No matter how you look at it, Kujo Sara's feathers are practically the same as a tiger's butt, right?
"By the way, which way are you going?"
Liu Bai tugged at Qi Liangliang, who was supporting him.
"Eh? Right! That's right! Lord Liu Bai, your room is on the other side!"
Qi Liangliang only then realized that she had gone in the wrong direction.
"I'll take you back right away!"
"hiss……"
Liu Bai gasped for breath.
"No need, just take me to the kitchen, let's have a midnight snack."
"Okay!"
Chapter 138 You'll cosplay as an old Chinese medicine doctor!
The next few days in Qun were spent teaching Eden every day, sparring with his three families, and occasionally going to Mei (Bius) to join in the fun.
...I just feel like fireflies have been avoiding me lately for some reason.
Very strange.
Overall, things were relatively calm. After Fu Hua arrived, Kiana didn't cause too much trouble—she just seemed a bit resigned to her fate.
After taking a look, Liu Bai realized that this person was being forced to study—Fu Hua, you did a great job!
Incidentally, over the past few days, my impression of the people around me has also improved slightly.
"If we didn't find it, we didn't find it. The surrounding ruins should have been cleared away."
Liu Bai brought the newly captured Thunderfire Sorcerer to update the map.
"After all, we've been dragging this out for quite a while—which, of course, is ultimately irrelevant."
Eliminating the assassins and Honkai Beasts on the outskirts of the city is already considered a success.
To be honest, the hidden abilities of those Herrschers are beyond our control—especially since Liu Bai's initial goal wasn't to capture a Herrscher through this matter.
The main goal is to expand the Death Knight Ranch. Herrschers are a bonus if they are present, but not essential.
As things stand now, thanks to all the hard work over the past few days, Liu Bai's Death Knight Ranch has 20 Thunderfire Sorcerers, and another 50 or 60 second-tier special-type Death Knights.
...Of course, the price to pay is the increasing pressure on the love potion.
I need to quickly capture a Herrscher of Domination to raise my Honkai favorability.
Otherwise, if things continue like this, Liu Bai will have to consider physical restraint and containment methods—although that would be quite aesthetically pleasing.
"Hmm... so what's next?" Shigemiko asked from the side—because Liu Bai had successfully "hooked up" with Rita, Shigemiko and Sakura no longer needed to stay at the shrine, but instead moved the statue into the Dust Song Pot. "How much longer will the merchant guild need to prepare?"
"It should be in the next few days."
Liu Bai glanced at the map; Rita had also shared their map.
Compared to the outside, where things are cleaned up and that's it, the "Honkai recurrence rate" in the city is very high, and there are also security problems that require their management—at least they are not too serious, since they were done by a Herrscher of Domination.
However, they couldn't ignore it, as the Herrscher of Domination's move was making things very difficult for the Undying Blade.
The Gray Serpents also submitted a report, stating that the number of Honkai disease patients in the city has been increasing recently, and various problems have also arisen in the process of distributing medicine.
Mebius was also in a bit of a mess. In Natasha's words, "The Jackal has been getting forced to have sex less often lately."
"Do we have to wait a few more days?" Chong Shenzi asked thoughtfully.
"After all, there's nothing we can do about it."
Fox Palace was also looking at the map.
"Since we have chosen to preserve the city, we must face this difficulty."
The people present were not cold-blooded; they unanimously agreed with Liu Bai's desire to protect the city.
Moreover, Liu Bai is an alien, and this place has little to do with him. He chose to protect the city, so what reason do these people have to object?
"Tsk, I always feel that this Herrscher's performance is a bit excessive." Bai scratched his head, realizing that the more he got to know it, the more he found that this thing was not on the same level as the Herrscher of Domination in the original work.
Although the Herrschers who dominate are known for being difficult, this one is even more difficult than usual.
The people nearby did not comment.
Although they could foresee the harm this Herrscher would cause to society, in terms of the current destructive power... it's really not that bad.
It doesn't take much time right now, and as far as one city is concerned, they can afford to wait.
Furthermore, external transportation is also secretly blocked by the World Serpent. Although it looks like everything is normal, the actual level of inspection has increased several times.
"However, the Chamber of Commerce also needs to revise its strategy. After what happened with Kiana, the Herrscher has definitely discovered me. No, they may even have started to pay attention to me."
Although I still don't understand what the previous Herrscher of Domination was trying to do, I'm sure things would have gone wrong if I hadn't been there.
His appearance was particularly sudden, his movement was time-stopping, and it was no different from teleportation.
Hmm... Although I can stop taking the medicine when the Chamber of Commerce approves it.
Although time-stop has many drawbacks, it is highly operable.
For example, Liu Bai can launch a surprise attack, pause feeding one at a time, and then let time flow again after feeding—mainly to prevent confusion about who to feed multiple people at once during the settlement process.
If it is indeed the Herrscher, then pause time, move the Herrscher between Su Mei and Ye Lan, and then resume time flow.
Of course, this is very laborious.
