Xianyu was delighted to hear that, thinking Lan had finally changed his mind.
He instinctively opened his system inventory, intending to take out an item for his UR.
Just as he was about to retrieve it, he suddenly remembered their earlier argument. He immediately stopped, trying to consider what Lan might be thinking.
Before Xianyu could find the right words, Lan skipped over the subject without a change in expression and turned the conversation to the heliobi.
The UR's manner was open, his expression natural, as though he had never brought up the question of immortality.
Xianyu looked at Lan in confusion.
Lan lowered his eyes and repeated his question about the heliobi.
Xianyu glanced at the quest log.
[Xianzhou · Yaoqing] [You are Yaoqing's general] [Your people regard you as their faith] [The heliobi wreaking havoc aboard the Xianzhou are suffering one defeat after another] [Can you lead the people of Yaoqing to immortality?]
Right, this batch of mobs was almost cleared out.
He opened the system map and searched for the heliobi, then circled the corresponding locations on the map on his desk and pushed it toward his UR.
"These are the only places with heliobi left. Capture them alive if you can. Maybe we can bottle them up and use them to generate electricity or something... Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't. Your safety comes first."
Lan accepted the map without questioning how Xianyu had learned the enemy's whereabouts.
It seemed that, for the general, every problem in the universe could be solved with ease.
As a superior, he assigned his subordinates tasks in simple, clear terms.
As an enemy, he was an invincible god who overlooked nothing.
It was as though there was no secret in the universe he did not know.
