After discussing the matter, Vice President Boca took Aiwass to a small banquet.
This was a small gathering of less than ten people, and the attendees were all middle-level members of Lloyd's Club. They are clearly not the rare transcendants within Lloyd's. Because Vice President Boka didn't mention a word about the Noble Red Society, and they obviously had no idea about it.
Vice President Boca announced that he personally invited Awas Moriarty, who was recently awarded the Order of the Sword by the Queen, to join Lloyd's.
With the guarantee of the vice-president, these people were very enthusiastic in front of the serious-looking Vice-President of Boca.
They are all well-known businessmen in Glass Island, and the one with the lowest net worth is also the owner of the second largest construction company in Lloyd District. They are all "corporate members" who join Lloyd's as a company, and are at a higher level than those "individual members" who borrow money or buy insurance in their own name.
Even among these people, there are several people who have known Aiwass from before. They had been friends with old Moriarty in the past, and one of them was introduced to Lloyd's by old Moriarty.
Obviously none of them knew about Professor Moriarty's death. After learning that Aiwass had joined Lloyd's, their first reaction was to celebrate.
Because in their opinion, this obviously means that Professor Moriarty is planning to let Aiwass inherit the family business. That's why I asked the Vice President of Boca to invite Aiwass in and get in touch with these "old friends".
Of course, these people may not be of any use. If they knew that Professor Moriarty was "in trouble", they might even backfire and add insult to injury. The vice president of Boca brought Aiwass to see them in order to make it public that "Aiwass was invited by Boca to join Lloyd's."
Although this matter may not be reported in the newspaper, these people are obviously not tight-lipped people. They will soon spread this information to their own small circle. It won't take long for the well-informed people in the Glass Island to know that Aiwass has become a member of Lloyd's and is also a member of Boca's faction.
This behavior actually made Aiwass feel a little amused.
Because Boca’s behavior was actually not very good on the part of President Lloyd.
According to the information Aiwass just received, Lawyer York, Vice President Boca, and President Lloyd are all transcendants of the Noble Red Society. But Vice President Boca didn't want Aiwass to get to know President Lloyd.
Introducing Aiwass to the following people without even introducing him to President Lloyd, or even notifying the president. This is obviously because he does not want President Lloyd to refuse Aiwass to join.
This is completely out of process.
How can one recruit an important member who is also a spy, aide, and spokesperson, but not bring it to the boss to take a look, or even ask the boss whether he agrees or not
In the previous conversation, Aiwass already knew too many things that he shouldn't know. likeIf he refuses to join, then they will have no choice but to take action.
Similarly, if Aiwass agrees to join but Mr. Lloyd refuses, they will still have to take action to silence him.
Aiwass was keenly aware of the "urgent" aura. Not only was the York lawyer who had given the order to die anxious, but even the vice president of Boca was also a little anxious.
From this detail, Aiwass boldly judged that Vice President Boca and President Lloyd should have a lot of conflicts now. Lawyer York is a fence-sitter who has not yet decided whether he wants to sit on the fence.
Before this, he had not yet decided whether he would side with the president or the vice president. But now he clearly has no choice.
As a transcendent of giant hybrids and artificial cultivation, President Lloyd may be closer to the noble red side. Now he is also the glue between the two organizations, so he is the one who put pressure on York's lawyer and ordered him to kill Sherlock. Quick Win
Boca should be the fence-sitter between these two organizations. As a businessman, his greedy instinct makes him want to use and even annex the dangerous association of demonologists; and as a transcendent trait, he is unwilling to transfer profits to his immediate boss, President Lloyd, and even wants to replace him. .
That’s why they tried to recruit Aiwass.
Recruiting Aiwass is a risky move, but businessmen are willing to take risks for the sake of profit.
Although they already know that Aiwass is a first-level demonologist, they have grasped Aiwass' control from two levels of force and politics, and have given him control from two levels of property inheritance and demonic knowledge. Inducement and friendship. But after all, this plan is very risky, and there is a possibility of failure at any time.
Having to implement such a plan so urgently and even hastily despite the risks actually proves from the side that the current situation of Vice President Boca is not good.
This is also normal.
As a transcendent, he is already very close to the previous President Lloyd. President Lloyd must be vigilant and have a sense of crisis.
But there is actually a road trap here.
Extraordinary people who have transcended the path must not deliberately suppress latecomers unless necessary, so that the other party cannot surpass themselves.
