They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 97 Fishing? No, I prefer "frying" fish (5000)

The autopsy report for the strange fish came out faster than Dan Lei had imagined.

The failure of the snow-clad attack made Shiō Tsukasa feel that he had been tricked, so the efficiency of the related efforts was unbelievably high.

Most importantly, the current "Secret Transmission of Medicine King" in Luofu is merely using the name "Secret Transmission of Medicine King"; their actual level is far inferior to that of the original "Secret Transmission of Medicine King".

Therefore, the Ten Kings immediately found genetic characteristics related to the Vidyadhara in the strange fish. Combined with the chemical residue in the pool water, they were certain that someone had obtained some of the secret materials of the Medicine King from back then and was reproducing them, and was even using the Vidyadhara clan to conduct related experiments.

Therefore, the Ten Kings immediately notified the Dragon Master Council to inquire whether any Vidyadharas or Vidyadhara eggs had recently gone missing or been stolen.

Treating a thief as the victim and asking if anyone stole his things will naturally yield only one result: the Dragon Master Council will respond quickly.
"No members of the Luofu Chiming clan have recently gone missing, and no Chiming eggs have been found missing. Also, release Danlei immediately. The Chiming Dragon Master Council strongly protests against the Ten Kings Division's unwarranted detention of the Chiming hero."

Upon hearing this reply, Han Ya frowned, because it meant that the Ming Clan had no leads to provide, and the Ten Kings Bureau could only investigate the staff of the Earth Balance Bureau first.

As for Dan Lei, seeing that the Dragon Master Council was eager for him to go out, he knew that they probably felt it would be better to observe his actions from outside, while also ensuring that the precious users of the Breeding Destiny would not be lost.

Therefore, Danlei was even less willing to go out.

To be precise, Dan Lei wasn't planning to leave until all the clues converged at Dan Ding Si and a strong person was needed to oversee things.

Even if the crow really locked itself in a cell, it would be the same.

During the Battle of Egihazo, when Danlei opened the temple gates, Fu Xuan improved the rune array by converting imaginary energy into ley line energy, thus enabling the ley line array he recorded to open the gates of the Sea of ​​Quanta.

Dan Lei was watching as these runes were set up, so he memorized them all.

This set of runes solved the problem of Danlei's low efficiency in charging the Holy Grail in Luofu.

Therefore, even while imprisoned in the Dark Prison, he could draw an array to directly enter cultivation mode and use the energy in the Dark Prison to recharge the Holy Grail.

In any case, since [Lan] infinitely grants the Immortal Ship the power of destiny, and the Nether Prison is the primary guarantee besides the power source of the Luofu Immortal Ship, it is impossible for it to be completely drained, and there is no possibility of even energy depletion.

Of course, he won't go to jail, since Danlei really didn't break any laws.

However, Han Ya made a final attempt, summoning Jing Yuan by mentioning the discovery of the Medicine King's secret activities, hoping that Jing Yuan would take Dan Lei away.

As a result, after Jing Yuan learned the whole story, he and Dan Lei stared at each other in the interrogation room.

Well, Jing Yuan didn't even open his eyes. Seeing that Dan Lei didn't speak, he simply closed his eyes to rest, and eventually even dozed off.

Dan Lei didn't indulge him and immediately sat down to enter cultivation mode, letting Jing Yuan sleep.

The two remained locked in this stalemate for two hours until Jing Yuan staggered, finally waking up.

After Jing Yuan woke up, he looked at Dan Lei, who was still in meditation opposite him, and could only speak first.
"Dan Lei, I'm sorry, but Fu Taibu has been studying a secret manual recently and is not taking on any other work besides his regular duties."

"I'm busy with both Luofu affairs and following up on the cooperation with Interstellar Peace Company, which has left me quite exhausted."

Seeing that Jing Yuan had spoken up, Dan Lei naturally couldn't continue his meditation. Instead, he opened his eyes, sat up straight, and said...
"It's alright, General, you can sleep a little longer. This place is definitely quiet, no doubt about it."

Jingyuan definitely can't sleep anymore now, because he's really busy. If he keeps sleeping, he really won't be able to sleep at all tonight.

Therefore, he could only shake his head and say...
"The Medicine King's Secret Techniques have been activated again, and this is something that needs to be closely monitored. I can't even sleep if I want to."

"Dan Lei, did you already suspect something? I just analyzed it briefly in my sleep, and it seems you were deliberately guiding the Ten Kings' Division in their investigation."

Dan Lei looked at Jing Yuan and really wanted to complain about the phrase "I analyzed it in my dream." So that's how you got the nickname "General with Blind Eyes".

