The immortal body is called Teevat
Chapter 91 Reaching a Settlement
Ye Lan had a very long nightmare. She dreamed that Wu Cheng took her to a small dark room and tortured her with various methods. Wu Cheng smiled as if he enjoyed seeing Ye Lan in pain. He even asked her to talk about how she felt.
Then Wu Cheng, as if he was tired of playing, tied up Ye Lan with a blood-colored thread and gently pulled her, and then she turned into a pile of human fragments.
Later, while cleaning, Ye Lan could even clearly hear Wu Cheng sighing, "It's so boring. I have to clean up every time I'm done. I can just throw it under the tree to replenish nutrients. It's time to find a new target..."
Then Ye Lan was instantly awakened by this nightmare. She felt a burning pain on the back of her head, probably because she was hit hard by some blunt object. When Ye Lan wanted to move, she found that her movements seemed to be restricted by the ropes.
Although the rope was tied in an amateurish way and had many flaws, it did restrict Ye Lan's further actions.
Ye Lan looked up at the sky to check the time, and the sky had already turned dark. Ye Lan was very glad that she had not become Wu Cheng's target. After all, having handled hundreds of cases, Ye Lan knew that a perverted murderer like Wu Cheng had strict requirements for choosing his victims.
Moreover, these perverted murderers have all suffered extreme mental trauma, which is why they choose to vent their anger by killing. In their eyes, the people they kill deserve to die, no matter who they are.
Ye Lan thought that she did not meet Wu Cheng's crime conditions, so she was able to survive until now and was abandoned here. It was quite ironic.
Ye Lan couldn't help but feel lucky that she survived the disaster. This was the first time she experienced the feeling of defeat. It was the first time she felt the mixture of loss and helplessness in her heart.
Before this, she had been able to solve more than a dozen extremely dangerous cases and arrest the murderers by herself. Now it seemed that she could not solve this case by herself.
But none of this is important now. He knows that if a powerful and psychopathic criminal like Wu Cheng is allowed to continue to be unchecked, it is hard to imagine what he will do. She must now return to the General Affairs Department to report the whole story.
Just as Ye Lan was trying to break free from the ropes, he heard the voice he least wanted to hear from afar: "If I were you, I wouldn't do such a trick. If you move again, I can't guarantee your safety."
Ye Lan looked towards the place where the sound came from. There was indeed a campfire in front of her, and on the other side of the campfire there was a pair of blood-red pupils staring at him, with a look that was quite vigilant and bloodthirsty.
Ye Lan knew that those eyes were filled with worry: "This guy didn't leave. Is he waiting for me to wake up and then torture me? He's such a pervert."
Ye Lan thought that she would not be able to escape death today, and at this moment, Ye Lan looked at Wu Cheng with a determined look. As if she was ready to die.
Wu Cheng looked at Ye Lan with a puzzled look and asked, "Why are you so determined? It's as if I can kill you in the next second. I won't kill you."
Ye Lan caught the key words in Wu Cheng's words. It seemed that this guy at least didn't intend to kill her now. Ye Lan even thought that there seemed to be room for discussion between them.
Since there is something to talk about, it means there are unlimited opportunities for turning around, and in terms of negotiation, Ye Lan, who has received training from the General Affairs Department, thinks that he is much better than Wu Cheng.
Then Ye Lan comforted Wu Cheng: "Since you don't plan to kill me, it proves that you should talk to me about something first, right?"
Wu Cheng added a piece of wood to the bonfire and said to Ye Lan, "No, I just want to go to Fontaine from Liyue. I don't understand why you Liyue officials attach so much importance to me?"
Ye Lan was no longer nervous at this time, but stated a fact to Wu Cheng calmly: "Because the crime you committed was extremely bad. So we must solve the case and give an explanation to the citizens of Liyue."
Wu Cheng said calmly, "What explanation? What about the families who lost their children? Those I killed were all evildoers who had committed crimes that could not be forgiven. There was not a single innocent person whose hands were not stained with blood. In the end, I have eliminated harm for your Liyue. Why bother forcing me? I really don't want to have any contact with the guys from your General Affairs Department."
Ye Lan adjusted her posture to try to make herself comfortable, and then said to Wu Cheng in a rather reproachful tone: "This human trafficking organization has a deep connection with the Kingdom of Winter. Our General Affairs Department has been keeping an eye on them, and we are just waiting for the next transaction to catch them all in one fell swoop. But who knew that there would be such a variable as you."
