"Have you calculated? How much should the Japanese lose after tossing like this?" After dinner, Zuo Lin asked curiously while drinking coffee.

The Siren basically completed the entire operation successfully and was anchored in the offshore. With the inefficient freshwater purification device on the ship, as long as the oil and food are sufficient, they can basically stay at sea for a long time. After leaving the coast of Japan and heading south to the equator, they also lifted the radio silence and the tight alertness of avoiding any reconnaissance means, turned on the satellite antenna, and while collecting relevant reports from Japan, they allowed everyone to surf the Internet with the Druid Council General

The ministry also re-connected. When everyone was happy to learn that the Watchmen Association would intend to talk to the Druid Council about returning to the parliament. Sophocles is re-applying for ID. In a few days, nine veteran druids, including Sophocles, Sun Digui and Bernard, will set off from Scotland to Japan. Of course, so many people on the Siren will find a place to meet them first. The initial location is in the Philippines, and Sun Digui is just going to see the plantation.

But during the waiting days, they couldn't really go on vacation. They hid on the boat and drove a submarine to the bottom of the sea to discuss topics of concern on the boat. They played cards and game machines anyway. They really looked like they were on vacation. Although it was a luxury to use a well-equipped scientific investigation boat worth 80 million to be a vacation yacht, many equipment also provided a lot of fun for everyone. As for the food... isn't there seafood in the sea?

Zuo Lin's question was raised, which made everyone imagine. How should Japan's losses be calculated? Or a servant who had been a fishing boat owner wrote and calculated for a long time and reported a number that made people gasp: the losses that can be seen ranged from 1.6 to 1.8 billion US dollars, including the sinking and scrapped ships and the resulting insurance compensation. The pensions of the dead crew captains, the repair costs of several second-tier to third-tier ports that they destroyed by them, and the bankruptcy of the entire luxury industry chain that relies on whales.

At the same time, at the Prime Minister's residence in Tokyo, Japan, the numbers presented to the Prime Minister by several experts were 5.5 billion to 6.5 billion US dollars. The figures analyzed by a group of financial and financial experts made the Prime Minister dizzy. Everyone knows how much the $55 billion can do, and now it suddenly turns into a bubble on the sea.

In the analysis of experts, there are not only direct losses that everyone can think of, but also a large number of derivative costs, such as meaningless litigation and investigation that will definitely occur. Although those who live by whaling and are now unemployed may not be regarded as worthy of it, the government must come forward to solve the employment and resettlement problems of some people in order to stabilize. In any case, whaling is a highly technical and professional job, and is now attracting attention. The Japanese government is targeting public criticism and has definitely not made the courage to immediately rebuild the whaling industry at this juncture, but these professionals must be raised and controlled first, regardless of whether the decision to rebuild the whaling industry will be decided or not.

When will it arrive or when. The related industrial chains related to whaling have also been formed into a mud. Some are companies and sales networks that use whales as luxury goods. The other is a small number of industrial raw materials, and products such as sperm whales that can generate huge profits, which cannot be estimated in detail. If Zuo Lin gets the figures that only calculate the surface losses, then the report obtained by the Prime Minister is a product of detailed research and analysis after establishing an industrial economic model with whaling as the source. The losses of 5.5 to 6.5 billion US dollars can be regarded as a considerable wound for the Japanese economy.

As a politician, the Prime Minister has long been honing his ability to remain calm in fame and disgrace. After carefully reading the report of only 6 pages, he said to the expert who was waiting respectfully and fearlessly: "Thank you all for your hard work." Then he turned around and walked out of the living room and asked the driver to drive him to a courtyard near Tokyo.

This place called Tsukatsushi Temple is no longer a temple. In fact, since the earliest times, it has never been a temple in the formal sense, and at most it is called a temple. However, the owners here are somewhat less influential than the abbots of the largest temples in Japan, and this influence is not limited to believers.

Yuse Kamekura did not express any honor or enthusiasm because of the Prime Minister's arrival. He was too lazy to go to the main entrance to greet the Prime Minister. Instead, he was wearing dark blue loose traditional clothes as always, sitting in the backyard drinking tea while admiring the carp in the pond.

