But... based on her previous impression of the Fatui, she felt that leaving the ruins to the Fatui to develop was not necessarily a good thing.
"Any questions? If the information I have is correct, that place should be where the people of the Salt Demon God live, and it should also be the scene where the Salt Demon God Heulia was killed. Aren't you interested?"
"... ..."
Looking at Bai Luo's smiling face, Wan Yan always felt that he was fooling her.
But... ... If this executive who calls himself Tartaglia is not lying, and that is indeed the place where the god he believes in was killed, it does not seem to be difficult to accept to develop that place.
"Also, I know who sealed that place."
Seeing that Wan Yan was still hesitating, Bai Luo directly dropped a bombshell.
"It's Morax, right? It has to be him?"
Just as Bai Luo expected, after he said this, Wan Yan asked with a little excitement.
Although the seal has never been successfully opened, Wan Yan keenly realized that this seal was not intended to protect the ruins here, but more to hide certain facts.
This can be seen from the project she carried out. With the efforts of a very small number of scholars willing to study this topic, they originally had the opportunity to investigate it clearly.
But there have been people secretly obstructing them, even threatening them.
Those people seemed to be afraid that they would unlock the relic and wanted to hide some truth that might exist in the relic.
Hiding the truth... ... The only person who could do such a thing could be Morax, the murderer of Heulia!
"How should I put it... ...it has something to do with him."
Bai Luo replied with a thoughtful expression.
I've said it before, Bai Luo never lies.
The same is true this time.
When Clement was conducting archaeological research at the Salt Underground, he also had people investigate the situation of the salt underground, and they discovered something extraordinary.
The matter of the seal is indeed related to the seven stars appointed by Morax.
"I promise you, but I want to go with you."
This time, Wan Yan was no longer as hesitant as before, and she agreed to Bai Luo's request immediately.
At the same time, her clenched fists were shaking slightly.
She knew that if she handed over the Salt God Ruins to the Fatui to develop, it would likely cause irreparable damage to the place.
But... ...if this can bring about the truth of history and help Heulia regain her former glory, then this decision that goes against ancestral teachings is worth it.
"In that case, let's sign this contract."
Seeing that Wan Yan finally agreed to take him to the ruins of the Salt God, Bai Luo reached out and took out a contract that had been drafted long ago from the table and placed it in front of Wan Yan.
Because he often finds loopholes in contracts, he knows the importance of contracts better than anyone else.
However, Wan Yan seemed a little surprised when she saw the contract.
Were these things something they had just agreed on? Why did he just take them out so easily
Could it be that... ...what they will talk about and whether or not I will agree to their conditions have already been anticipated by the other party
In fact, Wanyan had completely misunderstood.
The person Bai Luo originally wanted to negotiate with was Roger, that brainless guy who only knew how to act recklessly.
As long as he signed the contract, it would mean that everyone in their entire organization agreed to the above requirements.
However, Bai Luo did not expect that Wan Yan would come in person.
Even if Wan Yan came in person, since he had some understanding of the truth about the Salt God, it was only a matter of time before he could fool this silly girl even more.
Just like now, he just used the so-called truth to stimulate the other party, and this silly girl had already agreed to his request in a hurry.
All I can say is that she is too obsessed with the so-called truth.
After confirming that there was no problem with the contract, Wan Yan signed the contract on behalf of the entire organization.
But... ... the so-called no problem is only for her.
Bai Luo has countless ways to tamper with this contract.
"In this way, the contract is complete. Anyone who breaks his promise will be punished by being eaten by the rock. Ms. Wanyan, you must remember this."
After taking the contract handed over by Wan Yan, Bai Luo read it through, took out Tartaglia's seal from the drawer and stamped it.
With this mark, Wanyan can receive at least three million in funds from the Northland Bank every month, and all this money will be recorded in Dadalia's account.
Hmm? You asked why Tartaglia's seal was here with Bai Luo.
Wow, let alone Tartaglia's seal, just look at the bow hanging behind him, the pen holder on his desk, and even the chair he's sitting on. Don't they look familiar
Every time Bai Luo went to Northland Bank, he would bring back something.
If the window in Tartaglia's room wasn't too small and the table wasn't difficult to carry, perhaps he would have to replace his table with a new one.
Don’t miss it.
But Wan Yan felt something strange when she heard Bai Luo's words.
She is a follower of the salt goddess Heulia and is the number one black spot of the God of Contract.
The "Tartaria" sitting opposite was the one who killed the God of Contract with his own hands.
But here they were, signing this contract in the name of the God of Contract.
Tsk tsk
I always feel that the coffin lid of the God of Contract can no longer be held down.
"I will have people start preparing for the excavation tomorrow. Do you want to go back tonight or stay?"
He put away the contract in his hand, called Chu Yi who was waiting outside, and asked her to keep the contract. Then Bai Luo asked Wan Yan in front of him.
