Chapter 402
However, at this critical moment, Paimon hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself.
After entering the interior of the Delusion Factory, besides the guards, there were many more mechanical traps.
While Lumine was irritable and angry, she still managed to dodge quite a few well-hidden mechanical traps.
After taking out another Fatui patrol, Lumine and Paimon discovered traces of a large amount of Crystal Marrow.
"Are these all materials for making Delusions? There are so many, and they look so familiar."
Paimon furrowed her little brow, deep in thought, when suddenly a flash of inspiration struck her mind.
"I remember now, wait, these Crystal Marrows couldn't have been shipped from Ritou, could they? Could it be that the Kanjou Commission..."
Thinking of the Kanjou Commission's past policy of confiscating Crystal Marrow, their behavior of squeezing the International Trade Association, and the words they used to deceive the two of them.
Paimon felt a chill run down her spine.
"What is this?"
While she was lost in her own thoughts, she noticed Lumine seemed to have found something on the defeated Fatui captain, so she quickly leaned over.
It turned out to be an order and instruction from someone named "Palace Monitor" — Natashka.
"The current situation of the Inazuma civil war is still unclear. The longer the war drags on, the more favorable it is for us. We must expand the demand for Delusions among the resistance army, incite the intensity of the war, and promote the determination of both commanders for a protracted war."
"I specifically request all colleagues to assist in the work of Second-Class Naval Officer Nathan. Cut off the hope of the Watatsumi Island army for a quick victory. If there is an accident, even if it means helping Officer Nathan escape, we must not leave any pretext for Fatui infiltration for either side!"
"This is a major matter to ensure the supply of Delusions is secure. Remember! Remember!"
After reading the orders, the two were unable to recover for a long time.
"There really is a traitor among the resistance and the Shogunate army!" Paimon said, filled with righteous indignation.
War kills people. For their own ulterior motives, the Fatui wantonly provoked the war, adding a new layer of hatred between Narukami Island and Watatsumi Island, which should have gotten along well.
Truly despicable!
Lumine was silent; the Fatui's methods were extremely vile and had never changed.
In Mondstadt, they colluded with the Lawrence clan. In Liyue, because the Liyue Qixing were too upright to be corrupted, perhaps it was also because Tartaglia was relatively open and aboveboard.
In the end, when they reached Inazuma, they became even more unscrupulous.
"We must go and stop them! There must be a Fatui Harbinger presiding over the big picture!"
This was Lumine's experience.
Whether in Mondstadt or Liyue, Harbingers had appeared to carry out missions.
La Signora and Tartaglia.
She wondered who would be in Inazuma.
Holding this thought, the two put away the orders and set off forward.
Not long after, just as they entered an empty room without any vigilance, the door behind them suddenly closed automatically, locking them inside.
At the same time, a voice came from a corner in the shadows.
"The guards outside reported that someone had broken in. I didn't expect it to be you."
