"A name..."
Xi Yan lowered his head in thought.
"Hang on, let me think."
An intelligence organization, covert agents, monitoring society, carrying out missions?
That sounds familiar. I think I saw something like that somewhere in my previous life...
Xi Yan suddenly raised his index finger. "Oh, I've got an idea!"
"How about calling it the Gesta-"
(Shen He: What did you just say?)
"No, that name seems a little extreme."
"Let's call it the [Imperial Surveillance Unit]!"
Beta now proposed a name that very much reflected a machine intelligence's style.
"Or the [Imperial Inspectorate] would work too."
"No, let's just call it [Ashes]. It means we'll grind those hostile nations to ashes." Xi Yan casually tossed out a simple name that had little meaning but sounded good and seemed profound, then used his authority as marshal to make the final decision.
"That's settled, then. Mr. Yu Shuo, where will our Ashes organization have its headquarters?"
"Underground. Construction has already begun, and it'll be finished soon," Yu Shuo said without hesitation.
"Good!"
Xi Yan looked delighted.
He raised his wristband to take a look, then said, "You're in charge of running this organization properly. I've got something important to deal with."
"Uh, could you at least give me some instructions?" Seeing that Xi Yan had urgent business to attend to, Yu Shuo hurriedly asked.
Xi Yan turned around, thought for a moment, then said solemnly, "Our organization will be doing dirty work. That includes surveillance, assassination, and espionage. We'll even need to send our agents into enemy nations to carry out missions!"
"So?" Yu Shuo's gaze grew serious too.
"Make absolutely sure to strengthen their loyalty training!"
Xi Yan said firmly, "Our agents must be prepared to die for their country and sacrifice their lives!"
*Then we can plot attacks
