Original God, life in red Teyvat from scratch

Chapter 261 Pretending to be confused while pretending to understand

[It seems that the situation is more serious than I thought. ]

Walking on the way to the House of Religion, thinking back to the residents who had used various abstract aliases and spoke confusing words, Elhaisen recalled the previous large-scale purge campaign.

A group of people were arrested in the name of arresting the defected disciplinary officer Seino and his accomplices.

No wonder, the thirty-man team that went to capture people suffered heavy casualties, but when asked about the specific circumstances, they found that some of them were missing.

In the entire operation, there were only three casualties among the thirty-man group, and two people sprained their ankles during the operation, but the number of missing persons and defectors reached over a hundred.

Such figures almost made Asfad, the consultant of the 30-member group, lose confidence.

Is my team of thirty people so unreliable?

Now it seems that the most likely thing is that he just heard something he shouldn't have heard and found a way to deal with it.

The same is probably true for those who were arrested.

It's just a false accusation.

Soon after arriving at the House of the Decree, Elhaisen happened to meet the great sage Azar.

"Hey, isn't this El Haisen? I didn't see you this morning. How come the always diligent secretary also slept in?"

Azar came up to greet him with a smile, but his eyes were always drifting towards the void terminal worn on Elhaisen's left ear.

It doesn't look like it's fake, so why does it show as offline?

What's wrong with the void?

Or has Elhaisen discovered something?

Azar narrowed his eyes slightly.

Maybe he discovered something? Otherwise, why did he suddenly take off the Void Terminal? Elhaisen had never done this before.

And today, El Haisen is obviously back in spirit.

only……

I just dealt with a major disciplinary officer, and now another clerk comes.

He is a recognized and prestigious secretary, and even a strong contender for the next great sage. This matter is very difficult to handle.

At this time, Azar was testing Elhaisen's strength.

"Something happened temporarily and delayed me for a while. There's no need to worry about it. Oh, by the way, Great Sage, I need to go out for a while. I need to take a few days off and leave Xumi City."

Azar stared at Elhaisen's void terminal, and Elhaisen also stared at Azar's void terminal.

It doesn't look fake, so would the great sage himself dare to use it?

Or are you also kept in the dark?

"This is not good. The Magistrates' Court is in a turbulent time right now and urgently needs manpower."

"This is a very important matter for me, and I need to handle it personally. I will assign the work to my reliable subordinates."

Elhaisen deliberately emphasized the word "reliable" slightly, and then observed Hazard's reaction.

"..."

Azar did not reply immediately, but looked very conflicted. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Okay, since you are so anxious and the matter is so important, then you can just make some arrangements in the void and deal with it as soon as possible."

"That's not necessary. I have something in the office that I need to go get. It just so happens that I can't explain it clearly in a few words in the void, so I'll go and explain it all at once to avoid any mistakes."

"That's fine. I trust you to do the job. Just make the arrangements."

After listening to Elhaisen's reply, Azar just nodded and agreed, then walked away.

Elhaisen continued to move forward and passed by Hazard.

After the two walked a few steps, they turned back to look at each other's backs at the same time, and their faces became heavy.

【There is something wrong with this person! 】*2.

For Elhaisen, the problem is that there is no reason to emphasize making arrangements in the void.

Azar wanted to know whether he was still wearing the Void terminal and continuing to use the Void.

It seems that the Void Terminal does have certain surveillance functions, which should be confirmed by now.

And the person who controls this function is indeed Azar. If there is any conspiracy, Azar should play an important role in it.

But he gave a negative answer, which means he has been exposed now.

As for Hazard, he made it clear that Elhaisen might have known things that he shouldn't know.

However, the two of them tacitly agreed not to expose the secret.

After all, the other party is a great sage/clerk, and he cannot be defeated even if we fight against each other.

Now both of them are pretending to be ignorant while knowing the truth and preparing to take action secretly.

[It’s all that Khawaja’s fault! Idiot!]

Compared to Elhaisen's joy after discovering the conspiracy and his solemnity after discovering that the boss was stronger than expected, Azar was full of complaints.

In Hazard's opinion, if Khawaja had not leaked the information, there would not be so many things happening now, and he would not be as passive as he is now.

Elhaisen's move was nothing more than verifying his conjecture and establishing his authority.

Hazard's eyes were fierce at this time.

In that case, don't blame me for being rude!

Then, Azar took out the real void terminal in his hand and sent a communication to the doctor.

We have to let the Fatui deal with Elhaisen urgently.

On the other hand, the doctor who was in charge of the construction of the God of Righteousness received a request for help from Azar.

Compared with before, the doctor seemed a little hesitant and restrained.

The main reason was that some time ago, when Inazuma countered Xumi's move to close the embassy, ​​he was prepared for the other party to make things difficult for the Imperial College.

As a result, the Inazuma people did nothing but retaliated in kind, closing the embassy in Xumi and expelling diplomats, that was all.

Other than that, it was just a statement that embarrassed the Doctor.

Inazuma formally signed a "Mutual Defense Treaty" with the Desert, and repeatedly emphasized that if the Desert mainland was attacked, they would immediately provide support, and if the Desert forces were attacked by a demon-level enemy, Inazuma would also intervene.

The doctor felt something was wrong at the time. These statements had nothing to do with the diplomatic events at the time, but seemed to be directed against him.

The doctor's first reaction was that the Inazuma people seemed to be going to make some big move next, and this statement and the so-called "Mutual Defense Treaty" were completely intended to guard against him.

