Chapter 1469: Chapter 484: No Commercial Alliance (6k)_2

After Shang Ji initiated the communication request, in just ten short minutes, the Business Alliance had already swiftly set up a secret communication line.

In the communication device projection prepared by Shang Ji, Bai Yi saw the appearance of the three Business Alliance believers connecting with her this time.

"The Speaker of the Business Alliance, the Minister of Finance of the Saien Civilization, and also one of the members of the final council of the Saien Civilization.

Two ’shareholders’ of the Business Alliance, who are also senior government officials in charge of different departments of the Saien Civilization."

Combining the appearance of the three with the information from the network, Bai Yi had already recognized the identities of these three Business Alliance believers, who were undoubtedly the real high-level figures of the Business Alliance.

Among them, the Speaker had reached the level of the 8th Rank, while the other two "shareholders" were all 7th Rank powerhouses.

It’s important to note that even in the Business Alliance council, those "shareholders" are not all high-tier; besides the very top, there are still a large number of Tier Six "shareholders."

Having three high-tier members already signifies considerable importance.

Nonetheless, to be cautious, Bai Yi didn’t connect to the communication projection immediately but gestured to Shang Ji to first ask:

"Can this communication line be guaranteed secure? What are the chances of it being detected by the Gemini Civilization?

I trust the three of you are aware of our situation, and we don’t want any incidents."

"Rest assured, Lord Shang Ji, in the area of the Quantum Network, our Saien Civilization indeed has significant authority.

As early as when establishing this line, we already conducted targeted trace removal. With the Gemini Civilization’s technology in the Quantum Network, detection is impossible.

Moreover, even if you don’t trust our technology, you should be able to trust our Divine Arts.

In the name of [Order], I guarantee that this communication here will not be intercepted or listened to by outsiders in any way."

One of the 7th Rank "shareholders" confidently assured, intentionally turning his head to look beyond the projection, using his God as his guarantee.

Whether they are devout or not is another matter, but Bai Yi is very certain about one thing.

It is that these God believers absolutely will not, and cannot lie.

Even ordinary people, if they have channels to communicate with God, would be subject to God’s punishment if they violate a contract established in the name of [Order].

Not to mention those already in contact with [Order] and even granted Strength by [Order], high-tier believers.

Once violated, being forsaken by God would be the best outcome, while worse could still be directly ended by God’s Divine Punishment.

Having received their assurance, Bai Yi took two steps into the projection range of the communicator.

She waved her hand, greeting as if meeting old friends:

"Your Excellency Mr. Speaker, esteemed shareholders, this might be our first official meeting, right?

I don’t know what the local time is on your side, but let me first wish you a good morning, afternoon, or evening. Have you eaten yet?"

"Ah, it’s still noon on our side. Because of your connection, we’ve been waiting here diligently, without a chance to...

Uh, no, Lord Fan Mao! We’re not here to discuss this issue."

The previously responding 7th Rank "shareholder" instinctively answered politely, suddenly realizing he nearly got off track.

Immediately, he added a bit of emphasis to his tone but then recalled that they were the ones seeking, worried it might cause Bai Yi’s displeasure, then softened his voice a bit, making his tone rather humorous.

"Haha, just joking.

Since we’ve established contact, I won’t sidestep and will get straight to the point.

Your three purposes, I suppose this is it, right?"

Bai Yi reached out into the air, the space fluctuated, locking the gaze of the three Business Alliance high-level personnel onto the item Bai Yi held in her hand.

It was a finely crafted scale adorned with numerous reliefs. On its base, the horizontal bar representing balance seemed to be permanently fixed in the most balanced position.

It’s as if this scale possessed some passive sight-taunting ability, forcibly attracting the attention of the three, their gazes following straight along Bai Yi’s hand holding the scale.

However, while their eyes were drawn to the scale, Bai Yi’s gaze was focused on their expressions.

Through the differences in the trio’s eyes, Bai Yi could easily distinguish their different stances.

Apart from their positions as [Order]’s Favored, when seeing the long-sought-after lost Divine Artifact, their eyes were filled with shock and desire.

From the eyes of the 8th Rank and one of the 7th Rank, Bai Yi could clearly feel a slight reluctance mixed with their desire, a feeling akin to desiring while disdaining.

If Bai Yi were to describe it, it would be like a server seeing an ugly wealthy man, wanting to fawn over and serve, yet feeling overwhelmingly repulsed inside.

Only the 7th Rank "shareholder" who spoke first had sheer desire in his eyes...

Well... it felt a bit too pure.

Seeing the 7th Rank’s eyes, as if a starving ghost had encountered food, Bai Yi couldn’t help but internally comment.

"Heh, Shang Ji’s guess is indeed correct, there are ’bad people’ in the Business Alliance...

At first, it was thought that, however rare, there would at least be one or two truly devout, but it turns out each has their own hidden motives...
