This MC is so original

After bringing Kaeya and Captain Jean to sit on the sofa, Keqing signaled Lu Xiu with her eyes not to talk nonsense, then turned to Captain Jean and asked.

"Captain Qin, do you have anything to ask?"

Qin pondered for a moment and said, "I want to know the whereabouts of the lady. Judging from the location in the video, she should be near Mond Church, but our people didn't find her. Did you kill her at that time, Mr. Lu Xiu?"

"No, after seriously injuring the lady, Lu Xiu rushed to deal with the bombs planted throughout Mondrian. Is the lady missing? She might have been rescued by the Fatui."

It was the first time that someone lied with their eyes open, which made Keqing's ears red. She resisted the urge to turn around and look at the wardrobe where the lady was hidden, and calmly answered Qin's question.

Sure enough.

When Qin heard Keqing's answer, a look of understanding flashed in her eyes. If Lu Xiu had said this himself, she might still be suspicious, but the person who said this was Keqing, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, so the credibility was greatly increased.

"No wonder only the Mondstadt Cathedral exploded. It seems the Knights of Favonius owe you a favor, Mr. Lucius."

Qin thanked Lu Xiu very solemnly.

Lu Xiu felt a strange feeling in his heart. He blew up the other party's floor, and the other party still thanked him. This feeling...

The needle does not poke.

"However, although Mr. Lu Xiu has helped us a lot, you have also left us with a very serious problem..."

Qin suddenly revealed a bitter smile: "You impersonated Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, and shook the people's faith. This is a troublesome matter."

Keqing was about to answer but Lu Xiu raised his hand to stop her.

Keqing became nervous when she saw that he wanted her to answer. Lu Xiu gave her a reassuring look before speaking.

"I'm sorry about that, but there's nothing I can do. The situation was extremely urgent. For some reason, the lady mistook me for Barbatos. I wanted to deny it loudly, but I saw from her expression that she must be planning something bad to happen to Mondstadt. Mondstadt is such a beautiful city, I couldn't bear to see it destroyed. Impersonating Barbatos was just a delaying tactic. There's nothing I can do about it."

Lu Xiu said this with a righteous look on his face. If Keqing and the others didn't know the inside story, they would probably have believed it.

On the contrary, Qin and Kaiya, who were unaware of the inside story, were immediately filled with respect after hearing Lu Xiu's speech.

"I see, Mr. Lu Xiu is so righteous!"

I said I was taking a day off yesterday but I updated normally afterwards. I can't really take a day off today, so I'll make up for it tomorrow.

Every time I update, I will write the current update progress at the end of the chapter for everyone to supervise. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Chapter 137 Interrogation of the Lady

"I'm here to thank you on behalf of the people of Mondstadt, Mr. Luxiu."

Qin and Kaiya bowed their heads solemnly to thank Lu Xiu, but when Qin raised her head again, she still had a sad look on her face, but this time, she was worried about Lu Xiu.

"Mr. Lu Xiu, although we are grateful for your actions, your face has been revealed in the video. I'm afraid the citizens of Mondstadt might treat you... very poorly."

"It's ok."

Lu Xiu, however, remained calm and composed. "I did this knowing that the people of Mondstadt might not welcome me in the future, but what does it matter? If we had to consider the consequences of everything, then we wouldn't have to do many things."

After hearing this, Jean and Kaeya bowed respectfully to Lu Xiu in the Liyue way with admiration on their faces.

"Mr. Lu Xiu is so righteous."

"Alright, let's put my side of the story aside. Miss Qin, how are you and the Knights of Favonius going to handle this matter? If there's nothing else you can do, you can just list me as a wanted criminal to appease the people's anger."

Lu Xiu didn't mind this. He just regarded it as a small compensation to Mond. After all, no one could really kill him.

When Qin heard Lu Xiu say this, the smile on her face suddenly turned serious.

"Mr. Lucius risked his own reputation to protect the citizens of Mondstadt. How could the Knights of Favonius dare to take advantage of their misfortune? Mr. Lucius, please relax. Leave this matter to us. I have already figured out how to explain it to the public."

"Really? That's great."

After a brief chat, seeing that they could not get any more information about the lady from Lucius, Jean and Kaia simply stood up and said goodbye. At the moment, there were still many matters waiting for them to deal with in Mond, especially the large group of citizens stranded outside the city who were waiting for her to go back and make arrangements. They did not have much time to spend on chatting.

Lu Xiu sent Qin and the others to the gate of the villa with a smile on his face. After watching them leave, he returned to the villa and closed the door.

"Finally, I left. It's such a hassle to deal with these official people."

Lu Xiu sat down on the sofa, turned around and waved to Ba Che, indicating that she should let the lady out.

Ba Che opened the cabinet door and found that the lady who was stuffed inside had woken up and was looking around with horror.

