Chapter 990: The Doctor's Brain Conference
"Humans are strange creatures."
"If you give them some benefits occasionally and don't push them to the limit, they will be very obedient and obey all your orders," said Dotore.
"Once you cross that red line, even an ordinary person can have the potential to overturn everything."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "I don't want to discuss with you the management plan of the evil upper class. I just want to know what else you have seen."
"No, after the wear and tear of time, even the image of Gu Shen will soon disappear, like a mirage without the conditions of light, shadow and climate."
Dotole said calmly, "The 'condition' I mentioned to you, sir, is actually related to this. He has not yet met a certain standard within the Executive Officers."
"So he is just a dispensable chess piece?"
Dotore was helpless: "Even if we have many high-level fighters, we can't just ignore such a talented young man."
"As for the idea of kidnapping him to your Liyue, that is even more impossible. He swore allegiance to the Queen."
Gu Sanqiu nodded calmly: "It's okay. If we really kidnap him, who will pay for my father's expenses when he goes out? I won't compete with you for talent."
" That sir is truly... unique."
The doctor hesitated to speak, mainly because he didn't quite understand the hidden meaning of Morax's behavior.
When Morax was in power, he was able to comment on his various policies in Liyue and offer some different opinions from his own perspective.
But after the other party retired gloriously, the doctor always felt that this ordinary person named Zhongli became more and more abstract.
Well, but it doesn’t matter. This world is the most abstract.
It's good to leave some small things to close friends.
Pantalone had submitted a proposal some time ago, stating that the reimbursement of funds for executive officers must be subject to a clear upper limit.
However, since executives often encounter unexpected situations when performing their tasks, this proposal was shelved.
If the Fatui were a slightly normal and formal place, Pantalone's proposal would definitely be approved by their superiors.
Unfortunately, my teammates are a bunch of reckless lunatics, and if the funding is capped, it would be inconvenient to do anything.
The current situation is that Childe uses the funds earned by Pantalone to pay for Zhongli's expenses, and Childe and Pantalone are also colleagues.
Considering the relationship between Pantalone and Zhongli, if Gu Sanqiu knew about this, he would definitely give the "rich man" the Best Victim Award.
"Let's go, we'll meet again sometime."
Dotore said, “Next time, if the timing is right, I might be the one to lead the team to the Stratum Abyss to relieve the guard. You must prepare good wine and food from Liyue for me.”
"Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten that there are Fatui in Stratum."
Gu Sanqiu remembered the Leiying sorcerer who handed him water.
"What on earth is down there that fascinates you so much?"
"The study of ancient ruins and the power of the abyss is nothing more than these two points. After all, Layer Rock is already a very safe research site."
Dotore walked away: "Morax's eyes are always fixed on this place. If you accidentally trigger resonance, your life will be in danger. There are not many such safe places."
The corner of Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched, and he thought of those ignorant bandits.
The cause of death was that he had not read many books.
People often secretly mine, and if they accidentally cause a stir, they may end up killing or maiming themselves.
Layer Rock is an important place in Liyue, but it can also be said to be a dangerous place. If you don’t have the skills, it’s better not to go there.
If the formation had not been set up to seal off most of the power, the consequences of acting recklessly would have been even more terrifying.
For safety reasons, the Thousand Rocks Army is stationed at the largest rock crystal, which can also be regarded as the main flag of the seal, in order to maintain the seal.
After Dotore walked away, he stopped at the next corner , then let out a breath, as if he had relaxed his vigilance.
His mind was distracted, and his right arm began to twitch. Then Dotore held it down hard, and it took a long time for the twitching to stop.
"Almost, just a little bit more."
"What's the point, you idiot? Just tell your best friend that you need his help. Wouldn't it be faster that way, you idiot?"
"If you ask me, Sanqiu is a soft-hearted person. Just spend a lot of money and say a few nice words. Anyway, Pantalone can make back the money he spent!"
"It's not easy to have a close friend these days. Brother Sanqiu is a rare confidant of an old man like me. Don't mess this up!"
…
"Shut up!"
Dotore snorted coldly, suppressing all the voices in his mind.
"Since the beginning, I have never asked others for help. No matter how terrible the danger or how obscure the knowledge, I have always made it through by myself!"
"No matter what it is, now is not the time to confront him. If we really let out the news the old man got, it will kill us all."
Dotore coughed a few times, his voice sounding a little weak.
"Less talking and more doing. Old man, continue to follow up on your news. Ask others to help when necessary. Xumi, keep an eye on Scaramucci, and the rest will proceed according to the predetermined plan."
"We made some progress not long ago. Scaramuzi actually tried to intercept information from the World Tree, and it almost caused a disaster!"
Speaking of this, even with the Doctor's cultivated character, he couldn't help but get angry and wanted to hang Scaramucci up and beat him.
The plan had just shown some signs of success, but Guo Beng, who had seized a glimpse of power, actually had the guts to reach into the World Tree!
It would be fine if you did nothing but stand at a higher level and appreciate the beauty of the mountain, but that bastard actually went to retrieve information from this world!
Then, a guy with almost no normal social interaction subconsciously set his search target on Gu Sanqiu.
To be honest, for Guo Beng in this era, Gu Sanqiu is really a rare person with whom he can sit and eat and chat, so it is normal to want to search for his information.
Then something went wrong.
A huge, completely black root stretched out from the illusory world, and then swung it at everyone present with righteous violence.
Just when he wanted to join forces with Scaramucci to block the attack, the doctor saw the other party reaching out to touch the root like a madman.
That was a day when I was mad at my own dog teammate.
After paying the price of several sliced avatars being almost seriously injured and difficult to treat, the doctor finally settled the matter.
Of course, the price also includes preventing the gods of Xumi from discovering what they are doing, otherwise Dotore would not be so kind as to protect everyone.
However, a huge problem arose afterwards. Guo Beng obtained a rather shocking piece of information from the dark roots.
That was an era thousands of years ago, when a wise man who was about to step deep into the underground had a premonition that his action might fail, so he wrote the information they obtained into the earth veins.
And this news happened to be captured by Guo Beng, with an obscure part of it.
Or rather, the remnants that are about to be erased.
But even this part, the impact it brought was enough to almost make Guo Beng disappear completely into thin air. Even in the memories of others, there was no trace of Guo Beng anymore.
In order for the research to go smoothly, Dottore had no choice but to ask the other slices to keep a close eye on Scaramucci.
This kind of restless kid is so likely to cause problems!