"Stay...stay?"
Looking at Bai Luo's very [sunny] and handsome smile, Wan Yan was stunned at first, and then her face turned slightly red.
As a believer of the Salt God, she devoted almost her entire life to her god.
Normally, when she had suitors, she would reject them outright.
But among those so-called suitors, is there anyone as direct as Bai Luo
At this moment, she was actually a little hesitant.
"How about...staying?"
Wan Yan replied with a blushing face, pinching the corners of her clothes with her hands looking a little uncomfortably.
"Okay, there are several empty rooms downstairs. Let Chu Yi clean one for you."
"???"
Chapter 633: The Original Demon’s Gameplay
Liyue has a phrase to describe the war between demons and gods.
From Tianheng in the south, to Yaoguang in the east, to Jueyun in the west, to Qingce in the north, all the lands are desolate and all the people are suffering. Liyue is so vast that it is hard to find a peaceful place.
This is one of the true portrayals of Liyue during the Demon War.
Whether it is a so-called fairyland or a rare place that no one cares about, there is no place that is peaceful and prosperous.
The cruelty of war invaded every inch of Liyue without any dead ends.
In that period, even the demons could not protect themselves, let alone ordinary humans
In order to provide a safe place for humans who were suffering from the war, a god traveled all over Liyue, risking being killed by other demons.
In that era, the gods were fighting and the war was raging.
Even a moment of peace comes with this luxury.
And what she finally found was the place now known as the "Salt of the Earth".
“This is it.”
The boat gradually approached the shore, and under the leadership of Wan Yan, the Fatui arrived at the Salt of the Earth in batches on small boats.
A long time ago, there weren't actually so many swamps here.
Ever since a great flood submerged Guiliji, this low-lying area has also been invaded by the flood and has become what it is today.
Apart from the Hillilians and the treasure-stealing group, there are basically few people coming here.
While his men were carrying instruments and tools ashore, Bai Luo's eyes fell on an area covered with dead grass nearby.
After picking away the dead grass, an ancient stone tablet was revealed.
It can be seen that this stone tablet is quite old, and the words on it have become somewhat blurred due to the wear and tear of time.
"Respectfully seal the traces in the salt, and do not open them without a reason."
The dry grass must have been deliberately covered by Wan Yan when she came here before, and the stone tablet also showed signs of being swept by someone.
Apart from this, there is nothing else worth studying.
"So it's here? No wonder we couldn't find it."
Clement looked at the sealed entrance that was gradually being cleared and spoke out.
When he led people here to look for the entrance before, they searched based on the places where the Hillichul people were entrenched and several places with obvious traces of ruins.
I never thought that the real entrance was in such an inconspicuous place.
"We have tried to break the seal at the entrance of the cave, and even invited someone with the Eye of God to help light up the nearby elemental monument, but it was of no use."
Wan Yan took out the drawings she carried with her and spoke.
There are some mechanisms they had developed before, but they are almost useless.
I don't know exactly where the problem is.
"We don't need this."
Looking at the drawings handed to him by Wan Yan, Bai Luo didn't even take it.
I even just took a glance at it and didn't take it seriously.
"Huh? But these are all the information compiled by my companions and I. They should still be of some use."
Wan Yan was so generous, but she actually had her own little tricks.
She felt that as long as she made a certain contribution to unlocking the seal, she would be able to gain a certain say in the development of the ruins.
"Ms. Wanyan, you have to remember that the original gods have their own ways of playing, but we original demons are different from the original gods."
As if he could see what Wan Yan was thinking, Bai Luo shook his head slightly and said.
Why are there Fatui in many ruins, but the entrances to the ruins show no signs of activation
Because the original demons always have shortcuts that the original gods don’t know about.
Under Wan Yan's slightly surprised gaze, two burly advance soldiers came over carrying an instrument.
This instrument looks very much like a doctor's style. Although it is extremely practical, its appearance is very "plain and unpretentious". When it was activated by elemental energy, Bai Luo was worried for a while whether it would fall apart.
Fortunately, although these little things that the doctor made look a bit shabby, they are quite useful.
The red veins eroded the light blue seal, just like adding a zipper to an intact piece of clothing and forcibly pulling it open partially.
As soon as the seal was opened, the sound of water splashing came out.
"Are you sure you want to go down with me?"
Standing on the edge of the seal, Bai Luo looked inside.
The area below was completely covered in white water vapor, through which one could vaguely see the shadows of some ancient ruins. The branches growing on the stone walls looked like ghostly shadows, sending chills down one's spine.
This is not a place that ordinary people dare to enter.
"Whether as a believer of Heulia or as an archaeologist, I must go down."
Is Wanyan afraid? A little, indeed, but she is more excited than afraid.
Although these Fatui cannot be said to be good people, at least they will not stand on the side of Morax and can treat the truth of history more fairly.
