People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

Just when she closed her eyes and prepared to die.

A plate of cut bread, fried meat and a glass of sunset fruit juice suddenly appeared in front of her, catching the already desperate Kelai a little off guard.

"Don't worry, eat something first, I'll wait for you to tell the truth."

After putting the food and drinks away, Rhodes sat back on the chair, folded his arms, and had an expression that said, "If you don't tell me today, I'll just spend it with you."

"You won't kill me?"

After hesitating for a while, Kelai bit his lip and asked.

This time.

Kelai's voice was no longer as timid as a kitten's as it was yesterday, but closer to that of a calm and collected adult.

Judging from his voice and tone of voice, he was completely different from yesterday.

"Why kill you?"

"You just stole my food and destroyed my land, it's not that serious."

"But."

"You must work for me here, repair my destroyed fields, and use your labor to compensate for my losses."

"Of course."

"before that."

"You still have to explain yourself clearly so that I can trust you."

Rhodes chuckled: "As I said before, if you want to live a stable life here, it is necessary to be open and honest with each other, Xiao——Ke——Lai——"

Chapter 47 Let’s go and hoe the fields with me

After all, Kelai couldn't defeat Rhodes.

Although she was very reluctant, she still confessed honestly.

From the time she was sent to the laboratory to undergo human experiments, to the time she successfully escaped from an unexpected situation in the laboratory, to the time she wandered all the way to Aru Village in the desert, she continued to talk until she was so hungry the night before that she couldn't bear it, and then she Going to Rod's vegetable patch to steal vegetables to eat.

Collet told almost everything she could tell.

I definitely didn’t explain everything.

But overall, I am not lying, I am telling the truth.

She also told her the reason for staying in Aru Village.

It was to avoid the pursuers from behind.

Although Kelai was sent to the doctor's laboratory since she was a child, she still knew the reputation of Aru Village, a pure land in the desert, from other 'experiments' in the laboratory.

The rule against killing.

It didn't happen after Candice took over as Guardian.

But the guardians of all generations have always had this rule.

Anyone who dared to cause trouble in Aru Village was, without exception, fed to wild animals by the guardians.

That's what Cole had in mind.

That's why she agreed to it based on Rhode's request to take her in.

This is what she said.

It's pretty much the same as Rhode's guess.

"Okay, since you've already told the truth."

"Then let me tell the truth."

Rhodes chuckled: "I don't keep you here because I pity you and want to help you. I also have some personal purposes."

"I know."

Kelai didn't show any surprise, lowered his head and replied.

"Tsk, tsk, you are really brave."

"You know that I may have bad intentions in keeping you, but you still dare to think of using me in turn."

Rhode's words made Kelai bury his head deeper and deeper.

no way.

The facts have been proven.

In front of Rhodes, let alone using him, Kelai couldn't even conceal his true intentions.

then.

Then Rhodes' voice sounded again.

"In a few days, I will ask someone to seal the things on you."

"When the time comes, just say whatever the person asks you. Tell that person your previous encounters in the laboratory and the situation inside."

The person Rhodes is looking for.

It was the Dafeng Disciplinary Officer Sainuo whom I had met once in Kavanyi.

Of course.

Rhodes didn't have the connections to invite this big shot.

I have to ask Candice to help with this.

In addition to helping Kelai seal the demon remnants in his body, Seno was invited to come.

There is another reason.

That is, Rhodes needs to use Seno's power to expel the Fools forces entrenched near Aru Village.

They were the same group of people who used Kelai for human experiments.

Fools abound.

This is the organization of the Solstice Kingdom among the seven nations of Teyvat, and is nominally the diplomatic mission of the Solstice Kingdom to foreign countries.

It's just that they are not a serious diplomatic organization.

Anyway, as far as Rhode knew, there were a lot of things like assassination, infiltration, smuggling, robbery, inciting rebellion and so on.

Among them, the biggest thing that fools have done in Xumi.

It’s the Vibrant House not far from Aru Village.

It was also the research place of the second executive officer Dotore, who was extremely fearful of Rhodes when he obtained the second Eye of God.

The laboratory in the desert where Kelai was injected with the demon residue potion was a research site under his name.

After returning from the rainforest area, Rhodes had been thinking about how to hide himself better.

Now Cole appears.

This gave Rhodes a new idea.

He definitely couldn't afford to offend the fools, not even with the Blazing Hunting Beast and Aru Village.

But Seno can do it!

In addition to surpassing Xumi in terms of military force, in terms of background and identity, he is the face of Xumi. In terms of power, his Dafeng Disciplinary Officer can be said to be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. He has absolute law enforcement power in Xumi.

It just so happened that Dotore's human experiment actually violated one of the six major prohibitions of the Ecclesiastical Order [Research on Human Evolution].

There is a witness named Ke Lai.

Xeno can directly convict Vitality House and Dotore as guilty. Even if they cannot be dealt with according to the rules of the Order, Vitality House will inevitably be forcibly closed.

In this way, even if Dotore still stays in Sumeru, he won't be so close to Aru Village.

As for whether using Collet as a witness to report Dotore would lead to retaliation from him.

Rhodes is not worried about this.

Once Seno successfully confronts him, Dotore's attention will no longer be on Aru Village.

Now it’s up to Cole.

As long as she can explain things clearly to Seno, then there will be no problem.

Think of this.

Rhodes couldn't help but look at Kelai with much more enthusiasm.

But even that’s all for the sake of it.

Kelai still had doubts: "What will the person you mentioned ask me?"

"Didn't I just say that?"

"Ask what happened to you."

"The exact location of the laboratory."

"I may also make some notes, and I will also use a photo camera to take photos for your files."

"I probably won't ask anything else."

Rhodes thought for a moment and gave a rough answer.

That said.

Kelai almost knew it in his mind.

But she still didn't agree immediately and continued to ask: "Why do you want to help me?"

"help you?"

"wrong."

Rhodes chuckled, shook his finger and said: "I'm helping myself. As for why I took you in, it's because you destroyed my things. When you pay back all you owe me, you can do it at any time." Go, go wherever you like, I don’t care about you.”

Now Kelai was completely relieved, nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to you."

"Well, that's good."

Rhodes was very satisfied with Collet's performance.

Next.

It's a three-part agreement between the two of them.

First, before the Demonic Residue is sealed, Ke Lai cannot enter Aru Village casually. This is for her own good. The symptoms of the demon scale disease plus the scars caused by the Demonic Residue medicine will make the villagers of Aru Village very kind-hearted. , they would still throw stones when they saw Ke Lai like this.

Second, we can no longer use the power of the Demon God's remnants. Kelai's spirit has been corroded by the Demon God's resentment and has developed a serious manic problem. If he continues to use this power, Rhodes may not wait for Seno to come over. There is no cure.

Third, eat well and don’t just eat sweets.

This was also the request that made Ke Lai the most nervous.

Sugar is a good thing and makes you feel happy when you eat it.

Compared with when you are wandering and trying to stuff your stomach with anything, eating candy is really a very addictive thing.

"Keep eating sweets, or you may lose all your teeth."

Rhodes stated the reason for his request seriously.

"I see."

Kelai responded dejectedly.

The time for candor is now over.

The two people who had explained everything clearly no longer had the pretentious look they had yesterday, and even looking at each other's faces felt much more pleasing to the eye.

Wait for Kelai to finish breakfast.

Rhodes threw a hoe that was about the same height as Kelai.

"Take it and follow me to the hoeing field."