If there is more than one Herrscher and they are scattered, Liu Bai will quickly run out of time moving the watch around by himself—and so will Liu Bai's physical strength.
Of course, there are more scientific methods, such as dividing all employees into two groups and then administering the medication.
By gradually breaking things down through broadcasts—but that would be more likely to alert the enemy.
After all, Liu Bai can't just move the groups one by one after stopping time, can he? That would be scientific, but it might even take more time than the brute force method.
In short, the Chamber of Commerce is also working hard to develop a plan that makes things as convenient and safe as possible for Liu Bai.
Moreover, Liu Bai needs to show up no matter what—Mebius tries to seduce Jackal with his photos every day, but Jackal hasn't shown any favorability towards him.
Everyone present nodded.
Indeed, it would be putting the cart before the horse if Liu Bai were to encounter danger.
"Wait a moment, I've got a message coming in."
Liu Bai glanced at his bracelet.
The news brought a smile to Liu Bai's face.
"The Chamber of Commerce has come up with a solution."
What a coincidence!
"Um... wait a minute."
The solution Su Mei sent next made Liu Bai's expression turn strange.
After careful discussion with Ye Lan, they decided to go back to basics and directly administer the medicine to all employees.
—Then how did you manage to bring them here?!
"According to you, that Herrscher has met you, right? Can you confirm this remotely?"
Before Liu Bai could ask a question, Su Mei's next words surprised him, and then he suddenly understood.
Yes! The Herrschers of Domination share memories.
Wait a moment……
Liu Bai seemed to understand what Su Mei meant.
Su Mei and the others administered the medicine, and then they remotely observed and confirmed that the one receiving the notification sound was the Ruler of Domination.
But... how can we administer the drug to the Herrscher of Domination without them even noticing?
If you force each of them to take the medicine, the Herrschers aren't stupid.
Moreover, this needs to be done in an orderly manner, otherwise it will still cause broadcast confusion and other problems.
Liu Bai posted his question, and Su Mei's reply was very simple.
Find someone to be the doctor.
The same medication method will be used, but Liu Bai can no longer be the doctor here; we need to find someone else.
Replace the doctor with someone who has little reputation and has almost never shown their face.
When you see a psychologist, it's perfectly reasonable for the doctor to hand you a glass of water, right?
A normal person would definitely drink it.
Unlike Liu Bai's struggle with how to use the pocket watch, this plan was truly a return to basics, but unexpectedly it removed Liu Bai from the "main battlefield"... Well, Liu Bai thought about it and agreed.
Simple and easy to use.
Even if the Law Master senses something amiss, they won't be able to find the problem.
Then Su Mei's next question was whether Liu Bai had a suitable candidate for this matter.
If not, Liyue can send someone, but you'll have to wait a day.
If so, the plan can be implemented this afternoon.
"...The candidate."
Liu Bai glanced at Miyuki Chiyo subconsciously.
If we're talking about someone who currently lacks prestige and doesn't show their face in public, yet is capable of protecting themselves in the event of a sudden attack by a Herrscher of Dominion, then it has to be Mikoto Chiyo.
However... Mikoto Chiyo is a demon. Although this world may be used to the occasional appearance of two different races due to its setting, Mikoto Chiyo doesn't seem like an old Chinese medicine doctor.
The demon itself doesn't really resemble a doctor, and Chiyo's face is too delicate—of course, she would become too brutal after being stained with blood.
...Um, wait a minute, what did the old Chinese medicine doctor say, Fu Hua?
Liu Bai had secretly glanced at it before, and Fu Hua's attributes were at Natasha's level, which was already top-tier. Natasha, going all out, could potentially kill a Judgment-level Honkai Beast in a single battle.
More importantly, although she looks young, Fu Hua has a mature demeanor.
Is it difficult to change clothes and cosplay as an old Chinese medicine doctor?
It's not difficult; just put on the airs of someone from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners—even though what they need is a psychologist.
But no matter what, temperament is very important.
In addition, although it is remote control, Liu Bai does not need to be too far away.
For example, you could be inside the pot, and then have Su Mei or Ye Lan carry it with you.
Moreover, confirmation does not equate to action; once confirmed, the Herrscher of Domination becomes "bait."
"I go out for a while."
…………
"Me...playing a doctor?"
In Kiana's room, after Liu Bai made his request, Fu Hua was clearly taken aback.
“That’s right. In order to capture the Herrscher, we now need someone to play the doctor.”
There's no need to hide this matter.
"Compared to the others, Miss Fu Hua, your reputation is exceptionally outstanding, and even though you are living with Qi Hua, you keep a low profile."
More importantly, Fu Hua's temperament is quite versatile; she can be both rustic and handsome, and with a little dressing up, she can be considered a completely different person.
"I see..." Fu Hua pondered for a moment while holding her teacup. "Since it's for capturing a Herrscher, I won't refuse to do what I can. But... where do I need to go and pretend to be a doctor?"
"The Chamber of Commerce is now the only place where we can be sure that a Lawyer exists."
"..."
Ah, the Chamber of Commerce.
Fu Hua felt a little annoyed.
