.
"Lin Fan, you've finally reached Rank-1 …"
Xie Biqi applauded, "With you and the Liberty Wings, I am very sure that I can take down the Nine States Union! Other than that, there's something more important that I need you for! "
Lin Fan, on the other hand, did not look excited at all. With the legacy of the Holy Immortals and Buddhas, he was far stronger than other experts of the same level after breaking through.
He was confident that he could take down a few Rank-1 martial artists and even Taoist priests!
"Yes, I also want to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Our world has already suffered too much …"
Lin Fan said.
In truth, the Grand Xia Empire was better off.
In foreign countries, some small countries that had no way to deal with the Otherworld Passage were truly miserable.
In fact, the Heavenly Law Alliance's headquarters were suspected to be overseas, and they would even provide support.
If it weren't for the determination of Grand Xia and the Celestial Circle Alliance to encircle and annihilate them, they might have supported a few foreign countries to play with.
"Rank 1 Martial Artist — Spirit Suppressing Realm! You can control everything about yourself, even your spirit! "
Xie Biqi took a deep breath and said, "Since that's the case, there are some things that I can tell you now."
She pressed a hidden button on her desk, and a bookshelf moved aside, revealing a passage.
Lin Fan was bold and he followed them in. He realized that it was an elevator.
The elevator descended all the way to an unimaginable depth.
"The security here is the highest in the Agency of Special Investigations!"
"Even some senior captains might not know that there's another floor below our headquarters."
Xie Biqi said, "Any researcher who enters this place must be isolated from the outside world. Even I have to perform a certain psychological suggestion every time I enter … Of course, you don't have to."
Lin Fan nodded and watched as Xie Biqi opened the elevator door and entered a laboratory.
"What kind of experiments have you been doing?"
He asked curiously.
"We've been tracking down the mastermind behind the game, or should I say … that god!"
Xie Biqi's voice became extremely serious. "And now, we've just made a breakthrough!"
"Tell me, is it appropriate?"
Lin Fan wasn't surprised at all. It would be strange if the Agency of Special Investigations didn't pursue the game development team.
He was just curious as to why Xie Biqi was so confident in him, a member of Liberty Wings.
"Because you're the strongest force we have. At the same time, we need you to cooperate with us in our experiments!"
Xie Biqi instructed a white-clothed researcher. The other party quickly took out a tablet, clicked on it, and played a video.
The video seemed to be of a villa district.
Xie Biqi was leaving with her team members.
"What were you doing there?"
Lin Fan asked curiously.
"I went to look for the game's official website … At first, I thought I would find nothing, but later I realized … the clues were there all along, just that we couldn't see them."
Xie Biqi sighed. "And now, tell me, how many people are there in the video?"
"Two, you and one of your subordinates." Lin Fan glanced at it again and answered with certainty.
A look of disappointment appeared on Xie Biqi's face. "A first-grade martial artist at the Deity Suppressing realm can completely control one's mind. They won't be affected by any illusions or mental attacks … but you still can't see them?"
"What do you mean?" Lin Fan was confused.
"What if I tell you … there's a third person in the video?"
Xie Biqi's expression suddenly became extremely strange. "There's a power that's affecting us … just like how it affected the upper echelons of the various countries, making them ignore 'The Other World of Game' … whether it's the location of the server or the mastermind, they're all around us, just that we can't see them …"
"You mean …"
Lin Fan sucked in a breath of cold air. "The third person back then is the mastermind?"
"At the very least, the other party must have grasped the key clues."
Xie Biqi nodded.
"But … there's nothing in the video!"
Lin Fan scratched his head. "Even if our senses can be deceived, can the mechanical senses be deceived as well?"
Of course, that was impossible. Machines didn't have a mind of their own, so they didn't have the concept of being deceived.
"The machine isn't deceived. It's just that the video we see isn't the real video … or rather, as long as it's a 'human', it will always be affected and ignore the abnormalities in the video, even if it's taken by a machine … Alpha!"
Xie Biqi suddenly called out a name.
"Esteemed director, Alpha is at your service!"
A mechanical voice suddenly sounded out from the tablet.
"This is the latest generation of artificial intelligence. Of course, you can also call it an artificial retard!" Xie Biqi said. "It's precisely because it's a retard, or rather, can't be considered a human. That's why it seems to be able to bypass some restrictions … for example, find me the square!"
She pulled up a picture, and the square pattern was quickly circled by a red line.
"Count, how many people are in this graduation photo?"
"54!"
After a series of tests, Lin Fan also understood that this' Alpha 'was indeed an artificial retard. Slightly more difficult instructions would cause it to make mistakes.
But it was still possible to simply count the number of people in the picture.
"Now … tell me, how many people are in the picture?"
Xie Biqi pulled up the video from earlier.
"3!"
The mechanical voice answered.
Lin Fan suddenly felt his hair standing on end!
