In the Wildenstein Building in Atlanta, Conxiuli Wildenstein was busy handling the documents in his hands while asking, "Damon, I guess it should be good news, right? You are in high spirits, and your mood is very relaxed. "
He guessed that this good news must be related to Li Mochen, who had already gone to Berlin in the Old Continent. But at this time, he did not even intend to raise his head.
This was because the aftermath of this war was too heavy.
For example, the compensation for the casualties, the compensation for the damage to private houses, the further actions against the National Association of Progressives, the negotiation with the government, the business strategies adopted by the group and family after the war, and so on were all within his responsibilities.
Now, not only did he need to be responsible for the Wildenstein Group, but he also needed to take care of Li Mochen's Xuri Construction.
"It is indeed good news."
Conxiuli's assistant, Nante Damon, stopped in front of his desk. "But I believe that after you hear it, you will also feel a headache."
"Oh?"
Conxiuli raised his head and looked at Nante Damon. He realized that Nante Damon was indeed smiling. Although it was not a bright smile, it was very different from Damon's usual calm and indifferent expression.
This made Conxiuli feel slightly relieved. He thought that as long as it was not bad news, it would be fine.
"Tell me about it. I think he must have gotten back the Blood Crown?"
"Yes, Mr. CEO."
Nante Damon nodded and then said in a cold voice, "But other than that, Mr. Wildenstein Jr. also killed Great Templar Bernie Madigan and Cardinal Kelsey Cook. Also, he snatched the Holy Lance Longinus from the Vatican. "
"Snatched the Holy Lance Longinus? Damon, is this true? Are you sure? "
Sure enough, Kang Xiuli felt a terrible headache. He immediately let out a groan and pressed his forehead. Then he subconsciously wanted to ask, how did Li Mochen do it?
He was already very happy that the latter could obtain the Blood Crown in the Old Continent and even escape unscathed.
But the Holy Lance Longinus — this did not make Conxiuli happy. Instead, he felt frightened.
However, he immediately thought that instead of asking Nante Diamond about this, it would be better for him to see the details of the battle himself. He had people stationed in Berlin a long time ago, and they had been monitoring the Teutonic National Museum. They should be able to provide him with detailed information.
If it was not possible, Temur Hegel, the 'Highest Shadow' of the Teuton Republic, was his best friend. This person would definitely be able to give him a complete image.
Kang Xiuli pressed a button on his desk and called the director of the CEO's office. "Betty, can you collect the documents I signed and send them back? The situation has changed. I need to make some changes. "
Damon, who was on the other side, understood and said, "The power of the Radiant Church is no longer as strong as it was a few centuries ago. This is especially true in America. "
"But we still have to guard against them. They are still the religion with the most followers in the world. I bet that by tomorrow at the latest, the Holy See will call on their believers to boycott our Wildenstein Group. Even the New Stream and the Eastern Orthodox Church will help them. They have the same goal when it comes to protecting the glory of the God of Light. "
Kang Xiuli shook his head. "I only hope that the Church will consider the consequences and not label André as a heretic."
"Not likely!"
Damon said thoughtfully. "I think Mr. Wildenstein Jr.'s power is not something that the old church can handle. Even if they really dare to do so, it might not be a bad thing. "
Kang Xiuli did not refute this point of view. He made another call. It was from the current chief deacon of the family's elder council, Della Wildenstein.
"Have you heard the news from the Old Continent? Is this good news? Stop joking, Della. The situation will be very troublesome. Anyway, the situation in the family needs you to calm them down — "
Della Wildenstein's reply was low and hoarse, but it lacked calmness. "Understood! Understood! I will restrain the children of the family and tell them to stay put and not cause trouble. We'll just have to hide our heads and be turtles for a while and be happy in secret for a while. Yes, this is a little difficult, but I will try my best. You don't know, if those guys know about this, they will be very happy. The Hohenstaufen finally took revenge on the Church, and our vice president, our young leader, is about to become one of the most powerful gods in the world. You are right, Kang Xiuli. He is indeed the best of Wildenstein's generation. He is the hope of our whole family. I am really glad that I have always been on your side and supported you — "
Kang Xiuli had enough of this person's incoherent and incessant chatter. He hung up and asked Damon, "Now, do you know where André is?"
