Chapter 53: Their Purpose

"It is inevitable. And it will definitely achieve results faster than the Gate of Truth - because it is almost an embryo." Ueno Kanryu looked directly at him, "If the Gate of Truth tries to mass-produce the powers for combat, then we must have taken the same countermeasures. So have you ever wondered what the consequences would be if we did this?"

Li Zhen's face gradually became solemn. He pondered for a while and whispered: "The number of capable people will continue to expand... Maybe this transformation will still have flaws - no technology will be perfect from the beginning. Then the secrets of us will no longer be secrets, and the public will know. If they are all humans with normal emotions like you and me, it may be okay. But if it is a 'batch product' used for combat... it is almost inevitable to cause panic."

"Whether there is a flaw, it's just one thing." Ueno Kanryu sighed lightly, "The most serious problem is that the Gate of Truth is willing to see such a result. They are waiting for the day of judgment."

Li Zhen looked at him suspiciously: "You mean... you took their slogan seriously?"

After saying these words, both Li Zhen and Ueno Guanliu's emotions were slightly relieved, and their conversations became a little casual. Ueno Guanliu smiled: "I know that not many Chinese believe in Catholicism. In fact, the same is true for the Japanese, but just like Chiyou's legend... Is there any reason to think that legend is unreliable? If an organization like the Gate of Truth does not have some convincing things to gather everyone together - relying solely on illusory beliefs and legends... do you think they may have persisted until now?"

Li Zhen shouted and looked at him thoughtfully: "That is to say, what you want to tell me next is the things that are unknown?"

"Yes." Ueno Kanryu looked at him directly, "Major Li Zhen, can I trust you?"

Li Zhen lowered his head and thought. Then he let out a long sigh and smiled slightly: "If it is a just and just reason - then if you trust the King of Ice and Snow and Wind, you can trust me."

Ueno Kanryu nodded: "Okay. Then please listen carefully."

"The ultimate goal of the Gate of Truth is to return to the age of the Garden of Eden and establish a world ruled by the Holy Spirit. They believe that they must go through a stage before, that is, the 'Judgement Day' mentioned in the Bible. However, the group of people did not agree with some of the views of Catholicism, or rather, they did not agree with most of the views of Catholicism. They even dismissed the Bible as a false scripture." Ueno Kanryu said in a slow tone, and looked at Li Zhen at the same time, "You can think that their so-called ultimate goal is a dream, but you should not deny the fact that the prophet does exist and that what the prophet predicts will happen."

Li Zhen remembered the prophecy he heard before the Shennongjia incident. So he smiled faintly because the prophet of the empire before predicted "the blood of thousands of people and the blood flowing in the earth". However, although the secret service department suffered heavy losses, it did not reach the number of "the thousand people". He always felt that the prophecy was a bit biased, or... what he said was not the Shennongjia incident.

But Ueno Kamiri took his smile as his accusation, so he continued: "The goal of the gate of truth is to be built on a prophet of that prophet. They believed that their 'Lord' - although they didn't know what they mean for the time being - would wake up. And before the 'Lord' wakes up, the Day of Judgment will come. The description of the Day of Judgment in the Bible is that the Four Knights of Apocalypse will come to the earth, and the resurrection of the deceased - mankind is destroyed by their own precepts, and the final judgment is accepted, and the good will be able to be "eternal life."

"But at the gate of truth, this is not over. They predicted that after the final judgment, the Eternal Kingdom of Eden will come, and the Holy Spirit will rule the world. The key point is the ‘Holy Spirit’ - what do you think that is?”

Li Zhen frowned slightly and spit out two words: "Classic?"

"At present, this is the case." Ueno Guanliu nodded, "According to their words, the almost immortal creature is the closest to the divine being. The Four Apocalypse Knights may only refer to Adam and Chiyou, and they can be regarded as the "holy spirit" they mentioned. As for the human race, the awakened dead... all we can think of is the possible research and experiments that the Inspection Office and the Secret Service Office can conduct. Adam's power can alienate ordinary people, so what can we achieve after human processing? I wonder if you have ever seen a series of movies..."

"Resident Evil?" Li Zhen realized what he was going to say.

"That's not just a movie." Ueno Kanryu said solemnly, "The producers of that series of movies...the background is the gate of truth. They are trying to instill something, and they are quite successful. You can't imagine how many people in the world are now...I believe that the scenes depicted in that movie will come one day."