The Prime Minister did not feel any dissatisfied with the fact that Yuse Kamekura was so arrogant. Instead, he first thanked Yuse Kamekura for being willing to meet him in his busy schedule. It sounded a bit like a swearing person. Although Yuse Kamekura is currently a top-notch master of dual cultivation of supernatural powers and magic in Japan, he was not busy at all. As for receiving... this kind of vocabulary that obviously divides the upper and lower levels does not seem to be very appropriate.

"Mr. Kagura, this is the assessment of the losses that some experts will cause after the whaling ship is sunk these days. Please check it out." The Prime Minister pushed the folder with both hands in front of Kagura Yuse.

"Your Excellency, you know I'm not asking too many things. I don't care much about these losses. What I want to know is, what do you want me to do?" Yuse Kagura did not go to that folder. He could roughly guess the Prime Minister's purpose. The dozens of whaling ships in the entire Pacific were completely lost in less than a week, causing great panic among the news media and the people. Even some guys and cults who pretended to be magic are ready to move. Although the police and the Maritime Self-Defense Force and the intelligence department are fully investigating, they can never give an answer to the strange causes of the shipwreck: How did it happen? Is it a natural phenomenon, a biological or a human? If it is man-made, who did it? Is it a terrorist organization or another group?

When various investigation results were summarized to the Prime Minister, he actually knew that this must be the force in another field. This power, even if he is the Prime Minister of Japan, cannot be controlled and controlled. In Japan, there are many factions of practitioners, most of them are aristocratic families and sects with a deep history. They have considerable assets to provide their own needs, or are supported by large families, and have sent some children to serve those large families. Although he has contacted some of these people, he knows very little. But if he wants to adjust through those large families, he wants to do so.

The power in this area is undoubtedly to be a flirting with the tiger. Japan also wants to learn from other countries and organize specialized superpower departments, but it has to give up because of the obstruction of the big family. If it weren't for the "Chrysanthemum" character team stationed in the Meiji Shrine, there would be almost no power of cultivators who could master it. Although the Chrysanthemum character team practiced hard, it was only suitable for fighting. It would be impossible to do with complex investigation and intelligence organization. It can even be said that as long as it did not threaten the Emperor's family, they would not bother to care about anything else.

This time, when the Prime Minister knew that there must be special forces involved and asked some people behind the scenes, he had the opportunity to learn more about this matter. After all, to calm the situation, he still needs to come forward as the Prime Minister. When he learned that the Kikumi-word Team was not very effective, an old senior recommended this to the Prime Minister to the Prime Minister.

"The sinking of whaling ships this time is too strange. The people, even government agencies, and even the intelligence agencies investigating this matter have begun to have various rumors. I have always admired the masters who can comprehend the great way of practice, and I dare not take things from the secular world. However, this time the situation is serious, and I hope the master will give advice. Didn't it mean that practitioners and psychics generally do not intervene in the secular world? Why are there so bold and arbitrary this time? If the master can work together to investigate, let us know who did it. Whether we negotiate or deal with it, we have a direction." The Prime Minister said humbly.

Kamekura Yuki's strategy is a little embarrassed: "I'm afraid I can't be competent for this kind of investigation. I have been practicing for many years, but I have sluggished my ideas in other aspects. Do you have a detailed record of the investigation results? If possible, I hope to take a look and maybe I can see some clues from it."

The Prime Minister, who had long expected that Gui Cang would have requests in this regard, immediately summoned the secretary who had been waiting by the side, handed over a stack of documents that had been archived in different categories and carefully printed and sorted out.

"The original information of the investigators is here." The Prime Minister took the top stack of documents and presented them to Yuse Kamekura, saying: "These are some relatively concise conclusions, maybe the master can come up with something from it... I wonder, Master, how many days will it take you to give an answer?"

Yuse Kamekura quickly browsed the stack of documents. Although the results were incorrect, the idea from the analysis of materials was still valid. At least, it was established in the common sense of those who conducted the investigation.

Yuse Kamekura saw a lot of shocking content in this document. Although it was still unsure before meeting the other party, it was almost the same. Yuse Kamekura felt a little guilty when he thought of the other party's powerful strength and all kinds of strange and unpredictable spells.

"Your Excellency, I wonder if you have ever heard of a group called Druid..."

The Prime Minister was a little surprised and said, "You are talking about the Druids in the United States? But they are not terrorist organizations."