However, although Dan Lei didn't expect his little trick to fool Jing Yuan, there were some things he couldn't admit verbally, so he still spoke up.

“I told Han Ya that during the Dan Ding Si’s activities, I sensed that some people were in a state of sudden madness, with a frequency so high that it was unlike the madness of individual patients. Moreover, I was able to distinguish these mad people from different people through their mental waves.”

Seeing that Dan Lei still said the same thing, Jing Yuan simply stated it directly.
"So, you think there's something wrong with the Dan Ding Division, right?"

Dan Lei did not deny this, and answered seriously.
"Of course, the problem lies within the Dan Ding Division, and since the laboratory is also located within the Dan Ding Division's territory, it's clear that the Dan Ding Division is the one with the problem."

Especially now that it's been confirmed the culprit might be a member of the Medicine King's secret lineage, I've heard of this organization. It seems to have originated among alchemists, a retrogressive faith group founded by those who reminisce about the abundant miracles of the era of divine intervention.

Seeing that Dan Lei was very familiar with the history of the Medicine King's secret teachings, Jing Yuan nodded and then continued...

"Danlei, it seems you do know about this organization."

However, since the Three Tribulations, the Medicine King's secret teachings have been destroyed, but now they have suddenly resurfaced. Dan Lei, what do you think is the reason?

Danlei knew that the reason for this problem was that the arrow from [Lan] during the Third Bountiful People's War had killed a large number of friendly personnel, causing the relatives and friends of the deceased to waver in their faith in Lan.

In the end, because of her hatred for [Lan] who killed her friend Yufei, Dan Shu resolutely returned to the embrace of Feng Rao, simply because she wished for the alliance to last forever, but not in the way [Lan] expected.

However, the same problem remains: even if Danlei knows the reason, he cannot say it because he cannot explain the source.

Therefore, Danlei could only reply...

"Within the Immortal Ship, the seeds of the Abundant Faith have never truly been extinguished. After all, the existence of the Demonic Yin Body instills fear in all Immortal Ship inhabitants, much like the short-lived species' fear of death."

Therefore, in this respect, there is no difference between long-lived and short-lived people seeking longevity; there will always be someone who wants to solve the problem of the demonic body.

The one who tied the knot must untie it; it's not impossible that someone might want to return to abundance because of this.

Seeing that Dan Lei gave such an answer, Jing Yuan didn't comment much, but instead asked...
"Danlei, if you were handling this matter, what would you do?"

Dan Lei knew that Jing Yuan was testing him, so he directly denied it.
"There are no ifs. I have no law enforcement authority. As a civilian, I can only provide the information I know and then wait for the Ten Kings' Division to handle it."

Seeing that Dan Lei was pretending to be stupid, Jing Yuan continued to press for answers.

What if I grant you the relevant permissions?

However, Danlei remained unmoved and replied...
"There is no legal basis for this matter. Even if you are a general, Jingyuan, you cannot give me the authority to handle this matter."

Because I will not join the Ten Kings Division, nor will I join the Earth Balance Division.

To be precise, I don't want to join any of the Six Divisions of Luofu. Once the heat of the Egihazo war has died down, I'll go out and gain more experience.

Jingyuan was helpless when he saw that Danlei was unyielding and unwilling to share his burdens.

Then he thought to himself, Dan Lei is only interested in personal gain, so he had no choice but to throw out the bait he had prepared.

"Dan Lei, it's not like there's no law to follow. The Ten Kings Division can ask external people to assist them in handling cases. Your memory and destiny abilities fully meet the standards."

Moreover, you won't be left with nothing after the job is done. I've already secured the right to purchase military equipment from the Immortal Boat Alliance as a reward for the original Ejihazo War.

In the future, you can purchase all Luofu standard equipment from the Industrial Construction Department, and even remotely customize weapons from the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship.

"If you can resolve this matter, then I will make the decision to grant you access to the Cloud Cavalry's martial arts manuals. You can freely study Cloud Cavalry martial arts techniques in the Cloud Cavalry's library."

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei's eyes lit up, and he said that this reward was great.

It wasn't too surprising for Dan Lei that he obtained the right to purchase military equipment from the Immortal Boat Alliance.

Because he possessed the power of the fertility envoy, the equipment in Luofu was not as dangerous compared to this power, and therefore could be opened to him.

Then there are the Cloud Cavalry martial arts, which are great things. Although they are something that everyone in the Cloud Cavalry can learn, they are martial arts with a very high minimum skill level, even though their upper limit is not top-tier.

