Chapter 172 Shiraki: You agreed to this yourself.
"Your reputation is well-known, and I'm very worried about you."
Shiraki looked at the professor and said very frankly.
The doctor's expression did not change after hearing this.
He has a very bad reputation outside, and he knows this, and it is true.
He wasn't surprised that Shiraki knew this.
"Therefore, I need to use some methods on you to prevent myself from being tricked."
Shiraki looked at the professor and bluntly stated that he was afraid of being tricked, so he wanted to keep some backup plans.
Without hesitation, the doctor nodded and agreed immediately.
In any case, the worst outcome for him is just losing a slice.
"Okay, I thought you wouldn't agree."
"But now that you've agreed, I'll begin."
Seeing that the doctor had readily agreed without even asking what he wanted to do, Shiraki revealed a strange smile.
For some reason, even though he knew he would be fine, the doctor still felt a sudden jolt in his heart whenever he saw Shiraki's smile again.
"What exactly happened? Could there be something wrong with this slide?"
The doctor frowned, unable to figure out where the problem lay.
Just as the doctor was frowning in thought, Shiraki walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Alright, now I can confidently hand over the task to you."
"That's good..."
Snapping out of his thoughts, the doctor hadn't even had a chance to speak.
Suddenly, his eyes widened, and his expression beneath the mask twisted as if he had encountered something incredibly unbelievable and terrifying.
Just now, the Doctor, who thought nothing had happened, suddenly realized that his main body, which was in a secluded corner of the Winter Kingdom, as well as all his other slices except this one, were simultaneously locked onto by an extremely powerful aura.
Moreover, the doctor discovered that even the slices he had created as a precaution, which had "gone out of control," as well as the slices that had no connection to him whatsoever, were also locked at the same time.
The doctor discovered that, apart from the slice in front of Shiraki, all other slices had been locked.
If Bai Mu wanted to, he could absolutely die on the spot.
"As expected of you, Dotore. You're willing to agree to such demanding conditions just to conduct research."
Shiraki patted the professor on the shoulder, his eyes revealing a hint of appreciation.
"Ahem, Your Majesty, you flatter me. I will certainly not disappoint Your Majesty's expectations and will do my best to fulfill my duties as the God of Righteousness."
The doctor slightly twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a very forced smile.
At the same time, a feeling called "fear" quietly began to grow in the doctor's heart.
Since gaining the ability to "create slices," the fear in the doctor's heart has gradually disappeared.
However, just now, Shiraki allowed him to regain this emotion.
Just now, the Doctor learned that Shiraki could have killed him, and he was powerless to do anything about it.
Because every move of all the slices was under Shiraki's control, even if he wanted to do something, he was powerless to do so.
At this moment, the doctor felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
This feeling of being completely at someone else's mercy is truly awful.
"Hehe, there's no need to make that face. After all, I did this with your permission."
Looking at the doctor, who seemed noticeably different from before, Shiraki said with a smile.
Although the mask concealed his face, Shiraki couldn't discern the doctor's expression.
But it's not hard to guess. The doctor's expression right now is probably similar to Xiao's when he saw Zhongli die on the spot.
"Don't worry, as long as you do well, I'll keep your life safe."
Finally, fearing that the doctor might not be able to bear it, Shiraki still offered him a word of comfort.
Before leaving, Shiraki reminded him:
"When the pilot of the God of the Machine arrives, I will come over to check on the results."
"Don't let me down then."
As soon as Bai Mu finished speaking, the Doctor noticed that the slices he had placed in Liyue were shattered by an unknown force.
...
"Sigh... I've really messed up this time."
After Shiraki left, the doctor slumped onto the sofa behind him, his face, hidden beneath the mask, revealing an expression that looked like he was constipated.
......
"Where is Nasita? I'll take her to Ningguang right away."
“It just so happens that Ningguang has a lot of things to deal with right now, so Nasida can go there and learn a lot from her.”
After returning home, Shiraki did not find Naxida downstairs, so he asked the Great Tree King sitting behind the counter.
"She's upstairs. Go check on her in my room."
The Great Compassion Tree King pointed upstairs, gesturing to Bai Mu.
...
"Nasita, have you forgotten why you came to Liyue in the first place?"
Grabbing Narcida by the back of the neck, Shiraki snatched the Liyue module from her hand, which she was still using to farm.
"My mom said that after I came to Liyue, she would give me a Liyue module, so I came."
Naxida lowered her head and said softly.
She didn't dare look into Shiraki's eyes at all.
"hehe..."
Bai Mu gave a cold laugh.
Upon hearing Bai Mu's cold laughter, a hint of panic flashed in Naxida's eyes.
"Bai...Bai Mu, what do you want to do?"
"I don't want to do anything special, I just want to take you to learn how the Liyue Sept governs Liyue."
He put away Nasita's Liyue module, and then Shiraki gave her a divine crystal.
"You can use this to contact me from now on. As for the Liyue module, I'll keep it here for now and return it to you later."
"what?"
Nasida pouted, clearly dissatisfied.
"What? You won't agree?"
"That's easy. Let your mother decide on your Liyue module issue, how about that?"
Seeing that Nasita was unhappy with his decision, Bai Mu directly took out the Great Tree King.
As soon as the Great Compassion Tree King appeared, Naxida immediately became obedient.
"No, no, no, Shiraki, I promise you, okay?"
Nasita waved her hands repeatedly, saying that Bai Mu was only temporarily taking away the Liyue module, but if it were the Great Tree King, the outcome would be hard to say.
If it were the Great Tree King instead, Narcida would not only have her Liyue Module taken away, but she would also likely get beaten up.
"Alright, your mother is still alive and well, don't make that face."
"Don't be sad. Once you've learned enough, I'll return the Liyue module to you."