"The Druid Sect is a joke, it's just a group of people who have created no threats. However, there is indeed a group of people in this world who inherit ancient intelligence and take it as their mission to defend the entire natural world. They are very powerful. Judging from the way these whaling ships sink and destroy, it should be their work. Manipulating plants and controlling animals are the things that the druids are best at... As for the whaling industry... Your Excellency, I also think that the whaling industry is unpopular, let alone those druids who are countless times stronger than any environmental organization."

The Prime Minister said anxiously: "But why are they so blatant? Don't the international community have their own private agreements about superpowers and practice groups?"

Yuse Kamekura smiled bitterly and said, "There is indeed an agreement, especially restricting practitioners and psychics from being involved in state and political behavior, and trying not to conflict with the state machinery. However, if we have the source of this matter, it is probably in our country. You, is there any loss of original archive files in China recently?"

He was reminded by Yuse Kagura, the Prime Minister's face turned pale. He said: "There has been a serious archive loss in Wugang. It is still being investigated, which may be related to China. Do you think it was done by the Druid?"

Yuzee Kamekura never knew there were Chinese people in the Druid Parliament. He said with a little strange: "If it was Wugang, it should be true. I will tell you what I know later for your decision. But the druids should have nothing to do with China. It was an ancient mysterious group in Europe, and the history may have been thousands of years.... The origin of the incident was decades ago, and it was considered a large-scale conflict between Chinese practitioners and druids. In fact, it took a long time afterwards that time to understand that it was being used. However, the best group of druids who came to our country and were surrounded by Chinese practitioners with kindness and then cursed and killed. This is an indisputable fact.

An elder in Yuseki Kagura was involved in the matter back then, but the practitioner was smarter. He was "injured" and "uncanny" in the preparation battle to bring the druids into the encirclement. Then after the incident, he performed a trick to pay homage to the deceased, saying that he "wanted to die with you." But it was precisely because of this elder that Yuseki Kagura could know these things and not be confused when the Prime Minister asked. Unlike ordinary practitioners, and those who dared to come out and wander after learning something, Yuseki Kagura yearned for power, but used improving his strength and knowledge as the basis for fighting for power in the future. But he didn't expect that before his practice was basically over, the opportunity came to his door.

After telling the Prime Minister about what happened that year, the Prime Minister was a little scared. With more than 1,000 people besieging more than 10 people, they had to set up a large formation to die together. Although the practitioners involved had mixed cultivation and had to deal with the pressure of the US military stationed in Japan, it is indeed an indisputable fact that the other party's strength is strong.

"The things that happened back then were very involved and very few people knew about them. Everyone thought it had just passed. Although the druids had sent many people to Japan for investigation, they might not want to have conflicts with the government and local practitioners, and there was no big progress. If they knew what happened back then and the druids came to seek revenge, I am afraid that the destruction of the whaling industry would have just begun." Yuzuosa Kamekura deliberately exaggerated the possible consequences because he knew too much about how important this was.

Response

The Prime Minister allocated US$30 million in operation funds to Yuse Kamekura, which could be freely withdrawn without leaving any evidence, and granted him the command of intelligence agencies and the military to a certain extent. This command is only a kind of auxiliary, and Yuse Kamekura, does not necessarily need the help of secular intelligence personnel, special forces and military forces, but since Yuse Kamekura is a guy with some ambitions, he still accepted it.

The Prime Minister vaguely revealed his intention to use this crisis as an opportunity to promote the establishment of Japan's special capabilities department, and his attitude of entrusting the organization's preparations and establishment work to Yuse Kamekura completely moved. As a veteran politician, the Prime Minister's grasp of human nature is too accurate. He respectfully met Yuse Kamekura with a low attitude, but when he left, the status of the two was reversed. Although the Prime Minister did not show it, the names and tones of the two had changed vaguely.

In the following days, Yuse Kagura traveled through many temples from south to north. The hermit family in the mountains and some practitioners hidden in the city had different methods of practice and different intentions among these people, many of whom were old friendships accumulated by generations of the Kagura family, and some were practitioners with various purposes. Are the practitioners noble? Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, but Yuse Kagura, who is also a practitioner, understands the most. In fact, these Japanese practitioners empathize with the lack of resources. Behind Japan's previous wars of foreign aggression, there are always a number of practitioners of all levels who are promoting the fire, because compared to ordinary people, they are the most empathetic.