With her family's martial arts skills at her disposal, Su Chang usually uses the Cloud Cavalry Sword Manual for attack and combat, which shows how practical this series of martial arts techniques is.

Seeing that there was profit to be made, Dan Lei instantly changed his expression and laughed.

"If that's how it works, then I could indeed join."

However, a slow, deliberate search isn't in my nature; I prefer to take the initiative.

Seeing that Dan Lei had agreed, Jing Yuan thought to himself that he now knew how to get Dan Lei to do chores, and then asked...

"Taking the initiative? Danlei, are you planning to fish for us?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei decisively shook his head and said...

"Fishing is too troublesome, and you might even lose the bait, so I prefer frying fish."

Since the problem lies with the Pill Refining Division, we can simply gather everyone there and investigate them one by one. I told you, I can identify people through mental waves. As long as those whose berserk consciousness I sensed are still in the Pill Refining Division, regardless of whether they're currently berserk or not, I can tell just by touching their heads.”

Jing Yuan frowned after hearing the plan and immediately reminded him...
"Dan Lei, directly using the power of memory destiny to read other people's memories is a violation of the rules."

Dan Lei smiled and said...

"Therefore, I need Crow and Snow Robe to stay by my side and supervise me. I promise not to read other people's memories. Crow will be responsible for supervision, but those being checked must not know."

Jing Yuan now understood Dan Lei's meaning. His so-called fried fish was actually a trick; he wanted to trick Dan Lei into revealing the secrets of the Medicine King.

If that's the case, then this is actually feasible. After all, it doesn't matter if the method is old or not, as long as it works.

Dan Lei's ability to read memories is now common knowledge in Luofu. He is accompanied by two judges from the Ten Kings Division, which easily leads people to misunderstand that Dan Lei is authorized by the Ten Kings Division.

Even if I explained beforehand that I wouldn't read their memories, these guys probably still wouldn't believe me.

In this way, those who have something to hide will deliberately reveal their true colors.

Therefore, Jingyuan agreed to the plan and immediately put it into action.

Dan Lei secretly smiled to himself when he saw that Jing Yuan had agreed.

Actually, it doesn't matter whether this little scheme succeeds or not. Even if it fails to extract any information, Dan Lei will just say that Dan Shu and Ban Xia are the ones with problems.

At that time, with the arrow already on the bowstring, even if Han Ya and Xue Yi wanted to settle scores with Dan Lei, they would have to do it later, as the two of them would inevitably be temporarily detained.

Given Banxia's temperament, she will inevitably reveal her weakness at that time.

Moreover, Dan Lei promised not to read memories, but he didn't say he wouldn't use the Twelve Labors Formation.

This thing activates silently, and the Pill Cauldron Division doesn't have any particularly strong Fate Walkers. So, during each inspection, just provoke the person in front of you. If there's really a problem, they'll probably just show up on their own.

If all else fails, it can be used on Dan Shu and Ban Xia to make them lose their minds in anger and thus expose themselves.

Now that the operation was confirmed and Jing Yuan vouched for it, the Ten Kings quickly agreed to the plan, and Han Ya and Xue Yi immediately began their operation.

Fearing that the operation would be tipped off again, Jing Yuan directly mobilized trusted Cloud Riders to complete the personnel gathering for the Dan Ding Division.

Even if the Medicine King's Secret Teachings had spies within the Cloud Cavalry for such temporary missions, there was no way to immediately notify the Pill Cauldron Division.

After all, these Cloud Riders didn't know where they were going when they set off on their mission. They were only officially notified of their mission after being transported to the Pill Cauldron Division by the Star Chariot.

So, for the next ten minutes or so, Dan Ding Si was in complete chaos.

All the healers and alchemists, except for Bai Lu and her attendant who had special status, were gathered in the central square of the Dan Ding Si.

Subsequently, Han Ya and Xue Yi brought Dan Lei to the scene.

At this moment, the crow stood directly on the high platform and coldly announced to the people below.
"Today, the Ten Kings Bureau has discovered that the ancient heretical cult of Medicine King Secret Transmission, which worships the ancestor of plague and longevity, has been revived."

Moreover, since it is located within the Dan Ding Division, the Ten Kings Division, entrusted by the Shence Prefecture, will conduct an inspection of all staff members of the Dan Ding Division.

Members of the Medicine King's Secret Sect all take banned drugs, resulting in a difference in their mental activity level compared to normal Immortal Ship members.

Therefore, the Ten Kings Division specially invited Dan Lei, the Memory Path Walker, to conduct an examination for everyone.

As long as there are no issues with their mental state, they can be temporarily cleared of suspicion.

