Chapter 69 Temporary Detention (Comic + Plot)...
The Otherworld is divided into Eastern Humans, Western Humans, Fantasy Races, and Spirit Races. In reality, the branches of the Bureau of Alien Affairs are mostly located in human territories. For example, in the twelve cities and seven towers of the Eastern Humans, there is a branch of the Bureau of Alien Affairs in each location.
However, in the territories of the Eldar and Fantasy races, the coverage of the Bureau of Alienation is not as comprehensive. For example, in the Giant Jaw Plains, there is only one branch in the city of Cero.
However, similarly, because there has been no director for nearly twenty years, the General Administration's control over the vast majority of these localities has become very weak.
The branch offices in human territories are basically taken over by the corresponding ruling forces in each region, so the Bureau of Alien Management is probably just a glorious mascot.
While the non-human territories' branch offices are not closely connected with the headquarters, many of them are extremely powerful in their own right.
Therefore, we should start by dealing with the branch offices in the human territory. The compressed file provided by Libertas was actually quite timely.
It's unclear whether Libertas offered it voluntarily or if it was at the behest of Grand Duke Lorenz.
Yan Shi was preoccupied with something and didn't pay much attention while reading the comics.
After the auction house collapsed, the crowd scattered.
Lin Cai met Bai Du, and the two of them quickly ran outside.
"No, running like this is too slow!" Bai Du shouted as he ran.
Lin Cai replied, "Then run even faster!"
Meanwhile, Shu Zhijing was still in the very center of the auction house, voluntarily becoming a target to block the Mithril Merchant Guild's guards.
Yu Junxun, who usually seemed indifferent to everything, suddenly became serious and did not retreat. Instead, he threw several magical artifacts towards the center to help Shu Zhijing.
Shu Zhijing said in a deep voice, "You go first, I'll cover the rear."
Gui Gemu took out two sheets of array paper from his pocket, quickly bit his fingertip to use his blood as a pen, then threw a few sheets around the auction house, leaving a few to protect himself.
After the two sides of the array paper were close to the uncollapsed side of the auction house, it was directly pasted onto the wall. The spirits followed the array patterns on the paper, flickering and wandering, before suddenly exploding.
Building upon the foundations of the auction house that Yanlan had destroyed, another severe blow was dealt to the auction house.
Both walls were destroyed, and the auction house was reduced to ruins.
The remaining paper envelope suddenly grew larger, enclosing the Guige curtain in the middle, and flew out of the auction house.
Just as the auction house was completely reduced to ruins, Bai Du shouted, "Lin Cai!"
He muttered to himself, and suddenly transformed back into his original form, no longer a tiny cub, but a very large tiger.
"Lin Cai, come up here quickly!"
Wow, the cat has grown into a big cat!
[I'm not calling him Little Orange anymore. Good job, Tiger Cub, you're a mature young man now!]
"It's a curse, isn't it?" the tiger cub muttered to itself before transforming into its original form.
[Besides Yan Lan's borrowed supermodel curse, a second curse has appeared!]
Lin Cai grabbed Mao Yue by the back and glanced back worriedly before leaving the auction house.
I wonder if Lanlan is at the auction house.
'Hopefully the explosion won't frighten Lanlan.'
Yes, yes, but I have a feeling that this explosion was caused by Lin Cai, or perhaps Lanlan.
[What blunt truth are you spouting? It was clearly the auction house that pulled the strings; they deliberately tried to frame Lanlan!]
My wife is so cool! Tear down all those black market auction houses!
In the direction Lin Cai and Bai Du left, guards from the Mithril Merchant Guild tried to surround them, but were stopped by a hand.
"Let them go. If Wei Ning asks, just say I gave her the staff she's always wanted."
Lin Cai's mother, Su Jiefan.
Yan Shi's eyelids twitched.
So Su Jiefan is also connected to the Mithril Merchant Guild?
However, all the key high-ranking members of the Mithril Company have now been taken into control by the Bureau of Alien Control. Apart from Wei Ning, who was about to enter the Void Realm, Liu Guang was dug out from the bottom of the collapsed altar. Apart from that, there are no other high-ranking members of the Mithril Company that Yan Shi was familiar with.
Yan Shi carefully reviewed all the high-ranking members of the business groups that Sheng Chunqiu had forwarded to her. Su Jiefan was not among them, nor were Guan Yunji and Wen Ying.
She got up from the sofa, curiosity taking over her mind. She put her uniform back on and made an urgent call to Sheng Chunqiu.
Where is Liuguang now?
Sheng Chunqiu: "Currently under control in Lingkong City Prison."
Yan Shi nodded: "Okay."
He then opened the world barrier: "God said, go to the Lingkong City Bureau of Extraterrestrial Affairs branch."
It's estimated that this comic update gave her a huge boost of faith, and she no longer experienced any blockages when using her abilities.
The Lingkong City branch had just undergone a major reshuffle by Yan Shi, making it one of the few branches without any internal traitors. Sheng Chunqiu's decision to temporarily detain Liu Guang here was probably partly due to this consideration.
When Liuguang was dug out from under the altar, he was severely injured and on the verge of death.
He has now received basic treatment and sits wearily in a corner of the prison.
Yan Shi stopped at the entrance of Liu Guang's prison and looked her over.
Unlike when he was full of vigor when he was seen at the Welch Hub, Liu Guang was now huddled in a corner, and it was impossible to tell that he was one of the masterminds who had once trafficked contraband and illegal immigrants.
completely.
Not pitiful.
If Liuguang is pitiful, then what about the innocent victims who suffer because of the Mithril Company?
Seeing someone coming from the doorway, Liu Guang also looked up at Yan Shi.
"Director Yan, thank you for coming." She said calmly, "What is my final verdict?"
Yan Shi: "God speaks the truth."
She ignored Liu Guang's words, whether it was repentance before death or feigning pitifulness to gain sympathy. The laws that had just bound Lin Cai tonight bound Liu Guang once again.
Liu Guang's expression changed: "Director Yan, is this how your Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs treats living beings?"
Yan Shi: "Are you even considered living beings?"
"It's already a mercy from the Bureau of Evil Affairs to spare your life for now, considering you've sold your soul to the devil."
Liu Guang: "But Director Yan, we just have no choice. I also need to live."
Yan Shi: "Tell me, what did Wen Ying do for you?"
Before Liu Guang could speak, a commotion suddenly came from a corner of the prison.
The limiter on the corner device exploded, and the surveillance camera shattered and fell to the ground.
Yan Shi looked over and shouted sharply, "Who is it!"
At the same time, he raised his hand and unleashed a blazing chain, sparks flying from it as it lashed out at the collapsed section of the prison.
Author's Note: I will be away from home for the next two days, but I will try my best to keep updating. I will update extra chapters when I get home on Monday!
Regarding the length issue that everyone is curious about, the full text is expected to be 750,000 to 800,000 words (this is the amount reported to the editor). I have never written such a long novel before, so the final version may deviate from the original...?