"He should have gone to the East! At that time, there was a demigod wizard who happened to sense his trajectory after he tore open space. "
Damon said this with some hesitation. "In the battle at the Teuton National Museum, Mr. Wildenstein Jr. used the Kongtong Seal. That is a mythical weapon created by the ancient emperor of the East, Zhuanxu. It is on the same level as the complete Sacred Lance of Longinus. "
How could Kang Xiuli not know about the Kongtong Seal? He stared blankly for a moment, then a look of understanding flashed through his eyes. Then, he bitterly laughed, "Let him be, this is his business."
He turned his attention to the front again. "If I am not wrong, there must be a lot of calls coming in now, right?"
In fact, after the battle in the City of Atlanta ended, several of his landlines and mobile phones were about to explode. Kang Xiuli was busy, so he could only choose to let his assistant and secretary answer the calls. He was prepared to choose the more important people to call back when he was free.
However, Kang Xiuli guessed that the number of calls now was not on the same level as before.
"Before, it was already more popular than you can imagine. All the lines have been busy. I had to borrow more than a dozen people from the Public Relations Department to temporarily open 24 lines, but I think it is not enough. The news from Berlin will definitely shock the entire mysterious world in the next hour. The same is true for the CEO's office of Xuri Construction. Half an hour ago, Elisa asked me to tell you that it is better for you to take some time as soon as possible to help Mr. Wildenstein Jr., or to find him. As for now — "
Damon shrugged. "The White House just called again. This is the third time today. I said that you are busy recently. Boss, you should be planning to leave the other side hanging, right? "
Kang Xiuli didn't say anything. He fell into deep thought again.
At this time, in the Oval Office of the Abraham White House, the President, who was sitting behind the desk, frowned and looked at a middle-aged woman who pushed the door open and entered.
It was a woman wearing a small white suit. She was neat and capable, fashionable and elegant. This was his new Chief of Staff, Carolyn Weimar.
"The call went through, but just like the previous two times, Old Wildenstein is very busy and has no time to spare."
"So busy that he can't find time to answer the President's call?"
Loren Cardellan, who was sitting in the corner, sneered. The former Chief of Staff of the White House, the current National Assistant of the President, had a sharp tone.
"It was after the war in Atlanta. Although it is understandable, I also feel that the President despises the White House."
"Mr. President, the Wildenstein family is already the most powerful family in America and the whole world. Andre Lee Wildenstein is also one of the most powerful people today, including several Gods. Their alliance with the Light and Magic Industry is currently indestructible. "
National Security Advisor Jaxon Richard said calmly, "Mr. President, you must tolerate their unruliness, just like you tolerated Morgan and Rockefeller, tolerated the Illuminati and the Protestants. The governance of this country needs their cooperation. "
"For example, Nanette Drew of Rising Sun Media."
Director of National Intelligence Wade Steward gave an example. "I know that woman's character. If the Wildenstein family does not restrain her, she will have no scruples. All the scandals of the Civic Party may become her target. She does not need to care about anyone now, and no one can do anything to her. And their Biochemical Prosthetics — "
"I know! I know! But I still find it hard to accept. "
The President sat down with a sigh and then spread his hands. "This is incredible, isn't it? In just one night, the Wildenstein family has become one of the most powerful families in America. Then less than two hours later, you tell me that Andre Lee Wildenstein defeated half of the Vatican in Berlin and seized the Sacred Lance of Longinus. We have to take an appropriate stance and show respect for the existence of the Wildenstein family. Are you sure what happened in Berlin is true? I feel that it is a fantasy. The Vatican is so powerful, but they actually lost to him. If this is true, then to this world, it is undoubtedly a grenade thrown into a small iron basin — "
"I can understand how you feel now, Mr. President, but that kind of image is not something that just anyone can forge. You saw it with your own eyes, didn't you? It was true that a Cardinal and a Templar Master had died in battle. The Sacred Lance of Longinus of the Vatican was seized, and there is no doubt about it. "
National Mage Envoy Ragia Barkley shook his head. "They are undoubtedly an important part of this world."