Wu Cheng couldn't help but want to laugh after hearing Ye Lan's words. Was this another reason to sacrifice a small part for the sake of the overall situation? No wonder this human trafficking organization has been able to exist for so long.
Wu Cheng mocked him, “Is this justice? Your Liyue General Affairs Department found out my identity within a few days. There’s no reason why you don’t know about the existence of that human trafficking organization.”
"The General Affairs Department allowed them to use it as a bait, but have you ever thought about how the families who were destroyed because of them feel? It's not as fair as my justice..."
Ye Lan was so weak that she couldn't utter a word. Although Wu Cheng's words were very harsh, Ye Lan could not refute Wu Cheng's words no matter what she said.
Wu Cheng then spread his hands helplessly and said, "Let me tell you a fact. Even if I don't show up, you won't be able to wait for the Winter Faints of this human trafficking organization to come online, or he probably won't appear in Teyvat anymore."
Ye Lan was not a stupid person. After listening to Wu Cheng's words, she knew that the leader of the human trafficking organization was probably killed by Wu Cheng, otherwise Wu Cheng would not be able to be so confident that he would never appear in the continent of Teyvat.
Although Ye Lan was inclined to think this was the outcome, she still asked, "You must have killed the leader of the human trafficking organization in Zhidong Country, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have made such a promise."
Wu Cheng nodded and replied to Ye Lan in a simple manner: "Of course, since you are the replacement of Liyue's intelligence department, you should not be unaware of the killing of Mondstadt's dragon Usa, right?"
The reason why Wu Cheng brought up this excuse was, firstly, to exchange this information for what he wanted, and secondly, to tell the people in the General Affairs Department that I had killed even dragons, so it doesn't matter who messes with me.
Ye Lan continued to test Wu Cheng. Since Wu Cheng had no intention of killing her now, it would be a good idea to get the information she wanted from him during the conversation.
Although the incident of the dragon Ursa in Mondstadt had already reached Liyue, and almost everyone in Liyue Port knew something about it, it did not seem to be a very valuable event.
But according to the official statement, the patriarch of the Leggenfind family was attacked by the evil dragon Ursa, and the Knights dispatched a large number of troops and suffered considerable casualties before they killed the evil dragon Ursa.
When faced with this news, the staff of Liyue General Affairs Department had a unanimous opinion: this matter is by no means that simple, there must be something else going on.
The one who knows you better than you know yourself is your enemy. This sentence may explain why all the staff of Liyue General Affairs Department have such a unified opinion on Mondstadt.
Liyue and Mondstadt's territories are connected, so they naturally have to deal with each other on a daily basis. The top leaders of both countries are willing to promote peace between the two countries, and they have always been in a friendly state. With the exchanges of personnel and goods between the two sides, their understanding of each other has become increasingly profound and familiar.
The staff of Liyue General Affairs Department do not believe that Mondstadt would pay such a price to kill the evil dragon Ursa. This is not in line with the style of Mondstadt's top leaders. If Mondstadt's top leaders were really so tough, they would not have allowed the evil dragon Ursa to wreak havoc in Mondstadt for a thousand years.
So after discussion, the General Affairs Department gave two most likely truths. One is that Mond did have reasons to do so, and the other is that the people who killed the dragon Ursa were not the Knights of Favonius, but someone else.
This matter has also been recently set as a high-priority investigation by the General Affairs Department. However, due to the lack of more intelligence and evidence to prove these two conclusions, the matter has been shelved.
However, Ye Lan felt that perhaps the perverted demon in front of him knew about this matter, or perhaps he himself had participated in this incident.
Ye Lan asked Wu Cheng in a rather curious tone: "You suddenly mentioned what happened a month ago. I'm afraid this incident must have a lot to do with you. Why don't you tell me about it?"
Wu Cheng immediately gave his answer to Ye Lan's question: "The killing of the demon dragon Wusa is indeed closely related to me, but why should I tell you for no reason?"
"If you want this information, you should exchange it for something. As an intelligence investigator of the General Affairs Department, you should know this."
Ye Lan also said directly to Wu Cheng in a rather relaxed manner: "What conditions do you want? Of course, it must be within my ability. I cannot achieve anything beyond my ability."
Wu Cheng put the firewood he had picked up into the bonfire and then said to Ye Lan, "After I tell you the information you want, don't follow me around and investigate me anymore. By the way, prepare a convoy for me to go to Fontaine. I just hate being investigated and bothered by others, but it doesn't mean I don't have the ability to get rid of you. You'd better know that."
