Chapter 973 Forty. Secrets of the World

   Jaeger guarded Lu Li in front of him and took over the protective gap of Kiruat. Naxi waited aside, waiting for the next move of Lu Li, the core of the team.

  Lu Li took out the serial potion from his stomach bag again, dropped the pocket-sized visible potion into his eyes, and looked around the room with his dark, dark eyes.

   "Have you found the source?"

   Kiruat, who stood in front of everyone, inspected the house.

   "Notes on the desk, faint traces of contamination."

Under the    visible potion, a light black mist forms a distinct haze around the notes. The room was otherwise clean, except for a faint, shallow gray mist from the unfinished food on the plate.

   "Inspector Victor, no one entered the room after the incident, right?"

   "...Ah? Well, yes, no one is wrong...Pisonlot, my colleague came in after receiving the alarm." Inspector Victor replied quickly.

   "Is he acting abnormal?" Lu Li asked.

"No……"

   "Call him here," Kiruat said.

   "I'll call him now!"

   Inspector Victor quickly ran out and disappeared into the silent street corner.

   "Let's check the surroundings again." Kiruat looked back and said to Lu Li.

   Taking advantage of the duration of the Visible Potion, they used the other keys on the keychain to check the surrounding unoccupied rooms. The only problem was Lanner's room.

   The task was almost solved after Jaeger then wrapped the notes in a blanket called an alchemy blanket by alchemists.

   Ten minutes later, Inspector Victor came back with Pisenlot. The nervous cop was clean - uniform and breath.

   After Lu Li nodded, Kiruat said that Pisenlot was fine. After the mission was over, they would leave with notes.

   Yeager and Naxi are immersed in the dream of mission completion.

Even the meager reward of 1 credit does not mean that the task is easy or simple... Because negligence may lead to serious consequences, every time a task is performed, the Holy Light Team has to conduct a complex and tedious investigation, and even check every neighbor situation.

   This means they usually take a day or more to complete the task.

   And this time it only took them two hours since they entered Deep Sea City, half of which was on the road.

   Although the price is heavy.

   Six serial potions are worth the remuneration of the Holy Light team for several months of mission.

   Not even the top team can imitate - no one has the luxury to complete basic tasks with expensive sequence potions.

   "What you just let me eat...is a sequence potion?" A tentative tone sounded from the side.

   "That's right."

  Naxi's tone was proud, but Inspector Victor's subsequent performance puzzled them.

   "A serial potion that can make the residents of a block clean and feast! And you are just investigating a dead person!?"

   Inspector Victor screamed in disbelief, and ruthlessly stretched out his hand to dig his throat in remorse to induce vomiting.

   "What have I done... I drank my year's salary in one gulp..."

   In the past ten minutes, except for tears and saliva, he spit out nothing.

"Every day, people starve to death or eat dirty things and get kicked out of the late night city, you never care." Inspector Victor, who was tearful and snot, slumped on the ground, lost his soul, and even stopped trying to please these students, unable to wave his hand: " Go back to your ivory tower, you were born the gentlemen of the inner city."

   The Holy Light Team was silent due to the reversal of Inspector Victor's attitude, and silently left the dark alley.

   "It's unavoidable...that's why we're changing the world."

   Returning to the bustling district, Kiruat said, hoping that the team will not be depressed because of this.

   "What did he mean by dirty things?"

   "Disease meat... Because it will be deformed in a few months and banned by Deep Sea City, but every day there are residents who can't live to buy this cheap food."

  1 shilling can be exchanged for a fist-sized chunk of meat, and as long as you accept that you have only a few months or years left for the rest of your life, you will no longer suffer from hunger during this time.

   Return to the Giant Tree Academy camp to save the notes, and the Holy Light team returns to the streets again, this time to the inner city.

   Arrived at the cliff gate in the center of the outer city, the badge on the chest made the Holy Light team exempt from the guard review, and stood on the elevator to ascend into the inner city.

   Looking behind you, you can almost overlook half of the outer city.

   Lu Li parted with the Holy Light team at this time, and he wanted to leave temporarily.

   "Are you alone?"

   Kiruaite, who received Lu Li's answer, continued: "Then let's go to see his family with Naxi and meet at the camp later."

   Watching Kiruat and the others go away, Lu Li turned to another block.

  The paved roads are lined with delicate and clean buildings, sewage flows from under the canals to the outer city, and guards patrolling the streets have become frequent.

  Passers-by subconsciously avoided because of the cloak like a cultist, and they let go of their vigilance because of the tree badge.

   walked silently in the inner city. After a relatively long time, Lu Li arrived at the address given by Professor Chris.

  【Interracial Museum】

  This shop called the museum is not wide, it looks cramped and crowded, sandwiched between two shops.

   Pushed the door and entered the store, the bell on the door rang crisply.

   The dimly lit room was empty, with no guests and no host, just the strange objects displayed on the window shelves.

   Some are bones, some are clay pots, some are indistinguishable. But invariably, they all have the weight of history.

   "Humans are not the only intelligent race, what do you say?"

   A larvae like a cicada emerged from the deep room with a hunched and plump silhouette.

   "Obvious." Lu Li replied.

   Curved the already rickety body, bowed and said, "It is an honor to meet the hero of mankind, Your Excellency Lu Li. You can call me Weta."

   "Professor Chris said you wanted to see me."

  Lu Li doesn't like to talk about long-winded nonsense before the event, he is more used to being direct.

   "Yes, please accept my gift first..."

  Vita said, and the slender feet that supported the fat body moved to the coffin that was raised on the edge.

   opened the coffin that suddenly began to vibrate slightly.

  Because of Lu Li's arrival, the businessman opened his emotionless eyes.

   "Go back to the world, other merchants will tell you what happened."

  The merchant silently stepped out of the coffin and disappeared into the dark corner.

   "A long time ago, the world of an intelligent race was invaded..."

  Vita spoke slowly about the history of his race.

"Because of endless enemies, they fiercely resisted and lost their clansmen, lost their world, and wandered in a long and countless time of lost history. One day, an individual named Vita who likes to study history came to a new The world. He knew that if no changes were made, this world would be like every world invaded: the native intelligent races rebelled, the rebellion failed, and the remnants were forced to leave their homes, become one of the oddballs, and get lost in time..."

   "Vita has seen this scene countless times in its long history, and it hopes to change this time. So I found the hero of this race and persuaded this hero."

  Vita's protruding black eyes reflected Lu Li's figure.

   "How you treat the world, the world will treat you as you are."
