"Have you heard? The General Affairs Department has also become a restricted area. It's not safe in Liyue Harbor anymore."

"The news is too outdated. If you get a little closer to the General Affairs Department, you can see it. It's a large black shadow. It is said that the shadow of anyone who gets close to it will be sucked in, and they will go crazy in a few days."

"Oh my god, it's so scary that it can even suck away shadows."

"Not only that, it will become even bigger after absorbing it. I estimate that it won't be long before it covers the entire Liyue Harbor."

Kevin felt a sinking feeling in his heart when he heard this.

Did the shadow spread so fast? I remember that Bai Ran died only two kilometers away from the General Affairs Department.

The distance is not that far, but if you consider the speed at which the shadow spreads, it is really terrifying.

Even Dagon can't solve this problem.

I really don’t know what to do in the future.

Forget it, let’s ignore this for now. It can’t be solved for the time being, so I’ll just leave it alone.

I hope the immortal has a way to suppress it and slow down its spread.

Thinking of this, Kevin continued to calm down and listen to the movements around him.

"Hey, when will the Emperor show up? Liyue Harbor is almost collapsing. I have some news. It is said that only two of the Seven Stars are left."

"Damn, there are only two of the Seven Stars left, where is the Immortal?"

"It is said that the immortals have gathered together, but they have not shown up much. Perhaps the emperor has..."

Having said this, this man realized that almost everyone in Wanmingtang had their eyes on him.

There was a hint of danger, anger, and hidden fear in his eyes.

The man smiled awkwardly and rounded up his words. "Perhaps the Emperor has integrated the Seven Stars of the Immortals and is secretly protecting Liyue. Sooner or later, the shadow will be eliminated."

After saying that, everyone stopped looking at him and started eating their breakfast.

In Liyue, being disrespectful to immortals could cause public outrage, let alone the Emperor.

What's more, such discouraging words are really inappropriate to say.

It does no good except adding to your troubles.

Kevin sighed softly. To be honest, the predicament that Liyue is facing now cannot be solved by the Emperor alone.

The enemy comes from a higher level world, how to fight?

The Emperor had most likely met with some misfortune, or even if not, he had probably gone into hiding.

If he were the emperor, he would definitely not stand up.

If you stand out, you will be a sitting duck. Although the evil god has the power to crush everyone, he is still subject to some restrictions.

Only by hiding in the dark and finding the weakness can you have a chance of survival, but if you stand in the light, you will die immediately and there will be no hope.

The immortals used to act in the same way, not as ostentatious as the Seven Stars.

There was nothing the Seven Stars could do. Even though they were nearly wiped out, someone had to be in charge of such a huge Liyue. If they all hid, then there would be complete chaos.

Kevin also thought about asking the Emperor for help.

But this is as difficult as finding Manye.

If this kind of existence doesn't want to appear, you basically can't find it.

Kevin has always been pessimistic about the future of Liyue. The reason he rebelled was because waiting for death was not Kevin's style.

Don’t think about these anymore. As for the Emperor, I will find a chance to ask the immortals later. Maybe they know some actions.

boom.

Just as Kevin was lost in thought, there was a noise at the door of Wanmin Hall.

I saw six people put the coffin on the ground at the door, came in and sat down.

One of them shouted, "Master, please take care of the coffin. We want to have some breakfast."

Master Mao turned around and looked at the six people, then smiled and said, "Okay."

After saying that, he shouted to the door.

"Lin Zhi, carry the coffin to the spirit-guiding platform."

"it is good."

Six people came to the door. Lin Zhi waved his hand, asked them to lift the coffin, and left Wanmin Hall.

The guests who were having breakfast all looked unhappy, and some even shouted directly.

"Master Mao, your shop accepts all kinds of customers, even coffin bearers."

"Yeah, it was okay that he didn't come often before, but now I can see him even when I'm having breakfast."

"There are so many dead people to worry about. It's already this time. Why do we still have to care about so many things? We may die someday, so why would we have the time to care about them?"

The words were full of dissatisfaction towards the coffin bearers.

Master Mao advised helplessly: "I can't help it. We can't abandon the custom. The pressure on the Hall of Rebirth is too great this time. As a Liyue person, we have to help."

After this was said, no one said anything.

But Kevin heard something fishy.

There was a custom before, the spirit-guiding platform.

The most outrageous thing is how a restaurant owner and a funeral business could cooperate together.

But it's normal during special periods. Let me ask first to see if there are any clues?

Kevin always felt that there might be a head in the coffin.

If you want to collect and transport heads, a coffin is indeed a perfect tool to hide them for transportation.

Maybe if we find the gathering point of the coffins, we can find that place.

But isn’t this too easy?

It's not easy, right? After all, it's a human head, how could anyone openly carry it on the street and transport it in a bag?

In other words, the work of transporting heads is done in the Hall of Rebirth, and that is what Zhongli said they were doing.

To be honest, is it because they have been replaced long ago?

Kevin thought of the day when he had just escaped from the Qun Yu Pavilion and met the lively girl, Hu Tao.

But nothing unusual was found at the time.

Forget it, there’s no point thinking about these things, just look at those coffins.

If Dagon has already started the recycling operation, then most of the people eating here are still human.

As long as there is a majority, it will be fine.

After deciding on the action, Kevin asked Master Mao, "Master Mao, what is the soul-guiding platform?"

Chef Mao was busy cooking, and didn't even look at Kevin. He sighed and said, "Speaking of the soul-guiding platform, we have to talk about the new funeral ceremony in the Wangsheng Hall. The dead are placed in a coffin and then carried to places the deceased has been to. It is said that there are souls in those places, and they need to be led into the coffin.

I can say that almost everyone has been to this place, so I specially built a spirit-calling platform here. Alas, there are too many dead people, it's uncomfortable to look at. "

Kevin's brows knitted together.

"That means there are spirit summoning platforms in all crowded places in Liyue Harbor, right?"

"Yes, I'm not exaggerating. The flow of people here is quite good, so it's normal to have a spirit-calling platform here." Master Mao explained specially.

He is a very humble person and would not deliberately show off how good his business is.

But he didn't know that this was not what Kevin wanted to focus on.

"I am quite interested in this ceremony. Master Mao, can you tell me the detailed process?"

Master Mao kept moving his hands, and when he heard this, he finally turned around and looked at Kevin.

After seeing Kevin's outfit, Master Mao became a little confused and became alert.

The Fatui, this is not an organization with good people.