Now, facing Azar's request for support, ordinary Fatui soldiers might not be able to stop him, so should he take action directly?

After much hesitation, the doctor finally chose the safer way: send some elite soldiers to intercept and kill, while he himself kept his troops in place and continued to observe.

Under such circumstances, Elhaisen quickly returned to his office, called a few people to make some arrangements, and then stood up alone, ready to go to Huachenggu.

Along the way, in addition to Elhaisen's own extraordinary martial arts, Inazuma and the Desert's men also secretly contributed a lot and eliminated some of the Fatui soldiers, which was enough for Elhaisen to escape easily.

All the way to the vicinity of Huachengguo.

Tinari and Seno, who had already received the news, stood on the roadside waiting for Elhaisen's arrival.

Chapter 262 Everyone is here

Sino still feels that his luck is pretty good.

Realizing that something was wrong, he picked up an unconscious person at the scene and escaped, and ended up catching the "culprit" Hain.

After Hain woke up, he immediately told Seno about his experience and the conclusions he had drawn. Seno immediately destroyed the void terminal and successfully avoided the pursuit of the Thirty-Man Group and the Fatui soldiers with his rich experience over the years and escaped from Xumi City.

After escaping, Seno immediately came to Huachenggu to seek refuge with his good brother Tinari.

Tinari also didn't believe that Seno would defect directly, but the news that the Void Terminal was being used for conspiracy was equally shocking.

Tinari holds a conservative attitude towards this. He prefers to focus more on rainforest ecological management and eliminating dead zones.

To be honest, he didn't want to get involved in the mess in the Ministry of Education, so he chose to come to Huachengguo...

After going around in circles, I had to get involved from the moment I met Seno.

And now, thanks to the efforts of both Desert and Inazuma, El Haisen has also arrived.

As soon as Elhaisen arrived, he shared his own experiences and the scenes he observed in Xumi City and the Church Order Institute during the conversation among several people.

After the three of them exchanged their intelligence, it was almost clear that there was a problem at the highest level of the House of Lords, headed by the Great Sage Azar.

Of course, the Fatui are also involved. But Fatui, wherever there is bad stuff, there will definitely be them. We are used to it.

At this point, the lives and safety of all the people in Xumi City were endangered, and even Tinari, who wanted to "live in seclusion", could not sit still.

We must never sit idly by.

But right now... they are at a complete disadvantage.

Seno has been declared a defector, and the Order is still looking for him. Tinari's influence in Xumi City is not that great, and there is a possibility that he will be "silenced". The only one who can mobilize some power is Elhaisen.

However, when fighting against the current great sage, Elhaisen's strength is not enough, and it is even a question whether he can protect himself.

In particular, the great sage also has control over the void, which is enough to calculate a person's possible future actions based on his past behavior, thereby seizing the initiative every time.

In terms of direct confrontation, there is also the huge and powerful organization of the Fatui standing in the way.

After taking stock of everything, everyone had a headache.

The enemy is strong and we are weak; the enemy is numerous and we are few.

"Maybe, but not necessarily."

Elhaisen recalled the scene in Xumi City.

Obviously, there are other people driving this forward.

A few days ago, Xumi City arrested a large number of people in the city. Not long after, the great sage ordered the cessation of performances in the Grand Bazaar and banned such activities where people gathered and information spread quickly.

Because of this, the group of thirty people even had some conflicts with the people in the Grand Bazaar, and the final result was nothing.

Before he left Xumi City, some people had taken off their real void terminals and put on fake ones, using words like "green teeth" that only humans can understand based on some micro-movements and associations to replace descriptions, in order to avoid being accurately located by the void.

It is obvious that someone is secretly pushing for the truth of all this to be revealed.

Combined with the fact that the Ministry of Education inexplicably violated the previous statements of the Ministry of Education and the Pure Palace some time ago, and the rapid fallout between Desert and Inazuma, they severed their ties...

"It's those Inazuma people."

The three of them looked at each other, and the answer was obvious.

Although no one knows how they know the truth that even the secretary Elhaisen doesn't know, and no one knows why they would help Xumi to solve this problem, it is indeed them.

"Speaking of which, a while ago, a group of Daoqi people did come to live temporarily in Huacheng. After the Ministry of Education issued an order to expel the Daoqi people, they took the initiative to retreat to the border between Liyue Layered Abyss and Xumi before we took any action. It's not far from here, and they have also communicated with us."

Tinari recalled the changes that had taken place in the city some time ago.

"Yes, did you see the letter I wrote to you?"

"I see. Your handwriting is as ugly as ever."

"That's why I asked them to help deliver it. They agreed very happily, and even... a little happy?"

Seno ignored Elhaisen's taunting and spoke in an uncertain tone, recalling their demeanor at the time.

"It seems that we need to go and pay them a visit. At least, we need to find out what happened and who are our friends and who are our enemies."

Elhaisen's proposal was recognized by Tinari and Senor, and then the three of them set off for the border of Liyue, the base of the Inazuma people.

"Huh? You guys are finally here!"

Inside Inazuma's temporary residence, the person in charge had a look of surprise on his face.

After waiting for so long, I finally got these three people.

The three of them were not too surprised.

After all, even the three of them might just be part of Inazuma's plan, so it was normal for him to anticipate their visit in advance.

"Speaking of which, were you the one who secretly helped to deal with those Fatui I met on the road?"

El Haisen asked in a firm tone.

After all, that kind of long-range weapon that makes a loud noise has performance far superior to the elemental musket and Fontaine's gun in all aspects. It is almost one of the symbols of the Inazuma people.