People have irreconcilable demands for food, large populations, living space, a country's ambition for resources, practitioners' demand for various materials, and places where spiritual energy is full. Compared with Chinese practitioners who can have sufficient choices in the vast land, Japanese practitioners are more like insects placed in vessels, fighting each other, and only a small number can survive. Although in terms of combat effectiveness, the level of these practitioners is not bad, but in terms of realm, it is much worse. After all, people who think about fighting all day long and think about how to calculate others and not be plotted by others, their realm cannot be higher.

Yuzeze Kamekura could not control so much. He first grabbed the forces that had always been extremely friendly with his family, and then attracted many neutral practitioners who were unwilling to participate in this matter to his team. He used the words of money or other aspects, the so-called national and national interests, etc., and other aspects. Different attitudes towards different people have become his most basic means. In just a few days, Yuzeze Kamekura gathered.

A special combat team consisting of 2,300 people. Although there is no training or cooperation experience, these guys are used to fighting each other. They are good at fighting against each other. Three or five small groups can play a good job when they get familiar with each other. However, a large-scale team confrontation is a bit difficult. However, Yuzusa Kamekura guessed that even if the druids come to Japan for revenge, they probably won't have too many people. After all, they are not really going to fight against a country.

There is no big problem with Yuzuo Kamekura's idea. But the strength of the druids is overestimated in some aspects, but in some aspects, it is underestimated in some aspects.

This time, those who came to Japan gathered the most powerful part of the world's druids. In addition, the servants and some friends with strong relationships with druids, the total number actually reached more than 500. Nearly 200 people have entered the country one after another. However, since the druids are an open and loose group with members all over the world, even if they all enter Japan through legal channels, they cannot select them from countless ordinary business dealings and tourists, not to mention that many of the druids have no concept of country and borders at all. Some people have never even thought of getting an ID card or something. Flying, swimming and other means can come to Japan's territory.

But his criterion for evaluating the combat effectiveness of the druids was not correct. 10 druids can compete with thousands of practitioners, and the most important thing is the tactics and cooperation of the druids. Druids understand better than any human being, and those who form team philosophy under modern management education. They were originally studying the impact of nuclear radiation on the surrounding environment, and their research on surrounding biological communities was better than the locals.

It is indeed very difficult for the Japanese practitioners who were temporarily gathered in the group to threaten the druids in this situation, and the druids with deep qualifications and experience are indeed very difficult. No matter how many people surrounded them, there are only a few who can actually join the battle. The druids have endless strange means and rotated to rest, and they are fighting with their backs. It is much better than the Japanese local practitioners who have at best played less than 40% of the total energy.

While Kamekura Yuse tried hard to piece together a piece of revenge that he believed was enough to fight against the druids, the preparations for the druids were also quietly carried out. Learning that Japanese local practitioners and Shintoism had many masters who manipulated the soul-type ability, Zuo Lin's thoughts immediately turned to the set of top shaman equipment placed in a bank safe in Shanghai, especially the soul-chasing scepter. So he asked Cheng Chi to bring this set to Japan and hand it over to Gustav, who had already made a splash in Japan. Although he himself might not be able to use the soul-chasing scepter, his teacher Sun Digui could exert the combat power of the scepter. This top magic weapon that is hard to come by is lying in the warehouse at such a critical moment.

Cheng Chi was a little depressed. It was not easy for him to transport these things to Japan, but Zuo Lin always asked for his help, which disturbed his pursuit - Piaotianwen - a wooden complex with a long history - Shifang Shen Temple. The priests in white robes were walking in the low and wide porch of typical Japanese buildings, and more people sat quietly in the rooms, practicing the scriptures towards the statues. In the courtyard, some new disciples wearing gray coarse cloth robes were enjoying their fresh life - sweeping the floor.

The rock bird jumped, but never approached the courtyard wall of the temple. There seemed to be an invisible air wall on it, and it seemed to have a power grid built up in the air. Once it hit, it would immediately lose its ability to move and fall to the ground for a long time. For a weak creature like it, such a situation should be avoided. Even if it cannot move for a few minutes, it may become the food of a certain fox, a weasel or a feathered vulture.

Suddenly, a gray-brown squirrel with a fluffy and beautiful big tail jumped onto the same branch of the rock sparrow, poked out his front paws and hugged the rock sparrow hard, kissed it on its small cheek, then jumped away, and disappeared in an instant.

The rock bird was so shocked that it almost fell from the tree. Its small head was not enough to understand such a complicated situation. It stood still for a while, jumped back and forth a few times, and confirmed that there was no threat, so it turned around and flew away.

