Chapter 217 Crow
Chapter 217 Crow
The villa built in the mountains looks magnificent, with countless antique paintings and calligraphy as decoration. The old man leans on the sofa with his eyes closed, and bodyguards in black suits patrol the villa. He looks exactly like every wealthy old man who is afraid of death.
After a long time, the door with a black crow printed on it was opened. A man wearing a black mink coat and with half-long curly hair came in.
A handsome man wearing black thin-framed silver chain glasses walked in. He bent slightly humbly and his attitude was respectful, making it impossible to find any fault with him.
"Pantaroni, you are finally here."
The old man opened his eyes. Although he was over 70 years old and his eyes were unclear, he still held power in his hands and refused to let go, just like all the unwilling and power-hungry evil spirits.
And such people usually have only one ending, the only ending.
"Yes, Mr. Crow." On the surface, the rich man did not reveal his inner thoughts at all. His current status and the degree of trust he enjoyed from the old man far exceeded that of Gin. After all, he was the one who really "had hope" of delivering the secret recipe of immortality to this old man who did not want to face death, while Gin - he had not researched anything.
"This is some information I got out of there. Please take a look." Placing the document in front of the old man, he took two steps back.
These were of course said by Diluk himself, but is this a way to immortality or a train to death - who knows?
Sure enough, after learning that what was recorded on the paper was the method of immortality that he longed for so much, a gleam of light flashed in the old man's turbid eyes. He grabbed the paper tightly as if he had a last burst of light, and quickly read through it, one line per three seconds.
The above record is very complete, including the method mentioned by Diluk, Pantaroni's assessment of this possibility, and the preliminary experimental conclusions in Dottore's laboratory.
But in the eyes of the old man, an old man who was about to step into the grave of death, he only saw the last line of conclusion.
【After evaluation and initial experimental verification, the feasibility of this method is 80% and can be tried. 】
feasible.
This method is feasible.
The old man's breathing became heavier with excitement. His eyes were bloodshot because of the excitement. He stared at the rich man with a terrifying and excited look: "Demon God's remnants, how much is left in our laboratory?"
The rich man bowed his head slightly: "There is still 10% of storage left."
The old man nodded, and he said coldly: "Suspend other research on the Demon God Residue, and put all the remaining residues into Dotole's experiment. In addition, notify Gin to suspend all non-essential tasks and focus on collecting the Demon God Residue."
"Yes, Mr. Crow." The rich man nodded, turned and left the room.
As a businessman, a banker, a person built up by interests and money, it is natural that he will be more loyal to whoever gives him more interests.
And crows have always been very generous to their partners.
What a pity! If I had nothing else to ask for and were that rich man who has nothing but money, I would really be touched by your generosity.
What a pity.
***
Qianzhi brought Diluk and followed the child from the Hearth House. After walking through the winding underground roads, the three of them came out of a cave in the back mountain.
There was also a man outside wearing a miner's uniform with a shovel next to him.
He is also a child of the Hearth House.
The man heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the child come out, and hurriedly came forward: "Vincent, you are finally back. How are you? Are you hurt? I have some medicine here... Oh, sorry, I am Steele, a member of the Hearth House."
It was evident that the road they had come up by was dug out by this Steele with his spade.
"Steele, I'm fine." Vincent shook his head. He looked at the two of them and said, "We have completed the mission our father gave us. You can go quickly. We can get out by following this road. I want to go back to help Sister Sharon. Although she is good at finding the way, she is not good at fighting."
"Then I'll meet you outside." Steele nodded. Every child in Hearth House has their own strengths and areas. Compared to working alone, the children of Hearth House are better at cooperation.
Vincent nodded to Steele, turned and ran back, disappearing inside in the blink of an eye.
"You two, please leave quickly." When his family was not around, Steele was a very silent person. He nodded to Diluk and Chizhi, and continued to stand guard at the entrance of the cave.
Qianzhi helped Diluk walk away. Diluk looked back in the direction of Steele. After a while, they continued to move forward.
"Your brother, Kaeya is very worried about you." Qianzhi suddenly whispered, she did not turn back to look at Diluk. The young man was stunned, and it seemed that Kaeya's teasing concern appeared in front of him. Even though he knew that Diluk was fine, he would still worry unconsciously...?
Although Kaeya is not his real brother, Diluk has already gotten used to protecting him over such a long time.
“I’ll contact him.” Diluk said softly.
In the laboratory, the doctor has locked himself in the laboratory for more than a month, and has been claiming to the outside world that he is researching the elixir of life. If it were not for the fact that his laboratory often produces some small results, although it cannot achieve true rejuvenation, it can also add some vitality to Crow's aging body. Crow would have stopped using this laboratory long ago.
But now, the doctor who was supposed to be doing experiments on the laboratory table was sitting on the ground, leaning against the white laboratory table and gasping for breath.
His breathing was heavy, as if he was seriously injured, and his whole body looked like he had been fished out of the water. His eyes were slightly closed and his body was twitching unnaturally.
[Zizi—control—zizila—fight—]
[Sizzle, sizzle—fight—sizzle, sizzle—defeat]
After a long time, as the chat room's flickering as if there was a bad connection ended, the mechanical sound in my brain fell silent again.
"It's finally over..." The doctor relaxed and tried to stand up by supporting himself on the laboratory table with his hands, but he fell down again halfway because he had no strength left.
I don’t know if the system has a premonition that its mission is going to fail, and it has been trying to break through the data blockade frequently during this period.
This data blockade was accomplished by the Doctor during his fifth reincarnation, by taking advantage of the loopholes designed by the main system for each subsystem, and successfully trapping this subsystem whose capabilities and technology far surpassed the rest of the world.
Perhaps it's because it has been trapped for too long, the subsystem has been able to slowly break through the loophole. The moment the subsystem breaks through the loophole, Doctor, the main carrier of the subsystem will become the last line of defense.
In the whole of Teyvat, he is the only one who can do this.
"Really... I hope it's not some clichéd self-sacrifice script."
