Chapter 489: Tentacles of the Net
"What are you thinking about? This rumor is of course true." Ren Lian Lingyi said.
"The Invincible Body is ultimately just a ritual to strengthen your body. The ultimate goal is to make you gain something, not to make you lose something."
“What’s more, the raw material is a life force similar to your own original life force, or in other words, the life force that you have cultivated extra yourself.”
"So... there is no such thing as covering the original physique. Whatever physique you had originally, you will still have it after you have the Invincible Body. However, everyone is attracted by the powerful sight of the Invincible Body, so they ignore the effects of the original physique."
"Here is a piece of data for you to take a look at." Ren Lian Lingyi threw a piece of data to He Chuan Yixin.
Although Hechuan was not proficient in technology, it was still easy for him to understand such a simple summary table. "So... the invincible body will not only not affect the original physique, but will also enhance the original physique?"
"Not bad." Ren Lian Lingyi nodded. "For example, your evolved body, although it has strong adaptability, it is only relatively adaptable. Other aspects are actually quite average."
"And evolution only has the most suitable one, not the most powerful one."
"An invincible body can perfect your evolving body and provide a backup for your evolving body. Even if you encounter a bad environment in the future, you won't lose everything in your evolution."
"Hmm~ That's true. If I evolve into a floating water mushroom beast, it would be better to kill me." Hechuan nodded. "Then what do you think about establishing a mushroom temple?"
The Mushroom Temple is a temple that spreads the concept of the unity of the will of fungi and mushrooms. Whether it is the decorative style or anything else, it is very similar to the Buddhism in Ren Lian Lingyi's hometown in his previous life.
"Don't even think about Mingshen Island, Haiji Island and Qinglai Island. These places must be kept stable, and our faith must be based on the General." Ren Lian Lingyi said.
"Then there are only Bayin Island and Heguan~" said Hechuan Yixin.
"Not that stupid." Ren Lian Lingyi said.
The Nine-row Formation House and the Stepping Sand were both private plots given by the general to the military and craftsmen, so this place was naturally not among the options.
"Alas, none of them are good places." He Chuan complained, "Especially Heguan. When will that damn place become habitable?"
"Can we still leave such a good place for you?" Ren Lian Lingyi said with a smile, "To be honest, I feel that your strength may be very suitable for Heguan."
"By the way, I came back this time not only to be the invincible body, but also to ask about my future job arrangements."
"Emmm, your position will remain unchanged for the time being." Ren Lian Lingyi said, "At present, in Xumi, conventional combat power can no longer deter the Fatui. It just so happens that you have been promoted, so you can continue to serve as the chief of Xumi. We need a high-end combat force to maintain our interests in Xumi."
"Anyway..."
Anyway, there is no one more suitable than you as the follower of the will of the fungus.
Of course, Ren Lian Lingyi would not say it so directly, but this is what he meant.
"Then I will notify people to start preparing the ceremony and surgery for your invincible body. By the way, which level do you want?" Ren Lian Lingyi asked.
"It's strengthened. Thanks to the sponsorship of Master Sang Mahabayi." He Chuan said with a smile, "Then I will go to the laboratory to adjust my body first, Boss."
"Dolly~ What is ? Forget it, it's not an important matter anyway." Ren Lian Lingyi shook his head and continued to look at the information in his hand.
"Hey~ You guys are finally taking action. I thought you guys could hold it in forever."
The intelligence said that members of the 'network' began to contact 'travelers', trying to trick the travelers into doing something for them.
The members of the Iwakage Raikou Group have not yet investigated what exactly happened, but from the parts that have been discovered, they can speculate that these guys want to take action against the Kanjo-Bureau, which has been showing signs of fatigue in recent years.
Ren Lian Lingyi called the intelligence officer who was specifically watching the "net" and began to ask what the "net" was planning to do by deceiving the travelers.
"You also know that there are many corrupt officials in the Kanjo Bugyosho, which is in charge of port taxation . According to our speculation, the 'Network' wants to eliminate those corrupt officials who don't listen to them, and then support their own people to form a new network in the Kanjo Bugyosho."
"From the results of the operation, the 'net' has been somewhat successful, and travelers are a pleasant surprise for them."
"...Didn't the Hiiragi family, who are in charge of the investigation and enforcement, notice this matter?" Ren Lian Lingyi was a little bit unbelievable, because the Hiiragi family has been very wealthy in recent years.
And if he remembered correctly, there was news a few years ago that the elders of the Hiiragi family had joined the monastic order.
"Well... the Hiiragi family has been lacking in talent, and the past few generations have not been prosperous. The next generation only has one daughter... so..." The intelligence officer scratched his head. The Hiiragi family's affairs were really troublesome.
The Hiiragi family has not had many descendants since ancient times, and the inheritance has become increasingly difficult in recent years. Although the family was not large in the past, there were still two or three people in each generation. But this generation only has one Hiiragi Chisato, and she is a girl.
If it weren't for the old men who secretly joined the monastic order to support the family, the Hiiragi family would have collapsed long ago. Those elders have been making a lot of trouble in recent years, always secretly clamoring to divide up the Hiiragi family's property and so on.
These family elders are actually branches of the Hiiragi family, but they are already five generations away from the throne. Although they also have a small number of descendants, they have also passed down the family line.
They have long coveted the wealth of the Hiiragi family.
But old man Hiiragi never made any mistakes, and they had no good way to deal with it.
A few years ago, they tried to introduce the Hiiragi family to participate in the affairs of the Fatui, but old man Hiiragi wisely avoided it.
With General Inazuma ruling the country now, the monastic order is in power, and many big men are roaming around the world, so no one would dare to cause trouble.
As an important department in charge of diplomacy and taxation, no one would want to see the Kanjo Bugyo get into trouble.
But this could not stop the problems within the Hiiragi family.
Hiiragi Shinsuke (Kanjo Bugyo) has always wanted to find a son-in-law for Hiiragi Chisato, a man with both moral integrity and talent, but other family elders have always wanted to marry Hiiragi Chisato off, because after she gets married, they can nominate someone from their own family to succeed Hiiragi Shinsuke as Kanjo Bugyo.
Hiiragi Shinsuke has been troubled by the diplomatic issues with Liyue these days and has no mood to deal with his own family elders. However, the Kandei Bantou under several of the family elders were suddenly attacked and killed.
At one point, these family elders thought that old man Hiiragi was going to attack them.