The squirrel ran for more than a kilometer, and in the middle of a dense forest, it jumped down from the top of the tree.

A wide blanket flew in the air, wrapped it in the middle, and gently landed on the ground. A few seconds later, a head with honey-colored hair emerged from the middle of the blanket. "Hey, Zuo Lin, hand me the clothes."

Putting aside Emile always likes to create all kinds of tricks, she is really a capable helper. Especially since she is proficient in all kinds of deformation techniques.

There are three types of druid's deformation technique: filling type, mix type and condensation type. Deformed into animals with larger volume than the body, the parts that are insufficient in volume filled with tissue evolved from natural forces are called filling type; deformed into volume similar to the body, and after the body tissue changes, it is mixed with the force of nature and strengthened, which is called mixing type; deformed into animals with smaller volume than the body, compressing muscle tissue with natural forces to form an extremely dense and tough body, called condensation type.

Most druids master a type of transformation technique. If they master several of them, they will turn to develop other abilities and specialize in one or several exercise content. But Emil not only masters 3 types of transformation techniques at the same time, but can transform up to 22 animals. And several of them can also be freely converted in three types, such as killer whales, wolves, tigers, and Emil's own position symbol - "dolphin".

Except for some psychopathic guys, few people will hurt those cute little animals. Especially animals such as squirrels and pigeons are simply invincible when they spy on confidential places. Of course, this is also because Emil's transformation technique is enough to achieve home, not only in form, but also in every detail movement, and even in eyes. This elf-like girl who walked out of the wilderness and the mountains and forests was like a fish in the water when she came to the city environment.

Emil and Zuo Lin came to Japan together, and before they traveled between cities, the most prosperous cities they had been to were probably Edinburgh. She was so curious about the city. But she carefully wrapped this curiosity and hid it in her heart, hiding it in the mood of being unable to be spyed. Emil was different from any druid not only because of her vastness and depth in druid spells, but also because of her super learning ability. When Emil felt that the city ecology was a little fun and began to learn to be an ordinary person in a city coin, she had no obvious flaws in almost an hour.

While walking on the street with Zuo Lin in a comfortable casual outfit, Emil, who had a camera on his neck, was no different from any traveler. Although her curious eyes and agile expression attracted a high rate of return, it would not expose her. And when she left the city and began to launch a fatal blow to their predetermined target, Emil became the most capable druid again.

After putting on a few clothes, Emil came out of the blanket, tying his shoelaces while telling what he saw. "The Ten-Territory God Palace doesn't look great either? Those priests seem to be very bad, and they don't look strong at all. I can beat them ten or eight." Emil said confidently.

"Don't underestimate them. The characteristic of Shintoism is not physical practice, and spiritual practice is limited to not being backfired when casting spells. But they have magic tools. Shintoism has strong research on magic tools and similar external forces. Those Shintoism, spiritual beasts summoned by spiritual techniques, and attack methods formed by soul power are very troublesome. Fortunately, you are at least one fifth of the spell druid, otherwise I won't bring you here. The animal-based ability is too disadvantageous to fight Shintoism." Zuolin handed Emil a bowl of hot herbal porridge. Since he had eaten Zuolin's porridge on Otto Island, Emil, who did not prefer the staple food of rice, was fascinated by this medicine porridge to nourish and regulate the body, and was also fascinated by the warm and soft taste.

Seeing Zuo Lin looked down on him a little, Emier said angrily: "What is a one-fifth spell druid? You are just a one-third spell druid."

"No. I'm a little stronger than you. I'm a two-fifth of the spell druid." Zuolin said with a smile, "I'm only one-fifth of the animal-type ability, far worse than you. Two-fifth of the plant-type ability plus two-fifth of the spell-type ability, probably that's the case."

Emil and Zuolin now have a deep understanding of each other's abilities, not only because they "in-depth" cooperation in a series of actions to attack whaling ships, but also because the two of them just let go of an island in the South Pacific a while ago. Their endless novel combat methods and their wonderful use of abilities such as deformation, spells, plants and animals made the druids who watched the battle and recorded the video for a long time. They are known as the teaching demonstration of the classic druid confrontation. As a result of that battle, although Emil was much more familiar with various methods than Zuolin, Zuolin finally walked into the mountain gate step by step with a tree - floating astronomy - idle place. The main hall of the Ten-Strait Temple was already in sight.
