"Young Talulah, did you drop this golden bottle? Or this silver bottle? Or this ordinary bottle?"
"You suddenly produced three... three bottles?"
"As you can see, and that is where my title as a river god came from. You can keep this ordinary bottle and the snake inside for now. Although the immortal Black Snake is a bastard, he knows no less about Ursus military intelligence than Patriot does. More importantly, the guy is cunning enough. You do not need to listen to his advice, but you need to know how to guard against people like him."
A performance artist once said: if you wanted to be an honest official, you had to be greedier than corrupt officials.
As an idealist, Talulah would inevitably face people as black-hearted as Black Snake in the future.
Talulah did not need to learn to act like such people, but she needed to know how to deal with them.
"The silver one. I'll have him return to Ursus and inherit his own property again."
"And I'll have someone take the golden one away for research."
"But there's a problem now."
"What problem? Do you need my help?" Talulah eagerly asked.
Having accepted too much help from Chen Luo, Talulah felt a little embarrassed.
"You can help if you want. The main issue is that the immortal Black Snake is down to just a single snake now, so he needs a body. I'm considering whether to use his original body or yours. After all, the fact that he used special Originium Arts on you is already common knowledge among Ursus's upper ranks."
"...That really won't be necessary." The thought of Koschei using her voice and face sent a chill through Talulah.
"Fine, then we'll use Duke Koschei's original appearance. Goodbye, no need to see me