When Ye Lan heard Wu Cheng's conditions, she was even more confused and even dared not believe it for a moment. She didn't expect Wu Cheng's so-called requirements to be so low.
But this is much easier to deal with. After all, such conditions are within her ability. She can also unilaterally agree to Wu Cheng's request without embarrassing herself and being unable to explain...
Winter Kingdom Fools Northland Bank Headquarters
Pantarone sat in his office room, which was dedicated to the president of the Northland Bank. It was luxurious and even had green plants that Zhidong rarely saw. The temperature inside was very warm. The room of a rich person could be as warm as spring but not hot.
The rich man was sitting at his desk, looking at the documents he had collected with great interest. The rich man's collection was not like a servant who deployed many spies to investigate for him. The rich man solved the problem of intelligence with a very simple method, which was to spend money.
At first, those who sold the information were reluctant, but the rich paid more. Compared with others who bought information in tens of millions, the rich paid in hundreds of millions.
If the information you provide is worth the money, then Pantalone will definitely not refuse to cooperate with you next time, but if the information you provide is not worth the money, then Pantalone will send a debt handler to have a good chat with you.
So to some extent, although the rich may not have the most intelligence, their accuracy is so high that even Arlecchino, who specializes in intelligence work, would be discouraged.
When he saw a document about Wucheng, he couldn't help but take a look at it and then asked the people around him: "This information bought with 1 billion Mora is really worth it."
"So this is the truth hidden by the Mondstadt Knights of Favonius. The actions of the Knights of Favonius are truly pathetic and ridiculous."
Pantalone learned from the last meeting that the Fatui's plan to kill Cripps had completely failed, and that the doctor's slice seemed to have been killed by someone in Mond.
In fact, Pantalone doesn’t care about the success or failure of this plan. Well, whether this plan succeeds or fails, it has nothing to do with his personal interests.
But compared to this failure which had nothing to do with his interests, he cared more about the young man mentioned by the doctor who had fought with him and escaped from the Demon God's Residue Laboratory.
Although the slices made by the doctor are not stronger than the original body, they are still not something that ordinary people can defeat. And this boy seems to have a lot of secrets. After all, the one who can drive the doctor's slices into a desperate situation and kill them is definitely not an ordinary person.
The Doctor merely shared with them that the young man had indeed hindered their plans for Winter Solstice. As for the other secrets, even if the Doctor knew them, why would he tell them?
They are just colleagues, each with their own goals and ideals. Now they are just taking shelter under the same roof, but it does not mean that they will always be in the same boat.
Therefore, Pantalone always had doubts about the information provided by the doctor, so he sent his own people to use Mora to investigate the matter.
Things turned out just as Pantalone expected. The doctor did hide some key information from him, such as the fact that the young man named Wu Cheng was injected with a large amount of Blood Demon residue before escaping from the laboratory, and now possessed the power of Blood Demon in his body.
This power can control blood, use strange formations to counterattack, and seems to have an immortal state.
Of course, this information was not obtained from Mond, but from the information obtained from individual researchers under the doctor. The information was obtained after piecing together the scattered information.
After all, the doctoral research depends on him. Pantalone Bank of the North provides funding as a support. Not to mention his subordinates, all he needs to do is offer them a price they can't refuse. Is he afraid that he won't be able to buy any intelligence?
After all, although his cooperation with Dotole is very close, in his eyes, Dotole is just an investment of his. As long as what he invested in is worth it, no matter how much he invested, it would not be too much.
The doctor was one of his investment targets, because the experiment the doctor was doing was to give people power comparable to that of gods. He thought the project was worth investing in, so he used part of the funds from Northland Bank to fund the doctor to complete this task in his personal name.
And now, Pantalone seems to have found a new target for aid, the young man who killed Dotore. Although Pantalone's camp belongs to the Fatui of the Kingdom of Winter.
But for him, as long as the investment is valuable, meaningful, and profitable, it doesn't matter who it is. Even those who are against him can invest. Businessmen never give up the opportunity to make money, right?
Pantalone put aside the intelligence about Wucheng that he had collected in the past ten days, picked up the warm coffee on his desk and took a sip.
Then he said to the debt collector next to him: "Continue to inquire about the news about this person. Mora can withdraw money at will, as long as it can buy satisfactory information for me. Of course, if the information does not satisfy me, you know what to do."
The debt collector standing nearby said, "As you wish, Mr. Rich. Your will will be carried out."