At this moment, there was another knock on the door of the Oval Office. Then, a well-dressed secretary pushed the door open and entered. "Sir, Mr. Wildenstein called back. He asked if you were free to answer the call. He also said that he was very sorry. "
The President immediately perked up. He reached for the phone and signaled to the people in front of him with his eyes. He did not intend to communicate with Mr. Wildenstein in front of so many people.
"Right, regarding Richard's proposal to confer the title of Honorary National Mage to the two Mr. Wildenstein's, I agree. Weimar, help me contact the whips of the two parties later and have them push this matter forward as soon as possible. This cannot be delayed — "
At the same time, in Chicago, after a video conference involving three families ended, an old man closed his eyes with a pained expression.
"See if you can contact Old Wildenstein through Professor Constantine's channels. I remember a long time ago, he owed us a small favor. Now it is time for him to repay us. We need peace, and we need to reach a truce with the Wildenstein family as soon as possible. He is the best mediator. "
"Isn't this too hasty? It will bring shame to the Violet family's name. "
At the bottom of the conference table, someone immediately expressed an objection. "The Vatican will not let this go. They will definitely plan a counterattack. This is our chance."
"And then? Let the glorious Mattiola family become pawns and soldiers of the Vatican? Fight to the death for the glory of the Lord? "
The old man asked sarcastically, "That is a living god who can go head to head with the King of Angels and is not bound by the treaty of human and god! Do you really want the Mattiola Family to turn into ashes under the wrath of this one? "
The entire conference room could not help but fall into a dead silence.
At this time, even the opposition was not willing to face the current Wildenstein family head-on. The previous speech was only out of resentment and unwillingness.
"You must accept the reality. That family is already above the Violet family. They are an existence that we cannot compete with. You must tell the children and women of the family that in all social occasions in the future, they must show enough respect to the members of the Wildenstein family or avoid them. "
The old man's eyes were also filled with unwillingness and helplessness. "Also, inform the National Association of Progressives that our family will withdraw from this organization. Also, the Beastblood Warrior project must be stopped. Its stability and combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the Biochemical Implants of Rising Sun Pharmaceutical. The Department of Defense and the military have withdrawn their support for us. The Violet family must stop the losses in time. "
…
While the whole of America, the whole world, was stirred up by the battle in Berlin. In the ancient country of the East, at the peak of Kunlun Mountain, Li Mochen's' Kongtong Seal 'had changed hands. This incomparably powerful artifact was now held in front of a white-haired and white-bearded old man by a dense spirit.
"Are you serious? You are giving this thing to this old man? "
"Do I still have room for regret now? Or are you willing to return this thing to me? "
Li Mochen, who was standing next to the old man, put his hands behind his back and said with a mocking tone, "This belongs to you. My father used a whole ten sentences in his will to emphasize that this thing must be returned to Kunlun Immortal World, and it must be in your hands. As for me, I am sorry. Before returning it, I used its power to do something extra. You should have heard of it? "
"Chunchu —"
The old man seemed to be recalling something. He sighed with great sadness and then shook his head, "The battle in Berlin shook the world. This old man was lucky enough to observe part of the details with the Kunlun Mirror. I am really amazed by little friend Mo Chen's ability. As for little friend's apology, it is completely unnecessary, and there is no need to mention it again. Although this thing is the treasure of our country's late king, when it is in your hands, it is your right to use it however you want. I just wanted to say that this thing has great implications. Outside of this country, most people do not want to see this thing return. I did not expect that you would be so overbearing and directly send it over. "
"I know."
Li Mochen's expression was very calm. His eyes were confident and even conceited, "But I don't need to care about it now. I have nothing to fear, right? And those who can make me afraid, who can make me feel fear, will not care about the whereabouts of this thing. "
"Indeed!"
