To Steal Divine Authority, Bai Ye Put On a Monocle

"I'm here to deliver medicine to Dehya!"

Bai Ye smiled and said to Dehya.

Dehya frowned. "Hey, there's a limit to lying, isn't there? Even if Dehya is the kindest person, she'll definitely get angry. Listen to me, you should leave now. If you encounter any difficulties, just let us know, and we'll help you if we can."

This little guy wouldn't make up a lie just to strike up a conversation with us, would he? That wouldn't be good.

What if I say I didn't lie?

Bai Ye said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

As he said this, he took out the pill and showed it to Dehya.

"This is the highly effective medicine for treating Scales of Corruption. You can give it a try."

Upon hearing Bai Ye say this, Dehya subconsciously examined the medicine.

It has a pleasant fragrance, and the surface of the pill gleams, making it look quite extraordinary.

"Um?"

This really does look a bit like a drug!

"That's what Dehya thought to herself."

This medicine was developed by the Chang Sheng; it's a genuine elixir of Adepti, naturally possessing miraculous properties. Even someone like Dehya, a mercenary who frequently travels in the desert, could discern its special characteristics.

"Wait a moment, I'll go ask Miss," Dehya said to Bai Ye.

"Good."

Bai Kuaye nodded.

Dehya went inside, and then came out a while later.

"The young lady is inside; she's inviting you in."

"Good."

Bai Ye nodded and then followed Dehya inside.

As she walked over, Dehya couldn't help but ask Bai Ye:

What's your name?

Even Dehya couldn't help but feel curious when she saw a pretty girl.

"Bai Ye."

"This name is a bit strange!"

"Dehya said, resting my chin on my hand."

"Well, I'm from Liyue. So my name is different from that of the Sumeru people."

Dehya's face lit up with anticipation. "Liyue, that really is a faraway country. I've never been there in my life, and if I ever have the chance, I'd love to go and see it for myself."

"That will definitely make your trip worthwhile."

"I hope so. By the way, since you're from Liyue, what are you doing in Sumeru? Is it for work?"

"No, I'm at the Akademiya right now."

"The Akademiya? You're a student of the Spantamad School?"

Perhaps the students of the Spantamad school will think about researching drugs to treat Scales of Corruption.

"Oh no, I am Logic School."

As she was walking, Dehya paused.

"Aren't those the guys who make civil engineering machines?"

"Yes, that's right." Bai Ye nodded and said seriously, "The human body is just like a machine; it can be fixed with a little repair."

"Stop!"

Hearing Bai Ye's words, Dehya was momentarily bewildered. Even someone as uneducated as her felt that Bai Ye's actions were far too reckless. A broken mechanism could be repaired, but what if something happened to a person?

"Just kidding, my medicine can replenish vitality and relieve some symptoms."

"Oh, I see."

Dehya nodded.

Then, the two of them went to Dehya Zede's room.

Pushing open the door, Dehya began to scrutinize Bai Ye.

Bai Ye felt a little strange being stared at like that.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with me?"

Dehya smiled and said, "No, I thought Dehya was exaggerating, but now I realize she didn't describe it enough."

Then, before Bai Ye could react, she pointed to the pill.

"Is this the drug you're going to use on me?"

Bai Ye nodded.

Dehya then asked, "How much Mora does this medicine require? I'll give it to you now."

"Well... let's wait until you get better before we talk about it. To be honest, this medicine is only effective in theory. You are the first person to take this medicine."

Bai Ye said honestly.

"What!?"

Dehya looked bewildered.

"Are you using prostitutes to test drugs?"

Anger flashed in her eyes.

I thought he was a good person when we were chatting just now, but then he told me that he actually planned to use prostitutes to experiment with drugs.

"In a sense, that's true." Bai Ye nodded firmly. "However, I can assure you about this drug. Even if it doesn't cause any adverse effects, she herself will not be in any danger."

"That won't work either."

Dehya still denied it.

"I can guarantee that. My medicine concentrates life force into it to replenish the life force of Scales of Corruption."

Hearing Bai Ye say this, Dehya hesitated for a moment, and her gaze involuntarily turned to Dehya.

