I'm a villain, not a devil

When talking to Black Fox before, Sean noticed something was wrong.

Although he has been submissive all his life, Black Fox is still a king-level upper-class person. How could he not have resentment towards the empire that brought him to this point?

Human nature often cannot stand the test. In a lower-level environment, resentment can easily break out, eventually causing irreparable problems.

But Black Fox lived a comfortable life, and if Sean hadn't asked him, he would have happily gone to collect protection money for Sean the next day.

And just when Sean tried to arouse the resentment in the other person's heart, what stopped the resentment was nothing but the fear of the Emperor...

This is so wrong, especially when the emperor has been ill for more than ten years, it is even more difficult to understand.

So Sean tried to use the heart of deception to make the other party face his true heart. This can be regarded as the probing ability developed by Sean himself.

Unsurprisingly, the Heart of Deception encountered resistance, but this resistance did not come from the Black Fox itself. A king-level upper level would not make Sean's abilities ineffective.

Something else is holding back the deceitful heart.

After Sean thought about it, he forcibly used his deceitful heart to eliminate the interference of resistance. Sure enough, the black fox's fear of the emperor and the natural shrinkage of the empire were suddenly reduced a lot. With a few words to guide him, his own Deep hatred will wake him up.

After that, Sean went to the Imperial Army to test it out.

Not surprisingly, the Fraudulent Heart also encountered resistance, but strangely, the resistance was much smaller than that encountered by the Black Fox.

This is very strange. Black Fox is an upper-level king-level soldier. The people he chose to test are ordinary imperial troops. They have not even stepped into the king-level army. Let alone Sean, Black Fox can crush the opponent to death with one finger.

Sean tested it again and again on the street, and he unexpectedly discovered that most ordinary people can resist deception! Even...the resistance is greater than that of the Black Fox!

Correspondingly, for occupations such as the Imperial Army and the Guard, the resistance is obviously much smaller. Generally, the higher the position, the smaller the resistance.

On the way, Sean also happened to meet a senior leader of the Imperial Army. He was probably a middle-level king-level leader, but there was almost no resistance.

After a few more days of experimentation, Sean completely discovered something was wrong.

The most ordinary and law-abiding ordinary civilians, their fear of the emperor and their awe of the empire are almost engraved in their bones, and they have even reached the point of madness.

Sean saw with his own eyes that a little girl of two or three years old just asked confusedly about His Majesty the Emperor's current situation. The people who heard it looked at her with a look of horror, and her mother even slapped her several times. slap.

They never questioned the Emperor and the Empire.

Then there are gang members such as Black Fox, who can be roughly classified as a group of people who often break the law and commit crimes. They are still afraid, but to a much lesser extent.

Public officials are quite different…

"It's like being controlled and intimidated..." Sean finally came to this conclusion.

The deeper the degree, the more irrational they become, while those public officials who are relatively more rational are loyal to the emperor and the empire...

At the same time, Sean also encounters people who are completely out of control.

After Moza and Black Fox's secret investigation, they discovered that those who are not under control often make some slightly strange actions, and some people even record things secretly.

'Undercover'... Sean immediately thought of that.

Undercover agents used to spy on people…

"His Majesty the Emperor is using an inexplicable method to control the hearts of the entire imperial capital. He wants to carve his majesty into the deepest part of everyone's heart... He is even worried that there will be undercover agents in the city. Walking in..."

This somewhat horrifying discovery made Sean feel an inexplicable chill.

What kind of top-notch desire for control...

Judging from this situation, there is a reasonable explanation for all the weird and absurd things happening in the imperial capital now.

However, what was a little strange to Sean was that the emperor was controlling people like this because he was ill and worried that he would be deprived of his power, or maybe he had other ideas.

Because, in the past few days, Sean discovered something strange during his constant experiments.

He originally thought that the emperor might use some kind of supernatural power to plant a certain thought deep into everyone's hearts. However, during an experiment, Sean had an idea and stole that 'resistance'.

He had successfully stolen thoughts, so he thought he would steal a terrifying thought.

However, what Sean stole was a small black mist.

A new implant? pollute? Sean still hasn't figured it out yet.

However, this did not stop him from unifying the underground gangs in the imperial capital.

This kind of control is indeed powerful, but it also has some negative effects, such as... the local gangs are too damn innocent.

A group of gangster leaders can actually get together for friendly meetings from time to time without worrying about someone catching them all... This kind of vigilance is gone.

Sean just mixed some hallucinogens, debilitating potions, and poisons into everyone's drinks and food, and the small indoor space allowed the full power of the lure to be unleashed.

Of course, Sean also needs these bosses to appease his subordinates and fight for him. Naturally, he cannot let them die tragically like the Red River team.

It just so happened that the cost of weakening the lure was not high, and the few undercover agents killed happened to be sacrificed to offset the cost.

Others may not be able to tell the difference, and some undercover agents have never shown any abnormality for many years, but to Sean, these people are as dazzling as lights in the dark due to the temptation of deceit.

If these undercover agents are not eliminated, the news that Sean has restored these bosses to normal will immediately reach the emperor's ears, and it will be difficult to solve it by then.

This place is the imperial capital after all, and there are probably an even number of Crimson Powerhouses, each of whom has the ability to kill Sean. Although Sean can escape without responsibility, wouldn't all his efforts these days have been in vain.

However, if no news comes back from these undercover agents for a long time, the palace will definitely find something is wrong, and someone will definitely come over to check the situation.

But for Sean, the time saved during this period is enough.

Moreover, he also discovered another situation.

You could probably call it a backlash?

Sean discovered that after he stole the unknown black mist, people who returned to normal would have emotional backlash. The most striking feature was that their attitudes suddenly changed - especially those who had all kinds of grievances buried deep in their hearts. The bosses, after waking up one by one, seemed to realize that something was wrong with them before, and their hatred towards the emperor and the empire skyrocketed.

They were the ones who started rebelling against Tiangang when they woke up, and every one of them gritted their teeth.

The bosses have all gone back to carry out Sean's orders. They will find ways to get the other bosses who have not come to the scene, and then turn them into their staunch comrades!

Of course, this is all for their own good.