Originally, when she saw the unfamiliar face of Ba Che in front of her, she thought that she had been sold out by Lu Xiu. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she saw Lu Xiu sitting on the sofa not far away from Ba Che's side. The heart that had been relieved was suddenly lifted up again.

When Ba Che reached out and took the lady out of the closet, Lu Xiu realized that she was awake.

"Hey, you're awake? That's good, it saves me from having Mona splash water on your face to wake you up."

"What?"

Mona, standing by, was unhappy. She pouted and said with some dissatisfaction, "If you want to interrogate the prisoners, then interrogate them. Why bring me along? She's the Fatui's executive officer! What if she runs away and causes trouble for me? I'm just an ordinary astrologer and don't want to cause any trouble!"

Lu Xiu immediately glanced sideways. Mona said this, but her butt didn't even move on the sofa next to her.

"Ma'am, you are my prisoner now. I don't need to tell you what a prisoner should do, right?"

Lu Xiu stood up from the sofa, walked to the lady who was slumped on the ground, half squatted down, raised his hand to stroke his chin, and smiled evilly at the lady.

Seeing Lu Xiu's frivolous smile, the lady's already fair cheeks suddenly became even paler. She bit her lower lip stubbornly and turned her head away.

"I won't give in! Stop dreaming!"

"Really? I didn't expect you to be so stubborn. I hope you'll still have one mouth left after you're cremated. I'm going to have to work on you next. Try to make her behave a little."

"Leave it to me, sir."

Even without Lu Xiu saying anything, Ba Che was eager to go on stage and deal with the lady himself. If he couldn't deal with the doctor, could he not deal with the other executives?

Having been tricked by the Doctor before, Bache now hates the Fatui's executive officer to the core.

Ba Che raised his hand and pressed it on the lady's crown, with a blue light emanating from the palm of his hand. The lady's cheeks suddenly trembled, her eyeballs rolled up involuntarily, and her teeth bit her lower lip harder and harder. Blood began to seep from her lips, and it was obvious that she was suffering great pain.

The lady couldn't hold on for more than a few seconds before she couldn't help but scream in pain.

In order to prevent her screams from causing unnecessary trouble, Osel set up a soundproof barrier around the villa.

The lady's wails of pain lasted for more than ten seconds. Seeing that her face was pale, Lu Xiu asked Ba Che to stop to prevent her from fainting again.

Ba Che let go of his hand and stood aside, while the lady collapsed half-lying on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Do you give in now?"

The lady still bit her lower lip tightly, but she did not say that she would not give in as stubbornly as before.

Seeing this, Lu Xiu raised his eyebrows and looked at Ba Che who was standing beside him and said, "She doesn't seem convinced. Ba Che, it seems your interrogation skills are a bit lacking. Give her another try."

"Yes, sir."

Ba Che was about to raise his palm and press it against the lady's crown. This frightened the lady so much that she crawled away a little and said hurriedly, "I give in. Just tell me what you need."

The lady gritted her teeth, her heart bleeding. She couldn't die before completing her revenge, no matter how much it cost!

"Wouldn't it be better to do this sooner? Why waste all that time suffering?"

Lu Xiu half-knelt down, raised his finger to lift the lady's chin, and asked coldly, "You should know what the doctor is looking for, right?"

PhD?

The lady shook her head decisively, but as soon as she shook her head, Lu Xiu turned to look at Ba Che. Ba Che understood and raised his hand to press on the lady's crown.

The lady screamed in agony, saying, "I rarely meet the doctor, so I have no idea what he's looking for, but I've heard Tartaglia talk about it!"

Lu Xiu raised his hand and Ba Che stopped immediately.

After being tortured like this, the lady's thin clothes were soaked with sweat.

"Next time, don't make me use other means to make you speak. Be smarter about some things and say what you need to say sooner. I don't want to say it again. Got it?"

The lady lowered her head in humiliation: "Yes..."

Seeing that the lady was finally convinced, Lu Xiu walked back to the sofa and sat down.

"Okay, tell me everything you know."

Chapter 138: The Three Executives Gather at Inazuma

The lady glanced at Lu Xiu, who was sitting on the sofa with a cold expression on his face, then turned to look at Ba Che, who had been standing beside her and raising his palm to look at her from time to time. She pursed her lips and opened her mouth to tell everything she knew.

"I don't know much about the Doctor. After the Liyue operation failed, Tartaglia should have been punished by the Queen, but the Doctor single-handedly took the Queen's punishment, which saved Tartaglia from punishment. According to what Tartaglia told me, as a condition, the Doctor asked him to find an underground ruin. As for what ruins they are, I don't know, but the Doctor was willing to take the punishment for Tartaglia for this ruin. Coupled with your attitude, it's clear that this ruin is not simple."