Based on her usual combat intuition, Dehya felt that Bai Ye was telling the truth. However, since this matter concerned the safety of her employer, she couldn't say much. Moreover, from a safety perspective, this kind of drug that no one else had used was quite dangerous.

However, Dehya looked at Bai Ye with a burning gaze and said, "Um, I have two questions for you."

"Hmm? What's the problem?"

"The first question is, where does this life force come from?"

She wanted to recover her health, but she didn't want a situation where she would lose others to gain herself.

"This vitality can be obtained from any living creature. I used about a thousand catties of fish to make this medicine for you."

"Oh."

Dehya was relieved.

Then she asked the second question:

"If I take this medicine, will it significantly improve my physical condition? Will I be able to move around like a normal person then?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it is."

"Okay." Dehya nodded, and then reached for the medicine from Bai Ye's hand.

She ate it directly.

The moment she swallowed the food, Dehya looked at her nervously, afraid that something might happen to her.

Bai Ye's gaze was also fixed on Dehya.

I was worried that if something happened to her, it would be easier to handle.

Dehya's face flushed.

Just now, because she was suffering from the Demon Phosphorus Disease, she was too weak to think about such things. But now, as she felt a warm sensation in her body, she keenly noticed Bai Ye's gaze.

After slightly dodging, Dehya began to feel the changes in her own body.

She had initially thought the warm feeling was an illusion, but then she realized it wasn't. Previously, due to the demonic phosphorus disease, she had no strength in her limbs and could barely stand; now, she felt her body gradually regaining strength.

Seeing her punching motion, Dehya's eyes lit up instantly.

The force of that punch was nothing to her, but it was vastly different from the frail body of Dehya in the past.

"You, you're all better?!"

She asked Dehya with surprise.

That's way too fast!

"Yes, I feel that my body and health are no different. In fact, I'm even healthier."

Dehya stood up again to stretch her body.

This was something she never dreamed of before.

Bai Ye watched from the side, shaking his head slightly.

"Although you look very healthy, the root of the disease has not been eliminated. The Scales of Corruption in your body will continue to consume your life force."

"Ah?!"

Dehya opened her mouth, looking somewhat disappointed.

However, she quickly smiled.

"I'm content as long as I can get things going recently. I'd like to participate in the Sabzeruz Festival, and this time I can really enjoy myself."

"Don't despair. Restoring this little bit of your health will give me time to completely cure the Scales of Corruption."

"Can you solve this?"

This time, Dehya believed it more.

"Yes, I can handle it."

Bai Ye nodded firmly.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Dehya, "Well, I still need to make a few more medicines. Miss Dehya, I'd like to know who else in Sumeru City has a more severe case of Scales of Corruption recently, so I can help them recover first."

"Give it to me."

Upon hearing what Bai Ye said, Dehya made a promise.

After chatting for a while longer, Bai Ye and Dehya said goodbye.

As they were about to say goodbye, Dehya Bai Ye invited Yuya, "Um, I'm thinking of organizing Sabzeruz Festival. Would you be able to come and support us?"

"Good."

Bai Ye nodded in agreement.

As she watched him leave, Dehya's expression stiffened slightly.

Dehya knew what she was thinking, and came to deliver something to her Bai Ye, but Dehya still didn't believe him many times.

"Don't worry, that boy won't mind. If you still feel sorry for him..." Dehya said to her with a smile, "Tell him properly during the Sabzeruz Festival."

The next day, Chang Sheng returned to Serenitea Pot in the Bai Ye to continue his research on the Scales of Corruption and the production of pills.

Bai Ye headed to Dottore's experimental workshop.

Before setting off, Dottore came to inform him that the Grand Sage of the Akademiya would be coming on the 1st, and that Bai Ye should prepare his disguise in advance.

Guizhong Bai Ye appeared at this moment and said to Yu Ye, "Come, come, little Bai Ye, your teacher was a master of disguise back then. Look, I'll give you a little makeup and you'll become a completely different person."

Bai Ye was somewhat surprised to hear this.

"Teacher, when did you learn this?"