If there are any problems, please proceed to the Prison for a thorough examination.

Just as Han Ya was speaking, Dan Lei had already cast the Twelve Labor Emotions Formation on everyone present. However, there were too many people, and Dan Lei was not using his memory destiny to enhance his abilities, so the power to mobilize emotions was greatly reduced.

However, for those with something to hide, this level of urgency is enough to expose them.

So, as soon as the crow finished speaking, someone shouted from below.

"This is against the rules. As a traveler on the path of memories, everyone knows that Dan Lei can read memories. How can you guarantee that he won't take the opportunity to read our memories?"

After the man finished speaking, more than a dozen people around him immediately began to echo his words, and eventually, most people began to protest.

However, Dan Lei stepped forward at this moment. With the blessing of his memory destiny, the Twelve Labors Formation instantly suppressed everyone's impulses and amplified their fears.

It should be noted that ever since Dan Lei seized Skarakabaz's memories and embarked on the path of memories, the power of his own path of memories has been steadily increasing on his way back to Luofu.

Now, Danlei's depth of memory is no less than that of those who remember the fleeting moments of memory.

So when Dan Lei stepped forward, everyone felt an invisible pressure emanating from him. Especially considering that he also possessed the power of an envoy, they all began to feel lingering fear for their earlier outbursts.

After all, in the Star Iron Universe, anyone who knows the concept of a Commander-level being will have some fear of a Commander, even though Dan Lei can only use about one-tenth of the power of the Path of Reproduction.

Seeing that the room had quieted down, Dan Lei spoke directly.

"I understand everyone's concerns. But please rest assured, the two judges from the Ten Kings Division are here to supervise me."

I promise that I will only perceive emotions and will not pry into everyone's memories.

After all, if you happen to have some secrets of Luofu in your memories, I could directly commit the crime of "stealing confidential information" from the Ten Heinous Crimes.

You see, it's impossible for me to know what memories everyone has before I read them.

Dan Lei's words reassured most of the people below, as many of them did indeed have memories of secret elixirs.

Dan Lei is not a member of the Dan Ding Si (丹鼎司), and according to regulations, he is not allowed to know these pill formulas.

However, those who had been shouting the loudest before are now even more nervous.

Because Dan Lei had already consciously focused the Twelve Labors Formation on these people.

Most of these people have something to hide; they are genuinely afraid that Danlei will discover that they have mental health issues.

After all, the physical changes in those who took the Medicine King's secret medicine were quite obvious, but they didn't know if their spirits had really changed.

It should be noted that even Dan Shu was unsure about this issue, since she had no spiritual talent and did not understand the ability to remember one's destiny.

Therefore, as most of the Dan Ding Si began to examine Dan Lei in turn, those people only felt themselves becoming more and more nervous.

By the time the first person approached Danlei, he had already silently amplified his impulses and fears to the maximum.

Looking at Dan Lei's smile, the man felt as if he had been exposed, and his heart was pounding in his throat.

Therefore, he broke down and activated the Demonic Yin Transformation the instant Dan Lei reached out.

What was once a normal man from the immortal ship suddenly sprouted yellow armor, a mask, tree branches, and ginkgo-like leaves. A demonic monster appeared magnificently before Dan Lei.

Upon seeing the monster, Dan Lei immediately recognized it as an Inner Alchemist from the game known as the "Secret Transmission of the Medicine King." Its skill seemed to be to place a mark on a person, which would detonate upon death, causing damage.

So Danlei threw a punch without hesitation to prevent the guy who had been provoked into transforming from randomly marking innocent people around him as hostages.

Dan Lei's fists are no match for Fei Xiao, but they're enough to beat a regular demonic monster. This guy had just transformed and hadn't even uttered a harsh word before Dan Lei punched him away, tearing his mask in the process.

Then, Dan Lei unleashed a powerful ice magic spell, freezing it into a block of ice. He then signaled to the Ten Kings Division who had followed him to arrest the person.

The immortals of the Immortal Boat have strong vitality. Those two blows would have been enough to kill an ordinary immortal boatman in a short time, let alone this one who has already transformed into the Demon Yin Body, so he should be even more resistant to beatings.

Of course, it doesn't matter if he dies, Danlei can still read memories from the corpse.

　The Fate/Grand Order collaboration event is on July 11th!!

　　That's great! Once the collaboration starts, we'll know the official positioning and strength of the Servants.

　　Then we can prepare to go to the FGO world.

　　The follow-up information on Pinocone will not be available until version 3.7. Before that, I am not very willing to write about Pinocone, otherwise it would be embarrassing to write something and then be proven wrong.