Lu Xiu rolled his eyes speechlessly. He didn't care whether Tartaglia was punished or not. "Get to the point."

The lady nodded and said, "The day before yesterday, when I fainted after being attacked by you, Tartaglia took me to the hospital. After I woke up, I asked Tartaglia for help, but he refused, saying that he had already found a clue to the underground ruins the doctor had asked him to find. He didn't tell me the details, but he told me that the ruins were in Inazuma. He also left for Inazuma that day, so he must have arrived there by now."

"Rice wife?"

Lu Xiu rubbed his chin. He had heard of this country. It seemed to be an island country. According to the lady, the portal to the end of the world should be under Inazuma's ground.

However, in order to confirm this, Lu Xiu took out an Eye of Ender from his backpack and threw it lightly.

Everyone thought that the small bead thrown by Lu Xiu would be thrown directly into the wall by him, but surprisingly.

After leaving his hand, the small bead did not move in the direction where Lu Xiu threw it. Instead, it slowly floated in the opposite direction. After floating about four or five meters, it stayed quietly in the air. A moment later, the small bead suddenly exploded out of thin air, leaving no fragments behind.

"Damn, the first one broke. This is really bad luck."

Lu Xiu grumbled quietly, then turned to Keqing and Mona and asked, "Was the direction the Eye of Ender just flew towards Inazuma?"

Keqing shook her head. "I can't tell the direction in this room."

Lu Xiu turned his head to Mona again. Mona raised her hand and summoned the water mirror and said, "Don't worry, let me tell your fortune."

After a while, Mona dispersed the water mirror and nodded to Lu Xiu. "It's the direction of Inazuma, yes, but how did you do it just now? The trajectory of that little ball is too counterintuitive, isn't it?"

"That's the Eye of Ender. It will only fly to the location of the End Portal." Lu Xiu explained casually.

"End Portal?" Keqing muttered the term softly. She had come across the Hell Portal built by Lu Xiu in Liyue before. "Is this End Portal, like the Hell Portal, a portal to another world?"

"Yes, the End of the World is a place more dangerous than Hell, but it also hides various opportunities."

The boxes in the End City and the outer islands of the End contain various enchanted equipment and elytra, but they are difficult to obtain.

If one accidentally falls into the void, the only outcome is death.

"Then Doctor, are you looking for this portal to enter the End of the World?" Keqing frowned. Hell is dangerous enough, but Lu Xiu said that the End of the World is even more dangerous than Hell. If the Doctor opens this door and lets the creatures inside out, wouldn't that be even more dangerous?

Lu Xiu nodded. "Since we're looking for a portal, it must be to enter the End of the World. Hey, I didn't expect someone would want to speedrun more than me."

Lu Xiu must go to the End of the World, but there is no rush now. He has a hunch that since the portal to the End of the World is in Inazuma, Inazuma's authority mission must be related to the Ender Dragon.

If the doctor wants to go in, let him go in. Anyway, once you enter the End, unless you kill the Ender Dragon, only players can leave the End by other means.

However, what Lu Xiu is a little unsure about is whether there will be any changes in the End of the World after the real world texture pack is loaded?

Especially the Ender Dragon, she is the only boss in MC with a name. With the blessing of the real texture pack, it is very likely to become intelligent. What if she finds a way to get out of the End...

Lu Xiu's brows frowned but quickly relaxed. Even if the Ender Dragon came out, it would come out from under Inazuma's ground, a country he had only heard of. Even if it was ravaged by the Ender Dragon, he didn't have much emotional fluctuation.

"Besides Tartaglia, who else are Inazuma's other executive officers?"

Putting the matter of the Ender Dragon aside for the moment, Lu Xiu asked the lady another question.

After a moment's thought, the lady replied, "Tartaria, Sanbing, and the Doctor. I think Inazuma should be the only three executive officers."

"What? Three?!"

Keqing on the side seemed very surprised. One Fatui executive could cause trouble in several other countries. Inazuma actually gathered three executives. Inazuma might be in trouble.

"No, this matter is serious. I need to go back to Liyue to report." Keqing stood up with a serious face.

Inazuma is not too far from Liyue. If something major happens to Inazuma, it may affect Liyue. She must go back and inform others so that they can prepare early.

"Keqing, don't worry. Let's go back together after I finish my work."

Lu Xiu quickly stopped Keqing from leaving and said with a reassuring smile, "Don't worry, even if the three executors are in Inazuma, they won't be able to open the portal to the End of the World anytime soon."

The End Portal requires an Ender Eye made of Ender Pearls and Blaze Rods to open. The Doctor only has an Ender Pearl and not even Blaze Powder, so it is simply a fantasy for him to open the door.

This is also the reason why Lu Xiu is not in a hurry at all.
