Chapter 495: Catching a Big Fish
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the thin subordinate finished speaking.
Tristan Yandell sneered, “Luther has planted a hidden agent beside my big brother? He wants to be beaten up!”
“Jeremy Norton’s identity cannot be confirmed for the time being. His personal information has been sealed using the five-layered secret file method. In recent years, not only the northern army has been using this method, but the three armies and nine departments have also been using this method.” The thin subordinate reminded Tristan not to jump to conclusions so early.
This matter might not be that simple.
Jeremy might not be a member of the northern army!
Tristan frowned slightly and said decisively, “Decrypt Jeremy Norton’s personal information! ”
“Alright!”
The thin subordinate began to decipher the personal information in this office.
The first personal file could be viewed with B-rank clearance.
The second file required A-rank clearance.
In this file, Jeremy’s identity and background had been changed drastically.
He was no longer a villager from River Village south of Preston. Instead, he was a member of the imperial guards of the Central Plains main team, possessing the strength of a ninth-level warlord.
Tristan took a glance and said in a bad mood, “It’s fake. Decrypt all five of his files. ”
“Decrypting the third file requires S-rank clearance!”
The thin subordinate was a little shocked and could not help but look at Tristan.
Currently, there were only three governors with S-rank authority in the entire governor office.
Governor Westley Hader, as well as Tristan and Nico Yates, the two deputy governors.
The three of them had S-rank clearance and could access all the secrets of the governor office.
Tristan personally deciphered it and frowned, saying, “If the third file requires
S-rank clearance, then who can decipher the last two files?”
The latter two files were definitely of a higher security level.
As they were talking, the third file had already been unlocked. Tristan personally checked it and frowned, “War God level!”
“Huh?”
The thin subordinate was shocked.
He knew very well in his heart that no matter which faction it was, the loss of a War God level figure would cause heartache.
War Gods were already big shots.
Using the person as a hidden agent was considered a big deal.
The key point was, which faction did Jeremy belong to?
Moreover, he had also gotten Bravdon’s attention!
Tristan looked at the electronic file and fell into deep thought.
Jeremy’s personal strength was clearly introduced in the electronic file.
Beginner level War God!
As for his identity and background, he was already a member of the governor office.
A War God of the governor office!
This identity was something.
However, this identity was definitely fake.
Tristan had been in the governor office for three years, but he did not know that the governor office had a War God called Jeremy Norton.
Then, what was the background of this guy?
Tristan did not say anything and headed straight to the main hall of the governor office.
In the hall, Westley was sitting on the golden dragon chair, resting with his eyes closed. Nico was wearing a black raincoat, standing quietly at the side.
“What is it?”
Westley slowly opened his eyes.
Tristan stepped onto the steps and said, “Big Brother entered the secret database and retrieved a set of five files.”
“Hidden agent files?” Westley took the tablet device calmly.
There was no need for Tristan to explain.
Westley frowned slightly. “This Jeremy Norton is quite something. The third level of file information requires S-rank clearance. When did this file appear in the secret database?”
“Reporting to the governor. There is no record of that!”
The thin subordinate stood in the hall with a bitter face, ready to be punished.
Westley’s eyes turned cold as he said indifferently, “As the guardian of the secret database, such a secret file has been placed in the database, yet here you are telling me that you don’t know how it got there?”
“Please punish me. I was negligent!”
The subordinate knelt on the ground; his head covered in cold sweat.
Seeing that there were no outsiders in the hall, Tristan curled his lips slightly.
“He’s one of us, so don’t make things difficult for him.” Westley frowned slightly. A glint flashed across Nico’s eyes.
Tristan said he was one of them.
That meant that the master of the secret database was someone from the northern army.
It was most likely a hidden agent!
The database guardian knelt on the ground, his face green.
In the blink of an eye, everyone knew his identity.
How could he still be called a hidden agent?
He might as well switch to being an open agent!
The key was that the northern army’s open agents were all first-class big shots.
He was not qualified to become an open agent!
Look at the open agents sent out by the northern army.
The three governors of the governor office were open agents.
The commanders of the five main teams were open agents of the northern army.
The five captains were in charge of the core imperial guards of the five main teams, and they were also open agents of the northern army.
The entire northern army was supporting them.
The person standing behind them was the Northern King.
The open agents stood between heaven and earth. Whoever dared to kill them
openly would be provoking the northern army.
They would be labeled as a betrayer by Braydon!
The northern army would kill these kinds of people if they met them.
“If that’s the case, then this secret file didn’t come in through the northern territory!” Westley said softly.
The secret database guardian was a hidden agent. Even he did not know about this five-layered information file.
It meant that the person in the file was not from the northern army!
The database guardian said softly, “Actually, we can’t be sure of that. Second Master controls all the hidden agents. Every hidden agent is in direct contact with the northern territory. We don’t know each other’s identity. If it’s an extremely dangerous situation, then hidden agents are allowed to work together to overcome the situation and cover each other so that they can escape.”
Other than that, there would be no connection between the hidden agents.
This was also to prevent any problems from happening to the hidden agents. If even one hidden agent had any problems, it would cause the entire line of brothers to die in vain.
A golden Qilin level hidden agent would have a few hidden agents around him to assist him in doing things.
The regimental commander of the second legion of the northern army, Luther Carden, was known as the Second Master.
It was rumored that he had 100,000 hidden agents in his hands.
In fact, Luther secretly controlled 800,000 hidden agents.
Each hidden agent had a number.
The top 100 hidden agents were all at the golden Qilin level.
In the northern army, they were classified as S-rank secrets.
S-rank secrets could only be accessed by the higher ups of the northern army.
Only Braydon Neal and Luther knew about one portion of the hidden agents.
Back then, his teacher, Finley Yanagi, went missing, causing a portion of the hidden agents to go missing. Until now, they had not been able to contact them.
They were the older generation hidden agents.
The biggest problem was that they only acknowledged the old commander, Finley Yanagi.
Some had been hiding in enemy countries for decades. There was nothing they could do about them not acknowledging Braydon as their commander.
You don’t even know who he is.
There was no way they could settle any scores with these old hidden agents.
The database guardian’s words made Nico frown. Nico then said, “I’ll contact
Second Brother and ask him about it. Perhaps he can tell us the answer.”
“You don’t have to ask. If Jeremy Norton is really a member of the northern army, the fact that Second Brother could quietly record the secret file in our secret database without leaving any traces shows that he obviously doesn’t want to tell us!”
Westley chuckled.
“There is another possibility. Maybe Jeremy Norton is not from the northern army!” Tristan sneered..