"But they detonated a hydrogen bomb in the Pacific Ocean - it seemed to be to destroy a species." Li Zhen said.

"It is true. So our guess is... they are collecting information and samples about species as much as possible, even in a violent way. Once the resources are sufficient and the conditions are sufficient, the group of people may even reenact the scene in the movie - starting the so-called "end of the day" with their own power. Or they may "create God" - creating the "Holy Spirit" in their hearts, that is, species."

If these words were not spoken from the head of the Tokyo Metropolitan Inspection Office's intelligence officer, Li Zhen would have thought that the other party had paranoia. "Garden of Eden" and "the kingdom ruled by the Holy Spirit" - such things would seem quite ridiculous in any case. Because this... is the real world. It is a modern human society built by steel, cement, and machinery. In such a world, what ideal country is empty... Only ancient people from thousands of years ago would believe it.

However, he immediately thought of himself.

I... am not an ordinary human. If a person can fly, it is difficult to be killed. He can control flames and lightning, and then he can control something else with his mind, and even control ice, snow and wind like the Ice King.

What is the difference between it and the gods in myths and legends?

So he whispered: "You mean, whether the Inspection Office, the Secret Service, or even other institutions are willing or not, they will eventually become the help of the Gate of Truth."

"That's true." Ueno Kanryu straightened his body and said seriously, "The obvious benefits are in front of you, and no one will be moved. Once the 'achievement' of the Gate of Truth appears on the battlefield, then we will inevitably react like that. The Inspectorate Office may have concerns, but your country... you have been proud for too long. You will not believe that there is any power that cannot be controlled by them."

"So that's it." Li Zhen sighed slightly, "So, what are you going to do?"

"Do it directly." Ueno Guanliu looked at Li Zhen, "I know you have this ability."

Li Zhen shook his head gently: "You looked up to me. This guy can adapt to the high temperature in the magma pond... Maybe he won't be as afraid of my ability as Chi You."

Ueno Kanryu nodded: "We did consider this possibility, too. So this is just the first idea. The second is to capture it, leave it in Japan, and then we will choose to seal it forever, or destroy it completely. But we cannot let the Secret Service get this thing - our hands are out of reach."

Li Zhen was silent for a while.

The car was driving very steadily and there was almost no bump in the car. But he didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing on the first night he arrived in Japan, which caused a storm in his heart.

Ueno Guanliu used the word "we" several times, which means that he is indeed an agent of an organization in the inspection hall, or a nail that was inserted into it. Will that organization... be the heart club?

It is hard to imagine that such a low-key group in China has such a huge influence in Japan. Can the King of Ice and Snow and Wind be able to achieve this level alone?

He looked at his watch. There were still five minutes left.

So Li Zhen said, "Did you join the Heart Society in Sun Muran's era?"

Ueno Kanliu smiled.

Then it's confirmed.

"I agree with part of your point of view. I will try to destroy it in battle if I have the chance." Li Zhen said slowly, "but if it is captured, I cannot cooperate with you to leave it in Japan. Just as you don't trust the Secret Service, as the executive officer of the Secret Service, I cannot trust the Inspectorate Office."

Ueno Kanliu wanted to say something, but Li Zhen waved his hand and interrupted him.

"Maybe you are really working for the Xinshe - but I didn't know this organization before, or I didn't understand the true face of this organization. So I can't trust you without reservation just by saying "Knowing good and knowing evil is conscience." I can keep the things you said to me just now. But next, I have my own way."

He smiled: "I hope you can understand."

Ueno Kanliu looked at Li Zhen and turned around: "That guy has a very high opinion of you."

He subconsciously grasped the handle of the knife that was cut in a pattern: "And you will always have a chance to know what kind of people we are."

"Why not tell me now?" Li Zhen smiled.

"As long as words cannot describe our lofty ideals," Ueno Kanryu said, "I also hope that you will not look at us like those mediocre people. The word "XinShe" is not just a name."

"So what are your ideals?" Li Zhen asked.

"Everything we should do." Ueno Kanryu said briefly.

Li Zhen smiled: "It's very general. Or - maintain world peace?"

Ueno Guanliu raised her eyebrows. So Li Zhen waved her hand: "There is no malice. It's not even a joke, it's just a more intuitive way of expression. What I'm more curious about is how strong your power is?"
