Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2476 echoes the beginning and end.
When crafting a story, it's essential to ensure coherence and consistency between the beginning and end.

Since we've chosen Laurie as our pseudonym, we should naturally make the most of the value behind that name.

For example, someone ranked first in the entire chain might not have too many consequences after death, and their privacy would also be the best.

Not only did it finally answer Lady Serana's questions, but it also greatly increased the credibility of the entire story.

The most obvious result was a long period of silence.

The long-awaited fatal blow actually made the other person's story seem more authentic, and the interrogator was clearly already seriously reflecting on the confession obtained today.

"Tell me your original plan."

In the end, no further questions were raised, and "Serana" even became interested in the details.

"It's a pity there was no plan, we were basically just taking it one step at a time... It was because we weren't sure if Gene was on the ship that we had to take that risky action."

Fu Qian's answer remained honest.

"Then how did you know he might be on the ship?"

Serana still didn't let him go.

"I only know that he is trying to get involved in the struggle between the two groups. I'm not even sure which side he's on, nor am I sure if Yasui has made any moves in this area."

"But the Sirens' actions are quite conspicuous, so we can only try our luck... although I don't know what Sorendir is doing."

Unfortunately, sincere people are invincible; they answered fluently before payment.

"Furthermore, I will not ask how you know these things, or what your purpose is in searching for the Lord of Death. I only hope that if we have some common interests, then we can cooperate to overcome the current crisis."

Serana remained silent, but her output continued, and she seemed quite self-aware.

"If you feel it's meaningless, then I can only regret it."

……

At one point, a pain came from behind, accompanied by warmth.

The effort seemed to finally have an effect; the spine, which was almost completely exposed, was clearly being re-buried.

"I hope you cherish this comfort... If I discover any of your little actions, you will go and hug your servant."

Even after the minor stitches were done, Serana's words still carried a strong sense of threat.

"clear."

Fu Qian nodded, making no attempt to hide his satisfaction.

Although the reason for my relief may not be what it seems.

On the surface, it's a narrow escape from death, but in reality, it's the joy of becoming a tool.

He didn't ask about those things just now, nor did he need to.

Despite the various changes, the underlying principle remains the same. Regardless of how they tracked her here, for Lady Serana, the situation is still somewhat far-fetched.

She ran onto the boat to arrest people, but ended up arresting someone else who was also there to arrest people.

Fortunately, who knows what might happen, this person knows more.

The interrogation revealed that the incident in Beijing was far more complicated than it appeared, involving considerable hidden details.

Moore may be in danger at this moment, but it has also become a place of opportunity, a chance to unravel many mysteries.

Moreover, excellent "tools" are right in front of us. As long as we go with the flow, we can take advantage of the insects' survival instincts to maximize the information we can gather.

Even during this process, her identity was not exposed.

All these calculations are ultimately just a contest of gains and losses, and it's not hard to predict what choice they will make.

"Sorrendir is looking for something."

As it turned out, when she spoke again, "Serana" proactively answered some of Fu Qian's earlier questions. ...

Looking for something?
Compared to surfing, this explanation makes the scene from earlier seem more plausible.

"That thing was around Moore? That's why it drove off for a bit and then came right back?"

The other party was surprisingly generous enough to initiate an information-sharing phase, and naturally, they were very frugal in making payments.

"To be precise, that ship has been going around in circles for a long time, and almost only in this kind of weather."

"Serana" corrected coldly, sounding as if she had been observing for some time.

Only going out to sea in bad weather? That's a bit rebellious.

"No wonder everything seemed so strange on the ship; that's why they haven't found what they're looking for yet?"

It sounded even more interesting, and Fu Qian indicated that he had gained a better understanding of the situation.

"It seems so, but unfortunately no one knows what he's looking for."

I agree with Fu Qian's opinion, although it seems that Lady Serana has no intention of sharing any more.

At the same time, Fu Qian realized that the restraints on his body had been completely removed.

"Perhaps Yasui knows?"

Reaching down to touch his back, making sure there were no more exposed wounds, Fu Qian then offered an idea.

"Perhaps... but their people were clearly well hidden, which is why I went to the ship to look for them, although it turns out that Gene doesn't seem to have as much courage as you."

Not only did they genuinely discuss the current situation, but Serana even gave a positive review to the previous one.

……

So, according to this intelligence report, Gene might not necessarily be acting as a minion of the Sirens?

The meaning is quite clear: Serana first tried to find Yasui's related forces but failed, and the Sirens' ship was too conspicuous over there, so she boarded the ship rather recklessly to give it a try.

The reasons why Gene might be on the ship are all assumed to have different purposes, such as working for the Sirens or infiltrating and causing sabotage.

Of course, the latter scenario is indeed less likely, and to act recklessly under the nose of a demigod would be excessive.

"You flatter me—I'll go back to the ship to confirm Sorendir's purpose?"

Using the perspective of a demigod, he roughly outlined the overall situation in Moore, and after a humble remark, casually offered a suggestion.

……

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

As it turns out, even a demigod's mental resistance is not indestructible.

In the few seconds of silence, Serana seemed to be confirming what she had heard.

"After thinking about it, it seems like I don't have anything else to do."

However, it seems that as the leader of the Greedy Bugs, "Laurie" has a far greater understanding of life than Gene. With a deep laugh, he exudes a magnanimous wisdom that comes from seeing through the ways of the world.

"Since I proposed this collaboration, it should demonstrate its own value. I think you might not think I can be of much help to Moore."

How could this be nonsense or a joke? We've been assessing the necessity of staying in Mole's Operations compared to heading straight to the Ash Sea.

Now that we have a demigod-level tool, what should we do next?

It's definitely going to be a win-win situation for both Mole and Ash Sea. They'll leave this place to Siren Anjing and Serana to raise their monsters, and then come back to reap the rewards.

Of course, we can't say that directly; we're still theoretical partners.

Fortunately, Lady Serana just praised our courage, so we can echo that sentiment once again.