Because this kind of behavior is first of all a restraint and rebellion against the "transcendence" behavior itself; secondly, it symbolizes the fear that one's own talents will deteriorate and cannot continue to progress. Instead, it may make subordinates realize that their boss has become weaker. ; And this kind of top-down control and suppression is itself an "authoritarian" path. The more you want to control your subordinates, the easier it will be to deviate from the authoritarian path.
If you want not to be surpassed by latecomers, the best way is to keep moving forward and keep improving. You cannot stop for a moment, otherwise you will be overtaken and everything you have taken away.
Therefore, competition beyond the road mostly involves competition at the same level and backstabbing by subordinates. The attitude of superiors towards subordinates will be more friendly.
President Lloyd obviously knew this taboo. So he couldn't take action against Boca, but that didn't mean he wasn't nervous.
"Transcending" beyond the road is not as simple and friendly as running to catch up.
The most legitimate plunder is when the weak defeats the strong. The more beautiful you win and the more things you plunder, the more power of the Path you get from this behavior that resonates with the Path. Eating death and failure to grow is the essence of the path to transcendence.
And if it is meaningless to rely on the strong to bully the weak, it often means that the transcendent will is weakened and blunted. On the contrary, it may stagnate one's growth or even weaken in turn. For example, the Star Antimony Kingdom’s excuse for war can only be to “let Star Antimony remain intact as before,” “make Star Antimony great again,” and “let Star Antimony continue to expand,” but not “suppress the development of its neighbors.”
For this reason, in order to prevent the other party from having the opportunity to surpass itself again, when the person surpasses the goal, he will deprive the other party to the point where he cannot be deprived of it. Completely tear the opponent into pieces, defeat and destroy them, without giving the opponent any chance for revenge.
The Vice President of Boca has obviously set his sights on the butt of the man above him.
President Lloyd still wants to move forward, and he cannot suppress Vice President Boca at this time. If he goes further, he will inherit Prince Lloyd's wish and usurp the royal power. This is no easy task.
However, he cannot openly suppress without reason, but he can "suppress the Boca Vice President by the way" within reasonable limits.
For example, using the excuse that "Aiwass has offended the Noble Red Society", deny him membership and kill him to silence him. In this way, Vice President Boka's breaking point was eliminated by him. And if Aiwass died here, the York lawyer who brought him would also be implicated.
In the opinion of Vice President Boca, things will probably end up like this. That's why he took the risk of offending President Lloyd and directly pushed for the implementation of this matter.
It seems reasonable that Noble Red and Lloyds are ready to break up at any time. After all, both sides are businessmen and the other side are transcendents. Common interests alone are no longer enough to unite them; they must have a common enemy.
But now that the royal family is too weak, it is still holding back even though it is almost dead. So on the eve of victory, Noble Red and Lloyd couldn't help but start attacking each other.
Since the contradiction has reached this level, it is simple.
Aiwass already knew what to do.
After repelling the group of demonologists, he can fake a scene.
For example, in his dormitory, he arranged traces of demonologists using rituals to summon shadow demons to attack him, and then he hid directly, pretending to be himself and disappeared. Leaving a wheelchair in place will prove that you have been kidnapped.
The Shadow Demon in this era is difficult to contract, but it is still possible to just summon it and let it do damage. And Aiwass actually has a shadow demon, so it's easy to leave real evidence.
At this time, what would Mr. Bokar think? He would only think that it was President Lloyd who acted.In order to forcibly kill Aiwass to destroy his plan;
But President Lloyd knew that he did not do it, so what would happen to him? He could only think that this was because the people on the other side of the association were not Trust them and choose to do it yourself. After all, Master and Disciple Da Zi are members of the association. They have already summoned the Shadow Demon once.
But the association also knew that they did not do it, so they could only doubt Lloyd's.
For other organizations, you can also use "taking an oath" to prove that you are telling the truth. However, the Noble Red Society has inherited the art of breaking promises, making the constraints of the oath meaningless.
In any case, Aiwass, who is only at the first level and who even obtained his demonological knowledge as a demonologist from the association, is definitely innocent. He is a pure victim. Besides, high-level demons like Shadow Demon cannot be summoned by just anyone.
At this time, Aiwass can directly control the Shadow Demon to attack Lloyd's.
To put it simply, his plan is so simple that it can be summarized in one sentence. The shorter the plan, the more effective it is, because it directly points to the giant's weakest point.
That is, "You all fake your own death, then I will also fake your own death once."