"Hmm... I don't remember it clearly yet, but it should be the preparation I made when I was playing pranks on other people."

Guizhong adopted a thoughtful expression and spoke to Bai Ye.

After Bai Ye silence, Ye said very seriously, "Teacher, I feel that the fact that you weren't killed by Guoba and the Adepti back then shows how good their self-control is."

Guizhong tapped Bai Ye's forehead.

"Stop talking nonsense and let me do your makeup."

"Um."

Bai Ye nodded.

After that, Guizhong began to do his makeup.

Bai Ye's face began to change.

That childlike expression began to mature, and his features became more defined, with his eyes becoming deeper. He no longer looked like a Liyue person but more like someone from Snezhnaya or Mondstadt.

There are too few Liyue people with Sumeru's true form, so there is still a risk of being recognized.

"Hmm... it's hard to disguise your hair like that. How about you wear a hat later? Hmm, Fontaine style one, so that you have absolutely no connection to Liyue."

Guizhong said to the Bai Ye.

"Good."

Bai Ye secretly prepared a top hat to cover her golden hair. She also took off her Liyue clothes and prepared a black robe Bai Ye.

"Hmm? This black robe you're wearing is quite a bit taller than you, isn't it?"

Guizhong looked at the black robe with some curiosity.

"My height is also a weakness, so I thought I would create a mechanism."

Bai Ye took out a pair of mechanisms and put them on his feet, then put on a boot over them, instantly making him much taller.

She's 1.7 meters tall.

"Yes, this way it's less likely that our search for Dottore will be leaked."

The Bai Ye filled with longing.

After thinking about it, he was worried that the Grand Sage would see the flaw if he looked closely, so he wanted to add something on top to block the view.

"Hmm, this one is good."

Bai Ye picked up a monocle.

I'm off to the experimental workshop in Dottore.

Let's see those who are currently considered Scaramouche but will eventually become my mechs.

He arrived at the experimental workshop.

Ring the doorbell according to the code.

Soon, a Scaramouche with a sour face appeared in front of Bai Ye.

He narrowed his eyes when he saw Bai Ye, who was now in disguise.

"Where did this rat come from, that it managed to track us all the way here?"

As he spoke, he was about to make a move.

"Hey, Scaramouche, it's me, Bai Ye."

Seeing that the Scaramouche were about to attack him, Bai Ye quickly spoke up.

"Um?"

The Scaramouche ceased their movements.

He carefully examined Bai Ye.

"Your disguise is really good. It seems you have a lot of experience in escaping by disguising yourself!"

He mocked Yu.

Yeah, I can't kill him, I can't fight him, I'm just complaining a bit.

"I did Bai Ye's makeup, you just wait."

Upon hearing what the Scaramouche said, Guizhong appeared and said fiercely.

The Scaramouche's mouths twitched.

How come she did the makeup?

Bai Ye the Scaramouche who had stopped moving, Ye continued forward.

"Grand Sage Azar, we are almost ready on our side. Now it depends on your the Akademiya to provide us with the computing power for the calculations."

Dottore spoke to an old man dressed in the robes of the Akademiya.

Bai Ye knew him.

Even if it turns into a formless grass, it can still be recognized.

Grand Sage, Azar.

At that moment, Azar and Dottore saw Ye Bai Ye.

"What's going on? Aren't we the only ones here?"

Azar said to Dottore.

Dottore smiled without changing his expression and said, "This one, he is Her Majesty the Tsaritsa's secretary, and he is here to supervise our work."

The Scaramouche would admit their mistakes, but Dottore had no doubts whatsoever.

"Yeah?"

Azar said to him.

Meanwhile, Bai Ye's expression remained calm, though she seemed somewhat bewildered.

When did I get another job?

Does this job pay a salary?

This was the first thought that came to Bai Ye's mind.

At this moment, when Azar heard Dottore reveal Bai Ye's identity, he didn't think much of it and continued, "I have already made preparations in this regard using the Akasha Terminal. We will provide sufficient power for this god-making activity."

"Um, may I offer a different opinion?"

Upon hearing Azar's words, Bai Ye quickly spoke up.

"We can provide motivation in other ways."
