I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 757 Teasing the CIA

"CIA or FBI?"

"Who's the target?" Lu Zheng stroked his chin, a hint of a smile on his lips, "Couldn't possibly be me, right?"

Well, it could very likely be Lu Zheng. After all, so many people in two European countries made such a big misstep, they certainly want someone to take charge. Now, the underworld's bounty has exceeded three hundred million Euros, not a small sum even for the CIA or FBI.

Judging by the commotion the previous artifact thieves caused, they might very well be targeting this Snake Head Bronze Statue.

Even if the possibility is low, institutions in the Lighthouse Country wouldn't mind setting up a trap and keeping it under surveillance for a while. If they happen to catch the artifact thieves, it would be a huge gain both for their reputation and interests.

"No wonder, no wonder they placed the Snake Head Bronze Statue here; it's not particularly hidden, and there aren't many idle people around. It's hard to escape," Lu Zheng nodded, "Professional!"

Lu Zheng gave them a thumbs-up, then snapped his fingers. There was a flash of electricity in the air, and then the circuits inside all the cameras were electrocuted and burned out.

...

"Report! Cameras are down!"

"Switch to backup cameras."

"They're all down!"

"What?"

"It's a physical method, the manor has been breached, the target should already be inside the manor!"

"Deploy drones! Notify special operations team! Seal off nearby exits! Technicians continue to monitor nearby surveillance footage, everyone else follow me!"

"Yes!"

The next moment, four DJI drones flew out from another van, flying around the manor. Meanwhile, within a kilometer radius, several suited individuals rushed towards each entrance. Additionally, four or five people charged out from two vans around the manor, splitting into two teams and entering from the front and back gates towards the study.

People inside the manor clearly understood the situation. Seeing the CIA personnel, they immediately crouched with hands over their heads.

However, when about a dozen people broke into the study within less than two minutes, they found the pedestal where the Snake Head Bronze Statue was previously placed to be completely empty—the statue had vanished!

"Eagle, have you found the target?"

"Report, drones have detected no movement, no one has left the manor!"

"Report, no vehicles have passed through the surrounding entrances!"

The captain stared blankly at the empty pedestal, his mind racing with reports from European colleagues: there's a strong suspicion that the other party possesses optical invisibility equipment.

"Have the drones activated the loaded infrared radar?"

"Already activated, but still no discovery!"

"What? It's impossible! Unless..."

"Unless they're still inside the manor!"

The next moment, several exclamations came through their earpieces, "Not good, Drone One's been shot down!"

"Special operations team move north! Remaining drones provide immediate support!"

"Drone Two's been shot down! Didn't hear any gunshots, drones weren't shattered, must be long-range electromagnetic interference!"

"Drones Three and Four activate anti-electromagnetic interference devices, continue to support!" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Uh...report, due to budget constraints, this batch of drones used for domestic law enforcement is not equipped with anti-electromagnetic interference devices."

"..."

"Report, Drones Three and Four have been shot down!"

"Without anti-electromagnetic interference, why even bother? Are you rolling in bonus money?" The captain snapped, "Is the special operations team in position?"

"Already in position, no target spotted!"

"Request backup from higher-ups!"

Unfortunately, by the time reinforcements arrived, an hour had passed. Even the captain of this operation had no hope left, so naturally, they found no clues.

"Damn it! Are those European colleagues idiots? They only guessed optical invisibility but didn't even suspect the presence of a long-range electromagnetic interference weapon?"

One of his subordinates shrugged, "Because they didn't encounter it. Besides, long-range electromagnetic interference is a definite military-grade weapon, not usually available to most countries."

"Nonsense, it's not really a battlefield. Against a few drones without interference defenses, you could DIY something!"

"But..." The deputy shrugged, "We can report it like this!"

The captain, "..."

...

Lu Zheng, following Lin Wan's method, left behind some clues and actions that suggested possibilities yet were completely indiscernible before drifting away lightly.

"Honestly, I thought there would be other artifacts, but it's just one Snake Head Bronze Statue." Lu Zheng shook his head in resignation, "The cults in the Lighthouse Country still lack depth. It's all property deeds and stock certificates. Tacky, so tacky!"

Teasing the CIA a bit, Lu Zheng didn't immediately head back but continued to roam around the greater Los Angeles area, visiting other Eden Sect locations.

Sure enough, Lu Zheng indeed found a few more valuable items, all artifacts and treasures from other countries, which he collected one by one.

...

It must be said, in a place like Los Angeles, gossip spreads fast. Excluding state secrets, before Lu Zheng even left the borders of the Lighthouse Country, news of the stolen Eden Sect Snake Head Bronze Statue and several other national artifacts had already been covered by CNN's evening news.

By the time Lu Zheng flew back to Hua Country, the news had spread worldwide.

Of course, the humiliating details involving the CIA were omitted.

"What? Eden Sect still had Titos III's Snake-Headed Staff?" Commented a Pharaoh Country netizen, "Hahaha, maybe when I visit the Pyramid Museum next time, I might get to see it."

"Baka, there's even an Eight-Headed Giant Serpent Bronze Statue from the Shogunate Era? That's something from Japan, I hope the artifact thief doesn't send it to the wrong place this time!"

"Hahaha, let him lie and deceive, now the result is as expected—no Snake Head Bronze Statue and all other snake-shaped sacred objects are gone, such joy is unrivaled!"

"Seems like everyone is looking forward to it!"

By this time, Lu Zheng had already returned home, and Lin Wan had also returned from work, waiting for him.

"Did the CIA ask for assistance?" Lu Zheng asked with a smile, having told Lin Wan about his encounter with the CIA.

"No," Lin Wan shook her head, chuckling, "Since they didn't catch anyone at the scene, they probably won't issue a notice because it wouldn't help anyway."

"Alright then, it's the weekend tomorrow, how about a world tour tomorrow?"

Lin Wan nodded with a smile.

Lu Zheng blinked, "Then what about this time's Eight-Headed Giant Serpent Bronze Statue..."

Lin Wan responded naturally, "Of course, same as last time!"

Lu Zheng gave a thumbs-up, "Cool!"
