Genshin Impact, I'm Slime

Chapter 443 Bitter Black Salt
Yelan gulped down the tea soup prepared by Jueyun Jiaojiao, licked her lips involuntarily, and then explained to Farmas in a sincere tone why Wen Yuan looked at him.

"...Then Miss Yelan, as you said, the surveillance of me by the intelligence personnel of Yanshang Tea House was a complete coincidence?"

Famas quietly listened to Yelan's narration, and asked with great interest.

"good……"

Perhaps it was because the gaze cast by Famas was too indifferent, and the sense of contempt revealed in those red pupils was too hot.

Looking at the young man in front of him who had no clear position and could give people a great sense of oppression with just a few words, Ye Lan felt an unprecedented crisis.

Force, strategy, knowledge...these things that need to be accumulated by the human family for hundreds of years are all things that come and go as soon as they are called to the old demon gods.

As the guardian in the shadow of Yangang, Yelan doesn't mind using any means to solve all the problems that may threaten the country, but she also knows that unless the Emperor Yanwang is resurrected, it will be difficult to shake the law with all the strength of Hong Kong. Max half.

Sitting in front of a powerful demon god with almost no weaknesses, Ye Lan, who was used to controlling the whole situation, felt absurdly helpless.

"Well, I'll tentatively believe it's a misunderstanding."

Famas crossed his arms and nodded without hesitation in approval of Ye Lan's words.

Ye Lan, who was ready to bear the wrath of the gods, was a little surprised seeing the other party being so talkative, but what the boy said next made Ye Lan frown slightly.

"Then, can Ms. Yelan pay for the losses caused by this misunderstanding?"

Famas stared at the other party's emerald green eyes with meaning, and Ye Lan could only sigh in his heart, and responded in a cold and slightly deep voice: "Then what compensation do you want?"

Finally talking about the topic he was interested in, Farmas thought for a moment and looked out of the window of the tea room. It happened to be evening at this time, the clouds in the sky were dyed in gradual and magnificent colors, and the last rays of the setting sun fell on the sea. sparkling.

"Miss Ye Lan, as the intelligence officer directly under Tianquan Star, will definitely hear from Ning Lan, the head of Yinyuan Hall."

"I'm very curious about her life and whereabouts... and what she's planning."

Famas proposed compensation terms, and upon hearing Ning Lan's name, Ye Lan's eyes widened suddenly, and then she looked suspiciously at the normal-looking boy.

What Famas didn't know was that apart from Pantalone who had already arrived at Liyue Port, Ning Lan from Yinyuan Hall, Zhongli from Past Life Hall, and a traveler from a foreign land were all Ye Lan's key surveillance targets. .

"We have done background checks on all the residents of Liyue...that Miss Ning Lan naturally has one too."

Ye Lancui narrowed her eyes slightly, and she didn't shy away from secretly investigating the identity information of the residents. On the contrary, her body was tense. purpose of things.

"Your Majesty Harpas, may I take the liberty to ask about your relationship with Miss Ning Lan?"

Famas didn't expect Yelan's reaction to be so weird. With his normal expression, he casually responded to the other party's question: "I don't have any friendship with her. I'm just asking for an old friend who was recently revived."

Hearing Famas' unreliable answer, Ye Lan frowned tightly.

Of course she knew that this war lord could perform the miracle of bringing the dead back to life, and the two names of Yinyuan Hall and Ning Lan involved too many people and events. Without being able to judge the other party's position, Ye Lan really didn't want to use these The secret is revealed.

But Farmas stared at the pensive Yelan with piercing eyes, waiting for the other party's response.

"Your Majesty Harpas, have you heard of the [Wish Stone] produced by the Layer Rock Abyss?"

Yelan hesitated to speak several times, and calmly sent a message to the subordinates who had quietly emptied the entire tea room at this time, asking them to keep on guard, and then lowered her voice to ask.

"No."

Although he was somewhat familiar with the name Wish Stone, Famas still shook his head in denial without hesitation.

Hearing this, Ye Lan understood immediately, and began to explain the big wish stone case that shocked Liyue and forced Qixing to set up a rock key seal.

"This matter started three years ago. At that time, some miners claimed that when they were digging minerals in the mines of the stratum rock abyss, they accidentally discovered a certain kind of ore that was said to be able to fulfill all wishes, and sold it. Profit-seeking attracts common people and wealthy businessmen to loot.”

"However, a few days later, the first few miners who unearthed the [Wishing Stone] became insane and lost their minds. Their family members sued Yujingtai on the grounds that the protection measures for workers in the mining area were not in place, and Qixing investigated the incident overnight. Because of this, they used thunderous means to clean up the members of Shenglu Hall and Huishan Hall who were in charge of the Layer Rock mining area at that time, and after several evaluations, sealed off the Layer Rock Juyuan mining area."

Ye Lan tapped her temples with her fingers. Her memory is quite good, and she has read many secret files. When talking about the inside story of this kind of gray area case, she can be said to be very clear.

"In the end, the survey released by the General Affairs Department identified this ore as a crystallization of toxic substances that can emit radiation. The so-called wish fulfillment is nothing but an illusion caused by the nerves and brain being changed by radiation."

"Even though Seven Stars has explained the cause and effect of the matter clearly, and confiscated fragments of wish stones circulating in the market, to this day, there are still people who firmly believe that the wish stones exist."

"And among these believers, Miss Ning Lan is included."

Ye Lan's expressionless explanation finally led the topic to Yinyuan Hall.

"A week ago, a batch of "Wish Stone Fragments" that claimed to come from a secret channel under the mine flowed into Liyuefang City. It was rumored that the samples flowed out from the hands of the foolish researchers who had urgently retreated from the stratum rock abyss. A private sale by a big man under the shadow of Seven Stars... No matter what, this thing is not available in the market, and you can only buy it through the introduction of acquaintances. "

Ye Lan took off the brocade bag hanging from her waist, twisted a small piece out of it with her thumb and forefinger, and placed it on the table.

"Blue, glowing, thin, and the workmanship is just that, in fact, it's similar to the crude amulets of scenic spots, and there's nothing special about it."

And Famas saw the sample displayed by Ye Lan, and already knew what the so-called wish stone was.

"The main body of the [Wish Stone] is a big pillar that several people can't hold, exuding blue light, with inscriptions engraved on the pillar, suspended in the air deep in an underground mine, and occasionally you can hear A low chant came from the stone pillar."

Famas held his forehead helplessly, and described the appearance of the Nail of Cold Sky in as much detail as possible.

"You described it very accurately."

Ye Lan stared at the young man curiously, as if wondering why the other party knew so clearly, but she quickly realized that Famas is a demon god that has existed for thousands of years after all, and it is not surprising that she has seen similar things.

"So do you have any idea about the [Wish Stone], or the origin of this stone pillar from heaven?"

Seeking secrets is the nature of every intelligence officer, even Yelan is no exception. She asked the question very seriously, but Famas's response was a bit of a joke.

"Of course, I broke several stone pillars like this back then."

"I knew it would have the effect of making a wish, so I collected those fragments and made a wish when I had nothing to do. Morax choked on tea and fell while walking."

Famas nodded with a smile, and then asked Yelan: "So according to your investigation, what does Miss Ning Lan plan to use these wish stones for?"

Hearing Famas' question, Yelan's expression suddenly became serious, and the bracelet on her right hand flickered, reflecting her mysterious expression.

"Yinyuan Hall...maybe planning to use this to invite Xian Dianyi."

"It's just that the fairy they invited is a demon god named [Heulia]."