The old man nodded in understanding. There was a hint of self-mockery on his face. Then, he flicked his sleeves and summoned the Daoist child standing at the side, "Inform the sect master to ring the bell nine times. Also, ask him to send someone to inform the capital that the nation's treasure has been returned. The whole world should celebrate!"
At this moment, his joy and excitement were overflowing. Li Mochen noticed that this person's hands were also trembling slightly.
Although this old man was already trying his best to control himself, the effect was minimal.
"This thing is too important to our country. This old man's emotions are too agitated and I cannot control myself. Little friend Mo Chen, I have embarrassed myself. "
The old man smiled shamefully. Then, with an extremely serious expression, he said, "I wonder what Kunlun can do to help little friend? As long as it is within my capabilities, this old man will agree on behalf of Kunlun. "
Hearing this, Li Mochen raised his eyebrows slightly, "This is what I should do."
"That is the mission that Kunlun has given to Li Chunchu. It is not what you should do, little friend."
The old man shook his head disapprovingly, "Little friend Mo Chen, since you have done this matter so sincerely, how can this old man be careless? Today is not like a hundred years ago. Kunlun and this country will not let their friends and compatriots suffer. "
He even brought up the story of the Confucian School, "I wonder if little friend Mo Chen has heard of the story of 'Zi Gong ransoming people'? The Confucian Saint's words are incisive. Receiving compensation from the country will not harm your character. But if you do not receive compensation, I am afraid that no one will be willing to serve the country in the future. "
Li Mochen had nothing to say. Then, he asked honestly and impolitely, "In that case, it would be impolite for me to refuse. I really want to know, who created the Great Two Profound Transformation Technique? "
"Those are a few pages of remnant scriptures that were passed down from the outside world to this world. They were completed by the 27th generation sect leader of my family."
The old man seemed to have expected this question from Li Mochen. He handed over the few pages of remnant scriptures that were condensed with spiritual light. "I am afraid that I will have to disappoint you, little friend Mo Chen. My sect leader has already ascended to immortality 11 years ago. There has been no news from him until now."
Li Mochen knew that the "ascension to immortality" that the old man mentioned did not mean death. He was really leaving this world as an immortal and began their journey to roam the Great Void.
But with these pages of remnant scriptures, it was not completely fruitless.
"If possible, can you let me take a look at your sect's scripture tower? I am very interested in all the books about time, space, fate, and the stars. Of course, if your sect does not mind, I can also leave behind some of my own understanding of time and fate in exchange. "
"Why would I mind? The Kunlun Scripture Tower will naturally open its doors to you. Apart from one or two core secret teachings, you can have a look at them. "
The old man's eyes were filled with joy. "This should be the honor of Kunlun. My little friend Mo Chen, your battle with the Vatican in Berlin is enough to show your attainments. Even in Kunlun, there are very few people who can compare to you in history. "
"Thank you very much!"
Li Mochen hesitated for a moment. "I would also like to borrow your sect's' Furnace of Energy Returning 'in the next few years, for about three months."
At this moment, he was prepared to collect treasures and personally forge a suitable mythical sword for himself.
This time, Li Mochen did not intend to use Western gold cultivation. This was because the sword will that he had mastered was a combination of more than ten concepts of Divine Power. And in terms of "balance", "integration", and "coordination", Western gold cultivation was far inferior to Eastern gold cultivation. The former was focused and extreme. They could express all kinds of Divine Power to the extreme, but they were not good at dealing with conflicts between different forces.
As for the Kunlun Mountain's "Furnace of Energy Returning", he had long heard of it. This was forged by more than ten master blacksmiths of the ancient Eastern country. They had also integrated all kinds of advanced technology and used some Western gold cultivation as a reference. This was a masterpiece that combined the Eastern and Western immortal talismans and demonic formations. In his mind, it was the most ideal weapon forging tool.
The National Smelting Institute of America also had something of the same level, but Li Mochen reckoned that it would be difficult for him to borrow it. Even if he borrowed it, he would not be able to use it as he pleased.
